Nope no need for incremental flashing. The full 3.0 is just that a full wipe rom. You can flag that from any version of firefly...and any other froyo rom for that matter.

+1 for suckerpunch
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
If you want to keep your apps, settings etc intact then you need to go from 2.3 to 3.0 incrementally using the no wipe packages.

To jump to FF 3.0 you need to grab the Full wipe package.

Two very different things, so my advice on the first post is still correct.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnsondr80:
Firefly 3.0 with updater scripts are ready.

I never could get the partions to mount correctly for speedmod kernal but it works great loaded with Onix or suckerpunch.

Going to look at supernova today,

And see what I can do.

the camera takes pictures with the power button, but I am not sure if it auto focuses when I just click the power button. If i try to hold the power button to wait for it to focus, the power off menu appears on the screen and disrupts the camera. How is it supposed to work?
[Captivate Android Development] bryman27:
That's how it does work. Not really how it should work in my opinion.
[Captivate Android Development] matase:
like with serendipity 6.4 you hold down the power button to let it focus(you hear the beep), and release it to capture a picture.

No ringtones

My phone also will not ring about half way through the day. Is there any fix for this?

It will also not enter sleep mode sometimes too. I guess I will try to flash back to 2.9 or something......... anyone have any answers? Everyone else just wants to talk about wall paper.
[Captivate Android Development] gautaml:
Anyone have the phone crashing/locking up when using the camera? Like when you try to do an operation really fast (i.e. hit back button several times or something).

I've had it happen a few times and it usually requires a soft reboot (Vol Dn + Power).

I'm currently running FF3.0 w/ Onix 2.0.5-oc#1 (2.6.32.9)

Other than that the phone's been fine and stable.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
The problem is with your OC. If you don't want something like that to happen, flash Speedmod ;)
[Captivate Android Development] gautaml:
OC? Overclocked? I have Voltage control but have everything disabled. I did play around with the voltages/overclocking but not lately.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
I mean that when you start playing with OC/UV, you gain performance at the cost of stability. The only reason I can see for your camera problem is that you're OC'ed.
[Captivate Android Development] mindbullet:
I have your same setup with OC and UV since FF3.0 came out and its been stable for me as well. (recently came back to this setup too after trying out the recent Cognition updates). I've had very few sleep/charge deaths... worth it for the performance gain IMO. I have noticed though that every once in a while the camera will lock up sometimes when notifications pop up, especially when using the video camera.

My solution was just to put the phone in airplane mode while shooting video. I haven't had it lock up since. I haven't had trouble with just taking normal pictures. You could try installing the camera from SGS tools to see if that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] ccheung:
I use blutooth hardware keyboard, how can I hide the soft keyboard?
[Captivate Android Development] quarlow:
The back button will hide the keyboard, but you would have to do that every time the keyboard pops up. I don't think there is a setting anywhere to disable the keyboard auto pop-up.

This is not a FF specific question, others probably had this issue with other ROMs or phones. There may be an app on the market to help, try Googling something like 'disable keyboard pop-up android'.

Adding lock screens

is there any way to add lock screens to Firefly? I've seen some really great ones on other roms that I would love to use. Is that possible? or am I in over my head?
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
I believe there's some on xda you can add using a app but I'm not sure what it's called. You'll have to do some research. Also, if you find something, make sure it's for froyo based rom.
[Captivate Android Development] gautaml:
Well the phone locking up couldnt've happened at a worse time.

My sis was graduating teachers college at UoT and at her convocation moments before her name was called up, i get ready to switch from Photo to Video mode. And it locks up. FFFFFFFFFFFF.

Ah wells, will keep this for a while until Mosaic is worth switching for.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Whatchoo mean "until mosaic is worth switching for"?

thems are almost fighting words!

Lol jk ;)
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
Word. Mosaic is ready. Battery life and speed are better and bugs are minor.

Rogers users....it runs great with jk4 modem.

I miss the FF though but I can't go back now!
[Captivate Android Development] xThe Enforcer:
Ah, I miss FF. I'm theming Mosaic right now to bring back memories :)
[Captivate Android Development] gautaml:
Well I've never had a problem with Firefly 3.0

The only thing that's glitchy is the camera software for some reason (the locking up issue mentioned earlier).

