i did this one...

Green_Battery_Mod_A_V02.zip (3.95 MB, 202 views)

is that not right? How can i replace that zip with another one if my phone keeps soft reseting and i dont get a chance to mount it?
[Captivate Android Development] ChanceM:
bfara83 and scolth are you both using the steam recovery? I converted the install scripts to Edify I don't personally use the steam recovery it may be an incompatibility with steam.

Edit: Then should be an option in the recovery to mount the usb. or you can use ADB push when you are at the recovery menu.

What version of Serendipity are you on?

ChanceM
[Captivate Android Development] scolth:
Im using 3.5.3 the latest, i realized i just put the wrong version of the bat mod on. But i cant put the other one on because the damn thing keeps rebooting and it doesnt give me a chance to mount. Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] ChanceM:
pull that battery. Then put it back in and hold the volume keys down and power on. At recovery look for mount usb or use ADB push to put the correct one on.
[Captivate Android Development] scolth:
Ok I figured it out, I was able to go into the recovery mode using the power/volume buttons. From there i was able to mount my phone and remove the bad zip and replace it with the correct batt zip. WORKS GREAT NOW!! Learn somthing new every day lol, thanks guys
[Captivate Android Development] scolth:
Im loving this rom, trying to turn my friend on it but he's a douche and says he doesnt like the green accents
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
I believe you need v04 for the 3.5.3.

I downloaded Blue_Battery_Mod_C_V04 and am trying to install it from Steam Recovery and I keep getting E:Can't open /mnt/sdcard/Blue_Battery_Mod_C_V04.zip (Status 2). I've tried it on both the internal and micro sd. I went into the File Manager settings and made sure everything was mounted.

I also am trying to install the email and asop MMS fromt he first post but cannot figure out how to. In the instructions it says the easiest way is to put them into the serendipity zip before flashing, but I already flashed and set up all my settings. Is there any quick way of adding them in without having to reflash?
[Captivate Android Development] scolth:
yeah your right, I did it and it works perfect now
[Captivate Android Development] sixstringsg:
Copy them over to system/app. And flashing themes doesn't work with Steam at the moment.
[Captivate Android Development] jojorios:
Ah, so I needed to install the battery mod before I installed Steam.
[Captivate Android Development] sixstringsg:
If you backed up your original kernel, you can switch to it, flash battery mod, then reflash Steam. Or just go to Glitterballs' thread for the non steam version and get it if you didn't back up.
[Captivate Android Development] smithisize:
Mikey,

For what it's worth, Since I installed serendipity, I haven't ran another ROM for more than a few hours before I've flashed back.

I like the theme, yet it's speedy. I love steam kernel, which I didn't know existed until Serendipity, and I like how well maintained it is.

Truly, serendipity = art, and you are a master artist

Thanks a lot for your hard work!

Regards

what are some benchmark scores?
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
Usually around 1800 on quadrant for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Out of curiosity. I wonder why mine is in the 1400s. Everything runs fast, so it isn't like it matters. I notice it hangs longest at DB writes/reads. Is there a setting you guys are applying that works through this faster, or do I actually have a problem?
[Captivate Android Development] aonavy:
wow thats pretty good
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
Are you using 1200mhz? I'm still on stock kernel and went back to jk4.
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
The highest I've had was on Perception 5, I think, like 2450-2500, but this rom feels just as fast, that's all that matters to me.

Dungeon, just tested again and got a 1744
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Even when I was on 1200Mhz, it was still 1400s. I'm thinking it's probably a setting in lagfix, but I'm not going to change it just for quadrant scores.
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
yeah, if everything is working fine, I wouldn't bother either.
[Captivate Android Development] Ethere:
I've never changed a modem out with any rom I've used...I wouldn't be sure how to do it, but I'm sure I could search a little bit and get it figured out. And I see the faded green you're talking about now. I thought you were talking about the portion before you dialed out with the number pad. I've only seen this themed once, and that was a metamorph theme.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Changing modems is easy. Just download the zip and flash with CWM Recovery.

