.. battery is still declining faster than normal. I'm at 74% since unplugging at 8:45 this morning. It is now 12:19. I've used my very little. Although i have checked osmonitor, it doesnt show my gallery on at all.

[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Here's a couple things I can remember

Gallery drain : need gallery3d.apk replaced : Gallery would sit at %30 to %50 for about 45 mins, then drop down to a steady %1-%3

(Thought I had it resolved with removing a corrupted jog, but ended up having to replace gallery3d.apk)

WiFi drain : reported by some

Auto Rotate : hits the CPU between %1 and %4 every 2 seconds unless disabled.

Work has me slammed, so I might not even get to view this thread for a few days after tonight. Hope this helps
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
i thought the gallery3d.apk was the replacement.
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
Have you checked your, Settings, About Phone, Battery Use, Cell Standby...

Does it show Time without signal 50%?

if so, turn on Flight Mode, and then turn it off... and that might help.
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
also if you can replace Email.apk (2.2.1) with Email.apk (2.3) that would be awesome too!

Link to Email.apk 2.3 (has exchange security removed)

..i wish it did. cell standby is only 2%. Display is a scortchin 97%.. using a dark wallpaper..not live. ..i dont know.

They are both called Gallery3D.apk.

[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
For comparison, running RC5 with replaced non-buggy gallery, replaced Mms with no text logs, and themed Continuum dialer, running JuiceDefender to power up Wifi every 15 minutes.

At the 1 hour mark coming off charge - 96%

At the 2 hour mark coming off charge - 93%

At the 3 hour mark coming off charge - 91%

I fail to see the reason to flash back to stock every time you flash a new rom. This is a completely pointless step for me that i avoid at all cost. The only time you ever need to touch Odin and mess around with download mode is when something gets borked during a standard flash from clockwork mod. I have been beta testing kernels and roms for eSPyeL and have not flashed back to stock since i was running congnition 2.3b8 which was a couple months back. Simple rule to follow is if the rom your flashing to has Voodoo Lagfix or Universal Lagfix, then just flash right from clockwork mod and dont disable the lagfix. When flashing from clockwork to a new rom, clear the user data/ factory reset, and clear the cache.

We have clockwork mod so we dont need to go back to a completely useless stock config, so you can then go and flash your phone a second time with the rom you want. And ill also mention that there are NO traces of the old rom after flashing over it with clockwork mod. Im not even sure where people get these myths from.

RC5 Battery issue

Hi ,

I have noticed that Blinky when turned on is draining my battery - other wise it runs really well. I had like 80% battery at the EOD yesterday with Blinky Turned off

Can I uninstall Blinky? DOes it hurt any functionality in the ROM?

Chad
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
Same here, I have added the Gallery3d.apk and disabled HSPA which stopped the 50% without signal. I have recharged, turned off and recharged, reset battery stats and still, after being unplugged for 1hr 36m and screen on for 36m, am now down to 85% already. The first day of flashing and TiBu restore while on Wifi and had not rebooted, got 20+ hours with plenty left when I hooked it up.

And before you ask, I did a batch restore of only missing apps with data and pick and chose the ones I wanted individually to make sure nothing was restored that shouldn't have been. I could have missed something though.
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
2:19, 51% left. Wow. It's like its getting worse. I was just using for some tasks, but man. Maybe i didnt have that bug to begin with. I just figured i could always use more battery life, why not try to improve it. I'm almost positive i have the right gallery3d.apk. I downloaded the sucker 4 times trying to figure it out. Then followed deanhatescoffee's method.
[Captivate Android Development] wonder186:
Which modem are you using and what do you have it set to? Automatic Or 850WCDMA only?

On other ROMs I have used the JL2 with only 850 WCDMA enabled and gotten cell standy #'s like you. I'm currently using the KP1 and getting 12% cell standby and 50% without signal.

I just cycled flight mode. I'll see what happens to time without signal. If it doesn't improve I plan to go the the JL2 modem with only 850 WCDMA enabled.

