hi

Is it ok to flash this rom?

i m on TWICS and the battery life is terrible.. please guide...
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
You won't be able to flash it directly

go to this thread and pick one with a cwm kernel, then you should be able to flash.

[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
Like jde said, I would be going back to stock on this flash myself. Phoenix will amaze you with the battery life. Probably the best I had ever had on the Captivate

If you need a link to Phoenix(Not sure if the links are good anymore) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12100225/Phoenix_Unleashed_JS8.zip
[Captivate Android Development] ashok.antony:
The thread title says Update in Progress and hence I have usually skipped this. Today came in to see there are 100s of pages. Is the ROM ready to be installed? Is this ICS ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
No, it's still the great Froyo ROM. It never got updated to ICS
[Captivate Android Development] sa1yan:
I don't think there's ever going to be an update. But I think we are all hoping for the OP to surprise us ;)
[Captivate Android Development] ssallen1971:
The d/l link is not working?
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:

[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
Congratulations kangi for the recognised contributor title.

Also i have Phoenix rom file with me,in case the download expires again.
[Captivate Android Development] s1lverN1p:
so many pages to scan but thought I'd throw this out there.

-having troubles getting all text messages

-tapping phone icon then contacts, it glitches out back to home screen

-tapping phone icon then first few numbers, it glitches out back to home screen

-should my phone id change in titanium backup pro?
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
Did you do a complete wipe before flashing? Which version did you flash? Did you restore anything in TiBu, and if so, what?
[Captivate Android Development] abteer:
Cool. I'll give it a go. It makes sense though because I had a G1 and never had to flash back to stock and I probably flashed that thing a million and a half times.
[Captivate Android Development] redeuxx:
Is there a way to upgrade from the previous version to 2.0 without wiping?
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Adam, if we upgraded to 2.0 (firebird) last night.. or early this morning I should say... what's the process for reflashing this updated version? Can we disable lagfix and just flash over?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
There is now, it is much safer. Go for it.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Yup, just flash right over.
[Captivate Android Development] sourkrawt:
Does the Matrix Reloaded theme on Phoenix-hq work with 2.0?
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
Yeah if you've been around these captivate forums a while you may recall that people used to tell you you had to take your SIM card out before flashing or you'd get battery drain. I flogged that as BS practice too. I never see anyone saying to do that as a flashing prerequisite now. Maybe I was wrong and it's just that things have changed, but I doubt it. It's just part of the voodoo when you're dealing with little boxes doing strange and wonderful things we can't see beneath their shiny plastic shells.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Give me a second I will check and tell you.

Android keyboard

Adam, whats the name of the android keyboard on 1.5? I'm trying to put it on 2.0.

Thanks, love this ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] Chargerdude70:
Adam...you had it in Ver1.0 but not in anything lately. Is it possible for you to get the numeric dialer tones for us that would like to have custom tones when dialing? Or direct us in a direction on how to do it ourselves?
[Captivate Android Development] AlsoNamedBort:
Torrent might be a good idea

Adam and PHQ admins,

Earlier in the thread someone mentioned starting torrents. That might not be a bad idea. If you host the torrent file on phoenix-hq.com, and request that nobody else host/distribute the torrent file, you can still maintain a download count and it will greatly reduce the bandwidth imposed on your site (with ROMs running 160+MB, you'll be transmitting a lot of data.) Then for all but the XDA F5ers it will likely make for a much faster download...

Anyway, if you did post a torrent, I'd seed. Something to consider, not sure what kind of bandwidth costs you're looking at from your hosting company...

Downloading Firebird now, should be flashing soon. Cross your fingers for me that my corporate e-mail client works properly on this ROM!
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Yup, works just fine.

I am in the process of adding a few more themes to the add-on page.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I will look into adding the option for torrents. I know not everybody is familiar with how to use torrents, so I will still leave the server hosted files up and just share a torrent link (if I get it up and running).

Thanks for the idea.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I don't really like the idea of putting this out as torrent. I will think about it, but am leaning towards not doing so. I just don't like the idea.
[Captivate Android Development] damnitdave:
Awsome work adam... have this bad boy paired up with hardcore's kernel and its running good... they should make a double thumbs up thanks button for you
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Have you tried the FireBird kernel. It has some of the Hardcore patches in it!
[Captivate Android Development] indomikey:
Flashed this morning, so far everything works, including all the fixes.

Gtalk is back in, thanks for sneaking that one through. (Will take GPS out for a ride in abit, but locks in slightly slower than 1.5, same accuracy on tests inside house)

Awesome work, so far battery life much better than 1.5 for me for some reason. Better flash maybe? I don't even need to turn off auto rotate yet.

Only thing I miss from the A word back when...is the screen animations. But I assume that would take more time to complete.

