Just applied the 9.1 to 9.2 and the apex build in the about phone still says 9.1.

is this right?
[Captivate Android Development] cnu4u:
Can you provide the times each thing is on?
[Captivate Android Development] Crash:
nop maybe you did something wrong what method you use ?
[Captivate Android Development] TwinkyOfHope:
I apologize for asking again, but anyone know if there's a way to get a 5 icon dock with touchwiz icons on the AOSP launcher? It's so silky smooth and fast
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
cwm install from sd card

will try again if works great if not will do a full wipe

Edit: seems that the install was like 2 seconds till complete :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] Crash:
Follow this steps

First download this file

CLICK HERE

Save the file in your external

Reboot in Clock work mode

choose install form zip them choose the file you download

wait until the file is finish

and reboot :D

REMENBER THAT THERS 2 LINKS 1 IS FOR THE UPDATE AND THE OTHER ONE IS THE FULL ROM SO YOU HAVE TO CHOSE THE UPDATE ONE

Sorry for my english hehe
[Captivate Android Development] kimocal:
I flashed the no-wipe 5.2 update from 5.1 and the kernel did not update with it. It's still @ k13C.

Thumbs up on being able to remove the clock. Very nice!!

Oh and I updated my sig :D
​
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Oops i am sorry, i missed the script to update kernel... will fix this asap... meanwhile you can flash the CWM zip from official speedmod kernel official thread
[Captivate Android Development] kimocal:
No worries. Just bug reporting for you. :D I was going to flash the kernel next.
[Captivate Android Development] kritikallyrics:
Works like a charm! Thanks! :)
[Captivate Android Development] blongs:
Watsaa, Thanks for updating the circle battery mod, that seems to have cured my problems.

Would there be any way to get the batt. circle mod and Apex colored settings mod. together. whenever I flash one it takes away the other.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
I will add that MOD in sometime
[Captivate Android Development] kimocal:
You need to create a MOD kitchen. Make it easier for you. No idea on how to do that though.

Might also want to include the ROM version in the Mods file name so that people know if they are safe to apply.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
I agree twice- a MOD kitchen would make it easier for Watsaa (nice for us also) and I have no idea how to do it either. I would like to offer help but I have no knowledge of these things...yet ;)
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
ROM version in the mods file name is a good idea! Not as good as a kitchen, but it will, at least, avoid people to get lost.
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
This 10 char
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
agreed kitchen is good idea :eek:
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
You hit up chancem, I think he offers to assist with some kind of kitchen setup
[Captivate Android Development] grenade01:
What about an all you can eat mod buffet? IMO there's better value
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
lol 10char
[Captivate Android Development] blongs:
Thanks

Watsaa, Thank you so much for putting together mod 1&4. Now this Rom is everything I would want in a custom rom. This is my keeper!!!

Thank you again
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
hey i bet you didnt know it but your settings.apk has the 32sec wifi scan time too. maybe add it to your added features.
[Captivate Android Development] ahurley:
when my phone is locked and i get a new text, the physical buttons(menu, home, back, search)light up and stay lit until i read my text. is this a feature or a bug? if it is a feature, how do i disable it? i have a feeling it is making my battery life a touch worse. Thanks!

btw, i am using 5.1 with blackout theme, if that helps any
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Disable bln in Recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
+1, ditto to all.
[Captivate Android Development] jcr81:
Okay, I replaced the setting.apk from the black theme with the stock and I now have the linked volume; however the clock toggle doesn't work. I suspect it's because I need either the updated framework or a jar file. Does anyone know which file I need to replace and whether or not it will break my theming. I assume if it's the framework.apk it will but perhaps it's a jar file...??

