ill try it this way... thank you... renaming the file is not in the instruction... sorry guys i'm kinda dumb...
[Captivate Android Development] jaysix79:
that was my bad... i kinda forgot about renaming the file... I been using the old way of flashing CM7 using odin.... I've doing it so many times (probably more than 30 times) that i forgot about renaming file to update to flash...

thank you again for clarifying

Nightly Updates

My Post disappeared so I obviously did something wrong...

I would like to update to the most recent nightly build. There are several other files uploaded about 6 hours ago listed below including new modem, kernel etc. Do I need to also flash those or are they included in the nightly build?

Thanks

Yes.. I did sorry.. since CM7 works so much better than the previous roms/os builds I was using, I rarely need to hop on here! (shame on me) I see that I put my post elsewhere. Sorry for the mishap all!

Hey Atinm, the j4fs driver was open-sourced.

I borked my linux box, so I don't even have a working build environment to look at it yet, but I figured you might need that. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
It's a no-op for us as it still depends on STL and/or BML. Only reason we want to read/write params.lfs is for getting into download mode from software and reading charging mode on plugin of usb. Neither is very high priority as download mode can be got into via buttons and charging mode is just a nice to have.
[Captivate Android Development] cumanzor:
Samsung's stock roms do have awesome compatibility though.

Oh dear, 720p recording, cm7 is going leaps and bounds, it's seriously awesome. I'm currently trying som JVB ROMs and so far GR-12 has been great, but I would love to come back to CM.

Wish I didn't have to restore the old booloaders :(

MMS issues from 5/6 nightly

I did a full wipe and am on the 5/6 nightly. Add me to the list who are having issues receiving MMS from iPhones. Here's what's happening to me:

- from an iPhone: I receive the MMS but the picture does not download. Instead, the download button appears and nothing happens when I click it.

-from an Android: Works perfectly

-from Windows Mobile: Works perfectly.

Text messages work fine from all platforms.

So, what's changed since the 4/21 build that allowed me (and others) to receive MMSes from iPhones with no issues?

-Matt
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
LoL...i think it supposed to do that. Mine did for 3 sec then booted. It's a joke right? also when u flash the kernel....
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
Only when you flash my kernel, stock kernel doesn't do that.

Oh, and guy with the terrible battery life. I'm not sure what to tell you, nothing really stands out to me. Make sure your phone is properly going to sleep, flash a new modem, etc.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
2.3.4 happened upstream. And something changed there. But don't know what. iPhone breaks the specification, so I blame Apple. But a logcat would be nice.
[Captivate Android Development] amarpatel:
oh man---720p recording. That's one of the things I was waiting for to go back to CM7... How's battery life with the latest build?
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
Better than it was before. I can't give you a direct answer right off the bat, as I've been rebooting and stuff, but you should get at least a few more extra hours out of similar usage (if not more).
[Captivate Android Development] Tankmetal:
Hi guys,

I flashed the Initials got the ROM working and i like it. but when i flashed the 05-04 nightly my phone lost mobile data. it showed that i had bars but no data icon. i got 3G back by toggling the 2G option in the network settings but i had to do this after every reboot and never got HUSPA back.

So i reflashed the Initials because they work except for no external SD detected by the phone. what steps need I take to flash the Nightly?
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
have you perhaps ever flashed a samsung gingerbread ROM (or anything based on JVB)? because a gingerbread bootloader can screw things up pretty badly and lack of working external sd card is one of those.

Hey, any of you guys/gals running CM7 have the current issues we have in MIUI, namely Google Voice force closing when attemtpting to type letter in the To box and MMS not sending texts when the phone # for a given contact is in 999-999-9999 (as opposed to no dashes, i.e. 9999999999) format; if not in 9999999999 format, the text is rejected with an error message that there is no valid recipient.
[Captivate Android Development] Tankmetal:
yeah i was running mosaic 1 before this. but i went back to stock before flashing Cyanogen using odin3
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
and are you sure you flashed a full firmware with correct bootloaders. if you have to ask "how do I check?" then you probably didn't.
[Captivate Android Development] Tankmetal:
Ok thanks. That will be the next thing I try tonight after work.

Edit: i restored it to stock with Odin3 one click downloader if that makes a difference. i read that it restores the bootloaders too. correct me if im wrong.
[Captivate Android Development] amarpatel:
Excellent! I've been running GR-10 for a few days... I think it's finally time to flash back to CM7!
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
You guys have Come so far since 3/11 when I started using CM7 and I could not go back. With the newest build my battery life is finally the same as stock.

