Mikey, I really like serendipity, end of story.

I think you should make this keyboard theme default though: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10633404&postcount=2263

It matches everything much better, IMO.

If not, no big deal, simply my opinion!

Great job, truly, this represents a lot of time spent and a lot of hard work, great job!

Hi Mike,

Curious. If you can removed Samsung Apps from Settings is it possible to put in Stay Awake in the USB Settings?
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
It slows down when you move from "What's wrong?" to "Hmm... what can I screw around with". :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
That's why the 1.6 update is named '1.5_to_1.6'. In order to go from 1.5 to 1.6 you need to be at 1.5.

At least someone gets it. :cool:

Flashed Paragon, didn't like it. So far, nothing I've flashed comes remarkably close to Serendipity. I've thought about flashing Assonance just to see where you've been; I'm fascinated by the quality of work you are doing on these ROMS. Thank you. It keeps my occupied.
[Captivate Android Development] DrCruelty:
Great ROM Mikey, as usual. Fast, smooth, and stable.

My only issue comes from the 1288 OC. It's fine with 1200 kernels with the right UV, but 1288 it will freeze under heavy load no matter what I do. Used to have the same issues with SeterioN's kernels. I wish voltage control could let me limit to 1200. 1000mhz for now while I figure out what I'm going to do.

Before you clear it, go to settings and uncheck "use wireless networks" under location and security. After you clear the data reboot your phone and recheck the boxes. Then test sats, first lock may take a while.

I have watched mine, and it scans like that, even when hooked to a WIFI router and working. Seems to me that would be burning battery. But I don't know what it is really doing, and don't expect that can be changed.

RE BLN..

I repeatedly see folks thinking something is wrong with their phone due to BLN. Maybe the default should be with it off, then people who know about it and want it can turn it on. Results in less clutter and support on the thread. (Although I don't recall turning it off, and I don't have it working on my phone....but I'm on v3.5.2. Maybe it was off by default then, and is on now.)
[Captivate Android Development] adamskub:
I just noticed that too! I hope it can be changed because that is for sure eating at battery :eek:

Normal behavior my htc does the same
[Captivate Android Development] adamskub:
Ya I was actually just thinking about that this morning. What if it came default off, as the first time I installed a ROM and had no idea why it was doing that. I think it wouldn't confuse newer people as much, imo

But otherwise it isn't that had to turn it off as you said, either recovery or bln.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
I am burning ~5% per hour with 4.3 and Speedmod with the stock modem, which on my high use phone is still pretty awesome.

When I was running your modem, I had lots of battery issues. I ended up with JL2 and HSDPA turned off to get any sort of battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Ended up with 20% drain last night. All I did was keep wi-fi on and set the sleep policy for it to shut down when screen is off.

With it manually shut down I get great battery life.

Is this a ROM or kernel issue?

Running Serendipity 4.3 and FB2 with KPI modem.

NM: I read on FB2 thread it it is a known issue for some. I guess I qualify as "some". Still loving the FB2 kernel and will stick with manual wi-fi operation --- not a big deal.
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
I charged to 100 last night and left it sitting over night. I use hardcore's K12Q-t5 kernel and the KP1 modem. I woke up to 93% battery left and looked at battery usage.

[Captivate Android Development] LimaI896:
Yeah you gotta do a full backup n reset with odin. Basically you gotta do what the OP says which is how you first installed the rom.
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
Coming from 3.5 I think you need to do a wipe install and not just an update.

[Captivate Android Development] dangerdan:
I still can't figure out why I keep losing service gradually over the day. As soon as I first install this ROM or any 2.2 ROM for that matter it'll work for the first few hours and then I'll lose service completely and I'll have to revert back to stock.

Does anyone know why this keeps happening? Am I supposed to do something different like selecting a different device in ROM Manager instead of the Captivate when installing the ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Use Titanium Backup for apps and their associated data.

Missing shutdown menu

I flashed from Serendipity 4.0 to 4.3 (with the included steps in between) and now I have no shutdown menu (Reboot, Download, Recovery, etc.). It just vibrates like a force close. I have to hold in the power button and then it restarts.

Does anyone know of a fix or must I reflash back to stock and back to full 4.3?

Thank you for your help in advance!
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Nothing surprising about it at all to me. Everybody has a learning curve. Somebody is probably going to read this and say "What is BLN?" ;)
[Captivate Android Development] hauj0bb:
I've run into a curious issue, and I'm hoping that some of you here can shed some light on this.

