Couple camera questions:

Why is there a flash option when there is no flash?

And when I record video, sometimes the video 'lags' or 'skips' a little.. any idea what can cause this? (sometimes when I game, its gets little laggy too, like fps drop for a moment or two, could be related to some lag my phone is experiencing?)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axis01:
The flash button is likely a button that didn't get taken out. Don't know about the skips. Could be a number of things.

First off I absolutely love Andromeda3! But it seems when I get a picture message it doesnt show. Just shows it as downloading, I've done a search and have not come across anything related. I feel it is something small and right in front of my eyes. ursa minor 2.6.32.9 kernel. Any ideas?

Edit:I figured it, Seems having wifi on confuses it.

Does swype on this ROM support Russian language?

Hello,

Anybody in SUBJ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
I keep wondering, what is a SUBJ? What does that have to do with Andromeda?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] artisticcheese:
SUBJ is subject of question. Question was wether Anromeda Swype supports Russian as input language.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
You should have actually asked the question :rolleyes:

No. Andromeda does not support Russian language.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwanhala:
Maybe you could try to uninstall the swype version that came with Andromeda3 and sign up for the free Swype Beta and try. There should be some threads here on XDA how to exactly accomplish that.

Here's a link to the swype beta supported languages and screen sizes. http://beta.swype.com/android/supported/ and here's a link that shows what the Captivate has http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...TM)+-+Black&q_sku=sku4760319#fbid=i6kF8FYeYRz

Noob question:

So how do I install this? :o
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billlapinga:
Go to the market and type apk installer in the search box. Or if you have winrar, you can open up Andromeda zip and add this music player into the zip after you delete the old (original) player. When you unzip the file, open system folder then open app folder. You can drag and drop or right click and add file. Then close and add back to root of your cell and flash with CWM. You can do this with many apps that you would like installed with the rom. Also you can change the battery icons and other stuff as well. With winrar you can change the apk files and it will ask if you want to update file (or re-sign the apk) so you can flash with no problem.

Good Luck

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billlapinga:
Hey Adam, I have a question about call recording. I want to port call recording from another rom over to Andromeda 3, but I'm a lost as to what is needed or what files I need to mod. I have a 2.2 froyo donor rom JS8 build. I have dug into it and extracted the dialer and phone apk's. I dont know if I need any xml or jar files to go with it. The record on the fly option I really liked and want to retain this. There is a call recording app someone made (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=967297) but it records all incoming and outgoing calls and after the call the option to delete pops up. I would like to have control of which calls I record so this is why I want to add this feature from the donor rom to Andromeda.

Thanks for any help you can give.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
JS8 is 2.2.1. that is why you are having problems
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
You have to be rooted to do this. The easiest way is by using Root Explorer. It's a paid app, but worth the few bucks. Copy the MusicPlayer.apk file to a folder on your phone (I have one named My Stuff just for things like this). Go into system/app folder, click on Mount R/W and rename Music.apk to Music.bak (long press on it and select rename). Then copy or move the new apk over to the system/app folder. Reboot and enjoy.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billlapinga:
Pirateghost, thanks for the reply. If my donor rom being a 2.2.1 is a problem then I will look for a 2.2 rom that has record option. My main question is what exactly would I need from the donor rom to make this port over to Adromeda?

Hi, sorry if this question has been answered but I've read about an hours worth of threads and did not find anything on this. Search says temporarily down..

im running andromeda 3 on my captivate, with the bundled kernel and modem when all of a sudden my volume becomes no louder than a whisper when its maxed out. i for the life of me cant figure out what has happened, it was stable for about 5 days and now its so quiet i cant hear any alarms or incoming phone calls.

anyone have any idea?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n7slc:
I'm not having that particular problem but I am having issues with stability. Sometimes the camera will force close, the phone locks up or yesterday, the drop down notification window wouldn't come down.

I've resorted to a daily reboot to maintain stability. I always had to do that with my iPhone so I'm used to it...

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
go download Audio Manager from the market and verify the volume settings with it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
I've been running A3 problem free since it came out, so I have to think these recent problems others are having are related to something else. A program that was installed or some setting mistakenly made wrong...I don't know, but A3 is as stable as it gets in terms of custom ROMs.

thanks a bunch, that worked instantly, it showed 7/7 vol then i turned it down in audio manager then back up to 7/7 and it was as loud as it should have been.

