will the 5.5 apk files work with 5.6?
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Technically should work. 5.6 is a small improvement over 5.5
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
Yes. All of the add on files work fine from 5.5
[Captivate Android Development] joeyac02:
ok I had an issues first flashing 5.6 wouldnt boot up froze at boot screen just wiped trying to flash again
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
so did it boot?

also, home now so im fixing all the broken **** i did last night, man i must have been out of it lol

all the links will be fixed, no wipe versions, and i forgot to take out kernel flashing app from /data on the add on so im taking that out since its now included in full version.
[Captivate Android Development] francous:
So i know 5.6 just came out a few days ago and i just updated about an hour ago but i was wondering if you knew when u were gonna release 5.7? i dont want to rush anything of course i know a good rom takes time i was just wondering how much time i had to breathe lol
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
5.6 came out yesterday if I am not mistaken.

This is my captivate. There are many like it buy this one is mine.
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
So...I went for a drive today..and decided I would try my gps out....since I haven't really did that yet..with all of the ice storms and snow storms we've had the past week..Ran it for about 1 hour and it was a most pleasant experience.I usually don't put much stock into Google maps..but since I never bothered using it..I figured what the heck..I was impressed..the thing tracked me from my home across the river into Illinois and back..in a round trip of 52 miles. It stayed on the correct side of the highway..turned when I turned..stopped when I stopped..and did surprising well...even when the screen was off..That is 1 thing it never has done before..it always drifted way off or lost gps before when the screen went off..Not this time..I am loving this phone more and more these days...

Thanks to Digi and Dilli for a great rom...and Thanks also to Diaoblo009 for his extra effort as well..he helped me a-lot of late getting this to look better everyday..

Mac
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
lol, i cant say for sure, cause when things come to me, or i have something i want to try, i just go to work until its done.

you got a few days i think, but 99% of the time i put out a no-wipe version so you will not lose anything on your phone.

only thing i may update soon is the kernel with hardcore's newest, im getting ready to flash it now.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Now he says this :) kidding

I checked out and flashed 5.5 no wipe, and the very next morning I wake up to find 5.6 has been released. My luck, it contains updates that I do not need.

@dilli: could u pls push the backlight-on-when-screen-on as an optional add on, so we can have an option to skip it.
[Captivate Android Development] francous:
Nice! lol.. i have no idea wat the kernel with hardcores newest means but im sure its important..

oh but for the next one can u have it so the previous picture u took is in the bottom right corner like it was in 5.4 for easy viewing? that was awesome.. then it dissapeared.. :confused: but i understand to ADD things u gotta get take things away! :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
ya i will, gimme a little bit
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
take ur time sir. I meant that as in for next releases, not necessarily for this release. I am on 5.5 now and getting awesome battery life.

2.5 hours talking on phone

1 hour display

28 hours standby

I have 41% battery left as of this minute.
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
diable, how long do you want your button back lights to stay on when you touch the screen, i got a default version(3 sec,) a 10 sec. and a 15 sec version. i put the 10 sec version in 5.6

and it wont affect the battery to ANY noticeable difference AT ALL. and ill put these up for anyone that wants a different version, just let me know-actually i just might put them in 3rd post as options.
[Captivate Android Development] rjblack11:
Good to know i have your exact same setup...lol:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] itguy28:
I updated to 5.6 but when I got to about phone is says I'm still 5.5
[Captivate Android Development] gothpunk4christ:
Interesting. Mine says 5.6. Make sure you flashed the right file/it was successful?

*edit* I see where yours says k12u as it should, did you just flash the kernel by itself and not the full rom? I did that once not paying attention...
[Captivate Android Development] itguy28:
I did the update from 5.5 with kernal. it was successful I even did it twice and it did the same result.
[Captivate Android Development] mirrored:
clean wipe/flash shows 5.6. either don't really care its off or do a full wipe/flash
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
You must have flashed the one that di11i posted a while back. That one just updates your kernel. Download no-wipe and no kernel update from OP and flash that and you should be fine.
[Captivate Android Development] gothpunk4christ:
and woohoo... I guess xda thinks I'm an old fart now, I got promoted to senior member... I mean come on my goatee is salt/peppered and I've got a huge grey patch on the back of my head but do they have to rub it in? Well, I better be getting a senior discount on phones soon too...

[Captivate Android Development] xtop:
i've run into a problem which is almost certainly completely my fault, but i'm hoping you guys can shed some light on since on new to flashing the captivate. but i recently flashed this rom and now incoming calls ring once, and then drop the call. i can send calls and send receive texts, but can't receive phone calls.

somebody told me it was because i flashed with the sim card in, but i reflashed with it out and the same problem. is it because of something in titanium backup being restored? or do i need to go back to stock without the sim card, then flash. or combo of all of the above?

thanks in advance, you guys are life savers :D
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
1. I always flash with sim n external memory card in. So thats not an issue.

