I just install the zip using CWM wipe cache, user data dont know if this is the correct kernel for me must be the one that came in the zip file by default, thnks again

Watsa, what are your best recomendantio, reinstall from zero, or what, thanks for your help
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Yea its a good idea to start from fresh, and as i asked did u have wifi on all this time? what was your wifi sleep policy? what was total display time?
[Captivate Android Development] latinoguy:
I just turned off when screen off, is that correct, I will give last day chance if continue with the same problem, I will install from 0 thnks for your help again.

Interesting....
[Captivate Android Development] xnoctis93:
if anyone can help me with this installation issue. I am stuck at the screen where I get the bootloop (between the talan splash screen and 19000 logo screen) and I am supposed to enter recovery to flash apex. The problem is...I cannot enter recovery. I have tried everything, but no combo seems to be working for me. What should I do?
[Captivate Android Development] simple man:
The easiest thing would be put it download mode and reflash stock G

Continuum 6.1 JVQ

TalonDev 0.4.1 non-ocerclock

it looks like shoman94 managed to solve my issue. Thanks for the help anyways! :)

hi all, just a quick q, i want to flash back to apex from miui, and the captivate gingerbread bootloaders refuse to flash, i just get soft bricked every time, ive tried flashing the bootloaders by themselves and with an entire gingerbread rom, without success. any ideas??
[Captivate Android Development] KILAgad:
watsa, you can add russian language (layout) to Swype keyboard in next update?
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
I guess it's not available yet for swype version 3.36. You'll have to wait until the swype team add it, or find an older version that includes russian language and push it to your phone.
[Captivate Android Development] tkjeeper:
is apex 8.2 a full wipe?

edit, I guess at 12 mb it better not be! lol

Yes it wipes away worries ;)

No, it is an incremental update
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
Dark Core Kernel fixed my lag issues, and it's battery seems outstanding. I haven't upgraded to 8.2 yet.

NOW >>> Is there a GPS fix? I'm getting poor GPS sat lock. I never get all the way locked in Nav, and I drop and regain sats. Yes, this is a new captivate with fully working GPS. Tested on other ROMs
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
watsa where's your Pp account? On another note, it didn't work but I wanted to thank you for the assistance!
[Captivate Android Development] tkienzle:
Nice thanks...
[Captivate Android Development] satans spawn1972:
Sorry if this has already been asked and answered but I could not find this question yet......can you go from 8.0 straight to 8.2 or do I have to update to 8.1 first?
[Captivate Android Development] ~Reaper~:
thanks

I love this rom

Love the Rom...im having issues with the gallery freezing almosr everytime i go in there...any ideas?

[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
Flashed 8.2 update over 8.1 just fine. Only issue was that none of my widgets would finish loading after reboot. Tried several times.

Finally just removed and re-added them, and they're ok now. Not a big deal, just an FYI if you're interested.

Didn't lose the battery percentage mod, so didn't have to re-apply that.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Hmmm...Russian language should already be added to the Swype3.6 version. However, if you want it themed, then that's a different story.
[Captivate Android Development] oblivianz:
Thanks for adding the fonts watsa, i'm charging my phone to try this now.
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
8.2 Already? Damn, watsa, do you ever sleep? lol
[Captivate Android Development] caleb220:
This rom is amazing. I never realized how much I liked TW until i flashed this rom. I now really like the clean style of it. Great job, only bad thing was that I JUST downloaded 8.1 last night, I got up this morning and found out that 8.2 had been released. :P
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
I think I'll just take the fonts from 8.2 update and add them. I already have the 0.4.1 kernel. What folder can I copy the fonts to?
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
@ Watsa

Under mod version it just says 8.2...i think it should read Apex 8.2...just a minor observance. Did i mention i love the rom?

[Captivate Android Development] JayFReaZy:
Had this ROM installed for a day now and so far it's been great. However the phone has froze on me twice while "Clearing Memory" in the task manager. I think it might be an issue with TouchWiz as this same problem was happening when I was on the GR-* series. I can't duplicate it, but every once in a while when I clear the memory in the task manager the phone will simply freeze, then reboot. Is this a known TouchWiz issue, or are there any other users experiencing this same issue? Either way, still an awesome ROM!
[Captivate Android Development] monoespacial:
Flashed 8.1 yesterday and I'm loving it so far. One question though: is there any way to tweak the maximum speaker sound? I find it to be very low for notifications.

