Finally did it. Thanks to MikeyMike01 on this one.

White on white subtext fixed in some apps (facebook, heytell, maybe more). Added English (Canada) locale. AND still has the FireFly 2.3 icons (unlike my previous fix which was based on serendipity). Also doesn't give .9 errors :D. Enjoy.

I could do another fix based on the other battery icons on the OP if you guys like. Let me know.

EDIT: screenshots below.

EDIT2: optimized versions with different battery icons posted later in the thread
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
Sweet. Lets make sure this gets into the next version. :)
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Done, it will be in 2.4
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
FireFly 2.3 is awesome. Thanks X, you deserve a lot of props. The app is innovative and brilliant.
[Captivate Android Development] Delicate Donut:
Voodoo lagfix is disabled by default yes?
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
SpeedMod, yes.
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
Going to clean it up a bit more --file size is bigger than it should be. Ill have the rest of the battery icons available in a bit, too.

What exactly does the canadian local fix?

Does it just auto correct words like colour instead of american color?
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
It depends on how the app handles locale settings; your keyboard may not read your system locale settings, but for some apps, they do depend on the locale for some personalization settings. See my post here for details.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Please remove the low battery warning. Wanted to take some quick pictures today, but couldn't because my battery was at 8% :(

[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
Finally finished the framework fixes for the other battery icons, whew. I personally only tested the android dude version, but they should all be built the same way. Let me know if they have issues like boot looping :eek: or missing stock FF icons.

See original post for details on what this fix is.

Instructions: pick a battery icon (ff2-2_frameworkfix is the default firefly battery icon), flash file on CWM. To uninstall fix, just flash one of the battery icons from the OP.

If everything is fine, maybe it will be good enough for the next FireFly update ;)

Update 1: fixed non-FF colouring for the progress bar.

Update 2: re-added some FF 9.pngs. Should be more green/FF-like now. I have questions re: app labels?

Update 3: re-added all remaining ninepatch files (excluding 12 corrupt ones.

framework will now compile cleanly

; this will be good for future FF themers.) removed a supernova wallpaper that wasn't supposed to be there ("defaut_wallpaper.jpg"). large-number-battery will now have same default FF2.2 wallpaper as the rest. submitted to xtremekilla for approval :D
[Captivate Android Development] chinesedevil:
Ah I see, usa locale understands gas station too on google maps, so I guess it's not affecting me much. Appreciatey your hard work for us canadians regardless.

Thanks!

ff2-2_frameworkfix_circle.zip

Confirmed Works.
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
Will applying these reset the home screens?
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:
it didnt reset anything on mine.
[Captivate Android Development] thekamikas92:
Did I need to root my device too use this rom and to over the air system or I can just flash it with AIO captivate tool box 3.0
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
You don't have to root first, but disabling any prior lag fixes is recommended.
[Captivate Android Development] hey_joe:
Like so many people have said already, this is how Samsung should handle support for their phones, fast and direct. Not giving us the ran around.

Really proud of the team's dedication to their work.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] thekamikas92:
And where can wich treads is talking about these fix ? Sorry it's my first time with android... before I was on WM so...
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
Info on the lag fix at the voodoo project's site.
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
With the exception of losing the green, on-press highlights, I can confirm that ff2-2_frameworkfix_largenumber.zip works. ff2-2_frameworkfix.zip works and has the default FF green highlights with the same battery icon.
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
Information on the one included with this ROM (SpeedMod) can be found in its thread here, the developer's Q&A page here, with more info here.
[Captivate Android Development] djnoicatse:
Im having a problem with my phone not going past the FF boot screen. I've had the firefly rom from the very beginning. Anyway i just transfered over some movies from my computer to my phone. After disabling usb storage i decided to reboot my phone and it hasn't gone beyond the FF splash screen. Im getting the 3 vibration as well and then the FF splash would just restart, its been cycling like this for a bit now. Can anyone please help me?

thanks in advance
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
Ah, I see that. It has to do with the 9.png files that I left out, which were giving me errors and bootloops. I'll see what I can do.

EDIT: fixed your issue. please reflash my updated file from the same post.

I noticed there are grey app labels; i coudlve sworn they were transparent before. also, pressing an app will flash an orange bg. wasnt it green before my fix? can anyone confirm? I would like to get these things sorted out
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
Did you yry a battery pull? Sounds like you're stuck in a bootloop. You're most likely gonna have to reflash. Hopefully you have the rom on your SD still.
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
This doesn't happen to have call recording, does it?

