Well, I moved the apps off the sd card, but upon reboot, media scanning still takes forever.

Perhaps it's all my photos. I don't have much music, but I have more than a few photos, and one fair size video. That's what the card is for, though, and that's where they'll stay.
[Captivate Android Development] WirelessMike:

I can be patient for the benefit of using lp.

I've tried ADW and Go, and yeah, even Zeam (and these are ALL good launchers), but I always end up back on lp. I think it's the scrolling dock and tons of customization options that keep me loyal.

Besides, that little trick of unlocking after the first scan completes has yet to fail me. Just timing, I guess (on my cappy, at least).
[Captivate Android Development] WirelessMike:
You know, I ALWAYS forget about that little trick! :o
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
I don't mean to complain or anything, but I miss my Lloyd the Android emoticons. How would I go about putting those back in?
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
This isn't the first time the Gallery issue has come up. The SGS tool fix seemed to give a couple of people issues so I packed up a proper Gallery3d.apk zip in case it screwed with anyone else.
[Captivate Android Development] Drew489:
So do your guys phones say 2.5 too or do I have to reflash?
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I got the updated one from SGS tools. Just a heads up to see if we could possibly include into next release than have user remember to flash it.:)
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
It should not say 2.5; mine doesn't.
[Captivate Android Development] WirelessMike:
Did you flash an old mod? That happened to me once after flashing an old battery mod, I think...

I know that's a reach, but I can't think of anything else...
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
+1

I flashed 2.8 full, and mine says 2.8
[Captivate Android Development] Drew489:
Yea, I had flashed an old battery mod...guess that could be it.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
The Gallery3D.apk fix isn't available in the FireFly app. Thought xtreme would want to know :)

Is anyone getting problems with Launcher Pro where it doesn't save your settings when Launcher Pro restarts? It's getting fairly annoying.

Btw, what's with the new Music app? There's now the MIUI music and another music app. Both lack equalizer, but I guess we don't need that since we have Voodoo Sound. Which music app do you guys say is better? I found it to be a bit laggy.
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
yeah my post was specifically for LP FC's, is that what you have? Other things to try are get rid of all widgets, turn off media scanner for a bit using Rescan app (usb debugging needs to be on and appropriate settings in the app), and then maybe uninstall apps one by one that run as services on boot.

IMO Go Launcher is close enough to LP that you might live with it, but I still use LP for now as it uses less memory it seems. Not by much though. We'll see if LP 3 is worth it as they are writing it from scratch.

Your issue might just return if you wipe and go fresh FF,but thats not a bad way to go either as it will save time on troubleshooting.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
I like PowerAMP (paid ver.) myself. 10-band Graphic EQ, downloadable album art, scrolls and load fast & has really nice widgets.
[Captivate Android Development] enaybee:
Firefly 2.8

I have been using your rom from last two days now with no problems to report or very minor hiccup that were too minor to notice.

One feedback would be that "usb debugging" icon is missing from notification bar when USB is hooked up.

Other than that solid rom and great work. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] dwmoss:
X this is my situation exactly so thank you for thinking of stability for us daily drivers.

dm
[Captivate Android Development] WirelessMike:
If that's the case, you don't have to do a full flash to fix it.

Just flash the rom upgrade (it won't hurt anything to flash the upgrade even though you're really already on 2.8), then download fresh versions of the mods you want and re-flash them.

I think that would be easier, quicker and less intensive. :)
[Captivate Android Development] Drew489:
That worked, danke!
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
I'm pretty sure this was done in purpose, usb us enabled by default, how often do you toggle it off? Never, having it in the notification pulldown annoying imo
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Double true!

That debugging icon always bugs me, so off it goes.
[Captivate Android Development] loraque:
For posterity, I too had trouble after applying the update from 2.7 to 2.8. Odd fc's, music player would kick off when I would undock. The typical odd weirdness that demands a do-over. Flashed the full 2.8 package, did not do a restore but just an install of the apps (I came from CM7 to 2.7 and did the restore... oddness. 2.3 to 2.2 app data likely caused the oddities).

Real impressed with Firefly. Excellent work.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
On a side note but kind if related, how many people use the "audible selection" option? I find it super annoying and its on by default in every rom! And just hearing it the couple of times after a flash to turn it of makes my left eyelid twitch. anyway to turn that off by default?
[Captivate Android Development] bryman27:
+1!!! I find it very annoying also
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
That is true also, and it is the first thing I turn off too. I should look into how the build prop can handle this (if it can at all).
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
My wife is going to be so happy! She loves FF by the way. That is the first ROM that she actually commented me on. She actually gets good battery when it typically only lasts here about 6 hours bc she is a text/Facebook/internet junkie. Not to mention she leaves BT, wifi, auto rotate and pretty much anything she can leave on.
[Captivate Android Development] D-FUSE:
I am loving it to great battery and I didn't flash at 100% cuz I wanna to see dark fire fire fly. I bet after I re flash @ 100% will be even better
[Captivate Android Development] jlsesler:
adam,

