Bah! Now I'm definitely going to wait it out. Dangit! ;)
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I too am trying the Speedmod Kernel. My issue isn't battery life.(I get about 14 hours of unrationed use which is plenty good enough for my use. Howver my camera and 360 camera is intermittent sometimes giving me resolution errors. With GB's kernel it worked fine initially but it became intermittent so I installed the email.apk from 10.1 and still had some issues so i am trying this kernal. So far so good.

Battery life is not as good with the ROM generally speaking but I don;t need more than a waking day of power and carry an extra battery, You almost have to with these devices anymore.

Bump Charge

Has anyone successfully done a bump charge on this ROM? My cappy fully boots when plugging it in if it is turned off.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
um. there has already been a 2.4 and 2.4.1, they were based off vibrant roms.

thats not saying that he wont continue with that....but he has already mentioned that it will be COG3.0...
[Captivate Android Development] subserved:
Using Perception 10.1 build, Kernel: Firebird #37 and I am running into the same problem. Charge up to 100%, unplug and immediately goes to 98%.
[Captivate Android Development] paracutin:
I am currently running 10.1 with Glitterballs kernel and JL2 modem. Can I replace the stock modem.bin and zImage in 10.1, re-zip then use it to flash? It would save the time of installing both of those after flashing stock 10.1.

What about pulling .apk's from another 2.2.1 ROM and placing them in the /system/app folder? Would they install correctly?

Don't want to brick my phone but I don't know any way to try it besides just doing it.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
It is an issue in the 2.2.1 code, ignore it, since it can't apparently be fixed atm. It is an issue with ALL 2.2.1 kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] timmytim:
Oh, crap....... My bad :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] donegan6339:
LBS Test mode

I am running 10.1 and glitterball's kernel. flashed the telus modem and then went to try and reset my gps stats. When I dial the string of characters, they just disappear and the phone stays in the dialer. Any suggestions?
[Captivate Android Development] kppanic:
SGSToolBox.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
You can replace the modem.bin and zimage and repack the ROM and flash. That will work fine. When it comes to the apps, just make sure they are 2.2.1 compatible.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
This should not be too surprising... slower=longer battery life, faster=shorter battery life. That's the way things work.
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Had some crazy weird randomness the last couple days so I flashed GB kernel. In love, DG and GB kernel are a match made in heaven. Enjoy the beer money mate!
[Captivate Android Development] pinoymutt:
Sorry, don't mean to post in the Perception thread, but dg or anyone else know why the Cog thread all of a sudden was locked/closed?
[Captivate Android Development] ApplCobbler:
Okay, so I flashed it onto my Captivate yesterday.

Since then, I haven't been able to recieve a phone call at all. The phone rings for a quarter of a second and then it goes away, and my signal drops to zero out of nowhere and says I have no signal/no 3g/ emergency calls only. It doesn't even register that there was a missed call. Right after that I get my signal and 3g back.

Is this an issue with the modem or the ROM or what? And has anyone else gotten this?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
these are quotes from a few pages back..3 or so.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
I'm confused. I thought the COG roms were always based off of Captivate roms. I thought that was the main difference between the COG development and the Perception development.
[Captivate Android Development] pinoymutt:
Hahahah, I've been playing catch up on some of my threads, and that's what I figured, but wasn't sure. I guess I needed to read back a few more pages...!

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] pinoymutt:
Cog is definitely a Captivate ROM. The recent exception was 2.3b7 which was a little "deviation off the path", but b8 brought it back to the Captivate base (at which about that time DG stated that Cog will continue to be a "pure" Captivate ROM while Perception and future others would be more cutting edge).

