A quick word about the fix provided by Swift.Judgement

I have tried them personally and they work absolutely as advertised. I will include the backlight versions in the next update.

Thanks Swift.
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
More than likely correct. Mine starting doing it two weeks after buying and still totally stock. It's a known issue and I got a new phone. It's specific to a certain imei range.
[Captivate Android Development] roger_n:
I can't find the thread now but I read that the reason the phone shut-off is because it throttles down to 100 Mhz and it doesn't like that. The fix is suppose to be to use setcpu and configure it not to go below 200 Mhz this may drain the battery a little quick but that is better then a shut-down.

setcpu can be found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=505419

I'll see if this fixes my problem and report back.

Roger :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
Well i'm absolutely loving FF so far, no major issues at all (missing clocks and such don't count imo). Again great job Xtreme and everyone else that contributed to this effort. Special mention to Adam of course for laying the groundwork and passing it on to Xtreme ;)

Bluetooth voice dialing works!

I just switched over to this rom from Cognition 3.04. Mainly for the bluetooth dialing features and reports of good gps. I can say that both of these things work very nicely. I tried the gps this morning on my drive to work (43 miles) and it never did not loose a lock. It did have me on side roads every now and again but still it is huge improvement on what I had in the past.

Very nice work by the

entire

Fire Fly team on this rom. I really like the custom dialers that can be added. I would like to apply the dialer theme to the rest of the phone but I have to figure that one still.

The launcher is the only thing I do not like but that can be changed easy enough.
[Captivate Android Development] Duyo:
I'm a little slow to update my phone with the new roms. I am on Fire fly 2.0.4 and got it working really nice. I put The phone.apk in from 2.1 and have not had a FC yet and the call and message buttons work. I have the clock and my alarm icon works. Can I use one of those zip files to fix the backlight when screen is touched with my current configuration? If not, that's ok. I can live with it. Thank you.

Quick question, I looked but havent seen anything about it. Why is the stay awake while plugged in option gone. Is there any way to get it back, I find it useful when my phone is plugged into my truck for music
[Captivate Android Development] silent.bob:
Was wondering where that went. I thought I just forgot where it was.

Phone: Captivate

ROM: FireFly 2.1

Kernel: Speedmod K13A

[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
X, fyi I think the . in the ROM ZIP files causes what ever is after it in the file name to not show up on the phone in CWM Recovery so you may want to rename them to not have .'s

eg. the file just showed up as 'FireFly_2.zip' for me.

I think SGS Tools is missing as an included app in the OP.

Updating now.

Also did anyone check out animated GIF's? I browse reddit and am pretty sure they were working on 2.2 Rogers stock, but not 2.1. Froyo I though supported it.

Wow. The theme is amazing. Skillz!

How can I change the boot screen? I know on stock, I had 2 screens:

1) i896 samsung (black)

2) Rogers (white)

Now after flashing ff, I have 3:

1) i896 samsung

2) Galaxy S i897 (black)

3) ff blue spinning circle with android guy

I guess my question is: how can I change the 2nd boot screen?

I think i have encountered a BUG:

While using mobileAP , when phone is charging internet is normal however when ever phone is not plugged in data is really slow.

It's kinda of bothersome when you dont have a charger at hand.

Add that to the list...

Lovin your rom , thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
Great job on FireFly 2.1! The only issues I've run into so far all have to do with Gmail. First, the issue quoted, and second, the black on black (mail count is black on the black background). It's driving me nuts. I tried replacing Gmail.apk with the one quoted; however, it's not replacing it. I checked the permissions on the folder (mounted r/w) and files and they seem to be correct. I've tried doing it through Root Explorer and Droid Explorer, which both seem to copy the file over fine, but nothing has changed. I'm having the same problem with the Mms.apk for the time stamp fix.

Also, would it be possible to re-add the English (Canada) locale to the next release? I think there are enough Canadian users to make it worthwhile.

Thanks again for your great work!
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
I second the english (can) locale addition.

For your mms prob I posted a cwm flashable fix for that a few pages back. I think someone did the same for the gmail bg prob too in cwm form too.

5th Lockscreen???

so what is this 5th lockscreen I've seen mentioned a couple times? firefly didn't come with it and I haven't seen any updates. Just curious.
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
The browser , when saving files, tends to read the extension from the first ".". So you'll need to rename the file to add the ".zip" extension back on, otherwise it will mess it up. Probably best if people avoid adding extra periods in their files.

On another note, any ETA on the next FF? Im excited for that one.

At least you don't have the AT&T bootscreen like me. I don't even know how I got that >.>

I'd also like to note that the Mms.apk fix in the OP did not work for me. I had to use the CWM version.
[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
Go to applications under setting and then all. Select gmail, then clear data and force stop.

If this doesn't fix, then reboot. You'll be fine after that.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Next release will come, but I want to make sure I fix most of the issues you guys have.

I am a little bit busy with something else right now, but here is what I can think of so far for next release.

I haven't done some of these yet, but they are on my list.

