IF it were me (and it has been too many times) I would go back to stock..Master Clear and re flash 10.2
[Captivate Android Development] jwebster:
Kinda thot that a compleye redo

would be the best option to cure the glitch. Thinking back, I don't think I've had a low power shutdown on the cappy ever. Has anybody else let their phone go to low power shutdown? Any report for good or bad?

Thanks for the feedback!

[Captivate Android Development] KreacherComfort:
Downloading now. Looks great! I wanted a good 2.2 experience that kept the touchwiz feel and this looks like it.
[Captivate Android Development] thehyecircus:
Couple of questions.

1. Any news on when Perception will be upgraded to 2.2.2? It fixes the text messaging bug.

2. What's the best Wireless Hotspot app for Android, or Perception?
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
1. Depends when Samsung leaks a 2.2.2 build...

2. Built in Mobile AP, in Wireless Settings :)
[Captivate Android Development] thehyecircus:
Is there any way to make a link to Mobile AP in programs, or should I just remember its location?
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Its location is really easy to remember, Settings > Wireless (first option) > Mobile AP :)
[Captivate Android Development] PAulyhoffman:
There is an app in the market that is basically a shortcut. I put it on my home screen and when you click it it simply goes to the settings

This is what it does
[Captivate Android Development] jwebster:
I’m a late comer to Perception. Using my phone extensively for work, and as I was sooo happy on Cog 2.3b6, I waited to make my next leap. I’ve been following the Devs, reading all the threads about the various roms and watching as they get refined, seeing how the users responded to their installs etc. Since it’s not just for sport, I wanted to make the best decision.

I live a ways out in the county in a wooded valley, in a very thin coverage area. Some mobile phones don’t work at all in my house. Cog 2.3b6 was noticeably better than stock, and a nice improvement over b3, but still had limits. On b6 I would pick up a nearby Verizon tower and get Edge service in a few places in my house, and there are two places in the house where the phone is ok and would show 3g, UNITL NOW…ON P10.2 ITS ALL CHANGED.

MY GOODNESS DG  DID YOU SNEAK OVER TO SW MO IN THE NIGHT AND BUILT A TOWER NEAR MY FREAKIN HOUSE?

UTTERLY AMAZING PERFORMANCE from my lil cappy on P10.2_JK4 after a trouble free flash.

Last night I streamed some old fav music viddys in bed off the You Tube. This has never worked before. GPS is faster locking and better than ever. Web pages are faster than ever. P10 comes across on my cappy as very smooth and solid. Having mapped the towers near my home, the little H must be coming off the ATT tower about 3 miles north. Whatever you and your cohorts did, please note that installing your p10.2 ROM has made my cappy an AWESOME BEAST.

Wife used to flaunt her iPhone. NO MORE, lil cappy on P10 rules the roost.

I know I’ll get over by battery glitch I went on about earlier. Thanks so much to you maestro DG, and to everyone who contributed to this ROM, for the outstanding work!

Now to the donate button to put a lil dough in the fund. I prefer the dark lagers myself. Next trip I get to SLC I want to meet up and bend elbows in unison. Hehe. Enjoy and keep on ROCKIN!

Just a note of a bug I found in 10.2 build.

- When in wi-fi ( I know, I got it working somehow ), if you try to download a picture from a message, it doesn't download. It will stick to "downloading" indefinitely.

[Captivate Android Development] Malorkus:
I upgraded to Perception 10.2 a few days ago. It's mostly great, but I have a few issues to report. As background, this is the first i9000 based ROM I've flashed. Previously I used Cognition with no issues whatsoever. I removed my SIM card during the flash and the process seemed to go smoothly.

1) I have a Microcell at home to compensate for ****ty AT&T coverage. With previous ROMs the phone connected to it perfectly. Now it is extremely spotty. I've seen that it can connect to the Microcell, but it seems to prefer not to most of the time, choosing 1 bar reception instead. I'm wondering if this has to do with HSUPA being enabled-- is the radio prioritizing 1 bar of HSUPA over 4/5 bars of 3G?

2) Every few minutes I get a "Refreshing SIM data" message popping up.