JL3 is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=869628
[Captivate Android Development] ubikwitus:
Great. Thanks for this as well. I've been having issues running 2.0 and battery life. When I flash this with CWM, will it cause me to have to reinstall all my apps/settings again?
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
No. You should probably run LbsTestMode and hit Delete GPS Data, but other than that, no change required.
[Captivate Android Development] tallsilver:
Does voice dialing over bluetooth work for anyone?

Love this rom but I surely miss this feature.::eek:

google talk and korean keyboard not supported

I dont see Google Talk as default installation and I cannot find it @ market

-do i have to manually mount it into the phone using apk?

-since I am using my captivate in Korea, I need korean keyboard to type but I do see korean in locale comlum but I do not see any keyboard supported. Do i have to install google korean keyboard (froyo version) from the market?

- battery draining problem: i used cognition previously and 2.4 b4(?) got the longest battery usage among c-roms. any recommendation to optimize my battery for captivate? (signal here in korea is very good so this does not make my phone drain its battery quickly)

- I tried jk4 rom instead and i've got better result for speedtesting.

(4300 up 2200 down)

but the i9000 rom u used for this rom only got 1500 up 200 down so I am just curious why it has so different result

thank you for your help :)
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Yes. Either put it in /system/app when you flash, or push with ADB.

No idea.

I changed to the JL3 modem because JK4 is a battery hog. Mightbe worth a try for you. I posted a link a page or two back.

I still can't make full sense of all of the factors that affect speed. I've had some setups where I could get 5-6Mbit down, and some where it was half that in the same place at the same time of day.
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Hey, first i would like to say that i love this rom, the only one I use. I have a question, when trying to use the navigation application, it just sits at checking navigation availability. It did start doing this until 3.0. Is this a known issue and is there something i can do to fix it?
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Close the navigation app completely. Open Maps and let it find your location. Reboot your phone and navigation should work fine.
[Captivate Android Development] Endoran:
I'm getting high 1300's in quadrant and I feel the same way. I do have the speedmod kernel running though (with lagfix enabled), so maybe that receives a lower score than GB's kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] gergregg:
Do you have another GPS app open? I had gps status open and was having that problem. Force closed gps status and reopened navigation and all was well.
[Captivate Android Development] LimaI896:
I dont trust quadrant too much, my phone runs faster n smoother with the speedmod kernel (lag fix enabled & tweaks) + 3.5.3. I got only shy of 1400 consistant. But when I was stock 2.2 with one click lag fix I hit 2200. The phone ran way slower. Theres another more accurate quadrant score calculator starts with a L forget the name though lol.
[Captivate Android Development] unleashed12:
hey guys im wondering if theres any battery mod out there, thats just like the one included with this rom that has a % included with it?.. i dont want a circle one or anything, just like the stock one in this rom but with percents?

thanks

Problem with link?

I can't seem to download the latest version from the link in the original post. Keeps stalling at 26 percent. Is there an alternate?
[Captivate Android Development] bfara83:
Yea, I'm using Steam on 3.5.3. What file would I be using the ADB push on: framework-res.apk? It appears there's an incompatibility with the install scripts on Edify since the older versions of your battery mod works great on Steam. I was able to install v2 and v3 previously with Steam.
[Captivate Android Development] RashaMatt:
Did you try removing and re-inserting the SIM (the right way)?
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Np. A little reading would help next time though.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
It's (annoyingly) possible to put the SIM card in backwards. Did that once or twice.
[Captivate Android Development] cfili:
Does the included music.apk have a way to use lock screen controls? I dont see any settings for it. One of the reasons I like winamp is because of that but I really like the widgets for the included player better.
[Captivate Android Development] keitht:
I actually have the same question. I do not see any benefit in the CM music player and it also seems to take away features. Unless I missed it, I cannot have a genre view with it like I can with stock Samsung music player and I do not see the pull down controls on any of the lock screens.
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
Crap all this time i thought i was ok, just got the call on lockscreen problem, this was fixed in the new version?
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
The Samsung music player can't sort by artist, and then album. It's automatically gone for good after that.
[Captivate Android Development] keitht:
I personally play mostly from genre view and shuffle a genre so that does not bother me. I prefer that option along with the lock screen pulldown controls. Is it possible to install this somehow? Would be nice as an option. Can I just take the musicplayer.apk from another i9000 based ROM and place it in the systems/app folder of the ROM and have both?
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Love love love this title Mikey :)
[Captivate Android Development] Endoran:
Mikey and Chance are working on a possible fix (or have completed it) to be included (I assume) in the next update. I'm sure it won't be long until it comes out! :) So no worries, you're not alone, I've experienced the problem as well, oddly not on the lockscreen though, but while txting someone.

