Well, BT headsets are a dime a dozen nowdays. It all comes down to price and comfort, with comfort being the most important thing to consider. I'd hit Amazon to browse the selection and read user reviews, then do a price check for the one that suits you best. I am using Plantronics 925 and like it OK.
[HTC Inspire 4G] digi-t:
Thanks, I just wanted to make sure I got a pair that worked good with the phone. Unlike my current one.. Searching amazon right now.

Edit: Just reset my phone and tried pairing it up again, and now it works.... Lets hope it stays...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
Hello,

I've got a new captivate something like a week ago.

I got it with preception 10.4 rom and speed mod kernel and android 2.2.1.

The phone works very fast and I'm satisfied with the speed but the battery is draining very fast.

for example, yesterday I charged the battery and went to a friend, I pictured some photos, filmed a short video (1 minute), played a little game and after 5 hours the battery was 70%, I went to sleep and after something like 9-10 hours when I woke up the battery was 27%! Without using the phone!!

Is it normal?

And for my other questions:

1. How can I know if I have the lagfix enabled?

2. Is it good to upgrade to the official version of AT&T 2.2? Some people told that this is faster.

3. If I will change the rom should I be worried of the sim free unlock (that it will lock again)?

4. What are the best rom and kernel that will be fast and will have battery saving?

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
I'm not too familiar with the Cognition ROM's. But I might take a look at WiFi, or you may have a app thats running in the background causing the drain. Do you have wifi or gps on all the time?

1. It was probably enabled by default. A really easy way is open File Explorer, go to your "Voodoo" folder, open it if there is a folder named "disable-lagfix", then your lagfix is not enabled. If you want to enable it, delete the "disable-lagfix" folder and reboot

2. I wouldn't waste my time with stock 2.2. Most all of the modded ROM's here are going to be better

3. I'm not familiar with that issue, never had it happen for myself

4. That is a hard question to answer, most of the Captivate devices are going to respond to a ROM/Kernel, a little bit differently. For example, my device LOVES Supernova JS5, where as your device might not run quite right on it. So my advice is to try it, if it works for you, use it. Read the threads, find a ROM that you think has really great support, so if you run into issues you can find help. Zelendel has posted in the Q&A section, threads for some of the more popular ROM's for the newer folks who get stuck

Voltage control App/RC6 and 1400 Kernel

I am currently running RC6 on my captivate with the 1300 kernel. I have no issues using and adjusting voltage control app with this set up. However, as soon as I try SGS kernel flasher and flash 1344 kernel or the 1400 kernel voltage control app begins to force close. I have removed and added back in with the same result. I am very happy with my set up, but would like to benchmark the other two. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
Thank you very much!

I enabled the lag fix, not seeing a big improvement.

I will try to find a new rom because I can't continue with this battery.. draining like water!

1. Another questions, does a rom comes with a kernel or should I need to flash kernel too?

2. What mode does the phone need to be when I connecting it to computer to flash a rom?

3. What are this JXX all about?

4.If I am flashin to stock rom, how will it know to flash to 2.2 or it doesn't matter because the new rom is 2.2?

5. Does flashing to stock rom unroot my phone?

6. Do I need to disable lagfix before flashing new rom? If so how do I do it? just copying the disable-lagfix file back to the Voodo folder?

lol a lot a questions, but I'm sure you'll forgive me :P
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
Ok, here we go.

1. All of the ROM's come with modems and kernels

2. I would be flashing back to stock 2.1 and Master Clear before flashing a new ROM. After that is done, to flash to a custom ROM, you will be in Recovery Mode

3. The J** is, for lack of a better term, the build number. The farther down the alphabet you go the newer the release. The newest at this time is JS5.

4. When you flash to stock you'll use Odin which has stock 2.1 JF6 built in. You can get it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?0w2y31maz8mdom4 If you're going to a custom ROM, I wouldnt mess with the new Stock 2.2

5. Yes

6. I would. All you need to do(for Voodoo lagfix) is, open a File Explorer, go to your Voodoo folder and create a folder named disable-lagfix then reboot the phone
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dupontrocks11:
There is no reason to flash back to stock and master clear. It used to be a bigger deal but now they are all compatable. The only thing you might want to do is clear the dalvik cache in the advanced cmw menu in the recovery mode. I havent done any of this for about a month and after flashing over 10 roms im still seeing no problems.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
Thats probably true for you, but for the beginner it's the safest route to take. It is THE safest way to do it. The chances of things getting messed up are lessened
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
Elad, Check your PM
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
Thank you, you're great.

About the mode I meant USB debugging or something like this.

How do I do this master clear?

About odin and all of this, when I will flash my rom I will use the captivate toolbox (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=944418) so I think it will do it automatically. I want to do everything safe and I think this program is a great way to start.

Especially after I tried to backup my current rom using rom manager and it got me to recovery mode but the ok key button wasn't working, so I had to pull out the battery :S
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
I have never used the Captivate Toolbox, so I can't give you any advice on it

Take a look at you PM, see if that'll work for you

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:
I successfully installed serendipity rom with the help of kangi!

But I have a problem, when I want to enter CWM with rom manager I press "Reboot into Recovery" in the rom manager app and it reboots my phone and get me to the phone recovery (3e) and says that something was faild and I can't use the ok button because it doesn't working.

I have to pull out my battery and then turn the phone on again and then it gets me to CWM.

What is the problem? there's another way?

I don't think that pulling the battery like this is very healthy for my phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshua43214:
The captivate toolbox is an awsome program.

When you use it to flash a rom, it will push clockwork recovery onto the phone for you. just follow the instructions and you will be fine.

