The Samsung MMS is a pile of crap. ;)

It opens picture messages in the video player, instead of the gallery.
[Captivate Android Development] loueichjr:
Yeah. It is the same one. I much prefer the AOSP one in this rom but would like to have the ability to select messages to delete. Maybe someone will add that feature to it. Hmmmm.....
[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
Agreed. And i went to your IRC channel and no one was awake :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] loueichjr:
Sounds like you are getting FC's on incoming calls. Several things can cause this. Most likely when you restored your apps you overwrote something that is causing this (phone.apk or callsettings.apk). I recommend a reflash and before you restore your apps do some test calls to the phone to see if it works.

I have a 5 hour computer class on Saturday mornings. I'm in there right now though. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
Hey Mikey, is di11i's rom also 2.2.1? I noticed that on his new update, he fixed the capacitive button that lights up when you touched the screen.

Hi,

I still have problem with the wifi at university.

When connecting with the wifi, I need to logon with my ID/password.

However, the log-in screen does not appear.

I did some reasearch and found out the certificate of their website is not recognized as a trusted website.

It was perfectly fine back in stock rom.

Things I already try doing:

-directly input log-in address

-restart phone wifi, flight mode, etc..

Any input idea would be great, since no one seem to be bothering with it on Q&A post.

Thanks!

Thats why i am hoping u will add a check box to version 5.4 :)
[Captivate Android Development] rFlux:
Flashed this a day or two ago and I'm getting horrendous battery life. After a full charge session it only shows a 98% charge. Yesterday under medium to low usage I killed the battery in under 20 hours. Battery life wasn't the greatest when I was on the Rogers 2.1 Eclair, but it was much better than this. I'm going to try wiping or reseting the battery stats, or whatever that's called. Will post follow-up results.

EDIT: Otherwise, I am LOVING the ROM. Thanks Mikey and Chance. (FYI: Contact icons in the contact list get stretched out widthwise, making them all fat. This does not occur in the messaging app, only the contact list)

Is there any way to get the camera to output files like IMAG0001.jpg instead of using the timestamp, or even a way to just setup a script that executes every time that the Camera folder is updated to rename the files? It's annoying not being able to have everything "just work" in iPhoto.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Sounds like the problem here is iPhoto. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] merlin903:
Actually from what I've been able to discern is that it's actually a problem in the DCIM implementation in Android itself. Clearly fixing that falls outside the scope of the ROM, but I'm hoping just a quick fix, like a init.d script even, could be used to remedy the issue in the interim.

You must have had a bad flash then. I've been running every build of Serendipity and had great battery with all of them. However I get the best battery with DG's Firebird 2 kernel and Serendipity 5.2

Stupid question. Flash 5.3 this morning, used Titanium Backup/Restore and somehow inherited some older apps. Is it wiser just to restore apps with data and not use the apps + system data option?
[Captivate Android Development] mcg:
Switched to the Firebird 2 kernel today, noticed a huge increase in brightness with the same setting. Hope battery life improves though. One thing that irks me is the weak vibration coming from this ROM... I wonder what's making it so weak?
[Captivate Android Development] keitht:
Nasty but I like it.
[Captivate Android Development] keitht:
Battery: This is normal with 2.2.1 kernels. Flash another kernel if it bothers you like the one in my signature.

Contacts: It is more squashed for me with the white trim on the bottom with the 3 dots. I hate it too and posted this before.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
System data is always a bad idea.

Sent from my Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] CougarBroker:
Never restore system data
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
Before you flash, go into TB and click on batch. There's a place to delete deleted apps, on that makes any sense. Run the batch and delete them before restoring your backup...and NEVER restore system settings. Just don't do it.
[Captivate Android Development] smeltn:
how can I turn up the volume on speaker phone? Using Youmail, the speakerphone volume is horribly low.
[Captivate Android Development] gcamp0730:
You could try Handcent sms. It allows you to delete multiple messages or entire threads. And you can either make it look like aosp sms or iphone bubble sms.
[Captivate Android Development] :
I love this ROM by all means but the thing that I really liked about the older ROMs was that there kernal was straight up compatible with the voltage app where as 5.3 isn't :( and i'm always kind of iffy about downloading a different kernal then what has already been provided with the ROM
[Captivate Android Development] bms231:
Oh i tried that once on my original captivate. Thereafter any time I got an SMS the phone shut down. Now, it may be related to the shutdown hardware issue that was in phones pre thanksgiving 2010, however, I told myself I would never re-install that app again.

