This came up in the phoenix thread (I think...maybe supernova) a while back and some seem to think it is ROM related as they had problems only on specific ROMS while others didn't seem to think it was a ROM issue but more of a hardware issue.

I would suggest flashing a couple of diff kernels and ROMS if you have the time to see if this remedies the issue. I would also have a look in those threads and hop into the Q&A forum as well as digging around with the search function to see what you can pull up.

Off the top of my head, I don't remember if a general consensus was reached on what the issue was but it couldn't hurt to read a bit. I would try troubleshooting the basics: did you accidentally recover system data? perhaps it was a bad flash (this does occur for no reason whatsoever)... did you use the update package (I am presuming you went from 2.4-2.5). I flash to stock with a master clear couldn't hurt and then flash the full 2.5 on top of it. Did you swap out kernels by chance? Reverting to speedmod if you did and see what happens? If the issue wasn't occuring on 2.4, perhaps simply reflashing that one in the interim while 2.6 is cooking and see if a straight flash from 2.4 to 2.6 would fix it.

These are simply all things I would do myself but I honestly believe that digging with the search function in other threads in the Dev section will be your best bet. I know I was reading a bunch about this problem a couple of weeks ago when I was trying to follow all of team phoenix/supernova/fusion/FF's stuff but it was too much to keep reading up on lol. It isn't much to go on, but at least I can try to help point you in the right direction.

good luck

OK guys, I figured out why the Gingerbread and Honeycomb batteries get cut off. The framework for 2.2 and under is based on having a two pixel "safe frame". The development guide states that the image can overlap to the top and left margins, but not the right and bottom. Versions 2.3 and up do not have that restrictions, so the batteries coming from those framework get cut off (even though the status panel is the same height as the status icon). There are three options, first is to delete the outer circle from these batteries, second is to shift them up (they currently have 1 pixel frame so if moved up will be ok), and third is to find the title bar height definitions and try to increase it by 1 pixel. It is too late for me tonight, but I'll look into these tomorrow.

I always flash to stock then master clear.She never had that problem before with cog or perception. It wasn't till I flashed firefly and serendipity that she started complaining. I would say maybe speedmod? Idk it's aggravating though
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
I would try a different kernel. Not all phones respond the same - for me speedmod always worked well, but phoenix kernel created issues.

Does Bluetooth reside with the kernal or the modem?

I am having huge issues with bluetooth on my cappy, I have a in car after market Parrot MKi 9200 and have connection issues. I talk to Parrot USA and they say it is Android and Samsung, talk to Samsung they say it is Parrot. UGH>>>>>>

I have been told it is a Android issue and most likely won`t get resolved till Android 2.4 hits and a resolved standard for Bluetooth. The only thing I miss on my Torch 9800 was stable bluetooth, which the Captivate does not have......

Any thoughts or is this going to be my Achilles heel with this phone???
[Captivate Android Development] fractaline:
@caanda45 it's my understanding that the trade off for using an i9000 modem, that gives us hsupa, is the loss of bluetooth....i don't use it so no loss here.... but look into using a captivate modem.

BTW, did you ever get fancy widget to see your clock skins?

Are you using free or paid?

If only the market would take pay pal. Maybe it's super manager.

Oh yeah........happy birthday!

I had this issue with ultimate juice where the wifi wouldn't consistently turn back on after the app shuts it down when the screen is locked. I would have to go back into settings > wireless and network > wifi to turn it back on because I would get "Error" and it wouldn't turn on automatically.

I did some testing with different wifi drivers and I think I found a good one used by darky (unsure of driver version) that connects reliably. If you have similar problems as me, try my attachment. I also included Guardian_Bob's DHCPCD too for good measure.

In unrelated news, I noticed theres a patch (droiddreamkiller) for the recent batch of malware that appeared on the market a week ago. Probably good measure to include it in the next FF update. OR you can install it now ;)

I've been wanting to flash the gb circle battery for some time but my OCD has been preventing me to do so. Now I'm excited :D Thanks!!

My wifes BB Torch is flaky but this ROM is great for built in bt on our car.
[Captivate Android Development] tbrummell:
Works excellent on my Pioneer head unit in my 4Runner, as well as my Sony BT-100CX.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
Did you swap out modems/kernels in testing to get better battery life and end up accidentally having a captivate kernel with an I9000 modem or vice versa? That will bork your bluetooth. Look into it :) ... could be as simple as that.
[Captivate Android Development] caanda45:
Well now I am confused (happens a lot in this process here) my Baseband Version is

I9000UGJK4, is that good? Compatible with Bluetooth? And the Kernel is Suckerpunch-Voodoo # 7. So is this the wrong modem? If yes which one should I use, this is the one in FF 2.5? Ughhh HELP!!!!!!!:confused:

And no I never did get Fancy Widgets to see the other skins, still working on it....lol, but the Bluetooth is a far more important issue for me!!!

