Geolocation?

if you read my post i said for me it isn't that big a deal because i primarily use it for navigation but yes it would be nice to be able to use for geolocation and apps when inside a building (or to at least not see a noticeable step in the wrong direction with a particular function when flashing to newer versions).

It's not a flame or a complaint.....I simply brought it up because i have never seen this issue (even when inside i have never had issues getting an almost instant lock 7-25 seconds or losing 4 or 5 sat locks at a time) with my 1007 build (including every release of ff and phoenix) and was looking for feedback (rather than people just repeating something from my post in the form of a question or providing sidebar that really adds nothing of value).
[Captivate Android Development] Duyo:
1.5 is working very well for me. Thanks for putting in root explorer. Is it included in the new rom? I see people writing about the mms.apk, Is it different than in 1.5?

Thanks Adam, this is good stuff you are doing here.
[Captivate Android Development] singlebeam:
Mine is batch 1007. My phone has NEVER had functional GPS - I started flashing when DG was putting out betas for Cog 2.2.

My phone doesn't seem to mesh well with Phoenix, as far as GPS goes. Phoenix with a JL3 modem would show some satellites occasionally but never a lock.

It has always done "well" with Firefly, since it's birth. JL3 modem is fair to good and JK4 + adam's tweaks seems to do the trick.

EDIT: + changing the GPS settings back and forth like we mentioned earlier, though, I didn't need to do that with 1.0 and 1.5
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
root explorer=NO(that was a mistake)

MMS=mikeymike themed=awesome!
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
Ive been having really bad battery life on Cog and Paragon but I flashed Firefly this morning and it fixed my issues. Same modem and kernel but this rom made a big difference. 5 Hrs and still at 83%. the past few days after 5 hours I'm at 50%. Love this rom

Launcher Pro Icons

I use custom icons and notice its a lot smaller than the ones pre-assigned.... Does anyone know how to make them bigger to match the ones defaulted by Adam? Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
1007 batch here. My best tracking experiences have been with Phoenix & Firefly paied with jk4.

Spirent server

supl sec off

and control plane

has always yielded my best results for tracking with this combo.

I may do a full master clear and reflash later tonight to see if i get different indoor gps results than with latest flash.

Two other strange occurrences i have had since this new flash are and reason i think i will do the full reflash process:

1. Flashed yesterday afternoon and had no issues with voice or data up until going to bed around 1am last night. When i woke up this morning i had no data connection...went to settings and somehow the USE PACKET data had been checked off under mobile networks...data came back after clicking the checkbox back on?

2. For the past 2 hours i have been showing that i am on EDGE data.....this is occurring in a location where i regularly use the device on a daily basis and have never seen my connection on EDGE here before?

This coupled with the indoor gps locks is starting to make me think i had a bad flash.
[Captivate Android Development] dingokevin:
Adam and the team you all have out done yourselves. The gps, battery, and over all look is off the hook. Strong work all.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
for me after 2 or 3 days use of fresh FF flash i saw even better gains in my battery life. After the initial flash i was glad to see improvement but after things settled in with a few days of use and charging/discharging it got even better
[Captivate Android Development] Duyo:
I understand. Thanks for the quick response. One more question. Did you enable debugging on by default in 2.0.4?
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
if you have the paid launcher pro you should be able to resize them
[Captivate Android Development] singlebeam:
whats the spirent server?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Yes I did. there was a large enough request for me to add those 3 little lines to the build.prop;)
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
The spirent-ics.com server is the default AT&T server. It is pretty strong for some and sucks for others
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
www.spirent-lcs.com (original stock 2.1 settings)

but set

SUPL SECURE to OFF

and

AGPS MODE to CONTROL PLANE

those settings with Jk4/ff/speedmod combo are my best Tracking with turn by turn nav.

build 1007
[Captivate Android Development] Teknovik:
I love the 2.04 ROM look and feel, however still no phone.

Also in 2.04 GPS, I get 5-6 sats going in and out with accuracy of 25m and it takes about 30sec to lock.

Re-falshed 1.5. The phone is working again and GPS is fine, 9-10 sats in less than 10sec with 5m accuracy.

