2 problems so far.

The google navigation app doesn't find my location despite the GPS connecting. I have been able to find my location with Runkeeper, so I'm not really sure why this would be the case.

This morning I set my alarm for 5:30. As I always do, I reset the alarm for 5:50 after it successfully woke me up at 5:30. The alarm never activated at 5:50. Luckily, I go in to work early so I ended up getting there right on time today.

As far as I can tell, these two problems began when I upgraded to 3.03 yesterday.

Otherwise, Cognition 3.03 seems to work great. Also, thanks for the wifi fix. Yay wifi!
[Captivate Android Development] Shovelhead84:
Ditto... I think you could add that there is definitely an improvement to functionality. We could argue the difference of the words "functionality" and "performance" but either way the three apps described add a lot to the phone in terms of convenience.

I trust DG's design ideas and tried to use the stock launcher in build 3.1, however I feel restrained. It was smooth but I believe most power users and flashers appreciate the hidden functionality provided by LP. I am not arguing launcherpro as "the best launcher" but acknowledging that a naked LP home screen with no notification bar still has 10 quick shortcut of your choosing. It's fast, simple, customizable and increases functionality.

I find it hard to believe that anyone who really follows DG's ROMs does not use Titanium Backup. I only make this comment from the standpoint of a DG/Cognition fan because updates come almost daily. I do not flash every single ROM version DG releases because he provides detailed change logs and addressed issues don't always apply to me, but I flash enough of them that re-downloading and rebuilding my setup is not reasonable.

I guess the major point is that the added launcher and applications do not have so much to do with the ROM it's self but with Cognition' users. It's built to be used asap and already prepared for the next update.
[Captivate Android Development] Donmotobike:
not upgrading to 3.03 too many problems. 3.02 hits my sweet spot. No problem with 3.02 except gps is off location accuracy but it does lock in quickly...even my yahoo mail works with this version. It didnt with previous version. Thanks DG pizza fund coming soon.
[Captivate Android Development] Klobersaurus:
I find this post hilarious since DG has repeatedly stated he does not care about or trust those scores.

[Captivate Android Development] csdibiase@gmail.com:
Took a little doing, but I've gotten 3.0.3 installed on my week old captivate. It already feels like the experience I should have had out of the box.

Word of warning to others that are flashing for the first time. READ THE WIKI. cognition.theidiotshideout.net/mw/index.php?title=Main_Page#From_2.1_Eclair and definitely disable voodoo lagfix if you have installed that already. Went through several failed attempts that would have been scary soft-brick scenarios if I had not had a backup of the default ROM from Clockwork recovery.

For the benifit of others, here's the path I went down to get the ROM installed.

I just replaced an iPhone 3GS with an AT&T Captivate as I wanted something more flexible than the iPhone. After rooting, installing Voodoo LagFix and enabling unknown sources I figured I was ready to install a ROM.

Reading the Wiki for instructions I downloaded Titanium Backup and ROM Manager from the marketplace. First up was a backup of my applications and data, though for me I don't use my phone as an authoritative store of any information so this step was more about convenience than recovery. Next up was installing ClockworkMod Recovery, which was as easy as tapping that option in the ROM Manager tool.

What wasn't intuitive but extremely important was the ROM backup.

ClockworkMod Recovery installs a special update.zip which can be executed from the phones built in recovery screen, by selecting reinstall packages. (see the clockworkmod recovery thread on the forum). From the clockworkmod recovery screen backing up the existing stock firmware is critical.

When I attempted my install of Cognition 3.03, the install failed in such a way that the phone failed to boot into anything but the stock recovery mode. Since ClockworkMod Recovery's update.zip and backups were still on the SD card I was able to restore from backup and get the phone booted enough to reinstall Titanium Backup and ROMManager.

Three tries and three soft bricks before I noticed the note about uninstalling voodoo lagfix first.

Had I not had the ClockworkMod Recovery it would have been a very long night attempting to unbrick my phone from the computer

Hope my experience helps the next rookie through their ROM update.

