Yes it does the same for me I even put the modem.bin from JK4 into the update that atinm posted and it still says JL3. I don't know how that could be unless it is actually running JK4 but reporting JL3.

New Nightly 7.1? Where is that at?

Edit: Nvmd. I found it. Going to put it on there now.
[Captivate Android Development] Smasher816:
Ya Odin one click back to stock 2.1

That's how it worked for me, however that was back when cm7 just got ported.

so it might not work, it should though.

as with everything I can't be held accountable if you brick or something.
[Captivate Android Development] zuN!:
Does signing the apk have anything to do with this...(although apk doesn't seem to have anything to do with the modem but it shows on the right hand side of Winrar)
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
Modem partition got changed, old zips wont flash modems properly. For now just drop the modem.bin in the nightly, and flash it.
[Captivate Android Development] SweetwaterBurns:

Various modems for the new layout. Drop your preferred modem in one of these and it'll flash fine despite saying galaxys.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Did that and it still says JL3 even though I dropped the JK4 modem.bin in the nightly. I think it actually JK4 but for some reason it is reporting it as JL3
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
This worked...Thanks for the link. It is now reporting JK4 again.:)
[Captivate Android Development] wvmstr:
That was the problem, only the internal was recognized by the computer.

Now, for some unknown reason it has straightened itself out.

Everything works as it should.

Weird.
[Captivate Android Development] jaxf250:
Thanks - I inserted KC1 into one of those and reflashed - all is good now. Off to test....
[Captivate Android Development] kinubic:
been on nightly #9 for awhile now! seems to happened 70% of the time but when i make a call the screen turns else everything is fine so far
[Captivate Android Development] Smasher816:
It was back on page 741.

Now for my question. Why are you all trying to switch away from the JL3 modem, is there something bad about it i should know about.

And does the 2G/3G toggle work? I know it was broken at the beginning and would give you a phone crash loop until a data wipe.
[Captivate Android Development] Gr8Danes:
I did a search of this tread, but don't see anyone else mention what I have come across yet.

Is anyone else having trouble playing WMA files with the media player? When I use file explorer, I get an error: "Sorry, the player does not support this type of audio file". If I download the new Music app from google, I get a "Error playing the requested track". If I use Winamp and open it through file explorer, I get the same error "Sorry, the player does not support this type of audio file".

Prior, I was running an old Phoenix ROM and it played fine. Only after I flashed CM7 nightly 16 this started happening.

Any thoughts? At first, I thought that it was because I had them on my external SD and it was not being seen, but I transferred them to the internal SD and the same result. They are seen, but not able to be played.

Thanks in advance. Not sure if this is a bug or something I am missing.
[Captivate Android Development] Smasher816:
I'm pretty sure its from a lax of codex's. Samsung's closed source roms have extra codex's that CM7's open source ones do not include. It has been mentioned a few times in this thread about problems playing certain types of videos or music.
[Captivate Android Development] rwells813:
Idk about you guys, but the LED lights stay on constantly until I lock the phone. Using the 7.1 update. sucks especially at night. I know he stopped the bln. For now, but i didnt assume this would be affected. Something im missing?

[Captivate Android Development] Seraphimos:
Same here, and I love it. I don't understand what could suck about it. Now I know exactly which button I'm hitting all the time. It really sucks to get the back and home buttons mixed up, which I do sometimes when in landscape. A toggle would be nice, though.

so i went from continuum 5.5 to latest ver of cm7 and ive done this twice now and somehow when i restore my apps from tibu which i do have the latest ver too i cant restore my txt msgs and my wifi points..even some of the settings in my apps which is fine..but to me wifi points are the most important then txt msgs then app settings..and i thought it would work cause its worked before and because theyre both gingerbread. cause you see continuum is 2.3.3 and cm7 is 2.3.4. not sure if that really does make a diff considering the fact theyre both gingerbread when i do backup from continum it says on the files sms settings or whatever im backing up 2.3.3 then when im about to restore them on cm7 it says 2.3.4..weird..someone please help these are my only problems other than those..this rom is PERFECT. and its not even final yet.. =)
[Captivate Android Development] phaedrusiszen:
Cyanogenmod is on Android 2.3.4, Samsung is behind that.

You need to take it up with the developer of Titanium Backup, it not restoring things properly probably isn't a Cyanogenmod issue.