Thanks again to Adam and his Team.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I can see why.

It might be hard to do version control after a few versions have been released.

Those will just keep floating around until people stop seeding.

yeah...I will talk to you privately if I come up with anything.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Sounds good, I appreciate it.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Haptic on AB's

I'm curious why the haptic feedback has been reduced or eliminated on the AB's?

When I press the home button there is no feedback. When I press the menu, back or search button there is minute feedback. I like it at it's stock setting. Is this something I can change?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
menu > settings > sounds. check the bottom to enable feedback and vibration intensity
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Home button haptic is a known issue on the 2.2.1 firmware. But, go into system/setting/sound/vibration intensity and crank it up if you like.

Sicko;)
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Hey adam,

was the themed market included in the ROM? just checking because I still have the same old green :(

Maybe a bad flash?
[Captivate Android Development] mi04se1:
I went to flash 2.0 this morning and also got the aborted message. Redownloading firebird now.
[Captivate Android Development] lanisan:
Recind 2x..

It's turned up to max in settings and still nearly no sensation on those AB's .. guess if it's known nothin to do but wait for now :)

Any word on the KB in 1.5? can I just pull that from 1.5 and throw it into 2.0? I REEEEALLY liked that one :)
[Captivate Android Development] aintwaven:
Whats the easiest was to change menu color? The contrast is tough on my old eyes.
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
I thought of that earlier, and I forgot what I thought about a few minutes later... DOH! I have the same Green market as well.
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
There is no real easy way except to flash a different theme. You can see the themes that are tested for Phoenix 2.0 here: http://www.phoenix-hq.com/addons.html
[Captivate Android Development] karier13:
I was previously running all versions of Cognition until I tried Phoenix 1.0 and now 1.5. I just wanted to verify if I need to go back to stock and then flash 2.0 or if I can flash 2.0 over 1.5. And do I need to disable lagfix. On early versions of cog I did the revert to stock but the last couple just flashed over old. Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] crupp:
is there a way to use the drop down notification from 1.5?
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
This one I refuse to go along with...namely because you can trash the sim card when you flash a different rom...Lots of people have had this happen and it (as far as I have read since owning this phone) has nothing or very little to do with battery drain..but just messing up your sim..I don't know everything that is on them..but I do know if they get messed up at all..your phone won't work.Lot of people have never had a issue flashing a new rom with it in..but quite a few have had problems...and it really is no big deal to pull it and the sd card when flashing..unless your just flashing on the move..

I just tried doing a back up from recovery..and made it after 3.5 hours of working at it...and now am back to stock..http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10322290&postcount=1471

Time to read up on these kernels a little more...and see which one I want to use first...To over clock..or not to over clock...that is the question...hmmmm

Thanks Adam...for the choice my friend

Mac
[Captivate Android Development] shiftystylee:
Are you guys did disabling lagfixes before flashing themes, out going right over them?
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
Adam says flash to stock because of many changes in the framework. I say if old files are being left behind then something went horribly wrong anyway and I'd rather have old Phoenix 1.5 files than old 2.1 stock files. Do what you want, but flashing to stock is, IMO, a silly practice with no real benefits and plenty of risks.
[Captivate Android Development] Mastamind89:
In an attempt to install 2.0 w/ GB, in CW .zip(bad)...failed/aborted. I'm not sure what happened. I guess I'll redownload the ROM and if t hat doesn't work I'll try another one.
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
Recovery works just fine with ext4. There's no reason to disable lagfix for that.
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
The original uploads were bad (probably used the wrong compression scheme) so, yeah, re-downloading will probably fix it.
[Captivate Android Development] BoostedSR20:
Just flashed 2.0 w/1.4.7 right over 1.5, no problems. Restoring with TiBu now.

All I did was CWM flash from SD card, chose wipe, and go. I've been flashing to old stock w/odin forever, I really don't see myself doing that anymore.
[Captivate Android Development] AlsoNamedBort:
D'oh?

Ok, downloaded this morning so it should be the good package, the 2.0 firebird (Phoenix_Rising_2.0.zip), via the usual routine, and now when I'm flashing the ROM:

[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Yes, it is just a single file that needs changing.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:

[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
It doesn't work. Framework mismatch.
[Captivate Android Development] AlsoNamedBort:
I am re-downloading a second time, because of that failure and the fact that 3-button has never worked on my phone, I had to use my jig (that's 3 times, now) to flash stock again. I will compare the MD5s of the two d/l's to see if they're different, if they are not, I guess I'll try Glitterballs next...

Can we PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE start posting MD5s for the ROM zip files?
[Captivate Android Development] darkovin:
I had the same thing happen with the GB kernal version. (Wanted to try it as I have never used gliterballs...)

