GMail issue??

So far i am really enjoying this ROM. I am having what I beleive may be an issue with GMail. My messages are not coming to my phone in the order in which they were received. If that make sense. If I log into GMail on my PC i can see message 1.2.3.4 etc... but on my phone its message 2.1.4.3. the ones out of sync on my phone is from my POP3 forward. But yet, it is the correct order onmy PC. Hopefully that makes sense???

Is there a way to change back to the white version. I do like GMail theme, but i am finding it hard to read the text.
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
Same here, I had a callback about a job and it went straight to VM and didn't show up on the call log, really ****ing aggravating.
[Captivate Android Development] loueichjr:
NM. I found ver 3.5.3 and extracted the phone.apk. I hope this fixes it. Thanks all for your help on this!
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
Here's the one from 3.0, never had any problems with this one.
[Captivate Android Development] loueichjr:
Thank you! I will try this one then.
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
Give it a second, I'm rebooting and calling my vm to make sure everything works

edit: everything checks out for me, no issues.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
is it ok to install this over the newer phone apk? or should i uninstall the new one first....i too am having a big problem receiving calls

I got an "application not installed" but with a gen check mark after the prompted overwrite
[Captivate Android Development] bdpyo:
Hoping 5.0 will have the youtube fix, previously mentioned and the ability to add and delete screens or more screen customizing...

I will be set for life with this rom if so. Lol :-)
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
Install picasa from the op, and you will get the option to upload vids to youtube. And I think Mikey said it will be in 5.0
[Captivate Android Development] bdpyo:
I couldn't figure out how to dl the picasa apk and open it on the phone. :hammer:

You don't install it, you copy it to system/app with some type of file manager, overwriting the other one.

Is anyone else having problems downloading mms? I can send it just fine but i can't recieve. When i recieve one it just sits at downloading all day. This just started hapening when i started using Serendipity.
[Captivate Android Development] sixstringsg:
Mine works just fine, but I am using the themed Samsung one. Not the AOSP one included in the ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] Krooked22:
Might I suggest handcent sms. Great messaging application
[Captivate Android Development] cfili:
So if 3.x phone.apk works and 4.x does not, the question to Mikey is what changed that you think could affect the on receive call FC?
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
I've got the opposite results. Had it happen once on 3.5, but never since.

It's very peculiar.
[Captivate Android Development] keitht:
Attached is a circle battery mod which is compatible with steam and clockwork. If you want a different circle battery than the one in this package, you can replace the framework-res.apk inside the ZIP using WINRAR then flash in steam. The circle battery included here is for Serendipity 4.2/4.3 only and is the Version A (goes from Green > Yellow > Orange > Red as it drains to different levels. Thanks to someone who provided the steam compatibility. I am sorry, I do not recall your name. Maybe ChanceM can use this.
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Thanks. Worked. But I don't like the theme. I'll just use it for mms.

Open your arms wide, brothers and sisters, and welcome me into that exclusive (?) club whose members have received an important call only to be greeted by - ta da - a Force Close message.

No logcat, pussycat, or other feline to offer.
[Captivate Android Development] loueichjr:
Welcome to the club. I was running 4.3 for days without an issue until this morning when I was expecting an important call from work. The sad part is that my ex-wife always rings through with no problem :(

I pulled mine out of 3.5.2, so here it is fwiw.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:

I moved to handcent on my first stock ROM (9000 roms ago) and I have been there since. It is better than stock and better than Chompsms imho.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Very peculiar indeed. I ran 3.5.2 from release until 4.3 came out and never had the issue. It happened to me twice with 4.3 - 1st time was completely stock, the 2nd time I was running Speedmod k12q and the KP1 modem (which seems to be no better than the stock JL4 for me.)
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Lucky you Jack, try catching us a logcat or try the 3.x phone apk.
[Captivate Android Development] x3nhydr4lutr1sx:
3.5.2's phone.apk also force closes on me on the first phone call that I receive.
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
I'll mention this again - there's an app called aLogcat that could be useful, you can send the log right from your phone. For those who are ADB phobic ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Jack45:
I extracted phone.apk from 3.5.3 and installed it. I know that others have already submitted logcats. If Mikey (after reading this) believes he needs more, I'll step up to the plate.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
I read just about everything here and I do not recall seeing logcat's for this issue.