Last I saw as well the next version was slated to be 3.0, but we'll all find out soon enough I suppose.
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Cog 3.0 ??? Ah man you mean I gotta flash again?! HECK YEAH! Where's my usb cable... So everytime my wife see's my phone hooked up to my laptop she either smacks the back of my head or just asks why. Simply reply: "Honey it's a DG rom"
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
Actually the problem was the SIM card can go in backwards
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Okay, that was my understanding too, that's why I was surprised by this post saying two releases of COG were based on Vibrant roms:
[Captivate Android Development] ryboto:
Anyone know where I can get a link to the firebird kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
I think, for the most current release of the kernel, you will need to pull the zImage and redbend out of the rom and then stuff them into a suitable CWM zip. I don't believe DG has posted a ready to go kernel only file.
[Captivate Android Development] timmytim:
Ha! My wife feels the same way........ I also reply the same
[Captivate Android Development] donegan6339:
Toolbox sent me to the dialer as well.
[Captivate Android Development] gutowscr471:
So is this thread closed. Haven't seen any updates since 10.1. Is DG cooking something new? Is there a new thread to view?
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Most likely devoting his time to Cog3.0 The old forum was closed. Not gonna lie, I will give the new Cog a try. I just can't get enough of DG's rom's.
[Captivate Android Development] eramming:
I think I finally have this thing running like I want.I'm using 10.1 with the glitter balls 12_23 kernel along with my uv settings set at 125,100,100,100,75,50 oc set at 1200. Battery problems under control and so far 2 days of no charger death. Thumbs up !
[Captivate Android Development] gutowscr471:
I know...DG rocks. Love my phone now.
[Captivate Android Development] mjgunn:
So I asked this question a few pages back but didn't get an answer. Let's say I want to try cog 3.0 when it pops up (or whatever other rom here on the boards I would like to check out), am I ok to just clockwork backup my phone as it is now (working great), flash back to stock, flash cognition, and then if I don't like it just clockwork restore my perception install?
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Hmm, I may try those. Mine has been solid accept some games lock up and I have to battery pull. Slice It hates me :(

Edit: Bad ju ju. I will stay with stock settings, I can live without slice it.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Just FYI, I read a few weeks ago that you can avoid a battery pull by holding vol UP and POWER together for 10-15 seconds and it forces a reboot, even when the phone seems to be locked solid and you think it needs a battery pull. I've never had this tip fail in the weeks since I read about it :)
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
xScope 5.35 paid version isn't mentioned, you didn't try the one that blows all of them away. Haven;t tried v. 6 yet but 5.35 is just hands down the best IMO. Tabbed browsing, supported srteaming before Froyo, file (task) manager, user agent control, theming, pin zoom, etc., etc., oh, it's fast as hell too. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Yes, but if you read the change log on the dl site it will show you the a few times ; 2.4, 2.41/vibrant based then reverted back 2.3b4 and 2.3b7 was I-9000 (I think) then quickly reverted back. Installed just about all of them too at one point or another. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] xtremesv:
+1

Perception is THE ROM and DG is THE MAN.
[Captivate Android Development] Dino.:
Now that you mention that, could the modem be causing background noise or a "annoying sound" at set intervals with the headset plugged it? has anyone else experienced such a behavior?
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Ha Ha, I've been telling people to just wait a few days, stats will rework themselves and battery life almost always improves. Most never listen though. I've always had good battery life except when I bought the phone and it was 100% stock for a week. I've never reset the stats or used a 3rd party task killer or "battery" saver to have good results.

I have noticed with P10.1 that I had to enable the sleep "When screen turns off" option under the advanced wifi settings or my battery was run down quickly. I never used this with any rom I've had before as the setting usually wouldn't stick or it wouldn't automatically re-enable when when turning the screen back on. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] timmytim:
Update from previous post:

I have replaced the Phoenix kernel with the Speedmod K12k-500hz

I have replaced the JK4 modem with the Jl2 modem

I have disabled the HSDPA data mode with this guide

My quick notes about the changes:

I was having battery drain before, even after calibration, reflashes, etc. With this ROM and the 3 changes above, I have noticed a big improvement today in battery life. My Wifi and GPS was on all day with screen brightness set to about 60%. I cleared battery stats this morning.

