[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
not yet. was digging into JVR.

After a day I can say that there is no point in upgrading to JVR. Not many things that I know of have changed since JVQ. Its better to stay put on whats stable. The only important thing not working on 8.3 that I know of is browser. It wont even work with deodexed JVR rom.

I know that I have a thread for a JVR ROM. I could have done same with JVQ but I used JVR since it was latest. That ROM has a working browser but misses out on some of the famous mods these days.

What's missing in it watsa? I've been running all day with great success. Maybe you shouldn't tell me. Thanks again.

Good to know. I'll wait on the 8.3 flash until you give the go-ahead for those couple issues. Probably play around with kernels until then.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
the issues are not huge. u can say mms is like hardcoded with miui lockscreen and u cannot set a custom app. Other is AOSP launcher is not what it was supposed to be. Fix will be an update that can be flashed on top of 8.3
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:

hello to everyone!

I am very happy to see my captivate running again! : D: D: D

thanks for all!!!

I am ready to install apex 8.3!

I'm using the rom KF1, I'll need to go back to stock rom to flash apex 8.3?

Or just need to install the I9000 bootloaders , darckcore kernel and install apex zip?

JVP/Q/R

That's funny watsa. What you say about JVR is why I never switched from Apex 7 to 8. JVP works just as well as JVQ :)
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
jvq had one major difference from jvp which was accelerated gallery performance....DEF noticable.

8.3 is the place to be. I prolly wont flash again unless a 2.3.5 drops

Correct. Infact I realize it now. I made a switch just for gallery and stronger wifi reception.

Just a kind recommendation to those running tw4.5.....if your having ANY random lock ups or reboots...ditch it.i used to swear by it till i found it was culprit. Go launcher ex with bulldozer transition screen effects provides that tw 4.5 smoothness with NO issues

Is anybody else having problems with the Samsung Music Player? I've run into one where it would play a song fine and when it tries to go into the next song, it'll pause. When I try pushing the play button, it'll say that it's playing but the song can't be heard and it'll automatically pause again a few seconds later. Can anyone suggest a good music player app with equalizer settings?

Hey guys,

I flashed this rom last night, I'm loving it so far. I have one problem, that for some reason I've never ran into until this rom.

Google maps is keeping my phone awake. For hours. I am signed into latitude, but it's never cause my phone to stay awake. It's not even updating my location.

Can anyone provide some insight as to why this is happening??
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Did you restore any system apps or data using TiBu?

You can try to:

- clear Maps data from Settings --> Applications

- wipe cache and dalvik cache from recovery

If it doesn't solve your problem, re-flash the whole ROM. If it happens again, re-download the rom and re-flash.

And if it happens again, re-flash and wait before restoring any apps (even if you don't restore system apps or data).
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
Thanks!

I'm going to try clearing the caches, no I don't use tibu at all.
[Captivate Android Development] mttfrog13:
I've been using matted blues theme, I can't get enough of it. It's a good change from the neon green android color all the time. I lost the data connection in the notification menu and had to install edt tweaks to be able to tweak the time and remove signal bars from the notification menu. Also, here's a cool wallpaper I grabbed from hyperdude111 on deviantart that goes really well with the blue theme. I just cropped it a bit and resized it to 800 x 960.
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
What widget are using for the time/weather? I like it a lot. Also using the mattedblues theme.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
It is normal that you lose data toggle and that you need EDT Tweaks app. Next update is coming very soon and based on 8.3

The theme is finished but I broke something in SystemUI.apk so notification toggles are not working anymore... I'll release as soon as it is fixed.
[Captivate Android Development] zerkai:
What'd you do to go back to 4 signal bars and colored/numbered battery bar?
[Captivate Android Development] mttfrog13:
beautiful widgets

thanks, take ur time

Still no lag after flashing 8.3. Excellent. However:

1) I'm getting frequent FCs from the buddies now widget process though :/ I don't even use that. These FCs are pretty random. Anyone else having this issue?