(ie: Like the Twingerbread ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=952588)
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
No, it does not. That does seem like a nice feature though. I think you could pull the phone.apk out and stick it into this ROM, in theory.

EDIT: just tried it. doesn't quite work probably; it's pretty buggy (FCs, unresponsive). probably more to it than that.

Couldn't have said it any better.

App Drawer issue

I have an issue that occurred before but a reboot has always remedied the problem. I'll boot my phone, go into the app drawer and none of my apps will display. Well, this morning, when I re-booted my phone, the apps were still not displayed in the drawer. I re-booted again and the same thing happened.

Anyone else experienced this before? Know of a fix besides re-flashing?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] djnoicatse:
Tried the battery pull. I don't have the rom on my sd anymore!!! What's my next option?
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:
When you boot up it stays on the bootloop still?
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
You're going to have to re-flash starting with odin I would say.
[Captivate Android Development] djnoicatse:
When I boot up it'll go pass the i896 and i897 screen. Then when on the FF screen it looks like its doing its business, after a couple of seconds there will be the 3 vibration sequence and then the FF screen will restart.
[Captivate Android Development] djnoicatse:
Thats what I think I may have to do. I think im gonna borrow my GFs laptop to download the FF 2.3 zip and drag it over to my external sd card since I have the adapter. Try and flash through recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:
If you can get to recovery do that..I've done that many times ...
[Captivate Android Development] djnoicatse:
Yeah I tried the 3 button combo last night and it worked. Just occurred to me this morning to download the rom to my external sd. Anyway im gonna give it a try. Hopefully it fixes the issue. Wish me luck!!!
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
If you can get to recovery try wipe your dalvik cache and see if it helps.
[Captivate Android Development] djnoicatse:
Just tried that and the same outcome.
[Captivate Android Development] djnoicatse:
Should I download the 2.2 to 2.3 update zip? If im going to reflash.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Might as well and see if it works
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:
i'd say just do the 2.3 zip ... since your going to reflash..
[Captivate Android Development] dstech:
I noticed that sometimes when going from an app back to home, I cannot slide the screen, as if the screen its unresponsive. It happens for about three seconds.
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:
have you enabled the Spare Apps Window/Transition animations? that may help.
[Captivate Android Development] dstech:
Thanks I'll try that. I have all animations turned off right now.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
I wouldn't use the 2.3 update.zip if you are doing a full flash. To use it you would have to install the 2.2 and then the update folder to 2.3. That is two chances of something going wrong (not saying it will) and since you are having to reflash, either from your external sd or if that doesn't work you will have to odin. You are gonna have to flash at least one thing, may as well be the full 2.3.

Good luck.
[Captivate Android Development] thekamikas92:
Thank you for the quick reply ! I last question, is it working on the Rogers captivate 2.2 ?
[Captivate Android Development] Devo7v:
I think I found a bug. I flashed to stock and rooted. I installed My Tracks and it worked fine, except for the obvious GPS issues. Then I installed Firefly 2.3. I set up a google account so I could access the market. I installed My Tracks from the Market and tried to run it. My Tracks brings up the licensing agreement and pressing Accept causes a force close. My Tracks us unusable.

As stated above, the only thing I've done is set up a google account and install My Tracks, everything else is stock Firefly. My Tracks will not run, is anybody else having this problem? Can this be fixed?
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
If you haven't done it yet, I would recommend putting both update and full version on there. Try the update first, since it sounds like a framework error. If it doesn't work you'll be able to do the full install, but that would wipe all apps.

Btw, did you install any themes?

Try going into maps first, then to tracks. People have reported that helping for both tracks and navigation

I downloaded the 2.3 zip to my external sd card. But when I go into recovery I cant get into the external sd. It says no zip.
[Captivate Android Development] redger725:
I've never used My Tracks, but I downloaded just to see if it worked for me. It had the same problem with me. Crashed when I went to accept the license.

In recovery you can go to advanced options and mount the internal sd to your computer. Then copy files and unmount.

[Captivate Android Development] Devo7v:
No good. I still have the same problem.
[Captivate Android Development] djnoicatse:
Hey can anyone upload FF 2.3 file for odin. Seems this is the only way I can reflash.
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
Yes. Although SpeedMod was originally made for the i9000, a version was made for use with the Captivates (AT&T & Rogers). When installing or applying any changes to your phone, always make sure it's compatible with your device. FireFly is a ROM made for the Captivate (from Rogers Froyo) and comes with the Captivate compatible SpeedMod. After you flash FireFly, SpeedMod is disabled by default, so you will have to enable it manually using the instructions on the link I provided you if you want to apply its lagfix. If you don't have much installed on your device, it's pretty snappy already without it enabled.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
I don't believe there is an Odin flashable version only a clockwork version.
[Captivate Android Development] wilsongis:
I am working on a general port for any rom
[Captivate Android Development] dstech:
What worked for me was manually installing an old version 1.0.15 of my tracks, opening it them updating it using market.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
You mean the lagfix is disabled by default.

