Flashed from RC4 to RC6 tonight. Installed the red theme from eSPyel, and launcher pro. Redownloaded my apps. Started trying to customize the look (homescreen mainly, with widgets etc)

Anyway, I bought and installed a power control widget, and it has a shortcut to 2g/3g switching. Problem is, I don't see where the 2g/3g option is.... Can I flash something that will ONLY give me this feature instead of having to start all over?

Quick question about Voltage Control...I noticed the "States" menu that you pull up from the bottom is missing. I deleted the app and installed a copy I've used previously with SuckerPunch and had success with, and still no States menu. I flashed a different Paragon kernel and still no States menu. Has anyone had this problem? Any suggestions??
[Captivate Android Development] Captivate2010:
I post about 3 times with questions and have received no response.

Thanks for your help
[Captivate Android Development] coderunner:
That is because it is a older version of voltage control. Paragon kernel use the older version of voltage control which doesn't have the states menu
[Captivate Android Development] wonner:
I installed VC 3.0 Alpha that I've used before with SuckerPunch and it had the States menu. Is the kernel not compatible or something?

People may not have answers to your questions or it may be something that could be answered by using the search option or google. I try to answer any questions that I see, that I know the answer to. Being a douchebag when people don't answer your questions probably won't help you get answers in the future. Post the three questions and I will try to answer or if I don't know the answer maybe someone else will answer.

The people in this thread are the most helpful of all the threads I've seen.

Thank you so much! Once you do one, it gets a little addicting. Anyone wanting one for an orange theme (bentonhall), give this one a try.

It's great getting encouragement! It helps motivate to keep trying and improving (I know my first one could definately use more improving :) ).

If people like these, let me know and I could perhaps make more (or change them somewhat and/or make different colors).

..man, OCing can be a b*tch. Had 1.2 with ease.. Thought i'd go for the 1344.. been messing with it since i flashed that kernel and I cannot find a sweet spot. If i do succeed, I'll be sure to post my settings... although it wont matter a whole lot being "my" settings. ..anyway..
[Captivate Android Development] RaneMan:
There is a thread in captivate themes and apps that has themed swype keyboards and there is a black and red in there. I don't have a link but will give you some practice with the search function.

I get the same force close with the gb keyboard when changing language. May not have language support. Try finding another gb keyboard apk with language support....maybe Darky's ROM? You may need some other package for language support, I don't know enough about the gb keyboard or language support to tell you. Your best bet is to type the force close process into google and do some research.

Default system transitions/animations?

Edit: Never mind. I found it among some old downloads.

Running RC6 with the red theme. Love it but am looking for a way to return the window animations back to default. I thought an update zip was attached to one of the first posts, but I could be thinking of another rom.

Is it possible to change the fly-in animation back to the system default?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] cobeebs:
RC6 Rocks. Period. Best ROM IMHO. Speed, battery life, GPS, theme. If you are reading this thread and wondering if you should flash it.

[Captivate Android Development] gandalf21502:
....LOVING RC6! Thanks for all the work, just love using my phone now!....

I also have been playing around with different kernels, best I can get is 1300 with settings at -50 for 1300 -100 for the rest. Somewhat stable thus far. I think though I will stick with 1200. I dont really see any real difference via benchmarks and just using the phone. 1200 is stable and safe!

Theme wise...LOVE the blue/black!

Any idea what the source 2.2 will do for this rom? I will NOT go 'back' to 2.2 stock EVER!

how does one get the density to work on the diff app? when i set to 200 alot of the spps dont fill the screen
[Captivate Android Development] GTIVRon:
Hey eSPyel. I like the ROM and the red theme. But I have a small list of improvements perhaps. The gray background behind notifications when you pull down the bar.. Well, it just looks so wrong. Can you get rid of the background and make the text white or red?

Also, from the android lock screen, the dot you drag to to unlock is green, and when you unlock the bar turns green... Can you make those red too?

Lastly, I will love you if you make the extended shutdown menu black with white text, and make the check box selections stay black instead of go white when you remove the checkmark.

If you could get some of these fixed, I would feel so guilty for not giving a generous donation.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
I am using LCD Density from the market which has a compatibility option. I click on it to select it then I uncheck it and reboot.

Pretty much all my apps are compatible after that.

MMS Error Popup when network not available

Loving RC6. It is so solid.

However, anyone had a nasty popup that won't go away when you try to send a mms and the network might not be available. The popup comes up and continues to flash at the bottom of the screen even though the mms actually goes through. Had to reboot the phone for it to stop. Weird. Seems the only problem I've seen on this ROM.

Noob says thanks & has hands free question

I got tired of waiting for the official Froyo upgrade from AT&T two weeks ago, and took the plunge. After a lot of research I picked Paragon 5.1 after reading the general captivate thread with the videos about upgrading. EVERYTHING I needed to know about upgrading was either on the "How to install a custom ROM" sticky or this forum.

==== ===== ======

Thanks eSPyeL! Donated!

==== ===== ======

Also, thank you to the members of this forum. The one issue that I had (restoring apps, data + system data) was answered in about 30 seconds and after a quick re-install (without the old system data) I was all fixed (simple operator error). Fantastic team here. :D

Updated to 6.0 and I LOVE IT. I would not changed anything. Installed the Red theme and it goes perfectly with my wallpaper.

