Best Rom So Far

Thx for the great rom. My flashing hx is Cog -> Andromeda -> Perception -> Di11i -> Paragon. This is just godly. Superfast OC/UV at 1200 with great battery life > 24 h. Blue theme posted in the thread and new electro boot animation by Shaolin are just icing on the cake.

I would say overall di11i's rom and this are almost identical in terms of performance. I had home screen button auto flicker issue with di11i and andromeda but not with paragon. I know this is a some what rare bug with some phones but still now the cappy is perfect. Battery is also better with the UV stuff. Lets see if it holds up. I really don't want to flash no more. :)
[Captivate Android Development] CapnPez:
This one is for Samuel L. Jackson and anyone else who likes purple.

Enjoy (same one as before, just purple-ish).

Can someone post a screenshot of one of the colors/stock im curious
[Captivate Android Development] Jengle:
I upgraded from 5.1 to 6.0. I don't see any record button or menu item to record calls. Nor do I see the rotary unlock as mentioned in the change log. Do I need to flash as a new install to get these features?
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
I used the update file to go from 5.0 to 6.0, and I have both of those features...
[Captivate Android Development] xelaboy:
Probably need to go back to stock, then flash. They are definitely there.
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
How would i go about replacing ONLY the paragon espyel screen with the electro paragon?
[Captivate Android Development] jayjr1105:
So could someone explain exactly what the theme packs change? Some screenshots would be very useful. Also, are they flashable now with cwm? And can you revert back? Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] scuba_d:
your links in the op don't work. they keep the .... in them instead of parsing out. but the ones in post #3733 work, just to give you the heads up
[Captivate Android Development] Chargerdude70:
Forgive me if this has been address before. This is my first try at this rom. I am on stock RC6 with the red theme. Has anyone had an issue with phone rebooting after ending a call? This was a FTS install.
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
The only difference between the colors/stock and colors/black is the settings menus and the extended power menus. Some didn't like the look of the black and white settings menu and the gray and white extended power menus. These basically puts it back to the way stock froyo looks with different color icons. If you look at the OP, the 6th picture down is the Extended Menus, that is how they will look if you flash one of the color/stock themes. The menus will have similar icons with a black background.
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
I'll be creating a thread for this and posting screen shots. It basically changes the boot animation, the colors of the menus and extended menus from either black and white to stock froyo look, the color of the gingerbread keyboard, the colors in the notification bar and pulldown, checkboxes and radio buttons and so forth.

If you have the default look of Paragon now and flash any of these themes and want to revert, simply flash the default/black to go back to the way eSPyeL built RC6. Yes, they are CWM flashable.
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
Just want to thank you for all your work.. installed the orange/stock. nice to see the color back. this phone can do such nice graphics and such it just felt like it was missing without the color..
[Captivate Android Development] jayjr1105:
Thanks for the info. I flashed the green/stock one and it looks much better. Now if only I could get the green progress bars and notification boxes back like rc5 that would rock.
[Captivate Android Development] TechNut*:
Ok so I just noticed that my rotary lock seems to display at an angle.. is that what its supposed to do?

Or should it be level with the bottom of the screen??

As always thanks for any feedback, am just curious.
[Captivate Android Development] jayjr1105:
My only visual complaints with rc6...

Appreciate all the hard work creating the perfect rom guys.
[Captivate Android Development] k818mn1:
I tried the blue/stock theme but I also prefer the green/stock - the green is easier to see against the black background. I'd also vote for the progress bars matching the theme color instead of the gray that came in at RC6.

Request recap

Spent some time going thru the thread since eSPyel made his request and I found (so far, the post starts on page 237, I have gone to 273) 14 (aprox) separate requests (obviously there were repeats). Since this is such a fast moving thread I thought maybe, a recap of requests might be of some use. (Figured that even if eSPyel was/is interested in trying to fulfill every ones fantasies, who can keep them all in mind. So here goes)

1) Record option

Done!

post #2367

2) non ascending ring volume #2369

3) USB Debugging default

Done!

#2372

4) Miui Music player

Done!

#2372

5) Stay awake when plugged in #2373

6) Circle battery with color change #2379

7) programmable signal strength indicators #2379

8)TXT Button instead of voicemail in keypad #2384

(I believe if you hold down 1 it goes to voice mail seems a redundant button)

9) volume control links #2421

10) new kernal boot logo #2155

11) contact icon match #2463

12) jack up vibrate #2490

13) 2g/3g toggle

Done!

#2533

14) paragon should pay all the bills, and a girl of dreams.....;) #2393

15) color icons from stock

Done!

Hope this is helpfull.
[Captivate Android Development] xdahgary:
eSPyeL, what do you think about using existz's memory script in your kernels?
[Captivate Android Development] jayjr1105:
I really liked the old lock screen compared to the new. Sorry if I am coming across super picky about rc6... just figured I'd voice my opinion about some of the new eye candy or lack there of to give some input and see if others agree. Really appreciate everything eSPyeL and all other contributers have done with this rom.

