I've had someone ask me about this.

If I have my phone in USB debugging mode, then use my USB cord to connect to my laptop, in 6.0 my phone will automatically be mounted as a USB mass storage device on my laptop.

If I am in debugging mode and I use my stock Samsung wall plug (USB cord and plug combo) there is no problem. Of course. Just like it's supposed to be. Whether the phone is on or off.

AC

power from the wall.

What I was talking about was I had stopped and picked up one of those Rocketfish deals where you just have the

DC

plug that goes in the lighter socket. You can plug your own USB cable into that plug then into your phone to charge.

When I plugged into that thing, it had my phone mount as a USB mass storage device. To what, I don't know. I suppose it's possible that by turning USB debugging off, you can eliminate that event. I really don't know. I do know that I won't be using that plug again. I don't care for how that thing works.

I am using seidio extended battery and i'm 2 days into paragon 6 and battery is outstanding! I cant give full details as far as usage is concerned but I will post a screenshot later today. I am using auto brightness on, auto rotate off, wifi off, launcher pro, nexus live wallpaper, auto sync and background data on and email set to push. I am also running overclocked at 1200mhz with minor uv settings on noop. I do use superpower but at the rate i am going i should see at least 10hrs of screen on time. Also on a side note i am having an issue with gps. I only see 3 satellites with zero lock. I know its not my phone because on other roms i am able to see 9 satellites with lock and 5-10m accuracy.

This is one of my biggest complaints with custom ROMs. I don't understand why it's changed in so many ROMs.

It is possible to get back to the status/incall screen by going to the notification menu and clicking the green phone icon.... *NOTE TO DEVELOPERS* This method is still pretty silly just to end a call. I've tried Cog, FF, ParaG, and Andromeda and Andromeda is the only ROM that seems to go to this incall screen when you are on a call on click the "Phone" app.
[Captivate Android Development] Dante04SRT:
Thanks for the link - Do I just sideload the apk? After that, how can I actually select it on the phone?

Any other 6.1 tidbits youd like to share espyel? :)
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Based on all the feedback and talk about themes and colors, I think it would be better to dedicate a thread in the Themes section for Paragon. A couple questions here and there are OK, but since there is so much, someone should open a thread titled something with Paragon in it so all Paragon users can go there instead of cluttering this thread. I'm guilty, so I'll wait till that thread is opened and go from there. Just a suggestion to help keep the Dev thread on track and progressing.

I'm not supposed to say anything, but I've heard from a reliable source that in 6.1, the boot splash screen is going to look like this. The real miracle is that the grenade is actually functional.

[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
Thats just hilarious! The fact is that Paragon has become so perfect that all thats left to talk about is personal preferences in color and theming. :) The actual rom and its usability is just unparalleled
[Captivate Android Development] deanhatescoffee:
I'm not sure if this is a theme related issue or not but I'm using the Valle-Mod theme and I don't have any problems using the Dialpad in the Active Call screen and then pressing the Hide button to make it go away. If you're on a call and you go to the Home screen and then go into the Phone app, you have access to the dialpad there as well as your call logs. When you pull the Notification Tray down, you can press the green phone button to go back to the call menu or press the red End button to end the call. I don't see this as a detriment, I see it as a benefit because the call logs are still accessible. So, to me, I don't see the issue. Am I missing something?

Best Rom Yet!!!

I have used every single rom posted on this board and I liked a lot of them. I have to say RC5 sucked and it almost bricked my phone. I switched back to Cog 3 and then 4 came out and I loved 3 so I went to 4. Cog 4 was just not up to where it needed to be. Battery life sucked and I was only getting 6-9 hours from it.

I saw RC6 drop and I said ok what the hell. Try it out and if it sucks them I am ditching the cappy and going with the new htc insight or motorola atrix.

SO i charged up the phone, did an odin clear and then flashed the rc6 build of paragon. I left just about everything to the default for everything. I added my work email (push turned on) my 2 other gmail accounts and also had a live background and facebook and twitter set to check every 30 minutes.