From what I understand, he is responsive to questions/concerns

The modems provided on cm7 sourceforge download page don't work with 7.1.0 hmmmm the modems work fine with #16
[Captivate Android Development] Lhernandez0105:
Doesn't that have something to do with the way cm7 writes data. I remember reading back that you can't restore date only apps.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
There are no modems provided on the cm7 sourceforge download site that I can see. Can you point them to me so I can delete them? Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
Juatfound that problem too, after i flashed jk4 in recovery, came back to no service, baseband unknown
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
So would I need to Odin to stock to go to 16 and have it work
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Have what work? You should just be able to flash 16 if that is what you want to flash.
[Captivate Android Development] SweetwaterBurns:
Repost for people who can't read back 3 or 4 pages...
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
If I get no service after flashing 16
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Reflash again - without going to stock. Just do it over right on top of 16 - you most probably have a bad block in your modem partition.
[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
Ive just flashed the so called safe build (13) how do i turn off bln? Sometimes i cant chevk my phone for a while dont want it killing my battery
[Captivate Android Development] skeepon:
so is 7.1 a stable release?
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
You go into settings> CM settings> Interface> LED Notifications. You might have to edit all the colors for your apps or notifications to either NONE or give them a dark color and the capacitve buttons won't light up when you get a notifiication.
[Captivate Android Development] jangeles323:
If it still says "nightly" it is not a stable release.
[Captivate Android Development] PresidentJFJ:
So far it seems like the best build for me. Running theescapist's kernel and its super fast and there's really no glitches. Battery life still seems poor even though the phone now goes into deep sleep more easily. That being said I am running a custom kernel so I can't comment on the performance of the battery running stock (also froze my phone twice today undervolting too far and battery pulls eat quite a bit of battery). Still, the rom runs the way android is meant to run. No hiccups whatsoever.

Question to anyone who can answer:

Does running voltage control and setcpu at the same time work or am I just hurting my battery by making profiles?
[Captivate Android Development] skeepon:
oh ok. it doesnt say nightly anywhere, thats why i asked:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/teamhacksung/files/captivate/
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
A 'KANG' is even less stable than a nightly, if that is possible.
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
It shouldn't hurt your battery too much. Some people use multiple apps for OC/UV. I just use Voltage Control.. Its got it all. But yeah, you can use those 2 and it will work.
[Captivate Android Development] skeepon:
haha ok cool. thanks :D

also, after i install a nightly, all my apps seem to fc. i restore them with titanium backup. im not restoring system data, just apps+data. i tried fixing permissions with rom manager, and even going back to stock, and reflashing cm7. could the fc problem be from restoring my apps?
[Captivate Android Development] bash31:

Thanks - had totally forgotten that we'd had them back in March. Gone now as they obviously do not work.
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
so if we flashed one of these and are working on 13 and want to continue to flash updates as they come out should we go back to stock?
[Captivate Android Development] Killemalll:
I'm running Nightly #16 with the OC/UV Platypus kernel @1.2Ghz and in the last few days I saw the longest CM7 battery life since March releases.

Nightly #16 stock battery life wasn't much of an improvement compared to the previous updates. The Platyups kernel battery optimization code seems to have some noticeable effect.
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
do you have GPS problems on 16?
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Voodoo sound is coming to the stock kernel....:D
[Captivate Android Development] bluerogue85:
aw man that sucks..so i lose all my sms txt msgs and my wifi access points which is the most important??? =( tibu came out wiht a new a new version stating its got a new sqliteuser3 and busybox ver..hopefully this fixes it.. thats the only thing thats keeping me from staying on cm7 is restoring data on cm7 from tibu..even some of my apps lost its data and had to start over..i came across this too..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1087440
[Captivate Android Development] Killemalll:
GPS is crappy as usual.

I wish they would add Voodoo color as well. That's the main reason for me to go to a custom CM7 kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
crappy yes but when I tried to use 16 the gps did not work at all.
[Captivate Android Development] jangeles323:
You can back up your sms using "sms back up and restore"
[Captivate Android Development] Killemalll:
The cell locks in 5-10 secs with the GPS Test app. After that tracking on Google Maps works sketchy as usual. If I don't kickstart the GPS with GPS Test, Google Maps takes several minutes to get a lock on the satellites.

This is the same issue I had since I bought the phone about a year ago. And I have tried a dozen different ROMs. I don't expect improvements anymore.
[Captivate Android Development] mcann:
GPS/CM7

I purchased my Cappy the day it was released. The GPS was decent, but not great. I was having trouble with charging so I returned it for a new phone (30 day exchange). The next phones GPS was awful at best. I usually had a large blue circle when it worked. I got another new phone, actually a refurbed build 1007. It's been spot on. It was good on stock Eclair, all of the Froyo roms I tested and now on CM7, build 12 nightly. So while I was nervous at first to disrupt my working GPS on the 1007, I've come to the conclusion that it's more dependent on the phone, not the rom. I can even use it in the cupholder between the front seats which doesn't have a great view of the sky. Just my 2 cents.
[Captivate Android Development] biggem001:
Well, GPS is amazing for me. I just got a new refurbished phone and gps is full signal within 10 seconds. My previous phone, same exact OS got TERRIBLE gps, RARELY ever locked.

Honestly, i think its 98% hardware. Because upgrading to CM7 on my last phone made my gps a LITTLE better, sometimes a lock but it would never follow (when before it was never a lock on stock)

Now, same OS, newer model Captivate (well later production date im assuming since the IMEI is quite a bit higher) and GPS is perfect. I don't think it's anything we can do anymore. Just wait until 11 months and get a refurb. :P
[Captivate Android Development] biggem001:
my exact situation too, well i just got a newer refurb and its AMAZING
[Captivate Android Development] :
Worth installing Cyanogen Mod right now? I have this itch to but i dont want the rom to be extremely unstable. I mean I know its unstable but i want it to be useable and the GPS to work.
[Captivate Android Development] Killemalll:
Install it. You'll never look back.
[Captivate Android Development] jaysix79:
I think its worth it.. I love this rom, i been using it for months now without any major problem.. it does have some bugs but nothing major..

ill be honest though I'm still using nightly 05152011 update... Newer nightly doesn't let you use custom screen brightness lower than 20. having lower brightness can significantly save battery life and this rom use lots of power.. which is why I use 05152011. also newer update gives me random reboot even with a fresh install (this one was fix in nightly #16)...

