Hi, sorry for a couple noob questions, but I dont know where else to go.

First, most importantly, is the FF keyboard. Not swype, but the other one. :D I lost it when I installed the multi touch keyboard. I dont like the multi touch, and want the old one back. Anyone know how I do this?

Secondly, I dont see an easy way to search a thread. Is there a "search thread" button that Im just not seeing?

1) Nothing can be done about that as of now.

No. for that you will have to use another launchers

This should definitely not happen, try downloading the file again.

If you use the update package then it wont update you kernel as that might be a personal preference of users and I don't want to override that.

Issues with Firefly 3.0

First off, let me simply say that I love the Firefly 3.0 Rom. Overall its performance

is terrific, any lagging I had with the stock froyo rom is gone!

I do have a few issues:

1. For some reason the application screen (the gigantic vertically scrolling awesome window) will randomly go back to the start (or not) when I toggle back

to the home screen.

2. Speaking of applications, when I try to copy an application to the home screen,

it will randomly disappear without applying. Later it may appear in a folder on the

home screen (I make heavy use of folders on the home screen). They will always

copy into an open folder, however. But sometimes when I take them out of the folder, they disappear!

Thanks!

And thanks for your work. I'm sure I'm just doing something wrong.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Umm I would suggest backing up everything with Titanium Backup (TiBu), clear cache and dalvik in cwm, reflash FF 3.0 (over your curent one through cwm recovery, just install zip from sd) and restore apps + data only with TiBu (do not ever restore system files).

You will have to re-enter your email accounts / wifi wep and stuff but I'm thinking it will fix your problem.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmroy:
Thanks - I'll try it. I DID restore SOME system data.... like wifi and such. Sigh.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
There's a app to restore your wifi data (can't remember the name but can probably look it up, it was mentionned in Mosaic's thread).

If you backup the app through TiBu, it will remember your wifi data on restore :)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Umm I could be so wrong about this but.. Could it be a sensor thing?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
I'm confused about the issue actually ... From what I gather you are in the app drawer hit the home button and then open the app drawer again and sometimes it'll be st the top of the list and sometimes it won't? Is that what's happening? Idk..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Oh wow now you confused me. Totally didn't read it like that :confused:

If you're right, how is that an issue? lol Doesn't make any sense to me!?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmroy:
That's actually what is happening.

I go to the App screen to copy an app up to the home screen, I do so (that appears to be okay, btw). Then I go back to the app screen, and its back at the top. ... Sometimes, actually, most of the time.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmroy:
Yeah - the app screen is sometimes starting at the top again, sometimes its not.

It would probably be less of an issue if it was starting at the top all the time, I guess.

But its not. I kinda expect it to stay where I left it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
It should do that, with that launcher, start at the top after being at the home screen. Idk how you got it to NOT do that sometimes?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Umm well I'm glad you can move your app to your home screen w/o any problem.

As for the app drawer, mine always stays where I left it when I close it (I tried many ways to close it and still stays at the same place). But then again, I'm not on FF 3.0 anymore.

It's not much of a issue, I mean, it's not FC anything so I'm thinking you might've to live with it :o

Switching launcher isn't necessary. I changed mine for more customization but I also paid for it.

It's a personnal decision. I like to be able to mod as many things as I can and make the phone "mine" :)

As for switching launcher, you can download it through the market (I personnaly love ADW Ex). You must know that different launcher will use more battery than others. (Launcher Pro is one of them, very good launcher but uses more battery). You can open the app in your drawer for customization :)

Once it is downloaded, very easy: Hit the home button and it will give you a choice to choose between the 2 launchers. (you can save the one you want it to use as well)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmroy:

I lost the home button on my dock? I replaced it with a game without meaning too. How can I get the home button from the dock back?

Comment by BobRub...@gmail.com, Dec 10, 2010

Press menu/add (or long press on the home screen) and select Custom shortcut. This is a little frontend to the standard “add shortcut” menu but allowing you to change the icon and the label. And even calling “hidden activities” of other apps. Select "Pick your activity" and select "Launcher Actions" Choose Open/close App Drawer, click ok to add that icon to your home screen. Then just drag it down to the dock. Good luck!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
You will have to unistall and reinstall.

Loosing signal on receiving calls

Hi there

I seem to be dropping my signal upon getting a call. It will ring for a brief second, and then it will go back to the home screen and loose reception, the caller will get a busy signal (didn't even know you could get those on cell phones...), and I won't get any missed calls (or any calls for that matter) in the log.

Subsequent calls have been met with no dial tone, and then straight to voice mail. At that point I won't have any indication that someone tried to call, not even a ring.

Is this a modem issue? I'm fairly new to flashing so I'm not too sure what's going on.

A reboot seems to allow it to ring at least, but only for a second and then the caller gets a busy signal.

This was flashed on yesterday night, and I'm pretty sure that was the first phone call I received since flashing. Tried calling myself from a home phone to the same results. Making phone calls works and sounds just fine.

Also: I am on Rogers if that makes any difference.

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KayvinM:
I don't see the modem being the culprit here but before you try flashing another one you can try clearing cache and dalvik cache from recovery as well as doing a factory reset to see if that clears up the issue. Curious, can you access data at all? (download from market/web browse)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andeke07:
