I did. I assume the settings you are talking about are IP address subnet mask and DNS server? If so, then yes it is set to get those automatically (dhcp).

Thank you for replying. I am currently using TouchWixGTG_v1.1_New_Dock.zip

http://xdaforums.com/show...t=touchwiz+gtg .

I can move icons in and out of the dock no problem. I think what might be going on and I might be wrong, fairly new at modding this phone, the icons in the dock , in the screen shot, are different than what I currently have. I think the icons are part of the apps themselves and the apps are probably updated versions with Perception 10.1 and they have different icons. The screenshot on the opening page might be from the original Perception 10 before any fixes.

Anyway to kill the landscape mode of touchwiz? Personally hate it rotating.
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
I already tried that. I'm sure you know that the browser already built into these ROMs are just cut down versions of the Dolphin browser. Which means that the Dolphin HD briwser had the exact same issues since its the same engine. Mobile Firefox and Opera had no problems, but they are in general too slow and not ready for primetime. And simply using the XDA app won't solve the fact that I post regularly on other forums which do not have an app.

And I'm not disputing that fact. DG is probably the sole reason why I've kept my Captivate. However, the issues we're having is not his fault...there are some underlying issues with the ROM; with the way it's rendering webpages. Oh, and just FYI, animated GIFs work flawlessly on 9.5. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] patvet10:
Well I used the original froyo rom leak. I also checked out the post about the service Q&A. It does seem like this is a modem issue. Real shame since the ROM is awesome.

I also have the new SIM card when I bought the phone. In the APN settings there is no password or user name with this ROM. Check it out for yourself.
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
It's the right size. And it happens with literally every i9000 rom. I've talked to some people on the cog forums that have the same problem with i9000 roms. The only similarity in our situations is that we live in an area with nearly equal strength 1900 and 850 combi bands. My phone switches back and forth between the two bands pretty often. When I charge the phone, I lose signal and the entire modem seems to lock up. I can't even put the phone in airplane mode most of time after this happens. I also cant get into the service menu for the modem. It locks too. If I try to switch band settings in the settings menu it searches for signal non stop. Usually the only way to fix it is to restart the phone.

There is definitely something going on with a number of people and these i9000 roms and it's not a rom flashing mistake.
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Well they're supposed to be empty, so it is important. And sadly Yes, your phone might have the modem issue. Try different modems till you find one that works. did you restore any system apps or data (not just user apps) with tibu? That could also cause the problem. You only want user apps, and even then no data.
[Captivate Android Development] patvet10:
Yes I did not restore system data and I tried with and without apps. Same result.
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Well then it's the modem. There are currently 3 physical modems in galaxy S phones. What imei do you have?

Confirmed by att rep on phone, there are four imei ranges out right now, two recalled, the safe 35xxxxxxxyyyy range, and the 1010xxxxxxxxxx imei range. The 1010 range is confirmed to have a new modern card. The 35 safe imei range is split, half with a compatible modern, and half with a half modem. The 35 range with the half modem will present problems such as losing signal. The 1010 range won't work outright. I have confirmed this with my captivate (safe compatible 35 range) and my girlfriends captivate (1010). If your imei starts with anything but 35 it should not support i9000 modems.
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
Isn't imei something that you aren't supposed to post to the Internet? Is there a range of imeis for each modem?
[Captivate Android Development] patvet10:
Xx1863040321701
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Sorry, posting imeis you only post the first for and last four of the number. Not the middle.
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
To reiterate,

Well then it's the modem. There are currently 3 physical modems in galaxy S phones. What imei do you have?

Confirmed by att rep on phone, there are four imei ranges out right now, two recalled, the safe 35xxxxxxxyyyy range, and the 1010xxxxxxxxxx imei range.

I have confirmed this with my captivate (safe compatible 35 range) and my girlfriends captivate (1010). If your imei starts with anything but 35 it should not support i9000 modems.

Further: att does not know the ranges of the 3x imeis that are half modems.
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
My imei is 3518-3987

Unfortunately I guess that's the ambiguous range, but it does seem like I have the problematic modem based on the symptoms. Is there anything I can do? Is there a legitimate reason to exchange my phone?

Also, what do you mean by "half modem"?

One more thing. What happens if I use a captivate modem with an i9000 rom.
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Yes you are in the ambiguous range. If you can, get it into only the 850 band and disable the 1900 band.