Do you guys know what Serendipity gets stock?
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
I don't believe any have been posted but I do believe a few people have sent mikey logcats, could be wrong tho. I personally haven't had one since getting away from jl3 modem so I don't see what all the complaining is about lol
[Captivate Android Development] rasroygbiv:
My experience has been that I get the force close on incoming calls when it is another call beeping in from an existing call. It has done it once on a regular call and three or four times on call waiting. On Serendipity 4.3, I will try to get it on aLogcat. So random.
[Captivate Android Development] KaLiBLeeK:
Got a FC yesterday at work when a call came through. Flashed the JL2 modem, just tested it...another FC. I was running aLogcat, but it wasn't setup properly to catch errors/FC I guess. I'll try it again in a few.
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
The FC has only happened to me once on jk4 since i switched to JL2 ive been golden. This ROM is just pure greatness.
[Captivate Android Development] RashaMatt:
Thanks crupp - and adamholden85 for the zip :)
[Captivate Android Development] stuff:
Hopefully mikey can figure out what causes the FC's.
[Captivate Android Development] PSUfan:
x2....with jl2 modem
[Captivate Android Development] slaman:
Another user with FCs...happened after rejecting a call, once with tapatalk, and many many times with iFitness..

Also, a request to have a sideways battery with percentages. (a few themes already have this).the current battery icon's numbers are typo small to read.
[Captivate Android Development] Smallsmx3:
I got fc when using jl2 jl3 modems. Jk3 and jk4 give me no issues
[Captivate Android Development] slifer315:
just had the force close on an incoming call twice and only after switching modems from jl3 to jk4.
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:
It's not the modems that cause the problem, I've tried every modem imaginable and it still happens, swap the phone.apk and it will fix it.
[Captivate Android Development] charmartist:
I'm already running 4.0.1 with lagfix enabled. Can I just flash this in CWM without wiping and without disabling lagfix?

Or do I need to wipe, flash to stock, root, and then install 4.3?
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
That's right. Grabbing the Phone.apk from 3.5.3 would solve the fc issue.

Sent from my Muscles using Brain Cells
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
It's recommended to flash back to stock to avoid problems like fc issues. Flash back to stock, master clear, root and install clockwordmod then flash Serendipity 4.3.

[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
For the record, my first FC didn't happen until yesterday when I had just flashed the new SpeedMod kernel. I'm not blaming the kernel, but I had just made a rather major change.
[Captivate Android Development] evoic:
I'm at 24h 12mins since plugged into the charger with 23% battery life left.......this is just nuts. No other ROM experience has come close to this. I keep wanting to try Paragon but I really can't imagine being any more satisfied than this. I may have to break down and have my cheap ass send a donation O_o

Sent from under your bed.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I just happened to be passing through and saw that no one was answering your request for a vertical battery with percentage. So, I put one together for you. This is built using Mikeys latest framework and is flashable. Keep in mind this is the same framework that comes out of the box so any theme or wallpaper changes will be lost. Create a backup please. Let me know how it works for you!
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Awesome work Adam!
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Well thank you and enjoy should you flash it!
[Captivate Android Development] Shoey Peachew:
Wait, is this a fix?

I couldn't find the older v3.5.3 can someone upload it? What if I took the Phone.apk from from another rom like Andromeda, would that work?
[Captivate Android Development] slaman:
Also, does anyone have the original Samsung Music Player .apk file? It has an option to output via Phone vs. Bluetooth that the stock doesn't have...
[Captivate Android Development] slaman:
Maybe I'm blind, but it's not there... It's different than the MMS or video player...
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
I posted it a few pages back, or take the shortcut from here:
[Captivate Android Development] rabbivj:
nvm +10char
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Wow, that is going to be hard to track down. It could be many things messing with the SQLite connection, and it is quite possibly not even connect to the phone.apk.
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
sorry mikey but it isn't
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Like so:

adb push Phone.apk /sdcard/
adb shell
su
busybox mount -o rw,remount /system
cd /sdcard
cp Phone.apk /system/app
stop
start
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
Your not blind its not there lol go back to the main rom page and click the paper clip beside serendipity and find the file named musicplayer.apk...i think that is the one you want. I would post it for you bit I'm posting from a phone...
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Delete me.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
This is the Samsung Music player.

I guess the link to it got lost in the shuffle.
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
funny how only minutes after i posted that i got a FC on a call i made to my phone from my house haha i need that phone.apk that fixes it
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
You can grab that from v3.5.3 of Serendipity.
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
cool, i think someone posted it a few pages back ill go get it.