Old...

New...
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
love that video but i would own an iphone before i would own an evo. my experience with the evo is that dispite the high res claims it takes really crappy pictures, it has no 3d processing abilities (check some 3d benchmarks on the evo, they suck) the ffc is useless because the phone cant process video fast enough and you never get a fast internet connection. my friend cant even get a good video call over wifi and has tried a number of apps. sprints network sux, 3g is typically 600kbps, i can get closae to that on edge. 4g in basically non existant in new york as far as i can tell. and there can be problems surfing the web and talking on the phone at the same time. the screen looks washed out and i have repaired one, the construction scares me, it is built like a child's toy. cheap plastic and an even cheaper main board.

atleast i can take great pics with a captivate and take it apart and think, WOW they built this phone solid. other galaxy phones may look cheap with the slip cover battery doors but at least they weren't dumb enough to put antennas in it, (cough aria cough incredible cough cough) but the frame is solid and the plastics are sturdy.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
Agreed. This will be fixed.
[Captivate Android Development] coderunner:
I think the reason it is like that is because its is made to run with the LCD density set to 180.

I would like to request a flashable zip to fix the rotary lock screen so we can use it with stock LCD Density settings.
[Captivate Android Development] noside12123:
eSpYel I do have some must have requests in the next RC,

1. Kill Battery Full Notification ( I saw it was done on Cognition)

2. Add Stay Awake option (Settings>Applications>Development)

3. Change the menus back to color

4. And the download bars and all back to some color instead of grey.

Other than that, this is a great ROM!!! Thanks!

EdIT: Sorry if i repeated some stuff. But i do think nobody had wanted to get rid of that Batter Full notification.
[Captivate Android Development] cobeebs:
Even with some of the commets regarding color, THIS IS A GREAT ROM.

I mean really, all there is to complain about is some color? I prefer the color download bars and menus with color icons too, but hey, THIS IS A GREAT ROM!

Thanks eSpYel!
[Captivate Android Development] TechNut*:
Hmmm.... ok makes sense.. I like this rom stock myself..thanks Coderunner, I appreciate your input. Maybe it will be fixed for those that love the rom in stock. :)
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
For point #3, you can flash the default/stock theme and you will have the Paragon default green look with the colored menu's and extended menu's instead of the black/gray look.

For point #4, I can address this with the themes. Will work on tweaking them once I get the other colors I'm working on finished.
[Captivate Android Development] Jengle:
: dummy: first, I swear I read the entire user guide. I thought the rotary dial would be with the rest of the security options. Nope - in the display options. Also, I was expecting the record option to be on the screen initiating calls, not the in-process call screen.

However, I did successfully return to stock, master clear, install 6.0, re-themed, and added the red extreme dialer. : grin:

Thanks for your help and patience.
[Captivate Android Development] k818mn1:
Yes, you are right. In my business (military aircraft avionics design) you know you have a good design when the only thing to complain about is the color. Everyone has their own opinion about color. We say that if you ask two pilots for their opinion, you will receive four or five.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Any eta on the purple theme bettonhall? Im using red and have tried all of the other ones and a purple one just seems like it would be sick
[Captivate Android Development] Dash305:
I've been lurking on XDA for a couple of years now (since the Kaiser days).. Never really felt the need to ask a bunch a questions, when a simple search has always found me the answers that I've been looking for (Hence the low post count)... But,... I have to give credit when credit is due!!!... Thank you eSPyel for this Freaking Amazing ROM!!!

I've tried several others... and I really liked Precision 2.0 for awhile... Paragon RC5.1 was pretty awesome as well,... but since updating to 6.0 last week.... all I can say is ..Wow..

6.0 is... fast, fluid, extremely stable OC'd @ 1.2Ghz all day,... Battery life is decent, GPS is decent... pretty sick transitions.. love the red theme..

To show my Gratitude ----> 9HE12660XX9002337 ... Buy yourself a 6-pack on me!.. lol

I've added a couple of touches to the Red Theme... Almost have it perfect... Just wish that I could get some Black and Red glass icons for the apps.. -->

Now that you have Paragon running so perfect.... My only suggestion would be to start making it a little more "lightweight".... For example:

(again only my personal suggestion)

- Delete the music player... I think a lot of people have their own preference for music players..

- Delete Daily Briefing, Social Hub, Places.... Who uses these?

Other than that..... Keep up the Great work!
[Captivate Android Development] CapnPez:
more bootanimations

Two more bootanimations I put together tonight. It's a play on the Paramount logo. One is black on a white background and the other is inverted.
[Captivate Android Development] mm01:
I agree with the music player (doubletwist os far superior imo but not as integrated. ) however, I do use daily briefing. I love waking up at 4 and being able to see weather and major world news all at once when I get out of the shower. I do have a separate app for local news though. And social hub is....just no...