- Stock gmail.apk

- English (canada) locale

- Fixed backlight and alarm icon

- 5 lockscrens

- Other minor framework fixes

- Try to fix mobile tracker

- Mess around with the camera (auto focus stuff)

- Fix GB keyboard

ummm, there is probably more, but I am drawing blanks now. I think the update should be sometime early next week.

Let me know if there is more, I will probably add this list in the #2 post of the thread.
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
The "Force stop" button is greyed out. I tried everything again after rebooting, but still no luck. I guess I'll have to put up with it until the next release. Thanks for trying to help.

EDIT: I managed to fix my Gmail issues by doing the following:

1. Backup all user apps + system data in Ti Backup Pro

2. Freeze (not sure if necessary, but I was trying something else) and uninstall Gmail in Ti Backup Pro

3. Restore Gmail app+data in Ti Backup Pro

4. Install Gmail from Android Market

This seems like a really odd way of doing it, but it was the only thing that finally worked for me. After freezing & uninstalling the included Gmail, I was able to drop the Gmail.apk from the thread into system/app, but it failed to open.
[Captivate Android Development] GYIVIjuNkY:
i dont know where else to ask this question, but seeing as you are one of the developers...is there a timeframe on when Supernova is coming out? Im interested because I love your roms but i want a JS3 based one
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Only I have that answer. I am thinking in about a week. I am still on vacation in california.

[Captivate Android Development] GYIVIjuNkY:

Sure, I can take a look at that.

yup, i flashed it over 2.0.5
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Team Phoenix, does this ROM come with the AT&T boot screen? I just noticed my phone having the AT&T boot screen today and I can't remember whether I had it before or not when I was on Cognition.

Also for your next update, it'd be great if you can remove the low battery restriction where it does not allow you to use the camera and music player. Unless you already did remove that restriction...
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
I flashed this ROM from stock--No AT&T boot screen.

And I believe the low battery restrictions have already been removed.
[Captivate Android Development] chinesedevil:
Mine doesnt have any AT&T stuff in it. Just the i896 screen followed by the i897 screen followed by blue whirling android dude.
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
Did you flash to stock using Odin before flashing the rom? If so that could be how you got it, don't know for sure just speculating.

Hey X, looks like a good update. I was wondering if you put any more thought into the Samsung Apps. I think someone mentioned it was working for 2.0.5, but I don't remember exactly what was said (and I can't find it through search).

Second, could you update SGS Tools? It looks like a new dev took over the project and he added some sweet stuff to it. He added the ability to download ROMs straight from SGS Tools, so you might want to talk to him about including Firefly in that :)
[Captivate Android Development] hey_joe:
Phoenix Rising 4.5 and Firefly are the only ones included on the rom list on SGS tools 4.5. At least that's what I noticed:)
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
That is bc i am working with him on his new project when needed. We will get or updated roms in a future release..
[Captivate Android Development] dang3r1917:
Heh, good call. For some reason I thought only Phoenix 4.5 was there. Either way, hopefully the next Firefly can be part of the next SGS Tools update as well.
[Captivate Android Development] Sledutah:
I've always had the AT&T boot screen, no matter which rom I've flashed. I almost always using Odin 1-Click to go back to stock first. J just flashed back to stock and flashed FF 2.1, AT&T boot screen is the first thing that comes up. Then the i897 screen then the blue android.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I have samsung apps working, its just I need to edit the build prop a little more and test it out. I will release a CWM flashable once I am confident it will work without causing too much trouble. If all goes well, it will be included in the next update.
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Well assuming you got your phone from at&t that would be considered normal. Lots of these guys are canadians though and would rather not see the death star anywhere on their phones.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancered:
I'm loving the ROM...very, very nice work. I only need help with two things:

1. Is there something I should do to login my Yahoo? I get a Username or password incorrect. (530 Access denied: Need SMTP privileges to access this server.) I know my username and pass are correct.

2. This may be a bit vain...but is there a flashable zip of the music app Serendipity uses? Does anyone know which I'm referring to?
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
1. There are threads explaining how to set up yahoo in the native email apk. Honestly since it us a pita, yahoo has become my junk mail account and I just use the yahoo app to check it occasionally.

2. You can get it by grabbing his rom and taking the music.apk out of it and copying it over the existing in /system/app

Edit...pretty sure this is the the one you want. http://db.tt/JrtQeWH
[Captivate Android Development] Lancered:
It worked normally on the last ROM I was testing (Paragon) but I'll see about searching for the threads.

I don't think I can copy the .apk over once I've already flashed FireFly, unless I reflash? Can I sideload it maybe?

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] The_Zodiac:
wow man i just wanted to take a moment and put in my 2 cents

well ive been known to find bugs in roms but i haven't found any in this one so far. (i havent tried firefly since when it was initially released)

really diggings it overall, the stock lock screen, swype word correct and such.

almost no lag/none and good battery life so i cant complain.
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Well the problem seems to relate to yahoo on wifi.