You guys Rock.
[Captivate Android Development] zuN!:
There's still an issue with the softkeys. When I get a text message, I open it up, and when I press the back softkey, it doesn't work. Would you like a dmesg or logcat? I'm not too familiar with how logcats or dmesg works btw :(

BTW, I believe this softkey issue started when LED notifications were implemented. TheEscapist managed to fix this issue in his kernels though.
[Captivate Android Development] gephross100:
can i use one click to flash this rom now or no?
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
the escapist uses neldar's BLN implementation which is wildly different than than the one used by us (designed by kang). as for your issue, sometimes if you try to use the key as you get a notification, it can interfere. simply locking and unlocking the screen will fix it

So it Gingerbread/Cyanogemod 7 for the captivate/galaxy S pretty much the same as cyanogemod 7 for other android phones? Or is there an advantage for the galaxy S phones since they are so similar to the nexus S?

Mine didn't at first, but after a reboot it seems to be working fine now.
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
There is no FPS cap, and I regularly see some parts of quadrant fly by at 38 FPS. the problem with quadrant (extremely noticeable on the "rotating planets" animation) is that it hasn't been updated for proper gingerbread support (quadrant advanced just crashes out)

it's the exact same as if you would pop it on a G2 or motorola droid. the only difference we have is that we get to use a lot of upstream stuff for the nexus s (which also mean our devs get to take a lot of time tearing that code apart to make sure it doesn't fall apart)
[Captivate Android Development] silentheero:
In the instructions near the bottom there is a list of things to remember. One of them is to make sure you install the nexus s drivers since your machine will see it as such from now on (unless you switch back)

I found that alot of my battery drain is with cell standby which is 28% and phone idle processes.
[Captivate Android Development] TheTodFather:
I got to say i'm impressed! Glad to finally have asop on this phone. Working nice! Speedtest was incredible don't know what magic you used but i have the same modem as last time yet the speeds and pings are def. better. Got to 3.75 on speed test whereas before i was only getting 1.5-2.5 and ping was 130 and now i had it hit 101ms. I tip my hat to all the developers. Good Job! Mobile Ap is working great!

Atimn I have a question do you know where in to navigate in filemanager to modify default MTU settings for mobileAP? I'd like to try and increase the settings for a little dev I have been working on.

Or even in adb if that wont work.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] QuarkGluonSoup:
Do you mean that you don't have to modify as much of the Nexus S version of Gingerbread for the Galaxy S as you do for other phones? I wasn't sure what you meant.
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
MTU settings are set to ~1500 by stock (even xbox live only requires like 1400) and have to be configured through scripts as it's a part of the OS.

no, it means that we're using the nexus s kernel sources. there's still a lot of the OS that had to be modified to work properly with our RIL and such. every phone needs some sort of special configuration, the only thing we get out of it is a decent base for a 2.6.35.7 kernel (thought not perfect).
[Captivate Android Development] coderunner:
So am I correct to say its not possible to play videos and this time?
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
I was able to play youtube videos just fine. haven't tested anything like avi or mkv (but I hear using rockplayer, at least avi work just fine... possibly not mkv)
[Captivate Android Development] thatguysteve:
I really love CyanogenMod and want to thank everyone involved in bringing it over.

I have one question. Although not in the modem zip file, would znkp1 be a viable choice to use with this? I get really good results with it in my area and would like to use it.
[Captivate Android Development] yobbei:
Avi works fine with Rock Player but not using hardware decoding. mkv no go.
[Captivate Android Development] coderunner:
I just wanted to play avi I don't use .mkv except for movies on my computer
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
you can use whatever modem you'd like, we just provide a few known good ones. take apart the zip and replace the modem and you're good to go.
[Captivate Android Development] thatguysteve:

Just wanted to say thanks, loaded up CM7 this morning with no issues at all. Everything is working great and I haven't experienced any issues yet (been playing with the phone and settings for the last 3-4 hours).

For those that are on the weary side about flashing this, just follow the directions and you shouldn't run into problems.
[Captivate Android Development] shawn.ferris:
Hey Atinm.. I just ran across an MMS that I couldn't receive from my wife. (HTC Aria) Not sure if it's related but thought I'd offer the logcat of the download:

http://pastebin.com/MnHK5w4d

Unfortunately, that's just trying to hit the download link. When I get home, I'll do some other tests to watch it during reception, as well as varying file types. I sent myself an MMS and it was fine. If there's any more information you need, let me know..
[Captivate Android Development] SweetwaterBurns:
Small bug report, I'll file it on the issues list, if it's not already there, when I have time tonight.

If you insert a corrupted SD card(or one with no partitions, which is what I did,) you will get the standard damaged SD card dialog asking if you want to format it. If you click yes, it will format the internal SD instead of emmc.

Lost a few photos but nothing too serious.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
More logcats of more tries would be great!
[Captivate Android Development] hernan078:
will the google talk video chat feature will be implemented in the captivate, at least with the back camera?

720p recording is back!!!! :D

I love you. all of the devs for their hard work :3

now 720p avi/mkv playback will be next, right? ;) jkjk, can't possibly complain since this is all free! :D
[Captivate Android Development] :
For anyone who cares...

