Has anyone tried this Rom with the Firebird 2 Kernel? I do like the current kernel but I'm looking to try out the color and sharpness fix. I'm sure right after i flash the kernel there is going to be another update to this kernel, cause that's just how things work around here lol.

So if anyone has tried it let me know how your experience was.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] fail999:
Well Duh, found my problem. For ROM Manger to work right the new ROM needs to be in the internal SD Card not the External. Works GREAT.
[Captivate Android Development] theMaDHakkeR:
Just wondering if you can also include the app widget picker in the next release. I've installed it myself but it would be nice to have it included also.

Thanks.

graphics and performance...

i'm finding the whole package very impressive so far. the UI has been totally finessed. a nice touch is the tv-screen-off graphic when powering down. battery and connectivity graphics are clearer with the larger circle icons and text. GPS seems to lock faster, and i've been testing various modems a lot the last few days. Quad comes in ~1400 and LinPack ~14. launching the camera takes up to 2sec, which seems a tad quicker. also, the 'synchronize' option under wireless works, where its failed in other roms. i don't use this feature, and suspect no one does, but that time was taken to get it working, instills further confidence in this rom.

Battery Use

This is one of the best ROMs available. blazing fast and BT dialing plus music streaming to my car work well.

About GPS, I think it is working well but still contains some inaccuracy, especially when you turn on a new road.

I am concerned still about the battery which is lasting me 12 hours with moderate use of the internet. great job overall, just please attend to the battery issue.
[Captivate Android Development] fail999:
RC2 is GREAT

Got RC2 up and running on my Cativate and I'm impressed. It's fast and I can see the differance in battery usage. Love it.

Thanks to the developer.
[Captivate Android Development] civ122:
Best ROM I have tried

THis ROM rocks...The battery and GPS are FLAWLESS...OC'd and UV'd to the hilt and my phone is cooking with no issues

Love this ROM...I will be looking for some updates and themes!!

Thanks to the developer!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] aprakhar:
Few issues:

Hi All,

First of all this ROM is great. Speed and performance both working good. Now to the 2 issues:

1. Battery seems to be draining faster. Before (with stock) i could go all day using about 15-20% of battery, but with this rom i was down to less that 50% in 8 hours! So something is going on. I haven't tried OC/UV yet.

2. I tried setting up MobileAP (using the captivate as access point for other wireless devices). After the setup other devices can *see* the access point but can't connect to it. I tried both with no security as well as WPA2 option, but no luck. Any ideas ?

- Prakhar

P.S. I just setup my company's exchange account on this, works great.

No FB syncing issues here. Working like a charm
[Captivate Android Development] JPxM0Dz:
For anyone looking for high quadrant numbers. I scored well over 2600 with this rom and kernal config.

Ran OC/UV @ 1280 -50 -50 -75 -75 -100 -125 and fastest lagfix EXT4
[Captivate Android Development] IamSonoma:
Nice job. I might keep it on a few days :)

GPS is awesome. Locks are fast. Still has tracking issues at time.

GPS Test gets me right at SNR 42-43 on anywhere between 2-5 bars. If I remove my back cover this jumps up to 45-47.

I did have to change the kernel. The supplied kernel would connect to my Jabra Cruiser but would not do any of the usual stuff like voice, stream music, make calls with the 2 button press, etc. I bumped up to speedmod O and all is still good.
[Captivate Android Development] ooo.stephen:
animated gif...

they auto play in my browser (dolphin HD), where as they never did with other roms, regardless of browser. if i remember right, this is a kernel issue, and speedMod or xCal i9000 also have this problem.

[Captivate Android Development] bgf183:
scrolling issue

Hey. So I'm really liking this ROM so far, especially with the live wallpapers working and the voodoo audio. Only thing I'm noticing is that the scrolling within menus is a little jittery. Almost like instead of a smooth scroll, it moves in micro-steps. Anyone else notice this? Any thoughts on how to fix it? Other than that, I can't find anything I don't like.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Is it just me or does anyone else have issues with the bottom buttons not responding correctly while the phone's plugged in?
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:

camera update...

i haven't seen an option to update the camera before, but its listed under tools, in the camera app. i gave it a try, and it FC'd with 'com.sec.android.app.camera unexpectedly quit'. so far, that's the only bug i've found. camera and other apps work well, play back properly, etc...

Why did I think that 6.0 was going to be posted as an update to 5.1? I thought we would have to have 5.1 on our phones in order to get to 6.0? I must have missed something.

I'll use the thread search function to find what I missed while the "use the search functions" Nazis are compiling their rebukes to this post.

In the meantime, if some kind soul could provide some clarification, that would work, too.

Keep in mind I have 3 different versions of the rom to release. Full rom, update rom and the red/black theme update. I also have 5 kernel versions. I make sure and final test every one of them before posting. Then I have to update the changelog, OP, and kernel posts. So there is a lot of work just in releasing this thing. It doesn't help that my upload speed is terrible. In other words, don't expect everything to be posted in just a few minutes. ;)

About the captivate GPS

ok we all know that the captivate GPS is VERY VERY bad, I used to have a HTC TYTN and it had a real good GPS, however besides the real fix as some people have mentioned ( soldering the antena )

I have done tests with some modems, today I was somewhat impressed so I'm going to share

Normally I keep a few modems on my phone so I just go to recovery and switch, today my brother in law, came to my house with an xperia X10 mini, so I told him we should do a side by side comparison so we started.

in like 3 seconds he had fixed 6-7 birds, and his accuracy was 6 feet I was with KP1 modem, I did not lock one bird, and I saw 1.

So I rebooted the phone, to install this odd modem I have been trying I9000XXJPM ( on the modems thread ) update.xxjpm.modem.zip

anyhow I installed that and rebooted as soon as I opened gps test I got the exact same amount of satellites my brother in law got, some with a stronger signal than him, and in about 2-3 seconds.

the only MAIN difference is that his accuracy was 6feet, and mine was 30feet, most important my GPS jumped all over, his was on the same point.

The test lasted for about 2-3 minutes while standing still outisde, during a very cloudy day, our max satellite count was 11 each.

And Paragon 5.1

Thanks !

So besides installing the 5.1 => 6 update, I need to pick and install a kernel too, correct? If I only install the update, does the kernel I've been running under 5.1 remain in place?

When I recorded the voicemail message, my phone was on speaker. I'm not sure if that made a difference or not. When I played back the recording, it was probably at about (just a guess) half the volume of the phone call. Since it was voicemail, I didn't speak at all so I can't attest to how I sounded compared to the caller.

Yeah, what slyguy2000 said. It's actually really cool IMO, but not every app seems to work well with it. Spare Parts, for instance, doesn't resize properly. I felt that 200 was the right level for me, but then decided to go back to default (240) after realizing that not every app would work well with it.
[Captivate Android Development] SmithEC:
It is smooth like buttah.

I've always had to "bounce" the applications to get it to scroll. Not with 6.0.

Really, really smooth.

I thought surely the red would be a red that I can not see. Took a chance and glad I did. That red is really, really nice.

This pic is "About phone" all on one screen. One of the things I was hoping for. Purchased that app already. This pic doesn't do the look justice. Remember, this is just a cheap, low res jpeg.

This theme looks really good.

This at 182, a resolution I saw shaolin95 say he uses over in a thread about multi-colored dialers someone makes. When I saw that post over there, I became frightened, actually, that someone for some strange reason would put that dialer into RC 6. Very strange, I know, but the Contacts button in that guy's dialler is so dorked up I can't stand it.

Key tones do work and the dialler does handle the dpi change.

Looks good so far.
