Run it and let me know but I recall not being even close to that. I threw out that example but of course benchies are mostly useless altough that one is not too bad compared to Quadrant (which btw the phone scores above 6000pts in the CPU test now...gotta love that benchmark! lol).

The only benchmark where it is not up to par seems to be Smarbench 2010 and also the 3D test in Quadrant is messed up scoring less than with 2.2.1 and also missing some textures.

Thankfully it only happens there..all my games play perfectly.

I never though Gingerbread could be that good so hopefully eSPyeL can come up with something with the little we got from Samsung so far....finger's crossed!
[Captivate Android Development] tmng95014:
It is better that you run it on the same phone because you OC higher than mine and your score on CM7.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
That is going to take some effort since I would have reflash RC6 just for that test. Maybe someone else has RC6 running at 1.4 to test.
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
Shaolin, it sounds like you've done a lot of testing and tinkering with CM7. Assuming RC6 is 100% user friendly/ready, in comparison, what percent would you give CM7?
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Thats hard to judge because this will be based on what I use my phone for. Also, I am mentioning Gingerbread more as a praise to how good it is and how much I hope to get a Paragon version of Gingerbread but I rather avoid bringing up CM7 more into the thread because I feel like is disrespectful to eSPyeL and this great ROM he has created for us.

Hope you understand.

Thanks :)

I can undestand that. I just needed another toy (ROM) to play with until the next rc????? release. One thing I'm glad to see is so many devs working thier butts off to put out some great stuff.

[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Wow ~62k is a big jump from ~40k And the only difference is one phone's running Paragon RC6 based off 2.2.1 While the other is running CM7 based off Gingerbread. eSPyeL hurry up with the Gingergon! or Paragon GRC1 ;o

*edit*

I've been messing with LCD Density Changer as well as the other, free LCD Density app and after I reboot the LCD Density gets reset (other then after the initial reboot to change it) How do I make it so it doesn't reset? I notice on the LCD Density Changer there's an option to make it the system setting but says that it could be dangerous. Do I use that option?

*edit 2*

Nvm I figured it out...

No need to flash back to stock if you are upgrading from a previous version of paragon.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
No need to disable lag fix either?
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Nope. 10char

[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
He mentioned Swype being updated as well as the issue people have been having with the dark font on the dark background in the notification area. And others just mentioned the 4 lock screens. Not sure what else...

So I just CWM flash this zip over my RC2 flash and that's it? No clearing of anything or anything like that?
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
It was posted a few pages back. I'll update the changelog in a minute. Right now I'm compiling a 1344mhz kernel...
[Captivate Android Development] jayjr1105:
Sorry that this is off topic guys but I am getting no help in other forums and it's a simple yes no answer. I bought a second cappy and unlocked it successfully to use on Tmobile for my wife. If I flash paragon on it will I lose the "unlock" status?
[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
No you will still retain your unlock status. the rom has nothing to do with it. I'm unlock b4 flashing paragon & with several roms & still retain unlock status.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
It was the "Save density as system density" setting option I had mentioned, but that's with LCD Density Changer which is the paid app. As for the LCD Density for Root I don't see a way.

Stable 1400 settings

gorgy76... I notice you are running RC6 at 1400. Care to share your VC settings? I'm currently running at 1300 and it's very stable. Would love to bump it to 1400 and keep the stability. Anyone else running a stable 1400, I'd like to see your VC settings too.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
I tried CM7 for a few days and Gingerbread is going to be awesome. But I came back to Paragon for stability and that everything works. And to honest the folks over on CM7 are just not as helpful and supportive as they are here.

Also for any one willing to try I had no problem doing an Odin one-click, master clear and right back on Paragon from CM7
[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
No problem....stable setting for me so far I don't know if this will work for you we may have the same phone but totally differ with some capabilities.

