How far it drops would all depend on how long it had been since the phone hit 100% charge.
[Captivate Android Development] leoriver42:
In my case it never really reaches 100% and then starts discharging, instead it jumps from 95%-98% directly to 100%, so when I unplug it it returns to where it was before the jump.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
You are lucky if you are seeing 98% after removing charger

Anyone have access to a 1.44ghz version of 0.3.2T2 or newer? I don't travel in the elite inner circles of kernel development :(
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
It doesn't matter. When the phone hit 100%, it will discharge by itself untill it reach ~95% then it will re-charge to 100% and do the same over and over again until you unplug the phone. It's a feature from Samsung to prevent the battery to burn/explode/die/etc...

The bug is when it doesn't restart charging after dropping to ~95%

Watsa, I explained this many times in this thread, can you make this sticky to OP please? :D
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Never below 97% here :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] bokaboka:
What I was originally talking about was a drop to around 75-80% after disconnecting the charger. After I turned my phone off last night to charge, I got 100% in the big green BIOS battery but when I booted in to Apex, it said "(charging 85%)", when I disconnected the cable, the battery icon jumps up to 100%. So basically I now have the same problem in reverse lol. I've yet to reflash everything though.
[Captivate Android Development] pparavas:
Myn always reaches 100% never had any such problems?:eek::rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] leoriver42:
Yes indeed :-P

The worst time It went down to 83, but with another rom, now I only get this thing but I think it's more of a calibration issue. Just wanted to report my case.

I'm calibrating right now and have spent 2 hours with maximum brightness and playing 3 games at once, with background data and maps activated, doing everything in my power; and I'm truly having the worst of times trying to get this thing to discharge. This goes beyond wonderful lol

Thank you :-))
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
It's just your battery stats that are messed up. Give it some time and it will be fine again.
[Captivate Android Development] GiXXerSTeveO:
Great battery life and a great rom i love it but the only complaint i have is that it randomly reboots. anybody else have a problem with that? and also has anybody else figured out how to get the music controls on the miui lockscreen to work?
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Can you tell us what you use, please? Kernel, launcher, music player...
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
I think it is the lock screen. I don't like it with the 4 tabs. I can tell you ever since I put my lock screen on the SGS 2 lock or other the REBOOTS stopped.

Try changing lock screen and see
[Captivate Android Development] monoespacial:
What is the timestamp fix for? Should I apply from recovery?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
whats the timestamp you see in your mms app? If its correct then you dont need to apply the fix
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Have you tried setting custom app?
[Captivate Android Development] GiXXerSTeveO:
the talon, the xperia launcher and the samsung music player. also i am having the same battery issue as others it says fully charged but i take it off and it is at 88%. i flashed it on a full battery as well.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Samsung music player works with SGS II, SGS, Epic & Puzzle lockscreens

Any other music player works with remaining lockscreens

As for random reboots does it happen on its own or is triggered by some action?
[Captivate Android Development] viewsonic11:
What is the best kernal 4 this Rom?

Sent from my phone
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
No I didn't that's probly why....however It has not happen to me on Apex. (but i never tried the 4 tab on apex) It did it for me on Dlev's new ROM. Only when that 4 tab lock was set. It's almost like a soft reboot ....screen flashes real fast, you hear startup sound and see media scan all in like 5 seconds and everything is normal. Again sorry this hasn't happen in Apex but it has in Dlevs. Keep up the great work Watsa !!! Apex is awesome!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
On any rom, you need to set custom app after the first boot else you will get reboots on MIUI & 4-Tab lockscreens.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
All of them should work. I prefer Talon which is already included
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
Boom there ya go! Thanks. Thought i read that a while back but i really don't like that lock screen so never used it. Was trying to respond to a previous post. definitely no complaints over here!
[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
Right, that's what I was referring to. The bug. :)
[Captivate Android Development] dc5ftw:
so you can just set ANY application? it doesnt matter which one?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Yes sir ANY

Any update on JVQ?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Holding it back till we can get the stock browser to work properly. There are not huge changes anyways between JVP & JVQ

Edit: There is a test version available but browser wont work
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
JVQ sucks :(
[Captivate Android Development] illini71:
Good rom! im getting great battery life, and its nice to see the Transparent Digital clock. Im using Talon 1200 makes things a bit faster, i think!
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
switched kernel to dark core 2.7.3 and modem to ZNKP1, OC'd to 1.2ghz with tegrak's OC app, replcaed TW4.5 with TW4 (less bug, as long as i know). been running flawlessly. you nailed it, again! :D
[Captivate Android Development] leoriver42:
Lol the digital clock is a must have for me after trying this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] leoriver42:
So the discharging process finally ended, I played Grow, Pardise Island and Angry Birds for three hours at maximum brightness with bluetooth, gps, maps, im, and background data enabled among others; played video, downloaded apps... My eyes are sore xD. Phone calibrated, and this is the best Rom I've tried. ^^

Its special, because the first rom I tried gave me 2 hour s max doing nothing! I really almost sued the guy who sold me the phone lol. Now I can have my Live Wallpaper and not freak out about battery.
[Captivate Android Development] TheShamsMan:
Hey guys,

Just flashed 7.3 again. This time from stock and it seems to be running a lot better.