I was having MMS issues and ultimately discovered that my IMEI had been changed (not permanently) by the new installation technique. So I did a little experiment:

1) Flashed to stock

2) Used the old technique to install an older build of CM7

3) Flashed the most recent update

What do you know... my IMEI remained intact. So there WAS something happening/not happening during the installation using the new technique that wasn't retaining the IMEI.

Regardless... I'm THRILLED to be back with an intact IMEI and the newest build (and a work-around for the problem in case I flash stock again).
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
I guess don't bother reading the OP where it already says that gtalk video chat already works?
[Captivate Android Development] Rikusaki:
Mobo Player. Get it.

It's superior to the Samsung Video Player anyway.
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
You're joking right? Its not hardware accelerated. Play a 720p QUALITY video and watch your phone crawl. Not only 720p RES.

720p QUALITY. As in 10+ Mbps bitrate.

Not only that, since you use more CPU power instead of leaving the work to your GPU, it uses a lot more battery as well.
[Captivate Android Development] pvr:
I know usually reenconding is the reason but, srsly, 720p on a 4" screen?
[Captivate Android Development] nathanjones:
For me it's the same reason I'd like 1080p playback on any tablet I buy, I don't want the ability to play them for the picture quality, I want to know I can take any video I already have and play it on the device without re-encoding.

If I wanted to re-encode everything, I'd get an iPad or iPhone. :)

That being said, I think I've only ever watched one 720p MKV on my phone, so I can live without this for now. Heh. In fact, I'd gladly give up the ability to play 720p MKV's as long as I keep my CM7.
[Captivate Android Development] Rikusaki:
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm so dumb. I thought you just wanted to play in those other formats (not in 720p).

EDIT: I want to ask why the framerate is so slow in the video camera? It's so smooth with Samsung roms. :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
The reason is the post right below yours.

And just so you know, it takes about 1-2 hours to convert a HD movie. Despite the fact that I have an i7.... so yeah, re-encoding is not ideal for anyone...

[Captivate Android Development] edgie168:
then you're doing it wrong.

moboplayer supports h/w acceleration, but some files cannot be played via h/w, for a variety of reasons.
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
Lol, you must be God or something. The fact that you can say that with so much confidence is hilarious. There is no hardware acceleration for any files other than .mp4, .m4v, or .3gp. That's the truth. To prove it, play a 10+ Mbps bitrate 720p .mp4 video. Then play the same video, except with an .avi container. Lag will be very noticeable. If your phone doesn't lag... well, either you are blind or you have an awesome phone.

And before you go all, "oh but you just said it wasn't hardware accelerated, herp derp," look at the last page where i specifically ask for .avi/.mkv hardware accelerated video playback. So no, YOU are doing it wrong. lol.

I know I shouldn't complain and its not a big deal since its somewhat working without a ffc but I thought I would ask.
[Captivate Android Development] shawn.ferris:
Ok.. here's two more attempts.. One from an iphone 3g:

http://pastebin.com/d3TJTAxP

And another from the HTC Aria (2.1):

http://pastebin.com/7kmjQC5a

Both were captured across the initial reception of the MMS as well as trying to download it through the button/link, after the fact. Being a database guy, I cringed a little when I saw: (from the Aria MMS)

W/Database( 298): Reached MAX size for compiled-sql statement cache for database /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db; i.e., NO space for this sql statement in cache: DELETE FROM raw WHERE reference_number =201 AND address = ?. Please change your sql statements to use '?' for bindargs, instead of using actual values

If read loosely enough, the iphone could be related. ('Value length > LENGTH_QUOTE!' lack of using a bind variable/having to properly quote static strings) Entirely conjecture of course. I'll be trying to hunt the code down myself.. but I'm sure you'll all beat me to it. :D

HTH

looks like i am gonna try a reflash agian, the quick battery drain and the fact it will not show above 90% charge now is getting old...lol...seems odd that i can get 4-5 days of moderate usage on a stock rom but only about 8-10 hours with hardly any usage at all on here, but will try to do a reflash. prolly gonna get it installed and put no apps or anything at first to see how it does....

also wanted to ask what everyone thought the best modem to use was....
[Captivate Android Development] pparavas:
with light to heavy usage on escapist's kernel, i am getting around 9hrs - 12 hrs, with full screen brightness and no wifi.

With stock kernel, and light to no usage i was getting around 14 hrs to 15 hrs with 100% brightness. I basically used voltage control and undervoltage settings on stock cpu speed. expecting a bit more.. as for me, jl3 was and is the best... a small tip, if u r not particularly looking for speed, reduce ur clock speed to 800Mhz for better battery life....
[Captivate Android Development] Auridran:
4-5 days on the stock ROM? That's the most I've ever heard of. I'm pretty sure I could get 3 at best never using the phone whatsoever in that period of time.

My current battery life in CM7 with TheEscapist's kernel is similar to that which I got on Froyo ROMs. Maybe slightly worse on idle, but that's about it. In the beginning of CM7 I had problems getting a full day (12 hours or so) out of my phone with light usage, but now with moderate usage 12 hours only gets me down to about 50%.