1400- 0

1000-25

800 -75

The rest is 100 uv
[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
Yeah camera & call quality(static at the other end known issues) hold me back to use it. So far paragon gave me no headache yet phone still performs fast and smooth.
[Captivate Android Development] 105437:
Thanks... I'll start with those and see how it works for me.
[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
After cappy got proper rest run browser mark again this time I got 42,426 still nowhere near your 60k mark:rolleyes::D anyway it still is bug free...
[Captivate Android Development] jayjr1105:
Man am I glad to hear that answer. Thanks for the response. Now do I need to flash a different modem so that the phone will work well with tmobile? (Once I put paragon on it)
[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
Yeah you're good to go. See what works best for you.
[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
If you found it unstable in 1400 kernel try flashing 1344 instead to make your cpu more likely to adjust that speed and run it for several days streaming internet movies, once your cappy is stable with 1344 speed you may bump it now to 1400. it is a way to get those molecules inside your cpu to adjust to fast speed.when I do mine start with 1200 and bump directly to 1344 my phone sometime freezes so back again to 1200 then 1300, 1344 finally 1400 with several days interval.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
That actually works? I might have to try that out sometime. I would LOVE to get my phone running stable at 1.4GHz. Fastest I've gotten it is 1.3GHz :( Currently at 1.2GHz because I just didn't feel like flashing the 1.3 kernel...
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
It some times work, some times it does not. Computers and overclocking some times fall into the realm of voodoo and myth lol

Take for example my PC. Oced to 4.2Ghz (i7 920). If I for some reason needed to flash the bios and enter all the settings the exact way they are right now, it may not even boot.

If I go slowly bumping it up, then it takes it perfectly stable with Prime95 runs etc to verify it.

All weird.

My phone never liked 1.4Ghz except for 2 kernels with 2.2.1 roms. Oddly enough it loves 1.4Ghs with the Trident CM7 kernel

Also, my phone was doing 1344 with Paragon as 1.4 was not quite 100% stable for me.

Now you see how gorgy76 is using 0 UV for 1.4Ghz?

My phone wont handle anything voltate above -50 so -25 or 0 means Neocore freeses for me.

That tells you how different this phones can be. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
True that. Just goes to show how much time you really need to put into getting stable OC/UV settings. My phone tends to stutter sometimes I'm guessing that's due to too low UV settings. Any thoughts on that?

*edit*

Guess I should note that I generally don't have any issues with my phone stuttering when running stock OC/UV.
[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
yeah. stock clock is already fast and if you bump it up or tweak those oc/uv settings improperly you may likely to encounter issues. But likely for those nerd :cool: who want to see high nonsense benchmarking scores:D:D:D in their cappy it might be worth a shot, just be careful. Have been running 1400 kernel in my cappy for several weeks now with good battery consumption. Maybe I'm just one of those few lucky enough to have a cappy unit that holds higher OC setting without much issues.:D
[Captivate Android Development] mjgspr95:
Running 1.2 OC/UV with fast mount and Adw Ex (may make slower). It does not seem worth it to increase OC

Disable Voodoo Lagfix first?

I'm running Serendipity 6.2 with Suckerpunch voodoo #9 kernal. Want to flash Paragon 1200 kernal. Do I have to disable voodoo lagfix first, or can I leave system as ext4?
[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
yeah, it depends on you. those benchmarking test has flactuating results. the most important there is to feel if your phone is fast or laggy. I may hit 1.8k or 1.9k in quadrant or even 1.6k the least. what really matter most is having a fast phone with great battery life never care of those benchmark. when I'm running 2.1 eclair and put on oclf I can hit 2.2k but still feel laggy.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I've not had any issues flashing the different kernels from ext4.
[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
you may for safety and reset your voltage and clock setting to default to prevent issues.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
He didn't mention any OC/UV so I didn't address it but gorgy is right you will need to reset your OC/UV (just go in with Root Explorer and delete the file Voltage Control creates) or you'll get FCs with Voltage Control.
[Captivate Android Development] rrieter:
I'm not OC or UV but I'll do it just to be safe. Thanks for the quick reply!
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
Has anyone tried the cwm flashable fugu tweaks on paragon?
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
Ok couldnt wait anymore so i flashed it myself. Im impatient. :) Anyway I flashed it with no ill effects. It replaces some system files with files from 2.3.3 to increase responsivness of phone. Lookin good so far. Here, have a look : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=981125

Update. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. You can feel the difference right down to texting! A "must-flash" :D
[Captivate Android Development] SmithEC:
I took your advice and flashed it only because I haven't flashed anything on this phone for some time.

