[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Ive had an odd issue move in, but its not ROM related so no point in posting it. My question is if I start over and flash RC1 and then I flash RC3 (or RC4) depending on when I do it do am I missing anything? Meaning if I skip RC2 or RC3 depending on when RC4 comes out do I miss anything?

Beer is kicking in so if repeat myself, my bad.

So far so good on this ROM. Noticed a couple of minor things to mention for future releases. No show stoppers though, will run this for a while and see how it goes.

The circle battery mod doesnt show accurately when plugged in as others stated.

GPS is ok, about what Phoenix 2.0 was for me. I may apply the jpa files to see how it goes.

Couldnt update to modded 3D gallery with SGS tools, due to read-only errors.

So far thats it and those are all very minor. Nice job.
[Captivate Android Development] mark_20:
Initial Observations

I like the ROM on first pass, it is fairly quick and the GPS seems to work very very well. I got a 10 meter lock in less than 15 seconds inside my house. I have a couple of observations.

1. No Group Ringtones: This was in the Froyo 2.2 but seems to be missing from all the ROMs based on 2.2.1. Can this be added back in?

2. Stay Awake is no longer an option, but this seems to be an issue with all 2.2.1 based ROMs.

3. Taskbar Icons: I would like to change the icons on the task bar to ones that are more easily read with aging eyes. Can you post a non-themed framework-res.apk that I could run through the UOT Kitchen?

I will check out the battery life and GPS tracking and let you know how it goes.

Darky 8.1 JUSt finished installing for me LMAO.

But I will deff. give this a run after I get Darky customized.

That's how it always happens for me. I get everything exactly how I want it, then get the urge to flash a new ROM and have to recustomize everything ._.

Newbie needs assistance with Paragon

Well new Android user here. Decided to try Paragon on my Captivate. I've loaded the Paragon.zip rom and update.zip to my external SD card. Using ROM Manager when I attempt to Install ROM from SD it fails saying that it can not find the ROM image. Any help would be appreciated, I know just enough to be REALLY dangerous.

Had
[Captivate Android Development] krushin:
With Voodoo sound, this would be the end all, be all rom for me. But since i'm a huge fan of music ill stick to darkyy :( . But i will be looking to see if/when this will be included. Ill look into adding it myself.
[Captivate Android Development] antimog:
It doesn't overclock to 1.28 unless you set it to that...
[Captivate Android Development] mark_20:
Installation instructions are in the original post.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Instructions are in the original post, but basically:

Copy update.zip and Paragon.zip to your internal SD card.

Boot into recovery and choose reinstall packages. This installs the update.zip.

It will reboot

Choose reinstall packages the second time and that takes you into the new recovery console. Choose to install zip from sd.

choose the zip (paragon zip).

Enjoy.

The volume up/down buttons are the up and down arrows and the power button is to select the option that is highlighted in recovery.

Good luck.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Coming soon...
[Captivate Android Development] apbamaman:
Kind of new to the Captivate stuff myself. Know how to flash, all that stuff, but what is the deal with the "lbstestmode", how do you get to that, and what are the steps to help with your GPS position? I've turned off the wireless network deal, but I only get two locks on a satellite.

Thanks in advance

[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Done and working. RC2 coming up.
[Captivate Android Development] deanhatescoffee:
Alrighty, took the phone out for a GPS test. It locked so fast last night in my house, I hoped tracking would work awesomely as well. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. In driving around Portland for about 2 hours, I only noticed "approximate" locks (within 50 meters) 4 times using Google Navigator. It never locked long enough to be able to give me any voice guidance. That was disappointing, but all ROMs have similar GPS tracking results so I'm not surprised. Everything else on this seems to be working great. This ROM is smooth like buttah.

For future GPS tests, is there an app that will more accurately track locks?

[Captivate Android Development] kennonk:
Aw crap was doing some heavy usage today at work for more battery testing so I am down to 35%...going to seem like forever to charge up to 100 so I can flash!
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Thanks, but if I flashed RC1 can I go straight to RC4 and not lose any updates? That is my question, are the updates comprehensive from the orignal version I guess is what I am asking. So if I go from RC1 straight to RC4 as an update do I miss anything not flashing RC2 and RC3?

Im not sure I can stand stock...even for a night!