Edit: there is a way to do this, and it is under the apn settings. Which one you want I forget though...
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
I probably need the 1900 band though. It's used pretty extensively around here.
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
The "half"modem had the 1900 hardware missing. It is three old modem without some parts. The new modem was designed without them.

Idk, but I'm guessing bad juju.

Edit: try both on single mode. If one works then use that setting. If one doesn't than don't use that setting.

has anyone had a problem with their Handcent SMS since upgrading to 10.1? my texts are sending just fine, and people are receiving them, BUT, the little spinning cursor|hourglass thing doesn't go away, at all, until a restart. any ideas? ive tried uninstalling and then reinstalling to no avail.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
You can do also do this with SGS	Tools. Go into Secret Codes and look for Band Selection.
[Captivate Android Development] rpogorek:
Are you saying that you formatted the internal SD card? I want to be sure before I go and turn my phone into chimney-making material.
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
You need to reinstall it from the market. You can keep the plug ins and Fonts however
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
In the network secret menu enabled all gsm bands and only the 850 wcdma band. Is that what you are suggesting? Would reenabling the wcdma 1900 band cause problems?

Does att still ship the half modems? I occasionally and rarely get restarts. If I had my phone swapped would I get the full modem?
[Captivate Android Development] Chucky5150:
Video doesn't work

I've searched and through a bunch of pages here a) I can't find the answer or b) it isn't there to find.

This is the first ROM that I've flashed with my Captivate. I have, however, flashed other phones in the past.

When I try and play a video from on my phone I get a "unsupported file type" message. I know there isn't anything in the Known Issues about video not working.

What am I overlooking to get video working on my phone?

Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Idk if you can get a full 35 modem captivate anymore. Recently I've only seen 1010. There is no reason to swap as it its a fully functioning phone. Do you still get 3g with only the 850 band and has it fixed your issue?
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Had camera issues with Kernals from DG and GB....so i downloaded and installed the email.Apk posted here. Problem solved..

What does email have to do with the cameras?
[Captivate Android Development] PAulyhoffman:
Good question, but video won't record or play if you change the email apk.

This was discovered in phoenix rom and dg used the correct stock email in perception. Change it and see.
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
I'll let you know if it's fixed my issue tomorrow. I won't know until then. I do get 3g here. I'm surprised this isn't better known on this forum. Every time I've seen people complain of the symptoms i've been having they are just told they are flashing wrong.

do the 1010 phones work with the fix I'm using too? I do occasionally get restarts and I would hate to exchange it for a 1010 phone considering that the only rom made for it is the aging cog.
[Captivate Android Development] CuriousTech:
Try keeping the original email and get "Improved Mail" from the market (FREE). I don't use exchange so can't comment on it, but it saves ringtones properly and with TiBu it's a 3rd party app so you don't need to restore any system account info that could be version incompatible. 4 accounts + gmail here, so that saves some time.
[Captivate Android Development] Aftashok:
did that, said so in the original post. no luck.
[Captivate Android Development] Garjani:
My contacts are in the AT&T address book. Usually when I flash your ROMs, it comes up when I first start my phone, and my contacts all get synced. I couldn't seem to figure out how to do that this time. Is it possible?
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
It didn't pop up when you opened contacts for the first time? Why don't you sync your contacts with google? I would recommend switching to google.

Exchange Calendar sync forces lock-up and reboots

For some reason on this ROM (and some others) I am getting an issue that as soon as I turn on Calendar sync for my exchange account the phone starts to lock-up and do reboots.

I am running Exchange 2007 SP2. I have searched everywhere with as many keywords that I can think of to try to find a solution to this problem.

Is this working for other people? I had this problem with Perception 8, 9, 10 and 10.1. If this is working for others I will start to investigate from the server side and see if maybe corrupt data is coming from there.

Great work on the ROM!!

Does anyone know why the browser only allows you to have 4 windows open?

Don't remember it being like that in the previous Perception builds.

Can i897UCJH7 used with Perception 10.1?

Of all the Roms i tried i am getting stable 3G speeds on i897UCJH7 with cog v 2.1.6 (atinm's v 1.10) With other roms, my VPN Connection is being disconnected every 2 mins, but with this rom/modem, i am able to stay in VPN with out any issues at all,

Is it possible to use this Modem on Perception 10.1?

or is Perception 10.1 Rom has better speeds than this? can some one help.
[Captivate Android Development] Dino.:
I am also experiencing a force close with the bar code scanner by ZXing Team. With the previous perception this was not an issue. The camera works perfect, and I'm not sure why/when/how the bar code scanner stopped but I believe it only worked the first time(perhaps second time also).

