[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] excarnate:
"weird", not "wierd".

Mine took:

20 seconds the first time, 4 seconds the second time (I found the shorter time didn't last all that long in actual use). Yes, I had it on the default setting of updating contacts automatically. I don't see why I should have to change a default and give up the functionality for it to work. Still, I changed the setting, since I don't care about it, and rebooted my phone. 2 seconds to prompt me. I tried to open "Timer" and it kept opening "Camera" but that's a different topic. Nice to know it can be reasonably fast (thank you for the tip!), but the Google voice search is faster still and lets me call all contacts, even new ones.

No, *I* don't have something going on, the phone does. It did this from stock, it did this on several phones (I kept trying til I got a good screen), it does this rooted.

If the automatic update of contacts is so tough for it, it was a poorly chosen default, but it hardly constitutes my having something going on.

You are getting way too worked up over this. He didn't say it is a "useless waste of space", he asked if anyone else found it to be a "useless waste of space like I do", which is quite different. Even so, it would clearly be his opinion.

I generally find the Genius Button app to be accurate, not withstanding the above, but the Google voice search does nearly as much and works out of the box. It isn't worth my time to re-edit the keys to bring the app back.

Please note, I said "my time", not "your time" or "everyone's time" :-)

Anyone, I don't suppose there is a way to make the physical "genius" button a general 'Find' like it is on my wife's Droid X?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortskoolbus:
Google voice search seems too be more intuitive, less intrusive, and launches much faster in my opinion. I've remapped genius button to launch google voice search. :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrueBlue_Drew:
hey excarnate,

1st...thanks for correcting my spelling :rolleyes:

2nd...dont assume that I am worked up over something so trivial as if you or anyone else likes, wants to use or doesn't want to use a app. I could really care less and was only trying to let people know there are settings that can be adjusted to make it faster.

3rd...While I think that Google voice search works great I don't think it has all of the capabilities that Genius does but Genius has all of the ones that Voice search does. So to compare the two is a little harder than just saying that Google voice search is better because it is faster. Genius wins hands down when it comes to the amount of things it does in comparison to Google Voice search. Try telling Google voice search to "turn on wifi", "Open Settings", "turn of GPS" :)

4th...I am not sure what the "find" feature is on the droid phone but since you have taken the time to remap your genius button you can use the app called Button Shortcut (free in market) or Launchkey (free on xda) to open any other app with the long press of Genius/Search button.

Not sure why you decided to try and pick apart my post, but its all good.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] excarnate:
Heh, I have smilies adblocked so didn't notice til I hit reply. I'm just glad you didn't use "lol" as punctuation.

Originally I used Button Shortcut to launch the Genius Button app, but after rooting my current phone (with a good screen!) I gave up on Genius Button. If I knew I could have turned off one of the defaults to make it perform acceptably, I would have made it the long press default. Maybe I still will, if I remap the button for any other reason.

Find, is simply find within the current app. If I'm in contacts, the find button lets you find something in contacts. If I'm in a webpage, I believe it lets one search in the webpage (I don't use her phone much so I'm not sure about this).

[mini rant about the contacts app on the MT4G deleted]

So my new take on the Genius Button is: it is worthless out-of-the-box. If your contacts are stable, disable automatic updates and only remap the long press (if desired). If your contacts aren't stable and are important, dump it for the Google search & voice search.

[New information: Even with manual updates of contacts it is very slow to start when on hands free (hands free mode or not). I plan to freeze it in Titanium Pro.]
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bittermormon:
I agree with Drew, its a nice app. It opens really quickly on CM7 (which I have installed thanks to Drew's thread). On a stock or Ice it can lag quite a bit though. Sometimes I'll wipe everything out with ATK before I get in the car and that helps.

I just downloaded faster phone from the market not knowing that you have to pay to the text messages it sends. Is there a way to stop this? Can I just delete the application and If I do, will it not be able to send me texts?

Download Rogers 2.6

If there are any bugs PM me and I'll try to get them fixed.

