apex 10.0 from Pinnacle

hey guys one quick question?.

after flashing apex 10.0 coming from Pinnacle.. do you have to enable Ext4 lag fix? .. or its automatically on after flashing apex 10?

thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
No worries. We can wait!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Four :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
I'm pretty sure it converts automatically.
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
On the first boot, you'll hear a female robotic voice during the kernel boot screen. While she's talking, the kernel is reformatting the correct partitions from RFS to Ext4 without any further input from you required.
[Captivate Android Development] Demonic240:
Correction.. the link that was posted for the direct download for TW4 shows as having TouchWiz30Launcher.apk in the zip. I've tried flashing it but nothing new happens. I even removed the old TW3.apk from the system folder but it still won't flash.
[Captivate Android Development] t3chn0s1s:
Ok, so do you think it was a bad flash? I don't get how it wouldn't allow me to enter a 4th icon? TW4 defaults to just 1 icon when it boots up right? And then you have to add the other 3? At least, that's how it showed up for me. I flashed back to stock and started over before flashing Apex 10. I used I897 bootloaders. How did I go wrong?
[Captivate Android Development] Demonic240:
Did you actually flash TW4? Apex 10 comes with TW3 installed by default.
[Captivate Android Development] iXNyNe:
So, is anyone else getting extraordinarily poor GPS results with a10?

I'm checking /data/gps for the Lyon files and not seeing anything. Any suggestions?
[Captivate Android Development] Demonic240:
Try a different modem? I had to switch to JV6 for my data/gps to work properly.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
everything is correct, it does come with only 1 icon by default. It cannot be a bad flash, so try adding 4th icon... Try and add it right on left of app icon
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Even TW3 let you have 4 icons.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
what do u mean by wont flash?
[Captivate Android Development] Demonic240:
I go to CWM and install the TW4addon.zip file and it says it installed successfully. When I reboot my phone I don't have a TW4 homescreen option.
[Captivate Android Development] t3chn0s1s:
I'm redownloading the ROM and trying again. I'm telling you - it was weird. It let me add 2 icons (to the left of the home app icon) but it wouldn't add the 4th. I did flash it after the ROM and downloaded it from the link you put on one of the prior pages and didn't pull it out of the ROM zip. Weird. Let me try this again
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
I just did the battery mod and I'm uploading it now.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
lol thanks :D
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
Lemme know when it's up; I'll Guinea pig it.
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Np. There's a charging xml that needs to be placed in the drawable folder, that makes it spin right when it's charging. It took me the longest time to figure it out lol

---------- Post added at 05:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 AM ----------

All good to go.
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
It might not. Especially if you did things in following order -

Apex 9.x --> Convert to RFS --> Pinnacle 1.x --> Apex

In that case it won't provided that you have not deleted "Voodoo" folder from your sd-card. If you have deleted it before flashing Apex, you must be back on EXT4 automatically. This folder keeps track of what filesystem you opted to use last time.
[Captivate Android Development] t3chn0s1s:
EDIT: I am a RETARD. It worked this time. YAH! Thank you Watsa again for your patience, time and devotion!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Added stock JVS GPS to OP if that helps
[Captivate Android Development] marcopolo1:
Thanks guys finally Apex 10.. and yes, the lady talked to me .. i missed her!
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
Caleb:

Strike two. It's still rotating images when charging.
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
I concur.

One of the images became a GPS icon if that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] t3chn0s1s:
Ok, I am officially convinced my phone HATES TW4. After flashing the add-on and trying to recreate the problem I had with TW4 on 9.3 I was able to duplicate it precisely. When I run Netflix it just locks up and reboots. It even did it when I tried to send a text message. It just becomes unresponsive and if left alone for a minute or more it just spontaneously reboots. I love TW4 but I guess I have NO choice but stick with TW3 just to be safe. How disappointing. Oh well. :(
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
and thats why u have a better looking TW3 on apex :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] marcopolo1:
Hey watsa. I under apn add new. And after filling up with all the info and hitting save.. .but it does not save it..

