Holy Schamoleans!

This thread scares the hell out of me and I haven't even had one of the problems listed. What are you people doing to your phones? :eek:

Don't listen to a word I am saying, just follow what I am typing.

1. Coming from a Custom ROM? (unlagfix that bee awtch)

2. I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0.exe (ODIN version that has never failed me in 43 flashes...44, 45, 46, 47, 48)

3. Booty boot boot, put USB in mass storage with debug on.

4. 2 finger that bag and jam that USB into the pc.

5. ODIN master clear.

6. Root the hell out of her.

Wash your hands

7. Check the time with some Clockworks and flash it while your at it.

8. Time for the shocker, 2 on the pink and 1 on the stink. (3 button recover you dirty little things)

9. Update zipper.

10. Your now checking the time with Clockworks.

11. Run that new zipper of yours down and reboot.

Voila! Purrs like a kitten........... well kinda. Last step. Find ya some korn, grab a kernel you like (I prefer speedball) and flash the hell out of that.

NOW your purring like a kitten.

I have seen sooooo many posts and forum tiffs about "back to stock and master clear"

I DONT FREAKING KNOW IF ITS NECESSARY BUT I HAVE NOT HAD A FAILED BLITHERING SLOBBER MOUTHED ~Dee De Dee~ ROM YET!

Take 10 minutes and clean.

[Captivate General] j.smith:
I noticed the same thing - started happening once I had added a Facebook account. I think it's possibly to do with the fact that the Contacts app now includes updates and such to your contacts from things like a Facebook account if added.

Samsung Keypad

I'm having an issue with long press to get numbers on the Samsung Keypad.

Whenever I select a number by long pressing the top row of the keypad it enters twice. Any of the other symbols enter normally, i.e. once.

Anyone else noticed this?

Rooted Rogers Captivate with stock ROM. I updated last week. I backed everything up w/ Titanium and factory reset my phone. Did the update and rerooted with Super One Click. No problems. Installed Ryan's OCLF and Juice Defender. No problems. Still running fine with... No problems.

Caveat- I have never used custom ROMS and probably won't.

No Problems!
[Captivate General] richuwo11:
I haven't noticed or experienced any of the bugs you guys are listing. I just updated mine using the Odin file from another thread. I'm on the Rogers network, but with an ATT branded phone.

Everything is working great so far. Other than my 3G acting up. The Rogers update added a weird APN and it was causing issues with my existing APNs. I removed it and everything is perfect now.
[Captivate General] VGPod36:
I updated using the official update, and I am getting none of the bugs. Well... some of the bugs I haven't encountered because I don't use those features, such as haptic feedback and voice dailer.

My only gripe so far, isn't a bug. I hate the new keyboard!! It moved the period to the right of the spacebar. I use my right thumb for the space key, so I keep.hitting.a.period.instead.of.a.space! That was exagerated, and not even typed using my phone, but you should get what I mean :p

[Captivate General] C3LL0PHANE:
The only bug I have noticed is that text messages don't always send now. I have to resend them.
[Captivate General] VGPod36:
One bug I have noticed... sometimes the last text message I received changes it's received time to the same time as I send the reply. Example

This is the exchange

Friend says "Hey Sup?" @ 3:23pm

I reply with "Not much" @ 3:37pm

This is what it looks like when I send the message

My reply: "Not much" @ 3:37pm

Friend: "Hey Sup?" @ 3:37pm

This doesn't happen always, but it's annoying when it does.
[Captivate General] rye&ginger:
Any wi-fi issues? Mine sometimes seems to crash/hang and only way to fix it is reboot. I have rooted using 1-click, on stock ROM.
[Captivate General] j.smith:
Just to let people know, my phone isn't suffering from any mis-reported SD card sizes. I have a 16gb card in my phone and both the internal and external cards are properly reported as 16gb each on Windows 7 x64 (when connected in Kies mode).

I have not tried copying over a >2gb file though - but I would assume that to fail anyways since the filesystem is vfat (fat32) which has a 2gb file size limit if I'm not mistaken.
[Captivate General] slntdth93:
FAT32 limit is 4gb i believe. the issue aside from that is i still dont have a gps lock in reasonable time and i have not had time to contact rogers or Samsung.
[Captivate General] j.smith:
Oh, wanted to mention this possible bug...

I was in the browser viewing the costco.ca website and wanted to select some text... brought up the options, clicked more and didn't see "select text" as an option!