I have also uninstalled/reinstalled and receive the same issue.

This is also coming from a <24hr fresh flash from JF6 if that would make any difference.

EDIT: I have delete the email.apk app(gmail is all I need) but youtube and other videos work perfectly.
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:

[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
I believe it works for me, and it relies on Samsungs email.apk. For whoever who had the issue, extract email.apk from /system/app in the P10.1 zip and throw it into /system/app with Root Explorer or equivalent.

No it is not possible, JH7 modem is 2.1 Eclair and this is 2.2.1 Froyo, you can only use Froyo modems (and I believe only i9000 modems too, so not JJ4 or JI6)

Recalibrate your battery, your phone might think that's 0%. One of my crap batteries died at 15% because my phone was calibrated to my good Samsung battery.
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Ha didn't think about that. I did flash at like 60 ish since I was... impatient. Having to get past the whole not charging past 98. This morning it was 99 so I think tomorrow I can wipe the battery stats.

[Captivate Android Development] darkangel9685:
I'm having a wierd problem....

I am able to call anyone, any time, but no one can call me. If they are lucky, my phone will (once in a blue moon) send them to my vm and they'll be able to leave me a vm. However, more typically, they will get a few rings and then a fast-busy signal. What's even more strange is that I will know someone is calling because the icon in my notification bar (whether it's H or 3G) will be replaced for a split second with a circle with a line through it, and my phone will short-sequence vibrate really quickly and (i assume) force close/crash out of the phone application

Any suggestions as to whats going on/how to fix this?

It seems to start happening once I reboot my phone from a fresh install of 10.1. Once I reboot, I get my old wallpaper and homescreens back (sans widgets). Could this be the issue?
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Did you restore any data from tibu(the green lines)? You only want to install user apps on new roms, never system data. try A flash and don't restore any settings or data, just user apps (white lines safe, red or green not safe to restore)
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
This is dumb, but is perception already rooted? I don't recall seeing the superuser app...
[Captivate Android Development] darkangel9685:

Yes, I formatted internal sd, this will WIPE everything on your sd so make sure to back it up to your pc first...now I don't recommend everyone going and doing this, I done it because I checked every possible scenerio first and made sure I had no other option..also want to mention my sd had not been cleaned out in months, there was tons of files I didn't need anymore and I had alot of files being written to very often, so corruption was bound to happen...however I also noticed 2 things going on in dmesg log which probley contributed to battery drain (so wiping yours might not do anything)

1) my network was switching 3g/hspa every 30sec, so disabling hspa solved that

2) also noticed my dns was switching about every other minute, created a startup script to set my dns..solved that problem
[Captivate Android Development] bmuellercinci:
No - phone is 4 months old, did not have this problem on cognition and my usage patterns did not change in a way that would affect the battery. What did change is the ROM and therefore, once all other possibilities have been eliminated the ROM must be the issue. I will switch back to COG - document my findings and see what the difference is.
[Captivate Android Development] igodey:
So i think until AT&T releases 2.2 Froyo we will not get that modem files and cannot get att 3g speeds. is that right?
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
No, we can get 3G with any current 2.2 modem. You just can't use Captivate modems on an i9000 ROM. And we won't ever officially get HSUPA enabled modems on the AT&T Captivate, I'm pretty sure of that. You'll need to use i9000 modems or I believe i896 modems work too.

No, it's rooted. Superuser is there.
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
After much talking to att and samsung, go into the secret band selection menu and enable the 850 gsm and 1900 gsm pcs bands. Those are the bands att uses, none of the others will work with an att sim. Doing so will allow for the iphone network as well. From start to finish it was nine hours on the phone with att and samsung...jesus. Disable all wcdma bands as att does not use them. this will also extend your battery life by a big margin. Why the hell haven't we noticed this before? On a plus note, those having modem instability should be able to fix it by doing this. Those with the newer modems and half modems Must do this for stability reasons.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Wow, did AT&T give you some mis-information! AT&T most certainly does use WCDMA, I'm using it this very second. AT&T uses 850 GSM, 850 WCDMA, 1900 GSM, and 1900 WCDMA. I know this for a fact, as I have forced my phone to each of them for testing.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
I guess this is the new AT&T company line to try to get customers off 3g for more bandwidth!
[Captivate Android Development] drewopo77:
Well just heard anouther strike against getting anything official from Att for the captivate. They " end of life " the captivate last week.
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
unfortunately enabling all gsm bands and 850 cdma didn't work. After charging to 100, I still had to reboot to get signal back.

edit: Now I'm trying with just 850 gsm, 1900 gsm and 850wcdma. We'll see what happens.
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
I didn't think any replacements were coming until the summer.
[Captivate Android Development] drewopo77:
Probably not but do it now and get rid of all the stock they have
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Oops, misunderstood the att rep... Yes enable the 850 and 1900 wcdma, no other ecdma bands. My bad. Called them back. I hate indian accents.

