Probably a setting in the many .xml files in the framework-res.apk /res/layout folder but have no idea which one. list_menu_item_layout.xml maybe? May have to ask eSPyeL, I'm no dev, just learning this stuff myself. To view those, you have to use a HEX editor or decompile with apktool or apkmanager and then you can view with notepad.
[Captivate Android Development] CapnPez:
Sorry, I had posted mine without any instructions. With any boot animation, you need to rename them to:

"bootanimation.zip" (without quotes) if they aren't already. Then it needs to be moved to \system\media (I usually use super manager--it will need r/w permission). There is a way to make it flashable through cwm, but I'm not savvy enough to do that...yet. Let me know if it still doesn't work.
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
rename it to bootanimation.zip and drop it in the /system/media folder.

EDIT: Sorry, I'm a slow reader evidently....
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Nope, won't work thru CWM. It's just eh apk in that zip file.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
OK, weird.. Haven't tried Facebook since RC6 but I did a TiBu restore and it keeps prompting me for my password. I know it's correct. It says authentication successful, then drops the login password prompt again. I thought I saw this in another thread that it was an issue somewhere, but not sure. Anyone else seeing this?

EDIT:

Getting a session key no longer valid error

I recreated my mobile account on the FB site from my PC but still getting the strange login prompt and session key
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
How ironic is this? My employer sends me to New Jersey to consult for about two months. I decide to drive around to get to know the area and to find a place to exercise. Low and behold, I come across the "Paragon Fitness Center" in Roselle, NJ. This ROM just became too spooky...lol

McLovin the GPS in this!!

Came from pheonix 4.5 to this. Finally a GPS that behaves like a gps should. Watching the signal levels and increase in found birds reminds me of watching every other gps I have ever used before Captivate. The jury is not all the way in but so far it holds steady on roads and around curves, holds lock on way more satelites and acquires them way faster. Finally someone found the secret. Please, those in the know, spread the word!! Captivate GPS appears to be fixed!! (at least in ParagonRC6.0).

Also, having a series 1012 phone I've never ever flashed back to stock with oden since I dont have a dongle to revive it if things go bad. I always just put the zip file on my internal SD and three button to CWR and install from the green menu. The only difference this time was that coming from pheonix to paragon CWR warned me about file system incompatibilites and asked if I wanted it fixed. Yes I did and now I'm up and running like a champ. Not sure why it did that as I thought I had pheonix on the lagfix file system and thought paragon would be expecting it also.

LOVE THE ROM!! thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
I've found when restoring certain apps through TiBu, something gets lost during the process. You may have to do a fresh install of that app.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Thats the weird part. I cleared the cache, stopped it then uninstalled it. Rebooted and installed straight from the market. Being anal, I rebooted before I logged in again, then the same damn thing again. I'm actually thinking of reflashing the entire ROM from stock to RC6 again because it was working before I flashed fresh today. I could see updates on the widget yesterday, I just didn't use it. total weirdness
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
OK. I see a lot goin on here about the boot animations and such. This is what i did and im satifsfied with the setup until something better comes up. I flashed the blue paragon theme from bentonhall/espyel but couldnt keep it because of the grayscale menus. I flashed over that with http://www.megaupload.com/?d=T4PNCRIS through clockwork and was able to KEEP the boot animation (blue android with the ring of blue fire) from the bentonhall/espyel colaboration.. the result is a nice looking blue notification bar AND the proper blue in all the menus...the only downside is the loss of the screen and transition animations from paragon :( but its a satisfying set up and i welcome enthusiasts of a sublte blue theme to try it out. I personally change the wall paper to the lighter gray magic smoke...it just seems to make the screen pop. To top it off after you do that throw in espyel's icon fix paragon-rc6-color-settings.zip through clockwork. Keep in mind you MUST flash bentonhall/espyel blue theme first to obtain the boot animation. After you flash over that with the theme above the animation will stay
[Captivate Android Development] sturgeon123456:
Thanks going to try it now! One more question for all you guys. The haptic feedback on all the buttons works, although it is quite weak. Is there any way to intensify it as doing so under the normal menu does not help.
[Captivate Android Development] The Gibbs:
Okay, I know this is n00bish but it has been forever since I flashed RC3...

How do I flash a theme?

:P
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Guys anyone having issues blocking the latest linpack ads?
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Did you try updating AdFree to see if that helped?

I'm TiBu'ing now and can't test. Trying to fix a damn FB issue (that I really should care less about... lol)
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Not yet. After I get RC3 out I'll start working on some kernel options.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
More than likely you restored your phone.apk from a titanium backup.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
i don't think the paragon's framework would work over UTO kitchen, have tried but failed. had to do it manually.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Thanks!

