Don't bother with 2.3.3. Move up to KH3, KI2,KJ2 or KJ3 roms.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movrshakr:
I don't understand this. Is there some firmware in addition to 4.5.3 that you have to install? I haven't.

I thought the entire OS was embedded within 4.5.3.

Very confused now.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
If you choose to move up to Gingerbread (2.3.3, 2.3.4, 2.3.5) you need to change to another rom. Firmware is part of the rom you can how ever change the modem to something else. I would recommend Ki2 or Kj2 roms like Fasty or Fusion. Kh3 roms are also great. I do not recommend 2.3.3.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movrshakr:
So he meant he is running 4.5.3, which oh, by the way, contains a 2.2 kernel

rather than

4.5.3 a-n-d 2.2 as if they are two separate components?

sgs kernel flasher and ursa minor 2

can someone please tell me if i can flash ursa minor from sgs kernel flasher or clockwork? i would really prefer not to use odin.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
No clue what ursa minor is, but why not use ODIN? Its only a issue when flashing a bootloaders (wich should be only be flashed with ODIN or Heimdall), if odin fails otherwise you softbrick (wich is a possibility using anything else).

Forget cognition. It was a great rom through Froyo, but get yourself one of the newer Gingerbread ROMs which are still seeing support.

FWIW - I'm Liking Serenity thus far.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
Could be. On your SD card, create a folder called "disable lagfix" (without the quotes) inside of the voodoo folder and then reboot your phone. This will disable lagfix. Then you can try to install again. If that doesn't work, Odin back to stock and then try again.

To each his own. Cog4 is a great ROM. For people who prefer Froyo over Gingerbread, it is still a great choice.

I JUST jumped from Cog 5.2 to ICS Beta2.

Easy, Peasy.

Copied the Beta2.zip to the phone and restarted CWM.

Reset to Factory

Clear Cache

Install Beta 2 Zip

It rebooted into CWM (that selects w/power, not home)

repeat above

Phone started up in ICS

Copied Fugumod_Captivate_Kernel_BETA2.zip to phone

shut down and restart in CWM with 3-button combo.

Install Kernal Zip

Phone started in ICS again.

Turn on WiFi.

Go to Market and get TiBu

Restore Amazon from TiBu

Then restore whatever I wanted from TiBu.

Wanted to post a Thank You to the guys in the [DEV][BETA 2]ICSSGS Source page, but I'm more of a lurker, and still don't have enough posts.

Miffed: call log is missing a whole days of calls

I am in a bind and am highly miffed.

I received a call the night of 12-13 that I *had to* call back later with some information once obtained. I get it today, 12-15, and go to make the call back.

But I find that the phone log in the phone stored NO calls for 12-13 (impossible...should be numerous ones there). The list contains "yesterday" (12-14), then 12-12 and prior. !2-13 is completely missing.

This inability to call the person back almost certainly has caused a major loss to me (thus the highly miffed).

And, no, I did absolutely no log maintenance or clearing--did not even access the logs until just now. I guess we depend on our technology too much.

Major, costly FAIL.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vibhav:
This may be an overly-simplistic analysis and dumb suggestion on my part, but here it goes anyway. I also had a similar situation happen to me, when I needed a call time-stamp from my call log, and it wasn't there. But then I remembered that I had sent a text to that person via Google Voice, and then thought about the possibility that the person may have called me on my Google Voice number, which wouldn't show up in my phone's call log, but rather in the Google Voice app under the "Received" label. Again, this might be a dumb suggestion, but wouldn't hurt to look, eh?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movrshakr:
That is a very good thought, but not the case here. It was a call direct into my cell number. I have a Google voice number, but it is dormant; I don't use it.

I am less miffed now as I was able to do a deal with another person, so the loss is averted. If that original person decides to call me even though I did not get back to him, it will be an extra for me.

So, even though my loss was averted, the phone still failed.

Great guy, Josh, has put together great YouTube video of how to flash the Captivate to Cognition roms. Watch the videos - think it'll be in Part 2 - he shows how to do Odin3 which flashes to the ATT Stock 2.1. You can continue to do the Master Clear too - that will clean out all the garbage files. That'll get you to 2.1.

Check the developers site, all your questions can be answered there. As for lock screens, the 4.0 stock rom only has one...the newer 4.1 has 5 lock screens. Get used to flashing, these roms seem to change frequently.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OBatRFan:
Thank you. When upgrading to 4.1, should I flash back to stock first?

NVM-Answered my own question withe guide on ponack.net, but this raised another question: Can I upgrade without a computer? It sounds like I can download the update straight to my phone and install without a PC. Is this dangerous/impossible?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] movrshakr:
Haven't done mine yet (scaredy cat I guess). But I envision losing all my contacts, losing my launcher ADW, having to put all my shortcuts back on the five home screens, losing all of the email account registrations in several apps, losing the registration keys for bought apps, etc.

Does Tibu save all of these and put them back even if you do not restore system data?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xFangireKingx:
It will save most of those. If you don't wipe your internal sd you should still have your app settings and all that. For contacts, if you have them saved to the google cloud then you'll get those back on next sync, or you can just export them to an external sd card then import them after you flash.

I know how you're feeling, I just flashed a new rom for the first time myself the other day, it's not so scary after you've done it once or twice. Just do a TiBu backup, a clockwork mod recovery backup, and you should be fine even if something goes wrong.

As for google contacts, in stock phone, your phone entered entries WILL NOT go up to google. Ones in google will come down; it is a one-way road for inexplicable reasons.

Just upgraded to 4.1 today and where are all the Captivate default sounds?

They have all been replaced with Atrix sounds!

I actually liked using a couple here and there for different types of notifications.

I thought Cog was suppose to stay to the Samsung roots so how is replacing everything with Atrix stuff doing this?

I would also like to know how to get the dialpad sounds from Perception into Cog?

I just recently switched back to Cog since hes not going to work on Perception anymore and thats one feature I really liked and now Im missing it with Cog.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xFangireKingx:
For me it saves to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup. It should save everything, contacts, applications, settings; when you restore it should be exactly the way it was when you made the backup.

If you can't sync them with google, just export to/import from an external sd card, that's how I've been doing it and it works fine for me.

Hmmm. Perhaps I'm OD-ing on stupid pills, but how do I change the lock screen?

as for the silent you will need to disable vibrate in sound settings to go to silent from the drop down or with the volume keys. why they changed that in 2.2 is beyond me lol

Flashing from Perception 10.3 to Cog 4.1 help

Im thinking of moving to the latest Cognition Rom, Im currently running Perception 10.3 with speedmod k12t kernel.

I'm prepared to update to Cog 4.1.1 after reading through the ENTIRE thread on it (that took a while). My phone is the stock AT&T Captivate running 2.2 Froyo (via Kies Mini). The only changes I've made are rooting the phone (via SuperOneClick ShortFuse) and installing the few apps needed to perform the ROM flash (TiBu Pro, ROM Manager). However, I want to ensure that I have a way to return to the exact state of my stock setup (but still rooted) so I was wondering how to create a "backup ROM" of my current phone setup. I tried the "Backup Current ROM" in ROM Manager but all it does is reboot the phone (into 3e recovery) and none of the options allow me to perform a backup.

Edit: Would one way of returning to my current state simply to me to use Odin3 to flash back to 2.1 JF6 stock and then use Kies Mini again to reapply the 2.2 stock AT&T update? After that, I could use TiBu to return all user apps + data (not system data) back to what I have right now.
