[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Here's the way I see it. If you don't OC/UV then go with speedmod as it is more stable and better on battery life (I've been running K13E since last night and havent noticed any problem yet)
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
X, I'm INSANELY disapointed :eek: ... no, I'm kidding :rolleyes:

So now that I have your attention :cool:

I just noticed one problem, nothing major but made me have to reboot my phone. I was listening to music and got a phone call, which I missed cause I hit the power button at the same time to go change song. That's where the problem started. I could see my notification bar but the rest of the screen was black. I tried hitting the power button to make it go black and hit it again but just to end up with the same result. So I tried letting it fade to black, then again same result. I tried "blind" unlocking but there was no response to that either.

Good thing tho I was able to use my power button menu, so I ended up rebooting the phone. Duno if you can reproduce that error - I just hope it doesn't happen again as I was trying to do a full battery circle (now kinda screwed up lol), phone has been on since sunday night w/o charging and was at 29% this morning with moderate/heavy use. (Was just calibrating cause the battery drops really fast from 100 to 75% but then stays on forever as you can see lol)
[Captivate Android Development] tkjeeper:
Well, bored last night so I weakened and flashed a new rom. Doesn't matter which. Lasted approximately 10 mins! Thank god I did a back up through cwm! Right back as if I never left! No comparison for me yet. Although I may weaken in the future for cm7, FF is my home. Thanks X.

"You can check out any time you'd like, but you can never leave."
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
That is very strange behavior. I am going to try and reproduce it. Which music player were you using?
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
xtreme, I just came across another time-related issue while trying to check transit times on my city's transit website. The site was giving me times 4 hours ahead of what time it actually was, which messes with the schedule depending on the time of day. It looks like the time issue is deeper than just the sms/mms timestamp. Any idea how to fix this?
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
MIUI I think, The one that came with FF 2.8 (I love its "clean'est" lol)

Also a page back, I got another post about some problem I got last night :rolleyes: Not especially FF related but maybe you'll know what happened :)
[Captivate Android Development] 305Freak:
Every single time I've seen something weird of this kind it is related to UV. Your sig says you are on Speedmod but that doesn't mean you still are :) Anyway, I'm using Onix 2.0.5 and simply do not use any OC/UV. All is well and the car dock works well too.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I just tried recreating that same situation and it works for me.

Like 305Freak said, UV can cause issues, what kernel are you on and are you UV'ing?
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
No UV (I like my phone to be stable) and I'm on speedmod K13E since last night. Could that be it?

As for my other problem I got yesterday, I was about to install K13E (from K13D) but was too tired and went through ROM Manager.. lol - I still don't understand how It loaded FF 2.8 completly stock and had lost all my apps and stuff (good thing I did a TiBu backup couple days ago but still lost FF mods and Fixes app as it can't be restored). Also lost all my msg, settings (Wifi and such) - I don't see why it would've flashed FF 2.8 over but not a complete flash as it missed all the apps that come with the ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] aymank1985:
I just installed firefly , but i dont know how to change the theme after downloading it from ff mods and fixes icon . Can someone help please

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Flash it in cwm exactly like you did the rom.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
You can get FF app from the OP.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
DUH.. not like it's big and obvious or something :rolleyes: lol

Man it's really not my day. I get confused between thread/post trying to help ppl, I got a black screen problem (apparently UV problem) and my phone decided to re-flash FF 2.8 when I told it to install speedmod K13E.. :mad:

Can't wait for tomorrow! lol
[Captivate Android Development] bigsmitty64:
UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!! I'm Going back to stock! :D

Not a problem, just thought I'd ask. More so to see if it was just me or a known issue.

[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Well I'm not a MIUI "specialist" but it's the same app I've been using (it's on my dock) since I have FF 2.8 - There's a screenie of my dock a couple pages back if you wanna verify for me :o As my phone is dead (after 33hrs :D) and I'm at work.. lol
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Haha..**** happens in the world of modding. It was probably a one off occurrence.

Me TOO!, I am going to stock as well, been a while...lol

That lag is mostly because it is reading off an xml. In later versions, wilsongis and I will try to get that fixed.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
I hope it was a one off occurrence lol it's such a pain!