For me, lagfix is enabled by default. Maybe because I've had it enabled before prior to flashing.

What do you guys use to track the GPS signal?
[Captivate Android Development] djnoicatse:
thanks got it to finally work!!!
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
Yeah 1.1 valle honeycomb theme has a phone APK that has call recording button when on call but it just causes a FC for me so I've started at 0.7 theme for now.

FF must need the feature added I guess?

maybe an optional add on as it may take up resources.
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
SpeedMod's lagfix is disabled by default. If you had it already enabled prior to upgrading FF, it will stay enabled unless you reformat.
[Captivate Android Development] Devo7v:
Can you post version 1.0.15 of My Tracks? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

EDIT: I was able to find the apk here and it ran fine. The only problem is when I upgraded it forced closed whenever I tried to load one of my saved tracks. Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] dstech:
Doh!, I never tried that. I'd say don't use the latest version of mytracks. Try all the earlier versions until you find the one that force closes, then go back a version.

I'll try doing the same and see what I turn up. Thanks for the heads up.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
FF must need the feature added I guess?

I think I read somewhere on this thread that x took it out of ff because of the legal issues, in some states its illegal to record a call without both parties knowledge, he didn't want to catch any poo for someone getting in trouble with his rom.
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
Well, optional call recording add on then maybe? Unless that is a risk to X also. Im worried I will accidently press the button and mess up an important call.
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
Is this FC my tracks issue because of this ROM? Or is because of the newest update of my tracks?
[Captivate Android Development] caanda45:
First real post here for me in xda just added my first rom and of course it is FF, can you send me the link for the SpeedMod to enable it. Also the rom seems fast what kind of benchmark can I use to see how fast my phone is. I used quadrent with the one clic lag fix prior to adding the rom and it said the phone was blazing fast.....but reading here I hear negative comments about quadrent etc. My quadrent in FF is about 1060 to 1100. So any direction would be appreciated.

Fantastic rom and thanks to all the experts here that have gotten me this far!!!
[Captivate Android Development] dstech:
Not sure yet, I'm going to try some earlier versions to see if they work, and if they do I'm guessing it's due to the latest update.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Speedmod is the kernel that comes with this ROM, boot into CWM recovery and go to speedmod advanced ULK options and enable the lagfix and then go into the tweak menu and enable anything that has an R by it.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Depends on provincial and federal legislation. Up here in Ontario (or Canada), as long as one party knows about the call being recorded, then it is perfectly legal even if the other party doesn't know about it.

Does anyone find that the Captivate slows down considerably after 2 days of use, whether it was heavy or light usage? I noticed it on every ROM I flashed, including stock. I think it's due to the poor memory management in Froyo because as of right now, I have 58MB of RAM remaining. Doing a Level 1 Task Clearing doesn't help. If I reboot the phone, I usually have 156MB of free RAM remaining, then throughout the day it'll drop to 89MB of RAM.
[Captivate Android Development] caanda45:
jhernand1102 thanks worked like a charm and now is even faster than before!!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Devo7v:
The latest version I was able to get working was 1.0.15, anything after that caused force closes. I'm pretty sure this is a Firefly issue, because I was able to flash back to stock and the latest version of My Tracks worked fine, no force closes. Hopefully x can take a look at this issue, I use My Tracks a lot when I'm biking and I'd like to be able to use the latest version.
[Captivate Android Development] dstech:
Same here, only could get 1.0.15 to work.
[Captivate Android Development] dstech:
I noticed a minor issue with the dialer contacts icon at the top. The lower half of the word "contacts" is not visible. I tried the orange dialer too and it has the same issue.