EDIT: I REBOOT THE PHONE AND NOW WORKS
[Captivate Android Development] Exostenza:
Can I run DC4.0 with Apex 9.3 and do I need to calibrate the battery after flashing a kernel? I am pretty sure I remember that I don't...
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
I think DC 4.0 should work with Apex 9.3

No you don't need to recalibrate battery after kernel flash.
[Captivate Android Development] t3chn0s1s:
And for THAT I am truly truly grateful!
[Captivate Android Development] :
What does Stock JVS GPS do that I would want it over what the rom already has?
[Captivate Android Development] F1reEng1neRed:
I wouldn't do it. According to the DarkyROM website, DC 4.0 is for JVS ONLY.

http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/rom-2-3-5-cwm-i9000-i897-darkyrom-jvs-base.5427/page-3#post-111051

[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Add this to system/app using root explorer...
[Captivate Android Development] F1reEng1neRed:
I believe Apex 10 has the PB fix. Stock JVS will be, you know, just stock.:)
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Correct.. If GPS doesnt work then at least u can be on stock settings
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
Thanks for the info!
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
I know, but I was sure I moved that file too :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] nm131:
heyy how many of you have unstable wifi?

It's disconnect after using for 1minute just a few seconds(maybe 1 sec) then says connected

It's quite hard to realize this issue because my friend(also captivate) also has this issue but he didn't realize it
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Trust me not everyone has it. I was connected to wifi whole day and works like it always has
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
Unfortunately, I have the wifi issue as well which means I can't stay on Apex 10. Is the process to go back to 9.3 just flashing the update, or do I need to flash the entire thing?

My guess is the entire thing so that I can ensure that the wifi issue goes away.
[Captivate Android Development] minlee85:
watsa..thank you for the great rom...i have a dumb question...you didn't change the modem from 9.3, did you?? I used get over 3000kbps dn and 1500kpbs up with 9.3 but now i only get 500 kbps dn and 200 kbps up on speed test...:confused::confused::confused:
[Captivate Android Development] d_gritza:
No charge bug or wifi issue here. All smooth sailing on Apex 10! Battery life seems to be on par with 9.3 (only 2days of trial so take it with a grain of salt).

Watsa. I flashed TW4 but the performance is meh. Anyway to revert to TW3?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] RTBee:
Yes, and No :)

It's already been tried with no problems :)
[Captivate Android Development] aclockwrk:
I installed the Stock_JVS_GPS.zip from recovery but now the phone is stuck on the Galaxy S screen. Can I get the the Apex 10 GPS zip?
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Could be that it wasn't the right one. I had to try different xml files before i found one that worked.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
nah you can flash it over apex 10 been doing that the whole day trying to figure out why the our wifi is borked hard to say that it only happen to few people like us :(
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Grrrr. I'll check it out when I have time. I have to go to class today.
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
Thanks - but my question is can I flash the 9.2 to 9.3 update or do I have to go back to flash the 9.2 Full ROM first?

Do you have one of the early Captivates? I do. Also, were you coming from the Talon kernel with 9.3 or DC. I was coming from Talon.
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
+1 Still have rotating images when charging........although it is kinda funny :p

Hopefully after a little sleep we can straighten this stuff out, I'm at work so not much help today :(

---------- Post added at 09:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 AM ----------

If your going back from 10 to 9.3, you need to flash 9.2 first then update 9.3 You cannot just flash 9.2 to 9.3 update as it doesn't contain the entire Rom, only the updated files :)
[Captivate Android Development] Crash:
This is a great rom but I think go back to Apex 9.3 for now ;)
[Captivate Android Development] ctleng76:
I also am having a problem with the TW4 addon, and I don't have Netflix installed. It got to the point where I couldn't go more than an hour without having to pull the battery and reboot. I finally switched over to the GB launcher and all is well. Is the TW4 launcher maybe designed specifically for dual core phones? It just does not run well, at least on the Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
I am also experiencing slower download speed than on apex9.3.