Battery is down 81% after 7hrs 20mins with little use. A few emails containing pictures and a few texts.
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
I believe I'm using the JK4 Modem. The once that came stock with RC5. I havent messed with any dials so its probably on automatic. Battery life was exceptional until pushed that gallery3d.apk trying to improve my battery life. Thats what i get i suppose. ( ..if it aint broke, don't fix it :mad: )
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
I just put in JPY modem, and I no longer have the 50% without signal issue anymore...

have rebooted a few times, and it seems to be stable.

update.xxjpy.modem.zip
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
where would i find % without signal?
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
I dont think you are going to get 850 with that one unless you have done the old steps when flashing back to stock.

If you do...let me know.
[Captivate Android Development] wonder186:
Why the JPY modem? No WCDMA 850 = slow speeds

Settings - About Phone - Battery Use - Cell Standby

touch Cell Standby and it will show you Time on and Time without signal

[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
i am very happy with the ROM, how snappy my phone is. The modem he chose, the kernel, everything. Bummed about the sudden battery drain, but oh well.. It's not severe enough to make me reflash or try a different modem. It was good before, so im really hesitant to change anything major. I will probably hang on to a charger until an updated RC5 is released, then hopefully things will be back to normal!:)
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
wow.. ok. It does say time without signal, 50%. I take it thats a bad thing and thats why my battery is draining?
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
I'm on the modem included and am at %3 cell standby

Could it be a geographical location thing? I'm in Florida.

Also, noticed that the gallery was still running, so I went back to the ROM original gallery after removing my DCIM folder. Put the DCIM back in and saw gallery spike for about 2 minutes, then nothing. Weird stuff.

Only thing that I have left is the auto rotate blip every few seconds between %1 and %4. I can't disable it because I bounce between landscape and portrait a lot.

I'll check the thread again when I get home. Working from home tonight since it's all remote work anyway
[Captivate Android Development] RaneMan:
I don't understand...I purposely pushed a corrupt file to my phone to re create the force close then i pushed the logsprovider.apk that I posted last night and everything works great, no force close and no sms in the logs.....can anyone else confirm the forced close issue???

was mistake all worked out just did not realize stops NEW messages from showing

Gotcha....whew. Guess I should have posted that it will only stop new sms unless you clear your logs first. When I pushed mine I rm LogsProvider.apk then push LogsProvider.apk /system/app/....that clears logs...thanks for the feedback....it is confirmed working

yep, out of the box it stuck at 1900 band 2...

but doing this...

*#2263# -> [3] GSM BAND -> [1] GSM ALL] -> Select GSM All Bands -> Back -> [4] COMBI BANDS -> [8] WCDMA 850 -> Add WCDMA 850

gives me 850 Band 5 back

but it also gives me the signal loss issue back... DOOH!

I think the signal loss issue has to be related to enabling the "850 Band 5"

going Back to good ole' KP1 again...

WiFi fix

What does it do? I can connect to my router, but get no response from the browser or other internet services. This is with the basic RC5.0 ROM and WPA PSK security. Does the fix deal with this issue or am I facing something else?
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
I have a near wore out battery (one cell is starting to swell), so any battery drain on mine is more noticeable...

(my new battery is on order from Samsung...)

it may not be much, but it does cause a drain on your battery...

I am just to the point where I have to enable flight mode, and disable it after each reboot, to stop the signal loss issue.

I also don't notice any service interuption with it... it just causes an unnecessary battery drain.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
I thought that doing that was not enough to give you 850 even if it shows there or at least that is what the old flash to stock then the jk8 modem (or something like that ) myth used to say. :D
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
yeah, I am giving up on modem searching, and just dealing with the issue, and back on KP1 again. KP1 gets me better bandwidth and signal strength in my area.

[Captivate Android Development] coscom:
I am not undervolting or overclocking at all, I just chose this rom because it seemed to have less issues from what I was reading and it has the bluetooth dialing. Is there any way to overvoltage to fix this issue? Or is it just better to hope that it was just a bad flash and reflash RC5? Or RC 4 since that seemed to not have this issue on my phone? Sorry to be a pest but I am something of a newb with flashing these phones. Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Well, it was a thought. There is no way to overvolt.