3) Widgetlocker now turns the display on when I push the volume rocker buttons, even though it's set not to. With Cognition it behaved normally. On the other hand the stock lockscreen acts normally. This may be a Widgetlocker bug, but I thought I'd mention it..
[Captivate Android Development] Schmarvin:
1. Your Microcell actually works? Mine dies after about 3 weeks, then I have to restart it.

2. It may be the SIM card itself, but before you get it replaced for free, try the following if you can:

- Try using someone else's Microcell.

- Try switching your network data off then back on. (Hold the power switch a few seconds, a menu will pop up, then select the option)

- Make sure you have build 10.2

- Check the plate of the SIM card, if it has black spots on it, it may have been damaged. Try using a pencil to write on it, and then use the eraser to wipe it all off.

- If all else fails, you may either want to try a new build or go back to Cognition. Both are made by the same awesome guy. If the problem persists with different roms, I recommend getting your SIM replaced. I know my local AT&T store does it for free.

3. There may be an incompatibility with the widget/app and the rom. You will need to ask the developer himself (developer of the app).
[Captivate Android Development] harshstonewhite:
sorry if its been mentioned but i couldnt find it, but is there a way to disable the home screen from rotating without turning off auto rotate?
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
The HSDPA may be the cause, try disabling it with SGS tools, etc. Or go into "Menu", "Settings", "Wireless and Network", "Mobile Networks", and un-check "Use packet data". Make sure your APN is correct.

For widget locker make sure it is compatible with Froyo firmware 2.2.1, there are apps that aren't updated from 2.2 to 2.2.1.

If all else fails and you have other things acting weird you can always reflash but I believe it is the HSDPA causing the issue. :cool:

Perception Build 10.2!!
[Captivate Android Development] kirbo20:
I've tried running this OS twice now and both times my internal SD card turns to read only and it shows up under My Computer as a CD ROM any ideas on what might be causing this? I flash back to stock and the memory card is fine. I flash Perception Build 10.2 and after a few days my memory card is read only again.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] harshstonewhite:
I'm using the launcher thats built into the 10.1 I believe its a mod of the touchwiz launcher. I didn't see an option in the regular settings.
[Captivate Android Development] harshstonewhite:
Did you flash the stock rom with odin first? Thats wierd, I never had that problem. I usually backup the internal sd and do a master clear and format it while in the stock (with oden) before I flash the new rom with cwm. Hope that helps.

Calendar issue

Last night I decided to flash one of the speedmod kernals over fb2.04. It failed miserably and I ended up having to Odin back to stock and re-flash P10.2 and fb2 again. I restored everything with TiBU (apps and data, no system data).

My question or concern is about my calendar. It is now asking me to sync with google, facebook or exchange. I don't ever remember seeing that before. If I do sync with my Google account (which I never use), will all of my appointments and stuff still be in there? Like I said, I've never done it before so I wonder if I lost all of my stuff even though I restored with TiBU.

Thoughts, ideas or comments welcome.

[Captivate Android Development] TorqueWrench001:
Try flashing the kernel with CWM instead of SGS kernel flasher if you are using that. I believe there is an issue with SGS and some custom roms/kernels. Did you check the links I posted?

I don't know much, except this issue has been posted numerous times, Perception and Firebird threads. This worked for me and others. The search feature is your friend.
[Captivate Android Development] CuriousTech:
You should sync everything with gmail. It makes life easier and works well. I once added some numbers on the phone and such while watching my account on the PC and saw it changing without even refreshing the page.

If you backed up system data from Perception 10 and you want to restore on Perception 10, then all the green items can be safely restored. Really any of the same version of Android.

I know this may have already been asked, but at 250+ pages, this thread's a beast. I notice that my battery drains excessively using this ROM. I had it go from 85% to 0% and dead in the span of 5 or 6 hours in standby. no usage, no phone calls, just in my pocket. Does anyone else have this issue? I'm doing a battery recalibration just to be sure, but My battery has always been fine using other ROMS.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Switch to another kernel and maybe modem, I like KP1 for modem
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
I noticed this also. I just switched to a different ROM and modem, and I'll check back.
[Captivate Android Development] asrrin29:
1h6m36s from 100% to 82% with my checking the battery status a total of three times, no calls, wifi and GPS disabled, email to check every half hour. Cell standby accounts for 56% of my usage. When I woke up this morning, I had 100% battery, and the instant I removed the charger it dropped from 100% to 98%. no 99%, straight to 98%. I plugged it back in, it charged back up to 100% and unplugged and it did the same thing again!