You need to use adb or a file manager such as root explorer or super manager to copy the music apk (latest is a couple posts down from this one) to the proper location
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
You dont have to flash. Just grab that Music apk and place it on your sdcard. Now using root explorer or any other file manager that gives you root access

navigate to the music.apk > copy it > go back to the root directory > click system > then click apps > paste it here.

If you get a error saying you dont have rights, just hit the button on the top to toggle mounting option.

Hope this helps.
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
this is for sure the latest music.apk from mikey's rom

I flashed to stock using ODIN once. I guess that would explain why I got the AT&T boot screen. Guess I'll have to flash to Rogers Froyo next time before flashing whatever ROM I choose to use.

Phone Shutdown

xtreme,

I posted earlier today that my phone shut down twice yesterday and today it shut down two more times. Someone else reported the same thing I know most people will say it's probably hardware related but I have my doubts. I recommended FF 2.1 to one of my friends and he just sent me a text stating his phone shut down and it never has before.

I'm not complaining FF 2.1 is an awesome ROM except for this shut down issue. I beta tested SuperNova for over a week and it never shut down the same for Phoenix 4.5.:confused:

Adam if you're listening maybe by chance you can accidentally send me a link for the next SN beta drop. I know you are on vacation but I also know you have something all ready cooked up just dying to be tested :D

Roger :cool:

Edit: Make that 3 times it shut down again at 1:13
[Captivate Android Development] Sledutah:
I installed ff 2.1 a few hours ago and it is running smooth and fast. No problems that I've seen.

Thanks for everybody's hard work in putting this together, especially xtremekilla09.
[Captivate Android Development] rwj5279955:
Not sure if this has been mentioned, or if anyone cares.

I like to use my original Android I.D. and it took me a while to figure out busybox needs to be installed to change it.

I'm only mentioning it because I never ran into this on any other ROMs, so for anyone who uses I.D. changer, here you go.

I like this ROM though. I think you did a great job!
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Damn, that sucks. I will see what I can find about this issue. I really want to make sure this kind of thing does not happen because of the ROM.

Do me a favor try another kernel. See if that helps. You can flash it using the Kernel flasher app.

Also, can you tell me if your phone was charging when it shutdown? or were you doing something on the phone (i.e. Screen was on) and it suddenly went off.

Is anybody else getting this on FF 2.1, please report in.
[Captivate Android Development] roger_n:
No my phone was not on a charger when it shut down but I did try SetCPU that is suppose to help with the charger-death issue I set it to 200 mhz when the screen is off it did not help. I just installed FB2 v07 and disabled SetCPU let's see if that helps. Hey it just Could be that certain phone are picky, for the most part everyone is happy with your ROM so I wouldn't worry too much. What's weird is it never happen with SN or PR. When it happened the phone was idle screen off.

Roger:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] silent.bob:
Read alot about the random power off issue. My cappy is a referb. And about two weeks after I got it I started powering off. My imei was outside the range so tried the setcpu workaround which worked for about another week. Was just about to send it back when I decided to flash my first custom rom (firefly 1.5). Haven't had the issue since. Been thru firefly 2.0.4,2.0.5, 2.1 and now playing with phoenix 4.5.

Would agree that every phone is different.

Try reflashing the rom if the kernel doesnt do the trick. Or even try a coding flash with a master clear to make sure there isn't any residule from previous flashes.

I seriously love this rom. I don't think any rom runs as smooth as this. Idk if I'm the only one thats ever noticed, but 2.2.1 runs like crap on the captivate. everything about it is un smooth to me. 2.2, which FireFly uses, is smooth and runs amazing.

Hi just want to ask is it just me my battery ran out so quick max it last 8 hours using the latest speedmod kernel and it just sitting on my pocket
[Captivate Android Development] Lancered:
I'll report that my phone randomly turned off too. It was charging. It wouldn't turn on so I had to remove the battery. But this happened to me once (just once) on Paragon as well so *shrug* don't really care.

Question: What does the "Update" in the camera settings (tools tab) do? I ticked it by mistake and got a FC. So went back and every time I tick it, it force closes.

Thanks all for the help with email/music.apk. I couldn't get the email working but while searching I found K-9 which I already love, and my music.apk is working great. Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] roger_n:
I flashed to the FB2 v0.7 kernel about 6 hours ago and no shut downs lets see if this resolves my issue it still too early to tell. Everytime I flash a new ROM I go back to stock and master clear so that's not it but thanks for your comments. I didn't mention that it never shut down with the stock Eclair from AT&T.

Bravo Adam....

This ROM has solved all of my Rogers 2.2 issues. I now have a ROM which:

- Is blazingly fast while being kind to my battery

- has resolved my internal SD mounting issues after the 2.2 update

- allows bluetooth dialing

- gives me an excellent GPS lock

No issues so far (after 2 days) will update if I encounter any.

Thank you very much.

It shows that I have service, but it wont let me do any phone functions until the reboot? Has anyone else had this issue? And is there a fix?
