That one is a bit harder I'm afraid, I have been following and there are a ton of issues with it right now.I will give it a shot, if it does not work, I will include this once it reaches a stable state.

EDIT: also, I am going to try and sleep now (4:43 am here), just for a bit. See you guys shortly.

[Captivate Android Development] darkovin:
Dunno if you have seen this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=916233), & I know you are using xcaliburinhand's kernal. Any chance of getting this to work through the ROM side with more than just the music? I listen to a LOT of audiobooks, which are hard to continue in most music players.

Either way, this is still the best ROM I have found, and thanks to all who contribute!

Any word on Super Nova? I thought it was going up a few days ago.
[Captivate Android Development] roger_n:
xtreme,

Did you get a chance to look the issue of when you end a call the 2 icons "Call" and "Message" don't work properly "Call" goes to "Contacts" and Message" goes to redial? If not Adam has it working in SuperNova you may want to look at that ROM for a possible fix other than that this drop is awesome (not to crazy about the default wallpaper). Have you updated ROM on the link you provided me or is it the same one I download last night?

Roger :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
Ok After a few hours with 2.1 beta3 I can say no issues whatsoever! Market, gmail, etc all apps working flawlessly. TiBu, no problems with restore. I really like the framework changes, menu, settings, etc layout very tasteful and professional. New default wallpaper is sweet. Pull down menu, very nicely done. So far, I gotta say, xtreme, you are more than worthy to carry on the FF torch....:)
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I just posted the wallpapers that I did in the themes and apps section - HERE

Let me know which one should be default.

I had not noticed the dialer issue, I will see if it is as easy as droping the phone.apk in system/apps. If not, it will have to wait till next release.

EDIT: The dialer issue is now fixed and works as it should. Thanks to roger_n for pointing that out.
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
Agreed!

Edit: My vote goes to the first wallpaper being default.
[Captivate Android Development] id10terror:
I vote for #1 or #5 (first or last one)

FF 2.1 Beta 3

Just finished flashing to FF 2.1 B3 setting up my wifi I noticed the drop down menu changed not a biggie but I think the menu in B2 looked nicer with a real clean look imo.

Edit: Question do you guys think the Google search widget would look better with the translucent black skin?

Roger :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
My results are just the opposite. Using the JK4 modem and set at the kbps measurement in Speed Test I see up to 3000+ kb down / 1050+ kb up speeds.

GPS locks average of 7+ indoors and 10+ outdoors real fast within 16.4 feet accuracy. BUT when firing up Navigation it seems to be off on accuracy and doesn't seem to settle into one location. Haven't done a road test yet, that'll be later today.
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
For Rogers customers: anyone getting the SMS time stamp problem? I noticed it was fixed when I upgraded to stock Rogers 2.2. The problem came back when I went to ff2.05. I think pheonix has it fixed too(?) Is the problem rom-related?

Sent from my SGH-i896
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
I would say #4, the plank floor look just strikes me the wrong way for some reason.
[Captivate Android Development] Mevos:
The mms.apk is causing the issue, you can use the apk comming from a rom that you know it works properly to fix it, but you are gonna lose the custom theme for the sms app.

Edit:

I would post it up but I'm at work and I can't right now.

I will try to make a fixed version that as the theme of this ROM tonight if I have some time. I will post it up if I have something that works.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
JK4 has been the best all around modem on every rom i have used (especially for gps and more specifically accurate tracking).

I tried JL2 multiple times after seeing people rave about it....and it yields horrible tracking/turn by turn nav for me.

1007 build
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
I like 4 or 5
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
Really? That's the issue? Thanks, I guess ill look forward to a fixed mms.apk. maybe this could be included in the next FF build? I read many posts about this bug turning people over to pheonix:-)

On a unrelated note, why are the times on events on the launcherpro calendar widget off by +4h? They appear fine on the stock calendar...

