I cannot find the post ANYWHERE i know i will get trashed for not using the search feature trust me i tried where is the post with going back to stock without odin so you cant brick,
[Captivate Android Development] TRusselo:
no such thing as flashing without risk of bricking.

even cwm has risk.

search "captivate stock rom"

but just do odin3 ONE CLICK if you are ATT
[Captivate Android Development] Wdustin1:
so you dont think that the CWM stock flash is any safer than the Odin i Currently use the stock 3 button fix odin because my phone wont 3 button combo without it i ready the CWM is way safer as it dont flash the bootloader
[Captivate Android Development] sheba611:
I love the new boot animation for 2.9. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] LucasBrazil1984:
If you don't have the three button combo working (there's a fix for that) you need to be very, very careful when flashing. I suggest you apply the fix or get a jig.

[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Haha I didn't expect this. I flashed Dark Fire Blue and I didn't like the notification icons, the battery, the lock screen colour, etc. I flashed the Crysis battery and now it actually looks pretty good just the way I want it to be. Best of all, no FC or boot loops! Let's hope it stays this way.
[Captivate Android Development] brd912:
Hey xtreme,I was just wondering but if samsung released the gingerboard source code,are you planning on building off it?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Yeah those battery mods have the stock ff framework-res.apk with just the battery images swapped. If you flash that on top of a theme, you will end up the green notification bar and progress bars etc. you still keep the themed launcher and all the themed apps.
[Captivate Android Development] TRusselo:
the odin3 1.81 is the first to have the boot loader option and it only flashes if you put a file there. and as far as i know there is only one bootloader used. so it wont change if it does get flashed.

i used to be scared of odin because my first time i thought PDA told me NO so i flashed a rom with PHONE. and messed up my phone. actually PIT told me NO and i brain farted thinking i just clicked PDA. where it was supposed to go.

took me over a month to try odin again. no problems since.

GPS Tracking

Hi guys,

I've been on the Pheonix Rom for a while and just switched to Firefly last week to check out what the buzz is about and I gotta say this is a beautiful rom! Fantastic work!

The issue I noticed today was with the GPS tracking while on the road. The acquiring and locking on satellites worked as quickly as the Pheonix roms did but for some reason the GPS showed I was driving on nearby streets at time and jumped to three to four different streets. I did a search on the forum to see if anyone else experienced the same issue but nothing came up that's specific to Firefly 2.9. Anyone knows if there is any settings or fixes I need to change to have a better GPS tracking? Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] clocke:
Try the "Plumebob" gps fix v1.0 in the dev section... I had amazing results with it.
[Captivate Android Development] psyfactor:
I noticed that voodoo app and firefly mod app are not installed in the full rom package. Is it just me?
[Captivate Android Development] pboy:
Dunno what happened. I flashed the gps fix at recover then it appears that I've lost my modem after reboot. No service even after I reflash jk4/jl3/kb1 modems... Unknown baseband version. Guess I gotta flash the rom again.

I know exactly what your problem is. Did you back-up your /efs/ folder? If not your nv_data.bin files and your imei information is all screwed up. I will try and find some links for you to use so you can attempt to restore a generic IMEI for service use.

Just checking out this thread and thought I'd add my $.02...

First, remove your exchange account and re-add it while connected to wifi. Make sure to elect either 2kb or 5kb for "Email Size". Also, first set the "Amount to Synchronize" to 1 month. You can change this later, but it will help the initial sync as well as you to see if it's working correctly. 4 hours is quite a long time.

This may be bad practice, but I elect to "accept all ssl certificates" on my server settings... Exchange 2010. Phoenix UN 8. Working great for me.

Hope this helps.

Rogers ROM in US

Before I decide to flash this, I just wanted to make sure of one thing and sorry if this is a dumb question...

This is a Rogers based ROM and I"m in the US (Oregon). Will this ROM work correctly out of the box in the US?

Love Team Phoenix's work and was thinking about trying a different flavor.

