By any chance, where can I download the default background. I installed the rom and then i restored everything and I cant find the wallpaper anymore.. I cant find it looking through the zip. Any help would be appreciated :-)
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
I was also having major battery drain no matter what I did (flash to stock, master clear, full paragon Rc3, even applied update rc3) it wasn't till I installed kp1 modem and latest speedmod kernel...now I get better overall speed, battery, display auto brightness... I did have a few FC's here and there, but after a few reboots its screaming with awesome battery and GPS ROCKS! donation inbound shortly! my Captivate finally works like I thought it should! my speedtest.net downloads at 4.68 mbps and uploads at 2.65 mbps (utterly impressive)

oh and I love the added power menu options that is super sweet!

[Captivate Android Development] n7slc:
Can you point to where I can download those and are they flashed through CWM?
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
yes, all CWM flashable

[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I had a similar expericence with the modem that was installed during my flash, JK4. The difference for me was I reflashed a copy of JK4 I had and my GPS was back to what it should be as is my cell signal from what I can tell so far. GPS was a huge improvement. Since I reflashed the same modem, its kinda weird but much better none the less. Something to consider if people are not seeing the GPS results they are expecting, its a pretty simple task.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
I did the same thing, reflashed just the modem after install. I wasn't getting the 3G speeds I thought I should from central Florida. Flashing the JK4 again made a noticeable difference in speeds. Haven't tested GPS yet, but did yesterday on the initial JK4 from the ROM install and it locked 8 of 10 in about 20 seconds. Tracking was good, but still overshoots turns and keeps going when you're at a stop. Not perfect, but far above what the phone does stock.

[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
I have tried recalibrating my battery a few times with Paragon RC3 and it never goes above 98% battery. Even after charing to full with it on, turning off and charging to full. When it comes back on it is still 98%. Not sure why it never goes to 99 or 100% but oh well not a big deal I guess.

Other then that I am loving it. Ive been on this rom for almost a week and thats a long time for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Have you fully charged it then booted into recovery and wiped battery stats?
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
Yeah at least three times on different days. I just now charged it to full twice while on and twice while off then booted straight into recovery and wiped the battery stats.

Honestly, I have never seen my battery at 100% or 99% on this rom except for when the phone is on and it charges to full it shows 100% while still plugged in. Once unplugged it goes to 98%.

This isn't a huge bug by any means though, I have been using RC3 for a while now and love it. My battery life isnt the best but here lately seems like no matter what Rom/Modem/Kernel combo I use my battery life isn't good.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Well I don't pay much attention to my battery so I can't say that I have the 100->98 glitch, but my battery does seem to drain pretty quickly though lately it seems to have been getting better.
[Captivate Android Development] pside15:
Anyone having exchange issues? I have used countless roms and have not had 1 issue with my company's exchange server but I can not get it to connect on Paragon. I really like everything else about this rom. Hopefully I can get it working.
[Captivate Android Development] deanhatescoffee:
I'm glad I was able to help. It made such a big difference for me, I had to share. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
No problems here with Paragon. I have had issues on some other ROM's though. To fix them I took the email.apk out of a ROM I had no problems with and replaced it in the ROM I was having problems with. Rebooted, and was in business.
[Captivate Android Development] grkmaster:
thanks but the quality seems to be less than the one that came preloaded with the rom
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
Just a brief update, since i dont have access to a computer for the whole day, I'm flying with RC4 now :D no issues, you nailed it once again!
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
no problems here as well with Exchange 2010 SP1
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
RC4 :eek: how long till us mere mortals get to see it?
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Good question...I dont think it would be too long unless he plans on adding even more stuff to it. It has been running like a dream with no SOD for me or any other thing and the kernel is a beauty and a beast!
[Captivate Android Development] psufan5:
Indeed. Im using his kernel with Darky... friggen love it.
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
I had a problem with exchange but then I installed the 30 trial of Exchange for Android 2.x by NitroDesk and that set up fine.

Then I went to the ROM's email and was able to get exchange set up and then just deleted the NitroDesk app.

And this was my first flash on my phone (have done my tablet a dozen times) but it went flawless and performance is awesome.
[Captivate Android Development] Natascha303:
Anyone tried to get KeepTheLightsOn installed? well it does but only the widget way is possible.

how can you install it that way that you dont have to hit the widget and though the light keepin on while workin ?
[Captivate Android Development] upNsmokeAllDay:
Does your kernel incorporate the new voodoo sound fix?
[Captivate Android Development] alkiter:
I'll second that and would add Root Explorer to the must have list.