Anyone notice some of the notification sounds a little low?
[Captivate Android Development] smeltn:
Really? LMAO You seriously didn't read the post right above yours?
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
I found this on a site and it could help you out. You actually change the default volume for each volume level on the phone. I have not tried it on 8.1.

Try this

Using dialer, punch in *#*#197328640#*#*

Follow the steps

[5] AUDIO

[1] HANDSET

[1] VOLUME

[1] SRC Speech RX Volume

[5]5_lvl : 92

Menu -> Key Input

Change to any number greater than 92 (Max:100)

OK

Press back to save.

EDIT: These are not step by step directions but once in the settings, you can figure out what to change, whether handset, BT, speaker etc.
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
I get the same thing Watsa can we get a fix for this?
[Captivate Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
Barely any difference.

This an issue with all SGS phones I think.

I read reports that the SGS2 has this too. This is BS, my old HTC Magic in call volume is freaking loud with the loud volume hack. Almost speaker phone quality.

Great devices but Samsung really ****ed up with this one here.
[Captivate Android Development] joax11:
There is no haptic feedback in the keyboard although I enable it in the keyboard settings and the sound settings! Anyone else has this problem?
[Captivate Android Development] monoespacial:
A couple of things about notification volume:

- This affects most, but not all notifications.

- I'm using a custom ringtone I made from an mp3 that I had previously altered to increase three volume using itunes. This sounds really loud.

- Not an issue in Serendipity 6.4. Notification sound wasn't very loud, certainly not low.

Maybe increasing the base volume of the sound files could solve this?
[Captivate Android Development] d_gritza:
I had a day off today so I figured I would retry ApeX 8.2 after having not such a great experience with 8.0. This time it is leaps and bounds better.

3 quick questions (from someone that used S7!)

1. Is there an AOSP theme for this?

2. Can I add more apps to the TW launcher?

3. Can I change my "homescreen" to page x?

Thanks again!
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
I don't think there is one for Apex directly.

Is there no full 8.2 package? I'm on 7.3 now. Would i need to flash 8.1, and then the 8.1 to 8.2 update?
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Yea. I'm downloading 8.1 now and I'll add the changes from 8.2 and integrate them. I'll add the full package to the website soon.
[Captivate Android Development] JayFReaZy:
I just installed Apex 8.2 this morning and it seems to be a little smoother than 8.1. However, BLN is not working for me. Anyone else having the same problem?
[Captivate Android Development] smeltn:
Download BLN from the market and enable it
[Captivate Android Development] Barsky:
Just installed 8.2. Never saw the User Agent setting on that main menu before. Anyway, I can't change the agent. it always reverts back to Custom. I tried going into settings and did a Reset to Default. Didn't help. Any ideas?

Thanks

Edit: Guess it changes the variable in Custom when you do that. But doesn't seem to change anything regardless. shrug. small thing.

Make sure you are using CWM3 modem zips. I've changed to JK4 without any issue.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:

[Captivate Android Development] jetpuck73:

[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Go into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache. See if it helps.
[Captivate Android Development] jetpuck73:
Got it, Thanks!!
[Captivate Android Development] justmart:
I have the same problem, but in my case I flashed Xcal's kernel at the same time that I flashed JK4 so I thought it was the kernel... Anyways.. after a couple of autoreboots the cel boot normally. Now I'm curious... is not the kernel... is the JK4 modem.

P.S. I wiped cache and dalvik.
[Captivate Android Development] smeltn:
I am getting the exact same problem.. Worked great until I updated to 8.2.. I was actually running 0.4.1 Talon already before the flash, but my modem is KC1.

Only way to fix it was to flash back to 8.1
[Captivate Android Development] Beny The Kid:
You should be able to fix it with just the 8.1 update since it updates the framework. I have fixed a couple of bad flashes this way. Avoids having to re-install all you apps and info....