Are you adding the files to fix the demonic voices issue when streaming some websites for example, ESPN RADIO? :)

I add them myself but just mentioning it so the ROM is more complete.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
What goodies are coming with RC3? Looking good?
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
So do you need to set a UV value for each Mhz speed or just the one that you set the max clock to? Just don't understand how the app works.
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:
Can't wait for RC3, I'm very happy with this ROM after a full day of use.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I did when I installed RC1 but I reflashed back to stock and flashed a fresh RC2 and only restored user apps + system data. I'll try to replace the phone.apk though and see if that helps. I'll post an update in a few.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
This really made me laugh out loud. I have no idea what you are talking about lol.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
4 lockscreens, appwidgetpicker, updated swype, theme changes, battery charging animation fix, non scrolling extended power menu, working on the dark text on dark background while downloading apps from the market right now.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Thanks!

Thanks DrDubzz! I really appreciate it!

I'll have to take the wife out this weekend with these donations to get me out of the doghouse for spending so much time "playing with my phone" lol.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Great deal, cant wait.
[Captivate Android Development] leo5111:
my eyes are too tired to read all 34 pages is there any bugs to report? mms,camera, etc? and to flash this i just use odin to go back to stock do a master wipe root my phone and install this? thanks
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Ok just replaced the Phone.apk with the one in the RC2 zip and it still does it...
[Captivate Android Development] rootnik:
Loving the kernel, hoping development continues.
[Captivate Android Development] Clienterror:
Basically when you open the app all freqs are set at zero (stock voltages). Now you drag the slider bar for each freq to say -75 (except the 1280 I'd set that at -50 for starters). Then click apply settings for now, DO NOT CLICK SET ON BOOT YET. Now use the phone, bench it, play some graphic games (asphalt, most 3com games .ect) and see if it crashes. If it's good, go back into the program and click set at boot. It will use these values after reboot. Now that you have stable base values you can lower individual freq voltages until you crash then go to the next. The point of this is to minimize the power your CPU uses to work at whatever freq it's using and save battety across the board. Hope that helped some :-)

[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
i wish you have a nice weekend :)

i have flashed RC2 3 times today :p and i strongly recommed you guys to do a hardreset by dialing *2767*3855#, your storage will be wiped out. but it'll give you a clean ROM without any left overs or weird problems. the ROM will even convert back to rfs instead of EXT4, coz some people just dont want to have lagfix, also gives you the best result installing other kernels or themes.
[Captivate Android Development] theMaDHakkeR:
Restoring system data = big no no. Many have had to reflash because of this.
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:
no major bugs that I've experienced or read on here.

and yes, that should cover it as far as flashing goes
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:
no problem, tell her "there are hoards of grown men that depend on your to 'play with your phone,' here's some hush money" :D
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
The same way you flashed the ROM. Just find a compatible theme you like, put it on the root of your SDCard, and flash via CWR.

are you trying to say that there are people out there who will not look at all 3,390 posts in this thread for information? No way. lol j/k

Removed adfree and replaced the host file with the one from RC6. Rebooted and no more ads.

+1 I started with RC5 then RC5.1 update and then RC6 update. GPS has been superb. I tested this morning going to work and it is very accurate. Lost satellite lock 2 times but recovered quickly.
[Captivate Android Development] rocketcuse:
Looks like that did the trick. Wonder why it started to happen?
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
FB issue fixed

For some reason, Launcher Pro was the cupprit. Switched to the default launcher and was able to access just fine. Switched back to LP and widget is active and can access normally.

Just an FYI in case anyone else has that happen
[Captivate Android Development] alabamaroping:
Awesome

awesome awesome awesome

thank you so much.

best ROM.

Fast, efficient, well supported.

LOVE IT.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
It's been very usable for me too. I travel a lot to and from clients and I can rely on the phone for GPS. I haven't had the need for the other fixes and such which is nice. It's not perfect, but I believe its as good as it will get with the flailing samsung did.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
I had to do the same thing. I had restored AdFree from TiBu and saw Linpack ads. Swapped the host from the ROM and back to normal.. no more ads.

QUestion.. do the dev's get any sort of revenue from the ads in their ROMs? If so, I wouldn't mind giving a click here and there. Without them this phone would blow.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
No only the app maker gets any kind of revenue from the ads...

That's what I figured. I'll just donate when I can again. It's well worth it

I can say that I read every one of the 3,390 posts "Edit: 3400+ posts and counting "and learnt a lot and laughed alot and been extremely happy with the almost "instant" customer service response.

How is this as a daily driver for an un-informed person? I'm selling my phone to a friend who isn't tech savvy. I can't get OTA updates as is, and want to NOT return it to stock with all the crap that goes along with it but haven't tested this one out so much. How well does it work day in and day out with no guideance?

[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
Nice tutorial!