Chinese For Dinner

So I am kind of a forum voyeur but I felt this was worth sharing ;) So I am sitting on the couch waiting on Serendipity 3.5.3 to finish downloading so I could slip the speedmod kernel and flash... Open up my fortune cookie and this is what I got! Maybe its a sign that speedmod will be the new kernel!

Good experience with this ROM so far.. but is anyone else getting terrible battery life? At the rate I'm going I'm projected to get about 12 hours of battery life? :-/ recalibrated it this afternoon too. With my normal usage I usually get 18-24 hours.
[Captivate Android Development] LimaI896:
Im a heavy user and I got a 50% increase with battery life. My aftermarket battery life is also way better, they improved by 200%. :)
[Captivate Android Development] pudgey911:
I'd love to know the answer to this question too if anyone can help :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
I'm pleased you did :) I only request credit for my James Bond/MacGyver quote.
[Captivate Android Development] keitht:
I answered my own question... pulled it from another ROM and works great. For anyone that wants the Samsung Music Player, copy attached file to the system/app folder of the ROM before flashing.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
given the naming of this release someone serious needs to make a boot animation of Mr. T / AKA BA Barakus saying I PIT THE FOOL, I AINT GET ON THE PLANE, or WHATCHU PUT IN MY HAMBURGER.

[Captivate Android Development] rurouni572:
Explain please. I used to use the samsung music player and I could sort it by artist, then select and artist and the albums would be sorted alphabetically. Is this not what you meant?

Also, ever since the newest version of mixzing gave the lockscreen widget for free I've been using that.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
this would make a good wallpaper...or animation for boot

on the latter have it start in piece and reassemble similar to the phoenix boot animation.

I have just flashed 3.5.3 - this flash was a vast improvement over the last one, I really think it wasn't a good flash last time. Everything is zippy, even the market (was very slow on the last flash), and my texting issue is gone. Great job, Mikey, I'm sending another contribution to you! :)

Seperate Thread

Should I start a seperate thread, asking for help with my sim card issues to try to find a solution or a reason why it wont work after flashing.

Im not really getting to much help in this one, and I don't really know whats the preference on the forum.
[Captivate Android Development] xredjokerx:
Hey guys

I'm using beautiful widgets and I'm wondering...

When you click on the time, it brings up a nice screen with the time, weather and 4 shortcuts (alarm, gallery, music, home)

is there anyway to change the shortcut so that the music shortcut would actually open the music app thats included?

otherwise from that serendipity is quite amazing; definitely sticking to this rom for a while :) good job mikeymike :)
[Captivate Android Development] KaLiBLeeK:
Just had my own FC after receiving a call for the first time. Similar to what a few other people said; phone had been idle and asleep for quite a while, actually missed the call...heard the vm notification, and saw the FC popup when I unlocked the phone. I've been switching between modems and WiFi firmwares a lot recently too, because I was having some WiFi oddities...gonna hold off on reflashing until the next version is released though.
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
That is the AOSP clock so I think it requires the AOSP music player to work...back in Assonance I believe mikey had it working but he has switched to the CM6 music app now...long story short you need to find the AOSP music player and replace the one you have...