[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Adam,

Are changes to this going to be done as patches or full rom installs? I understand that at times a full install may be necessary but for minor fixes, will you just be uploading zips that make the appropriate changes?
[Captivate Android Development] mi04se1:
Its an option in the speedmod kernal.
[Captivate Android Development] mi04se1:
I just flashed the newest speedmod k112N on FF. Works great and you can change the launcher in sgs tools now.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Not to pick on you in particular. I feel the same way when I see it anywhere.

To me it just kinda makes it seem like the dev isn't too confident in what's been made. Maybe it's just me.

Limited internet speeds?

I noticed that my phone is locked to 3G speeds and below...

It can't access the higher HSPXX speeds....

Is there any particular reason?

I'm running the original 1.0 version and not the revised one...

[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
No. I am very confident with what I put out. I just know there are people that are new or may rush through the install and could potentially mess it up and I am just making it clear that it is not my responsibility to replace the device.i test my roms very thoroughly before releasing them.
[Captivate Android Development] jlsesler:
How is everyone 's battery life? I know it's difficult to compare, but try this.

Try browsing the xda app thru wifi for 30 mins and report your battery drain (min brightness).

Mine drained 8% in that time. Does that sound reasonable or high?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I am at 67%. But that is bc i didn't charge it last night.i have been on xda app for a good amount of time now. .
[Captivate Android Development] jlsesler:
Here is another battery drain test I did. I turned brightness on max, bluetooth on, gps compass on, wifi on, and didn't let the screen time out.

My battery lasted just over 3.5 hours from a full charge.

That seems low to me, but im not sure. Maybe my battery is getting worn out. Anyone else do a similar test?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Holy crap. I just loaded the latest speed mod kernel and just when I thought ff couldn't get any faster, wow!!!!! New default kernel for future releases if battery stays decent.
[Captivate Android Development] PersonOfKnownOrigin:
I'm loving it on Phoenix 3.5. Keeping up with this thread because I might want to switch but 3.5 is so so freekin good I don't dare change!
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
I've been running the N kernel too since release and couldn't be happier! Great battery life. It's gonna be hard to pull me away from phoenix....... ;)
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Ya, I did change the toggle switches. I think the ones in B2 were being used to much other ROMs and themes. I know that means that they are well liked, but I was growing tired of it. I want this ROM to look unique and I think it is.

The google search widget is themed with that translucent black skin. You have to add it to your launcher, its not the default one. Look for one with black and white icon.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
extreme....looks like your putting alot of work into this glad to see

just out of curiosity what happened to adam...did he hand FF off to focus on supernova?
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
I agree with you on the dropdown, it's refreshing to see something different. I like it, it's nice looking imo.
[Captivate Android Development] Mevos:
Here is a version that works for me in Quebec, with the theme from firefly 2.0.5 and the correct timestamp.

It seem to work properly for me, so you can give it a shot by dumping it in "/system/app/" using root explorer.

I took some time from my lunch time to do it. :p

Edit: I don't have the paid version for LauncherPro, so I can't really help you with that because I can't use the widgets....
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Ya, I am sort of taking over FireFly from now on. Adam asked if there were any takers for FireFly and I volunteered.

He is going to be busy with SuperNova and Phoenix.

Now, the question is do I start a new thread or just post the update here because I can't edit the OP for this thread. Hmm?
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
Good question...
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Have Adam Email me that this is the case and I will give you the first post. So you can keep the thread No offence Xtremekilla.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
None taken Zel, I think that would the ideal situation, this thread already has a lot of valuable contribution.

Now lets see if I can get adam to e-mail you about it. Could be difficult, seeing as he is on vacation and all.

BTW, thanks for the guidance Zel, I got the dialer looking awesome.
[Captivate Android Development] tbrummell:
Doooo soommmeeethhiiinnggggggg!!!!! It's killing me waiting for 2.1 to drop! LoL
[Captivate Android Development] timn2bama:
Will the in call volume be louder in the new version? I have hard time hearing ppl when the call sometimes.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Haha, I want the release to be near perfect. Also, I want to avoid confusion so, I am waiting till I get the first post in this thread.

Wait, a little longer, I can promise you, it'll be worth the wait.