As for whether Mosaic's ready, well i'm sure it is but not for me :)
[Captivate Android Development] Atomic_R53:
I am just afraid I am going to brick my phone switching over to Mosaic.

how do i flash to mosaic from firefly 3.0? sory iam a bit new

do i still need to stock to 2.1

like what they said in this thread?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=884364

the follow the directions as stated on the mosaic thread? used odin to flash stock gb then flash the custom rom? thanks :)
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Just flash stock gb over firefly no need to go to stock. If odin flashes 2.1 over firefly why wouldn't it flash 2.3.3? It wipes then writes doesn't matter what's on there when you plug it in.
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
Hi guys,

First of all, I'd like to say this is an extraordinary rom... I'm using the honeycomb theme and it's awesome.

But I"m having some issues with the launcher pro that came with the rom...

When I try to update it to 0.8.6 it tells me that it is an unsigned package. It also seems that I can't uninstall it...

In order to resolve this, should I just browse into the folder with the apk and replace it with the new one?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Umm launcher pro isn't included in the rom, that must gave been in the theme you flashed. If it's a themed LP then that's probably why it's doing that. you can un install it with titanium backup, or as you said navigate to either /system/app and delete it.
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
That must be it, I flashed the honeycomb theme and I guess it came in that.

Thanks for the tip, I forgot you can uninstall it in ti-bu!
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
So that didn't work. Ti-bu wouldn't uninstall it fully. After that I tried using root explorer to delete apk, now it appears to be gone, but I am unable to install the new version from the market. It tells me it's an incompatible update... so something is still in the system making it think the old version is still there.

Any suggestions before I just flash the theme again?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Have you rebooted since uninstalling it?
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
LOL I was just about to post that it worked after reboot. Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] kruuth:
This is great. I'm new to firefly but I'm impressed. Right now though, I keep getting this weird "android.process.media has stopped immediately" error. Is that normal? Baring that, this is running great.

I have been using FF 3 since early May without issues. But today I got a message saying that the trial period for Swype had expired, please update your version of Swype.

What do I do?
[Captivate Android Development] Atomic_R53:
Yeah I just got the same message.
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
Its the themed swype is the beta. You can delete the swype apk and the lib file and then goto swype's website to sign up for the beta and download. It won't be themed but it will work as long a you delete both those files first
[Captivate Android Development] 4walls:
OK, thanks... that worked.

I used SUPER MANAGER (my free file manager app) and moved the following files to my ext_sd:

\system\app\Swype.apk

\system\lib\libSwypeCore.so

Then I installed the version 3 Beta and it is not themed but works very well. I went through a little Swype withdrawal for a while... but I am better now :-)

I had a few issues with the Beta not being licensed properly. After I got it licensed, I added "swype.com" and "swypeinc.com" to my hosts file so it would not check again for licenses. Not sure if that is working, but haven't had issues with licensing anymore.

Interesting, I just flashed the final release build and I'll report back on battery life. My battery was pretty good with the "O" kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] sboltman:
Phone battery drops to 99% after disconnect

Battery drop to 99% after removing from charger.

Do I have to do they bump charge exercise and then wip battery stats. The steps outlined in the Phoenix 3.5 site FAQ?

thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:
Mine drops to 98%. Glad you posted this "bump charge" thing..im gonna read up now.
[Captivate Android Development] sboltman:
Adam et. al.: any thoughts on this battery topic below?

I know battery indicator is an issue in 2.2.1, but is it an issue in 2.2 as well?

So did the steps from the FAQ (posted below, bump charge, remove battery stat file), mistakenly went into CWR via ROM Manager (getting blue menu, and signature validation error problem), rebooted, the CWR correct menu showed, and I reset the battery stats.

Rebooted, and then I was at 97%.

Recharged again, and now it drops from 100 to 98 after disconnect.

Oh yeah, I have also ran the SM lagfix (convert to EXT4) and then applied their battery tweak.

