Hey dude,

I guess 10.1 will be an update, so no wipe --> you don't have to install anything again. If you use adw launcher for example you can axtually make a backup under the launchers options. If you restore after flashing a new Rom, you will see all the icons and folders where they were. If you restore all the apps you need to reboot one time to connect the apps with the icons again(let the launcher now you installed the apps again.) I hope you got what I was trying to explain;-)
[Captivate Android Development] Mongostylor:
I'm kinda tired of waiting for Apex 10.1 so I'll flash Apex 10 now. What is the best Kernel for you guys? Sticking with DC 4.0 or moving to Talon 0.5.1? What about lagfix?Watsa has RFS in his sig? Improved performance without lagfix on this rom?

While I'm allready asking stuff, if I don't want some of the preinstalled apps of this rom, can I just delete them out of the zip and flash it afterwards? I never tried that before.
[Captivate Android Development] melvinaury:
Also the same is true for go launcher and launcher pro. For tw3 you can use SGS Tools it has an option to backup and restore.

Flashin detail

1) its somethin to do with dhcp reservation of ur wifi router...if u can clear it..it will solve the issue..or else..u can use an app from market call wifi static....that will do the job for u...modem has nothin to do with wifi..

2)hearin part is surely related to modem,,u can try changin modem..but i guess u shd check ur signal bar...if its gettin low in the area..where u previously gettin better signal..then u can change the modem...

---------- Post added at 04:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 PM ----------

i was using pinnacle for sometime..coz i wanted to get the stock feel..but then just to try JVS..i switched to apex 10 after the relaease...

just downloaded the apex 10 ..placed it on internal sd...and installed from there...

everything looked nice..and same as apex 9.x....obviously with few extra mods and changes...

then i noticed wifi problem..and saw the thread that everyone wasnt havin the issue.but i was havin..and it was damn annoyin...coz this phone is no good without internet..and my phone data internet is very costly...

i was on vacation and stayin at my friends place when i flashed apex 10...so i tried to get into his router and clear the dhcp reservation...for some reason i wasnt able to...as it was connected thru wpa2 security...and then i thought of switchin back to pinnacle or apex 9....then only i saw a thread mention abt wifi static app...and i installed and my wifi problems were gone..i was connected to wifi and it didnt go every few sec....

then i tested the gps(using map)...even under the sun..it wasnt workin...then flashed the nexus gps which is in OP..and then i got it workin....it showed me my location..though still when i m inside room..it doesnt get my location..i hav to take my phone out of the window to get the lock....but its allright...i can manage with that..i dont use GPS much in my phone...

then i came back to my city and in my home also i hav wifi router with wpa security...but purposely i uninstalled the wifi app and tried to connect to my wifi router..it did and stayed...so i m not even needin wifi static anymore to stay connected to wifi...though i hav kept the backup of that app..if somewhere i face the same wfi problem in new location..then i can use it....

then pinnacle 1.3 was released..but i m not flashin that...i m gonna use apex 10 for few days and test.....so if i see some problem or i hav some solution for any problem..i will post here.

so used my other mods..which i usually use...

1)added sound for bootanimation power on / off both

2)made the top black bar transparent

3)deleted all the stock ringtones and notification tones..and added my favs and loud ones...

and now i m happy ....

Is it mentioned in change log yet?
[Captivate Android Development] t3chn0s1s:
Has anyone else noticed in the Accuweather widget that the city list text is all in black on a black background and when you add or delete any cities the button text is invisible or just not there? Maybe something to fix for 10.1 or a future update.

[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
I used DC4 when I first installed to good results. I then flashed the latest Talon and found it a bit laggy. Installing Piccachu's init.d scripts fixed that, and I believe performance is now better than it was with DC4.

