[ROM]Cognition v2.3b8

[wjcaptivate]

Hello everyone. This is my first android phone and the first time doing any of this. So far I've only used the one click ODIN for the first leak froyo and then the one click ODIN for Cog 2.2 B9.1.3. Was wondering if I lost my android id in the process? Reading the change log there was no mention of same android id. Can someone confirm if I need to get back to stock to get the id? Thanks everyone.

Thanks DG!

Everything running smooth on 2.3b3

I have seen none of problems that are being described in prior pages. As a matter of fact Ive been using COG/s for a couple of months now and have yet to have an issue.

FWIW people, I always use the CWR method.

If you want your ID just go back to stock and use the Android ID app from the market

Something in the Music Player or the audio subsystem has changed with JJ4. The music player's equalizer doesn't work and none of the enhancements work. Also, browsing and general inertial scrolling seems more jittery than 2.2. But I have to say that aside from those two minor issues... it seems overall more snappy. The continual updates and your general attention to detail is great... You've definitely helped me, so ima donate something

DG FTW!!

I tried Music Player and everything works. No jittery scrolling either.

Okay, I have a couple of question... Nothing important, but just for the sake of my curiosity.

1. I have been reading some info here & there regarding the Android ID...
What is this used for? When/Why would i need to change the id using the app?

2. I was reading that when Voodoo is first enabled, i would hear a voice at the first boot... I have disabled it / enabled it a few times so far, and i have not yet heard any voice... But the boot does lag at the AT&T screen, which tells me it seems to be converting properly... Is there anyway i can tell for sure if voodoo is enabled? Is there a way i can check if the filesystem is ext4?

3. What is the differences between flashing using Odin V.S. Rom Manager (CWR) V.S. the new Heimdall?
Which one is safer? Faster? More Stable? Etc.?



I am currently running 2.3b3 with no problems as of yet!
Thank you DG! For your great work!

Flashed .. all seems smooth so far. The only thing I see is battery battery battery. Justs seems to be draining very fast.

When in doubt, save yourself the headache and disable the lagfix.

ALWAYS disable Lag-Fix remove your SIM and SD card.... hows that? LOL

Many don't and don't have issues. We are flashing ROMs The most problematic thing one can do on any computing device and something that can go awry very quickly with not much reason....Why give it any?

ONLY If the DEVELOPER; DG says you don't have to do any of these things you might be safe....But I would still take the precautions that many have been taking since page one. It doesn't hurt anything to do so and may save some grief of wiping out the SIM (which happened to me) or the ext SD card which many have complained of.

For those who don't do this...I will bet they have been around long enough to know how to bring back a seemingly bricked phone to life. I learned early before flashing a single ROM how to use adb to get into Recovery or Download modes and have need that because I had two devices that could not do it on their own and I did not want to send them back.

This is a long thread and late comers have a lot to read but it is well worth it.....One of the mistakes made was not reading enough and getting sidetracked in the middle of a thread and doing something wrong before i read the "correction" Cost me a SIM card.

Now I cannot wait for the next ROMS and I never had an issue with them. Only with the peripheral Cards.

and do send DG some beer money...this cannot be easy to keep up with.

Okay, I just started using Cognition only a couple of days ago, and even i'm already getting tired of all the "do i have to disable lagfix" questions...

The short answer to this is "Yes! You Do!"

So unless you wanna risk the chance of messing up your phone, then disable it! its really super easy to disable! Just create a empty folder and reboot!

Save yourself a headache and disable it!

From what I read yes you do....but you can download Android ID changer and create a new one. I know the procedure for extracting the original ID is in this thread somewhere. If I ever get back to stock I will try to get mine. but I have not had any issues creating a new one.

Upgraded from 2.3b2 to 2.3b3 using ODIN and had a ton of FCs. Reverted back to JI6 and then upgrade using ODIN again 2.3b3 having formatted everything on the both SD cards. My home button wouldn't work. Flashed again the cycle again. Same problem. I'm going back to 2.3b2 though the battery life on that was just okay. Nothing like 2.2b7.

The speed on 2.3b2 is phenomenal.

The simplest way if you already have a CWR backup, adb and busybox grep:

adb shell /system/xbin/grep android_id /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-11-01.19.59.56/datadata.img

SO far 2.2b3 is indeed better than previous versions
However
Battery life is the same or better
GPS takes a while to initially lock as usual.. (seems to get better over time)
There is still very little lag here and there but still fast. (When SD scanner is running)

Loaded a few days ago from ROM Manager and CW over 2.2b2 installed APPs from TiBu with app data. No issues.

Had the force closathon coming from beta6 after flashing in cwm. Reflashed in cwm, also doing a clear data and clear cache while in the recovery menu. Now totally stable.

LOL ...beautiful link....

Correct me if I am wrong I we already burned a ROM or changed the ID that will opnly reveal Cogs or our own ID.

So you have to be in stock mode.....But if someone never made a stock back up their original ID is lost forever?

 

[used2hvatreo]

Flash the latest cog last night, and have determined the following. my battery life == crap and my bluetooth wont connect, but the rom is sweet and im sure there is battery conditioning stuff i should do before blaming DG and the rom for all my probs

I haven't been able to find anything that says it is stored on the phone hardware somewhere, so as far as I know settings.db is the only place it's found. I'd like to proven wrong, but until then you need a backup of your old ROM.

Did you do a backup of your stock through clockwork

Hey everyone I need some help. After flashing to V2.3b3, I forgot to get my original Device ID. So, I try to get my phone back to stock 2.1 with the Odin One-Click, but I keep getting stuck at "Get PIT for mapping..."

I had it like that for about 3 hours (I dozed off).

I don't get anything off my phone and I don't have any issues getting into download mode. All I keep getting with this One-click and even the One-click for the froyo leak is "Get PIT for mapping..."