3.5.3 or 3.5.2?
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
Just in case you can't see it.
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
Except for the Circle Battery Mod, I'm running a stock Serendipity 4.3.

My phone just re-booted in the middle of a phone call. Should I change the phone.apk, or could it be my voltage settings?
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
Phone.apk is probably not the culprit here...what are your voltage settings?
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
Click on my 2nd screenshot. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
You're jumping from -0 to -75... I'd do something like this instead:

-25

-50

-75

-100

-100

-125
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
Done. Does it make a difference that I've limited the clock to 1000 Mhz?
[Captivate Android Development] rabbivj:
forgive my stupidity but does anyone have a step by step on how to swap the Phone.apk file? im having FC issues too.
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
1) Download root explorer (or super manager)

2) Download phone.apk from a few posts back

3) Copy phone.apk from sdcard and paste in system/app

4) reboot

Any questions just ask...

Edit: Or if you are more comfortable using the adb method those instructions are about 14 posts back...
[Captivate Android Development] thatg:
sorry search is down while asking this,coupe of request/questions

1. can i change the boot animation to nexus one

2. can i change the lock sounds to nexus one

3. the rom i downloaded didnt have a battery with percentage anyone have a gingerbread percentage zip?

4. my battery life isnt so great, is it the rom or is it cause im running keep the lights on?

thanks for the help
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
1) yes just name the file bootanimation.zip and put in system/media

3) there was one posted about 30 posts back that you flash in clockwork

4) You could try U/V to save some battery...or do like I did and install speedmod...

Wow, this has grown to 42 pages very quickly.

Steam seems cool but when I try converting to the recommended ext4 lagfix my phone went into repeated reboots.

I flashed back and reloaded but now I'm using voodo/CWM, steam has me afraid to go near it now :o

I apologize for redundancy if someone else already experienced/reported this.

Third post, but hey, who's counting.

Also, I wanted to say thanks to you personally because I knew a lot of people weren't going to read my post and if I rolled it out slower, this would happen a few times, but eventually people like you would have read it and would re-post it for others instead of me having to do it 23515255254 times.

Hi! For some reason my network connection is edge. I always had 3g in my room, but the minute I flashed Serendipity it become edge. What could be the problem?

Also I had problems with custom roms before where screen would freeze sometimes and phone needed to be restarted by pulling out battery. Its normal on stock rom. Any one else had an issue like this? Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
If rebooting or toggling airplane mode doesn't solve the issue then you can always try to flash a different modem...as far as the freezing goes it is usually related to oc/uv causing phones to be unstable...main reason I switched to an non oc'd kernel to eliminate that...
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
when trying to move the phone.apk someone posted here to the system/app i get an android.phone FC, im not even sure if it got copied. Just tried twice and got the same FC

[Captivate Android Development] Jack45:
FYI for those afflicted with a force close during an incoming call. The call will go to voice mail so all is not lost. At least that's what happened in my case.
[Captivate Android Development] loueichjr:
That's normal when overwriting the file. should only fc once out twice reboot and all is well. I can verify that it does replace the file. Now what you don't want to do is delete the phone.apk file and then try to copy in the new file. That will put you in a constant FC loop. Learned that the hard way.

lock up issues

I am running, I guess, a stock version of Serendipity 4.3 with the exception I flashed Green_Battery_Mod_A_V06_ANI.zip in CWM for the circle battery and isntalled the 3.5.2 Phone.apk as I too was getting FC after a phone call. Other than that, I haven't changed anything that teh ROM flash would install/setup.

Now i am getting frequent lock ups, not FC's. I ahve to pull the battery and reboot.

Anyone else seeing this?
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
Well, I've just copied over that phone.apk, I also have the animated green battery mod (I've had absolutely no problem with that whatsoever), I'll report back if I start getting lockups.

Hey Mikey the swype gingerbread keyboard has an amazing look but I was wondering if its possible to put a version with the same look but with out that "speak" button and make the space bar bigger.

I guess it could be an undervolt issue. But not really convinced. I didn't have any problems other than my GMail was receiving messages out of order which I think is fine now, until after I changed to the circle battery icon. I found a different labeled green circle battery zip in this thread and flashed it this morning. been about 3 hours or so and so far no more lock ups.

I think I might still reflash this weekend just to make sure i didn't have/do a bad flash.