Current 2.2 Modems:

UCJJ4 - AT&T Captivate (Uses WCDMA 850 by default)

UCJI6 - AT&T Captivate (Uses WCDMA 850 by default)

XXJPP - European GT-i9000 (Does not use WCDMA 850 by default)

XXJPM - European GT-i9000 (Does not use WCDMA 850 by default)

UGJK3 - Bell Vibrant GT-i9000 (Uses WCDMA 850 by default)

UGJK4 - Bell Vibrant GT-i9000 (Uses WCDMA 850 by default) Thread

TLJL3 - Telus GT-i9000 (Uses WCDMA 850 by default) Thread

Okay should I be on one of these? Which one if yes, I gather I will get data just maybe slower, that doesnot matter to me, Bluetooth is way more important!!! Paint by numbers here for me, copy and paste suggestions...lol please!!!

I ran the original stock ROM on my phone from August 2010 through January 2011, and I never had the home key flash problem. When I installed Firefly, it started happening randomly. I later installed Paragon and it also happens with that ROM. They both have Speedmod in common. I may try a different kernel or ROM to see if it goes away. Otherwise, I was very pleased with both Firefly and Paragon.

On mine the home key flashing "usually" occurs within 30 seconds of unlocking the phone. If my screen has not been locked, the problem never occurs.
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
Both, but kernel seems to have more effect on compatibility (at least for me). that being said, some devices work better than others, so it is also partially your device

Sent from my captivate running the latest firefly
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
Exactly and well said. I've never had BT issues with SpeedMod, but have had them with other kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
I havn't finished reading the suckerpunch thread in it's entirety but from what I read it should work with your modem. It was compiled from a newer source that may be messing with you.

I9000UGJK4 - this is your modem (you'll see it referred to as jk4 a lot here)

simplest answer could be the modem doesn't work well with your phone. Try flashing any of the I9000 based modems in either of the two modem threads

TLJL3, UGJK3 (prolly gonna drain battery compared to others), ZNKP1, and give it a go...don't worry about battery performance, just see if BT is working. If you get the results you want, then calibrate, etc.

I would progress from there:

the OP of the suckerpunch-voodoo thread says to use an I9000 modem so you should be good to go. I know that suckerpunch (the original) is built off of the speedmod kernel. Try flashing that (disable lagfix first by inserting into the voodoo folder a folder named "disable_lagfix" (without the quotation marks) and reboot, then flash your suckerpunch kernel. If it is still unhappy... go back to speedmod unless you are dead set on suckerpunch...

Are you UV'ing your phone? may also be a stability issue with BT...it does suck up juice ... but you'd have to ask over in those threads, I am just beginning to wade into OC/UV and my knowledge is even more limited than what it is presently.
[Captivate Android Development] WirelessMike:
I don't know if this helps, but I'm inclined to think the issue is with the Parrot.

I run firefly 2.5 with speedmod and JK4, and have never had the first problem using the built-in bluetooth on either my 2010 GMC Sierra or my 2011 Ford Escape. I keep bluetooth active on my Captivate and it links up to either vehicle seconds after I start the car. I've made and answered too many calls to count using bluetooth in my vehicles with firefly. No issues other than the typical low mic volume (default setting on most built-in bluetooth receivers to reduce ambient noise).

I hope that helps. I think you should get a friend with an alternative bluetooth built-in in his/her vehicle and test with that, then take Parrot to the mat with this issue. You might even try a different model of Parrot.

Funny thing-- I had issues just connecting my phone to the built-in usb receiver of my pickup using stock (before I tried flashing anything). The first rom I flashed was cognition. I've since flashed paragon and am now dedicated to firefly. I haven't had that issue crop up again since my first flash.
[Captivate Android Development] caanda45:
Thanks for all the help, I think that maybe Taschi is right that maybe I had less issues with speedmod. I had issues with it but not as bad since I went to sucker-punch. I am going to flash back to that using SGS kernel flasher and we will see what issues we have. Actually I am going to do a clean flash go back to stock and master clear and then put a clean ff on and put my apps back on.......

Thanks again guys for the help!!!!!!

Fancy Widget clock skin (Haighter)

I'm trying to run Haighter beautiful clock skin for fancy widget but for some reason it's not picking up the skin folder. I had to manually create the fancywidget/clockskins folder in Android/data. I dropped the unzipped folder in it without any double name folder (FireflyFW/FireflyFW). The free fancy widget version has a 5 skin limitation but i have none. I tried to clear the data delete the app reinstall it and still it's only showing the default skin under the clock skin menu.

