I transfered from cog /perception a long time ago, so I can't compare to the current ones. Main difference I saw was the focus on stability and gps, less on speed. The main reason for me to stay here is that I like the thread better. Much friendlier to noob questions and much less confrontational

Testers

I am uploading beta 2 to the server. I know that is not typical for me but I want perfection. I changed some of the GPS files(JM( as this is a froyo build) and added the speed mod "Q" kernel and a few extras. I will get it to you asap. I will also get it to you tsachi;)
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
ok. I flashed the zip you emailed me(2.0.2). I flashed about an hour ago. Is this the latest beta or will you send another out for us testers?
[Captivate Android Development] scottmac019:
Can 2.0 be flashed over 1.5?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
2.0.3 is the latest and will get to you in a bit.
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
Ok, thanks adam. Btw, I love the pull down notification with the green outline around it(looks almost like a box) very sleek. Sorry if I'm not suppose to tease any of this ;)

IRC

Hopefully some of the beta testers will get on the IRC channel to compare notes today as it makes testing a little easier. Or at least i think it does.

Below is the link for the web based IRC or if you have an IRC client you can just use it #ph0enix is the room. Also i use andchat app on my phone and it works.

Lol! I flashed 2.0 over phoenix 4.1 :D without any problems. I typically wipe dalvich cahe and wipe cache partition before I flash.
[Captivate Android Development] scottmac019:
Really?? Wow....that sure makes things easy...LOL....I already flashed to stock and master cleared...waiting for Adam to send me the link for 2.0.3 so I can help test it...
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Check your email testers. Changes include updated to latest SM kernel, (I know it is in testing but it works great for me) and changes to the dropdown to provide a much easier to read interface. Also through in the jm9 files as it is a froyo build and should help GPS tremendously.
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
That is what I do as well

Morning Adam,

I'm back from my week away from XDA.. Curious what seems to be working better.. Phoenix or Firefly? P3.0 is pretty good but as always I'm up for going for the next build or trying FF.

Thoughts?

Thanks :D

Tester Inquire

Adam,

I was wondering what will take to become a tester for your ROMs. I don't know if you have somebody here in Portland, OR metro area. This will give you one more point of refference.

Testers

New and existing testers. I am not getting any feedback from anyone. I can't fix potential issues without it. I know it is a work day, hell, I am doing this from my desk at work. I just want this ironed out so I can do the clean up should it need any.
[Captivate Android Development] nottoosmart:
I would love to be a tester. Need to see if the Exchange Email issue is resolved. Let me know if you want my help.
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
I wish I had something to report but everything seems polished. I seriously have zero issues. Only thing I can say really is maybe make the circle battery green to flow with the signal and wifi better. That is cosmetic though.
[Captivate Android Development] s1l3nt:
sorry didnt realize i got pm going to flash and test now
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I can work on that over time as there are over 200+ images to the battery and each one has about 20 individual dots to color in. Unless anyone would like to volunteer for that tedious task:D
[Captivate Android Development] gathrottle:
Haven't found any issues yet. Just need to check out the GPS as I work in a steel building and don't even have radio reception in here. Looks great so far.
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
Oh, I understand. Will continue testing.
[Captivate Android Development] scottmac019:
I already posted a few things...but to summarize:

GPS working pretty damn good....8 satellites in 8 seconds with 5 meter accuracy

Calls sound nice and clear on both ends.

Launcher Pro working great..no FC's or anything funky.

Market working like it's supposed to.

So far so good...no issues to report at all....haven't had a chance to try out Bluetooth yet...will do so when I pick my son up from school in another hour or so and will report after that..

edit the ui for the ringer volume looks a bit weird to me
[Captivate Android Development] ztoloev:
Very fast and responsive (faster than Phoenix 4.1). I installed FireFly right over Phoenix 4.1, no wipe, no clean install or anything like that. It works like a charm.

Here are some speed test and GPS test for my area here. I am using two different modems with two different WCDMA bands. After every GPS test I am clearing the data via SGS Tools.

Modem: JK4

Band: WCDMA 1900

GPS Test: Lock 4 Satellites after 2min.

Speed Test: Download - 700kbps, Upload – 400kbps (these average numbers from 3 tests)

Modem: JK4

Band: WCDMA 850

GPS Test: Lock 4 Satellites after 1min and 47sec

Speed Test: Download - 200kbps, Upload – 520kbps (these average numbers from 3 tests)

Modem: ZNKP1

Band: WCDMA 1900

GPS Test: Lock 4 Satellites after 2min 31sec.

