Scared me too - mostly because it woke up the wife who was sleeping peacefully next to me. I had done the back to stock stuff downstairs and thought it was safe to come back to bed to finish set up. Doh!

OH well. For those who (like me) prefer the stealth mode of silent boots and shut downs, you can set it to silent in sgs tools.

As always Adam, thanks for all of your hard work!

Hello,

I am on 3.5.... have not upgraded yet to 4.1

Would someone be so kind as to let know me if the animated gif link below works in the current version?

This is my local weather station and I use this link all the time, but there is no animation in the 3.5 version.

http://belo.bimedia.net/KMOV/weather/animated-loops/radar-northwest.gif

I saw a previous post on 1/8, the only one on the subject I could find, were animated gif files did not work for that user also.

thanks for your help

[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
not a complaint - just an observation / bug report...

I flashed 4.1 this morning and notice that the haptic feedback on the home button is not working. I thought that this was a bug that had long since been resolved and so was surprised to see it resurface.

I notice that there is a haptic fix zip on the first page. Will this fix it? How do I apply it - through CWM or..?

Thanks in advance for your help.

[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
Adam, am I the only one that notices the lower sound volume on the earpiece speaker between this 2.2.1 firmware and the Firefly 1.5, 2.2 firmware. I've tried Galaxy Tuner that boost the sound, and the Vooodo App that helps the headphone jack sound and just can't seem to get the earpiece volume to an acceptable level on any rom using the 2.2.1 firmware using the same SpeedMod kernel on both. Thanks Adam for creating suching a good rom that I can't use because of the sound issue. For you young guys that still have great hearing, enjoy it while you can. Are you going to hope you bring Firefly up to the same standards?
[Captivate Android Development] gathrottle:
Adam you are the man!! Just flashed 4.01 and it's awesome. Been running firefly but you are right when you say this is your best yet. Keep it up.
[Captivate Android Development] cobeebs:
So I'm running FF1.5 which I flashed over Cog 2.3b8. I'm a Mac user - don't have access to a PC, so I've not been doing Odin FTS and MC.

I want to try Phoenix, but beginning to get concerned about continually flashing over and not doing a master clear.

I have a CWM back up of a stock ROM. Could I do a flash back to stock that way, then do a Wipe Data/Factory Reset from CWM?

Would that accomplish the same thing as Odin FTS and MC?

any thoughts appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] Kizzmiazz:
4.1 is awesome Adam. I'm loving it my friend.

Can you or someone please upload the 3.5 or 4.0.3 video player, I usually get it my self but I flashed while driving to work cause I had to see it lol

What happened to the animations? I LOVED the one where things kinda zoomed in from some corner. Now its just the default ones. Is there any way I can put it in?

Well, I'm completely frustrated..I've been trying since last night to copy Phoenix 4.0.3 (update.zip) from my pc to the SD card folder, but for some reason it will not copy because my pc says the drive/folder is 'write protected' (???). This has never happened before while flashing/copying files via USB. I've tried everything I know - re-booted, restored, restarted pc, checked settings...NOTHING will un-write-protect the internal SD...Grrr.

I've been a electronics/computer tech for over 20 years(!) but only modding my Cap. for 4 weeks, and I thought I had it down...but evidently NOT!

Would someone PLEASE assist this old nOOb dumb-ass in getting the SD out of write-protect(?)...or did I screw the pooch, somehow??

As always...gratefully...Chuck

Have you tried root explorer? It gives you the option of R/O and R/W. You may have to copy to an external card then run there or copy to internal and run.

[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
I heard(somewhere, I just can't remember where) that some people were having issues with FB2. My first thought is to flash the stock kernel, see if that does anything for you
[Captivate Android Development] 1tontomato:
Don't flash the CWM stock nandroid it doesn't back up the kernal or the modem only the rom and will most likely give you trouble going from a 2.2 back to a 2.1. I have a Mac also and here's what I usually do. Once you get to a rom, any rom that has CWM built into the kernal go into mounts and storage and there are options formatting all sorts of areas format all of them I'm pretty sure this actually formats not just wipe clear dalvik cashe "factory fresh" place to be. Then under mounts and storage mount USB copy over the new rom of choice and any rom that you know works as a rudundant just incase things don't go right flash this after. Then just install zip from sd card.

This has worked for me, but I still have an old lap top with odin for just in case used only once when I tired to CWM from 2.2 back to 2.1 incompatble kernal and modem. As always back up everything and pay close attention to TIBU restore causes a lot of headaches if your not careful. Hope this helps.
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
My god Adam, you are a machine! I figured you'd take the day off after yesterday. But NO, here you are again :)

You are the flash addict leader, and we bow to you, great king
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
I would suggest to use which ever one works best for your device. Some are able to handle the constant overclock without things going sideways. Mine will, but I've found there is a level of instability and for me the benefit/problems arent great enough, so I have chosen to stay away from the OC kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] Emil9727:

I've flashed over my roms for the last month. Haven't gone to stock. In this month I've tried every rom out there almost. Even the new 2.2.1 base. Can't remember the name off the top of my head. I always do the factory reset in recovery. It doesn't format your internal SD. I don't know about your external as I don't have one. I've had absolutely zero problems. I hope this info helps you guys always asking about going back to stock. I will post if I ever have any problems. And Adam as always great rom. Yours and serendipity are the best out there for the more non stock feel. DG does a great job also.

has voodoo sound claimed its first victim? I think its more likely an audio driver got corrupted or something. He should try flashing back to stock and see if it works then.

I could be wrong but I think that refers to the home button haptic fix and not the gingerbread keyboard haptic. The home button haptic was fixed a few versions back so the cwm fix isn't needed anymore.

As far as the gingerbread haptic, I think it's a well known problem but not fixed yet.
[Captivate Android Development] gjgcomputers:
Thanks for the advise, I know that the kernel will allways depends on the equipment, and there will be a lot of things that will influence the performance of the kernel such as the temperature of the board and battery, etc. etc.

Anyway, I'll keep reading and learning about kernels and maybe I'll find the one that I will stick to it. But for know I'll stick with the speedmod that came with the ROM or the Firebird2 (I'm just plain scared of the OverClock kernels and I install the reoriented_ball by mistake when I find it here in XDA in the speedmod forums posts).

Also I've read a little about the Captivate's processor and in theory, it could be overclock to 1.6ghz (but the risk of frying the equipment is very high). Also I read that the voltage used to overclock the processor to 1.4ghz is the same as to overclock to 1.2ghz so I'll keep avoiding the OC.

The two player I find in my fresh wipe-stall of 4.1 are not the player in question

OK, I just got my replacement Captivate (shutoff issue) and I never backed up my /efs or Android ID on the first (because I never knew about them). Just wanted to go over what I have done to check.

1. Rooted

2. Added Android ID and backed up

3. Root Explorer

4. Copied /efs and the Android ID backup to my PC for safe keeping

5. Removed Android ID and Root Explorer, installed Clockwork Rom

6. Updated and backed up the ROM (booted into recovery and backed up)

7. Copied backup zip to PC to keep safe.

I can now install a custom ROM right without fear of missing any steps?