Thanks in advance,

[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Yes it will work perfectly. I mean, if you check a little, you'll see that many other ppl in the US are on this thread and use FF ;)

[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Is it just me, or anyone else too along with me: I've been noticing that that K13E is using battery slightly more compared to K13D. I've been using 2.9 with K13E since 86+ hours now (without a reboot, and 3 charge discharge cycles, after a battery calibration on clean full rom install) and am seeing slightly reduced battery time.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Battery tweaks arent enabled when you 1st install it. That might help a bit - I do get about 1-2hrs more of battery life from K13D.

Hardcore did mention that K13E should have a slightly better battery life than K13D but every phone is different :rolleyes:

EDIT: My best was 36hrs with K13D with moderate/heavy use. With K13E, I'm at 36hrs atm with the same kind of use and still have 17% left which should last me a good 1-2hrs if I don't play games ;)
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Apparently the update got pulled. Didn't do much searching though...
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
Not sure where you got that info... it's still there.
[Captivate Android Development] jamezz23:
Man that's crazy. At medium use I'm dead the 9 pm which is about 14 hours for me. No way in hell I can get 36+ hours out of my phone. But my medium use is playing games, listening to music and videos so it might be a little more than most people

Lol well either will benifet us. Damns firefly has a special spot in my heart.haha
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I remember enabling it, along with processor tweaks. But I do have android logger turned on (on k13d earlier, and k13e now) for my app protector pro to work. Also I easily get over 24 hours with ~1 hours of calls and ~2 hours of display (display exclusively for data based work (be it wifi or network), not for music or vids). Maybe I need to give it some more time. Maybe I am expecting too much :o
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
24 hours is an easy target for me with calls and 2+ hours of display with data activities like mails, etc. Pull out of charger at 8 am with 97-98%, reach home at 6 with ~40-50% left with ~1 hour of calls and ~2 hours of display. But I do not stream music. Streaming music/vid is a huge battery hog.
[Captivate Android Development] pboy:
Thanks so much! Fortunately I have my efs backed up when I got the phone. I got a signal as soon as I replace the directory with the original files, without even have to reboot!

A quick question about nandroid backup. I still do it once a while but the success of restoring to the original state has not been great for me. The failures I get are either the continue bootup to recovery or back to the previous state but still with the new problem. Am I doing something wrong with that?

I'm going to play around with gps tracking again before I try flashing the fixes again....
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Indeed, full battery circle should help. I took me atleast 3 before I could get this kind of battery life and it started with barely a day of battery.

It also best to do the full batery circles right after you flash and delete you battery stats ;)
[Captivate Android Development] jamezz23:
When I update or install this next rom, do I have to disable my lagfix and my tweaks?
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Indeed! :)

I'm pumped to see what you can do with the gingerbread source code...

I'm a big fan of firefly...I just flashed cm7 last night to try it out again. I'm running cm7 on my HTC Hero.

But I like the differences that came with FF, it's well done. Hopefully a FF 2.3 will rock!
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Hopefully X can cook us a little (BIG) something soon :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] jamezz23:

[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
more than likely if its a jump to gingerbread you would have to odin back to stock...
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Yes.

Although, as Stud mentionned, you will need to Odin if you flash a 2.3 based ROM.

Speaking of random stuff...Do you guys use Rom Manager at all anymore? If so, did the update screw up cwm? I'm afraid to install the update because last time I did it...I couldn't install roms
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Rom manager is completely useless
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
While perusing the thread about gingerbread source release I came across this...

you'd think I'd learn to keep paper towels at my desk while on xda...
[Captivate Android Development] psyfactor:
That's weird because I installed it on 2 captivates and there's no voodoo app nor firefly mod app. I downloaded the full rom from mirror 1 on the web site. Maybe I'll try the others mirrors. I got ff app from op, but don't know how to get voodoo app without reinstalling the whole rom.
[Captivate Android Development] crenshaw1979:
I have to agree ROM Manager is nearly completely useless, I paid for it because if I paid him 1$ for everytime I used his CWM he would be about $50 richer so the latter expense of $2.99 I think is dirt cheap. I did it as a Big thank you!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Johnsondr80:
I have to have rom manager. If I dont have it installed my stock browser refuses to download .zip filez. Says file type not supported by device. Install rom manager, and i'm download happy.