Luckily I had also DL'd the FB & Set1.4.7 versions also. Had no problem with the FB from within recovery....
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Update and than lunch

I updated the Glitter ball version with the most stable of the kernels he offers. He PM'd me to let me know that the other versions may have some issues. Sorry guys. Unforeseen.
[Captivate Android Development] Mastamind89:
Thanks ;) Glitterballs, I downloaded it from the thread this morning and for my second attempt, I downloaded it from phoenix-hq

Edit- Looks like I'll try another ROM
[Captivate Android Development] BoostedSR20:

I thought the puzzle lock screen was back in 2.0.
[Captivate Android Development] cgm8:
I also has Installation aborted with Glitterballs version downloaded this morning. Anyone has luck with this version?
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
You may be right about that. I don't ever see any posts about trashed SIM cards, but I suppose it could happen and I'd be interested in hearing a theory of how that works. I'm guessing it would involve the modem.bin changing. Of course a trashed sim card is a lot less serious than a trashed phone. The point is, they insisted it was the cause of battery drain should always be done and now you rarely, if ever, hear removing the sim card recommended as standard flashing procedure. Either way, it's no big deal, because it's not like removing the sim card is particularly dangerous (although one might argue that the removal and insertion is just as likely to kill it).

One day my foot got caught on the usb cable with flashing to stock.I got a computer with lines going to a phone.I thought my phone was f-d up. I pulled out the battery held down both volume buttons.put the battery back in with my usb to in my computer.while still hold the volume buttons.I put the usb into my phone held for 3 seconds bam download mode. this is best if u usb is plugged in first into the computer
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Just depends on where in the process communication is lost.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I just updated the theme to v5. It works with 2.0. All those screenshots are from Phoenix 2.0 running cosmic. Hit refresh a couple of times. If the problem persists PM me and I will hook u up.

EDIT: I know why u couldnt download. I renamed the file wrong (v5.0 instead of v5) my bad, it is fixed now.
[Captivate Android Development] warri:
There is a chance that you will come across Kernels that differ from the one that came with your ROM. Some kernels have other lag-fixes, and features just like a rom. However, a Kernel is the underlying Software that tells your hardware how to behave, for this reason you can flash a kernel with out effecting your ROM choice. (Although it might add lagfixes that increase ROM performance)

I for one am running Phoenix with Hardcore's SpeedMOD Kernel. I personally dont see the need for OC, and prefer Hardcore's Modified ULF with more tweaks.

To Do this, just flash your ROM, then Flash the kernel.. done ;)
[Captivate Android Development] stevenperry:
I am happy to test the latest release. I sent you a PM with my email address. May be good timing as I was about to flash 1.0. Would much prefer to flash the beta instead.

Thanks for the opportunity to help and for all the great work you are doing for everyone.

Will donate as soon as I am able.

Boot Animation

CWM flashable versions of the Operation Phoenix boot animation.

These are smaller files than the previous versions (I took out some redundant frames, d'oh), but they should look identical. I also fixed the slightly off aspect ratio (so I guess not identical, but better). If you want to install "by hand" just open the zip and pull bootanimation.zip from /system/media.

Small 10fps Version Download (9MB)

Medium 16fps Version Download (14MB)

Large 30fps Version Download (27MB)

Bizarre. Second download, same as the first. As I mentioned, i had to jig, then flash stock with Odin, so I master-clear'd again, copied the files over. Then tried one more time, fully expecting failure, but it took. The apply operation was also different, it took longer to format and less time to copy files. Very, very odd.

Oh well, lagfix just finished applying, so I've got some work to do. Thanks to everyone once again.

[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
It's easy to do. Had you not had a working download mode combo you would have needed a jig. People will say, well that's your own fault, you weren't careful, user error, etc. They may be right, but we all screw up occasionally. I was flashing my phone with odin once and turned away to do something then completely forgot I was in the middle of a flash and picked up my phone, yanked out the USB cable out and started to walk to another room when I realized what I had just done. It was a stupid thing to do. I'm human; sometimes I do stupid things.

Curious to see if anyone knows of a keyboard like the one in 1.5 that works with 2.0. I really liked the android keyboard and want to keep using something like that.

Kernels - Can we get links to *just* the kernels? I already flashed FB and I find it laggy on my phone. Voodoo has always seemed laggier than set's. I'd rather not reinstall an entire rom (unless necessary)

[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
if the update.zip you used is just for root, it won't flash Clockwork. and having the program installed on the phone doesn't mean you have flashed clockwork either.

I've attached the update.zip I use for clockwork. give that one a try, I've been using it for months.
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
Well, I don't know. You said, "...still not getting an option to install b/c it goes straight to standard system recovery..." That sounds like you need to hit reinstall packages (two consecutive times) so you'll get the option to install a zip from the sdcard.