[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Just curious, why are we suppose to charge our battery to 100% before flashing?
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
If you are coming from stock you will need to flash the full RC3 rom then the update or wait until I finish uploading the full RC4 rom.

thank you very much...i will be patiently waiting for the rc4 to go purely stock to this goodness :)

Less than 100% bat on flash

FWIW, I have never done a flash at 100% battery. As long as I know its not going to die during the flash (say at least 10%) I have always just gone ahead and flashed. I'll wipe the battery stats as one of the steps.

And I have never had any kind of problem, battery life or otherwise, in doing so.

I have nothing against all those that warn to never flash except on a full battery, I'm just sharing my experience, for whatever that is worth.

Awesome! battery is stable now... Wasnt on RC3. Nice job!

I really like the fact that you dont need a pc any more to flash with this ROM... That is priceless!

CWM + Paragon RC4 = Bliss
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
This is my experience as well minus the wiping battery stats.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Worth the wait my friend. It's nice to find a ROM that takes care of the essentials, doesn't kill you with power sucking eye candy and pays attention to the little things. I've had the best GPS on his releases and can actually use it for daily travel to different clients. Battery life has always been good too. At %98 now after a full charge and a barrage of tests.

Well done eSPyeL~!

[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
I have flashed with charge as low as 30% with no problems.
[Captivate Android Development] Killerfish1450:
You could flash RC3 then the update rather than wait for the upload. It would be a lot of work but could probably be done in less than the 17 min left in the full upload.
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
All I can say is wow. On RC3 I was OC'd to 1280 and got linpack around 17. Haven't OC'd yet on RC4 and getting around 15 on linpack. Seems much smoother. Can't wait to figure out how this newer voltage app works.

Nice job, very nice!!!
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:
I've tried to set the max clock speed to 1600 twice now, each time it froze up the phone to where the only way to unfreeze was to pop the battery out.

I installed and rebooted again before doing anything... any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
I wouldn't even try 1600mhz. Very few phones if any can handle that. Most phones will handle 1300 with no problem. 1200 should be very stable for anyone.
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
Every phone varies, some up to 1200 some up to 1400 etc... You need to find your sweet spot..
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:
1300 is like lightning. mid 17s on Linpack

normal phone use is super fast and smooth also
[Captivate Android Development] damnitdave:
mine has been stable so far at 1400.... will keep my fingers crossed... did 4 linpack runs at got 18.9, 18.8, 18.8 and 18.7.... good work eSPyel this thing is blazing!!

Woot.. super-smooooooth.. a bunch smoother than even rc3.

Now, I need you to make a rom for my Nook Color :)

damn, i litteraly just downloaded 3.0 like 30 minutes ago! good thing i haven't flashed yet!
[Captivate Android Development] iceman718:
Sweet, can't wait to try the new kernel. And full ROM when I have more time.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
If updating from a previous Paragon release...

If you are coming from a previous release of Paragon by installing the update, I have a suggestion...

Before flashing the update, use Voltage Control and reset your max clock speed to 1000.

I was running with the 1200 OC on Paragon RC3 with no problem, and had left my settings there. When I flashed the RC4 update, my phone froze everytime during the startup. I'd get my launcher, but before I could actually use the phone, before all the icons even finished loading on the screen, the phone would lock up.

I had to go into recovery and then use ADB Shell to delete the voltage control file (thereby setting the phone back to the default max clock of 1000). Then the phone booted just fine, and I could start playing with OC again (and NOT saving to boot till I know its stable at the higher clock).
[Captivate Android Development] VinceG:
A bit of a noob question.

If i install the update, will it update the kernel also?

I made the mistake of installing the speedmod kernel because i got a bit overexcited and it screwed with the gps stability
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
The RC4 update script should have deleted the previous OC settings and set everything to 1000mhz. Did you have any modified init scripts to set OC settings?
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Yes. It will update the kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Nope, all I had was the init script created by the Voltage Control app.

If your update script did create a new script that was supposed to set it back to 1000, the the one I deleted was NOT the one created by the VC app, but rather the one your script created.

Now I really wish I had looked at the file, or at least at the timestamp of the file, before I deleted it, so I could have seen if it was my old script or your new one.

In any case, deleting it immediately resolved the lockups. And I did try 6 reboots, of which every one froze up, before I deleted the script.