[Captivate Android Development] cnu4u:
Considering display is ON for about 3 hours, there should be activity being done for that long... Another thing matters is brightness of your display.. Will suggest you to hold on couple of charge cycles...
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
thanks for trying , did actually do it all as you said before, but redownloaded and tried again, same problem :confused:

ok downloading the full pkg and will see what happens. bummer I hate resetting up the phone when there is a no wipe update. :(
[Captivate Android Development] d_gritza:
How can I remove everyone's birthdays from my calendar? It's syncing with Fbook... But i only want it to sync pictures...
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
Whats your brightness setting? Since wifi is off, is this on 3g? Also auto sync on/off? Anything else on, bluetooth, etc?
[Captivate Android Development] oriveradel:
hey watsa I got to test GPS and its not locking, have you included any GPS fixes? I works very good on my other Cappy with Apex 9.1
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Sure it is, just forgot about it since I was working on MattedOrange. It will be up tonight.
[Captivate Android Development] justin860:
display is at minimum and auto sync is off so is bluetooth I usually use the phone alot more then this and get tripple the battery life
[Captivate Android Development] Jack45:
Great. Just don't get sidetracked by MattedPurple. :)

But...I would understand if you got sidetracked by MattedBlack!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
If you are asking that I have included GPS fix in 9.2 then no it is same as 9.1 and even 8.x or 7.x. But yes there are GPS files that I have included from nexus s
[Captivate Android Development] cnu4u:
Is there anything different you did just before you observed this? One suggestion is to do full charge, go to cwm, wipe cache partition, dalvik cache, battery stats and then give 2-3 charge cycles.... Hope this will help you.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
So u r telling that u get 9 hours of screen on time from other ROMs? :eek:
[Captivate Android Development] justin860:
on delvs rom I had 11 hours of standby thats why i figured something was wrong...
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
what was the display time? I can get 40 hours of battery without using display. I know that 3 hours of display is still less but doesnt sound as bad as "5 hours and my battery gone". So when did you flash? Also I am seeing that your cell standby is 6+ hours. do u live in a low signal area? cell standby ate your battery
[Captivate Android Development] justin860:
I flashed this morning. Display time I usually get 5-6 hours use and signal never less then 3 bars in my area
[Captivate Android Development] Crash:
Watsa,

thanks dude now im start playing with the UOT Kitchen and customize the signal and Battery icons ;)
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
You can't judge battery before at least 3 complete charging cycle. I mean from nearly 0% to 100%
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
ok bro you need to give any ROM/kernel/modem combo some time. Sometimes you start seeing awesome battery right after you flash and sometimes it needs 3-4 charge cycles.

To my knowledge there is no cappy in this world that gives 6 hours of display time with standard 1500 mAH battery. Correct me if I am wrong
[Captivate Android Development] Sarius24:
I just realized my scroll buttons, the sync one's text shows "False" instead of sync. How can I fix :P?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
decompile systemUI.apk. verify that all xml's and smali's related to auto sync are correct and VOILA :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Easy peasy
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
Sounds fishy. What modem are you using? I see your in CT. I'm in MA and get best results with default KC1, JK4, and JV6.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
I uploaded a file without build.prop once, but that was fixed very quickly after 9.2 release. So if u downloaded in that period its possible that about phone says 9.1
[Captivate Android Development] Sarius24:
Bah nvm ill deal with it lol
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
lol just playing. I will fix it :)
[Captivate Android Development] insane08:
im on Apex 9.2 right now and been running it for a few days already..the home screen seems to give me a lot of trouble when ever i hit the application drawer and come have to the home screen it takes a while to load the screen icons ..overall my phone lags a lot in different situations not sure what the problem could be..

any solutions????

its getting pretty annoying even though i have amazing battery its still a pain a deal with. love everything else about the ROM thou thanks
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
It happens only with TW4. I have seen that happening even on SGS 2. So if you are really annoyed with it try other 2 launchers.
[Captivate Android Development] morpheus_1987:
Which icons are we talking about? Is this still true with Matted Blues? I haven't noticed it. I'm still suspecting my poor battery life has something to do with Google since I can only narrow it down to GTALK_ASYNC_CONN, but can't narrow it down any further :(
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
can u post your battery usage? like display time etc?

