You can download gps test and gps toolbox from the market.

Yes, rebooted. Working now! Thanks!

i will remember this as lagfix was enabled when i restored the apps+data using Titanium. Also learnt that I should have not installed the lookout as it scans every single app installed. Anyways looks like i still experiencing random freezes which was reported in 9.2 notes even though i have 9.3.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
You are experiencing it due to TW4. A10 is without TW4 and there are no freezes/lockups

Hello! Just re-rooted my phone and installed Apex 10 and am having a problem...

After installing it, there was, im assuming, the first setup process where the phone is "speaking" to you, but the screen was scrambled. Many times when i boot up the phone, i get the same scrambled screen before the Galaxy S animation, and when "attempting" to get into CWM, my phone either shuts off rather than going into CWM, or when it does make it in, i get the same scrambled screen but i can see two CWM screens at the bottom that are scrambled and side by side, and i can only barely make out a few options, and i can only make them out because im so familiar with it!

Here's a screenshot of the scrambled screen. Its not as bad when in CWM, but i cant get back into CWM anymore to be able to post a SS of that one.

​

Any ideas? I did a full wipe and went back to stock, rooted it, enabled side loading (used AIO for all this), and then since AIO wouldnt work to put Apex on the phone, i had to manually copy the zip to the internal SD card which is where AIO was tryin to put it, so than i rebooted into CWM, did a wipe, cleared all the cashes and the dalvik on the advanced screen, then manually installed the update from the zip file and thats when it all began..

you need to flash a gingerbread bootloader download the apex flasher on the apex site and follow it
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
this screen is because u havent flashed GB bootloaders as mentioned in instructions. No matter which GB rom u try u need GB bootloaders
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
^^I had that same screen a week ago. Here's what I did. I turned off the phone> pulled all cards out of the back + the batt> put batt back in> used jig (or if no jig, see if button combo works) to go into download mode>reflashed JF6 and started over, flashing the Apex flasher
[Captivate Android Development] PMad:
Ahh ok I see, yeah I was on the site and the instructions for everything says its in the download but I don't see it?

Thank you tomween1

This worked.

The first time I flashed A10 it got stock in Galaxy S screen.

I flashed a second time and it worked fine now. Not sure what happened the first time.

One question I have is can I install TW4 -- I read in the forums that many people have freeze issues with TW4. Is there a version of TW4 compatible with A10 ?

Thanks!

---------- Post added at 07:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:54 AM ----------

Another quick question I have.

When I had Froyo 2.2, the keys at the bottom will light up anytime I would tab on the screen. Now with A10 they do not light up unless I actually tab on them.

Is there a setting for this?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
While watsa has explained that TW4 will work see his comment here TW3 is much more stable and looks great on A10
[Captivate Android Development] Crash:
Try BLN APP from market i use and fix the light problem
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:

[Captivate Android Development] id10terrordfw:
I have to say, TW4 seems to be working great with the BIGMEM Talon kernel and the V6 Supercharger scripts, hardly any noticeable lag.

It has been a while since I've used the restore in cwm. I tried to restore a apex 10 bu but the phone never got past the galaxy s screen... Hmmmm what am I missing/
[Captivate Android Development] ak789:
I dont want to move to A10 yet as its not stable as per the forums, once its gets stable i will move to th A10 for sure. Is there any way in A9.3 to fix the freeze issue, or if i can move back to TW3 so that i dont stuck with freezes ? :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
HUH :eek:
[Captivate Android Development] arabcamel:
I actually use TW4.5 customized. I found some really nice features in that custom version.
[Captivate Android Development] t3chn0s1s:
Apex 10 is quite stable. If you read thru the thread you will see one common instability issue and that is caused by Touchwiz4 NOT Apex. TW4 was never intended to run on the Captivate. I speak from my own personal experience that using TW4 will cause lag and reboots but TW3 runs perfectly smooth without the slightest hiccup. By all means, if you're happy with 9.3 stay with it but 10 runs just fine for me.

[Captivate Android Development] doctorbva:
I've tried Apex with Both DarkyCore 4 and Talon's latest Dev version. Talon seems to have a leak, which creates a lag. Bottom line, I've had better luck with DC which comes with Apex Flasher.

Hey Tom, I've had to restore mine several times (usually trying to get PDiddy's theme installed :o), and all I've ever done is CWM recovery, restore, wipe Dalvik cache (like you told me) then reboot. It has worked for me each and every time. :) I'm sure you're doing that so not sure what's different. I do my backups with ROM Manager instead of CWM if that makes any difference. (I guess the CWM backup is what's called nandroid bu?)

I've been using DC4 since I flashed Apex 10 and has been running solid for me, no problems other than the ones I cause. :o (see above)

camera too dark...

I am still on Apex 9.3 w/ talon0.5.1 (just waiting for A10.1 right now.. but that's not the point here..)...my camera acts really weired. it takes long time to open up and the screen is too dark to see outside.. I checked outside visibility but it's not bright enough to see under the Sun... and after I close it and open again, outdoor visibility check box is unchecked (well, not that it maters)... Anyone has this problem or has solution??? :(:(:(

Edit . I unchecked the auto brightness and set it to max. And then set it back to auto brightness. And my camera brightness became normal...weird but solved...

[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
9.3 is default TW4. 10.0 is default TW3, although you can d/l a flashable TW4 as an addon if you are desperate for it.

If you're looking for stability, again, there's no need to wait for 10.1. People on this thread keep asking questions about stability/crashes/whatnot, then someone asks about their launcher, and they respond "TW4, of course! Isn't it great!" Then they replace their launcher and magically their problems go away.

Stay away from TW4 and you'll be fine. Apex 10 is rock solid.

if you're restoring a backup of an ext4 system, you need to currently have an ext4 system in place to restore it to. And vice-versa for an RFS backup. Also you might need to clear caches after the restore before rebooting.

When I go to the battery usage info, it shows me how long I've been off the charger, but the battery time it estimates as being left is way off. It's virtually the same as the time off charger.

Example: I've now been off for about 18 hours and have 12% left. It estimates the amount of battery time left as about 18 hours, too.

Anyone else seeing this? Clearing battery stats and restarting several times hasn't changed that.

Though this looks great, it's not entirely accurate. I too thought I was having awesome battery (It's very good but not more then a day) however, the peeks and valleys actually show charge times. Your battery stats will show an accumulated time and not reset whenever you plug in. It only resets when charged back to 100%. It can also be cleared in cwm under advanced.

Yeah, Watsa clearly stated that TW4 is for people who aren't heavy users of their phone. I'm not exactly sure what defines a 'heavy user'. My device locked up on me when I was simply trying to send an email or a text. I used to HATE TW with a passion back in the Eclair days but I actually like the TW4 interface but it simply just isn't stable enough on our single core phones!