Is there a fix? Am I doing something wrong?
[Captivate Android Development] upNsmokeAllDay:
Root Explorer was in 1.5? :eek: wonder how much that took out of the devs pocket.
[Captivate Android Development] singlebeam:
Thank you gentlemen.

EDIT: What about port number for spirent server?

Do you think these settings are moreso device specific or based on location?

The reason I ask is because I will be moving back home 2000 miles from here and I'm hoping I won't need to re-establish optimal settings again :)
[Captivate Android Development] skorchir:
Excellent Job on the Rom :) Thank you

Not sure what changed in this rom but now all my Text Messages are 5hours behind.. Need to use smstimefix now.. Havent tested bluetooth yet to see if its still dropping connections with my car
[Captivate Android Development] photojunky:
Just to throw in my 2 cents worth, I have a build 1009 and have had zero problems with Adam's Roms, flashing them, loading them and running them is dead on. Again to Adam, thank you for all your hard work.
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
Or you could use ADW Launcher (free), which allows you to use your own custom icons and also allows you to resize the dock icons so they match those on the home screens.

And no, I am not in any way affiliated with the dev... I just think ADW kicks Launcher Pro's ass.
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
I thought i would try Firefly today after a couple weeks with Phoenix.

I like the theme better with Firefly vs. current Phoenix theme

GPS never got ONE SINGLE satellite after 5 mins. :(

No Haptic feedback with Gingerbread Keyboard (same in Phoenix)

The rest feels the same.
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
Strange... I have haptic with the GB keyboard. I don't want to make assumptions, but have you gone into the keyboard settings and selected "Vibrate on keypress"? I don't believe it is enabled by default.
[Captivate Android Development] singlebeam:
I thought this of the haptic feedback also. You need to enable it through the Gingerbread Keyboard settings.

EDIT: Post above mine already covered that

Also, for your GPS, try this:

LBSTestMode > SUPL/CP Settings > Server FQDN Type [change to AUTO]

A few people have changed to auto, got GPS lock, then changed back to custom for it to work. You may also try turning on secure socket or changing to control plane. Try messing with these settings until you find something that hopefully works. Remember to 'delete GPS' data each time you change settings. Hope this helps.
[Captivate Android Development] PersonOfKnownOrigin:
If you need something new tell me you're getting the Atrix. Probably where I'm going next.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
ya i couldnt get a lock at all until i did this...still having the poor indoor lock issue

planning a reflash cause also still having the EDGE issue...on edge @ 2nd location (home) where i have never been on E
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
Yeah it wasn't supposed to be there by Adam's own admission. I backed it up via TiBu and was not able to restore it when I refalshed my phone, so there must be some safeguards.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
sorry

7275 for spirent port #
[Captivate Android Development] singlebeam:
It seems like my GPS works no matter what I do to these settings :D

I just left the port # on 7276, which is the default set to supl.google.com and it still works. I haven't noticed any increase in speed or accuracy unique to the different settings we have discussed. They all seem to work amazingly.

I'm getting locks anywhere from 4-6 seconds at 5-15m with every combination.
[Captivate Android Development] Stephenxda:
You tried to keep it:eek: Tisk tisk tisk
[Captivate Android Development] kezell:
It may be a bad flash but my voicemail notifications are not working. Is there a file I can add?

Other than that, GPS, BT, Headset etc...all great!
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
It was an accident. I use Root explorer in all of my testing and forgot to remove it.
[Captivate Android Development] skorchir:
Adam any idea about the sms times being 5 hours behind?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
No, but I can look into it.
[Captivate Android Development] singlebeam:
I'm not having any issues with sms times. Perhaps it has something to do with your date and time settings?:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] gallinas2:
No problem here either.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
That was my first thought as well as mine works great!
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
ok after reflash my indoor gps seems to be back to normal

i did have to switch to auto config and get a lock though before i could see more satellites and get it to lock on....after the first lock with auto config i could switch to google or supl and get locks.
[Captivate Android Development] tedo911:
On the Rogers network I'm always 5 hours off. I use SmsFixTimes to correct it. Had the same problem with my old HTC Magic.
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
Omg, I feel like king of the noobs. I never realized the settings menu in the gingerbread keyboard. Sorry for whining, adam.