Any thoughts?

1.Connect the phone to the charger with the phone powered on, and allow the phone to charge until it shows 100%

2.Disconnect the phone from the charger, and power it off

3.Reconnect the phone to the charger with the phone powered off, and allow the phone to charge until the battery indicator shows 100% (you can use vol-up/vol-down to make the indicator come back up when the screen goes to sleep)

4.Repeat step 1, 2, 3

5.Disconnect the phone from the charger and power it on.

6.Once the phone is powered completely on, power it off again and reconnect it to the charger until the battery indicator shows 100%

7.Disconnect the phone, power it on, and use it

8.Use ADB or a Terminal Emulator to run the following command:

surm /data/system/batterystats.bin9.Reboot into Clockwork recovery, and choose advanced CWM features and select wipe battery stats

100% Battery

Adam et. al.: any thoughts on this battery topic below?

I know battery indicator is an issue in 2.2.1, but is it an issue in 2.2 as well?​

I flashed FF1.5 which is using a 2.2 kernel and had the same issue drop to 98% after bump charge / calibrate. Battery life is still awesome so I figured I can live with 2% and didn't think much more of it.

However...

For grins I thought I would throw the Firebird 2.0 v.03 with no BLN kernel this morning. I was charged up to 100%. After the reboot and lagfix enable, I unplugged and was surprised to see it stay at 100% so I put it down.

20 minutes later after waking up the screen 5 times just to check (no unlock) and unlocking once to make sure sync was still on and watch an email come in, it is still at 100%.

Just reporting my observation... you may want to try flashing FB 2.0 v0.3 no BLN.

My phone is now beyond perfect.:):D

BTW as I hit submit it is still at 100%
[Captivate Android Development] beerbaronstatic:
Speedmod kernel is based on 2.2.1, so it will show up everywhere regardless of ROM, FB2 is based on 2.2, hence you stay at 100%
[Captivate Android Development] raezza:
Speedmod kernel is based on 2.2.1, so it will show up everywhere regardless of ROM, FB2 is based on 2.2, hence you stay at 100%​

Oh okay that makes sense, my bad, sorry about that. Thank you for the clarification.

It still is a pretty good combination.

BTW after 34 minutes it did drop to 99%

Your phone still be 100% charge even though it displays only 99% or 98%.

After 20+ hrs on Cognition 3.02 with speedmod kernel and ZNKP1 modem, with moderate use, I'm still left with 50% of battery life.:)

I don't know if this issue is particular to this ROM, but I noticed that if I answer an incoming call when my headset (earbuds with inline mic) is plugged in and I unplug the headset, the phone completely locks up and requires a battery pull. Happened to me a couple of times already because I don't like answering calls with the headset.

Installed the latest SM kernel (K12P) on top of 1.5 which I had running with SM K12O and Black Market v2.2.7 w/ no problems.

After booting, I noticed Market was green again so I reinstalled Black Market v 2.2.7 again via CWM - but my Market is still green.

Any reason for this or better yet, any way around it?
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
I heard there has been a Market update going around. The reason the Black Market isn't working is because you probably have that new version now. I heard it is v2.2.11 I believe. If I am wrong, someone please correct me.

Is there anyway to use the CM7/MIUI keyboard in FireFly? I tried putting it in system/apps but it's not working.

Hey guys. Excuse my questions, but I'm a Fascinate owner, not a Captivate owner.

I'm going to put this ROM on my fiance's Captivate. She's on a stock ROM that's rooted. Firefly 3.0 includes the radio correct? I'm assuming everything else is the same process that we use over on the Fascinate. Install CWM, wipe, install ROM. Correct? So far, this seems to be correct for this ROM. I know your GB ROMs are different, but this is still a Froyo based ROM if I'm reading everything correctly.
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
Make sure that you download the full firefly 3.0 and not the update package, but other than that you got it.
[Captivate Android Development] sifulee:
*Update*

I copied the LatinIME.apk and libjni_latinime.so from MIUI and put them in their respective folders in firefly with no luck. MIUI keyboard doesn't work :(. Does anyone know if the 2.2 android keyboard will work in firefly? I just really hate the GB keyboard and don't like swype to much either.