Couple things I was wondering. When I change the animation settings under Device Customization, it will undo the CRT lock animation (while leaving the option ALL still checked under Display). Has anyone else noticed this? Is it not possible to have fast Window/Transition Animations and the CRT lock animation?

I was also wondering if the boot animation can be changed. If so, how?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
yea CRT animation would only work with normal, slow or very slow.

Rename your bootanimation.zip to sanim.zip, place in system/media and flash
[Captivate Android Development] TheShamsMan:
Thanks! I'll give it a go!
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
Really? Oh and browser issue is pretty much fixed :)

Watsaa, neway to add the new awesome miui lockscreens on ur already aesome rom? People may blast me for this, but i really hate the iphone look. Just love the sense 3.0 lockscreen implementation on miui....pls pls pls can sum1 make it work?
[Captivate Android Development] jonnyg1097:
Haha yea they are pretty awesome. I flashed to miui for that lockscreen alone. But after a day or so of being on MIUI I had to come back to his rom. If he could implement the lockscreen onto this rom I would stay on it forever.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
With same kernel & modem?
[Captivate Android Development] bokaboka:
I actually quite like puzzle lockscreen - it's simple, very easy to unlock and i like how different puzzle pieces show up for different things but it does this thing on Apex where the "puzzle board" is in the wrong orientation i.e. it's in horizontal/landscape orientation whereas the puzzle pieces aren't.

Having to unplug and plug back my earphones after every reboot. Is that a kernel characteristic? Is there any way around it?

[Captivate Android Development] tylercarter:
Nice! Where can i get 8.0?:-)
[Captivate Android Development] jgotti107:
Thanks...I like Mosaic but it seems kinda laggy and my flash isnt working even though a applied all the fixes etc...a few other bugs but thats a whole different story...I like the whole SGS II look of the Apex theme all together...(s/n: I just wanted to verify because I just recovered from a HARD brick...smh...a scary thing)...
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Flashing from ROM1 to ROM2 can at the most softbrick your phone. You can get a hard brick only when your bootloader combination is messed up.

Since you already have GB BLs and they are backward compatible, you shouldnt flash Froyo BLs again unless absolutely necessary
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
I see it... I want it...

Unleash the awesomeness!

Hey Great ROM once again. Thanks for all the hard work.

Edit: A small token of appreciation.

Thanks for feedback, and best of luck with your new ROM
[Captivate Android Development] jgotti107:
Wow I didn't know that they were backwards compatible...thats news to me...but I bricked during a Odin flash to GB. I just took my phone to AT&T and got a new one because I still had a warranty on mine...it was just the delay between trying to get it back in download mode...making a jig...I even took it to a repair shop. I was out of a phone for approx 3 days...Thanks for all of your help tho. I greatly appreciate it.

[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:

I guess that's the price we pay to stay current with the worst ROM ever created.

OK who sent you Miley, Adam? Your a plant, aren't you:D

How about going out of the room and offering something in the way of a donation to watsa Pp account.

Please read the forum rules about being constructive and not slamming people. This is a direct slam on the dev's, and not tolerated. Please don't start with such a morose intro, most everyone here is willing to help.

time to find dark core JVQ kernel :D
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
you dont need to find TW4 again though
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
What's the difference between the two? Haven't tried dark core.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
:p

10char
[Captivate Android Development] SlickyFats:
Oh thanks that's coming from the Dev. Y'all sure are nice around here. I post issues with a ROM and get bashed.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Ok now since you have tested my patience.

For FCs did it happen before TiBU restore?

using ATK? Where did you get that recommendation from?
[Captivate Android Development] SlickyFats:
I never do TiBu. I do everything from scratch to prevent issues. I don't back up anything or restore anything. i download everything from the market again. Takes me roughly 10 minutes to put my phone back together after a fresh flash.

i installed ATK because Android said nothing was running and my phone was bogging down. I installed ATK and it said at least 15 things were running and I had very little RAM left.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
You CAN remove the apps that come preloaded...