Trying gps, and the trick appears to have worked

[Captivate Android Development] kezell:
Does any of you have working voicemail notifications?
[Captivate Android Development] Stephenxda:
I am using Google Voice. I get the notifications from that. I assume your talking about AT&T voicemail.
[Captivate Android Development] kezell:
Yes I am refering to AT&T notifications. Is this a simple fix or would I need to use google voice?
[Captivate Android Development] Stephenxda:
I would use google voice personally
[Captivate Android Development] tedo911:
That's funny. I've had that issue with every ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] disellusional:
had the sms issue with 1.0 beta but switched to phoenix 3.5 and no issues.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
can someone please tell me if this has a working bluetooth on headset and aux call out been trying to see any post no body answer it, i need to know it first cause i dont want to change rom then change back again if those two dont work :( hopefully someone out there
[Captivate Android Development] Nuskul:
Greetings All! Just flashed Firefly! Great Rom so far, smooth and quick, I have a few questions tho.

1. I CWM flashed over phoenix 3.5, when I shut down I get the phoenix TV? shutdown is that supposed to happen?

2. When the phone restarted my phoenix wallpaper loaded up, Is there a site to download all the Firefly wallpapers?

GPS locks fast, 8 sats in 12 secs. Although I had the same results with phoenix.

Adam you've do a great job with both platforms, looking forward to whatever tweak you figure out next. Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] gallinas2:
My AT&T voice mail notification does not work either, would like it fixed but, it ain't a big deal. I just check my voice mail if I ignore or miss a call.
[Captivate Android Development] varunkumars:
Adam. I like the new theme. But i like the old theme(on 1.5 with silver Menu rather than the black as it is now) even better and also the stock music player. Is there a way to get those back. Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] ctfeet:
I can tell you that Bluetooth works fine in my car. Don't know what aux call out is so I can't comment on that.
[Captivate Android Development] NunHugger:
I am pretty sure that the phoenixtv shutdown is the default. I am going to work on a ff specific shutdown animation tonight.

...and you can get the wallpapers on the website...the address is in the op.

Problem syncing contacts

I am having trouble getting my contacts to sync from my google account and facebook account. I keep getting the reponse facebook has timed out and to log in again. It is also not showing all my gmail contacts. Do you know how I could fix this?

As for GPS, mine has been working great, getting locked on my location just fine.

One more thing........I loved the firefly battery mod. If you put up themes on your website, could you include that? I really liked it, it was different.

Thanks!!!!!!

Edit: Could I take the contacts apk from 1.5 and swap it into the new version? It was working fine for me on the other version.
[Captivate Android Development] disellusional:
hesistant to try this since phoenix 3.5 is so stable and smooth. and hearing some "bugs" makes me a bit hesitant

curse you adam!
[Captivate Android Development] hybernator:
Was anyone able to dl the icon pack adam posted? I've tried 10 times but it always fails at 6% I looked in the op but didn't see it if anyone was able to dl could they please repost it thanks
[Captivate Android Development] cypho:
No, that is the android icon, I'm looking for the Launcher Pro Icon. It is the icon in the bottom right in this screenshot.

http://www.launcherpro.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/screnshot_recentappspopup.jpg

The version of launcherPro that comes with FireFly2 is modified with the web browser icon replaced with one that says in text "www browser".

I tried restoring a backup of launcher pro from titanium backup. This worked, and I was able to use the default launcher pro icons, but then when I rebooted the phone, the firefly-modified version was back.

So now I want to just use a custom icon (of the original default launcher pro icon) but searching the web I have been unable to find a copy of it.

NEVER MIND!!!!

I solved the probably by completely removing launcher pro and then installing from the marketplace.
[Captivate Android Development] AreikUSA:
Has anyone had the phone format after enabling the lag-fix? Mine just did, had everything setup way i like it, went back installed lag-fix and it took forever to boot. Started getting worried when it finally booted everything was gone and flashed back to fresh flash?
[Captivate Android Development] beerbaronstatic:
I keep seeing people talking about how their voicemail notifications aren't working, I know before it was fixed by using a certain Phone.apk. anyone getting voicemail notifications (carrier, not google voice) want to share the phone.apk theyre using?
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
I had no problem. Try again. The 11th time may be the charm.