Just in case anyone wanted them. Here are the drivers in a smaller and automated installer that I created. It's the same that's used in my program so if you have my program installed you don't need to worry about these. -32 bit -64bit

Nice tool, don't know if I'll use it, but appreciate the effort!
[Captivate Android Development] perosredo:
Will this work for Rogers (I896) Captivates?
[Captivate Android Development] Loggik:
Will definitely use this. It's a nice place to keep things organized, and this also means that I don't have to install ROM Manager on my stock flash anymore to install Clockwork (because I always forget to save the update.zip that ROM Manager downloads for future use).
[Captivate Android Development] Stephenxda:

I don't guarantee it but if you can use the files in this guide on your phone then it'll work as I've used those files for the rooting and ClockWorkMod files.

I apologize but the One click Root Application has been in the development section forever and this is essentially that but with more features.

Indeed. :D
[Captivate Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
To make this more useful you need to add a button after the third step for masterclear as this is always a good idea. And also for anyone like me you also need to make a step 3b.) which would do the odin stock recovery for those who need the 3 button download mode fix as found here (because regular odin stock recovery doesnt restore that 3 button combo for some phone revisions like mine ;\)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=818439

If you could add these then it would make this AIO 100% more useful.
[Captivate Android Development] Djazin:
Of the starting line Q's

-Any way to get this standalone?

-Add ".net4 required" pls I fall back to xp when it comes to flashing more stable with drivers have to sit and update XD no biggy just a good thing to know before hand.

# okay first road block I have a unhanded exception error is it somthing to do with using the drivers I would use for odin and not the package that is intergrated with your application?
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
I'll try and include those features in the next release. I've got a lot of stuff with school this week but hopefully next weekend I'll update. And for the master clear: Odin should still be open after your phone has been restarted so just press the master clear button then.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Not really anyway I can do to make this standalone. And I don't know how this will work with drivers other then the provided ones. Sorry for the double post...
[Captivate Android Development] AtoZ0to9:
i just started drooling...

BTW, great tool, since I flash back to stock after changing the ROM a few times... will definately make things easier from now on, so thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] perosredo:
Just to potentially shed some light on the Rogers bricking issue, I successfully used--with ODIN--both the stock 2.1 ROM that I linked to here yesterday, as well as what the consensus on this forum is the stock 2.2 ROM. I believe these are the 2 Rogers ROMs that are being packaged with this tool.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
You're correct that those are the two Rogers ROMs that I packed with the program and they seem to work for everyone. But I'd like to know what issues anyone is having with the rogers version so just PM me them and if it worked for you go ahead and PM me about that too as I'd like to see if it's a widespread problem or just for a few users.
[Captivate Android Development] Enhanced:
I just went through one hell of a time with this entire situation.

Used the Rogers version of your program and followed all the instructions to flash back to stock. However, like I said, it would not boot up and gave me this error in the recovery menu:

update media, please wait...

E: Can't mount /dev/block/stl10

(invalid argument)

E:copy_dbdata_media: can't mount DBDATA:

copy default media content failed.

I tried everything but it seemed like the only thing I could do was use Odin3 One Click which I tried to refrain from doing because that's meant for AT&T users. I did it anyways and it booted up and I had the stock AT&T ROM on my Rogers Captivate.

Then I tried to flash back to the stock Rogers 2.1 ROM that I had and it went well except the AT&T initial splash screen always shows in the beginning. I'm ignoring it for now and decided to continue to flash to the ROM I want (using the way I normally do it using CWM). I root using SuperOneClick but when I try installing CWM Recovery, it wouldn't read the update.zip and gave me something like:

E:Error sdcard/update.zip (Status 7)

Installation aborted.

I wouldn't be able to install any update.zip because of this (I tried others). After trying to troubleshoot this and because this ordeal was taking a while, I decided to Odin3 One-click back to the AT&T ROM and do a master clear. From there, I installed the ROM I wanted and everything seems fine now except for that AT&T splash screen when booting up.

Safe to say, it has been a long night. =\

Hope that gives you some info bay_wolf. I'm in no way bashing you but would just like to tell my story for anyone else with a Rogers Captivate that may encounter some issues. Who knows, maybe it was just me for some odd reason. Now I just want to remove the AT&T boot up imagine and I do know that your program does have the option of doing that, but I'm just a tiny bit reluctant because of the entire situation originated from it to begin with. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Thanks for letting me know. I'll try to replicate this issue on my phone (using an At&t version but I doubt it'll matter). If anyone else has this issue please PM me about it.