Once I had lagfix disabled, the ROM upgrade worked flawlessly and I was able to save a bunch of time restoring applications and settings with Titanium Backup.
[Captivate Android Development] Klobersaurus:
I have not been able to recreate this bug yet. I'm not really sure what happened anymore. lol.
[Captivate Android Development] chocodough:
Well unless there is some earth shattering reason to upgrade, I'm sticking with 3.02.

Although I like LauncherPro, it should be a secondary option being as it is easily downloaded from the market. I prefer the stock launcher way over the others.

So I'll be sticking to 3.02 or switching to another another ROM which stays closer to stock. I would bet that the majority of people would prefer the stock launcher.

Just my 2 cents.
[Captivate Android Development] Klobersaurus:
Most people I know that have android use launcher pro. It seems to work best, IMO.

On another note, if DG's intent is to keep the stock feel, just raise performance. He should probably just use the stock.

Yet, and I wholeheartedly agree that this is what he should be doing, if he wants to add a little personal preference to the ROM, he has the right to do so. Especially if the people that don't like it can, as so many people have said, easily download another from the market.
[Captivate Android Development] gordec:
Anyone knows any fix for the static during BT calling with Cog3.0, speedmod, and jl2?

At this point I like 3.02 better is there any way to download the older version?
[Captivate Android Development] AtariBorn:
Cognition 3.02

Fix for dialer sounds...(push to /system/apps/)
[Captivate Android Development] SlickyFats:
I flashed a new ROM to get Froyo. I like the Touchwiz interface. It is mush easier to uninstall apps. Also being able to move apps from one home screen to another by pressing and holding then dragging left or right is something I miss. Speed to me isn't everything when you begin to lose functionality.

Also if you don't like what DG does.....go elsewhere and find a different ROM that works for you.
[Captivate Android Development] dirtyballoonot:
Disagree about RM and TiBU. I'm fairly certain that ALMOST everyone uses these apps, and it saves a little hassel

Launcher Pro I can see your point.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
I'm wondering if I upgrade from 3.02 to 3.03 will the LP in the update mess up the LP I already have installed?
[Captivate Android Development] mikegehl:
Didn't change my LP setup / config. in any way.
[Captivate Android Development] VirtualNobody:
OK, call me stupid, but I've been through the last several days of posts.....

Just where do you find the documentation on how to update from

3.02 to 3.03-u2?
[Captivate Android Development] m37h:
Just download the zip file and apply it through recovery mode (you should have the red recovery mode if you have 3.02 already).
[Captivate Android Development] whiteguypl:
Bug? Anyone else?

While in call

- Plug in wired headset

- Unplug wired headset

- Plug it back in relatively quickly

Voice starts to echo very badly, both parties hear it. Have to hang up and call back, without the headset plugged in. If you open a task manager while this is happening music player and video player have secretly opened in the background, as in you cant see them without a task manager. If you attempt to end there processes they just start right back up again. Battery begins to drain at an excessive rate, multiple %'s withing just a few minutes. Phone also starts to heat up a bit. Only solution is to reboot the phone, and even then it seems to act a bit off unless you reflash cog.
[Captivate Android Development] Klobersaurus:
lol, were you TRYING to find a bug?
[Captivate Android Development] whiteguypl:
Haha no, was changing the ear bud tips from small to medium while on the phone with a relative that has the same phone/rom. We had a wtf moment.

[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Yes flash back the original kernel and modem and you will be good.
[Captivate Android Development] Xaltotun:
Possible bug?

Since I have flashed the awesome COGNITION ROM, my search functionality has been acting crazy. Mostly in the browser and the Yahoo Mail app.

When I read a page, the search function will enable itself multiple times, as if I have pressed the search button - but I am sure I did not, I have verified this by using the phone lying still on a table.