Battery life looks great, down 10% in 3 hrs.
[Captivate Android Development] scuba_d:
i put pictures back on that I had backed up, and none of them show up, I get a gray square with a lightening bolt in the top and a white outline guy. Anyone know how I can get these pics to show back up?
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Will cosmic and other JPY theme's work with this? Still downloading but no matter how great it looks I guarantee that will be a popular question. May be worth putting on the OP.
[Captivate Android Development] upNsmokeAllDay:
So I answered my own question by flashing the kernel. You should incorporate the new voodoo sound and them it would be perfect.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Looking into this. I never use live wallpapers so I didn't notice. It seems to be only the ones you listed. All the others seem to work fine.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
I'm actually running with pretty agressive undervolting and max clock speed at 800mhz. Seeing how much battery life I can squeeze out of this thing :) Still runs fast and smooth at a max of 800.

The window animations will all be enabled and set to fast after you reboot after the first boot. It's done with an init script.

Let me know how the gps tracking works for you. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

I'll probably have some cwm flashable addons for some of the things others are requesting.

Thanks for the feedback!
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Cool video! Just wanted to point out those quadrant and linpack numbers are without the OC :)
[Captivate Android Development] chipsa964:
Yea I'm on serendipity now, and I really like the themed swype. It looks really nice and sleek. Also, if you could add the 4 lock screen options, that would make it even sweeter. I flashed this last night, and I don't think home haptic is working, so if you could get that worked out, that would be great too. If you can get those things worked on, I just might switch :)
[Captivate Android Development] mrflips:
Just flashed, and I really love all of the UI tweaks and animations. GPS is still fast, but I have not had any problems with my replacement 1007 from AT&T so I may not be the best rep to provide feedback on that front. I think I will try and OC/UV to see how the battery performs, but great work thus far and thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] scuba_d:
google voice doesn't put out any sound on this rom. can't here them say the translation. and I figured out the picture problem. Had to move all the old pics to the new dcim camera folder, delete the thumbnail folder and restart the phone. All good now.
[Captivate Android Development] mr.valacky:
your rom is amazing.I really like.
[Captivate Android Development] lore2486:
can someone please upload it somewhere else, im downloading at 18k/sec so its gonna take for ever to download
[Captivate Android Development] apbamaman:
Root Explorer and Titanium Backup Pro are MUST buys. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] bullinthechinashop:
I love this ROM so far. It looks great and it's fast and stable. I haven't had any slowdowns or even pauses.

Unfortunately -

My GPS still sucks even on this ROM. Can't get a fix at all. I'm beginning to wonder if my phone is just plain broke...
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Did you do anything other than turn 'use wireless networks off' in the settings? Did you change anything in lbstestmode?
[Captivate Android Development] randomafk:
my battery life went down ~9% in 1 hour. might just be my phone though since i had kind of similar experiences with other roms but during startup android media process, system and gallery took up a lot of the cpu

gps works incredibly well though
[Captivate Android Development] bullinthechinashop:
+1 for TB pro. If you have a lot of apps trust us you want the pro version. With the free version when you do a batch job to restore all of your apps you get a pop-up for each app asking if you want to install it or not. And then when the app is done installing you have to click ok. After 100 time that gets really irritating. When you restore your apps with the pro version you just tell it to do it and it restores everything all by itself without any more input from you.
[Captivate Android Development] bullinthechinashop:
No all I did was to make sure "use wireless networks" was unchecked.

I'm still new at this as far as the Captivate is concerned. I don't even know what lbstestmode is...

Thanks.

Edit:

I tried the GPS again a few hours later and I got much better performance. It was actually showing me to be on the right street for once.

Edit:

I take it back - Now it's back to not getting a lock at all. I officially give up. Time to buy a stand-alone gps unit. And boycott Samsung. Everybody makes fun of the Backflip but at least my Backflip's GPS works.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
+1, best two utility apps.
[Captivate Android Development] bethanensinger:
I have had this problem with lots of the roms, what usually happens is that it says it has charged to 100% but in reality its only charged to 98%, I just charged mine overnight and when I took it off the charger it said Full instead of 99% or 98%. So mostly I would say ignore the fully charged notification
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Yeah it seems to go away after a few days if you leave it charging often. In fact to move from 98 to 99 it just takes a few replugs when charging at least for me.
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
Same here, never happed before. I did the same thing you did to fix it.
[Captivate Android Development] chuby007:
Hey do you need to disable lagfix before applying this kernel ?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Have you tried clearing the e-mail app data? Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All Tab -> Email -> Clear data

Not really sure what you mean. AfaIk Keep The Lights On is widget controlled and you need to put the widget on one of the desktops, turn it on, then you can remove the widget.
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
Did not think of that.

