now that you point it out, yes i do notice

i belive this is how he removed the icon from the upper bar - all he did was make it a transparent spaceholder - clever

in any case my vote still goes towards removing the whole notification (it's not needed since the battery indicator says full or 100 when you are completely charged and it's very annoying that it's forced on and cannot be cleared)
[Captivate Android Development] Jammn:
???... Isn't that the battery icon that says FULL?
[Captivate Android Development] noside12123:
Yeah, that would be alot better to just remove that notification forever. Lol, Its really weird how it needs to tell you to remove the charger >_<
[Captivate Android Development] SmithEC:
I think he's talking about the blank space beside the word Info down in the notifications. There's an icon beside every other notification except that.

I thought the same thing you did when I first saw the post.

In any case, it's funny what any of us might find to be annoying.

For my use, I'm still lovin' it and have yet to find an annoyance.

One or two people complaining about an issue, that the majority is not having a problem with, does not constitute a fix being needed by the rom developer. Just because the issue pops up for you, you are going to immediately jump on the developer to fix it? I am saying don't discount that you screwed up. Fix it yourself, that is the whole point of what we are doing with our phones. If you don't know how, learn how! If you are not wanting to learn how and expect the dev to fix something for you that is not broken by them then you need to flash back to stock and stay there. The majority of the people here asking for a fix are one click solution types, they don't want to know how or why, they just want one click get it done and run to their friends and brag about how cool they are with their l33t r00t3d phone. If the developer gives instructions to install, flash and configure a certain way, then do it that way. Read the thread (at least the first few posts) before plugging your phone into the computer to get started. Then if you run into issues check the rest of the thread to see if it's already been reported. From there if you start restoring, configuring or screwing with stuff and something goes wrong don't come running to the dev to fix it (just a reminder they aren't doing this for a living usually and most of this is done in their spare time). Anyone with a technical position our background will tell you that the majority of the problems encountered will be user caused, but that doesn't mean that there are not any issues with the system it's just an unlikely cause if only one or two are having the issue. What gets me are the ones saying things like "everything was working fine until I restored my TiBU backup, is there going to be a fix for this?" Yes, there is a fix, flash back to stock and go jump off a bridge. This thread has over 2300 posts and a good majority of them are repeat questions with repeat answers or they are irrelevant including this post and your previous post.

stuff

Hey everyone, I've been reading everyone's comments and input and I appreciate both the praise and the constructive criticism. I also really appreciate the several donations from the past couple of days! It really helps push me forward to keep improving this rom and kernel.

That being said, I've been working hard on RC6. It's going to be a big upgrade over RC5/5.1. I'm really liking the red/black theme and I think it might be the default for RC6. It's changed quite a bit since I sent out the initial version to some beta testers. I've taken a lot of the feedback and trying to get most or all of it addressed in RC6.

I also wanted to thank all the community support for the ROM. I try to read all of the posts, but there is no way I can respond to all of the posts as well as all the PMs I get. It's awesome how helpful everyone is and there really isn't any flaming or anything like that going on in the thread. Thanks everyone!

This isn't good. I've tried un/reinstall BW and launcherPRO, as well as trying GOLauncherEX....nothing. LevelUP Studio says "There is a bug in the Samsung Update which prevents to save the settings file". It also says that there is a "manipulation available for root users on XDA Developers". I've searched for this "manipulation" and haven't found it yet. If someone knows about this workaround, any help would be appreciated. Thx all.

I can go into any Radio Shack and pick up all the parts to connect a recorder to my phone. Nothing illegal about it. Its what I do with it that might be illegal. But that is against me, not the provider of the tools to make the recording. It would be great if you added in the ability to record calls, and leave the concerns about how its used to the users.

Aside from the ones I PMed you about...try unlocking the hidden core on the CPU? (ok its a joke guys I dont want to see a ton of posts and threads now about this rumor LOL)

Have you tried the ROM without lag fix? Not disabling after installing but installing with no lag fix? I swear it is better specially when opening things like the Gallery with my gazillion icons and wallpapers :-)

BTW, are you ready to roll with RC6 and I did not even have one beta test of it...how are you going to release it without my seal of approval...tell me! :D
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Ha!

It is multi dpi ready - theme and apps.

Have not tried without lagfix. I'll do some testing though and see what I think.

Not ready to roll yet. Getting close. Still have more testing/tweaking and kernels to build. Don't worry you will get a beta when it's ready. :)

I don't know about this one. I like being able to silence my phone before it gets too loud.

Sorry about Andy on the pulldown. I have the pulldown exactly how I want it. Much faster/smoother now and the notifications have a white background so it works better with 3rd party apps.

Sure!

USB debugging is a default setting now. Not sure about miui music. I'll check into it.

No worries about the pull down, the wallpaper is pimp enough.

