Since update 1 everything is running along very smoothly! No Fc's, no wifi issues, etc. Looking forward to further updates. I'm an, however looking for a battery icon that displays more than 5% increments, I'm currently using matted blues theme.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Do u want to give a shot at UOT for getting 1% battery mod? else i can do it for you..
[Captivate Android Development] airtower:
please share if you do! 5% seems pretty pointless to me.
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
I might, although I was considering crysis new glowing battery mod in the themes section. Some have had some issues with it though.

Btw gps worked flawlessly for me yesterday, 30 min ride :)
[Captivate Android Development] mpanary_fako:
got the charging bug this morning :(

i charged the phone all night and woke up with 89%

anyone else?
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
woke up to 90%

I almost cried when I saw it drop from 100% when I unplugged, as I thought this issue was taken care of.
[Captivate Android Development] Mortem Tuam:
same here woke up to 87%......I unplugged it and plugged it back in while I got ready for work, came back to it 30mins later and it said Full
[Captivate Android Development] airtower:
I've always had it on Apex...I thought it was GB "feature". They did get it fixed on CM7 thought.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
blame samsung if you want to
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Viv almost crying? LOL. J/K.

Yeah, I got it, too. Dropped to 83% from 100%. I thought I was going batty at first.
[Captivate Android Development] Mortem Tuam:
LOL :D

I actually didnt think anything of it until someone posted it here....its not a huge deal for me as I have a charger in my car and at home. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Mortem Tuam:
watsaa

check out my wallpaper thread. my latest one looks SICK on the phone :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] mpanary_fako:
i thought 2.3.4 fixed the charging bug :confused:

oh well, still an awesome ROM, thanks watsaa :)

can't wait for that new secret extra special talon kernel :p
[Captivate Android Development] F1reEng1neRed:
You know, I've heard a ton of people saying they have this issue. For some reason, it's never happened to me (knocks on wood). The most I can ever say I had it was that it dropped to 98. I've used several different ROMs and kernal combinations, but never had it like you describe. I wonder if it's just certain blocks of phones that are susceptible to it or something like that.
[Captivate Android Development] Mortem Tuam:
yes, I do like the ROM alot :)

thanks watsaa :cool::cool:
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
That new wallpaper will be the default wallpaper in Update-2 :eek:

ahh jsut moved from cm7 to this! wondering if thers drivers for this pc cant seem to install its drivers o.O! lol eitherway so far everything is smooth <3

EDIT. ahh nevermind my pc was acting wierd lol!
[Captivate Android Development] cbasse:
This didn't work for me...after uninstalling, and then reinstalling via the installer they e-mailed me, it doesn't show up as an option in the text menu or Input Method menus... ???
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
windows???
[Captivate Android Development] airtower:
Uninstall and try again. The installer downloads swype itself and it has to "license" it after it installs. It will walk you through everything, just be sure not to switch apps or anything.

Also, don't reflash mattedblues expecting to get the themed keyboard. It will put you back to an older version of swype.

Volume

My volume is lower than on other ROMs. I have tried several modems and even installed another ROM to see if it was all in my head (only the voices), and the other ROM was significant louder.

Using Xcal on both ROMs with JK4, JL2, JL3, KC1.

Any other way to increase the volume other than modem (and volume button)?
[Captivate Android Development] Mortem Tuam:
I've played guitar for 26 years, on stage and very loud, everything is hard to hear to me.....so I couldn't tell you if there is a volume problem with mine LMAO....I use an AUX cable to go through my car speakers and have that at full volume so I can hear my phone calls....:eek:
[Captivate Android Development] Barsky:
I have to agree. I noticed this in 6.5-6.6 and still do in 7, but to a lesser degree.

But I still have the Home Key going crazy periodically problem, which I have had with all above mentioned versions. Still sticking with it :-)
[Captivate Android Development] JustinUhhh:
Does xcal's kernel support voodoo sound control? I know talon does but i have never used xcal's. (I replaced it with Talon in my update file.)
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Yup, I have worked with explosives for about 30 years with 16 being in EOD. I am using a BT external speaker and it is all the way up.

I really like the ROM but I have to hear "the boss" for work :p
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Yupper.

Whats included:

-Proper screen rotation

-HSUPA support

-MobileAP support (aka wireless tethering)

-Correct Headphone/Speaker logic

-Working capacitive touchkeys

-Captivate car/home dock support

-Audio uses dock when available (use this app)

-Wired headset support

-CWM 3.0 recovery (courtesy of Chainfire)

-Support for custom boot animations

-Voodoo color fix

-Voodoo sound v9

-Compilation optimizations

-Call audio through dock

-Voodoo lagfix

-BLN support
[Captivate Android Development] JustinUhhh:
Well you can raise the volume output through that?
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Dumb question. Is the Voodoo sound controller a market app?
[Captivate Android Development] pwnerman:
Glad you got it working

you have to download the voodoo control app from the market and turn up the headphone amplifier BUT voodoo only increases headphone output not the actual cell phone

huhu xpak is angry :p

were u able to get volume up so that u can "hear" ur boss

@watsaa

Been on 7 and update 1 for a couple days now. Very good work.