EDIT: I just got the same issue on mine. So, I've removed the download link to the rogers version and will be trying to figure this issue out. Sorry everyone.
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:
Success for my at&t captivate

Downloaded the latest version a little while ago and just completed installing a custom ROM through it. All went as should. Success !! :D

Great job bay_wolf and great tool !!

I was having some difficulties with the previous versions. But tonight when I got to the step to Select/Copy Custom ROM + Copy CWM + Reboot into Recovery, I let it load all the way (that is, I let the status bar get all the way green) then I unplugged my usb cable from my phone and then made the selection with the volume keys to reinstall packages and so on...

On the previous versions I was leaving the usb connected and I believe that was giving me some problems.

Anyway thanks again. Donation sent.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
It seems like the ODIN files that are for the Rogers version are causing this issue. Can anyone give me links to the confirmed working PDA and PIT files for the Rogers Captivate? If they are the already linked ones here, I'll redownload them and do some further testing.
[Captivate Android Development] Enhanced:
I use:

Stock Rogers 2.1: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BD2EF4WF

PIT: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9343040/PIT.pit

on Odin3 1.0.

While your testing, do you mind testing the RemoveATT.tar to see if it's good to use in Odin3? I would like to remove the AT&T logo if possible.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Okay, redownloading those (they were the ones I used to begin with) and I'll do some testing using ODIN 1.0 since I've been testing it with 1.3, 1.7, and 1.81. Maybe the ODIN version has something to do with it.

EDIT: this will have to be done tomorrow as I've got to get some sleep tonight.
[Captivate Android Development] TRusselo:
oh crap someone should have PMed me few pages back when you were asking me for rogers files.

i have used these files to flash stock (i know these work)

with odin 1.7

and 2.1 definately suggested! 3e recovery signiature verifacation is a mother! ATT will see soon!

if REALLY needed you can clockwork update 2.1 to 2.2 rogers with this

[Captivate Android Development] sethjamto:
I searched the thread and didn't find this, and will admit that I did NOT read all 19+ pages. Does this work on a 1012 build to flash back to stock? I've flashed back with Odin3 in the past, but want to make sure that this program supports my 1012 build for going back to stock for when I want/need to try out another ROM.

I'm downloading it now, and will check back for an answer soon! Thanks!

....also....what about the download? I've been downloading it for the past almost 2 hours and still have 11 hours to go! 47/349MB downloaded...WOW! I guess I'll install it in the morning! ;-)
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
There's a torrent link so make it faster of a download and I don't promise that your phone won't have anything happen to it (disclaimer I have to put in) but on my model 1012 I use the program I created and have no issues.

EDIT: Team Komin mirror is now up on the first page. Should provide faster downlaods for most of you.

EDIT2: Figured out the rogers issue. I'll be uploading the new version shortly. It'll only have the option for 2.1 and won't have the remove at&t logo option yet. Sorry, but this is the best I can get right now. I'll try and update it later this week for more options.

copy default media content failed.

this is for 2.6 rogers
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Did you tick the box next to repartition? as the ODIN version I included with 2.6 doesn't do that by default. If you did try it again without doing that. Just select the PIT and PDA file and press start.

EDIT: that's really weird my stat counter must not be working as it says 0 downloads for 2.6 rogers.
[Captivate Android Development] antonyfl:
haha well I downloaded when I first saw it since I had problems with my battery life. I needed a fresh phone without ATT crap so I opted for Rogers odin. I used regular one click odin to go back to ATT stock, master cleared, then Odin'd to Rogers via AIO tool

New issue though: Unable to root with AIO method. Debug is on, Clicked Root phone and it boots to recovery. When reinstalling packages, a bunch of words pop up that are similar to the following: "getprop('ro.build.product') == "SPH-D700" ||

[Captivate Android Development] SlyDogJeff77:
I did a backup using rom manager and titanium backup. Then I used this program to install a new rom. I didn't know that the backup and all of my pictures were stored in the internal sd card. Not my external. So I followed the directions and did a master wipe.

ARE THEY GONE FOR GOOD NOW?