I'll give it a try.
[Captivate Android Development] ooo.stephen:
i used the widget to activate the app, then removed it from the home screen, and it now comes on automatically and remains on, with each boot.
[Captivate Android Development] mnemonicj:
Anyone else having an issue with a "System" FC after a reboot? I have issues with Bluetooth and GPS connections afterward. It doesn't happen all of the time, but I have had it happen after rebooting twice and my only solution is to power down and back up.
[Captivate Android Development] Natascha303:
did it, but like u say... it "remains on" even when im not touching the screen.

i knew KTLO on this way (another Rom): while browsing or touching, lights turn off after 5-6 seconds but screen is still on. Then touching again and lights turn on...

no way to do this ?
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
Deleting data on the email app did the trick.

Exchange entered no problem.
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
Yes the first time I rebooted after install, it said system fc. I powered off it came back ok.

It also had been resetting display animation every time I rebooted.

Did not do it this time?
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
Spoke too soon, did it again.

It is fast if you let it get up and running. No more system fc.
[Captivate Android Development] ooo.stephen:
mm...if i understand you correctly, you want the lights to auto turn off, but then turn back on when touching the screen? my lights are so dimm, its hard to tell, but that sounds like the phones default behavior. otherwise, i know of no app that does that.
[Captivate Android Development] ooo.stephen:
kinda. sometimes, during boot, a popup window reads something about system not responding and offers two buttons: close and wait. i get the sense the 'system' process is hanging, and leaving the phone alone for a few minutes (5-10), seems to allow it to complete the boot process. it doesn't happen every time, so its i've been leaning towards an app settings/config issue, as opposed to the rom; especially with all the tweaking and installing ive done lately. suspect apps are Juice Defender Pro, Launcher Pro, Photo Contact, and Bookmarks Widget.
[Captivate Android Development] tnayrbj:
I have

I have done it both ways and it is fine, just takes longer.
[Captivate Android Development] Natascha303:
exactly, cause that was the behavior i knew from another rom.

but as u said, maybe that is a deeper thing in the rom.

anyway, i hope the lights wont catch my energy too much :D
[Captivate Android Development] alabamaroping:
CURED!

This ROM is so awesome it has cured my flashing addiction. I still want to flash others, but I cannot imagine how they could possibly be better.

Fast, stable, all the features I want. Lean and clean on install.

Updates that don't wipe when available.

I've had zero issues. best battery life ever. great gps.

THANK YOU!
[Captivate Android Development] mnemonicj:
That's right, it does come up with the Close and Wait options. I have always chosen wait, but I am not sure how long I waited before I started messing with the phone. I will have to see if it corrects itself after 10 minutes when it happens again.
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
Bet it is launcher pro. I have that installed as well. I froze the stock launcher in TB.

Seems to reboot ok now.
[Captivate Android Development] boe_dye:
This is such a ridiculous question and i apologize for the clutter.

Where is the stock Green Android wallpaper? I was trying out different wallpapers and decided that I like the stock the best, but I cannot seem to fnd it! It doesnt show up in any wallpaper sets!
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
The BT voice dialing on the rom is great.

Is it tied to the kernel, modem or the rom itself?

I was surprised to fined so many other good roms not working with BT voice dial.

Great rom, fast clean.

I will try to stay with it. (Rom junkies are so fickle)

Keep up the good work.
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
I have a really cheap Bluetooth head set and had my doubts but it paired right up...nice job
[Captivate Android Development] apbamaman:
You just had to rub it in...
[Captivate Android Development] mnemonicj:
I don't have launcher pro installed.
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
I guess I messed up I quoted:

Just wanted to say thanks for this ROM. I have tried many others since day one, and after using Doc's for a while, thought I had found the best. Battery is very important, and this ROM may have just beaten Doc's all around by a slim margin. If you need beta testers, please add me to your list. For those that had doubt on this ROM, .....you seriously need to try it. Claims are clearly validated!
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:
same here, I've stuck with this longer than any other. I really don't want to flash any more, right now at least.

Which my wife appreciates because I've been spending less time on these forums because of it.

Now I just check for updates :D
[Captivate Android Development] bamonkey:
+9001! lol!

im a terrible flash addict and i actually only xda when i have a bit of free time when i wake up or when im at work at night *i dont want to annoy my woman lol*. however i have stuck with this rom longer than most, just tried a few different kernels that have come out *voodoo2 is sweeeet!* but yeah this is a pretty sweet rom i gotta say:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
Yes. I did it just to be safe. I haven't turned it back on yet... will try to re-enable lagfix tonight.
[Captivate Android Development] slyguy2000:
yeah, I agree, for some reason, if there is even just 1 app installed on the external_sd, this will cause launcher pro to hang on bootup... I only use my external SD for Titanium Backups, and all my files I need for when I do a Master Clear (Modems, Kernels, ROM's, APK's, etc).