This is more of a kernel issue, if hardcore updated it then yes.
[Captivate Android Development] rockosifraldi:
+1, any updates on this...
[Captivate Android Development] spaz2k7:
PM me with a link when ready, Ill provide a mirror like i do with Adam. I have dedicated http://yourrom.com to all of Adams releases and I'd may as well keep with Fire Fly as it is my daily ROM. :)
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
The volume is fine for me. So, you are gonna have to test it out, when the ROM drops.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I will contact you shortly.

Thanks

Is the Voodoo Control App necessary to take advantage of Voodoo sound fix? If so, would it be possible to make this one of the default apps?
[Captivate Android Development] jlsesler:
Maybe he should just link it here (assuming it's ready), and update the op once the thread is released to him.
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
Added it to my phone. all the timestamps are correct now! thanks! xtremekilla09, could you use this Mms.apk as the default? It fixes the SMS timestamp problem and is themed exactly the same.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I had forgotten about that, I will add that now.

Thank you
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Ya, I think I will end up doing that. I am not sure when Adam will see my PM about the thread.

Just hold on a little bit longer, I promise I will get it to you guys.

Thanks

Good job with 2.1, xtreme. Truly.
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:
Hey xtreme,

Awesome wallpapers! Also, the "things to do" in beta PM..are those gonna be update in later releases? Or is there going to be Final2?

And will the updated SGS tools be in the released verison?
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
I don't suppose there's a built-in add blocking host file in FF, is there?
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
There's ad blocking in all of Adam's roms and if not the included SGS Tools has the ability to apply that fix.
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
No prob man. Glad you got the dialer to work out. I have not really had the time to work much on it lately. just parts here and there. Still looking for the xml that controls the notification text. I will wait for Adams email and then give you the thread so you can edit what you need to.
[Captivate Android Development] NunHugger:
Heya Zel...what do you use to edit xml files.
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
I used APK manager to decompile the apks but am having trouble recompiling them so am switching to linux to try and recompile the apks. To be honest I have never used it before so I am at square one lol
[Captivate Android Development] scottmac019:
So do we have an ETA on FF 2.1?? I want to Odin and Clear to get ready, but don't want to do it too soon....Can't wait....I am on Phoenix 4.5 right now and like it...but I still like FF a little better....hopefully the battery will be as good as the 4.5 PR...I am going 2% an hour or so....it's lasting a long time and I love it!!!!

FireFly, FireFly, FireFly!!!! LOL...
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
The problem with recompiling is bad .9 images. What happens is the bad .9 files get duplicated, see here. I still sometimes get issues with the recompiled file, so if you are only looking at changing things like colors you can recompile then move the compiled xml to the original framework
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
So, basically extract the xml first > decompile them separately > edit them > recompile > place back into framework. Right?

Firefly 2.1 is uploading to the mirrors soon and then I will upload the updated website where you will be able to find it.

I have to step out for a few, be right back.
[Captivate Android Development] nickm50:
That makes me happy. I keep checking in every 5 minutes LOL
[Captivate Android Development] scottmac019:
AWESOME!!!! Gonna do the Odin now so I am ready to go!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Cruton502:
Will there be a flash free version from the current ff? I heard talk about it a while about it.
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
You can do that - there is a java script called AXML printer that lets you do the XML only. I haven't played with it much, so I can't say how good it is.

The other way is decompile the whole framework > Fix .9 images > modify xml files > recompile framework > extract compiled xml files
[Captivate Android Development] scottmac019:
Ok Back to stock with Odin....rooted and have clockwork installed.....waiting patiently....well kinda patiently.....HELL I WANT IT NOW!!!!!! LOL.......

Hopefully coming soon....can't wait to see how it came out....

Thanks Everyone responsible!!!
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Alright guys FireFly 2.1 is up and ready.

Click here to go to the FireFly site

I do apologize for making you guys wait so long.

This was a pretty big undertaking for me. It was a true learning experience.

In my eyes, this ROM is beautiful and works like a charm.