Have you tried the jpd modem? My signal is much improved in my usual troubled spots. Any known issues with this modem?
[Captivate Android Development] indomikey:
Not sure what default setting in Firefly is, but have you tried to turn Samsung Apps off wifi? I not a text/facebook/internet junkie, but I do have facebook, gtalk, gmail, scoremobile all syncing in the background and I'm coming home after a 14 hour day at the office with more than 70% left on Phoenix 3.5

Setting is under settings->applications->samsung apps (but I'm sure you already knew this)
[Captivate Android Development] evrionis:
I was successful installing FF1.5, all looks well. But I get the I9000 instead of the sgh-897, also my KIES does not recognize the phone anymore.

How can I get the phone to be a SGH-897 instead of the I9000? To get KIES to recognize it.
[Captivate Android Development] Keland44:
I think i will finally flash my wife's phone with this tonight. I need to charge up to 100% so i can put this on my phone. Good work Adam.
[Captivate Android Development] comdei:
the kernal is from a 2.2.1 rom so the boot screen will say i9000, and kies doesn't really work for anyone anymore(if your talking about anything but upgrades, which never come)
[Captivate Android Development] ctfeet:
What problems were you having running i9000 modems? The only problem I have an annoying loss of service at random times - usually overnight that requires a reboot. I have a 1006 version phone.
[Captivate Android Development] b0wz:
replacing the dialer is how you change the .apk? I like the FF dialer....guess I don't need no stickin' VM icon....or is it the phone.apk separate from the dialer?
[Captivate Android Development] evrionis:
Is it then worth trying to get the phone to say its a sgh-i897?
[Captivate Android Development] dsc522758:
Thats funny! I'm the same way! I used to hit the news site and weather first thing out of bed! As of late its been XDA Developers...Phoenix, and now FireFly. Stop building great ROMS! :D
[Captivate Android Development] meyesme:
Soooooo odd...I tried this in the past, but I just may not have copied it using the right utilities and it never showed as it failing. But, just did it via root explorer, changed fs to r/w, copied over, rebooted, left a message and VIOLA!!!

Dude...between your roms, your help & advice through your threads, the patience of a saint that you have and the positive vibes you keep the whole time while doing what you do for the community, you my friend deserve the most good karma one could ever hope for.

Good people like you seem hard to come by these days!
[Captivate Android Development] bobbylx:
I get the same, random service loss requiring a reboot. I've had i9000 modems run for almost 24 hours with no loss, then I charge it and some time during charge I lose service. Reboot, service returns and from there on out I lose service anywhere between every 10 minutes to a couple hours. There's ongoing discussion in the QA section about this, with no solution so far other than to run a Captivate modem/kernel combo. And my phone is a 1007.

On a side note. I'm not sure if I got a bad flash or what, but I am trying the process again. Everything seemed to work fine until I tried to call my wife. If would dial, ring one time, then disconnect. That happened with a few other contacts also. I tried calling my work phone and it was perfect. Tried removing and resyncing contacts, still had the issue. Just finished the modem flash and will try again.
[Captivate Android Development] Kakashi28:
I wonder how many people have the same problem with VM or it just few of us that have this problem. Any fix without trying different phone.apk......
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Getting no VM notification. Running R64 theme if that helps with information gathering.

Which Phone.apk should I use?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I am so happy you are happy. If you need anything else you know where I am:D
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Use the one from the ginger remix theme
[Captivate Android Development] SMaximus7:
VM notifications

Yeah same here. No VM notifications. I used to get them on Phoenix. I'm running the Generation X theme. I did install the stock dialer from the phoenix website. Will it work if I get the phone.apk from phoenix 3.5 and drop it on FF 1.5?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Grab the one from the ginger remix theme.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Has anyone run into this (very) minor bug. No tone heard on Call Connect tone when it is checked off.

I resolved this by unchecking, saving that setting, then going back in and checking again. Working now.
[Captivate Android Development] ippon:
try deleting com.fede.launcher folder in dbdata/dadabases
[Captivate Android Development] eureb:
I use handcent instead of the stock messaging app, and was able to switch back to Lloyd using that.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Idk if this is a dumb question but what modem do you think would work best on the East Coast in PA. Anyone else try out some modems? Im testing JL2 Right now.
[Captivate Android Development] eureb:
I'm still debating if I like the UI tweeks.. is there any way to switch back to FF without them? Because overall, I like the stock theme better than the various other themes (they're too monochromatic for me), but there are some of your tweeks that I don't care for (the pattern unlocker pegs and the new smilies to name a few)
[Captivate Android Development] hamburgertrain:
Is there any particular reason to why when I flashed 2.8, my info reads that it is version 2.5? And does wifi work with i9010(armani) kernels?
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
If your version reads as 2.5 then you must have flashed the wrong zip. As for I9010 kernels, you'd have to check the info for that specific kernel. If it's not re-oriented to work with any 2.2 ROM's, then I would not try to use it.
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
So I'm finding this rom to be laggy / jittery even after applying ext4 lagfix and oc to 1.4... not sure what is going on.. but even as I type this there is slight delay as I type each letter

