I haven't experienced any random shutdowns with FF 2.1, but I did have a couple with Rogers stock before I exchanged the hardware. That was also before Froyo was released to us though.
[Captivate Android Development] ironmanapa:
Hey Xtreme, the battery I would like to see in firefly is in the themes forum, page 45. 10tonhammr made the mod I believe. I tried it on firefly before and couldn't get it to work. That battery in green and maybe one in blue would be awesome. I tried to copy the link to show you, but I messed it up.

*edit* here's the link

Nice Great Job

xTream, Adam,

WOW nice job firefly looks great. I have been running Phoenix since the begining. I am now at 4.5 waiting for supernova to come out before I make my mind to try Firefly.

The Phoenix and Firefly teams seems to be the more professional ROMS here.

Thanks again for your work and dedication
[Captivate Android Development] arabcamel:
I have been using Phoenix 4.5 since it was released and I just flashed FireFly 2.1 and love it. I'm not sure if I actually like FireFly more than Phoenix or if it's just my need to keep flashing every so often.

I do really like the no clock in the notification bar option though - saves some space up there.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
ok, I thought this would be pretty easy, all the other batteries have been, but this one is giving me some issues. I will double check with tsachi, he will know what to do.
[Captivate Android Development] geokhentix:
Awesome ROM as always. :)

One problem though; I'm not getting su to work with anything. It doesn't allow or deny access, it just fails. Sorry if this has already been asked / answered, I'm at work. Any way to fix this? I tried re-rooting, etc etc. Nothings taking. :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] defnow:
Same thing happened to me. Did you by anything flash anything to 2.1? A mod? The only way I fixed it was by reflashing.
[Captivate Android Development] ironmanapa:
pngsi thought it was just me having problems making that one work. At least that makes me feel a little better. Lol. I wonder if it is the size of the pngs not working with the framework. If it gets to be to big a prob, don't worry bout it. Just thought that one would look awesome.
[Captivate Android Development] Bigdog1:
I am so thankful for all the hard work that goes into working on these ROMs that I am obligated to make a donation every time I flash a new one. I have just flashed FF 2.1 and I am on my work comp so as soon as I get home I will make my donation. This ROM is really awesome. I have gone thru everything as yet but one thing I am noticing, NO ANIMATIONS. PLEASE RETURN THEM. Tried the ones from 2.0.4 and they do not work. It removed my clock. can someone help?
[Captivate Android Development] angelino1021:
Hello, Just put firefly 2.1 on my phone as my first custom rom^^ i think it is awesome. i was just wondering what i need to do to get that dock on the pictures in the original post it looks awesome. i also like having more then the dialer, internet, and apps buttons on the doc

Yea, I have the issue also, I am running the GB kernel. Are you using the speedmod kernel and having the issue also
[Captivate Android Development] n7slc:
Awesome ROM, I love it but I'm having the same battery issue as I did with the previous version. Sitting idle, screen off, the phone gets hot and will easily burn 20% of the battery in an hour. I didn't have this problem with Phoenix so I guess I'm going back...

Thanks Adam, This is a fix I found if you are using the Glitter B kernel.

I found a fix, it worked on two different captivates ignore that it says for vibrant this works if you are having the problem.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
my dad just got his captivate and i rooted and flashed firefly for him. Was an obvious choice because he wanted bluetooth dialing (and because i already knew it was stable and had great battery life)

so far so good and the bluethooth dialing working great with blueant accessory (+vlingo app)

I have been having serious battery drain issues with 2.1 and gps performance has not been as good as say 1.5. Got me lost twice in downtown toronto today and I lost about 30% battery in 3 hours without doing anything intensive (phone idle). Any ideas? I really like the look and feel of this rom and would hate to give up on it...

In response to a query regarding transferring files greater than 2 gb, I haven't tried yet bit I can transfer up to 1 gb now where previously I couldn't do 2kb. Definitely an improvement.
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
Have you tried deleting battery stats, draining battery completely and recharging? If so I would say reflash. I'm getting great battery usage, right now 10:51:45 unplugged and at 71%. And I used it pretty good today.

"Mounting fix for those not mounting external sd card to computer"

I flashed to FireBird2 v.07 yesterday after reading your post I noticed that my SD card was not being seen. I can verify this also fixes the issue on a FB2 kernel.

I will definitely try that. I'm at 55% and 6:49:23 since unplugged with moderate usage.

[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
I haven't tested GPS yet, but downtown Toronto is pretty bad depending on where you were. I have a Mio loaded with iGo and sometimes it can't determine where I am because of the tall buildings.

As for the battery drain, are you using automatic brightness? I find that using automatic brightness drains your battery A LOT. I can't get more than 24 hours of moderate usage out of it, which includes 0.5 hour of gaming, two hour of music, around 200 sent and received texts, and 10 minutes of calling.