I used the phone all day at work, checked facebook, surfed the web, emailed about 50 times and took 10 minutes of video and streamed 4 hours or sirius radio. I g0t home 12 hours after I unplugged it from the charger and I was only on 53%. I used it all night and it finally died on my way back to work the next day after 27 hours of use.

I thought it was a fluke so I beat it up again for 2 more days and each day I was getting around 20 hours or so of use.

This is the best rom yet for the cappy. I dont think I will flash another rom unless something better comes out. DOubt that will happen.
[Captivate Android Development] Dante04SRT:
I think Samsung must use some cheap ass crap inside their phones for everyone to have such different results from a ROM.

I flashed RC6 last night and went to bed - I left the WiFi on as usual - no apps running. I went to bed with 70% battery - Woke up 8 hours later and I was at 37% battery!

I flashed to Cog 4.1 this morning and though everything seems solid, my GPS SUCKS NOW.

I'll probably be back to RC again, but I want to wait until the colored icons come back - There's something lacking to me with the dull monochromatic menu icons.
[Captivate Android Development] davwman:
Last rom im flashing until cm7 is released and stable and i might just consider keeping paragon.
[Captivate Android Development] SmithEC:
I hate to do it to you, but rather than answer your question I'm going to give you a "why don't you just do this?" response.

I can't re-create the issue because I am not using the stock dialer. You might simply try using a different dialer. I really, really like the one you can find in post #3304 in this thread. With it, you can do anything you want. Pics at the bottom of this response.

It is odd that the Captivate is supposed to be a telephone, yet the dialer may be just about the quirkiest element contained in the phone.

I don't use the stock dialer because the Contacts button is not perfect. It almost never is. This is not a complaint; it is simply an observation.

I had an odd experience messing with my phone before RC6.0. I downloaded one of the Xtreme dialers that you find referenced in this thread. Absolutely did not like it. Installed Dialer One over that. What was odd was that in Dialer One, I could enter the character sequence required to bring up LbsTestMode. As soon as I hit SEND, the Xtreme dialer would pop up. It's possible that I could have entered the sequence again and gotten to LbsTestMode, but that would be silly and I just didn't care that much about it.

If you were to download that dialer in post #3304, you would find that not everything within that dialer will auto-rotate. Personally, I don't have a problem with that. I think it's the perfect dialer.

This to address just the issue you mention. If you leave the dialer completely and want to come back to it, you will have to use the notification bar as has been mentioned in response to someone else's problem over these past few posts.

It's possible that I misunderstand your question.

Mililani? I was stationed on Kaneohe for three and a half years. The last half year was legal-hold. Had a little problem at the Moose McGillicudy's on Lewers St. in Honolulu.

I have a 6.1 update ready to go. All it does is replaces colored settings icons and the colored icons on the extended power menu.

Also, I just flashed bentonhall's orange theme...looks fantastic! The boot animation is awesome too!
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
those icons are located in the twframework-res.apk right? So I just need to replace the twframework-res.apk in the modified red/black theme I'm trying to put together to get the colored icons in the extended power menu without messing up anything else?
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
They are in framework-res.apk. ic_lock* and zzzzzz_ic_lock*
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Alright works for me :D
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
Any time frame untill us little people can access 6.1:rolleyes: also where can I get that orange theme?
[Captivate Android Development] switters1:
my sentiments exactly! paragon 6 blows everything else out of the water. it matches the speed of the best out there but it brings unparalleled battery life to the table.

the big mystery to me is why paragon 5 killed my battery and i had to switch to 3 until 6 came out. oh well. Some mysteries dont need to be solved.

i'm definitely set now on paragon 6 until CM7 or some other stable gingerbread variant comes out.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I want a Paragon GB ROM ;o
[Captivate Android Development] bunnsguy:
just gotta say this is the first Paragon that I actually like...UI is awesome now :)
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
You will lose the themed notification bar and checkboxes in settings but the pulldown will still be themed unless it includes the twframework-res.apk in which case you will lose the whole theme except for the bootanimation and the themed keyboard unless he worked some magic.

