I would be full time if I could get hardware/android id issues resolved. Its hard to say for certain though. CM7 is great but the camera made me flash back to RC6 alone. This rom does it all for me. I want something from eSPyeL under the ginger tree.

Damn. Spelling sucks when driving. Thx for the link. Worked great and a very noticeable market speed increase.

Would this ROM flash with no problems on a Galaxy S I9000 (UK)?
[Captivate Android Development] GTIVRon:
Did you make a backup of the files being replaced by chance? I think the fugu mod fugured my GPS. I drove around (about 18 miles more than would have been needed) trying to find my way after not being able to make an exit on the highway last night, because GPS NEVER locked and NEVER got a signal. It worked perfectly fine on Monday though...

I also noticed when when I search on the map and then hit the navigation button, the GPS symbol comes on for a split second then goes away as soon as navigator launches, and when you close or exit navigator the GPS thing comes on agian and then turns off again.

I think this mod needs to be renamed "fugurup your GPS and download from market faster mod."

After flashing this my GPS is more worthless than it was on my defective phone I originally had while it was running Eclair, at least it sometimes got a lock...
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
hmmm... didn't check GPS after the flash. I do have a short trip between sites today I can test on though. I'll let you know how it goes.

Also, I have been using Telenav instead of Goog's nav. It's been far better for me. You get the free version that's available?

*EDIT*

Did not backup anything
[Captivate Android Development] GTIVRon:
The thing is even on google maps, usually when u turn on GPS it enables it and you see the GPS icon in notification bar as it's getting a signal. That icon doens't even come on anymore. It just turns on for a split second right when i open, or right when I close anything that uses GPS.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Just did a very quick test and GPS is working for me. Icon pops up and gps locks. I read somewhere that the fugu does well for some but has negative results for others. All I can say is that I was able to lock and travel 12 miles using Telenav without losing lock. Granted it was only 4 turns, but it did still work like it should.

Maybe wipe the dalvik, system, data and cache and see how it goes? If not... hate to say it, but a reflash? My gps on this phone has never been outright horrible though. My tester is a different story. It blows with the might of a thousand steamships...

Gps is fine for me. Seems like an isolated issue.

[Captivate Android Development] chuby007:
my 0.02$ my GPS did not change at all with the fugu thingie... same ol GPS
[Captivate Android Development] GTIVRon:
So did anybody on paragon rom make a backup of the files that fugu replaces?

What do I lose when I do the wipe? If it tosses all my data anyway I guess I might as well reflash my backup from a few weeks ago. Dammit I'm going to start doing a full backup every other day I think. I'm on level 191 in bubble buster and don't want to lose that lol.. At least Garden of Weeden uploads game data to a remote server..

And yea, did a search for GPS fix and found some posts in other rom threads, and in those ROM threads saw quite a few posts about Paragon Kernel, and how it's faster and has better batterly life than the rest. I'm really happy I flashed Paragon RC4 as my first ROM, RC6 is the 2nd ROM i ever flashed. lol. and eSPyels Gingerbread RC# will be the 3rd ROM I flash, hopefully.
[Captivate Android Development] tmng95014:
The 2 files that fugu tweaks replaced are app_process and system_server. You can extract these files from Paragon ful ROM zip image and place them in

system/bin

.

You can put the Paragon files into this zip and flash them using CWM, http://www.hotfilesearch.com/download/60173931-UNDO.fugutweaks-cwm.0.1.zip.html. This will undo the fugutweaks.

[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
He posted maybe a week ago about taking a break and personal life stuff but that he does plan on continuing the development of Paragon when he's ready.

Wiping Data will delete everything in your data directory. As for your GPS I don't see why fugu would have any affect on it as I don't think the files fugu replaces are used by the GPS. However you could attempt to flash the Plumb Bob GPS tweak or I know someone has posted in this thread the original Paragon RC6 GPS files in a CWM Flashable zip.