Unplugged phone at 6:00am MST (phone showed 99%, known bug)

Listened to music for 30 min drive to work

Sent about 50-60 texts

Installed, uninstalled, and played with a few random apps

Checked my email several times an hour

Added, configured, and then removed random widgets

Checked Facebook crap 3-4 times

Other random sh!t

Listened to music from 30 min drive home from work

It is now 5:55pm MST (just shy of 12 hours) and I still 52% battery left.

This kernel and modem combo, along with disabling HSDPA (4G), are working good for me in my particular case. I have a Captivate 1008 build.

The phone is fast and I haven't came across any bugs yet other than my headphone output stopped working once. A reboot fixed the problem.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
HSPA isn't 4G. Don't buy into false advertising!
[Captivate Android Development] timmytim:
Hmmm, you're right. I guess it would more accurately be considered 3.5G :D
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Getting the flash itch.... want to try the new versions DG has been tweeting about.
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
It also is not the 3G+ we've been hearing about as well... but 3MB down and 1.5MB up is fine for me now.
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
One week with out a flash. I am happy. Some apps are not working like Best Buy and Mafia Wars. Not a huge deal.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Read the change log and you will see that indeed they were, hell, I flashed them and can tell you from PE that they were, they were buggy and therefore DG put it back to Captivate sources and started playing with... Perception!.. for non captivate source based roms for the captivate.

Read before you go saying something isn't right cause you didn't think so. From DG's Full Change Log, and I quote;

"v2.3b3 - v2.4 (11/10/2010)

Rebuilt on T959UVJK2 (Yes, it's a Vibrant rom)

Fully DeOdexed

Fully ZipAligned

LZMA compressed (coming future release)

CogKernel + JJ4 modem.bin:"

Ooh, more:

"v2.4.1 - v2.3b4 (11/15/2010)

REVERTED TO JI6/JJ4

CogKernel + JJ4 Modem:"

And yet more:

"v2.3b6 - v2.3b7 (12/08/2010)

CogKernel2(based on jpm sources) + JK3 Modem:

raspdeep's 1280Mhz OC/UV v217 kernel patches

hardcore's kernel patches

Voodoo LagFix updated (c1f5dd5d1a3c2216a381)

Added ClockWorkMod Voodoo Edition

xcaliburinhand's headset jack fix

HSUPA Support

Removed AT&T World Phone screen (you still see it for about a second)"

Hmm, that was 2.3b7..., followed by:

"v2.3b7 - v2.3b8 (12/17/2010)

Added supercurio's stock+Voodoo stable 5.x for Captivate

Added JI6 Modem

Removed CogKernel2

Fixed bluetooth static

(Decided I need to keep this rom pure captivate)"

See where a little reading from the page of the very place you download the rom from can really clear up confusion, mis-information and mistakingly thinking some one is wrong when in fact they ; Pirateghost; correctly answered the question? It took me literally 5 minutes to read it, copy, paste and edit it. :cool:

Read, Read, Read, Read + a little comprehension!
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Hey DG, trying out Cog3 or ANYTHING you have cooking.

I got a question: for this ROM, can you add supercurio's new sound fix? It SOUNDS (hehe) amazing, and I'd really like to try it. Music lover here.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Heh heh, he posts while tightening the tourniquet on his Captivate while checking for a good clean port! Where's my fix, I need binary crack/heroin NOW! :eek:

That sound about right Haloruler? LOL :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
So a quick note for people, the r64 ginger borg theme from docs rom works on perception 100%, as does the meta morph darkness theme from the theme sticky. But I'll admit it, ginger borg is awesome. FLASH THEMES WITHOUT VOODOO ENABLED!!!¡!¡! Unless using meta morph
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Yeah addictions are fun. Haven't flashed in days, about to flash Serendipity waiting for something DG. It's SOMETHING

Also Speedmod kernel is great for battery
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Instead flash a theme. Then enjoy
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
My ROM is acting up, wanna reflash
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Was so bored that I have been trying so many themes... truely i'm trying to soft brick so I have a reason to flash :D
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
What's you do to get it to act up? Mines fine after a flash of perception. Course that's after I gbed it to charge death...
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Flashed earlier today with voodoo enabled with zero issues...
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Flash gbs kernel and charge death it. Soft bricks REAL fast...found that out the hard way, so now I'm running speed mod and the telus modem. Awesome combo.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Wifi is buggy, getting random lag after messing around too much. It has been my test bed for days.