I will have to uninstall this rom. I installed it four days ago. Each day it has killed my battery in about 8 hours. This is fast considering these days had very light usage. Last night I flashed to stock, master cleared and today the same happened again.

Are you validating the battery? I get great life after calibration

noob question, but how do i flash the circle battery mods? Are ones from other mods compatible with this? Where do i download them?
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
There is a circle battery mod version of the Darkness theme available. If you want ONLY the circle battery mod, PM me and I can definitely help you do that.
[Captivate Android Development] Xerous:
So after being plagued by the nonexistent battery drain bug. I have re-flashed from stock with clear and tried 4 different modems I begin tracking down the "time without a signal 50%" since it seemed to be the odd thing occurring.

After doing a little Googling I have found several other models of android phones with this weird issue. The only real "fix" seems to be putting the phone into Airplane Mode and then taking it out. Every time you boot the phone.

After doing this I have seen my 50% (which has been the constant through every flash along with the crappy battery life) slowly creeping down every minute or two I'm on cell data now.

Gonna give this a day or so and see if this indeed is what is causing the battery life trouble.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
If you check my Sig I have the Circle C and E added to stock Perception Frame work, just click on the my site link to get to them.

Or of cousre check out the darkness 2.5.1, I have added Circle batts to that theme also and it is a really cool theme. Links in sig. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] DarkDvr:
Anybody else noticed an issue where you'd set your brightness to anything (say 75% or 100%), but when you launch the browser it resets to a minimum?

Might be related to my battery being at 5%.. hehe.. If it's a battery saving feature at low battery %.. I sure hope I can disable it. hate it when technology makes decisions for me =)
[Captivate Android Development] randomafk:
Thanks for info and offer. I think I can just settle for that one.

So the circle mod just comes from the framework.apk?

Also another question, is there any reason why the available circle mods are limited to types A-E as opposed to the types available on the UOT kitchen?
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
Disabling all bands but 850 gsm, 1900 gsm, and 850 wcdma doesn't work either. I still lose signal while charging to 100%. It's very frustrating since it means I and a reasonable number of people can only use captivate based roms and that only leaves cog, which gets very little attention.
[Captivate Android Development] MrOpportunity:
EDIT: anyone with this wifi drain problem (if anyone), try putting it on the charger for a bit while off, reboot, and unplug. Your battery should report a figure you'd expect, rather than something significantly drained. Sorry if this was discussed elsewhere, I haven't seen it recently except for someone else mentioning this. Never had a battery stats issue quite this significant, lol...

ORIGINAL:

I saw someone mention earlier they had fast battery drain with wifi, that's happened to me too. 5 hrs dropped me from 57% to 2, with a total uptime of around 14 hrs.

Not sure what the cause would be, but its not the battery stats, the battery was fully drained when I put it on the charger.

I didn't find any resolution, but since nobody is really bringing this up, I gather its something I did, rather than the kernel.

So, anyone got an idea where I screwed up? :P
[Captivate Android Development] ryboto:
So, the first boot of the phone after the initial flash, the battery lasted almost 16 hours, and I still had around 25% left before charging. This was with wifi on, and pushing email, and using the phone a lot to restore apps/set things up. Now, a few days later, I'm seeing huge drain and I don't even have to do anything.

At work the cellular signal is awful, so I put the phone in flight mode, and only engage the wifi, since the signal is strong throughout the building. I've looked at my phone twice today in the past 3 hours since it's been off the charger where it had been at 100% for a few hours. Since then it's dropped to 77%. Estimated battery life went from 12 hours this morning to 8 hours 50 min. Not sure what the heck is going on.

I'm looking at the usage stats, and it says that Cell Standby is using 61% !!! Wifi is at 6%. All of this while the phone is in flight mode....something isn't adding up.

edit- turned off wifi, refreshed the Cell standby stat and now it says 55%, it's using more than the screen...