What happens if you OC to 1200 but don't do any undervoltage stuff. Is it a battery drain thing, or is it a fry your phone thing?

Bill
[Captivate Android Development] jayjr1105:
You will be pretty stable but your battery life will take a small hit without undervolting. In real world overclocking your actually supposed to overvolt to compensate for the higher frequency but too many people would fry their phone if ov was an option. I normally leave 1200 and 1000 with little or no uv at all. You also have to watch uv the low frequencies as well to avoid sleep death.

Flashed the original paragon files (finally got it all figured out) late last night, GPS worked fine this morning. Guess it's just my phone....

I'll also give that telenav a try, thanks for that link.

Also, what exaclty does wiping devlic and cache (can't now remember all the stuff) do. Wiping data seems obvious, but is that system data or app/game data?

Thanks for the headsup!
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
I doubt the voltages we are using are high enough to fry any phone even without UV. You should see my phone running Trident. I am waiting for that one to offer UV cause those are some heavy voltages...even the screen felt warm! :eek:

Paragon RC 6 email issues on captivate

I had RC 4 and it was fast. I now have RC 6 and my email is dog slow again just like on the original Captivate software. Almost everyday I get a "Force Close" on Launcher Pro, after I close it everything is ok.

Just wondering if there is anything I'm missing. I don't think one click lag fix works on paragon rc6
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
If you did 1 click lag fix, that's the problem most likely. The ROM does its own lagfix. Time to reflash from ground zero. The only thing slow about this ROM is the first boot.
[Captivate Android Development] GTIVRon:
QFT.

I use launcher pro plus, never had it force close.... Gmail app is all i use and it's fast. I also flashed RC4 (my first ROM ever) and then RC6 (2nd, and last ROM ive flashed) and RC6 is every bit as stable, but much smoother and with more features than RC4.

Make sure you are doing the ODIN to stock and doing a master clear before flashing the ROM.

Camera Geotag settings with Paragon RC6

Does anyone else have the GPS icon appearing when using the camera in RC6?

I've been unable to find any settings related to geotagging in either the camera or phone settings. If I am not alone, is there a way to turn off or disable this without resorting to manually turning GPS and location sources off before using the camera?

I updated from 5.0 to 5.1 to RC6 as they came out and didn't want to resort to clearing and reflashing the full RC6 just yet. . .

[Captivate Android Development] bunnsguy:

[Captivate Android Development] bjballar41:
no nothing at all was fixen to plug it in to charge then had to do something real quick and then came back and it was like that. so its safe to pull the battery and it saying dont turn off target
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Yeah.. but that's odd it jumped into download mode on its own like that ..
[Captivate Android Development] bjballar41:
i know its crazy idk what happened i did kinda toss it on the bed but i dont think that would of caused it. also ive noticed on this rom sometimes the speaker stops working then i can push on it and it be ok but on the two other roms ive messed with it didnt do it do yall think this is part of the rom or something with my phone cause its only been with this one.
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Might have been just a bad flash. I don't think anyone has had speaker problems.. This is one of the most solid 2.2.1 ROMs there is. You could try and reflash..do your wipes and such.

well what would it be trying to say as ive ran this rom twice now and have been on it for 2 weeks this second time with no problems besides that speaker problem
[Captivate Android Development] GTIVRon:
I'm willing to bet that speaker problem is hardware...

Theres no way software will cut the sound, then react when you push on the speaker and turn it back on. It sounds more like a connection issue with the speaker itself. And being intermittent it just didn't happen during the time you had the other roms flashed. Coincidence.