I have found the phone to be responsive enough and quick enough with a stock RC6 on it. I don't use mine enough to give a really good comparison between RC6 and RC6 w/FUGU tweak.

Do you see the post in that thread where the poster claims that The Market loads quicker? He's right about that. Since I've had this handset, I have always hit the Market icon, let the loading circle spin for about 4 seconds, hit the back arrow, and then hit the Market icon again to get in. Not so now - it loads right away. Not that I need anything from The Market.

Flashed from recovery with no problems. It's funny how you read through a thread like the one you linked and you find that some people's luck just isn't worth a damn. There's always a problem.

I don't know that I have seen that many countries represented within one thread.

[Captivate Android Development] gorgy76:
just curious before I have to flash ...do you still retain your boot animations? I already have the file save in my pc since last week but hesitant for a go to flash. It has been posted in the thread that boot animations will not render and am thinking since paragon rom and kernel is not included in their compatible list.

edit: since i'm running default ext4 should be good to go..
[Captivate Android Development] jboneiii:
Thanks for this tip. My gmail app was very sluggish when loading old mail. Now it's almost instant. Other functions have similar better response times. This update was GREAT.

I wonder how long of a break eSPyeL plans on taking. Not that I'm trying to hurry him or anything -- family is more important -- I'm just anxious to see what he puts out next =D

*edit* On a different note I don't think my phone can handle anything above 1.3GHz. Every time I try my phone goes into Kernel Panic mode which then makes my phone run like crap... For a while at least though it seems to be running ok now (attempted 1344 early morning yesterday or sometime the day before)

Anybody here us a notification widget of some type? Basically I need a widget like TxMissed for my lockscreen (Widget locker) to show missed calls/texts/emails etc, but TxMissed doesn't seem to like working on this ROM. If anybody could test it for a few days that would narrow down my phone or ROM. But it doesn't refresh properly, and also the widget will just go invisible (when i click where it is i can resize that area, but it doesn't show anything, thats what I mean invisible). I also can't access the setup app using the app icon in the app drawer. It works right after setting up the widget, but after unlocking screen then trying to open it through app drawer, all it does is close the app drawer.

So yea, I really like the widget, but if it doesn't work with this ROM then I need to find another widget.
[Captivate Android Development] tmng95014:
I was quite happy with 1.2GHz. The key for me is stability and efficient battery, which I get with RC6. I did implement the Fugutweaks for improvement in internet access. For me the bar for RC6 is quite high. It would be hard target for any new ROM to beat to outdo RC6 as a regular driver.
[Captivate Android Development] gandalf21502:
So did you really see any noticable improvement with the Fugutweaks with paragon rc6? I read through the thread, seems that people are getting different results, some better, some the same, and some worse....all with different roms of course. Did not see anyone in there with paragon running them.
[Captivate Android Development] goodolsen:
I didn't notice any obvious differences after applying fugutweaks, but I didn't break anything either.

I am loving the Suckerpunch and Paragon combo, especially with the red themes.

Got the red market, dialer, swype and paragon themes installed.

Thanks eSPYel for this awesome rom.

Fugu tweaks only speeds up my market browsing other than that I can't hardly notice any difference in internet browsing speed maybe it adds but is barely noticiable.

I flashed the fugu fix thing on my phone.

I seems to do something with the way the phone requests information or something, but yea, market opens sooner, the visual aspects of websites loads quicker (like sometimes you see the download bar is done but page not showing in full yet, then all the components starts showing up), games load up quicker, and the animations seem snappier.