Are you going to do some work on the 2.3.3 for i897 when it drops tomorrow on Sam Firmware?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
I would love to but i am hoping that it is not as laggy as 2.3.3 for I9000 was. 2.3.4 just blows away 2.3.3
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
STOP IGNORING ME! :p
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
lol buddy i wasnt

update-2 is in progress, trying to include lots of things in it.

what name u suggesting?
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
I agree. 2.3.4 is far less laggy.

I need my phone to actually scroll and open the dialer without puking.
[Captivate Android Development] F1reEng1neRed:
LOL!

I wonder if the devs could extract what they need to be able to take advantage of the audience chip in the cappy. I'm still assuming that just like with Froyo, that the audience chip couldn't be taken advantage of in custom roms until the actual source for the cappy dropped. Is that ROM or kernel related?
[Captivate Android Development] F1reEng1neRed:
I think we should wait and see if it's worth a crap first. Like you said, if is laggy, what's the point?

I remember all the hype about official froyo. When we finally got it, I think a lot of people were pretty disappointed.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
lol i meant new name for slacker
[Captivate Android Development] wickedninjalo:
First of all love the rom! Great job. I'm having a big problem though and it doesn't matter wether I'm on the o.g. release of 7 or update 1. I'm experiancing hot reboots then phone will try to boot and go through boot animation for about ten seconds then the screen will go black and nothing will happen. and no matter how many times I reboot the phone won't boot.any ideas

I don't care if you call it 'Rectum'

Make it fly and people will flash the hell out of it.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
phone reboots on its own?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
lol yea that was funny
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Is your phone plugged in when it happens?

Yes sir reboots on it's own and at the most random times. I can't see any connections

How long are you waiting on the black screen before you reboot it?

Black screen freaked me first go too.... just wait it out.

If it just keeps failing, reflash, then just wait about 10 minutes for it to boot. It should get there... thought the black screen is a nightmare.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
It sure is, xcal has a very nice explanation for it on this thread.
[Captivate Android Development] wickedninjalo:
Waited twenty minutes yesterday. And I've reflashed like 6-7 times

Sent from my Gingerbread Captivate! (this thing should've came with a cape!)

i am confused :confused:

U get reboots while flashing or u already have apex installed?
[Captivate Android Development] wickedninjalo:
Already have it running.

[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
hmm strange, i have not heard of reboots on apex 7 till now

the only time phone reboots is when MIUI lockscreen is used without setting custom app
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Would like to read it but can't find the post. Is it buried in the middle somewhere?

Battery Mod

I just whipped up a Crysis Battery icon from UOT kitchen. This is for use with Apex 7. Just flashed via CWM and can confirm it working nicely :D

Btw This will break your theme if you have flashed one, it broke mattedblues for me but I wanted a battery with 1% increments.

Yeah but they aren't autoformatted. They are distorded though. Its kinda odd.

Something has broken Swype 3.0. Worked before i flashed.

Reverted back to stock swype until someone figures this out, or until I flash again.

RE update2

Since it's being called an update, it should be no wipe, yes?
[Captivate Android Development] juxtyce:
Same issue here. Usually my FB contacts come right into my Contact list, but currently on this ROM, they just don't seem to be syncing.

Watsaa, if you need a tested for this (FB Contacts, and the Samsung IM) just let me know.

Default Keyboard??

Anyone having trouble changing their default keyboard? Ive tried changing it in locale and text and every time it still defaults to samsung keypad.

waitin' for the goodies & the new kernel

Any news on the FB SNS contacts issue? Not major but would be nice.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
I'm not trying to steer you away from Apex, but did you check out the Erebos Swype theme on Mosaic? It's got a black glass look and they've done a wonderful job.

It's not that I can't do this or am lazy, but just wondering if you knew about that one. If you liked it, then you could pull out the apk and lib file from that theme and inject into what you are currently running.

I tend to try to maintain a minimal approach to the keyboards, hence the grid look, but if there is a different glass appearance you are looking for other than the one on Erebos, then PM me a description.

FYI --- I have been playing around with embossments and bevels lately, but no promises whatsoever. LOL.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Haven't tried Mosaic to see the Swype theme. I'll yank the files when I get home though and check it out on this ROM. I probably should check that ROM out at some point anyway. I have a spare cap for testing.

