Weird problem that started last night...
In the notification bar I am getting the two arrows in a circle implying something is syncing. It stayed on all night and my battery was down from 100 to 79 with WIFI being almost all of it. I have gone into settings and turned off all syncing including all accounts, background syncing, letting apps sync, etc. and rebooted phone and it comes back within 2 minutes of phone being on. Any ideas of what it could be? I am still trying to get my battery to work well since 2.0 I have been having problems with quicker drain then I want.
Thanks.

So (prolly stupid question) this means that we'll be able to flash 3.5 straight on top of 3.0 w/o going through the ODIN > stock > root > update process all over again?
love the ROM can't wait to try 3.5
Quick question: will 3.5 be using FireBird 2.0 kernel? I think DG's got it out for testing.
PS: Adam you're an inspiration
Thoughts? should be out very soon.
I had noticed it worked on some sites but not others... Didn't give it much thought. Thought it was an issue with the sites themselves.

First of all, I think your doing a great job Adam on Phoenix. I am haveing a problem though that I hope can be fixed. Since you moved to the 2.2.1, I have been losing service every time it gets finished charging. Every morning I have to reboot a few times in a 2 hour period to get it to stabilize. I know this is a known issue with the older batches (mine is 1007) but I was hoping to find a fix or at least a workaround because I really love Phoenix and have only been using your roms since Axura 2.3.

Adam, It's your ROM, do as you will with it. If someone wants to be 850, as I do, then we'll just have to take the extra steps to get there. As long as there is a the step by step directions like there always has been there shouldn't be too many complaints.
People have to remember you're just one person, with a few helpers, and do everything all at once, even though you seem to be trying to and doing a hell of a job at it!
On a side note: Voodoo Sound ready on 3.5? or is the firebird kernel still not support it?

i to washaving huge battery issues but havetracked it down to wifi. it seemstha wifi scanning is the culprate. if i leave home i simply disable wifi and wala good battery. it seems that when no wifi connection is available it scans every 2 secconds non stop. it must be an 2.2.1 bug as it was never present in 2.2. so everyone having huge battery drain simply disable wifi when not in use...

Version 3.5 will be running the JPP modem. I know some do not get great results with that modem in regards to ul/dl speeds but boy do I get great GPS when paired with the GPS cocktail I chose to implement. I tested a fresh install of 3.5(haha) and the first lock took six seconds(in my house) and the first and second tracking sessions were flawless(yes network assistance was turned off
If you're smart enought to flash a ROM, you can flash a modem
Seems like it would make more sense to release a modem that works for EVERYONE then let the few people who want to go through the trouble of getting jpp do the extra work instead of vice versa...some people that flash roms have enough trouble doing that why make it more complicated for them?

just download the modem you want and flash it via CWM. It's and extra step but literally takes very little time. The device builds themselves especially in relation to GPS seem to be very partial to different modems. JK4 and TLJL3 have always worked best with my 1007 build so i will likely end up flashing them but plan to at least play with jpp a bit at least to see effect on gps and battery life.
Just let adam decide. He knows best. Yq sure I.don't like the.fact that the kernal isn't oc, but I inatalled a different kernal. If you want some goofy modem, go build your own rom and don't complain. He puts way too much time into this for almost nithing.

Thanks, Was using 2.0 phoenix or 2.5, downloading 3.0 now! Since these are the same rom, can these be installed no-wipe? Or would it be best to wipe per upgrade? Guess it doesn't matter with titanium backup

I totally agree with this...I'm using the SpeedMod kernel with the JK4 modem and it's absolutely perfect right now...great connectivity and good GPS and the battery is fantastic...I charged it at night disconnected then woke up 7 hrs later with only 2% loss in battery. Just wanted to share my experiences and I love the ROM btw great job adam.
I will be putting jk4 as the default modem. I have no problem flashing jpp for my own use. I do this for you guys so I will make it that much easier.