Speed Test: Download - 1081kbps, Upload – 865.7kbps (these average numbers from 3 tests)

Modem: ZNKP1

Band: WCDMA 850

GPS Test: NO Lock after 5min

Speed Test: Download - 170kbps, Upload – 800kbps (these average numbers from 3 tests)

More results to come.

gave you immediate feedback for 2.0.2 but didn't get a PM for the beta
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Update. If you are looking for a rom who's gps is sucks, can't lock for anything and will get you lost in your own house you are in the wrong thread. I have modified the gps files again and just got the best results of my life with the captivate!! I am talking 8 second initial lock, no deviating from road when tracking, re-routing within seconds, no lag on turns and no skipping ahead at stop lights. Not even the testers have this set of files. After testing is complete I will fix any issues, none reported so far, and will release it with these files.

2 cents

Adam, amazing work you do. I've used your phoenix roms and I've just installed your firefly rom. So far, it is very fast and smooth. I just wanted to take the time to point out two things I've notice people having problem with here that I'm also having a problem with in firefly. 1 - Haptic feed back... I can turn it on but if you click on the button for the level of haptic feedback I get a fc. 2 - Bluetooth... it works/doesn't... if you turn it on through the notifications bar it works, if you go into settings and turn it on through there, you get a fc. For those complaining about dialers and such... please quit whining... if you are smart enough to flash a rom you should be smart enough to look through the threads and find replacements for what you don't like.

Great work Adam!
[Captivate Android Development] Joe Smithereens:
Does HSUPA work? I'm tempted to try this out but 3.5 is so nice...... grrrrrrrrr!
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
LOL!

Seriously, though - Should we assume Firefly will get most of your attention from now on? I just flashed Phoenix 3.5 last night and I have NEVER had any kind of decent GPS indoors before - it locked within 6-7 seconds and was very accurate in Google maps - a first for me. I will have to try firefly next and if it is better then I may have to stop my quickly growing addiction to flashing...
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
You ARE the man Adam! Just loaded FF up to give her a run.

So far my results are:

Cell signal is really good, I think your choice of modems/kernel combo is going to work really well for me.

GPS (for me) is as good as it is for Phoenix 3.5. Very fast lock, and it tracks damn near perfectly.

It is fast, really fast, and I'd be hard pressed to give you a reason why you would need any reason to try to make it faster

I'm really having no issues at all with your new found FireFly, she's a gem. Well done!

Diary of a new flash whore

Thursday night, install Cognition 3.0, This was my first flash

Friday morning, flash to Cognition 3.01

Run Cognition all day friday

Saturday morning, flash firefly 1.0, looking forward to HSUPA :)

Looks nice so far on first boot, off to play with it

Had to clear location data to get google navigation to boot correctly, stuck at checking for navigation ability, but otherwise no issues

Should use wireless networks be left off? I found it strange that wasn't selected by default.

[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
adam,

I just tested Firefly last night. It has multiple issues that I think needs to be addressed that a lot of other ROMs don't seem to care about.

1. Animated GIFs still do not work properly.

2. Browser checkerboards while tapping and dragging. Known issue that was fixed by di11igaf due to my thread alerting him to the fact.

3. Typing in a forum in landscape mode causes the screen to bounce downward so that you are never able to see what you are typing. Workaround is to use a browser like DolphinHD and enable fullscreen.

4. Dialpad WITHIN a call (not the external/first) has no sound when buttons are pressed.

There are a few others, but I have it at home on a database Excel sheet I compiled of ROMs and their bugs. I can get the rest of them tonight.

[Captivate Android Development] singlebeam:
I live on a ranch 45 minutes from town in Texas. There are no phone lines here, therefore my only option is satellite internet (Hughes).

I get a daily bandwidth limit of 300 MB (absolutely f*&%ing ridiculous I know). Once I exceed that limit, my speed is throttled to that of about dial-up or a dl speed of 5.5 kb/s or so. If I exceed my limit, I am throttled for 24 hours from that period.

When adam releases 2.0.2 - 2.0.4 at close to 150 MB per release, it's hard to stay under. After I downloaded 2.0.3 only to find out the next beta (2.0.4) was being uploaded, I was kind of screwed.

I'm not trying to blame you adam, just explaining my crappy situation. AHHHH so frustrating. I get unlimited bandwidth between 1 and 6 am so I'll stay up and download it :D

I tried Phoenix 4.1 and had a couple issues that I was wondering if they'd be in FF2. First, the GPS was terrible for me, even with tweaks others suggested. Second, I would often get the same texts from others multiple times. Usually twice. And when I got texts from people, my screen would not turn on like normal. Though, that may be a feature of the ROM or kernel.