2. When a number is saved in reject list, it rings once n then gets rejected. Check there once.

3. When using tibu to restore, pls do NOT restore system data. Restoring system data tends to mess up.

4. Restoring to stock is recommended to avoid issues like this. Though not a standard requirement, I personally wud recommend flashing stock before any rom full install. It hardly takes 10 mind additional time, and helps save us from a lot of issues.
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
Mines very similar to yours..this was yesterday before putting it on the charger ..had about 1 hours worth of calls and a about 10 text messages..and did some downloading as well..Different kernel on mine..but between those 2...I really don't know how much more improvement there can be system wise..

No real complaints at all so far...everything is working properly as far as I can tell..hell even my GPS is acting like it should...If I can get my dialer done..then I'll be completely happy with it..and just sill play around with the looks of it..

Mac
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
You have a pretty good setup. But I cannot use speedmod's kernel. It strains my eyes. So the kernels I can use are GBs and the one I have now.

And kernels can effect the system to some extent. For example, when on GB's kernel, idle drain is like 1% per ~1 hour. On the kernel I am on now, it is more like 1% per 1.5-2 hours.

And when I make calls on EDGE, on the current kernel, I get like 5-6 mins at the least per 1%. I made two calls today morning lasting 30m12s and my battery is down by 5%. Point to note, bluetooth was on during these calls.
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
Yup...I'll probably go back to the other kernel later on...it's just hard to change when I'm getting download speeds as i am..and the gps is flat out perfect for me..It's been a very long time since everything was melding this good. Seems like there are always trade offs to be had..and right now..my only issues I have are of the cosmetic nature..

[Captivate Android Development] yeungj:
Hi,

Just wondering if are these the ones under system\fonts?

Thanks again.

EDIT: I just tried and they are the ones from system\fonts. And found out I needed to reboot the phone after dropping them in. Thanks again.
[Captivate Android Development] rjblack11:
I flashed 5.6 last night(no-wipe/no kernel) and havent really tested it yet. This morning I woke up and tried to make a phone call and got force close. Oddly enough the call still goes through but eventually just hangs up. Incoming is the same way: once the call is answered I get a force close, lose service for a split second and then everything seems to work again. I have been able to receive texts but havent tried sending them. I am currently backing up apps with titanium backup but not system data, flashing back to stock, then flashing base 5.6 with speedmod kernel. Im goin to try to restore apps and not system data(never did it in the first place) but hopefully it will work. I'll update shortly.

ps. I still got 10 min left for download of base 5.6 so if anyone knows how to solve before i do this it would be greatly appreciated
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Flash 5.5 and be on it till dilli or anyone else tries it out and comes back saying what u got was a random non-repeating issue. This way u r covered to some extent.

Over 5.5, u can flash the no-wipe version of 5.6, after taking a nandroid backup. If 5.6 still causes issue, u can always revert back to the 5.5 backup, saving u some time.

When u refer a post, pls refer using post number. Ur 8.00 AM turned out to be 7.00 AM on my screen. So referring my time isn't a foolproof option.

Also, though his signature says cosmic 76 v5, its more like a customized version of the same. cosmic 76 v5 does not have that battery indicator.

Hi Diablo009,

Just wondering which kernel you are currently using? I'm pretty much have the same battery issues with speedmod.

Thanks,

Click on the place where it shows the kernel, and it will take u to the kernel thread.

[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
xcal vs sucker punch? which and why?
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
I prefer xcal's. Fast, stable, and battery life is great. I don't feel the need to overclock and I prefer Voodoo over ULF.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
how good battery are you getting?
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
so sucker punch is not voodoo? cant i install xcal then go back to sucker and get voodo?
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
Sucker is ULF. You can choose it to convert everything to ext.4 (like voodoo) but I just like voodoo better. I find it less choppy in my scrolling. Placebo maybe? Battery life is subjective, but basically, around 15-19hrs (with about 2-2.5 hrs screen time) will leave me at around 40%. By then, I'm headed for bed, so it's back on the charger.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
the new bat life is ok, but depressing... On 5.1 i was getting 50+ hours, i was beating my buddies iph4 in the office!... Now battery life is decent on 5.3 but its not like it was.. Oh well..

If sucker can go full ext4 then it is voodoo for all intensive purposes lol.. But placebo maybe :)

Since the 5.x roms everything has been butter smooth anyway. Just waiting for my battery to get to 100% before I flash.

Everything changes to fast and their is ridic new names for kernals.. it is so silly I can't keep track because of how busy I am... People should stop making up ridic names for ****.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
No offense but what is the real world need for a battery that last 50 hrs? I mean if it last 18 hrs most if not all users should be able to find a charger
[Captivate Android Development] majinzen:
Probably the REAL reason I use his kernel. :D
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
you are mostly right, but once I started getting tha I got a taste... And I liked it... lol...