I missed updating my phone, untill i find another update that has better brightness control ill stay with nightly 05152011
[Captivate Android Development] hernan078:
How do you control your brightness even more?
[Captivate Android Development] mnjm9b:
You can use a different kernel.

I am on 16 using theEscapist kernel.

Brightness works down to 1

But you need to reset voodoo color to default settings or anything under 5 is green.
[Captivate Android Development] tiuk:
While we're on the subject of downgrading, can we just flash an older nightly over a newer one, or do we have to wipe and flash as initial?
[Captivate Android Development] jaysix79:
hows battery life with escapist kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] jaysix79:
go on settings (under Cyanogen settings, then display)

but remember it only works on older nightly
[Captivate Android Development] mnjm9b:
I couldn't say for sure...

I got about the same as any other kernel. But then I wasn't using any of the oc settings.

I am back to stock kernel for now

(troubleshooting...)
[Captivate Android Development] Aztecbandit:
K so let me ask cuz I'm a lil lost. I'm running KB1 stock but rooted... nothings changed on my phone except im rooted... do I have to flash any sort of kernel or can I just do the whole thing thru ROM Manager? Or at least any of the processes shown?

Sent from my iDon't care what you say its not an iPhone or a Droid, phone
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
You can do it through ROMManager or flash a kernel with clockworkmod and install from recovery. I think you need the premium version of ROMManager.
[Captivate Android Development] Aztecbandit:
K so if I do all through ROM manager it doesn't require flashing a new kernel? K than ill go that way. I need a simple quick way to do it.

[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Wanted to throw this out there. On a refurb Cappy from 2 months ago, with build 16 and Escapists nightly 2, I opened up navigation to get me to a place about 20 minutes away. It always had a tiny circle around it, so it wasn't perfectly accurate. But tracking and accuracy in terms of position on the street/block was great. Worked well and didn't even hiccup. I just wish accuracies in Maps was better. Either way, I'm satisfied with GPS and this is the first time I've used Google Navigation and I have to say it's an incredible app.

Also, this build is fast but has RAM issues. I don't have many apps, and I run out of RAM pretty frequently, where my phone slows to a crawl. I checked SystemPanel, nothing is really taking up all that much RAM, or CPU cycles. So I have no clue why it slows down like that, until I kill all running user apps (I do NOT have a Task Killer, I assure you. I use Go Launchers task widget).

Are you guys making changes to the haptic feedback intensity? The nightly from 5-15 seemed to be about twice as strong as how 7.1 feels, at least on my phone.

Is it just me, or are tweaks being made to the settings?

anyone know where the changelog is for the cm7.1 kang?

http://sourceforge.net/projects/teamhacksung/files/captivate/
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
It is some combination of the normal changelog that is linked to the first post and later things that are only in our git repositories. Once normal nightlies resume, they'll all be in the usual place. We are not going to spend any time writing changelogs specially for these kang builds because we're only putting them up temporarily for people who really want to use the latest stuff.
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
Thanks.

BTW the ril problem is fixed in the kang 7.1 nightly with jv6 modem
[Captivate Android Development] cesierra:
+1 and the toggle widget is broken
[Captivate Android Development] FeO2:
I may have missed it but when are normal nightlies anticipated to resume? Are they in a freeze leading upto a 7.1 stable release?
[Captivate Android Development] SweetwaterBurns:
I saw a tweet about some failed hard drives a few days ago. Said there would be a few days of testing before builds were back to being made again. So, assuming no more problems, I'd guess by the end of this week. Hard to find out for sure, though as I couldn't find much about what is going on beyond that tweet. You can always build it yourself if you're feeling adventurous.
[Captivate Android Development] cotr:
seconded. works extremely well know with the jv6 post on the modem thread.
[Captivate Android Development] jaysix79:
I'm running the latest nightly kang 7.1. I can't don't load anything of the market. Is that normal with this build. Everything stock with jv6 modem. I tried wiping dalvik and cache. And reinstall Google apps. Still I can't update or download anything off the market. Any fix?
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
factory reset and reinstall gapps
[Captivate Android Development] jaysix79:
Kinda hoping not to go that route.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
I think unfortunately something gets messed up once in a while. I ad the same issue when I first installed #16 and was only able to update 1 app then it quit on me. I tried for hours messing with reinstalling gapps and everything to no avail. Then tried going back to build #15 and it wouldn't work for me either. So I finally gave up and did a factory reset reinstalled gapps and finally got it working. Then the next day CM7 7.1 came out and I was afraid I would have issues again, but it worked fine.
