This worked for me the first time it happened and again using Firefly 3.0.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fivehundredmiles:
Hi, I've just switched from an old Cognition ROM (from maybe October or something) to Firefly 3.0, and everything seems to work great, except I've lost network coverage twice now. That is to say, when the phone locks, instead of AT&T in the top right corner, it says "Emergency calls only," I get no bars, can't google anything, etc., etc. (although the GPS still works, pinpoints me accurately.)

The first time was when I was driving along a major thoroughfare in my city, which always has coverage. I fixed it by rebooting (full coverage upon reboot), but now it's happening again at home.

This has never happened before--what could be the cause?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fivehundredmiles:
Oh I also wanted to add two minor points of aesthetics-related feedback:

1. The SMS/MMS messaging interface is really ugly in my opinion. Both incoming and outgoing are gray with a very thin shadow of different colors, so it's also hard to distinguish. Any chance it could get changed to, say, Gray and Green? Blue and Green? Or something else that is both readable and fits with the theme?

2. I'm also not a fan of the dial pad look. I don't like the 3D reflective ObjectDock-style tray under the numbers. (In addition, the dialpad reverts to the stock dialpad if you have to pull it out during a call, so it's not even consistent.) The best look in this ROM in my opinion is the 3 white-on-black icons on the bottom bar, the phone/app/web trio. I would personally love to see everything follow that style.

Thanks!

I love ff 3.0 and ive tampered with a lot of others with my cappy. i just cant get a straight answer nor find anything in a thread on the simplist way to flash modems without having to disable lagfix or flash to stock? is it even possible...people on here talk about it like they dont do anything but just flash from cwm....everytime i've tried that I get a bootloop at least. then i have to start all over, and im waaay over that. i use aio toolbox to get FF, does that make a difference? cause Ive used other modems on other roms before and gotten way better service. PLEASE HELP.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
The only thing I can think it that you're flashing a GB modem.

Also, removing ext4 (lagfix) is really easy (through cwm). It will take you 5min, flash that modem you want and re-enable ext4.

Last thing, using aio toolbox doesn't change anything :)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bones2116:
You can just flash 3.0. Thats what I did last time after I flashed back to stock and then got sick of it :D Mirrors are just other sites that also provide the download as well.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MobileNick:
I was having some trouble with voice calls so wanted to try flashing a different modem. I replaced the JK4 default on FF 3.0 with UGKC1. Didn't exactly solve my issue, but the Build Number is now showing FireFly 2.5. Is this normal? i.e., did the Build Number tie in to which modem I used? Sorry if that's a noob question but first time I've done this. I thought it said FireFly 3.0 before but couldn't remember.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
the build number is in the build.prop. has nothing to do with the modem...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MobileNick:
Thanks! Weird then - I wonder if my FF 3.0 has always said "FireFly 2.5" in the Build Number? I thought it said FireFly 3.0 after I did the update to 3.0 but prior to flashing the new modem, but I can't remember right now. Can anyone verify?

I don't think so, MIUI and CM7 uses different base. I'd highly suggest to go to stock before flashing FF.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duckJAI:
I'm new to the whole android OS and its a bit overwhelming with all this info but I managed to already Root the phone and use Titanium Back up. I would like to get FF 3.0 onto the phone because this one seems the most stable of them all and would like to fix the lag on this phone.

Trying to flash the ROM onto the phone but found 2 or 3 different methods.

What are the differences between these 2 methods?

I'm currently rooted and used Titanium back up.

Firmware is 2.2 Froyo

Method 1

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1012769

Method 2

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dmncIGCx7A&feature=relmfu

Is flashing the ROM meaning flashing the kernal? Do I just pick one of the methods mentioned above and I'm ready to go?

Does FF 3.0 have a lag fix built in or do I have to get that as well?

Thanks for all the help in advance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Hey, welcome to the cappy family :)

I highly suggest you get some more reading on roms, kernel, modems and lagfix (ext4). They're all different things that are needed on your phone (Ext4 not so much).

Flashing from 2.2 won't work due to the signature verification samsung added on this build. You will either need the 3e recovery fix or flash to stock 2.1 with Odin3 One click downloader (and ONLY this one).