Edit: we are talking about wifi, signal icons in stock apex theme
[Captivate Android Development] BitteredBro:
I got the same issue: updated form 9.1 to 9.2 and version 9.1 still showing.

Everything its working as it should, just not showing the right version number? Im missing something?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
That update package was online for only about an hour after release. if you download and flash file now, it should say 9.2. but if u have 9 toggles that means u r on 9.2
[Captivate Android Development] BitteredBro:
Ok. I'll keep it then. I have a collectors edition Apex :)
[Captivate Android Development] Exostenza:
Hey guys quick question: If I flash 9.2 no wipe on a half charged battery does it matter? Does no wipe mess with the battery stats?
[Captivate Android Development] bigblue95z:
Watsa, how come no landscape support for nexus style launcher from 9.1+? Loved it on 9.0.
[Captivate Android Development] morpheus_1987:
Display 20%

Google Services 17%

Android System 15%

Mixzing 10%

Wifi 8% (I'm lazy and leave it on all that time but I've always done that)

Cell Standby 7%

Media server 7%

Android OS 4%

Opera Mobile 4%

ADWLauncher EX 3%

Phone Idle 2%

Roughly 13.5 hours and I'm down to 5%. ~1.5 hours of internet and 1.5 hours of music only.

I used to do 1.5 hours of surfing and 8+ hours of music and I'd still have 25-30% by bed time which is just over 16 hours of use since unplug.
[Captivate Android Development] BitteredBro:
I dont know if this is a ROM issue or what (I changed Apex, Kernel and Modem at the same time), but every now and then my ringtones and notifications sounds stops working. I got to set them again on the corresponding menu. Same for tiles in Launcher 7.

It some of a nuissance do that 6 o 7 times a day...

Any ideas how to solve this?
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Grab OS Monitor from the market. Get CPU Spy also. OS Monitor will tell you whats running the most, etc. CPU Spy will tell you how long your CPU has been running at #MHz and deep sleep. Two good apps to help narrow down the drain issue.

Not sure why your Google Services is so high either. Streaming from Google Music? That seems pretty odd to me right off the bat.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
We all do my friend.. we all do...
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
@froli

orange soon?

Can I make a request for yellow?
[Captivate Android Development] morpheus_1987:
I've had CPU Spy and it shows the phone sits at 100mhz a long time which agrees with BetterBatteryStats since it says the GTALK_ASYNC_CONN is causing a partial wake lock so the phone doesn't go into deep sleep much.

I'll give OS Monitor a shot and see if it provides any information that's different from BetterBatteryStats.

I don't use Google Music.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
I use gtalk and voice quite a bit and haven't had the issue of not getting to deep sleep. I did have some issues getting voice to install properly the first few times I restored. Ended up having to uninstall and dl/install from market and set it up again. After that, it acted normal. You're bound to figure things out though, you're doing more than others by trying to locate the issue yourself. <hat tip>
[Captivate Android Development] mirrored:
so I just flashed apex 9.2, very easy and waiting for the initial boot still. the poll seems to say that everyone loves talon and I'm in the thread for that kernel. my question is what version should I download and its just flashed in recovery, correct? do I need to do any other extra steps?

thanks
[Captivate Android Development] metalfangs:
As far as I know any of the latest talon kernels are supported. I'm personally using TalonDEV 0.4.3 340MB 1200MHZ and it's running great. Also yes the talon kernels are flashable from recovery :)
[Captivate Android Development] shadvich:
Flash one of the beta ones, they usually come in two flavors - regular 1000mhz, and 1200mhz oc, both with uv. My phone seems to hate talon however, things are extremely sluggish compared to dark core. I'm running dark core with tegrak ultimate for oc/uv and it's been great, both in terms of performance and battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
I'd like to know the answer to this as well. My assumption is no but it's a guess.
[Captivate Android Development] metalfangs:
Is there a way to disable ad block for certain apps such as mount manager? As it won't allow me to run the free version unless it is ad supported.
[Captivate Android Development] tmng95014:
It should be OK. Generally we don't want to get caught running out of battery while ROM installation is going on :-)
[Captivate Android Development] Exostenza:
I have got an answer on this thread once and considering I have posted about a dozen question that is not good at all. Don't hold your breath for an answer form these yahoos...