What the heck is going on here?:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
The 100% to 99% is normal for 2.2.1. That's not a problem. The issue is the battery drain. I'm going to post over at the Team Whiskey forums and see what DG has to say, if he's not already on here.
[Captivate Android Development] asrrin29:
Thanks. I saw the first post got updated and went over to TW forums and registered to post, and my post is under review, so hopefully DG will see it at some point.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Try a different modem or kernel until something works.
[Captivate Android Development] asrrin29:
Thanks, I'm doing that now. What modems and kernels do you recommend? I just tried the UXJL1 modem and that just kept rebooting my phone, so now I'm restoring and looking for a different one to try.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
The best ones I've heard about are: JL2, JL3, JK4, and one or two others. I'm using speed mod with JK4, I think and its working pretty nice. There is a modem thread you might want to look at.

Oh, and kernel wise you have Pheonix, Glitterballs, and Speedmod for top ones. Speedmod is great for battery and still silky smooth. Plus Hardcore keeps it updated pretty regularly.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Should've tried Cognition whhen it was over 1200 pages after editing. lol. :)

On the 98% battery firmware 2.2.1 for the cause, well documented issue.

Make sure your wifi is set to sleep when screen is off or disabled altogether if you don't use it. The wifi seems to take a chunk out of the battery and doesn't adhere to the settings all of the time. It is being looked into. I know for me it was the issue but I still got way more that 5 or 6 hours on a charge, unless using the hell out of it.

Make sure that you don't have apps/services syncing in the background by going through all of your options and doing a logcat if you have the android sdk and an understanding adb. :cool:

v10.3 is LIVE

changelog in the op
[Captivate Android Development] GYIVIjuNkY:
and i literally just downloaded and installed perception 10.2 and all my apps two minutes ago..
[Captivate Android Development] Malorkus:
Thanks for the suggestions. The other stuff I can live with but not having it connect reliably to the microcell is a real issue for me. I disabled HSDPA using SGS tools and it seems to have no effect. Same with packet data. However, If I put the phone in airplane mode and then take it out again, it connects to the microcell properly, at least for a while. Two days in row now I've noticed when I charge it overnight, in the morning it is no longer connected to the microcell. Since this ROM is based on a non-US ROM release, I'm wondering if it simply can't be expected to work reliably with a US microcell. Can anyone confirm that Perception or another I9000 based ROM connects reliably to their US microcell?

Your phone and your microcell are the 2 common factors.

Have you gone back to what you had when it worked?

If it doesn't you just implicated something (file wise) on your phone or the microcell went TU unless of course the microcell works with other phones then you'll know it's something on your phone thats not getting cleared or wiped, etc. :cool:

Thinking back, I don't remember issue with Perception 9.x and Axura 2.5, but I had JUST stepped into this around that time. With the ROMS bouncing between modems and kernels and 2.2/2.2.1, I'm trying to compare everything to try and pin it down.

Also Posted on TeamWhiskey

I'm having a problem that I just can't figure out. I use my phone allot in my car via BT. My car "Sync" allows me to connect my phone and play media over BT. When my Cap connects, it stays connected for 90 to 120 seconds and then it disconnects. Only the phone part disconnects. I still can switch my car to the BT media and listen to music on my phone. I've tried changing settings to see if anything helps but nothing does. If I reboot my phone and then establish a connection it will stay connected for the duration. If I disconnect and later reconnect it will stay connected for 90 / 120 sec and disconnect again.

I’ve tried different kernels to see if it was something in the kernel but they didn’t help. I’ve also totally wiped my phone and reinstalled P10.2 from scratch to make sure nothing was corrupted but problem persists. In the previous version of Perception I didn’t have this issue.

Any suggestions / help?

As I said before Great job on the ROM!
[Captivate Android Development] Malorkus:
I just checked and the ROMs you listed all use the I9000 JK4 modem. Perception 10.3 just switched to JL2 modem, so I just flashed it to see if anything changes. I'll update when I have time to test it at home this evening.

BTW, tazman171: my Microcell works fine with my wife's dumbphone, so it's definitely a ROM issue.