If you're going the Talon + scripts way, make sure you get rid of the other scripts in the init folder as some of them conflict.
[Captivate Android Development] Frontier3:
Never used Apex before installing 10 yesterday. Couldn't get GPS to work at all. Got it momentarily working with a modem from pinnacle but it made everything else unstable. Was having stability issues with launcherpro and adw it appeared as well. Re-flashed 10 today but still no working GPS. Tried to re-apply pb3 and also tried the h3llstorm settings with no luck.

Just flashed 9.2 and the 9.3 update and gps working right out of the box.

Looking forward to trying out 10.1 to see if it fixes the GPS issue. Loved some of the new settings/features from 10.
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
For Apex 10 just flash the Nexus S gps files from OP.

Or you can wait for 10.1 which Watsa said will be with the Nexus S gps files.
[Captivate Android Development] killer_raj:
u r right....as u can see the peek and valley that Thegodfather156 's screenshot was showin that he did put it back to charge in between...

here is mine...and detail...

i hav 45% left...and almost 23 hours usage ..with 2 hour 4 mins talk time..and 21 mins wifi call...and display time...

No Market after updating to 10.0

I wiped my phone, flashed to 10.0, and I seem to be missing the market app itself - so I can't go an get TiBU to restore my apps :( Anyone else with this problem? Did I do something wrong...I have only used 9.3, so haven't done an update yet, but I think I did it correctly...

Thanks,

Quintin
[Captivate Android Development] ak789:
Kool, i never explored that option, i have done the backup. Do you know which folder it keeps the home screen backup, like we have Titanium backup folder for all the back ups.

---------- Post added at 07:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 PM ----------

Yes i got you point. But looks like SGS tools is much easier option, so will be going with it and see if that really works for the next complete wipe if required.
[Captivate Android Development] melvinaury:
Just look inside the SGS tools folder. There will be a new folder with the backup. I use that option a lot of time. The only that you have to restore manually are the widgets. And that happen with LP and go launcher.
[Captivate Android Development] quinting:
Got it...I was able to download TiBU apk from the web, installed on my phone, then restored the market from my backup...along with my other apps...I think everything is working now...

GPS

Hi, i'm using apex 10.0 for a week and i've notted my gps spending more time to find / fix on sattelites?

So, did you think i need to aply that stock JVS gps zip??

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
both of then look really sick diz... green one is for sure going to be included in the next release of ApeX with your permission? :D

I am not on black theme now so cant compare but have u made any changes to the black swype?
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
Looking real good buddy, keep it up!
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Thanks! Glad you like.

Yes, please add to next Apex update. :)

The only thing I changed in the Black version was the font to Sony Sketch.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Thanks! I think I am now permanently cross-eyed from staring at the image files...
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
lol, i think you should create a CWM update package and release them outside of ApeX too

Now since you are already cross-eyed, its easy for you to come out with more colors soon :D
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Yeah, I thought about just taking an existing CWM zip and dropping them in, but it was just too easy for me to drop in the files with Root Explorer and not having to reboot all the time. :-)

Let me know what other colors/fonts would interest anyone and I can look into it --- when I get my vision back, of course. LOL.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
The black version with Armani fonts would be awesome!! And if you could theme the french/azerty keyboard too I'd probably buy you a beer :D
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Hey Froli, I haven't forgotten about you. I've got the Azerty keyboard all set up in Photoshop, just haven't gotten around to exporting the png files yet. :D

What I can do is provide you the AZERTY keyboard in black, but in Sony Sketch font in a couple of hours after work (~3 hours from now), and then later, try to lay it out in Armani font in the next couple of days. (this is perfect timing for your suggestion as I was going back and forth whether to do it in either Marker Felt or Armani Font --- have to dig up Armani font later).