A few notes on the toolbox and Odin3,

you must have the samsung drivers installed on your computer, they take forever to install on my computer.

generally speaking, you will not need to use the 3button unless you flash someting like darky's extreme, and his instructions are very clear.

turn on debugging mode in settings/applications/development.

plug in the phone

click "flash to stock," use the one click and follow in the instructions.

let the phone fully reboot and go into sync mode, a minute later, the blue odin box will turn green and say "PASS."

Unplug the phone, turn debugging mode on again

plug in the phone, and when odin sees the phone (window will turn yellow) hit "master clear."

let the phone fully reboot again into sync mode

turn debugging mode on again

click root phone and follow the directions

If you want to open odin3, just click flash to stock with your phone unplugged and click which ever odin3 you want and it will open. This is very usefull if you want to use odin3 without the tool box.

After you flash the ROM, reboot in recovery and if you dig arround in the menus, you should see stuff about lagfix options and lagfix tweaks. make sure lagfix is enabled, if your not sure enable it and reboot into recovery. many roms install with lagfix not enabled, so yuo should always do this. once it changes the file system and reboots into recovery, go into tweaks and enable everything that has an (R) next to it. reboot and enjoy :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
lol pulling the battery isnt the greatest thing to do.. but it shouldn't hurt it as long as its at one of those type of screens. If you were to pull it say.. doing a restore - that would be a fatal no-no.

Um.. if you have ROM MANAGER on your phone already it should have an "update.zip" that has all of the recovery advanced options in it.

Especially with Serendipity if you want to get into Recovery just hit the power button and click on Recovery - it will put you into the CWM recovery mode.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
With a custom ROM installed, most of the newer ones have a Extended power menu, press and hold the power button for a couple of seconds, let it go and it'll give the option for Recovery. Personally, after stock JF6, I dont have any need for ROM Manager anymore

Try to enter Recovery that way first, don't use ROM Manager, if that doesn't work, I would put the "update.zip" back on your phone, and try to re-install it again. Something may have hosed on you
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elad92:

I was wondering about updating to stock 2.2 but it wouldn't make sense, all the Roms here have got it already and they work good and have had all the bugs fixed (well most).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RashaMatt:
FIXED: Voltage Control app force close FC on Paragon RC6 1400 kernel

ISSUE: Voltage Control app FC's on start in Paragon RC6 1400 kernel.

This is related to having previously installed the Paragon 1300 kernel (and the VC app was working there). I forgot to delete the OC/UV settings before flashing the 1400 kernel :cool:

FIXED: These steps may not ALL be necessary, but this is what I did, and it fixed the issue for me:

Uninstall Voltage Control app with TiBu

Delete /etc/init.d/S_volt_scheduler and /etc/init.d/S90scheduler (use Root Explorer or adb shell su)

Boot to CWM recovery

Delete cache and Dalvik cache

Re-flash Paragon RC6 1400 kernel ONLY (not the ROM) - paragon6-1400-100hz-0215-2245-cwm.zip

BTW I'm running Serendipity 6.2 ROM, and it's a beeautiful ride with this kernel :)

[Folio 100 General] Amedee.VanGasse:
I didn't find a separate forum for the Toshiba AC100 (feel free to move), but as I understand it, this is essentially the same hardware as the Toshiba Folio 100, except that it has no touchscreen but a keyboard. Is this correct?

A couple of days ago there was an update from Toshiba: Android 2.2. After upgrade and reboot, I had to enter my PIN code. I was unable to do this, because the field to enter the PIN just doesn't get focus. If I start the AC100 without SIM card, then I don't have to enter a PIN and the AC100 works as expected.

I called Toshiba about this, and they said that I could just enter the PIN code even though the field doesn't have focus. Which simply isn't true.

I did notice a striking pattern when I researched this problem. Other people with the AC100 had no such problems, but I found one other person with exactly the same issue. I have a Belgian keyboard and he has a French keyboard, and these are both AZERTY. Perhaps you don't know this, but to enter a number on an AZERTY you need to press shift, contrary to the more common USA (QWERTY) or German (QWERTZU) keyboard layouts. I told this to Toshiba support but they simply ignored this information. I suppose because their contact center is in Breda and the Dutchies only have a QWERTY model to test...

Can anyone else confirm this problem? Any suggestions on how I'm able to enter a PIN code?
[Folio 100 General] Amedee.VanGasse:
Workaround for PIN problem + AZERTY keyboard

Writing about a problem seems to help. I'm documenting on this forum for any other AC100 users with the same problem.

Workaround for the PIN problem on AZERTY keyboards:

* Your pc keyboard is probably USB. Unplug it and plug it into your AC100.

* Start the AC100

* Enter the PIN on the USB keyboard

* Go to Settings -> Security -> Set up SIM card lock and disable Lock SIM card

* Turn off the AC100

* Unplug the USB keyboard. You no longer need it.

* Turn on the AC100. You no longer need to enter a PIN.

Next problem to tackle: the touchpad no longer works after upgrade to Android 2.2. But that's food for another topic.

Hello there!

Good workaround you've made.

Can you help me? I also have an AC100 and it's 3G modem worked fine with Android 2.1. Now that I've upgraded to 2.2 it doesn't see the built in 3g modem. There are no marks of it in the system. No menu entries for the mobile phone feature. Wonder how I could get it up and running because I've bought this device to surf with my SIM card.

Thanks in forward!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bart-n:
I think it depends on the apps you use. If some app checks your location with gps every time, it drains the battery. But otherwise you just can leave your GPS on I guess.

If you really want to know, try it yourself. Just do a full charge, turn on GPS and see how long the battery lasts. Then do another full charge, turn GPS off and see how long the battery lasts. ;)