Also I think jboneiii was just making a joke referencing your phone going into download mode (like it wants to be flashed)

very solid rom & kernel

:rolleyes:just flashed other rom & onix kernel to satisfy the crave and the hype at development thread and now back to paragon, this is stablest and fastest kernel and rom I've flashed even at higher clock setting. Nothing can beat hands down....keeps coming back to good ol paragon:D:D
[Captivate Android Development] tmng95014:
I am seeing people continue to play with new ROMs and then comeback. What are people looking for? Personally I am quite happy with Paragon RC6 and have little desire to waste time on something new which may not be as stable. For me everything I desire in a phone working including call recording. I was able to stretch battery out for 5 days which is a full work week. GPS works perfectly including Telenav.

I would like to see wishlist for those who want new version of Paragon. How does one improve on perfection or near perfection?

I think people are just trying to feed the addiction of flashing. I know thats why i started straying away from Paragon. As much as I love Paragon, the urge to flash my phone is still there. I'm quite happy with my set up, but i still find myself scouring the forums looking for something that i can flash.:p
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
I've been running the Apex 5.1 ROM for a few days now and I have to be honest, if there is a ROM to give Paragon a run for its money, this one would have to be it. Very smooth and snappy with great GPS and some great extras. Not abandoning Paragon by no means, but until the next release, I'll rock Apex 5.1 at least to do more hands-on comparisons.....also to feed my flashing addiction...lol

I loved this ROM and didn't change for a long time...then my jig came and I decided to go back to stock since now I could recover from a soft brick. And I thought that maybe just maybe it could even be better after flashing the "right" way. I had never flashed back to stock before this and had flashed probably 10 or 15 times to various ROMS never having any problems.

Flashed back to stock then reflashed paragon. Phone ran like crap after that. battery died quickly, the phone lagged. So, wiped caches reflashed paragon wtih the same crap results. Worst mistake I ever made was the flash back to stock.

I then flashed directly to SUPERNOVA with paragon kernel and its all good as gold again...must have had a bad flash twice in a row I guess.

I loaded Serendipity 6.2 yesterday to try it out and for me it is a better rom. Running the Onix 2.0.2 kernel, same as I had on Paragon but Paragon caused serious issues with my workout app, don't have that problem at all on Serendipity. Might come back to Paragon if a GB version is released. Or I might get bored and try another rom altogether.

[Captivate Android Development] SmithEC:
I think you ask a couple of really good questions within one post.

No doubt some folks just like the challenge of installing something new and making it work.

I don't know what I was looking for when I installed that FUGU tweak. My final analysis was that it didn't really do anything for me. In the week after install, I had it happen twice that an app icon in Launcher Pro or whatever it's called was replaced with a Market icon. When I clicked on the new Market icon, it would lead to nowhere. I suppose it's possible that the problem was caused by another app on my phone, but I've decided to blame it on FUGU. I don't know anything about how to replace original files, so last night it was re-format and re-install night at my place. It's back to pure 6.0 with a vow to refrain from trying to improve that which is already perfect for me.

Wishlist? When I install 6.0 on my phone, the only two things other than re-installation of apps that I have to do is change the LCD density to 185 and change the Notifications ringtone to Transparent Piano. I wouldn't expect that someone would produce a ROM with a default density of 185, so I wouldn't bother putting that on a wishlist. I'm going to dream big and hope that whatever is produced has my choice of Notifications ringtone right out of the box.

Personally, I'm not in a hurry to see anything else produced. I'm quite happy with what I have.

[Captivate Android Development] SmithEC:
I'd sure be curious to know which app that is.

I've played a little with using SportsTracker Pro along with a Zephyr BT HxM. My only interest with the app at this time is heart rate monitoring and recording.

I use a BT mouse and keyboard with 6.0. Once paired, they remain forever paired and they reconnect as soon as I turn the mouse and keyboard on. Not so with the HxM. Once I essentially turn The HxM off, it remains paired but I cannot reconnect until disabling and re-enabling BlueTooth. My analysis, of course, is that the problem (if there is one) is not with 6.0, but with SportsTracker Pro.

I'm considering getting the Polar BT HxM and trying CardioTrainer. I haven't decided yet how much it's all worth to me.