Have any wallpapers you think would look good in that resolution?
[Captivate Android Development] color0:
Probably too complex? I just flashed RC6, it's got a lot of low-level manual controls that, if you screw with 'em, could probably break the phone. If you're selling this to your friend you'll want to make sure he/she cannot access the dangerous settings, so you'd have to hide them somewhere, lol. Voltage Control, Superuser and TiBu... you could hide with another launcher, but hiding the power menu options would probably need a fix from eSPyeL.

Why not flash the official UCKB1 Froyo? It's out now, it's for non-savvy people, and it's much better than JF6/JH7 Eclair.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
I would either give him stock or a ROM that's close to stock. It wouldn't be difficult for him bone himself if he starts farting around with things.
[Captivate Android Development] tmng95014:
+1. This is what I did with my wife Captivate. I update her from 2.1 to 2.2 today. My phone is Paragon RC6. Going back to stock 2.2 would be a downgrade for me. I figure she should be OK with 2.2 because it is a big difference from 2.1. The bottom line is normal people just want to use the phone for what it is intended to be used so no tweaking is really needed.
[Captivate Android Development] chuby007:
guys can someone tell me what's the original 6.0 rom please thx !
[Captivate Android Development] scuba_d:
its the regular green theme version of 6. if you want red, you have to flash the original then flash the red theme after it
[Captivate Android Development] GTIVRon:
I agree, no doubt!

I was one of those peole who made like 5 posts while trying to flash. Paniced for no reason etc etc. LOL

I'l be flashing RC6 this weekend. These past few days i've been getting "comfy" with flashing. Flashing different themes mainly while trying to decide how I'm going to "finalize" my phone.

I plan on flashing this ROM. Then Generation X red theme. Then Launcher Pro Plus with custom red/white text dock buttons, and get a couple cool themed widgets to make a display screen that will make everybody I know say WTF is that? iPhone 258798G?? Then I'll lol.

lol.

sorry I meant what's the original MODEM on RC6... and I have to seek if someone extracted the original AT&T modem of 2.2 my phone suffers cause of lack of signal JPM worked on RC5.1 quite well but now it did not work I got KP1 and it has no signal 99% of the time, and that also EATS up my battery and well the upgrade only did not seem to come with a modem so I want to flash the original modem of RC6 to see if it works better.

Kernel Change

Hi

I have updated rc5.1 tp rc6 and all is well so far.

If I want to update the kernel to higher clock, is it as simple as downloading the 1344/1400 Mhz from the first page in this post and reboot recovery-install from zip? and then go to the voltage control app to change the settings if needed?

thanks

Chad

[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Just make sure to clear your old Voltage Control settings before flashing the new Kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I can' t get 1.4GHz to work for me :( However 50, 100, 100, 125, 125, 150 seems to work well for me with the 1344 Kernel.

*edit* If your phone locks up on shutdown then decrease the 100MHz UV.
[Captivate Android Development] OrlandoChad:
How to clear? did u mean reset

To reset- I ll go to the Voltage Control App- then in Scheduler I ll select "noop"and in Limit max clock to - 1000 MZ ..and under the 1000mz it wil remain current 0mv .

I would then flash the one with 1344 Mz and change the settings. Is that correct?

Also when people talk about mV they are referring to the -(minus) value in the voltage control app correct?

Also in scheduler what is noop vs anticipatory vs deadline vs cfq vs bfq- which is recommended?

Sorry about too many questions..

Thanks

Chad
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
You just need to open the Voltage Control app -> Menu -> Remove Boot Settings.
[Captivate Android Development] OrlandoChad:
Thank you for the quick reply. :) I did that.

also is my statement about minus correct? and where can I find out about schedulers in the voltage control app?
[Captivate Android Development] tmng95014:
I would recommend that you read shaolin95's tutorial on OC, http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10936691&postcount=1102

Personally, I found that the default 1.2GHz is fine for me. The benefit to go to 1.3 or 1.4GHz is not worth the potential hassle to get it working right. What I have done is to run stability tests on RC5. Unless there is some issue to back off to standard 1GHz clock, I just don;t see the need to OC to 1.3-1.4GHz. Not all phones are the same and OC will get to the physical silicon limit and eventually hurt reliability. I just want a working phone. If one wants to mess with OC, I would suggest strongly do some reading first.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Had to change the 1344 UV to 25 as 50 was starting to cause issues...
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
*edit* I misunderstood something... my bad...
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
I am running -50 for 1344 then -100 for everything else 100% stable.

1.4Ghz I do the same for 1400 at -50 and need to use -50 for 1000 to get it stable but its not quite 100% there and not much difference any way.

The extra power is well used for stuff like FPSE :-)

Sorry about using the word "normal". English is not my native language so please pardon me. What I mean is the eSPyel default setting should work for most users like me. If one want to tweak, I would recommend do some reading and research to minimize problem. For OC, I have seen the same question asked many times in this forum when one can just go read the post from shaolin95.

Again pardon me. Does not want to be negative with people who wants to tweak their phone.