Espyel, you thought about including doubletwist? They might promote you a bit and get some more downloads and possibly donations.

Also, is there any way to integrate a non stock music app like the stock one is? I can't do it myself, but I've been wondering for a long time.
[Captivate Android Development] eSPyeL:
I'll check it out.

You are correct. I actually kind of liked it better like that because it was different. I use it as my lock screen with stock lcd density settings.

Yep, #3 has already been done. #4 is pretty easy too so maybe between bentonhall and I we can get those integrated into the color themes.

Looks great! Thank you for the 6 pack! :)

Can't wait to check these out!

I've never actually used doubletwist. Actually, I don't really get to use my phone since I'm always flashing it and testing, tweaking, etc. I'll check it out though.
[Captivate Android Development] TheRealXenu:
This if fantastic

Thank you for the great rom. It has everything I want built in and it looks wicked awesome. The amount of effort and detail put into the rom shows. Its clean and fast. The colors and theme really show off the screen excellent contrast. Thanks!!

[Captivate Android Development] nv83:
Love the rom. It's like having a brand new phone! Only problem I have is the home button will randomly press itself repeatedly every so often which happens when I'm running stock as well but wasn't a problem on my last rom (cog 2something). Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Hey guys, I just wanted to share my paragon captivate. Tried a couple others over the last few days and keep coming back to paragon. Lovin all the bootanimations too! Keep it up guys!!

Thats really cool, love the inverted one! Good job!
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
I just flashed the purple theme and its great. The only recommendation I could make (and for the orange one) is to grid the gingerbread keyboard. Is there a way to get the default green keyboard on a different theme?
[Captivate Android Development] Clienterror:
There really isn't a specific set of values you use for every phone for UV/OC each phone is different. Now that you have a stable UV base line you play with the sliders and see how low you can get with your specific phone. When I posted my values I really wasn't recommending them, just sharing my phones specific (aggressive as possible) settings. But anyways see how low you can go now! UVing dosent hurt the phone, just crashes and needs a reboot. Good luck :-)

[Captivate Android Development] moopile:
Not rom related. Mms Sending fine to 2 other phones.
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
It was just a good place for me to start considering I have never OC/UV a phone. If it wasn't for your alls posts I probably would have held off til I found some values from somewhere else cause it looks as if it could take a lot of different combos to get it right.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I attempted -75, -100, -100, -125, -125, -150 and it locks up when I try to shutdown o_O Then something started to FC while booting (was still on the boot ani so I didn't get any error messages but it did the vibrations it usually does when an app hangs and FCs) so I had to boot into recovery and delete the data =|

[Captivate Android Development] theMaDHakkeR:
Just thought i would ask if anyone else is getting the jerky notification bar pull down. Sometimes its very smooth, sometimes it really jerky. Also right after i unlock the screen, there is some slight lag on screen swipes. Going into an app and then closing it gets the phone running smooth again. Not sure what it is but just wondering if anyone else has the same issue, or should i just reflash this bad ass mofo...
[Captivate Android Development] stigFX:
Battery life not good.

I flashed this ROM hoping to have "Amazing battery life". Nope. Disappointed. Going back to Cog.

Also the Browser was renamed to Internet. The zoom control was removed. You cant use one hand to zoom in and zoom out any more. :(
[Captivate Android Development] theMaDHakkeR:
Just looking at it again, the status bar pull down is horrible... It lags to all ****. This is however my only gripe with this rom. Everything else is excellent, and on average, i get about the same battery use as Cog 3.
[Captivate Android Development] fade2black:
Mine is pretty smooth, no noticeable lag. Are you OC/UV at all?
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
most of us are getting much better battery life, you probably just flashed it and hopping to keep using it for a month on a single charge? no, it ain't gonna happen Mr."my first post ever".
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I haven't been experiencing any lag or jerkiness with the notification pull down. Sorry.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
or you can try the theme that i posted few pages back, no lag at all :D

delete dalvik cache from recovery b4 installing.
[Captivate Android Development] theMaDHakkeR:
Its very strange because sometimes its butter smooth, and other times its really jerky when pulling down the notification bar, but the phone is running very smooth at the same time. Im not using OC/UV at the moment but other than the status bar, everything is running very smooth.

What could be causing the random lag though?
[Captivate Android Development] PlutoISaPlanet:

I'm recommending a name for it. Up to eSPyeL, but it fits his level of quality

quin·tes·sence

: the fifth and highest element in ancient and medieval philosophy that permeates all nature and is the substance composing the celestial bodies

2

: the essence of a thing in its purest and most concentrated form

Hey eSPeyL, you make some good sh!t. RC5.1 was my second ROM that i tried and the went on to try a few others to include all the big names and i came back to RC6 with the Blue theme. I love your work. OC'd to 1.3 and very stable, battery life is awsome, I can play Angry birds, surf the web, use XDA app, e-mail, flash a new theme, download apps, use wifi, all day long and only drain the battery to ~50%!!!