[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Also, I noticed something earlier this evening when making a video. I recorded a 4 minute video and the clarity on the visual was awesome. The sound had a hiss and sort of a small buzz to it through the entire video though. It was of my daughter's dance competition, so it was pin drop quiet in the beginning. It was silent at first, then the hiss/buzz started at about the 3 second mark and continued even when the music started. Can anyone duplicate this? I've taken other videos that were fine. This 4 minute video was 119mb also, so I think it recorded in HD. I played in on a 32" LCD when we got home and the picture quality was excellent. Can't tell what resolution though. (I'm not a video guy by any stretch). Not sure if the hiss/buzz is a bug/issue or just a random occurrence, but I thought it was worth mentioning to see if it can be reproduced.

call recording

I am frequently using a call recording program called Total Recorder (it is a great help in my work).

There are such ROMs where it is working properly but there are some where it is only recording what I am saying, and the other voices are not recorded.

F.e it is working fine on other rom, but not working on PARAGON.

Is anyone else having issues getting the Samsung Facebook Sync to work for contacts? I've tried a few different 2.2.1 based ROMs and its not working for any of them for me. I just get that there's temporary issues and to try again later.

I had the issue on this ROM, Perception, Serendipity, and even Cog 3.0.

I even tried before restoring anything with TiBU and doing it over WiFi before I even put my SIM card back in it, still get the error message.

I read somewhere that someone removed the Samsung Mobile app from their Privacy settings in Facebook...tried that too and still no go.

I don't know what kind of Juju you worked into this ROM but it's Amazing. Far and away the best I've tried.
[Captivate Android Development] keitht:
This looks interesting however, there is one concern I have regarding the themed dropdown notification. I have seen with other ROM's that try this, that the transparency causes issues with reading the text of certain things that occur such as downloading apps from the market. The download status in other themes that attempt this causes a black text on black background making it impossible to read. This is a big turn off. Once a download is complete, it looks fine. Not saying that this is happening here, but I am actually asking, does it? Otherwise, this looks very nice.
[Captivate Android Development] mindfrost82:
This happened for me on this ROM too. You can see the letters, but barely, its too dark of a font for the background. Like you said, once its downloaded its fine, and so far I've only noticed it when its listing the apps its downloading.

Awesome ROM ---a small but....

Hi all,

I am so loving this ROM.. best ROM for froyo..according to me..

For some reason, My flight mode gets turned on automatically and I loose the network..and cannot receive any calls.. This is happ'ng like 5 times a week...

Also to my observation, it mostly happens after I take off the phone off an overnight charge and I see the "No ATT network..,"

When it happens I typically go disable flight mode, and sometimes when it does not let me disable flight mode(hangs in some enabling state)-- I reboot and I am back in business

Not sure why this happens... Has anyone else faced this? Any solution/suggestion.

Thanks

[Captivate Android Development] bfara83:
Do you have a program like juice defender running?
[Captivate Android Development] SmithEC:
That's curious.

I'd be curious to know if this is just with 5.1. Did you have 3.0 or 4.0 or 5.0 installed and the GPS worked, but then you went to 5.1 and it's not so good? Just curious.

I don't really have the time to go back and look right now, but it seems to me that I have seen it suggested that you

do not

select Use Wireless Networks in an effort to improve GPS accuracy when using this ROM. I'm almost positive that the creator of the ROM himself said this very thing. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

Have you tried it both ways?

[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
My GPS has been flaky no matter what I do but I blame it on being an early model (1007) and just plain crappy hardware. Paragon has given it the best so far but I still wouldn't want to rely on it to drive in a area where I needed to be in heads up mode as it is usually behind my true location.

[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
Here's a fix I posted a while ago on another thread. Give it a shot, it worked perfectly for a lot of people. Be sure to backup your current ROM. Read the instructions (below) and flash the fix using CWM. Also, if you haven't already done so, remove the cover from your Cappy. You wil see 2 small white squares on the inside of the cover. Using a small screwdriver, gently scratch of the "white paint" (NOT the silver metal beneath the white paint). This dramatically improved my GPS to the point where I get a lock on 9 sats while in the house.

[Captivate Android Development] SmithEC:
I'll say only one more thing about it.

My question wasn't how you did the install of 5.1. My question was whether or not you at one time had either 3.0 or 4.0 or 5.0 installed and you had really good GPS results, but now with 5.1 your results are not so good.

It doesn't really matter. Just curious, that's all.

If you apply the fix outlined by Chuckd610, you may as well go ahead and apply that "Silver Speaker" mod I read about last week. While you have your paint scraper out, that is. That's actually a funny thread, if you haven't read it.

[Captivate Android Development] RaneMan:
Before you go scraping crap off of your phone...did you happen to run a TiBU restore or restore any kind of backup?

The reason I ask is because the developer inserted a GPS.conf file into the rom that makes huge improvements to the gps functionality and if that was removed or replaced your gps will work about as well as your dog driving your car while you take a nap in the back seat.

I just flashed this ROM on my wife's phone and she's got a build 1007 phone. The GPS works as good as I've seen.

Locking is quick even when moving. Maps, Tracking, and Navigator are spot on. No overshoots on turning corners.

I flashed her phone without going back to stock via wiping cache, batt stats, dalvik-cache and factory reset via CWM and then flashed the ROM.

TiBu restored apps+data (not system data) and it's working pretty well.