Same, always flash everything but ROMs with Voodoo on.

GB's kernel worked perfectly for me, no charge deaths. Used it for a few days before going over to SpeedMod today
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Gave me wifi bugs and gps issues, but flashing it with voodoo off fixed it.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Guess I've been lucky as I've never disabled voodoo to flash a theme and have never used MM, just through Rom managers ClockWork Mod for voodoo.

Flashed theDarkness2.5.1 without doing it just a few days ago and the theme is made specifically for Perception as well as downloads specific for Cog, MM, Assonance and Axura.

Maybe it's because the theme is specific to the version of the rom now that I think about it. :cool:

[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Did you disable Voodoo? Also you might need a different update.zip depending on which rom you're coming from, there were some issues with CWM not jiving with Perception earlier on I believe. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] CuriousTech:
For SpeedMod, i897 or i9000 Kernel? It's kind of confusing since this is an i9000 based ROM but i897 hardware.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
I897 Kernel.....
[Captivate Android Development] Desg90000:
perception 8 and yes i tried with and without the voodoo lag fix
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Kernel and modem have to be based on the same, I-9000 kernel needs I-9000 modem; I-897 kernel needs I-897 modem etc. Actually SGH-897

Oh, I see what you're asking, it's an I-9000 kernel reoriented for the Captivate, I repeat an I-9000 kernel tweaked for the Captivate :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
They're both i9000 kernels, both based on the JPX source I believe. But the i897 version is just built for i897 hardware, even when you run i9000 software. It is reoriented for us too
[Captivate Android Development] redapex:
Sorry, I havent read through this whole thread. Do headset controls work with this build? I jumped over from the old cog kernel builds and just noticed they dont seem to be working for music control.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Yep, there was a huge problem somewhere around Perception 9 where people weren't able to flash with the update.zip CWM made, I believe it was going from P8 to P9.

Try this file: working update.zip and see if that gets youy going. Put it on your internal sd at /sdcard/, rename or copy your old one just in case if you can.

If you can boot to stock recovery (can you?):

Select reinstall packages, usually have to do it twice to get it applied and you'll be in the CWM recovery, then follow @ step 2 below.

If you cant get to stock recovery:

put the file on your internal sd, anywhere, and select the install zip from sdcard option in CWM recovery, browse to your folder, select the file, yes, reboot.

Step 2:

Go back into recovery, go into the advanced options and disable voodoo for the next boot; might take a few minutes btw,

reboot,

verify voodoo is off from that same menu,

then install zip from sdcard,

browse to your perception download and select it,

yes,

it hopefully goes the the text showing the formatting, etc.,

and then you should be hearing some file conversions being talked about, etc. Give it 5 to 10, be patient as it takes a little while.

Hopefully this gets you back to good, I know the steps because it happened to me when I thought voodoo was disabled but CWM hadn't actually done it (the bad one) even though it said it had. Had the exact messages and only able to boot to the messed up recovery exactly as you described. Hopefully I have listed the menus correctly, don't have them in front of me but if not exact they are pretty close.

Was a ***** but hey, I got out of it and this should work for you. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
Darkness was nice, and flashing without disabling voodoo will work, but it can also cause errors that will boot loop. Happened to me earlier today actually. Mm doesn't need voodoo disabled though.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Don't read the whole thread. Read the OP.

"xcaliburinhand's

-headset jack fix"

That simple.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Never had an issue with Darkness on any ROM, never disabled Voodoo either
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Same here, all versions on both Cog and Perception not using MM. I'm not totally disagreeing, :p , there are reasons to disable voodoo when doing even a theme flash but there are just as many people that have meltdowns when disabling voodoo. So, for me, if it works without that step, etc., I won't do it..