QUESTION/ISSUE:

============

Bluetooth/voice commands work better than stock AT&T, but still not as good as a blackberry. I'm using the voice dialer and Vlingo but neither are really as full featured and easy to use (as in HANDS FREE) as a blackberry. Any suggestions here? Specifically I would like to give voice commands by simply pushing my earphone button. Blackberry works perfectly every time. So far, this is the biggest hassle with Android; but I may be missing a better app out there.

Helping a friend update from stock to AT&T 2.2 in a few days, so I'll be interested to compare our ROM with the AT&T version. :eek:

Again, thanks to all who make Paragon such a great experience.

MMS Error Popup when network not available

I'll have to try it again to see if I can duplicate it. I sent two mms with camera shots back to back in a metal factory building (had some signal but it was flakey). Then I emerged it connected "H" and it sent both the mms's. But the popup was very pervasive and would not go away. It was actually flashing on a .5 sec interval or so and VERY annoying.

don't think wifi is sleeping

I have the Wifi wake policy to sleep when the screen is turned off. Not sure if it is not my understanding of how it works, but in RC5.1 when enabled, if my screen turned off, when I would go to get back into my phone, it took about 15 seconds for wifi to come back. In RC6, the wifi is always on and ready as soon as my screen turns on. SpareParts says Wifi On 100%, Wifi Runninig 50.2%. If I look at Running (Time Spent without sleeping) that's at 6% or 3 m 55 s total.

It has been 6.5 hours since removed from charger. I am at 83% left on battery. Only used to view 2 incoming texts with 1 response and read 2 GMail messages.

Anyone else seeing this? Only thing I have changed, I used the red theme and I added the Xtreme Dialer. but this issue was happening before I put the dialer on.

I suppose you could move it from where your screen capture app keeps it over to your gallery. When you hit Reply, you get an insert option. One of the places you get to insert from is Gallery. This using XDA app.

It just now occurs to me that maybe you are not posting from your Captivate. From a PC it is very much different and I can't explain that process thru this Captivate keyboard.

What you are trying to do is actually easier done if you post from your phone.

(Edit: It's possible that your screen capture app throws the image into your gallery already. If that's the case, that should be really easily posted from your phone. )

Yeah its not very reproducible because its very random and not immediate.

Would like to offer my impressions of RC6.0 though now a few days into the update. Love the speed of the ROM and love the look of the blue theme. I must be blessed with a crap hardware phone though because my GPS is rather terrible, Paragon does well when driving and when outside but I can't get any sat locks inside a building. Also with UV my settings are 0,25,50,50,75. Any more than that and I get freezes and random shutdowns/charge death. It got me this morning, was late to work because phone randomly shut off and alarm didn't go off. Guess that's what I get for playing with my UV settings before bed.

Espyel your rom/kernel helps make my crap hardware functional, donation soon. Sorry for the long post.

I've used it a few times at our house after we moved and had to wait on Time Warner to drag their happy beehinds out and hook us back upt to some high-speed internet..

I had to work from home that day and the hot-spot saved my day! No charge or complaints from AT&T, I have an unlimited data package so I don't think it would be an issue if you do too. I wouldn't go crazy all the time with it, after all it is only 3G compared to regular cable. Hope this helps. :)

Dear eSpyeL, first of I am going to say that I absolutely love this ROM has been perfect for me and am on the verge of converting my husband to join the "dark side" and show him what his phone's true unleashed potential can be... I hate using his phone, everything take sooooooooooooooo long to load or just open. It drives me insane... Anyways, wanted to say THANK YOU! :) I've tried other ROMs but am stuck on yours it is near perfection if not perfection itself.

I do have a question though, is there another link for the blue theme? The link does not work for me, keeps ending up on a blank page? Anyone else have the same prob?

Phone Dialer Bugs

First of all this is a fantastic ROM!!! Thanks to Chef for awesome work. Just wanted to point out two phone dialer bugs. I was using speaker phone so that i could use the dial pad to press call menu options. I needed to go to my contact list to find a number that needed to be input and then went back to the dialer. Atfter going back to the dialer, the menu system could no longer hear my dial pad responses. Then, I needed to stop the call but there was no stop button on the dial pad. I had to pull down the notification bar to stop the call.

Can anyone verify these two bugs please? TIA :)

Edit: The problem is once you leave call status to go to the dialer you cant go back to call status to end the call and forced to use the status bar to end the call.

The issue of the dialer pad responses is something else...

Don't know why I haven't used paragon since its inception. Simply beautiful and really fast. Was giving cog4 and torch a try but I think samsung is a little too late. There froyo lags way too much.

Go into the Shoot Me preferences menu and change Type to .jpeg and see what that does for you.

There doesn't seem to be a time limit as concerns editing your own posts here at XDA. Having said that, a good way of practicing such things as image posting is to find a really old post of yours and use the Edit function to put images in or take them out or whatever else. No one will ever see what you are doing.

OK, quick questions on the boot animations. I see some of them have part0 & part1 folders, others do not. There also seems to be no real naming convention or file format.

1. Is there a max # of images that can be in the folder (ie is that why some have part folders?)

2. Is there a speed benefit to going with 1 format over the other (jpg/png)?

3. Can you MIX formats within the zip?