I'm running with Dark Fire blue theme and wondering if it could be the reason or is something else bugging fancy widget ?
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
Have you tried rebooting?

And just to be sure, the completed path is: sdcard/Android/data/fancywidget/clockskins/FireFlyFW
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
Thank for the reply..

Yes tried to reboot after the uninstall.. even rebooted after dumping the FireflyFW folder in the clockskins but it's still not showing up.
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
Try renaming FireFlyFW in the clockskins folder to, well, anything... but try naming it just firefly, run a media scan or reboot and see if that kicks FW in the butt.
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
Currently rebooting after the rename...

and it's still a no show bummer.
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
Grrr... I will do a bit of research and see what I can come up with.
[Captivate Android Development] bigsmitty64:
I'm having the same exact issue! Bummer cause it looks amazing dude.

Frak! I'm reading some developer stuff that reads like stereo instructions, but I will keep working on getting this figured out.
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
Might not be the issue but your missing a tab.png file in your clockskin zip.

[Captivate Android Development] Johnsondr80:
For all having FW skin problems.

Look here : http://www.anddoes.com/fancy-widget-faq/

It tells you about using your pc to load the skin. Don't know how it would matter. But maybe it does.

Hope it helps.

[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Alright, I am working on the next update and have a few things lined up for it.

@Haighter: You already know, but that clock is amazing. I am still working on how I can include that by default.

To all: thanks for the wishes, lets get back to business. FireFly Thursday is upon us ;)
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
Yeah that's what i did to dump the folder in my sdcard, issue is somewhere else.

It's not a modem thread either and i see plenty of post.. nobody said anything about that. It's a Firefly thread for all the community ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
The tab.png is only for flip clock styles. Digital styles use dots.png, which my skin has. So, I don't think that is it. Plus, they work on my Cappy when I test them (and I am refining the images... not 100% happy with them yet).

Now, I need a brave soul to try this revamped skin file to see if they can get it to stick. Please drop the unzipped folder in your clockskins folder by mounting the sdcard and transferring from your PC to the phone (as John noted).

Hopefully, this will work. It works on mine, but that doesn't mean squat. It needs to work on everyone's.

EDIT: Remember it's not flashable. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
Testing now

EDIT: .ouuhhhhhh ouuhhhh i see it. Testing some more to make sure of something.

EDIT#2: Ok only the FF One Black is showing up in the skin selection. I tried doing the file path only on android and copy the skin from pc and compared it with a all pc path and drop the skin but nothing changed. Only the One black was showing.
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
So, that skin (FF One Black) is showing up now? And you can apply the skin?

(please show up... please show up...)
[Captivate Android Development] silvertag:
Yes and yes... I compared both skin and i can only see a change in the file size for the digit files and .txt file. Appart from that i see nothing out of the ordinary.
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
Thanks +100 for helping me test, silvertag! And I am stoked it seems to be working. I think it may have been a filename problem.

So, now I have to kill all the old .zips and get the new ones up.

I am already on it. The white version of the one based on the Bauhaus font (the one in your thumbs) is done and ready to go (want to test it for me?). I am working on revamping the heavier one based on the Honcho font.

I will have the cleaned up files/images for the skin up by tonight. With the help of silvertag, it looks like the new skin folder works. I'll PM you once all is set.

[Captivate Android Development] Delicate Donut:
Will the swype be themed black? With white keys and green alt keys? If not I still have the one you gave me! How hard is it to change the colors for it?
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Its going to be the default swype theme that comes with FF (the one I made). Its because the all black one is hard for me to use. Sorry.

Once you apply the update, all you have to do is, drop the swype.apk in for the one I already fixed for you.
[Captivate Android Development] Haighter:
Ummm... Not sure which screenshot. Is it the round black button with a white icon in it or was it colored? If it's the round one, I have that skin in black, blue, and green. Actually, I can make that one in any color you want in just a few minutes. And I have a few colored, cartoonish ones: Klear, Shiny, and Buuf.
[Captivate Android Development] Delicate Donut:
Cool beans. You should add akbar font! At least I think that's the name...lol
[Captivate Android Development] caanda45:
Haighter and others I think I have finally found out what my problem is for the Fancy Widgets ( and maybe others). I checked the properties and it is read only. So what programs do I need and how do I change the properties of the files ( clockskins I presume?) to r/w? It could be something as simple as that!!

Also haighter is the zip supposed to unzipped or left as a zip file, that seems to have changed unless I mis understood you yesterday!!!