@Team Phoenix. When I close the browser using the back button, it doesn't close completely. I have to go to Task Manager to close the Browser there. With other ROMS, including stock, it wasn't like this so I'm pretty sure it's a bug.

I'll see what I can do

Sent from my captivate running firefly / phoenix
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
OK, I see the issue. This mod uses 20 icons for charging where as the current FF is 100. The solution is either to modify the battery charging xml or build a full set of 100 icons for charging. I like the second option better, but I don't think I'll have time to do it tonight. I'll try to get it out tomorrow
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I already had made the 100 icons for charging, but it wont even show the normal battery. If you want I can get you the framework file that I did. Give me a sec, I'll put it here.

Here it is:

DO NOT DOWNLOAD UNLESS YOU ARE TSACHI. THIS IS ONLY FOR TSACHI.

[Captivate Android Development] mi04se1:
Im at 34 hours @ 28% since unplugged.
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
I see what you mean. This is usually a size mismatch issue (size allocated doesn't match icon size). Looking at the icons, some of them are 72dpi instead of 96dpi. I would expect it to be based on pixel count only, but there may be something in the manifest that doesn't like the change. I'm not going to have time to work on this tonight, but there are 2 options. One - completely unpack / repack the framework. Two - batch modify the resolution (I don't have photoshop on my laptop, so can't do it tonight). If you don't get to it I can try it tomorrow night
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
I can try doing the batch change. I'll let you know if it works or not and don't worry about replying back, I understand you are busy.

Thanks Tsachi.

which themes work with this rom?

also xtreme, do you think you can redo the GPS icon/use a different one?..the only beef I have with it is the edges aren't smooth so it has a kind of amateurish look to it..
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
Ya, those were the minor fixes I mentioned in the to do list. It will be fixed in the next update.

As for themes, Nun is working on one as we speak, it is going to be pretty sweet. As for existing ones, I didn't really look. I will check 'em out and tell you.

I just flashed from Cognition, and I absolutely love the theming and options of this ROM!

That said, my battery life is atrocious in comparison. Is this because of the speedmod kernel? modem?
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
Have you tried deleting battery stats, draining battery completely and recharging? If so I would say reflash. Most here get great battery out of this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] Ptaaty:
Yes. This seems to happen for me on all i9000 based, not FF specific.

So I put the Cog3 kernel and modem on FF 2.1 - but my wifi is borked (scan, disconnect, scan, disconnect).

Any ideas? I didn't restore anything, just flashed the Cog 3 modem/kernel on top of this with SGS and CWM, then cleared delvik.

Just to wanted to know if I could flash the gps fix for Firefly 2.0.5 onto other roms. I'm always switching back and forth between roms but this one has the best gps so far. :D

Firefly is based off of Rogers Froyo.. not i9000

Anyway, is facebook contacts sync working on this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] ironmanapa:
You are right but he was talking about the kernel and modem. Those are based off of the i9000. And the facebook contacts have been syncing for me.

So you can actually get Facebook's profile pictures onto FireFly 2.1? I can't seem to do that unless I manually add and join them one by one. Even then the photos are compressed and out of proportion.

Does anyone use google voice in place of the standard sms? I'm getting a lot of delay in receiving messages. I have been needing to manually refresh it to see texts. I didn't have this problem when using stock. I know there have been some reports about the delay but since I didn't have problems before I didn't know if it was tied to the rom.

Edit//I checked atk and and google voice is not showing up. It showed up before if I remember right. I did open up task manager and it is there though. I have tried installing and reinstalling but no change. Suggestions?

Hey xtreme, you have any luck with that battery mod?
[Captivate Android Development] xtremekilla09:
No dude, not yet. It is really bugging me. I didnt have time today to work on it, but I wont give up that easy. I'll get to the bottom of it.
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
OK guys, you would not believe how easy the solution was. One of the battery files (6%) had a capital extension, which the system didn't like. Change it to small caps and it's running fine. Attached is a CWM installable framework with the modified battery.

Warning if you installed any other theme over FF2.1 this will overwrite the theme's framework. Most likely it will just revert some of your theme back to stock FF view. If this was a complex theme, however, you may get FC and / or boot loops.

Edit: added screen shot

I'm also seeing similar kind of drain with Phoenix 3.5 (actually it has been similar with most roms% have tried, may be cog was a little better, not sure though). Specifically, I see about 1% drop every 4mins when browsing, reading mails etc., 1% drop every 2mins using gps or talking and between 1-4% drop per hour on idle. Are people seeing better performance than this?

I've the screen brightness set to the minimum pretty much all the time.
[Captivate Android Development] Joe Smithereens:
Just my 2 cents,

I'm running Firefly ROM with the KP1 modem and K12N kernel and this is off the freakin' hook. The only problem I am having (besides the lack of android lockscreen ;) ) is that my compass only works accurately when the phone is parallel to the ground. Before it was accurate with holding it at a comfortable angle. Not too big of a deal IMO........