I flashed from pinnacle I wonder if that could be a factor.
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
No modem change. KC1 has been in every Apex release(I'm pretty sure)
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
Yes I am sure it is not the modem I have always used kc1 and it has been superb.

reception is still fine always full bars but download speed is slow for some reason.
[Captivate Android Development] RTBee:
On 10.0 since yesterday and no problems with wifi. I'm on build 1007 if it matters to anyone. ROM is running smooth and quick, KC1 modem is same as when I was on 9.3. No complaints so far! :)
[Captivate Android Development] Crash:
Guys did someone have the links to download apex 9.2 and 9.3 (update file) :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
OP FTW.

omg 10char
[Captivate Android Development] t3chn0s1s:
So I must report back that Apex 10 is working beautifully running TW3. My WIFI works fine and no problems thus far. My only complaint and this is hardly an issue is that out of the numerous times I have flashed back to stock and flashed Apex 9.3 or 10 whatever launcher I choose gets locked in permanently. I lose the ability to clear the defaults of the Home app. Not sure if anyone else has noticed this situation but it has consistently plagued me since I began my journey with Apex. Otherwise, this ROM runs smooth as butter. Thank you to all who have contributed to this awesome project! I am truly quite grateful.

[Captivate Android Development] Jack45:
omg +1

wtf
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
Great ROM.

Only issues:

1. Sometimes the home is not kept in memory. If you go to an app for longer than 30 sec, your launcher gets killed and when you hit home it has to reload the launcher and the app drawer.

2. It is a bit laggy with delayed responses, but it is a new ROM so I am sure there are some kinks to work out.

3. Alarm icon cannot be made invisible, despite the option setting.

Feature requests:

1. Battery percentage on lock screen
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
Download homesmack from market you'll be able to choose launcher again.
[Captivate Android Development] iXNyNe:
I tested the included pb3 in apex 10, the pb3 beta package directly from Ryan (presumably the same thing included in a10), and the stock jvs GPS from the op. All borked.

Ryan had me testing pb3 on apex 9.3 before a10 was released and it worked fine (really well actually, super fast locks and perfect tracking).

Ill try reflashing a10, I just redownloaded a new copy (same md5 though, so I don't think that's the issue).

Ill try GPS fresh after flash (before restoring titanium) as well to see if that helps.

Wifi

Flashed 10.0 last night and unfortunately I seem to have the wifi connect/disconnect issue as well. I'll still be sticking with it though, because this TW4 works beautifully! Hopefully you can get to the bottom of the wifi issue, watsa.

Anyone who's had the wifi issue found a cure? Reflash? Flash from stock? I came straight from 9.3 with a wipe/reset and dalvik/cache clear. :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] s1l3nt:
everything running great with latest talon 1200mhz. can you add aosp music on the next update?
[Captivate Android Development] mrcpu:
I don't know, I just know all my market downloads are failing due to lack of space. According to tibu, my sdcard and external sd card have gigs free, the internal card has 1gb free, but market downloads that exceed a few megabytes are failing with no space errors.

I assumed the /tmp partition or something was too small.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Thats a problem with new market in general. I would start by clearing cache/data for market first
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
Running 10 since yesterday morning and am quite pleased. Battery seems better to me over 9.2-9.3. No WiFi issues at all, in fact it's faster than data connection. Only two things so far, GPS just plain sucks, was better (not great) on 9.3 and occaisonally there's a bit of lag on tw4 but that's it.