I can't believe any of those programs will ever be perfect. It seems to me that there are observations associated with all the apps that Google's MyTracks will do a better job of recording a running track.

I record heart rate while on my Versaclimber and SportsTracker shows that I moved a mile or so. I moved nowhere. I think I've figured out how to make it not do that.

In any case, are you using either of those two apps? CardioTrainer or SportsTracker?

I use Jefit for my workouts. For some reason the timers and screen transitions didn't work at all on Paragon. It worked fine on Stock Froyo and is working perfectly again now that I'm on Serendipity.

I downloaded Jefit as well as the animations to try to reproduce your issues and so far I've not had any issues. What exactly did you do, what happened when you did it, and what were you expecting to happen? Typical bug fixing questions.

*edit* I also discovered what's eating my battery. Seems my phone can't decide if it wants to use HSPA or 3G so it's constantly switching back and fourth between them. When my phones sleeping (which I use Tasker to turn WiFi, 3G, and GPS off) I can go all day and have ~50% left when I plug it in at night. I'm pretty sure Dallas has good HSPA coverage so I shouldn't see this constant switch. Experienced it on the Paragon stock JK4 modem and I'm still experiencing it on the JL2 modem. Thinking about trying out the KP1 modem but thought I would ask for any other modems people have been using and having good HSPA experiences with.

Do you have timers set between each set in the exercises? The problem was when I would finish a set, say 150lbs @ 10 reps. Enter that into the exercise, then hit Save and Start Timer. The timer would count down, but when it came back to the exercise it would ask me if I wanted to continue or start at set 1. Then when I would finish the last set for an exercise, instead of moving the the next exercise it would stay on the same one.

The problem wasn't with the exercise animations, it was moving from rep to rep and exercise to exercise using the Save and Start Timer button.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Alright well I'll admit I don't know how this program is supposed to really work, but I do see something I think is a problem. I click on the Routine option -> Mon -> Barbell Bench Press click on Save & Start Timer (Stick with the default routine it has setup) and it gives me a 120 second rest timer then goes back to the screen it was at before I pressed the Save & Start Timer button. I'm guessing this isn't the way it's supposed to work.

*edit* I do notice that the rep number does increase each time and after the set amount of reps (in this case 3) it does move on to the next exercise.

I only turn on services when needed

. For example, Bluetooth is only on when I am in the car.

I turn off all widgets

. During the day, I used "

wifi time ou

t" to turn off wifi when screen is off.I

turn off application sync

and

only turn on when i need something from market for example

.

When I am at home and sleeping, I turn off wifi.

I also only use Edge most of the time for phone call and only turn on WCDMA for data when I needed and Wifi is not available.

So for my typical phone call usage, SMS and email, this results in very good battery usage.

For more heavy use, the phone would last 3 days. 5 days was the longest I can stretch the phone. Battery was down to 10% when I plugged in charger.

This ROM is perfect so far. I'm tinkling with the 1300 kernel just for the hell of it, but no wish list here. The only thing missing, I found it. Using SGS tools you can change the stock browser's UA string so it can be recognized as desktop. Thats the only reason I fiddled with Dolphin or the other browsers. No need for them now. Although I am playing with the Opera Mobile to see if it is any better now that it uses flash.

I'm probably the last to find this, but SGS tools also is good for trying new ROMs, kernels and modems among other things for those addicted to that stuff. Having it has made this the perfect ROM indeed.

just want to ask if anyone has tried the faster mount in the lagfix tweak in cwm compared to safe mount and how it affects performance and stability issues. tnx
[Captivate Android Development] SmithEC:
It happens every time. One or two days after observing a problem and noting it online, I find that my online statement was probably incorrect.

I think that what was really happening was that in some, if not all, cases the problem was caused when updating apps through the Market. Once the app is updated, I guess you have to sometimes replace the shortcut or icon on the LauncherPro screen.