Edit: That is of course if you are already running on APEX 8.x........
[Captivate Android Development] justmart:
I cannot do that because I have 7.3. Seems that 7.3 and 8.2 have the same problem.
[Captivate Android Development] Beny The Kid:
Right....edited the post to mention that you have to be running APEX 8.x....

Thanks! 10char
[Captivate Android Development] dc5ftw:
does the 8.2 wipe dalvik cache?
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Yes the update does because there is a kernel change.

New MattedBlues almost ready, bring back some pngs that watsa forgot (or intentionally messed up to give me some extra work :rolleyes:) and themed the new browser in 8.2.

[Captivate Android Development] rg400smarttowel:
still the browser seems buggy. the navigation part sometimes go all white and you can't click on it.

[Captivate Android Development] monoespacial:
It seems to me that browsers in general lag more than they did when I was using Froyo based roms. Anyone else experience this?

Forgot to ask, is there any way to get gifs to display correctly?
[Captivate Android Development] rg400smarttowel:
i went and got the opera browser. wow this browser is so fast.
[Captivate Android Development] mttfrog13:
I just installed this browser coming from serendipity vii. I gotta say I'm really impressed. I really like the EDT tweaks.

Also, the best thing about this browser is that it makes my gps work enough to be usable. I was really amazed at how well my gps worked. No more searching for locations in my phone and then inputting the address into my outdated in-dash gps system.

I've only ever used cognition or serendipity roms and neither have been able to get my gps to a point where it's functional. I went on multiple errands around town today and while not perfect, the gps was completely usable and the accuracy only decreased when i went under overpasses or bridges. Not once did i lose signal, or get the problems where the gps would say that i'm actually going the opposite direction or was a block over. What's different about this rom versus serendipity vii that was able to achieve this for me?

The matted blue theme is also really cool. I had to get rid of the ugly gradient and color in the background of the default notification pulldown.

Yeah opera browser is the smoothest browser on android. It's the only browser that can match the buttery smoothness of the iphone browser. The only downside is that it takes a bit longer to load on a cold start.
[Captivate Android Development] BumRush:
Been using this rom for about a week now. Love it. Only problem is that the haptic is extremely weak. Anyone have a fix for this?
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Have you verified that the haptic settings are maximized?

on the captivate roms the haptics were stronger with the settings maxed. Just the i9000 roms have haptics a little weaker i dont know why.

Hey loving this rom so far everything runs super smooth but I'm having a problem with the browser sometimes when loading a page it just goes blank and I can't do anything but close the browser and start all over any ideas?

[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Come on buddy. It comes up every 5 pages and it was on the previous one. Theres no fix by now but you can install a different browser from the market. My favorite is Dolphin Browser Mini.

Well for all those with charging bug I found directions elsewhere and these seem to work well. I haven't had an issue in several days.

10 Drain battery to phone shut down.

2) Pull battery

3) Plug phone in VIA WALL CHARGER

4) Insert battery and turn phone on

5) Turn all options off, sound, wifi, screen etc

6) Let charge to 100& turn phone off unplug and pull battery.

7) Plug phone in replace battery and let charge to 100%

8) Let phone stay on charger for an hour (or more) after 100% shows up.

It does take a while, but it does work.

Good luck;)

Hello all,

I've been having an issue with Apex 8.1 and all other JVQ-built roms I've tried on my phone - when using the GB TW Launcher, my lockscreen is displayed over top of my home screen (rather than over a blank wallpaper) and upon unlocking the screen is completely unresponsive for about 3 seconds. Anyone know why this happens? Otherwise i love the features of this rom, great work!

Use Titanium Backup to save your data and then restore it.

I'm currently running ApeX 8.2, but I'm getting various problems (not as smooth/bootlooping once in awhile.)

This has never happened when using S7 or Mosaic V so i'm assuming the culprit is in fact the Kernel. Can anyone suggest any kernel besides Talon 4.1?
[Captivate Android Development] cnigro1279:
I just had this problem myself and I believe it is due to a TIBU update. Go to the market and update your version of TIBU and install Angry Birds fresh from the market. Then restore just the data through TIBU. worked for me!! Not really a huge deal but I would have been a bit upset if I lost all my game data. Hope this helps...