Twice now my device has locked up while in sleep mode, having to pull the battery and replace it to turn the device back on. This is unlike the notorious 'Shutdown' issue that some (including myself) have experienced with some of the earlier to-market devices (had my switched out in November).

I haven't experienced this problem with any other ROM, and I've only had Serendipity 4.x installed on my phone for maybe a week. I've not dropped, or mistreated the device in that time either.

Has anyone else experienced this issue or anything similar? Might it be kernel related?

I've been extremely happy with this rom, and I'd like to not have to flash to something different.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Did you load any themes or different battery mods on the phone?
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:

[Captivate Android Development] crupp:
Mickey- Could you take a look at this when you get a chance. I can not figure out how to get the "smudge" removed from the top of calendar. This is my favorite calendar. If anyone else has any ideas (other than use a different calendar :) ) Let me know. Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I've started that exact test with various modems. My theory is that which ever one uses least battery in this mode, will use less for comparative various uses. (Of course show knows?....). I have WiFi on all night; have not put on any programs to throttle anyting; and have email updates, weather updates, etc, all working.

Like you, I just put KP1 on. Using 3.5.2 ROM with stock kernel. (Ultimately, I will do the same test after putting on Firebird2 too).

I do find that WiFi drops multiple times over the course of the evening on all of the various 2.2 ROM/Modem combinations. (Most peopel won't notice these short drops. I have Tasker writing to a variable every time it drops so I can get a count)

With TlJL3,batt lost 4.266% / Hour. WIFI Drops-> over night 40. (On one ROM some time ago, TLJL3 didn't drop but 1 or 2 times a night)

With UGJL2 batt lost 1.72% / Hour. WIFI Drops -> over night Forgot to get count. (I got 22 hours on it before running out).

With KP1, batt lost .92% / Hour. WIFI Drops-> over night 12. Right now, I have 41% left, and phone has been on 14 HR/20Min. I had GPS on tracking in Navigation this morning for 40 min (but screen was off...testing Nav voice announcement).

Speed was relatively close to the same on all of them for up/down loads.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
This KP1 modem interests me. You say you have it working on Serendipity with no issues?
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Yes. Only issues are the short WIFI drops, which again, you probably wouldn't notice (and I have on every 2.2 ROM/Modem combination I have tested).

I just put it on last night, so not a whole lot of time on it yet. I did make a call to my wife, and she said I sound good.

Like all modems. I see various people who say it is best thing ever, and others who say it is bad. I suspect which kernel is used makes a difference. I see you are on Firebird2 kernel (which I read good stuff about). Ultimately ,I plan to test that kernel with it.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Do you have a link to the modem? I looked in the Modems thread, but didn't see it.
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
I have used KP1 for the last few days and it is at least tied at the top for me with JK4...the only thing I can't test is bluetooth so unless it causes problems with that I would suggest giving it a shot and see how it performs in your area. (Central Alabama here)

WickedNite,

I used 7Zip to open the 4.1->4.2 upgrade zip, dropped in the old phone.apk from Serendipity 3.53, into system/apps overwriting the existing file, and used Rom Manager to install the modified 4.2 upgrade zip. So far, so good.

Thanks for the tip. If there is a better way to do this please LMK.
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
I did 1 and 2 even switched to kp1 modem and still a no go. Can't be an outage because I've been receiving them just can't send. Im at 31% don't think I can reflash. I guess its my chance to try another ROM out, thanks for the reply.
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
You could try resetting your APN settings to default to make sure nothing got screwed up there between modem flashes...
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
Thanks for the suggestion, still can't send after resetting APN. Im curious, what could've done this? Hmm maybe a different mms.apk?

[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
That's fine as long as it is working properly. What I did is just extracting the one from 3.5.3 then I used Root Explorer to push it to /system/apps/. You can do what you did or you can do what I did. It depends on you, as long as it works. :)

I wanted to give this ROM a try but when I installed it there was no support for an Outlook email account. Has that changed? Does this ROM support Outlook email?

Currently I am using Assonance... and I love it. The base email app is much better than the stock version and a lot of other ROMs. I had to resort to Touchdown but have since stopped using it because it will kill your account and battery when your password changes. Ours changes every 60 days...