How do you want this to happen? ;)

No beers necessary. This is just fun to do when not getting blurry vision. :D
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
please please please a blue coz i hate blue
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Thanks for taking my suggestion in consideration! I can send you the armani font if you want. I have it on my phone.
[Captivate Android Development] BaDaB!ng505:
so just out of curiosity i was looking at your OP and wow..i see badabing..lol

anyways..my g/f and i went to look at phones yesterday and yeah..i think she wants to upgrade to tablets so i think i might be done with captivate ..still deciding
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
A tablet instead of the phone altogether?
[Captivate Android Development] BaDaB!ng505:
i think theres a way to port a dialer and use your old sim to make call...im still looking into it right now but my friend said its ok and i see alot of people doing it..we both dont talk much on our phone anyways.. i use my phone more for web browsing and flashing than talking on it
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
I totally get this tbh. I use it more for music/texting and such that actually talking on it... and when I do talk on it it's through my BT headset.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
bada

why dude, u just came out with your awesome greenie, dont get rid of capppy now
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
What shade of blue? My only concern would be that the superscript characters in blue would be hard to read, so have to choose the blue shade carefully. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
No need for the font pack. I downloaded from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10951609&postcount=11

But...are you sure you want the Armani font? It's not too different than the stock Swype font. I guess you just want the AZERTY Black themed, eh?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Matted blue ;)
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Yes it would be just fine! I'd take an armani version only if you plan to make it. But stock Swype font is perfect for me.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Give me some time with the Armani font as I'm trying out a new approach while trying to keep with the Precision grid look.

In the meantime, here is the black theme with qwerty & azerty along with the sony sketch font. I didn't load it on my phone, but the azerty should work with no problems.

Black Swype (sonysketchfont-whitetail-qwerty-azerty)

Reminder: Still not a CWM zip. :D
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Use Nexus s GPS fix instead
[Captivate Android Development] vileladelima:
Ok. I'll do this tuto:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1272141

Or just intal the nexus s gps fix, that i haven't found to download.

it's on the first post. I use it and it is excellent
[Captivate Android Development] vileladelima:
Thank Thank Thanks!

I sow the fist post 3 thousand times and didn't seen the nexus s gps fix!

i realy need to change my glasses!

sory about my english!
[Captivate Android Development] Sgt_Bilbo:
I tried searching this post for the answers, but no luck, but I know from experience that this group is awesome at finding solutions, so here we go:

The stock email app that comes with Apex 10. I can read my Exchange email without any issue, but I'm having major problems when composing an email. I can type without issue, but if I try to make corrections or fix an auto-corrected word, rather than replace the text, the app keeps repeating the misspelled word every time I hit a key, be it the space bar or the backspace key. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and if so...how the @$#$ did you fix it? I've had the problem w/ Swype, stock, and Swiftkey X.
[Captivate Android Development] Mongostylor:
Just flashed apex 10 over 9.3. It is really fast compared to a9.3 which worked well for me as well. I installed the nexus s gps fix from the op and gor 11 locks indoor after 10secs. I love it;-) great work again watsa!
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
It's just farther in the list. In 10.0 the new market is included, which is called Market instead of Android Market...
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
FYI for anyone trying to install pdiddy 1.9, big fail for me - I have posted my issue in his forum looking for an answer I will update as soon as I get one, tw launcher freezes on me and I had to actually re-install boot loaders(i9000) because nandroid failed to restore
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Can someone link me a version of TW3 with TW4 icons that I can use on Apex 9.3. I'm not on Apex 10 because of the wifi issues.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Grab TW3 from Apex 10 and push it to your phone.

edit: did you at least try apex 10? I didn't have this wifi bug yet.
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Yes i actually have tried 10. Moved back to 9.3 because I actually use wifi in a variety of places.
[Captivate Android Development] t3chn0s1s:
Here you go.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Can someone post the SGSII like clock widget? I tried pulling it from Apex and installing it to another ROM. Either I pulled the wrong apk file, or I just can't seem to get it working.

The clock I'm talking about is where the date and month or something is to the right of the digital clock.
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
When i place it into system and press the home button. It doesn't give me the option to use it. Even pulling the one from Apex 10.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Try wiping TW launcher data
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
what TW launcher data?
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Go to Settings - apps - manage apps then find samsung launcher (or your current default launcher) and select delete default settings (or something like that)
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
ok. Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
"Good" news: I have the same problem.