Let me start by thanking Adam for giving me this opportunity to update a ROM that already had a solid base. (hopefully I didn't weaken it)

There are lot of people I want to thank and I will name them properly once I have the first post.

Now, here is what I have done.

Changelog:

Complete overhaul of framework (took a lot of time, hope you guys like it) - It is a lot more finger friendly IMO

Latest Speedmod kernel

Updated all included apps

Fixed Music player (disc view used to FC)

Fixed Clock app's timer (there was no ring at the end of timer)

Fixed Phone.apk

Tweaked Google Search widget

New Default Wallpaper

New Bootanimation

New Shutdown Animation

New Dialer

New Battery icons

Added Voodoo Sound Control App v0.7.3

Added News and Weather widget

Added Google Voice

Added a Wallpaper Chooser with my latest wallpapers

Themed Swype

Also removed the USB Debugging Icon (it was bugging me)

Two versions - Clock and No Clock

Here is what I am going to be working on.

Things to do:

Add Samsung Apps (still not sure on this)

Include 5 lockscreen Mod (still not sure on this)

Backlight Fix

Browser Fix

Gingerbread keyboard FC's on language options

Try to fix Mobile Tracker

Other mms and sms related issues

Minor fixes to the framework

I know there are going to be a lot of people asking for a different battery icon.

Don't worry, I have covered my bases and created a CWM flashable zip with other battery icon. (I will also upload them, when I get first post) Till then, enjoy my hard work for a bit longer.

I was planning on doing update packages for 2.0.5 to 2.1, but I changed a lot of stuff. It is just better to flash this fresh.

I will also be attaching the mms.apk for people who have that issue. If everybody is having that issue then I will include it in the ROM.

So, now you can stop reading and go and flash this baby already.:D
[Captivate Android Development] nickm50:
Screenshots look awesome!

First boot takes forever!
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Downloading 2.1 as we speak.

Can I just flash this straight through CWM Recovery? Or do I have to revert to Stock Rogers ROM first then, back to 2.1?
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I have been flashing like a madman. In my experience, I have not had any issues flashing over other ROM's. I flashed over Cognition, without disabling lagfix, no issues here.

Although, I am not responsible for what you do with your device. (statement to cover my ass):p
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
I flashed without going to stock and have zero issues for what it is worth.

installed on my cappy over 205 just now. letting it boot up. nice boot animation :P its the one i actually used with 205. see how the rest goes. thanks guys!

EDIT: i do like the the more consistent UI look. very nice. still have the SMS time problem (have to use muvos' Mms.apk). MTM gingerbread keyboarfd still FCs on input languages though and still have the busy wheel icon distortion prob. its very nice otherwise.

Thanks for the advice.. will do a straight flash..

Edit: Do I have to re-enable tweaks, upon updating to 2.1 FF?

I know Ive already thanked you for your hard work xtreme..but again..Thank you and more thanks for letting me be a beta tester. This ROM is stunning. :D

If you see my post earlier, I mentioned that I will be working all of these things.

Let me know if any other major issues arise.

[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Just flashed it and I have a few concerns, but don't want to come off as "flaming" just certain opinions about the update.

[+]

-Love the new boot animation, flashed it in green when I was using 2.0.5

-Gallery is faster,

-Everything else seems a bit more snappier.

-Love the new battery icon, (possible to theme back to android icon battery? kinda grew on me & liked it)

-Thumbs up on new dialer

-Clock Icon isn't displayed anymore even when you have an alarm enabled (kinda like this, not sure yet)

-Lockscreen wallpaper enabled nice.. EDIT: Just tried it, and it still doesn't seem to be working.. hmm

[-]

-I really loved the blacked out gradient google search widget (green google "G" sign), but its gone now

-possible to bring back old notification icons? not a fan of the toggle "ON-OFF" switch (possible future theme?)

-dont really like the new themed aosp lockscreen, possible to get it back?

-no more "black" color market icon and in-app, :(

once again.. not hating, just voicing my concerns..

LOVE the update! battery life seems better and a well done update.