Hey minlee are you on Captivate or I9000 bootloader? I am on captivate bl and having the slow download speed issue
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Nope just flash them from Apex 8.x flasher kit on website
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
thank you you are a life saver.
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
That may be something that removes the issue, but it's not a solution. I only have access to do that on my own router, but I have this issue with all routers.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Being a lifesaver I would advice to never flash BL again
[Captivate Android Development] minlee85:
im on i9000
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Just change modem and come back to KC1 to see if that helps. However it might be related to network too
[Captivate Android Development] hernan078:
I have tried the TW4 that watsa posted a while back because the one that came with the ROM, had problems, and i keep getting freeezes, I want to use the TW4 launcher, but I cant deal with the freezes and the reboots, what else can i do to enjoy the TW4 launcher?

PS: I have also tried the TW4.5 and i keep getting reboots, if i change my kernel, for example to Talon, would that, maybe resolve my problem?Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
Ok first of all I would like to thank Watsa for being such an awesome dev. Apex 10 is the best rom of them all.

I guess every cappy is different as pinnacle runs perfect for a lot of people, but for my cappy apex 10 is just awesome.

Everything so smooth. Memory leak no more. OC to 1.3 using Tegrak. Runs Samurai II and Cordy like no other rom.

Download speed was an issue but I flashed jvs modem and it downloads lot faster but reception is not as good.

I'll probably try a few more modems and report back. Strange as KC1 has always given me the best result.
[Captivate Android Development] minlee85:
That's what I did...I change it to JV6 and came back to kc1..but no difference. like I mentioned before, i used to get 3000kpbs with 9.3. weir:(:(ed...
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Nope it wont.. enjoy TW3 built into Apex :p
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
Try JVS modem from the modem thread. Click on the paperclip and you will see it.

It is a lot faster for me on JVS modem and i will go back to KC1 and try.

Can someone help me? I can't find a security setting anywhere related to this.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Ok its not ROM specefic. What I think might be happening is when you are for e.g scrolling on TW4 it scales your frequency to a very high level.. And if you have a very extensive task running in the background it scales even higher than your phone can handle..

Result: Reboot

Just flashed apex 10 fresh no titanium backup and GPS is still borked. I'm going down to 9.1 (happen to have a copy laying around) hopefully I get it working. If it works I'll end up back on 9.3, if not I guess I'll have go jf6 which sucks because my CPU is down at the moment (blown capacitors) so I have no way of doing it.

9.1 gps works fine... Just a10 having issues... I'll try one more time but if that fails I'm gonna download 9.3 and stick with it until a fix is released for a10.

As I mentioned before I don't believe this is caused by the plumbbob beta since I had it properly working on 9.3 before a10 was released and also the stock gps files make no difference on a10

another side note I downloaded a fresh copy of a10 twice, both had same md5.
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
GPS never connects for me. Worked on 9.3 so I guess I'll go back to it. Something's hinky as GPS test only ever see's one satellite.

And when u flashed stock GPS files you cleared GPS data just to be sure? Also there is a GPS fix from nexus s lying around if u click the paper clip on Apex title. Those are the files included in 9.x

Did you guys try this is in the first post :D
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
Yep. That's the problem I had, too. Apparently it doesn't happen to everyone, but there are definitely a few people.

Apparently, it's not an issue with the ROM or the kernel which means it's not going to be addressed. I'm faced with going back to 9.3 (which worked just fine for me) or switching ROMs for a bit.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Came from Pinnacle until 1.3 comes out. I am running this, the newest Talon 1200, MattedBlues, and Launcher 7 (idk I like it).

I have no wifi issues, or anything. I don't use GPS, so I can't comment on that.

Correct i think is Kernel problems :(
[Captivate Android Development] marcopolo1:
My phone is laggy and for the first time i saw a message saying my phone is out of memory.. at the same time, GPS does not work, i cant lock any sats even outside ( no buildings ) .

I wanted to try to flash JVS stock GPS but i read some people having issues , the phone gets stuck on samsung galaxy ...

maybe back to 9.3?

Its a matter of time and someone will fix it.

[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
Yeah - there's no doubt you can't fix what you can't see.

Apex is probably my favorite ROM I've run on my phone, so I don't mind to be patient to wait for the fix....it's just I'll have to wait on something other than Apex 10. ;-)