Bad news: The only fix I have is to either not send email from my phone, or not make any spelling errors. ;)

It's not much of a problem for me because I don't generally email on that account from my phone, but a fix would be nice.
[Captivate Android Development] joedoe:
Don't have any idea what are you talking about.
[Captivate Android Development] gcamp0730:
Same problem here. I have figured out I can move the cursor around to various words and finally back to the word I need to correct, but sometimes I have to just start over..... :-(
[Captivate Android Development] RashaMatt:
Double-tap a word to select it, then you can replace it by typing/Swyping. You can also try using Swype's cursor controls (swipe from the Swype key to the SYM key). Might also help to disable auto-correct.

Did you try wifi static app from the market, because I also use wifi in a variety of places,, and I had wifi issues when I flashed for the first time, then I installed that app and my problem was gone, worth a try
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
I'm already too comfortable on 9.3. Nothing really compels me to move to 10.
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
Double tapping does not work. The word will not be selected at all, and attempting to overtype the incorrect word just recreates the problem.

Using the cursor controls, however, did give me a usable workaround to the problem. I was able to place the cursor at the back of the word, highlight "Select text", and use the cursor control arrows to manually highlight the word. I could then type over it and replace it.

Thanks!

Hey Watsa not sure if you saw my post a few pages back about issues with paul diddy's new 1.9 theme http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17984298&postcount=11394- before the launcher froze I received a error about launcher closing and I was no longer able to go to home screen and it kept FC until it no longer booted up

now his theme has worked flawlessly throughout all Apex releases and this time was a huge problem it froze so bad I had to re-install the boot loaders just to get the phone to work (nandroid back-up failed) I posted on his page and only got the response that he is using same launcher and it must be a ROM issue, any ideas ?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Apex 10 has TW3 and if I am not wrong theme has TW4.5, so launchers are different... a factory reset did not fix the problem?
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
nope what happens is it will not let me select a launcher and i had added the hacked tw 4.5 and it worked fine
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
I will have to see what's inside theme' framework folder. Maybe something is messed up between it and apex.
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
do you need the framework folder? or will you just download it?

Edit: I would try getting TW out of theme and then flash to see if that's the problem.

no problem get to it at your convenience thanks alot, if I were to use images from paul diddy on tw3 launcher what would I have to replace?

Yea I even put watsa's twframework into Pauls zip, still had same result

I was looking for full. I have 9.3 update

@tomween have same one 9.3 update, sorry

Its close to impossible that twfw would cause the error. I think you can ask Paul to create a separate zip for you with all the fw files that he is using. I will later on try to see whats wrong

Hi All,

I'm on apex 10 and notice that whenever I reboot, it'd go into a semi bootloop. I said semi because it'd only do it 2 or 3 times and then it'd complete the reboot. It's 100% reproducable especially if I'm plugged into the charger.

I have master reset via cwm twice already so I'm not sure whatelse I could do? I came from Serendipity 7 to apex 9.2.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I had mattedblue when I was on 9.3, but stock ever since I went to 10. I'm on default DC 4 kernel as well.

I used tibu to restore user apps+data only. Only system data I restore are my browser bookmarks.

Hey guys, haven't dropped here in a while. I am using 9.0 still, can i flash 10.0straight or do i have to flash other versions first... also if i flash 10, will my data get wiped out?

Thanks for the reply
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
10.0 is a wipe as it is based on new base. Yes it can be flashed over 9.0
[Captivate Android Development] sportyankz:
And also wil i lose my files and data etc..? Or should i backup before i flash 10
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
files? no u wont lose them. Yes u will lose apps/data etc. If u backup and restore on 10.0 make sure that u r not restoring system apps/data

And i think i still use darcore..do u recommend i change it to talon or what i have is fine