How to back up your APPS + data (not system data) with Titanium Backup
Go to the market and download and install Titanium Backup
Load up Titanium Backup and allow super user.
Go into Preferences and change Backup Folder name to external_sd/TitaniumBackup (this will save a copy of the files to your external SD card for restoring after flash) then click back and it will reload.
Now go to batch and select backup all user apps. Select the apps you want and hit run batch (top of the screen) once it is finished (you will know as there is a notification in the drop down that it is done) Double check you external sd for the Titanium Backup folder, if it is there then you are good, if not double check the spelling. Make sure it is an underscore between external and sd. ex. external-sd = Wrong..... external_sd = right so it should read external_sd/TitaniumBackup
Ok So you Fully Bricked your Captivate Here is a last ray of hope

Voltage Settings (If Kernal Supports OC/UV)
VoltageApp settings will stick until reboot, but to get them to stay after rebooting, this is what worked for me; You will need Root Explorer for this one
Setup Voltage App like you want
Menu>Apply for Now
Menu>Save as boot settings
Open Root Explorer
Navigate to /etc/init.d
Locate file saved for boot settings (S_volt_scheduler)
Rename "S_volt_scheduler" to "S_98_volt_scheduler"
Save
Reboot
Open VoltageApp to verify settings stuck

Backing Up your NV_data
Thread With more info
The reason its important to back up your NV_data (Non-volitile) is this has your imei, product code, unlock codes and model. This informatioin is not recreated with a JF6 OCD (One click downloader)
Certain Roms write data to your NV_data
(i think it was JPC leak from I9000 that was the first one. it changed everyones product code to I897ZKAKOR)
Axura changes the product code to I959ZKATMB or something like that
The Correct Product code for our Captivate is I897ZKAATT.
If your IMEI says 004999010640000 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 004999010640000 end_of_the_skype_highlighting begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 004999010640000 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 004999010640000 end_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting this is incorrect also and you may find your phone to stop making calls as this is like a debugging or prototype imei
Finally, if your unlock code is FFFFFFFF, you need this repair in order to unlock your code
All of these can be fixed with Helroz's Repair_nv_data.zip Found Here: http://perso.numericable.fr/helroz/P...ir_nv_data.zip
I did not create the software or any of the instructions, THis is credited to Helroz in the vibrant forum (please thank and donate to him) he came up with all of this, Im just sharing knowlage.
this can be found here: Unlocking Tmo Vibrant

Just read the read me first. then the .Doc Make sure you are at Stock JH7 (I didnt try jf6) and root with busy Box (Super One click by CLShort Fuse worked for me)
Then Step 2,3 and 4. Monitor your phone for SU access attempts, it has several and be patient and read what its asking you to look for,
Now if you havent Backed up your NV_data then now is the time. I Use root explorer and just copy the /efs folder to a safe place (I have a copy on my ext. sd card and a backup hard drive)
You can also Use SGS tools (not SGS tool Box) to do a product code check. This also copies all of the pertenant NV_Data files to a folder on your internal SD card. you can use these also if you want.
Flashing JPP Modem to enable 850
The only guaranteed method for enabling 850 on jpp that is proven to work every time is to:
Flash stock using odin
Flash jg8 modem
Flash rom with jpp modem
Hopping around to other modems and back to jpp after this will kill 850 as well.
For some this is not an issue as they are in areas where 850 is not utilized by AT&T but for others jpp will cause headaches if they try using it without following these steps.
Themes and Graphics
Disable Vodoo before flashing themes like blackfroyo with recovery. (if Running vodoo)
How to change Boot Animation.
1.Find the animation that you want (most be compatible with captivate)
2.Copy bootanimation.zip (it must be named this) with a file explorer that gets you to system files ex. Root explorer to system/media
3.Reboot

Email FC after changing email Fix
Thanks to Newter55 for the find
Download the libcamera.so from here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11343737/libcamera.so
Use root explorer or whatever method you prefer and make a backup copy of /system/lib/libcamera.so just in case you need to get it back.
Copy the libcamera.so you downloaded from above link over the existing one in /system/lib.
Delete or rename the existing email.apk in /system/app to test that this fix works.
Reboot phone.
Open Barcode Scanner and enjoy the fact that it no longer force closes.
This will allow people to use whatever email.apk they prefer...or if they are like me they can get rid of the apk altogether.

Just glad I could help. If you need the tracking number for it I can send it to you