And you're not actually going back to stock now are you? :eek: haha not sure I read so much sarcasm in your sentence :P
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Never!! I was only kidding. I haven't back to stock in months. :D:D
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
hahaha ok, was just making sure. Would be sad to see our fav dev go to stock :eek:

I flashed the SecularNun-Absolution; however, the setting menu icon didn't change. Please advise.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Nun took out the settings.apk in his themes because they were out dated and removing newer options in roms, such as clock toggles and so forth...
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Was typing a text message just now then I got a phone call. After I hanged up, I had to unlock the phone to finish typing my text. However I wasn't able to finish my text and was forced to exit the messaging app, then re-open the text I was typing earlier and finish it off. It's not a huge bug or anything, but thought you'd wanna know and try to fix it.
[Captivate Android Development] d3v14n7:
Great rom, just flashed it a couple days ago (to replace CM7, which is pretty buggy currently) and I couldn't be happier... I ran into 2 small issues, the call recording fix freezes my phone after I end a call, forcing it to reboot itself, I just flashed the revert .zip and all is well again. And the other problem is that, even after resetting battery stats and re-calibrating the battery, as soon as my phone is unplugged from the charger (after about 8 hours of being plugged in, so its fully charged) it drops down to 98% instantly... Anyone else have this issue?
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
I got tired of flashing stuff and losing the FF boot animation so I made a CWM flashable zip file of the stock boot animation. (This is not the new one that X has been working on)

Get the link HERE if anyone's interested.

Hopefully X will post this on the second page so it doesn't get lost in the abyss of thread pages we have going on here.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Looks like there are some errors w the calls while u're doing something else :/
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
This is just how the battery is charged normally. When on a charger, once it hits 100% it will cycle by discharging and then recharge back to 100%. Depending on when you unplug it, you could be anywhere in the cycle range. You'll see this on every ROM and most smartphones, just a "feature" of how the battery management works.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
As for the Battery it is normal, the ROM is made to save your battery's life so it charges to 100% and then discharges up to 97% and then charges up again. You will therefore unplug your charger and get anywhere between 97-100% depending on when you unplug in the cycle. This is normal and won't cause any issues. It was a workaround to prevent the battery's life from being reduced due to excessive plug in. The newer gen batteries are not made to be discharged and recharged from zero all that often...It also prevents charge death, something that was occurring with kernels last year. Read up more on batteries HERE and HERE

As for the call recording:

you have to be on stock FF theme for it to work, FF with call recording is a mix between 2.2 and 2.2.1, the themes that will work with FF will break call recording due to this. I have a theme in with X that should fix that (if he ever posts it :P ) and I believe that the latest versions of darkfire will work.

Flash yourself the "stock FF" theme in the second post of the thread and then toss in call recording and you should be fine. If you want to flash any theme on top of that you will have to make sure the phone apk (if it is themed) in the theme you are using is a call recording one and have the associated phoneutils.apk and the three .lib files that come with call recording (just open up the call recording zip to see what they are) if they are not the same ones, delete the phone.apk files from the app as well as the framework-res.apk files from the theme in question and flash... it should give you the major points in the theme but your dropdown menu and extended power menu will be stock FF as those mods are contained in the Framework-res.apk

Look at themes that are compatible with Phoenix and other roms with call recording in them and they should work fine... then again I make my own custom themes for my phone nowadays and havn't flashed one in a while... good luck.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancered:
For those who helped me out yesterday, thanks! I went to ATT and got my replacement.

The funny part is that one of the guys is like "Someone who hacked their phone came in last week with a similar issue" and the other guy says "girls in dresses don't hack phones" Haha! May God let the misconceptions continue :)
[Captivate Android Development] d3v14n7:
Hmm that's odd, I've never had the problem before when I was on Cognition and Phoenix, its not a huge deal... But thanks for clearing that up.

Great, thanks for the info... I'm not running any themes currently (using customized Launcher Pro Plus as my launcher/homescreens, everything else is stock), not a big deal, call recording isn't something I'd be using much, if at all, so I just wanted to give the dev a heads up in case no one else faced this issue.

Many thanks, to both of you!
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
I am not sure what kernel Adam is using on Phoenix at the moment, but the Cog kernel is a voodoo injected stock kernel. Won't happen on that one...the kernel that comes with FF (speedmod k13D - soon to be k13E come tomorrow's update). It is a reoriented I9000 Kernel, meaning that it was taken from the I9000 and modified/recompiled to work on a I896/I897 (captivates). All reoriented I9000 kernels I have flashed do this. Perhaps that is why Cog never did it to you... Never did it to me while I was on Cog either.