I know it was there when I was using 2.1 - but now it seems to be gone? Can anyone else confirm or deny the absence of the "select text" option in the new browser?
[Captivate General] goraps:
See my post here for how to copy from the browser http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10469242&postcount=301
[Captivate General] j.smith:
Ah, you're probably right - 4gb sounds a bit more reasonable... I knew it was something like that (been a while since I had to really deal with fat32 that much).

As for the gps taking a while to get a lock - I have that too, but I had that with 2.1 as well. It seems to take ages to get the first lock when you turn it on - after that if you're using maps or something and your phone goes to sleep and you wake it up, sometimes for me the lock doesn't take as long to re-establish. I hardly use gps since I just don't need it that often so it doesn't bug me that much, however the odd time when I do want to use it I have to admit the wait is very annoying.

I'm thinking I'm noticing the same thing as well. Before I am sure though, I'm going to perform a battery recalibration mentioned in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765656 and see if it makes it seem any better.
[Captivate General] Vik_92_Sandhu:
My web browser is very laggy after updating to Froyo.. anyone else experiencing this problem.. does it have anything to do with that whole memory leak thing?
[Captivate General] rye&ginger:
My issue seems related to running application called 'SnsService' and/or the Facebook app. If I 'tap to stop' those, wi-fi can be re-enabled without reboot. Also Im not sure but it seems to occur either after manually turning wi-fi off for a while, and/or connecting a headset to Bluetooth. I cant reproduce right after a reboot.

SnsService seems to be stuck in 'restarting' state all the time, even after reboot Seems to be a social networking service, but not sure its a part of the Facebook at or its a part of Android. If I tap to kill the app, it wont come back on its own. Not sure whats going on here but Im going to uninstall facebook and see what happens.

My battery life is much better. 2.1 battery life sucked; 2.2 is very good IMO.

My problems on Rogers Froyo 2.2

Here's the bugs I'm having on my phone with Rogers Froyo 2.2:

Internal SD card reporting as a ~2.4G drive. Unable to copy anything to it once it is more than 2G full

During boot-up, something crashes - it does the one vibrate, pause, then two vibrates. I don't know what is force closing. Any ideas?

Wifi doesn't re-connect when I enter a known wifi area. I have to go into my wifi settings, and my phone says it's "scanning". Also it shows a list of SSIDs were in the area where I last was. None of the SSIDs that should be visible are listed. Only way to get my phone to connect is to either turn off, then back on my wifi, or have it re-scan the area. No matter how long I leave it, it will not connect to the wifi network registered.

Apps screen is laggy. If I swipe slowly, the movement of my finger matches the screen movement. If I swipe at a reasonable pace, the screen takes a moment to "catch up". Also, if I pinch to zoom out on the apps screen, scrolling between the thumbnails is very slow. :( Home screen response is very good though. Maybe it has to do with the number of icons on the screen?

I never had any of these issues with 2.1.

LaterZ!

Darren!!
[Captivate General] psyfactor:
Try factory reset

Has you reset the user data and cache after the update? In my case, I had thoses problems after the update and it went away after I deciced to do a factory reset (in recovery mode or in the settings menu).
[Captivate General] Enhanced:
How do you figure something is force-closing? Why can't the phone just vibrate during start up? If you noticed, it also vibrates once when the phone completes shutting down and that's actually a feature on other phones.
[Captivate General] Minawee:
+1 on this...I have to turn wifi on and off EVERY TIME after wake up to get it to work again even though every indication from the phone shows a constant connection that has never been lost.

ALSO:

Now, every time I press the power button to lock the phone, when the screen goes out, there is a VERY audible "click" that comes from INSIDE the phone. It's not a speaker click...sounds more like a relay click you hear in a car (yes, it's THAT LOUD!). The interesting part is that it only does this when I lock the phone...if I press the power button to turn the screen on but I don't unlock the phone, pressing the power button again to turn the screen back off doesn't make any sound whatsoever.

I know my phone definitely did not do this with 2.1, and my wife's Captivate (still also on 2.1) makes no clicking sound. Perhaps there is a connection between this and the wifi issue I'm also having?? It's actually a bit worrying!

Anyone else ever come across this?? :confused:

[Captivate General] goraps:

[Captivate General] Minawee:
Well don't I feel like an arse-hat.

As I read your reply, I'm thinking to myself, "Gee...thanks...like I didn't try that already..." since that was the first thing I *THOUGHT* I unchecked when I first heard the sound and had no effect...I guess it didn't take...

I'll just go back to my corner now and toggle my wifi on and off...again.

Thanks!

-Paul
[Captivate General] Penphoe:
Just seems strange from a haptic UI stand-point to have the same vibration pattern occur during boot-up (typically for me it occurs at the lock screen as the various services and SD cards are initialized) as what happens when something force closes and crashes.