:mad:
[Captivate Android Development] olo567:
Just a question on toggle behavior watsa. Prior to 9.1, since I had vibrate always set, the sound toggle would switch between sound+vibrate and just vibrate. Now it toggles between sound+vibrate and silent and I have to scroll over and flip the vibrate toggle back on. Seems odd. Why doesn't the vibrate toggle stick when changing the sound toggle?
[Captivate Android Development] mirrored:
flashed talon kernel and matted blues and now I'm getting fc's from Swype :(
[Captivate Android Development] NightHawk877:
How could I change the piano key sound to something different when I change the volume?
[Captivate Android Development] iluretar:
don't know if this goes here but i flashed xcal's kernel and like 20min later i got the aos battery drain which i've never had on serendipity vii and on apex running dc 3.0 and 3.1, is it kernel related or i just got lucky xD, and also i thought that bug was over with 2.3.4 but i guess its not
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
whats your wifi policy set to?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
which version of xcal?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Nope its not odd. enable vibrate (last option) to make 4th option toggle between sound and vibrate else it toggles between sound and silent
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:

(great quote from Shark Tale btw)

and again, the very next post...

You're thinking of another thread where you don't get answers. This is one of the best supported ROMs out there and the community is more than willing to help as well. Just because it doesn't get answered immediately doesn't mean it won't get answered.

Patience young padawan, patience....
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
and with that I go to bed with %11 battery. Been up and unplugged since 5am
[Captivate Android Development] iluretar:
I'm using 2.1 with bln
[Captivate Android Development] RN_ReFlux:
It's a problem work the Swype versions between apex 9.2 and the matted blues. You need to go into settings and switch to a different keyboard, then using root explorer or like program switch Swype.apk from system/app and the libswypecore file from system/lib with the matching files out of the apex zip.

[Captivate Android Development] tc0312:
Is the AT&T static text, or is it displaying the operator name?

i.e. it would change to Roger automatically when I am in Canada.

Thanks for the tips.
[Captivate Android Development] tc0312:
Hi Watsa, it is possible to set it to the operator name?

i.e. it is not a static text, when I am roaming in Canada, the text would switch to Roger automatically.

Thanks for the great work Watsa!
[Captivate Android Development] metalfangs:
You could try the Carrier Name app it should be on the market. Although I am not sure if it will work while roaming.

u using friendcaster or facebook for android app??

if its friendcaster..then u cant..it will sync pic and bday...

even i dont think that 6-7 hour of display is possible in any of the cappy on any of the rom..

SOMETHING OFF TOPIC

but in this thread i see most of the users r using cappy as computer (for browsing) or as mp3 player..(i m saying coz when ppl r putting their usage i..mostly voice calls r not even there in the usage stats)..anyone using it as a phone also?!?!?!? for making calls n receiving calls???
[Captivate Android Development] olo567:
It will only toggle from sound to vibrate or from sound+vibrate to silent. This seems backwards, no? I would think if vibrate is toggled on (last option), then it should toggle between sound+vibrate and vibrate, and when vibrate is toggled off it would switch between sound only and silent. :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
I make a ton of calls but can't give good info on modems since I am using the infuse and use its modem. I use a couple hours a day or more and it shows in the logs accurately.
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
I've given it several days now and I've even tried a different modem, but I'm still not able to get a full 24 hours with just light to moderate use.