Anyways, make sure you have I9000 modems, which may cause all sorts of issues if not paired with an I9000 kernel. I am 95% sure that it was a theme of some sort that was messing with your phone to FC after ending a call.
[Captivate Android Development] Keland44:
i'm not trippin X you earned what I gave you just keep the roms coming

actually you have a change log for 2.8 that should be dropping for thursdays update?

lol that gave me a good laugh glad they were able to swap it out for you.
[Captivate Android Development] LucasBrazil1984:
FWIW, I flashed the call recording mod and haven't had any problems.
[Captivate Android Development] brianray14:
Loving 2.8.. Been the most stable rom since 2.2.. I do have one issue and it is a slight one. Every time Titanium backup is started, it thinks it's starting for the first time requiring me to reconfig. Otherwise, great work!
[Captivate Android Development] TRusselo:
anyone else see this? looks like a minor bug. though i havent seen it wrong for every battery warning only about 3/4 of them.

its either the rom or the theme (dont think so)... let me know... darkfire blue 3 firefly 2.8

never had the problem with 2.6 never tried 2.7
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
I've seen this and on supernova, I saw someone mention it in the phoenix thread too.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
Never had this issue on previous versions of FF... after 2.5 I got my hands on call recording and have been modifying themes since so that they will work with it. Before that, I was on darkfire blue and had never experienced that issue.
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
Not positive but I think that the framework from phoenix was used for darkfire and I think it was just something adam miss when he went to the new js8 base.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
10tonhammr is porting dark fire specifically to FF now, so lets hope that will get fixed
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
Im not sure about anyone else, but MIUI music hi-jacks the headset button and there is no setting that I can see in it to toggle this.

Im a music junkie and have paid for PowerAMP and iSyncr so I delete MIUI music from my SGS (need to do via SU file manager app), and I would not be surprised if there are other bugs/feature issues that cause problems.

I have tired nearly every music app there is and some are just not good eg. some cannot handle answering a phone call via headset button while playing music.

Might be worth a shot to get rid of MIUI music if you have issues, and try Rings Extended app if you need a ringtone picker?
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:

Lost sound after upgrading to 2.8

So I uploaded from 2.7 to 2.8 today through FF mods. I ended up only having sound when i have headphones plugged in. Is anyone else expereience this issue.
[Captivate Android Development] brd912:
So if I remember correctly (waaay to many people have posted since so I couldn't find your post),you may have an update tomorrow? Or was that the kernal? Just wondering. I ventured off from firefly just to have something to flash,but im back. Always will be. Nothin tops this. As soon as my card comes in that mail,ill show my appreciation...(dumb paypal) lol
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
FF 2.9 is really close to completion, I have everything done (I think).

Just compiling it together, then testing, then release. Like always, it should be out tomorrow morning or most probably tonight if I keep hauling ass.

I will put up a changelog in about an hour.

[Captivate Android Development] LongDono:
The only thing that bugs me in FF, and I think it's illegal for me to say anything bad about FF (looks around nerviously), is that the unlock sound is always full volume, regardless of what volume you set System volume to.

The only way to stop it is to set System volume to zero, in which case you also don't get any system notifications (duh). It doesn't help that the unlock noise is incredibly irritating. Hmm, I bet there is a file somewhere I could delete to stop that noise from being played...
[Captivate Android Development] brd912:
Settings/sound/screen lock sounds. Just uncheck the box

[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
What exactly is this? Wi-fi sleep time?

If not, is there any way to change wi-fi sleep time? Remember we could set it in OCLF? Its always 14 minutes otherwise I think.

I suggest you remove MIUI music and the Google Music app.

Google Music was also high-jacking the headset button, just like MIUI music. Poor app design IMO, so there may be other issues as well. Maybe move them over to optional downloads.

Wi-Fi scan time is how often the system looks for a Wi-Fi access point when it's not connected.

I don't know if this was specific to me or will happen to anyone who had been running with no clock. After updating, the clock reappeared as is should have. Going into setting, I saw that hide clock and hide AM/PM were both checked. Had to uncheck both boxes, exit settings, re-enter settings and then recheck the boxes. Once checked everything was fine.

I believe that's normal. I've read on Pheonix's thread that you have to toggle it atleast 1 time for it to work correctly.