[Captivate General] rackface:
give up on stock rom

I had a number of these issues and gave up fixing them for cognition 3.04... no more problems, it was that simple. Just find a custom ROM that works for you and move on. If you need to flash back to the stock ROM it's pretty easy using ODIN to 2.1 and the kies update to 2.2.
[Captivate General] inningsdefeat500:
If anyone cares

The fix was to put Phone Number w/i the hyphesn so it has to be 6041234567 instead of 604-123-4567
[Captivate General] j.smith:
For anyone following, after doing the battery recalibration, I don't seem to notice any better performance - in fact it may have made issues ever so slightly worse... It doesn't seem to have a good idea of what zero charge is. I had my phone drop really low in a matter of hours doing nothing one day, and then decided to see how long it would go before completely draining, so I left wifi on overnight (at 15%) and came back to it in the morning sitting at 5% - obviously it had enough charge to last the night (sync was on, etc...).

In either case, it seems 2.2 has somewhat worsened the battery performance, though perhaps not by that much (this is really hard to tell if it's a froyo issue, or an issue with a rogue app misbehaving).

Upon further reading, I may have not recalibrated my battery properly - I apparently omitted the part where I should let it drain to 0% immediately after having rebooted from clearing the battery info. That would explain it's inability to read my 0% properly.

I really like this ROM and was just wondering if I should keep the kernel included or if there is another one that could give better performance/battery life.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IISiDeK1CKII:
Lou's Kernel and Ziggy's are the best imho. Lou's kernel was best on battery life where Ziggy's was best for raw power/ speed. Both give pretty good performance and battery life, one is just better than the other in separate ways. If battery is the most important (pretty awesome speed too) than go with Lou's, if you want the best speed (pretty great battery life too), Ziggy's.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PGleo86:
The kernel from stock RLS5 gave me amazing battery life (66% after 8-9 hours of constant use on the stock battery, and same time on the 1750mAh extended got me to 74% with a 1.113gHz overclock)

[G Tablet General] butchconner:
Developers and Users of This Forum:

I have stuck my nose in into what I think is a poor situation -- and if I am wrong you'll just have to fuss at me.

There continues to be a stream of posts not related to development coming into this forum -- and frequently posts that some of us see as related to development and ROMs get pulled by zealous moderators trying to keep this forum clean. Some are plain put in the wrong place and some are misunderstood in their intentions and some should be here.

The big problem -- as I see it -- is that we have two different things at play:

1. The devs need a place to coordinate, criticize, help each other, etc. in pursuit of program and development. Can't be upset over that.

2. But we also have all the ROM and Patch Posts here -- which draws piles of questions, comments, etc. as we all try to have some fun. It is the ROM-related stuff that usually creates the stuff that gets pulled, correctly or not.

I was IMing with a moderator -- svetius -- about a message I put in here and which got transferred to the Vega forum when I wrote it for G-Tab users about the VEGAn ROM. It still wound up in G-Tab General rather than here.

So I proposed to him -- Why not have a "ROMs and Patches" forum where the big stickies at the top of this forum could be placed. Then questions could be asked and answered and info shared related to them without it infringing on the devs. This is the biggest traffic in Developers as we know it now and it involves both devs and folks who are just trying to get stuff for their tabs.

And if "ROMS and Patches" were added, then the devs could do their technical thing here.

I'm not sure XDA will let even a moderator make a change like that. If you look at all the other sites under XDA, most of them use the "General/Accessories/Development/Apps, etc. format. XDA may pressure the moderators to standardize. I hope not when other structure might be better.

I would hope if we asked them they would be somewhat flexible.

If you like my idea -- or can improve on it -- please post here so the moderators can know what we think. This is a democracy and I will go with the majority. But you devs need to let us know what you think so we can try to either help you or forget it.

Don't give me any credit -- let's just get it fixed.

Rev
[G Tablet General] butchconner:
My apologies. If some of the above post doesn't make complete sense it's because I wrote it to the people who use Developers to express an idea I think has merit and to get their opinions.

Even though it was written for the developers, et al, it was pulled out of there without so much as an apology or a comment. Personally I think it was rude and flies in the face of the constructive work a lot of people are doing in support of the G-Tablet. I can't write ROMs, but I can express an idea to help those who can.

And if they are mad because I said their forums are not perfect and suggested a solution -- then I'm sorry for them. I don't think expecting help with improvements we need is too much to ask for.

But I'm not sorry I tried to solve a problem and be constructively helpful. Need more of that around here.