MTP

It's been a while since I've tried to do this but I think I found an issue today. I can't seem to get my phone to sync with windows media player. I haven't tried in a couple months, back when I ran cog it worked fine. I decided to do a little digging and saw the MTP application.apk was missing so I added it to system/apps. I then tried to reconnect to windows media player as I've done in the past, USB connections/Media player. MTP started but would just loop between initialising and SD scanner. Is there something else I should add?

By the way, nothing is wrong with the PC, when I pop the SD card into my notebook it synced with WMP immediately.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] xredjokerx:
Thank you for the response, I didn't know that it was the AOSP clock and I spent all day searching before finally posting haha. Thank you again :)

edit: does anybody know if the analog clock widget is part of the AOSP clock as well?

edit2: I believe it is; also, the deskclockgoogle.apk is the one that has the aosp clock as well as the analog clock widget.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Did you use a JPY MTP .apk?

If not, I can post it.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
I believe so. I took it from a Darky zip I had a few weeks ago. Can't be certain though. I'm willing to try another.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
One stock JPY MtpApplication.apk. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Thanks. Will give it a shot.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Gave it a shot Mikey, same result. It goes into a media scanner loop but never connects. I tried both media player and kies mode. Never goes past initializing.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
I dunno then. I use good old drag and drop.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I think it is that ole rule of everything has a trade off. I just did a speed test with ugjk4: 5mg download; ugjl2 I get 3mb. I used to like tljl3. But it doesn't seem to work as well for me lately. What's different? The ROM.

All this stuff that works together, it seems that all the different things that combine to give us what we want interect differently with each other.

This rom is really the best I've used. I may take the time before long to test the various modems that seem to be good, to evaluate speed vs. battery. I do think that if you want good speed, and other performance characteristics, that we end up paying in battery life.

I'm rambling...Sorry:rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Same here. Just thought it was weird. If anything I'll just pop the old SD card in the PC.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
You may want to try that. I offered something earlier, adn someone else did too. But the problem in a thread like this is that it keeps rolling with a lot of different topics. A dedicated thread my get more focused answers.

Sorry I don't have much else to offer. I presume you can see the SIM if you reflash back to stock or another ROM. That would be one basic test to try, in order to rule out possiblity of a bad SIM card.

I flashed the steam kernel a while back. Now I want to try out the Speedmod kernel. Can I flash the speedmod kernel from within Steam recovery?
[Captivate Android Development] vunuts:
Just flashed your rom Mike.... Not 4 minutes after I rebooted my phone, B.A. Barakus called me. He's pissed.

Great work by the way. Keep it up.

Side note: try and whip up a boot animation with an "I pity the fool" startup sound. If you could do that, that would lead me to believe that you have every right to make as many "over-exaggerated/making badass roms to overcompensate for your short comings" claims you want.
[Captivate Android Development] tysj:
Yep. Just did it this morning and it went fine.

BLN

Well, I took the dive. Upgraded to the Captivate, flashed this AMAZING ROM, got excited about BLN since Captivate has no LED indicator, and noticed after install, I have no BLN. Hmm.

Why?
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
Just open the bln app and enable it.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Or enable it in recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] sdricke:
Well, I thought I would get away with not flashing the Steam Kernal, and since it was optional, I didn't really want to dive in there until I was fully comfortable with flashing. Anyway, I decided to give it a go, and wouldn't you know, after flashing the Steam Kernel, I have BLN. This ROM rocks. Thanks Mikey.

Hey guys question,

This is step absolutely necessary?

2. Using Odin, flash back to stock JF6.

I'm on a stock 2.1 firmware (Rogers, UXJI2).

Thanks!

Some say yes, some say no, better safe than sorry.
[Captivate Android Development] RashaMatt:
It would be great if this board had an option to notify you when someone quotes one of your posts... with a link to take you there. I can't quite figure out how the "threading" display modes work on this thing. :(
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
He's right. Some would say yes, some would say no. But since your using Rogers stock, you should use the different Odin3 rather than the JF6 posted here.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
I pre-placed the .conf files that change the settings for Steam in /system/etc. For example, the Boot animation was turned off and things like that without it. And I turned BLN on while I was there.