Many theme flashes later I've yet to have an issue but we all know how different things can be from phone to phone, so this is just IME and what works for me. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
And me. Flashing Serendipity to prepare myself for DG's ROMs
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
Ok, on my first full day of Perception 10.1 with the Glitterballs kernel and the telus modem. This is my first time ROMing an Android phone, but battery is going worse than stock. Additionally, speedtest has dropped by over a gig upload compared to previous tests, but GPS seems to have peaked some. This could also be due to the rather useful GPS Booster app I recently downloaded. I'll give it another day or so, but got any better tips for battery life? And yes, I did reset the battery stats after flashing everything in.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Wait a few days

Recalibrate, not just wipe stats

Speedtest doesnt measure in GB, it measures in KB or MB.
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
By calibrate he means let it die, then full charge, then die, for at least three times. I get phenomenal battery life with stock perception. Also adjust your brightness. Stock it is auto and set high.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Or charge to 100%, wipe stats, let die, charge to 100%. Should be fine then. Keep stats after death/charge.
[Captivate Android Development] biggem001:
i cannot agree with you more about all the battery advice.

once u flash on full batter, let it die if you still aren't getting what you think is right. recharge and recalibrate.

im on my second day of amazing battery. my phone has been unpluged for 16 hours of moderate to heavy use and is at 23%
[Captivate Android Development] CuriousTech:
Yeah, I can't see a theme causing problems with voodoo since it's just framework stuff. Voodoo is filesystem level. Nothing is going to delete the ext4 driver or change mounts/symlinks except for a full ROM flash or an update that's lagfix specific. I'd bet on coincidence.
[Captivate Android Development] o_ssie:
Hi,

I knew those existed but I didnt have them installed and somehow my phone still took a screenshot.. Wanted to know if anyone had a clue how that happened.

When the screenshot occurred, a blue box showed up on the bottom of the screen saying "screen shot taken" or something along those lines
[Captivate Android Development] paracutin:
Would it be possible to add these patches (https://github.com/project-voodoo/sound_kernel_patches) to your kernel so I could use this app (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=806195) for improved sound quality?

Thanks for your time!
[Captivate Android Development] LMSarmiento:
Interesting.... ;)
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Well, admitting you have a problem is the first step to solving it....blah blah blah. :rolleyes:

So admit it, you need binary crack from a green robot to get you and your phone a fix. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] psufan5:
Anyone know if speedmod or firebird runs better on this ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Define better? Firebird is faster, Speedmod sips the battery.
[Captivate Android Development] gibson3659:
"Battery Calibration" is a bit of a misnomer. What you are actually doing is calibrating the stats that drive the battery meter.
[Captivate Android Development] psufan5:
That would be what I was looking for :)
[Captivate Android Development] RaptorOne3:
Well kind of. But you really can't calibrate that. The only thing you can do is clear the stats to obtain new readouts.

It's a straight forward application. It doesn't require calibration. It gives real-time percentile readouts based on the time the phone was turned on and the time the application was accessed...
[Captivate Android Development] skatcat31:
The roms are flashed with a default voltage table. Whenever I flash a new rom and open stats, it's populated with more than a bit of usage.
[Captivate Android Development] RaptorOne3:
MasterClear with Odin erases and replaces ALL data on ISDC.

Try disabling all the apps/accessories first, allow the device to idle with everything disabled for at least 2 hrs to get a proper read out after a flash.
[Captivate Android Development] psufan5:
what is "DGs" Rom you are waiting for?
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
"DGs" ROM is a new ROM variant from the "Data Guy". It has a new kernel that takes advantage of the dual core nature of the I897(b) Captivates. It should deliver at least 50% more speed and use 25% less battery. Let's hope "Data Guy" is listening.
[Captivate Android Development] j.v.fouts:
Cog---> Perception

HELP...........im going to switch from cog to perception do i do it all the same way, i mean flash with odin, root, install or what. Any help is appreciated thanks.