Those themes were based off of 6.0 not 6.1, so if you flash the update then flash any of the themes it will put the grey icons back.

I could make a themed version with the colored icons I suppose.

EDIT: I just flashed the update on top of the orange theme and now am half orange and half green, so if the colored settings are important to you, flash the default green theme and then flash the update. That way you will be back to stock theme with colored icons.
[Captivate Android Development] GTIVRon:
So somebody asked for screen shots of when I start customizing my stuff around.. not really happy with the theme because of notifications having that white background, and check boxes turning white. So I'll most likely have a different theme running soon.

I also need a widget that shows signal strength then ill get rid of the notification dock bar thing up top.

I'll be going on a business trip and be there all week so I wont be finished for a while...

On to the pictures..

If my dock confuses people.. basically what you see in red happens when I tap on it. What you see in white happens when I slide on it. Using launcher pro plus.

I have some other wallpapers for 2 more screens. But they may not be appropriate to post lol. My main screen wallpaper changes between what you see there and an edited version of my cars grill with the chrome VW and red GTI text.

I also need a good icon for unread text and email counts on my lockscreen.

Stock GPS settings for RC6?

I tried Plumbob's GPS fix to see if it improved my GPS but it was better with the stock RC6 settings. Could either a flashable zip be created or simply list what needs to be done such as pull the \etc\jupiter.xml from the .zip, update settings in LBS test mode, etc?

Edit: I guess I can try the following > take plumbob's flashable zip and replace all the files within using the files from the corresponding RC6 files, flash it again and then set the lbs test (supl secure socket to off and op mode to standalone rather than MS based) - those are the changes I manually did after flashing plumbob's file per the instructions.

Are there any changes to make in LBS Test mode such as op mode, etc when trying 5.1? Are those changes made by the zip files?

Whats the verdict on lagfix? Enable or disable? Read OP and back about 10 pages and didnt see anything.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I think it's just personal preference. One guy swears up and down he doesn't experience any differences between them. I personally just like the way ext4 looks/sounds more then the others.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
What type of impact on battery life has anyone notice with the lagfix enabled?
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
Voltage Control 3.x update

I had problems too but finally got it to work. I was going to uninstall but it didn't show up. I deleted the .apk from \system\app via root explorer, rebooted, and installed via the market.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Oops didn't mean to thank. Way to tired... I don't see why there should be any kind of impact on battery life regardless which you use since it's just a file system. It'd be like saying Windows 98 Uses more power then Windows XP because 98 uses the FAT32 file system while XP uses the NTFS.
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
The changes you may have to make in LBS Test mode with Paragon 6.0, coming from PlumBob's GPS fix are: Operation is Standalone and SUPL Socket is OFF. Not sure if this will be done once you flash it. You may have to manually change those settings.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Reason I asked if lagfix impacted battery life was I read in another thread it did. Doesn't make sense to me either...kinda ntfs versus fat. Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] androidpwns:
I have experienced slightly better battery life by disabling the lagfix. I'm back on this ROM yet again after trying many others and it's pretty obvious that this is the best one available.

It turns out that the lag I had been experiencing when using previous versions of this ROM were due to either my Titanium backups or the Titanium Backup app itself... I have since stopped using this app (using MyBackup Root now) and have been lag free ever since!
[Captivate Android Development] color0:
Certain filesystems implement more write/read cycles per piece of data you put into storage -- for example, EXT4 has a journaling system that isn't present in EXT2, and so the net result I've observed is that EXT2 is both faster and offers better battery life than EXT4. On the other hand, EXT4 is (in theory at least) more disaster-proof than its EXT2 predecessor, and so most devs gravitate towards EXT4 for lagfixes.