I flashed from stock 2.1 - not my first pony ride either :)

Any suggestions? I was running cm7/miui for the last 2 months..decided to try something different
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
JL2, JL3, JK4, KP1 are traditionally the most popular modems. There has also been good results reported with KC1. You'll have to try out a few to decide which is best for you. What is good for one phone isn't necessarily good for another, even in the same town. Check my sig for the modem link to try out others if you don't know already where to get them.
[Captivate Android Development] hamburgertrain:
I mean I flashed the zip for going directly from another rom to 2.8

the zip is even called firefly2-8.

and the i9010 kernels say they're reoriented for 2.2 yet I cannot seem to get wifi working. I tried both skullcap and ursaminor.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
Did you flash back to stock before installing FF? If not I would say there may be some problem that occurred when flashing over CM7. You may want to try a master clear and re-flash. I definitely don't experience any lag or jitter on this ROM; it's the main reason I like it (smoothness). Just spit-ballin' ideas.
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Yep flashed to 2.1 before cf (2nd paragraph) 2.1 seemed quite snappy before FF
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
Well then I would suggest a fresh flash from stock (and a master clear couldn't hurt either). Someone else in this thread said their version said 2.5 instead of 2.8 a few pages back, so maybe there's a bug. However, I flashed the full 2.8 from stock and master clear and it says 2.8. As for those kernels and their WiFi problems, you may want to ask those dev's about it.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
Are you using the Speedmod K13D that came with FF 2.8? Maybe try a different kernel? I would suggest either Onix or Suckerpuch-Voodoo. Only idea I have left, sorry. :(
[Captivate Android Development] :
Whats the difference between Onix 100hz and 1000hz and if i flash the 1000hz that wont ruin my battery life or processor? Cuz i heard OC/UV can kill your processor faster and make it not last as long as it would before.
[Captivate Android Development] hamburgertrain:
Do you think I could get by with just editing the build.prop file to 2.8 so I can continue to update? because it runs fantastically and it has the recent UI tweaks.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
You can find the answer to this in the Onix thread, second post.
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Yup using onix to OC to 1.4..

Might try factory reset and see if that does it
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
I suppose so but there's no guarantee that there's no other bugs that may have crept in, so be aware of that.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
Yes it would work fine. What seems to be the issue with the 2.5 build is if you reflashed a battery mod that was older it will revert your build to that earlier version. You can do three things:

1- re-download the battery mod and flash on top of the current one

2- update the build.prop

3- flash from the full 2.8 and restore that way and put all your crap back on.

I would suggest options 1 or 2

@born_fisherman

I think you just had a random bad flash my friend. This ROM is lightning quick, I think If you give yourself another fresh flash from stock with a master clear you should be fine.

After enabling the ext4 lagfix, go and enable tweaks as well in the advanced ULF features in CWM .... If you are lagging you can try to swap out kernels, but you are the first person I have read about that experienced lag on a k13D kernel, therefore I highly doubt it is a kernel issue.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Yea ha i just saw that. i scrolled down to see if i could find it in the Onix thread and what do ya know? Which do you prefer?
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
@ Johnny

you get the signal issue sorted out? It still going strong for you now?
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
I always use standard 100hz myself.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
Actually it started up again. Cell standby under battery usage was saying 50% time without signal! So I flashed back to stock, master cleared and re-flashed FF 2.8 full. So far so good. Still not sure what was causing the problem. If everything stays fine, then I'm just going to stick with Speedmod. Thanks for asking, though! :)
[Captivate Android Development] :
So when I try to flash FireFly with ROM Manager, it reboots for me once I pick the ZIP file to install and upon rebooting it goes to the "Android system recovery", where it shows a bunch of yellow text and then fails with red text:

update media, please wait

update media, finished
-- Install from package...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
[COLOR="Red"]E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed[/COLOR]

-- Applying Multi-CSC...
Installing Multi-CSC
[COLOR="Red"]Installation aborted.[/COLOR]

When I try to select "reboot system now", it doesn't work. When I press the OPTION button, the screen switches to a picture of the green android and a triangle with an exclamation mark in it. I have to do a battery pull to get it to shut off. Upon the next reboot, however, I'm in clockwork recovery as I expect. Anyone know why this is happening?
[Captivate Android Development] meadhros:
Rom manager is not so good for froyo. Will not go to recovery on its own. Go recovery and flash zip from there.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
Or use the AIO Captivate Toolbox.
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Factory reset seemed to fix my lag issue..