2) Also, is it safe to flash the new JVR DarkCore 3.0 C on this ROM?

just a question..coz i m confused..i also had the same query few days back when i was goin to leaked stock kf1....
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Thats right
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
FC? when?

I havent flashed jvr kernel with 8.3 but I am 99% sure that it will be safe
[Captivate Android Development] richsale:
I give up - Where?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
settings --> Device Customization --> Statusbar Customize --> Quick panel text(last option)

You need a reboot to get the change applied

Thanks watsa
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
I'd say its safe, I just flashed DC 3.0 JVR C without any problems using SGS kernel flasher. Keep in mind I am on a JVR rom, I don't think it'll be an issue on JVQ anyway:)

Running Services

I'm using only ONE digital clock widget but when I look under running services THREE digital clocks are running and I can only stop one of the three(arc clock) so there are always at least 2-3 clocks running? Is this needed?

Also what other running services that running at start up as default are truly needed? I usually stop maps, market, software update. I know some are needed like kb(obviously) and google services(messaging).

[Captivate Android Development] SMaximus7:
I think I misspoke. I was using K9 before. Now when I tried with the default email app (the one on froyo didn't play well) it was giving me "username or password incorrect". I fixed it though. I downloaded K9 and then just copied all the settings for the incoming server and outgoing server from K9 into the default email app and it's working. You can find instructions online but you need to set the incoming mail security to TLS and the outgoing mail security to None for it to work.

[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
Ok. After i trashed tw4.5, they released an update. Lockups are gone as ive done everything that would lock it up in the past (memory clear from stock task manager,prolonged web surf etc..) no lag or freeze issues. Although it still freezes after pressing save and restart. Not a big deal. ONE issue remains. If you have a oc'able kernel, regardless if youve disabled higher clocks, it WILL scale up when switching screens to the highest kernel clock. This will be ok if running a non oc kernel but until existz releases non oc 4.4.6 ill be back on go launcher

Hey guys, my first post in this forum and i m getting a rather weird problem..after i flashed Twingy 4.3 a couple of days back, i cant place fring out/ fring calls. I mean, i can, and I can hear the other person(my GF) clearly, but she cant hear me. Tried friendcaller n skype and they work, even normal phone calls work perfectly. Any ideas why?

I even thought flashing a different ROM will solve this, so i went back to stock, cleared both caches, and flashed Continuum 3.5 . The ROM is great, but it also had the fring problem. Any help?????

p.s.- Big fan of Twingy, flashed 3.3, 4, 4.1 and 4.3, love the work!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
strange... so u get this problem on stock JF6 too?
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:

So I'll donate in the next few minutes. Wishing you best and hoping you'll come back soon.

[Captivate Android Development] psycho2097:
No it wireless fine before, I even flashed 5-6 roms on it.then I did twingy 4.3, then this started. Then I flashed continuum and it is still continuing.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Did you master cleared since you are having this problem?
[Captivate Android Development] yahooserious:
Well Yes I did choose the titanium backup option that said "restore all aps with data" because I expected that the "restore missing aps + all system data" was the worse of the two choices.

Quickly tho. Love the Rom man! Great job on getting this all together!

ok so as i stated earlier pretty much all camera aps were FC. I CWM and reinstalled rom and after customizing for a few hours..BAM! now the contacts were force closing..jeepers huh! the camera aps were ok.. THEN I add it up!

The first run I used SGS tools to mod the camera APK.. the second time I used SGS to mod the contacts..

See where im going? So I used SGS script to restore contacts just a minute ago..BLAMMO!

contacts are working fine again! no more FC.

I wanted to bring this to your attention in case youre are troubleshooting with someone else.

Working great now. Will update it it turns bad again.

Cheers!

yep, flashed back to stock with ODIN then reinstalled CWM and flashed the new Apex 5.0 zip. swype is definitely updated, green and cool looking.