Battery report:

Charged full unplugged.

Reset battery status.

Took 2 3 minute calls.

Drove home with bluetooth handsfree unit in car

Made one 1 minute call and took one 3 minute call while running co-pilot gps

BTW GPS sync was so fast I missed seeing it happen.

40 minute drive home.

Arrived with 79% battery

This seems reasonable to me.
[Captivate Android Development] Sublim3_Tilt:
Test drove the ROM all day today,

Made five, three minuet calls.

Checked multiple email accounts, multiple times (All notifications worked).

Browsed web for about fifteen minuets.

Played a few games (extreme droid jump and angry birds) ten minuets each.

Finished reapplying all my settings from the master clear.

GPS ten minuet drive home. Locked very fast!

55% battery! And it puts a big grin on my face every time I turn it on, Love the visuals!

Not sure if it is the launcher and its not an issue for me but there is no landscape on my homepages?
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
What have I set wrong:

When I reboot display animations turns itself back on?

Also I was told that the bluetooth was noisy. Is that to be expected?
[Captivate Android Development] lpsi2000:
Yes, I would love to try out 1.4 kernel. Don't tell me it is running stable at 1.4 with no issues? You and I have the same phone, so far everything that worked on yours worked for me too.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
So far 1.4Ghz has been rock solid knock on wood. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
I reported this a few days back, have not seen a response yet. Hopefully a future update will fix this.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Launcher2 doesn't support landscape. You can try any number of launchers on the market that do. I would recommend zeam or launcher pro. I also like Go Launcher.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
I know what is causing this. I'll fix it in the next release.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
PM headed your way... :)
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Animations turning back on will be fixed in next release. What modem are you using?
[Captivate Android Development] switters1:
Two quick questions:

1. A few upcoming fixes/features have been disclosed in some random posts. Can a list of these upcoming changes be put in the OP or elsewhere?

2. I'd like to try this ROM, but I'm sure the new release is imminent. Will the changes be provided in an update file? Or will a new flash be required?

Even with Tibu full, recovering all apps, settings and widgets can still be a tedious task. And there's always the chance that some apps inexplicably don't reestablish market links...
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
No need to wait. I always release an update file so you won't have to reinstall anything. I just built a new kernel so RC4 is being pushed back a bit for further testing.
[Captivate Android Development] sabesh:
Nice! Is this Kernel based on SpeedMod also? Thx.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Yes and I just got a report of getting double the battery life on the new kernels than they got on RC3!
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
It is looking sweet....lots more testing to do but expect a full report later.
[Captivate Android Development] sabesh:
Wow, that's indeed impressive! This is already is the best ROM in terms of GPS & battery life while O/Ced. Looking forward to the new release. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] switters1:
I just flashed this ROM from stock.

Where is the Voltage control app? It is not in my applications list. Do I need to get it separately?

[Captivate Android Development] kennonk:
I found these settings earlier in this thread, I don't recall which post otherwise I would link for credit ;-)

cfq scheduler 50 75 75 100 125 125 running at 1000MHz

I've had zero stability issues with those settings and standby battery seems like an extremely slow drain compared to any other rom/voltage settings I've used so far.

My one and only complaint so far with Paragon is I usually have weird lag when I pull down the notification window. Nothing else on this puppy lags even a little except that. And I think they know about that as I have seen some chatter about it so I think it will be resolved in the next rev. This is a great rom, thanks to everyone whose had a hand in it's creation. Samsung should take notes.
[Captivate Android Development] 8526WM6:
Clock Timer Count Down Alarm Not Audible

I just flashed this ROM after trying the PHOENIX. This ROM has the same problem. When using the count down timer in Clock, you cannot hear the audible alarm. I did a flash back to stock and master reset before flashing it. Stock ROM has the audible alarm sound.

Can anyone please set their timer in Clock to two seconds and verify this for me? TIA! :)
[Captivate Android Development] deanhatescoffee:
I have the same problem, and have noticed it on other ROMs as well. I think it's related to 2.2.1 as I never had the problem until I started using ROMs based on that. My solution was to download and use StopWatch & Timer (free from Market). Perhaps this app could be included with Paragon as a replacement for the stock timer, or at least mentioned in the OP for those who need this functionality? (Assuming the stock app can't be fixed, that is.)