After a couple days on this ROM, I think I'm gonna stay with it for a while; idle battery drain *was* good even with HSPA enabled (3% per 5 hours) and the drain on wifi is lower than others. Speed is, of course, not an issue, what with the 1.2GHz overclock -- easily hitting 2300 on Quadrant right now, maxing out the FPS to 56 in every 3D graphics benchmark. The RC6 kernel is really something, great work eSPyeL. :)

I do say *was*, however, because the drain has jumped up significantly today. I lost 8% in 2 hours doing nothing with the phone. Not sure what's happening there but I suspect is has to do with an LP widget acting up, since that's the only change I made today. Anyone else with a sudden battery drain jump?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I see. Well there was another lagfix out that involved loops from what I understand which could have required more processing power.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I am aware of that, but I figured the additional power usage would be negligible at most. Didn't know the difference between EXT2 and EXT4 though. Might give EXT2 a try later.

Wish I could give you a magic fix for that, but the battery drain on my phone has never been all that great. However Paragon's the best it's ever been.
[Captivate Android Development] gospeedgo:
2nd full day with RC6. I reset battery stats, then ran the phone down yesterday, then recharged over night.

Here are the results for the day:

Unplugged for 12 hrs 35 minutes - 45% left.

Display 84% on for 2 hrs, 37 secs

wifi 9% on for 12 hrs 35 mins

cell standby 6% on for 12 hrs 35 mins

phone idle 3% on for 10 hrs 35 mins

This also included running stability test for 1 hour 10 minutes for 51 passes.

Not running overclocked but -50mV across the board.

I'm pretty sure I could let it sit all night and still have juice left in the morning, but need the alarm to go off, so not taking the chance.

Awesome battery life, loving the ROM.

If I could pick anything for a future release, it would be a stock theme.

I may be the only one, but I really like the stock theme. I do like the Android unlock screen though, and the extended power menu. I just mean the colors and such. I like how colorful it is. I appreciate all the work that's put into the themes, don't get me wrong. I like changing every once in a while. I just wish that one of them I could change to would be stock.

Thanks for the great work on this ROM!

Couple of things I've been wondering about and would appreciate some help from those who know - First, is the update.zip file that comes with rom zip the same as the the CWM update.zip file? The reason I ask is that when I reboot into recovery, the phone freezes... then, after a battery pull, it reboots to recovery mode as it should. It has done this when I've downloaded either the I-9000 and the Captivate CWM Recovery file and has done this through the last 2 full back-to-stock, clear, upgrades. It's not the end of the world - just hate pulling the battery. Thanks for any help. Congrats to eSPyeL for putting together a fantastic rom. 46D80872PA3641356

If I flash Paragon to my wife's captivate can I uninstall Voltage Control, Voodoo Control and LCDDensity? I don't want her tinkering with them and breaking the phone - she's not very technically minded.

I put the official ATT Froyo on her phone at the weekend and was disappointed to see no BT voice dialing. I'm a happy Paragon user since RC3, so I'd like her to see what it can do for her phone too.

Thanks very much to the OP for all his great work!

Try using the app with the compatibility mode...it fixes almost everything I got.
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
compatibility mode?
[Captivate Android Development] aaronv89:
shaolin is referring to an app on the market called "LCD Density Changer". It's a paid app that has does pretty much the same thing with the added benefit of making whatever density you prefer to the default value for your phone AND a comptability mode option.

I don't use it myself, the compatability mode never seemed to work for me. And if I want to change the default density of my phone I just open up the appropriate system file and do it manually.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
There is a paid version of LCD Density that has a compatibility mode that you just need to check,

uncheck

then reboot and it fixes many of the issues. Not sure if this is the same as the compatibility mode of Spare Parts.

Contact syc?

Two days now enjoying the Rom, Thanks!

Only question I have is the sync feature in contacts with FB. I like the Activities and Media sync that used to sync from FB. Is that feature gone on everyones or just mine? Contacts sync to contacts in phone but contact widgets do not get pix just info. I've tried three different contact widgets. Same problem with the social hub app that is included in the rom, no FB sync.

Is it just me?