I know mike will come through!
[Captivate Android Development] loraque:
Swapping among the major kernels out there is totally painless actually. Fear not and forge forward! I think you need to pick an OCUV kernel if you want to play with that app, which is why it doesn't work on current Serendipity.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
I've been having this problem lately as well. It seems as if titanium backup gets some files confused when restoring. From now on I just restore apps and data and leave the system files alone. Theres nothing that really needs to be kept the same when flashing with system files right? Unless the apk changes which I could just push myself right? I just use the stock system data. Is there another way of going about this mikey?

What's wierd is it happened all of a sudden. I didn't flash or do anything to result in this. Just started happening one day.

It is very frustrating as I spent 2 days trying to figure out why the hell my phone would FC the second the call came in.

I'm on 5.0 now and am thinking of upgrading to 5.3. Just scared this FC thing will come back. I'll flash up to 5.3 tonight and will keep u updated.
[Captivate Android Development] Soccer_Dad:
You all probably know this already, but I just discovered it. I suppose I could find it somewhere in the ~600 pages in this thread:

Long press on the home key brings up a "Recent Task" list. It's an excellent way to switch between apps without searching for them on home screens. And there's a button on the list to access the Task Manager, which allows a quick kill of things like the music player (which pauses, but never seems to stop). I assume this is a ROM update, and not a GO Launcher feature (seems like reprogramming the soft keys would require root at least).

I had the "Note to self" FC issue. I wiped and deleted Voice Search and Gmail, then reinstalled Voice Search from the market, saw that Gmail wouldn't install from there (like the first user about 10 pages back), and then flashed the new Gmail. Still FC's. Wiped and uninstalled that one, then found a "Froyo 2.2.1" Gmail, and sideloaded that. Wouldn't install - never could find the app in the drawer. Went back to the market for one more try.

It worked!! Gmail then loaded, and there were no FC's for either "Note to self" or "Email Home".

So far...

Don't know if it matters, I'm a 1009 Captivate, in case others find that it's only that batch that has certain problems...

Seems like the line "Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it" doesn't hold for working with the Captivate. Think of all the places where you "reinstall packages" multiple times until it works, or "do the three button method" to get to download mode until it takes.

[Captivate Android Development] Thnikk:
Great rom, I've been using serendipity for the past week or so now, but one thing bugs me. What's up with the lower quality backgrounds? I never ran into this when I was using perception and idk if it's a color fix thing or something else, but is there any solution?

EDIT: nm, I just replaced the gallery3d.apk with the perception one, works great :D

If you have SGS tools you can use it to install stock market...if you dont have it a guy in the themes and apps section has continued SGS tools specifically for the Captivate...that way every time you flash you will always have an easy way to replace your market back to stock colors.

Thank you! I figured you would be the one to know. Just so you know, I'm not a frequent poster however I am stuck to xda. I have tried most of the roms and I am hooked to yours. Great job! Your dedication and support makes your rom the best.

EDIT: I seem to be getting a purple kind of color with that hex value. This is through my widget app (fancy widget) and a simple Google search for hex colors???
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
It does vary from one person to the next, but I have not had any issues with flashing other ROMs "on top" of this one. I'm going through the various JPY ROMs right now trying to figure out if I am going to stick with them. GuardianBob has an app that takes care of the lights on the capacitive buttons not staying on/coming on when you touch anywhere on the screen, but I still like to have the Haptic on Home, which no JPY has as of yet.

Hmmm...I wonder how you can say it is working great when you haven't even finished installing everything, let alone test.

That being said, I think in my case, for the little while I had it, the only issues were both related: the Text to Speech would not install which then also borked Google NAV.

Mikey has some APKs in the OP to load now that fixes that. I am not sure if it is required if you get a fresh download of 1.7.

ROM is looking like it will be quite nice.

Deal-breaker bug in 2.2.1 - Mobile AP max connections = 2

I LOVE THIS ROM!! :)

Unfortunately, I CAN'T use it :(

It suffers from a bug that is in ALL the 2.2.1 ROMs I have tried so far,

namely that Mobile Access Point only works with up to two client connections!

The third client to connect never gets a usable connection.

If anyone knows any more about this bug or if there's a way to fix it, PLEASE tell me!

So now it's back to Assonance for me, until this gets sorted out... sure hope it's soon!

A Question: Can Steam be used with Assonance 5.2?

[Captivate Android Development] slifer315:
titanium backup conveniently color codes things, green for useful system data, white for user-installed apps, and red for system data you shouldn't touch. use the batch feature to backup all the green and white ones before flashing, restore them after, and you'll have pretty much everything like it was before.

Has anyone had a problem with 3G data? I reflashed back to stock and data was working and then flashed to 5.3 and data isn't working anymore unless I'm on a phone call. And that's without doing a restore through Titanium.

If I put it in GSM only (Edge) it works fine, but 3G only works if I'm on a call. If I'm not on a call, it doesn't work.

And remember this is a fresh flash of 5.3, no restore. I had the same issue with 5.2 as well.