Thanks for the link, I'll read through it as I have time, I think I'm under the number stated so maybe I should just take it back and hope to get a better one. I'm guessing I'd have to Odin back to stock? Is that enough to not get in trouble for returning a phone that has had rom's? Thanks again for answering my questions. Have a nice day.

Email issues

Have searched thru the thread and have not found this issue.I used to be able to delete multiple emails by checking and deleting. Since flashing rc5 it says deleting but does not actually delete. I have to long press each one and delete each seperately. I have flashed a few times no diff.

5.1

RC 5.1 uploading...
[Captivate Android Development] alaimar:
I've been running this ROM for couple of days and I just want to share my experience.

Battery: Unplugged at 3pm with 87% 10:20pm at 5%. Some calls web and 3h movie watching.

Signal: Great signal strength using the ROM modem. I was in the ER where all the nurses were shocked I could actually make calls. They actually brought several people over because they didn't believe it. I actually told them I had a special phone not available to everyone and they believed.

Performance: Very snappy with no OC and lagfix disabled. The ROM itself performs great without it.

Great job and thank you.

Edit: forgot to mention gps is awesome !!!

I think we are all well aware of how bad my upload speed sucks hhaha. The update only is done uploading but the full rom is only like 50%.

- removed text messages from call log

- buttons light up when screen pressed

- samsung keyboard fixed
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
haha indeed we all know but I think many are just waiting for the update so its all good.
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
Disable HSPA and the signal loss issue will go away.
[Captivate Android Development] CapnPez:
Would something go wrong if we run "keep the lights on" even with the buttons light up with screen touch fix? I have actually liked having the lights always on when the screen is on instead of only for a set time after you touch the screen.

I've already installed the fixed gallery, I don't get texts, and I don't use the samsung keyboard, so I suppose there wouldn't be any sense in installing the update at this point anyway. But I was wondering about the keep the lights on for future reference. Thanks!

Broke the Animations

Hi All,

Been running various versions of Paragon. Definitely my favorite ROM thus far. :)

It seems though, in all my messing around, I somehow broke the animations.

It was working fine and snappy, but I went into Settings > Display > Animation and changed something.

It was originally set to "No animation."

I changed it to "All animations" and now the transition animations are SUPER slow. But when I change it back to "No animation," it now really shows no animations. (!)

Imagine that. I'll probably flash to 5.1 when it gets here, but if anyone knows how to solve this or what I did wrong, it'd be helpful.

Thanks much!
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:

[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
damn.. flash took like 3 seconds

nice

The changes in the update are the same changes I made to the gallery and logs. Never noticed the bottom lights and don't use the Samsung keyboard. Once the gallery change was made, the battery was much better.

Only odd thing is the auto rotate sensor still popping up. Never checked in any previous ROMs, so I don't know if the sporadic hits are normal or not.

/system/bin/sensorserver_yamaha still pops in every couple seconds, but I can't tell how much battery it uses. Could be a non issue though, I have no idea.

I'm charging to full right now and will re-cal the battery before I head out on the road. Should be a steady 8 hours of music and headphones today with normal work stuff (few hundred miles of travel to clients), so this should give a good indicator of battery life on the 5.1 update. I'll post back later today with some results and details.
[Captivate Android Development] NISMOFO:
So does a Bluetooth headset work with this? I thought I read on the first page headset support. I assume that meant Bluetooth?

This is my 3rd ROM to Flash, but this is the first time I haven't been able to connect my headset with a custom ROM. The only things I also installed were the 5.1 patch on top of 5.0 and a Black Gmail theme.

I restored all of my Bluetooth related files using Titanium Backup. I'm lost. It recognizes my laptop on Bluetooth...just not my headset.
[Captivate Android Development] wonder186:
This ROM does work with Bluetooth headset. There might be an issue from restoring your BT settings/files with TB especially if you are restoring the files in red. Green files are OK to restore, red files can cause issues.