*Update 2*

The stock android 2.2 keyboard does work! I have attached them below for anyone interested. :D

I'm getting a message that my Swype trial has expired.

is there a way to get Swype back on my Captivate without re-flashing?. Of course, using Firefly now.
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
Read back a few posts to where I posted how to fix it
[Captivate Android Development] Pudrow:
Same thing happened to me this morning. I read a little bit about it somewhere else and they said don't delete the lib file cause it will save all your custom words. I only deleted the apk, rebooted, and installed the beta but it didn't save my words.

Two questions, I deleted the apk using root explorer and had to change the way it was mounted to delete. What does mount R/W and mount r/o mean?

Also I liked the themed swype a lot better if I want it back do I just have to reflash FF3.0?
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
Mounting something as R/W means you can read AND write in that folder and subsequent folders. When it is R/O (read only), you can't change anything.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
r/o means 'read only' meaning you cant edit it, its set to that as default

r/w means 'read/write' and you guessed means you can edit its contents.

you can try and flash FF again im not sure that will work or not...im leaning towards not as its the same expired one...
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
Here's an idea... before you flash it again, try replacing the swype apk in the ROM zip with the new beta. Then when you flash it, you have the new version. That should work...
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
the beta isnt installed in the same place...and it has to be installed through the installer you download when you sign up to get the new beta...
[Captivate Android Development] ppazz1101:
Got it. Thanks!

RE: Swype problems...

After I deleted the old one and installed the new Beta everything seemed to work OK. Then after a reboot, Swype would continually FC. I had to be quick in between crashes and select the settings on the phone, then disable Swype.

Whenever Swype was enabled, I got the same repeated FC's. So I uninstalled and reinstalled again and then wiped the Dalvic cache.

For now it seems to be working, but here is my question....

In another app (WeatherEye), I have to continually enter my personal data (year of birth and sex) like it is the first time this app has run. Is there an app that I can download to re-enable ads on Firefly? I would then run the WeatherEye app and the registration of Swype (Beta license) then disable the ads on Firefly again.

It seems to me that the ad blocking feature of Firefly is not allowing a cookie (or something similar) to be set and then these two apps act as though they are first-run apps again.
[Captivate Android Development] 4walls:
Swype keyboard (new beta install and troubleshooting)

I think this is what I was referring to "Adfree Android"... do you think this will solve my app issues with the first-run type problems?

I am trying this...

- download "Adfree Android" from market

- run and "revert" the hosts file

- run the weather app and enter birth and sex data again

- run Swype installer (says it's not registered properly), follow instructions for Swype to disable, and re-register and re-enable.

- run "Adfree Android" again and download latest hosts file and enable

- reboot

Results:

- Swype seems to work properly after the reboot (as it did after clearing the dalvic cache)

- WeatherEye app still does the first run routine and asks for user data before going in and showing Weather data.

Thoughts:

Maybe I should revert the hosts file with Adfree Android, then reboot. Then run the WeatherEye app, then run Adfree Android again to load the latest hosts file and reboot again.
[Captivate Android Development] Atomic_R53:
I now get this force close even after adfree android
[Captivate Android Development] 4walls:
Did you reboot and clear the dalvic cache after reverting with Adfree, then install the new beta and re-register it?

I am certainly no expert... but it seems to be working for me now.

[Captivate Android Development] saint168:
I downloaded the SwypeInstaller but I'm not able to disable Swype to install the new version.
[Captivate Android Development] RojasTKD:
This was posted by rquiett several pages back, and it did the trick for me.

You may need a file manager that will allow you do this (rquiett used SUPER MANAGER, I used ROOT EXPLORER). Use your file manager to delete the following files:

\system\app\Swype.apk

\system\lib\libSwypeCore.so

after that you should be able to install the new Swipe Betta.

Enjoy!
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
I actually used root explorer too but I said the spore manager cause its free. Thanks for the props though I appreciate it
[Captivate Android Development] RojasTKD:
No, problem... Just giving credit where it's due.