Is this a SW bug, a HW failure, or something else? Anyone else has this problem? I did not have it with the DARKY ROM, for example...
[Captivate Android Development] Klobersaurus:
navigation

So is anybody else having a problem with navigation with this ROM? It just keeps saying, "checking navigation availability" despite having a solid GPS connection.
[Captivate Android Development] the_boris:
This issue was already discussed in this thread. Basically, try to start the Maps first, then try Navigation. It worked for me. If it does not help try to delete Maps cache, restart Maps and then try Navigation
[Captivate Android Development] MonsterBandit:
this works.
[Captivate Android Development] samoth26:
I'm on 3.02 right now, trying to load 3.03 update-2. I am unable to go into recovery mode through rom manager. I did the download for flash clockworkmod recovery then hit reboot into recovery. It does not give me the menu in recovery to select the zip file, just reinstall packages over and over..

After loading 3.02, I installed the speedmod kernel. Could this be the reason I can't get into the recovery menu?

Is it better to just reload the full 3.03?
[Captivate Android Development] hd779:
Try tapping on flash clockworkmod recovery in rom manager and redownload clockworkmod, I had the same thing happen and it fixed it for me.
[Captivate Android Development] delugeofspam:
Do NOT take the above poster's advice! You do NOT want to be in stock clockworkmod recovery!

Press and hold the power button and choose 'Recovery' from the power menu OR use terminal emulator to 'su' and 'reboot recovery' OR use adb to reboot into recovery.

You won't get into the RED Voodoo Clockworkmod Recovery because you installed speedmod kernel. Instead, it will be a GREEN recovery (very much LIKE the stock CWM recovery) but at the top it will read "Clockworkmod Recovery v2.5.1.0 SpeedMod ULFK". If you DO NOT SEE the RED RECOVERY or "SPEEDMOD ULFK" then DO NOT FLASH, as you likely don't have EXT4 filesystem support (lagfix).

@designgears: There seem to be a lot of users trying to use ROM Manager to reboot into recovery. I think it might be prudent of you to warn against this in the OP, as your kernel includes a custom recovery that is more or less REQUIRED to flash anything onto your ROM. Who knows why people seem so attached to this method.
[Captivate Android Development] _Infamous_:
Will speedmod kernel work on this rom
[Captivate Android Development] shawn122:
forgive me for being a noob..but what is the difference?:o
[Captivate Android Development] s44:
Stock Clockwork was done by Koush before Voodoo and other ext4 filesystem conversions were on the table, and only understands rfs.

Red Clockwork is part of supercurio's Voodoo5 package, and was created by him (and others) to function in an ext4 environment.

Others like sztupy have also done ext4-sensitive custom recoveries. Not sure which one hardcore's speedmod uses.

The key is never to use stock Clockwork with an active lagfix. Reboot to recovery from the power button menu or the Reboot Button app (these take you to the improved recovery) never from ROM Manager (this takes you to old Clockwork).
[Captivate Android Development] delugeofspam:
Edited my post to include explanation:

You can brick your phone by flashing without EXT4 support. That's why if you look at the older ROMs they'll always tell you to disable lagfix before flashing anything. The problem is largely solved by smart devs these days by including a modified recovery that supports the faster filesystem, but it's not fool-proof. You still have to be in the proper recovery mode ;)
[Captivate Android Development] samoth26:
holy cow, recovery is now in the power settings, great.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
PS - you can repair the cwm recovery to work properly will have to find the thread. But i agree...its not necessary when you can just boot recovery from TE or Power Menu.

This does work...you need the zip from the first post

This is my first smart phone, my first attempt to flash a rom. Learning alot on this site.

Thanks all of you.

My question is, Using this ROM will be able to use the full Kies program? Here in America we're stuck with mini Kies. I downloaded the full Kies program but it will not reconize my phone.

Question 2

. On these forum pages people talk about choosing launchers and modem software. Where are the instruction for how to do this? and Is this done before you flash the Rom or after?
[Captivate Android Development] BigEHokie:
Another update on the silliness that is restoring user apps+data to Cog3 that I've been having (from a TiBu backup made on Perception 10.2). Those backups restore fine to other ROMs, just not to Cog 3. I have tried to do this restore probably 10 times and none of them worked. All the apps were restored, however none of the apps' data was.