Battery issue

just had a question about the battery life - i see everyone posting awesome battery stats, but for some reason after 7.5 hours im down to 28% battery. 94% is the display, 3% is cell standby, 1% wifi, and 1% phone idle. I did the speedmod tweaks and the battery cycle thing - is there something more im missing?
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
How long since your last flash and what are you doing on your phone?
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
U got to be more specific, like when u say display is 94%, what is the actual hours u had it on.

Display on with video streaming takings more battery

than

display on with data for mails

than

display on for some random video stored on ur phone.

Also, if u r on 3G/H, do u see ur signal flickering between E and 3G/H. This might be an indicator of bad coverage, and u might want to switch to EDGE (and switch to 3G/H when needed).

What about the display brightness?

Most important of all, pls let atleast 5-6 charge-discharge cycles after a battery calibration. Ur ROM needs to gets itself tuned to the charge circuit in ur battery. These two need some time to get into sync.
[Captivate Android Development] droncadin:
it's been on for 7.5 hours, my brightness is set to auto-adjust, the phone mainly sits dormant - just read the odd email / text message. I last updated to 2.9 when it was released last thursday.

The secret to long battery life. Use 2G. I stopped caring about people posting and bragging about their battery life lol. Just switch it to 2G if you're at home and the phone is gonna be sitting there for a long time.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
+1,000,000,000,000

Stay on 2g all time. This reduces phone heat up too on long calls plus increases battery mileage. Switch to 3g/h only when u need high data speed.

Thanks! I contemplated doing that but wanted to see what others advised.

I use juice defender so that turns my data off most of the time. Now I'm trying to drain this battery so I can't get some new battery stats.
[Captivate Android Development] eureb:
I was using Juice Defender, but then it stopped turning my data back on when I unlocked the screen (that's how I had it set up), and then degraded into not letting me turn data on at all (I would manually turn on data, and It would come on for a second, then switch off)

I may add it back later, but most times, I have my phone plugged in at home(almost always on wifi at home also)/car, and while I'm at work & don't need more than texting, I have a toggle on my home screen to turn off data...

I may flash back to stock and reflash FF2.9(or I guess whatever comes out this week) & speedmod at some point, because my battery life has dropped by at least a third somewhere in the multiple flashes over the past few weeks of FF2.7-2.9 and Onix 2.0.1, 2.0.5 and Speedmod, but that'd have to be when I'm not feeling lazy.... lol

Quick heads up,

There will be an update this Thursday and it will still be android 2.2.

This could quite possibly be the last update for FireFly on android 2.2 and if that is the case I want the final build to be FF 3.0.

Android 2.2 based FireFly is very stable right now and I think FF 3.0 is as far as I can stretch it.

Gingerbread is in the works and was in the works before the source was dropped (guys in IRC knew about it).

I had played with the leaked JVK, but due to no kernel for captivate, things were still off.

I am not feeling well, so if I don't respond with my usual frequency please be patient, I will try to get to all your questions and concerns.

Contrary to what YOU and any others believe, I actually do my share of reading.

He said it himself: "its easier than ever for newbs to flash..."

As I have stated before, Since i started FF...i have NEVER rooted my phone and i STILL have superuser permission available (aka I can use Titbu). In this case, I am CORRECT. But i will leave it at that too. :)

Hey guys, I recently lost my phone and will receive my replacement tomorrow (the waiting has been killing me!). Since I am constantly in the FF forum and have used it every day for the past two months, I have a couple of questions that I could ask in the Q&A threads, but I know that you are bored and waiting for thursday, so I will just ask in here (and I think that the search function here on xda is very difficult to find what you want).

1) How do I find out if my phone is a refurb?

2) What information do I need to back up before i start flashing? last time i had a friend do my initial flashes and he didn't save anything.

More questions to come, and I am super excited about x's future work on gingerbread!