Either that or it just randomly started working again,
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
^^ That is not an issue which I have seen yet with Andromeda. it's likely a setting was restored from a previous ROM, or a piece of software you are running in the background.

Just Curious

Two Questions:

1. Anyone considering trying one of the newer GB ROMS? If so, which one and why?

2. How hard will it be to flash back to Andromeda3? (if the grass is not greener on the other side)

I really have no complaints about Andromeda3, it has been the best ROM I have flashed, I am just sort of curious about GB (and sort of miss flashing). :cool:

Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
Some are bricking their phones while flashing back to stock. Id wait until an official release is made.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcg5036:
Well problem came back. it cant be another ROM setting, this was a fresh install reset to stock via odin one click after a master clear. app wise i dont think im running anything crazy
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
Youce got an app which adjusts the sound volume installed, or you titanium restored a setting.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcg5036:
Edit:

Turns out the likely suspect is that the speaker gets loose and does not work properly.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
Not even tempted to try. I read some of the GB threads and it seems there are still some issues with things not working or not working right. And the process to go back is a pain. Nope, A3 is working great for me and I see nothing in GB that I absolutely must have.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captican:
I have read much of the thread about Continuum, as well as most of them about Mosaic and Mikey's GR-9, 10, 11...Many of the problems see to be the result of inexperience/impatience. That is why I am gathering information before deciding to flash.

I have been very pleased with Andromeda3 and have a hard time thinking how much better another ROM can be (considering how I use my phone), but that is why I am asking the questions now.

Thanks for your comments.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axis01:
It all comes down to what you want. For me, i've been tempted to try GB but then look at the issues some have with it. I don't trust half the guys around here when they say it runs perfectly fine and has no issues. Those same guys were all up in the CM7 threads saying the same thing and we all know the issues CM7 has. I use my phone everyday and don't want to have to worry about issues, however minor they may be. For you, it may be different. I'm waiting for someone to put out an OFFICIAL GB rom since I don't want to beta test something as potentially harmful to my phone as some of these betas are. I'd give it a few more weeks to let the flash happy guys test run them and work out the kinks. Hopefully it will be a safer and more enjoyable experience by then. On a side note, it would be GREAT if the Armani Captivate got some GB goodness. I'd love to see what Adam and the crew could do with a proper build. :D

I used crysis revolution on andromeda and the call recording waorked great. Fyi
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creepyncrawly:
Tempted a little. Not really considering it, at least not yet. Andromeda is completely stable for me. Someone said give it a couple of weeks; I say give it a couple of months.

To install one of the JVB roms requires flashing 2.3.3 bootloaders. To return to Andromeda requires flashing 2.1 or 2.2 bootloaders. It is now known that it is fairly safe to do this if you understand the process and don't do something stupid. (Flashing bootloaders is never really safe, but we've been doing it right along with Oden 3 One Click.) It is essential to flash both bootloaders together going each way. To return to Andromeda from 2.3.3, flash back to JF6 with Oden 3 One Click, then install Andromeda 3, then restore your nandroid backup. That's not so hard.

Hard bricking is possible going back and forth if you flash only one bootloader and wind up with mismatched bootloaders. This would result in a true hard brick. The 3 button fix package flashes only sbl.bin but not boot.bin. Three people reported bricking their phones in the Continuum thread from flashing back to stock with the three button fix. As I understand it, some roms, for example Cognition, also include a boot loader in the flash and can result in a hard brick.

After flashing my Captivate to Andromeda, I get really terrible reception. Really, just horrible. I can't even describe how bad.

I will get no service in places I used to get great or good reception, and I will even get no service in my own home, where I have a microcell set up to specifically prevent that.

I'm also getting really bad WiFi signal. Anything short of what a cable could cover drops me to the lowest signal level and has loading times to reflect it.

I've tried flashing the modem to the other two on the Team Komin site. One appeared to do nothing, and the other one made my system highly unstable and caused all sorts of things to force quit. Do I just need to try a different modem? If so, what do people recommend?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
^^ You should clear all data from your phone. It's likely that the problem is caused by pre-existing data. Also, when you do a Titanium restore, select the individual packages and restore them, rather then bulk-restoring everything.