So I remained on Cog 3 anyways and made a few TiBu backups of my apps+data while on it. Today I decided to try out another ROM (espyrl?) and was able to restore all my apps and their data made from Cog 3 backups. I didn't care for that ROM so reflashed back to Cog 3 and did a restore. This time it seems as though the TiBu apps+data restore worked fine for all my apps but LauncherPro.

So, in my specific use case (and a few others' it seems as well), the TiBu backup made on Perception 10.2 doesn't want to restore on Cog3.

Any thoughts on this? DG, I've posted this a few times but haven't seen a response. Anyone else?

Edit: Seems like LauncherPro did restore, I just had to restart LP.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
There is a thing called Search and read the sticky. Do it.

Having said that, Kies will not work with custom ROMs. Only with stock ROMs. Modems can be found in the other threads such as the modem thread that's stickied in the Captivate Android Development.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Probably just something with Tibu... send me a logcat next time it happens.
[Captivate Android Development] AsSiMiLaTeD_77:
OK, I could use a bit of help here, trying to flash to 3.03 and am stuck. I was running an old version of Cognition 2.3b6. I decided to just do a master clear and a stock refresh using the ODIN 1 clink installer thing.

So right now I have a stock JF6 firmware.

I unrooted successfully and installed Rom Manager. Then down lownloaded the Cognition3.03.zip file to the internal SD card. I updated ROM Manager with clockworkrecovery. I then chose to Install ROM, and picked the Cog zip file, the phone reboots. I then select reinstall packages and get an error that says can't find /dscard/update.zip package and it won't proceed from there.

Obviously I'm missing a step, can someone help me out.
[Captivate Android Development] BigEHokie:
I'll tell you, I looked through logcat and so no errors with TiBu or the restore. Matter of fact, it was providing a "restore success" message :-D
[Captivate Android Development] focalguy:
I'm still on 2.3b8 but I have noticed the same thing when I am definitely not touching the search button. I couldn't tell if it was hardware or ROM or what but I suspected it was just hardware. Doesn't happen "too" often but enough to be annoying.
[Captivate Android Development] jamgam:
I've had that happen with 3.02 a couple times also. Not very often (I don't use a browser much) but have noticed it
[Captivate Android Development] AsSiMiLaTeD_77:
Maybe if someone just has a link to the post with instructions I can work my way through and figure out what I'm missing. I though this was the procedure I'd used in previous version of Cog, but apparently I'm missing something.
[Captivate Android Development] AsSiMiLaTeD_77:
It looks like the update.zip file that the recovery tool is looking for isn't on the phone. Is the creation of the file something that should be happening when I click the 'Install ROM from SD Card' option, or is there another file that I need to be copying over to the SD card, I don't recall having to do that when I flashed to earlier versions of Cognition.
[Captivate Android Development] hayden1987:
for some reason I'm getting static during normal calls when using Cog 3.02 along with SpeedMod K12P HZ=500, do I need to use a different modem if I'm using SpeedMod kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] s44:
You should never do that from ROM Manager. Again, later on this is likely to kick up the wrong version of Clockwork.

If the update.zip is missing, choose the reflash Clockwork option from ROM Manager. Then use the power button menu to reboot to recovery. Then use Clockwork itself to pick the Cognition zip.
[Captivate Android Development] AsSiMiLaTeD_77:
I don't have a reflash clockwork option, but I have tried flashing it again. Using the power button to boot into recovery isn't an option on the stock JF6 ROM that's I'm running.

I guess I'm not really following what you're saying.
[Captivate Android Development] whiteguypl:
Anyone? #1224 Or even if you havent had the problem know why it might be happening?
[Captivate Android Development] Phateless:
Searched but couldn't find anything conclusive. Currently running Cog 2.3b8. Safe to to do a no-wipe upgrade if I wipe cache and dalvik first and do a fix permissions after?