Im trying to dl apex 7 it comes up apex.htm and cant flash. What is the issue?

Sent from my 2.3.3 Ext4 Fresh Ginger Blue equipped Samsung Captivate. Yea I get 2000+ on quadrant. Yea ive pulled 5.17 mbps down from a tower. I appreciate XDA helping me turn this phone into a beast.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Sounds like you need something like Astro File Manager on your phone. Make sure it is set to download from browser also.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Been on the ROM a few days now and only found the following

"issues"

Social Hub possibly interferes with FB to the point of not allowing FB updates and media to be viewed from Contact selection. I am guessing this is Samsung's way to make us use Social Hub. To see if this was indeed the case I flashed both Cognition and Serendipity Froyo ROMs on the wife's phone where contacts can access all FB information. Ideally I don;t want to see any "green" icons on my contact list. The Blue FB icons seem to indicate the FB information is available through contacts.Apk I did remove Social Hub Apk through RootExplorer but that did not solve the problem.

All of a sudden Chrome to Phone doesn't work (This is not a ROM issue but something is broke on all versions lately. Error connecting. Bummer because I use that a lot to send downloads to the phone from computers I cannot hook up to.

I did not experience any charging issues in the AM but I am reading 2.3.4 may not have solved that issue.

Excals's Kernel is still the best for my device. I would go for more bleeding edge experimentation after the ROMS are more stable.

Otherwise this is a great ROM...

Why does this ROM use Social Hub? Do that many people use it over say TweetDeck or some other APK that doesn't require a EULA allowing a third party access to Social media accounts? IS Social Hub indeed causing Contacts not to display FB status and Friend Media?

Before I switch ROMs once again, I decided to see if this is a common issue or unique to my set up

I have been trying to learn to do some basic changes to icons in status bar to keep myself occupied :rolleyes: while i patiently wait for you to update the themes :cool: i found this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14675779&postcount=2626 which seems to suggest that it is fairly simple. does this make sense to you. I tried following the instructions but when i put the "update" into the system/app i lose the status bar compleatly Thankfully I have been able to go back to the origanal settings without a fresh flash

For the life of me I cannot get this rom to install. It looks like it will install then boots out and goes back to stock.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
What are the steps you are following? This is the first report of its kind
[Captivate Android Development] SeriousBizznass:
I don't know. I almost think I had a damaged download. This isn't my first Android handset, and I know my way around flashing. This one just doesn't want to flash for me. I may try again later, as I'm back on Cognition.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Sorry dude, but if you don't tell us what you did, no one can help you... I never heard anything about a problem like yours, so you probably did something wrong... Or you didn't explain the whole problem...
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
So this rom includes a different transition animations and not the usual fade animation?
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Yes but if you want stock animations it's easy to put them back in.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
I am working on blue theme, will post in a day or two
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
This may be the case of bad download. Flashing this ROM is not different from flashing any other ROM
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
How? I want the stock animation. :)
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Just drop the res/anim folder in framework-res.apk from stock ROM to framework-res.apk of this ROM
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
Would that mess up the theme or not?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
No it will just change the animations
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
As long as you don't change anything else the theme will remains the same.
[Captivate Android Development] eatonjb:
Want to try this Rom, do I really need to go back to stock, or can I just Clockwork it over my cognition rom?

Is is not mandatory to go back to stock, but it def gives a cleaner install. Please make sure that you have disabled lagfix before flashing this over Cog
[Captivate Android Development] bobapunk:
I have been following this thread for a while now. Once I see your Blue Theme, I might just have to flash! I have been wanting a gingerbread flavored ROM for a while, but I want to keep the blue key presses (instead of GB Orange) and notification icon colors (I want the gingerbread Icons, but I want them blue instead of green).

BTW. Right now I am on AT&T 2.2 (KB1).

I have SGS Tools installed and I see your ROM listed in it.

Can I some how flash your ROM right from SGS Tools?
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
Thanks, I'll try it next week. I'm using Continuum right now, I want to try all the available roms out there so I could choose which one is better. :)
[Captivate Android Development] eatonjb:
Thank you sir, disabled Lag fix and did all the CW Jazz.. works great.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
yes ROM was added to SGS tool yesterday, you should be able to download and install ROM from there too.

Blue theme is in progress and would be a very clean and minimal themed bluebread :D

How do I rearrange my Apps alphabetically in Apex 7's twlauncher? I guess watsaa threw out TW4 for good eh?
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
There is an app on the market called TW App Sorter

You can also hit Menu and then view, I believe.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Launcher is stock TW3 from JVP for now, TW4 will be back as soon as i can get it to work properly without any lag.

A pathetic solution to rearrange icons would be clear data for launcher, restart it.. but u will lose ur launcher configuration in doing so.

I am sure u know this already