I love this ROM for everything except the battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
Hmm i never get mine past 24 hours even on light usage unless i make my phone stay on edge, anyway maybe there is some app that updated on your phone and sipping the battery or try the old kernel you were using before that gets your phone 24 hours before.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
whats the usage? display time etc etc etc
[Captivate Android Development] morpheus_1987:
I included it in my battery use breakdown post. I leave it on all the time since I sometimes listen to TuneIn Radio via wifi so I don't want wifi to cut out after the screen goes out. I've never had battery issues related to this as I've always had it on all the time even on other roms including stock.

The last 2 days I've actually had Wifi off at work except during lunch because the router on my floor is not working and it didn't seem to make a difference.

I'm drawing a blank. Would reflashing help at all?
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
It's still the same. Most usage is display and cell standby.

Maps are not even listed. Wireless networks are off. I could probably get about 33 hours with my normal usage on 9.1 and can only get about 20 with 9.2.

Changed the modem and there was no real difference.

Thinking of changing the kernel to Talon.

Don't get me wrong - I love this ROM and have no other issues. I don't get any FC's, not any real lag, etc. Just not good battery life since 9.2.
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
I did it without any problems, but you usually want to try it on a full charge because it can throw your batt. calibration off(seems to be hit or miss) But, generally I have not found any ill effects with just an update since it is quick, you just might not want to try do it for a full ROM flash just for the sake of you wouldn't want your phone to die mid flash
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
Really? I've flashed a lot of ROM's and this is one of the most friendly/helpful threads going!!

About your question. Flashing on 50% charge doesn't really matter. When you flash a new ROM whether its wipe or non wipe you should recalibrate your battery. Wiping battery stats in CWM is easy enough. I've even flashed Roms at 20%. You certainly dont want to do it with less than 10% or so, so the battery doesn't die before installation is complete.
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
I think he's asking about your wifi sleep policy. If you don't want it to cut out after screen goes off I'm assuming you sleep policy is set to "never"?
[Captivate Android Development] RTBee:
Hey thanks, I was just getting reading to ask about that. I've had quick battery drops and such but just finished my 3rd complete charging cycle and all seems fine. Your timing was perfect! :)
[Captivate Android Development] RTBee:
Maybe just a port for Mellow Yellow :)
[Captivate Android Development] Jack45:
I stopped agonizing over battery life months ago. I knew I did all that was possible - within reason - to maximize its life during the day, and have simply fallen into the routine of turning off the phone and charging it when I go to sleep. I use an alarm clock rather than the phone, so that's not an issue. I don't shoot for 18 hours, 24 hours, etc. of life. As long as the juice lasts while I'm awake I'm happy...and it has.
[Captivate Android Development] morpheus_1987:
Sorry, that is what I meant. My wifi sleep policy is never.

Q & A

I don't want to get off topic, but someone made mention of not getting answers in a timely fashion and I'd just like to say this about that: The folks that visit this thread with questions and/or answers are from all over the world. You might ask a question and the one that's got just the right answer for you is in the sack at 3 in the morning. So be patient! It's amazing how much help you can get especially on this thread. Kudos to all that help and take the time to answer some of our silly questions. (and some are sillier than others)

Also remember, some are asking questions of the dev's and guess what, sometimes they're off developing, thank goodness, or we wouldn't have any of this stuff to ask questions about. So Be Patient! (my 2 cents) :)
[Captivate Android Development] Jack45:
Set it to "When screen turns off."
[Captivate Android Development] TheShamsMan:
I'm having issues with the music functionality with 9.2.

The Samsung and AOSP music players conflict with each other all the time. When using the Samsung player, unplugging my earphone will start the AOSP player on speaker. When I access the task bar to pause, it'll only play using the Samsung player, so I'll have two players, playing two songs at the same time.

I'm also getting a lot of skipping. It has gotten progressively worse over the past week or so. On speaker, it is even worse. It'll sound like an old CD player on a bumpy road.

I've used both DC and Talon. Not sure if that's supposed to make a difference, but it doesn't.

Thanks!