From there, you can flash any Froyo based rom (2.2), FireFly being my personal fav ;)

In the rom, the kernel and the modem are included. Lagfix ia part of the kernel which is available with the one in FireFly (Speedmod). To enable it, go in recovery after booting up once and you will have the option to do it. Once again, I suggest you read up on it before doing so!

One more thing, don't forget to disable lagfix if you decide to flash another rom. Otherwise, chances are that your phone won't boot up :o

Hope this help! :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duckJAI:
Thanked!

I'm glad I asked or I wouldn't have known.

I'm also coming from the Rogers network.

I'll do some more reading on the topic, since I missed the 2.2 signature build that won't let me flash FF 3.0

Reading this entire thread and the FireFly ROM thread should be sufficient to know all the things needed to be done correctly I'm assuming?

And because of my 2.2 build, I'm assuming I can follow this GUIDE since it's specifically for 2.2.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1012769
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
That is one good way to do it.

The other way (which I personnaly find easier), is to get Odin3 One Click Downloader and flash back to stock (don't master clear, just hit start after getting your phone in download mode, usb connected of course). Once on stock 2.1, there is no more signature verification and you can flash FF from there.

Rename FireFly 3.0.zip to update.zip and flash through ROM Manager. Boot up, wait for it to load, go in recovery and you will be able to enable to enable lagfix from there, switch all RFS to Ext4.

Firefly 3 questions from a noob.

I am a noob for sure but managed to install Firefly 3.0 onto a Rogers I896 (somehow). Rooted the phone, crippled the 3e to install the Clockwork Mod recovery, and it all worked. Couldn't restore the apps from Titanium Backup without Breaking the OS (due to a lack of knowing what I should restore and what I shouldn't). So I re-installed everything.

The reason I did it at all was a lack of BT voice dialing. That's fixed now. Firefly is AWESOME for sure. (I even have the WAP working for my wife's iPad) awesome extra bonus for sure.)

I would however like to have KIES back working. The phone boots and say Samsung I896 for a second, then says Galaxy S I897. I assume it's from the Flashing. The Product code is Changed, there are a couple of other weird things when I look into the details using SGS tools. Once I was Flashed to Firefly and plugged it back into my PC new drivers installed and KIes says "Device not supported". I think its Product code and NV data related (I am also a noob haha).

I didn't know enough to back up my EFS folder and the NV_DATA.BIN. Have read some about the MD5 and Root explorer, Product codes, Hex editors and how to restore it. Fortunately the phone works and I have no IMEI issues. I have a spare phone exact same everything. Is there an easy way to restore that product code. I would hate to start this all from scratch again. But If i have to I have to.

Anyways this is getting to long so hopefully someone with some real smarts on this can assist me if they have some insights. It would be appreciated.

Again the ROM is awesome aside from my mistakes. Can't wait to learn a bit more so I am not so nooooooooooobbbbbb.

I had been doing the no-wipe updates from 2.2 to 3.0. Just to clean things up, I decided to install 3.0 from scratch. All is well, but a couple of things:

1. I noticed Flash is no longer working in either default browser or Opera Mobile (it was working fine before).

2. When I tried to install Flash from the Market, I keep getting an "Insufficient Storage" error. I did some searching and found various fixes - clearing the Download Manager data, rebooting, etc. but nothing helps.

EDIT: I got it working! :) One tip said to first uninstall Flash & then reinstall but I couldn't find it to uninstall. Another suggestion said go to /data/data/ and see if you have a com.adobe.flashplayer. I deleted that file and was able to install from Market!

SMS Timestamps

Right now my incoming texts are samped 5 hours in the future.

I use GO SMS which used to have it's own time offset option. I used that to fix the SMS timestamp problem instead of applying one of the fixes. Now that I'm on FF 2.3 I'm guessing it has the fix built in so with it adding 5 hours and GO SMS adding 5 hours my texts come in 5 hours in the future.

My problem is GO SMS doesn't have the time offset option anymore so I can't undo it. Is there any way to undo the fix in 2.3, or know of somewhere to get an older version of GO SMS that still has the option?