If your update script created that voltage control script, then my advise of resetting the OC before flashing the update won't help any...

As different phones can handle different amounts of OC and UV, I can see some people having no problems like I had if there phone can handle whatever is happening.
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
Kernel hz = 100? Whys that? 500 is whats usually recommended and 250 is samsung default I think. Is the kernel actually smooth like this?
[Captivate Android Development] bethanensinger:
is the update zip updated to 4.0
[Captivate Android Development] apbamaman:
Downloading now....
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
Is there anyway you can post your theme? That way if I decide to use another and don't like it I can just use yours again?
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
The voltage control app shouldn't have been able to create an init script. /system is mounted read only. The VC app creates it's script in /data/. My init script looks for the VC script in /data and if it's there runs it, if not it sets the defaults to 1000mhz.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
OC followup

I use StabilityTest v1.2.

On RC3, I ran 30 cycles at 1200 and UV of -50mv.

Now on RC4, I only got 4 cycles at 1200 and zero uv.

So, I can see why my phone was now freezing at 1200 where it use to be okay at 1200 on RC3, assuming that the voltage control script that I deleted was actually my old one, and not a new one created by your update.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Yes, the kernel is smooth like this. I started setting HZ to 100 in my first version of the kernel. I believe I was the first captivate kernel to do this, but I could be wrong. I have seen other kernels doing it now as well. Everything is smooth and it helps with the fantastic battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
You will have to play with the UV. It may actually be more stable with a higher UV.
[Captivate Android Development] vtrao:
You say Flash back to stock via Odin does it matter if I stock to 2.1 or 2.2
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
I will tomorrow. Time for bed...
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
If I'm understanding, your update script only creates a default 1000mhz script if there is no existing script found in /data.

If there IS a script found in /data (assumingly created bt the VC app), then the update uses the existing one.

If I'm understanding correctly, then that is why my phone, after the update, was still at my prior setting of 1200mhz, and why it was freezing, since StabilityTest is showing my phone is no longer stable at 1200 on RC4.

Here is where I'm still lost though. The script I deleted was /system/etc/init.d and NOT /data.

So, that would mean I deleted a script created by your update, not the one created by the VC app, right? Yet, once I got the phone running, I ran the VC app, and it showed all default settngs (1000mhz zero UV), meaning it did not find an old script.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Umm... higher than zero?
[Captivate Android Development] aaronv89:
does anyone know where I can get a better understanding of how to OC/UV my phone and test it?
[Captivate Android Development] bethanensinger:
Sorry I am still wondering is the update zip updated to 4.0 or should I download the whole rom again
[Captivate Android Development] GYIVIjuNkY:
ewszrxdgvybkjn sorry that was me wiping the jizz off of my keyboard..v4.0 is out!!
[Captivate Android Development] juheimbu:
I'm not able to stay connected to data after the flash. Anyone else? I update direct from 3 to 4.
[Captivate Android Development] apbamaman:
No it's not. If you have a previous version of Paragon, use this link:

http://www.multiupload.com/5L9HUHVLJ3

If you're downloading something that's over 150 MB, that's the full ROM, you download that if you flashed back to stock. The update is around 40 MB or so.
[Captivate Android Development] aaronv89:
lolololololololol!!!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] bethanensinger:
thanks downloading now
[Captivate Android Development] krushin:
eSPyeL, im curious. What are your UV settings? (and im curious what everyone else is running) I know every phones a little different but i wanna see what other people have running on theres
[Captivate Android Development] bethanensinger:
I think he means might be more stable with a higher UV meaning like -50 but i dont really understand that
[Captivate Android Development] kennonk:
notification pull down lag is fixed

I know some folks, including myself, were having an issue with notification windows pull down lag. I am happy to report that it is fixed in RC4 w00t. Thank you!
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Ah, gotcha! A higher amount of UV, not a higher voltage! :)

I'll give it a shot, thanks!

I know that many don't like the StabilityTest app, and I agree that my phone can 'feel' perfectly stable, yet fail to get the suggested 20 successful cycles in StabilityTest.

Yet, on the very few roms (Paragon RC3 being one of them) that I CAN get 20+ successful cycles, then I KNOW that I am running a wonderful, extremely stable package.