Peak / Non-peak email synch missing in 1.2

I've been very happy with your ROM, been on 1.0, 1.1, 1.2. I thought I remembered on earlier versions that the native email app had the ability to define peak and non-peak synch times. I don't see that ability in 1.2. Is there a different .apk that I could load to get this functionality?

Update: The email.apk in 1.0 is 1230 KB, in 1.2 1223 KB. When I went to 1.1 I used the 1.0 -> 1.1 upgrade which did not overwrite the email.apk. When I went to 1.2 I used the 1.2 Final load which did overwrite the email.apk.

Can I sideload the 1.0 email.apk onto my cappy running 1.2?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:

Must of been on Cog3.04, will verify on my wife's phone when she gets home. The Cog3.04 email apk is attached.

Update: Checked and it's not on the Cog3.04 phone either. Then I thought maybe it was on the Tab email app that you can load using SGS tools. Loaded it up, but not there either. I have only loaded Andromeda and Cog Roms, so am really confused, but I know I saw it. I am running totally Adromeda 1.2 (Rom, Modem, Kernel). I did have JK4 modem and Speedmod kernel on 1.1 before. Would one of them provided a different email client?

If there are no easy answers don't spend a lot of effort on it. It would be nice to not poll my work email so often after hours though.

Update 2: Installed Cog4 and the option is there in the native email app. Options for "Out of Office Settings" and "Sync Schedule" are present.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
^^ Please describe the problem in more detail. Do you have a screen lock set up? Do you have a corperate account?

When I turn off my phone and turn it on, I have it set up to require a combination to unlock it. This is an option under settings/location and security. This is the only security validation my phone requires. My email does not require a pin. It has a password.

I'm not following you on this.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazabi:
I have a corporate email account setup, it requires either a PIN or password for security on the phone. When my screen shuts off, and I turn it back on, it locks immediately.

On the stock Captivate, it didn't lock for a while with the screen off.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
^^ One of the benefeits of Andromeda is additional security. You'll notice that you also have the ability to make your phone text message to 5 of your contacts if someone takes your phone and inserts their SIM card. I've personally gone through and monitored the data streams in and out of the phone to verify that nothing is comming in or going out that would not be considered "normal". The security on this build is what I like about it.

This ROM is different then AT&T's ROM. You will find variations like that. Unfortunately, I cannot test corporate email. I use IMAP and POP3 only. However, you are more then welcome to build a custom ROM. We have 1click build instructions on teamkomin.googlecode.com. You are likely looking at replacing the settings.apk, and the email.apk. I cannot be sure of this though because, again, I do not have a corporate email account to test.

You could increase your display time, or ask your corporate provider to adjust settings to something a bit less stringent.

I haven't read of any feathers that GB offers that amounts to making it worth the effort, even it it runs great.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
I'm eager to upgrade myself.. I will restrain myself until it's a stable platform with a stock downgrade available as a reference before attempting to flash what can only be described as a Beta or Release Candidate version. If you're daring, or have a spare phone, by all means upgrade.

Running beta operating systems is risky any time you do it, even on your PC. The difference between this device and your PC is that the "OneNAND" (internal storage), is actually soldered and glued to the top of the processor... If something is wrong with the bootloader, or an error occurs during transfer you have to perform a detailed recovery process. Currently the only way we have to recover it involves surface-mount micro-sodering on a 16 pin header connection inside the phone which is small enough to fit inside the headphone jack... This is enough to sway me away from playing with 2.3.3 until it's ready.

We're working on ways to load a new IBL/PBL, Param.ifs, SBL and SBL2 from externalSD. If we can find a way to destroy the IBL, then we can do it easily. The day we figure out how to destroy the IBL partiton from the OneNAND using Hardware/IROM/PBL only, is the day we have free reign over development of this phone, and the day I will be running beta operating systems.

Hey guys, having a strange issue with my phone. Sometimes when I dial a number the speaker remains off/silent even though it looks like the call connects. The call timer starts but I can't hear anything. The calls actually do connect, because I've received calls back from these numbers (they say I was just silent then disconnected). Incoming calls are fine, and it only seems to do this to certain numbers.

This may simply be an AT&T issue or even an issue with the person receiving calls, but I figured I'd ask here to see if anyone else has had this issue. I'm on Andromeda3 / ursa minor #2.