[Captivate Android Development] chvybeatsford:
Sorry if this is posted.all ready but i just installed this Rom. Installed many and like this one as my battery does good.

One issue. If i open contacts the back button won't send me back to home. It vibrates but wontt go back.

Again ssorry if posted already.
[Captivate Android Development] AsSiMiLaTeD_77:
I got it working. On the off-chance that someone else may benefit from my procedure, here's what I did that worked.

1 - Master Clear

2 - Flash to stock JF6

3 - Unroot

4 - Install ROM manager and ClockworkRecovery

5 - From ROM Manager, I select Reboot Into Recovery instead of Install ROM from SD Card

6 - Phone Rebooted into Clockwork Recovery

7 - I selected install another zip file from sd card

8 - Selected the Cog3.03 zip file

9 - Phone installed a bunch of stuff then returned to CWM screen, I selected Reboot Device

10 - Phone finished installing and all seems to be well.

From what I understand, what I did in step 5, so using the CWM Recovery instead of the stock recovery (which would not work for me) is NOT the correct thing to do, but it is what worked for me so thought I'd pass it along.
[Captivate Android Development] integrasaurus:
I just realized my contacts won't close (pressing back does not close contacts). Not really an issue, thought I'd put that out there.

Good job DG!
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
You are mixing up two different problems.

Problem 1 is mixing Captivate ROMs and i9000 kernel produces static in BT.

Problem 2 is that Captivate ROMs do not support BT voice dialing. The question was about BT voice dialing. At this time, there is no fix for it, but I am not sure it is correct to say that "it can't be fixed." Some dev may figure it out, especially if the official AT&T Captivate 2.2 ROM is missing BT voice dialing.
[Captivate Android Development] MechaGen:
That's what TitaniumBackup is for. Run batch >Backup all user apps.
[Captivate Android Development] Xaltotun:
Anyone? This is driving me nuts!
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
Your modem and kernel should always match. Captivate modem with Captivate kernel and i9000 modem with i9000 kernel. With that being said, there are varying results with different i9000 modems and some i9000 modems seem to cause static or background noise for some people in some situations.

IMO, modems are going to give different people the most varying results, especially modems not designed for the Captivate or AT&T's network. Some may work very well for some people in some geographic areas and not work at all for others in other areas. If you travel a lot, your safest bet is an AT&T (or perhaps a Rogers) modem and not an i9000 modem. If you spend all your time in one area, use whatever you like best for your area.

Hey guys, so I just flashed this rom on my phone yesterday, but I just discovered that the phone app force closes every time someone tries to call me, whether the phone is asleep or not. Anyone have any idea why this might be? I'd really appreciate some help, this is a pretty big problem.

Edit: I just noticed that when i receive a call, the signal bars in the notification bar disappear and it gives me a little circle with a line in it like i have no signal. Still can't figure this out :(
[Captivate Android Development] SlickyFats:
You can save yourself some time next time you flash back to stock and want to install a different ROM.

Take the file that Clockwork made on you SD card titled update.zip and save it to your computer. It should be 17-18kb.

After you flash back to stock (and then root, I do it but don't know for sure if needed). Drag the update.zip file you saved to your SD card along with the Rom zip file.

Hold volume buttons and power on phone. Hit reinstall packages and then do it again and you should be able to install ROM straight away without having to have downloaded ROM manager from the market. Works for me but might not for everyone. Hope that makes sense though.
[Captivate Android Development] Phateless:
If you have the update.zip on your sdcard rooting the stock rom is not necessary because you're not even booting into it. On my gf's Captivate I never rooted her stock rom, I just dropped the update.zip on the sdcard, chose reinstall packages a couple times to boot into clockwork recovery, then wiped data and flashed Cog 2.3b8 and went on with my life. She's been running this for a couple of weeks now and it's fast and smooth.