I think there's an app for that... Try SystemAppRemover. I always clean my installs when I flash. Just because a dev includes it, doesn't mean I like it or want it. Just remove it. I remove all but the launcher I use and several other things don't use. After flashing all those ROMs you still haven't figure that out?
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
the reason why i prefer dark core is because i purchased tegrak's OC app, so i can use it on dark core, best 2 bucks i've ever spent :D

seriously, i found dark core is very stable and consumes less juice. i am running dark core 2.7.3 JVP on apex 7.3 and didn't have any problems whatsoever.

just my $0.02 though ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Back on track...........

Someone needs to create a custom boot animation for this ROM. It needs and deserves it's own. I liked the nikkid chic, but my wife and two daughters didn't. I am graphically challenged so I'm of no help, but someone with some skills needs to hook one up.
[Captivate Android Development] SlickyFats:
i haven't needed to. I generally go with ROMs with little to no stuff added into them. I have never seen Social Hub before and never had the email app run all the time either though.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Talon has been very good to me in the battery department, but I am up for giving it a go. WHen you find it, can you post up a link and maybe PM me? I have to head out to my pool league and won't be available for a few hours at least.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
@slickyfats

an easy trick, install winrar or 7zip on your computer. open downloaded ROM zip, go into system/app, you can delete anything you want from there. then flash away.

don't forget to factory reset from settings/privacy or just simply reboot into recovery to wipe data/factory reset.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
It sounds like a bad flash then. Why not wait for 8.0 to drop and give it a go. Your first post rubbed ppl the wrong way with the first line.. worst ROM ever?

Did you ever try anything by KingKang back in the HTC Magic days? Never said anything about his being the worst though.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
sure thing bud.
[Captivate Android Development] SlickyFats:
I do erase everything beforehand. Format internal SD Card, Master Clear, Wipe ALL Caches.
[Captivate Android Development] SlickyFats:
This is the first Android I have owned and I have been Flash crazy since it released. I used to do this on my BB's but it wasn't nearly as organized as these forums are.

And you are right....it may not be the worst ROM, but it has been the worst experience i have had with a ROM as of yet. The charging thing was the kicker.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
don't use master clear on odin, it didn't work, at least for me.

another trick i learned from good'ol samsung winmo phone, i was actually cooking winmo ROMs for i900/i8000

1. after flashing, dial *2767*3855#, the phone will auto factory reset for ya and format your internal sd card as well (we call it hard reset on winmo), so basically you'll have a 100% clean ROM.

2. on some kernels, talon, for example, after you dial the above code, it'll wipe your sd card too, but it'll boot into recovery. don't panic, everything is fine here. do a data wipe/factory reset in recovery then reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Charge bug is random. Reflash and it could be gone.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Awful quiet after the bomb drops ain't it.........
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:

[Captivate Android Development] lowlymarine:
Typically this is the result of installing a CWM3 zip from CWM2.x. What ROM did you come from?

Watsaa.....why you make 8.0!!!!!! :mad: Loved 7.3, pretty sure I will love this. Thanks for your work good sir.
[Captivate Android Development] darcjrt:
So now.that I have the talon kernel I should reflash to fix it? I was on cognition 4
[Captivate Android Development] lowlymarine:
Yup, Cog4 uses CWM 2.5, so you should reflash again now that you're on CWM3.

Hey Watsaa, loving your Rom, I just flashed 7.3 last weekend and im having the best battery life and smothness even with lagfix disable....

I was using the Dark Core kernel in Mosaic V and i think it's a little brithness, but im going to try it again with Apex 8.0.

Has the Blue Mod in your webpage works with Apex 8? I Just love that Mod!

Thank you so much for your success creating the Worst ROM i have tried Ever!!;)
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
ok, so there are 10 beers you were talking about. i would be trashed if i drink that much :D

anyway, here is dark core JVQ kernel, i pulled from Dlev 3.5 since that's a JVQ ROM. enjoy

p.s. this is not a flashable file, need to drag and drop into ROM zip

- Fix puzzle unlock background being vertically stretched

- Allow apps from unknown sources by default

- Internet calling submenu is missing from the "call settings" menu

JVQ Browser

Can anyone comment on how well the browser is working on the latest (8.0) ROM? I know there have been issues with the JVQ browser in the past, but supposedly when it works, it works extremely well and is a big improvement over JVP. Is that the case with this ROM, or are there still JVQ browser issues on deoxeded roms?

Also, how is auto-brightness working?

A list of known issues on the first post (or somewhere!) would be really helpful.

Thanks!