Edit: try searching Tallmin

Great work

All features are working great for me

I had to enable secure socket to get the gps to lock in, and the lock seems solid and fast now.

I find it interesting that you included sms popup, I am a previous iphone user, I always heard everyone hated the iPhone's popup notifications, it's funny to me that android has an app to emulate that hated feature.

To each his own :)
[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
FYI I flashed from Firefly 1.5 to 2.04 and

1. did not disable lagfix on two different phones.

2. I did reset to default via clockwork and cleared cache.

3. Installed zip

4. Re-enabled recommended tweaks and set advanced load ext4 to faster.

No problems flashed quick, just did a restore of titanium backup apps and back in business. Excellent Rom. 1.5 was my favorite and now 2.04 is my favorite rom of all on xda. Take a break adam, I don't see how much better it can get. Maybe all you need to work on for this rom is addons and such if people want them. I usually change the default wallpaper on your roms becuase icons are to hard to see, but it looks like this one may stay awhile.
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
Not sure if this helps, but my Motorola S9 headset works fine. Music controls work, and it functions as a headset for calls, too. The phone answer button on my headset is tweaked (too much sweat, I think), so I can't say if that one answers calls.

Everything on my Motorola EQ5 Bluetooth speakers, music controls, call button... all work as advertised.
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
On your gps screenshot, how is it that you get that blue lettered info? I don't see that at all when I test mine...??

Hey Adam, any thoughts on carrier voicemail notifications? or are you just suggesting everyone just use google voice?
[Captivate Android Development] viewsonic11:
After a while I got my contacts to sync. What I did was login to my facebook app and stayed logged in. Then I went to my contacts and added a facebook account and it synced even though it still said it was having syncing problems. But the pictures still don't show up in messaging. :(????

1,400 sqf i think not that big i dont think, least it doesn't feel that way sometimes.
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
It is supposed to restore everything (lagfix is a formatting of the folders). I always do the lagfix before restoring anything to the phone. That's also the quickest since there is less to backup / restore.
[Captivate Android Development] AreikUSA:
thats weird cause its never done it before, ive always seen if i can/like it without lagfix before installing it.

My FF 2.04 Findings

First let me start by thanking Adam and the FF Team for another awesome release. I flashed this morning and so far so good. Below is my bug report not much to report.

*GPS locks fast but when using G-Nav the arrow icon drifts all over the place not FF's fault its the SamSung HW GPS chip imo. I never expect the GPS to be truly functional on the Captivate without a HW rev.

*Voice mail notification not being displayed this one bugs me a bit since I receive work related calls on it.

For the price I paid I can't complain about the ROM thanks again for the awesome ROM Team FF.:cool:

Build 1007
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
I think if you use the phone.apk from the Gingermix theme that should do the trick. Not 100% sure, but worth a shot.

Potential VM fix

For anyone interested I have attached an flashable VM fix and installed it on my phone without any issues. I can't say if it worked or not as no one ever calls me:( Please let me know so I can make the changes for future releases. FYI- It switches the look of the dialer(clean IMO) but if you like yours the way it is back up your dialeractivitytab.apk.

LbsTestMode Settings?

I see several people suggesting to change the settings in in LbsTestMode, my question is are the changes actually written system wide or are they just used by the LbsTestMode App? If the settings are not being used system wide what's probably helping with the GPS locks is deleting the GPS data not the settings change. Does anyone know the answer adamholden85 maybe you can chime in:confused:

Look guys Roms are like shoes, if you like the way it fits then wear it, if not get a different pair, and stop whining about how how the pair you don't like feels!

[Captivate Android Development] ifederov:
Until Adam fixes the lockscreen issue, you could use the WidgetLocker app for different lockscreens. Not the ideal situation (it's a pay app), but a feasible work-around if you HAVE to have a different lockscreen.