Great ROM! Thanks for the work on this!
[Captivate Android Development] steelechamp:
Probably a super noob question but.... Could I flash this to my AT&T Captivate without wrecking it? Do you think it would screw around with cell phone signals?
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Yes it has something to do to when he switched them to work on multidpi or something like that. If you want I have the regular version of the GB black dialer that I can upload for you that doesn't have that issue, As long as you don't tweak your screen DPI it will be fine.
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:
Lol...strange question..but no you can't wreak it if you flash this rom. If anything, my signal improved.
[Captivate Android Development] dstech:
That would be awesome. PM, email, our make out available here please!
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Here you go, flash with CWM recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] caanda45:
When we flash a rom what apn settings are used? In FF as it is based on the Rogers Captivate are the Canadian apn`s used? Just want to know if I use another Rom what will happen......this flashing is getting addictive!!!! Additional question, if I added some small add ons from the x`s first post, example the toggle switchs or the large battery icon and flashed by cwm, how would I remove them if I wanted to?
[Captivate Android Development] dstech:
Big thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
If anything you will likely get better signal due to the fact you have a good choice of modems you can try on the Cappy.

Microphone sensitivity reduced with 3.5mm audio out plugged into car stero

Tried searching around a bit but couldn't get a clear answer or solution...

This happens once in awhile and I guess it was more prevalent when I have a custom rom/kernel, but what happens is when I put my phone on my phone cradle (NOT SAMSUNG CRADLE, JUST A HOLDER) and plug in my stereo 3.5mm jack to my phone to run sound and calls through my car speakers, the person on the other end has a hard time hearing me. I have to literally lean over my steering wheel and yell into.

This also happens when I try doing a voice search, I have to scream at it for commands like "Get directions to gas station" if I talk normally, I doesn't even register my voice.

I am assuming that this is a kernel/rom problem because when I had my stock Captivate, I would never have a voice problem at all, but then again, I never had voice actions to begin with.

HOWEVER, I do remember when I first started with Cognition 3.5, I never had this problem, but with firefly/phoenix, I do.

Anyone have an idea?
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
You had the problem with Phoenix as well but not Cognition? My first thought would be to try another kernel. I recommend the latest SuckerPunch Voodoo kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
APN's need to be set according to the carrier the user is with. In order to reverse a flashed modification, you would just need to flash the original. I don't believe the default toggle icons have been provided though. We'll have to get someone to create a flashable file for them. And fyi, most of the mods can be downloaded through the FF mods and fixes app included in FF2.3.
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
The "Contacts" button is different from the others in the original blue version, but the word is not cut off.
[Captivate Android Development] weenrock:
Yeah it was weird, I was doing some poking around and I think the speedmod kernel included actually reduces the sensitivity. You know a way to tinker with it or raise the levels?
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
Apn's: easy solution when flashing ROMs. Market: apn backup and restore...when you restore all your apps with TiBu just flash the apn settings that you saved from your previous rom/stock. If you do lose them just do a search in the forums, they are plastered multiple times in different threads.
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
Balls, I tried to flash "Remove_samsungapps_FF.zip" from the FF mods and fixes app and it's frozen at "Installing update..." It doesn't look like it made any progress, so I'm contemplating whether or not to do a battery pull. Suggestions?

EDIT: Held vol. up + power to reboot recovery from the frozen install screen, rebooted the system, and reinstalled the Samsung apps version I had (from 2.2). When I tried applying the removal, it froze again, so I tried flashing the newer samsung apps zip from the ff app and it froze as well.

EDIT 2: I reapplied the FF 2.2-2.3 upgrade to fix the "about phone" info and tried flashing the new samsung apps zip again and it froze again.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
crap forgot... As for the call recording that we are speaking of: xtreme, would it be too much to ask for an add-on of sorts. This is really important for me and I havn't been able to find a market app that wasn't a huge POS. If it can be done, thanks in advance... as always, you are awesome.

Being Canadian is great...we can record anyone we want as long as one party knows about it ... just one of the perks. Free downloading of all sorts of crap too... no RIAA to hunt us down hehe :)
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
No I do not. I don't use SpeedMod anymore. Suckerpunch Voodoo is the kernel I use now. You may want to give it a shot.
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
Finalized (I hope) my framework fix. Try it out if you have white on white text issues in some apps or if you want the en-ca locale or if you're a themer.
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:

Alright, I'm determined to find a way to extend my battery life. During the 7 hours of sleep I managed to get last night, my battery drained 12%. I had HSPA, sync, Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth disabled. When I checked battery usage, it showed no drain from apps running in the background. Could it be the modem?

[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
Ok so I figured i'd give the Dark Fire Blue theme a whirl becuase I need to flash something :p

Anyone flashed this yet? Thoughts? Any issues with it?
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
No problems with it. I used it while I was running SN but now I am running FF with Nun's Renewal theme because I am a fan of green.
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
So I flashed it. Alot of blue, may have to flash the stock theme back. Dunno yet, may hang with it for a day.