Is it possible to get lock screen music controls ?
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
I've flashed more ROMs then I care to admit but my first time trying Firefly (don't know how I missed it) but so far so good. Only one issue and that's it will pair with my bluetooth gps but not my gps ear set. No biggie just never had an issue before.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
A user named canada45 had a seemingly big GPS/bluetooth issue. We suggested he try some different I9000 modems found HERE give some different ones a try and see if it fixes the problem for you.
[Captivate Android Development] ippon:
hmm, i just noticed that my build also says 2.5
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
read up and back a couple of pages, the fix is there
[Captivate Android Development] WirelessMike:
Posted this before, but it turns out you may only have to flash a fresh version of any battery mod. If that doesn't fix it, flashing the upgrade over 2.8 won't hurt anything and will definitely fix that version number.
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
I was having sleep death issues with onix kernel.. Switched to sucker punch and all is good now

Food for thought if u are having issues
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I had "freeze" not sleep death when on Onix. I noticed two non-standard states - 600 and 900. After I disabled these two states, I did not face any freeze issues. Maybe u could try disabling these two states, and limiting ur top speed to 1000 and check if u r still facing the issues.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Can anyone please tell me how I can enable that "beep" sound when I connect the phone to charger.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
Suckerpunch or Suckerpunch-voodoo? The original suckerpunch is an older version of Onix and seemed to not have the issues that Existz has been having lately with his newer builds.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Kernels

Is there something wrong with the SpeedMod kernel? I use it on ApeX, Continuum and FireFLy with no problems.
[Captivate Android Development] ippon:
well, i re-flashed the batt mod, but still says 2.5.

when i go into SGS tools to edit the build prop, it force closes.

what would happen if i try to flash the 2.7-2.8 upgrade file again?
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
U cud update it on system instead of on phone.
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Voodoo #12
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
I was experiencing the sleep death without overclocking too.. I'm good with suckerpunch for now
[Captivate Android Development] Johnnie5000:
I don't know if what I was experiencing earlier today would necessarily be called sleep death or freeze death; mine would lock up and reboot at the end of every phone call. Was on Onix 2.0.4, flashed back to speed-mod kernel and the problem went away.

Thought it was just me until I got home and checked in here and see everyone else is having trouble with Onix too.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
Speedmod kernel

Seems that multi quote function isn't working so well for me... whoever was asking whether anything was wrong with the speedmod kernel, the answer is no. Speedmod is just fine.

You can flash the upgrade to 2.8 again without anything happening. Could fix your issues.
[Captivate Android Development] eureb:
haha, Just noticed that it was missing now.... I'd like to know how to add it back as well if possible
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
I would like to know how to remove the beeping noise when I plug the phone in...annoying as hell :)
[Captivate Android Development] NunHugger:
Go into root explorer system/media/audio/ui and change the charge_connection.oog to charge_connection.txt

sent using a phone.
[Captivate Android Development] ippon:
interesting.

i just did it, and now i have the 'sexy' dialer AND call recording, which i couldn't get before.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Did the opposite to have my charger connect sound back, and enabled battery full sound too. Thanks a bunch dude.
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
@JGGW Should have thought of that as I keep a couple different modems on my sd card. Flashed one of the other ones, kp1, and that seemed to take care of the bluetooth issue.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Alright guys, I don't know what to do now. I will be putting up my laptop for sale soon, in hopes of getting some money to payoff the bills. This also means that I wont have a computer to dev on for a while (unless I find an internet cafe, do we even have these anymore?). I think the money should take care of this month and I am hoping I will find a job before the end of the month, so I can get back in the game.

Just wanted to give you guys a heads up before I disappear for a few. I am in no way giving up development for this awesome ROM (my brother suggested selling the cappy before I sell the laptop and I smacked him!).

I'll be back soon.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
:( Sorry to hear that. Sent u a PM.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
no worries.

Here is just a quick look at what I am trying to put together.

I usually leave these as surprises on updates, but not sure when that will be.

I have the entire thing done, but it just won't work right now. I have figure out whats borking it.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
Oh chit! I'm sorry to hear that, fr srs. And not just for selfish reasons. Having to sell anything (let alone a computer) for bills sucks. I'm on the job hunt myself. It really sucks out there right now. I hope you can find something soon and get back to doing what you love.

Also: That boot screen is sick!
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Wait, you live alone?! I thought you lived with your parents.

Good luck with real life man. Give us a shout if you need help.
[Captivate Android Development] Ptaaty:
I feel like an idiot, but I can't find a donate link for you. I am enjoying your ROM, and I'm sure others are too. It would be nice to shoot you some money to help stave off the laptop sale and show appreciation.