[Captivate Android Development] zerkai:
Am I the only one that has a problem with this ROM when trying to wake the screen up with the power button there's a 2 second or so delay? I'm trying out Darky's rom right now and it's pretty instant.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
you running setcpu?
[Captivate Android Development] zerkai:
Not sure if it was running but I did have it installed. I'm coming back to di11i 5.5 now, I'll see.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
setcpu can seriously **** **** up especially unlock speed I find... It really is not needed at all with these roms.
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
The point is a simple one really...there are times under some circumstances where one can not get to a charger...hence the reason to have a set up rom/kernel/modem...to give the ultimate best performance it can. Getting 50+ hours on a charge means for that persons phone it is out performing most other combinations...

I look for 6 main things on any given combination..then a whole slew of axillary things to be able to determine the best for me.This is after seeing everything is 100% stable.

1) Signal strength..not only for voice (all modes...edge..2g 3g 3.5 g and H)..but also for download speed on (b)data on the 3g-H network (c) and also for the wi-fi side as well.

2) Voice clarity

3) Battery life

4) GPS

5) Video Quality

6) Audio Quality

Blue Tooth capability is figured into the core for me and should be inclusive in any rom I use..If it doesn't work..then I say that rom is not 100% capable and refuse to use it.

5.5 works 100% for me in all of the above...and now it is all cosmetic changes..

is it possible to edit the auto brightness controls, if so how? or can I make a suggestion?

Sorry if this has been answered...

Im currently running Cognition 2.1.6. Do I need to flash back to something else first, or can I directly upgrade from Cognition?

thanks
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
whats the suggestion? but if its about auto brightness being dim, its speedmod kernel. hardcore made adjustments so that its dimmer when it should be, and brighter when it should be.

his newest kernel(k13a-im running it on my phone now, and its excellent), lets you disable his altered brightness settings. you can also adjust to his warm/cold/normal versions on the fly, which is pretty great(set both of these up in recovery)

im a big fan of the speedmod kernel, i use to pretty much always overclock my phone, but with my rom plus this kernel, it really is not needed to overclock anymore. theres so much you can adjust with hardcores kernel, i really think its the best out there(for me anyway). its fast-really fast, great battery life, and its stable. and i dont have to worry about undervolting to get decent battery anymore cause its not overclocked.

its recommended to odin 1 click back to stock JF6 2.1.

if you decide not to and just flash the rom, if you run into any problems just odin to stock, and then reflash my rom.
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
diablo and mac- i know you guys are still on 5.5(i think anyway), heres a services.jar that will fix the button backlights.

not a whole lot changed from 5.5 to 5.6- this was the biggest thing, so this will bring you up to date.

this is only the services.jar, it wont affect anything else.

this is really for anyone still on 5.5-just flash this.

Loving the rom but for some reason i cant use sgs tools on the lbs test section, it force closes. Any advice or what could be the problem? :D

whats with the stripped of apk style, its kinda a ***** to reinstall everything?
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
Oh crap, i missed that part.... Went back and checked and your right.... Thanks for the quick response :D
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I personally wud recommend flashing to stock before any full/new rom flash. Others may agree or not, but this is my personal preference, and I am willing to spare the extra 5-6 mins this step brings in and avoid the unnecessary headaches that might potentially creep in.

dilli, can you give any input on why the battery life has changed so dramatically between the version updates? I know its not just me because multiple users are reporting the same thing. I could get 50+ with 5.1, but its back to the normal 20+ if I'm lucky on 5.6.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
This is strange. I checked today.

2h34m display on

55m48s phone calls

14h42m standby

My battery is at 30%. I thought this is considered fine under the normal usage.
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
some people want the bare minimum, some dont. i dont use half of the default applications, and a lot of the apk's are not needed period. so i removed every unnecessary apk and file i could, just so theres no extra stuff running that doesnt need to be. if you want all the default stuff, all you have to do is flash the add on in post 3. you dont have to reinstall anything
[Captivate Android Development] bclark:
+1 Personally I normally uninstall almost the whole add-on pack with each rom update. Hell my uninstall normally takes longer than my batch restore.

I did delete the ringtones. I thought that was going to be a part of 5.6 or did I misunderstand?
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
its missing the voltage app :).

but di11 for real 5.1 = 50+hrs battery... all other versions 25-30 hrs :( whatsup?

[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
Recalibrate your battery it to a different rom/kernel...

Every time you change anything on these phones you have to do this.Every kernel and every modem draws differently from the battery therefore every modem/kernel change requires it to be done have the optimum battery life. This includes deleting the batt_stats bin folder and letting it repopulate with a

fully

charged battery,and then letting the battery discharge completely a few times and charging to full..not just when the I9000 rom shows it's full...and this is without any bump charging in between....This way you will enjoy a longer battery life...provided your phone likes the combination. Sometimes what is provided doesn't always work best for your phone..and it helps to have all of your favorite kernel/modems files on hand to add back into it along with the wi-fi fixes.

There are also some apps to monitor your phone and what is using the battery up...
