Runs fine on stock rom. 2.1

It runs great on the leaked Foyo ROM as well. Can you check to make sure it is on your internal SD? I tried to run the files from my external SD, and went into boot cycles. Hope that helps.

Works great for me on Cognition 2.3b7 I have the bought version and the early version that was leaked a couple of weeks ago, 1.0.4 and they both run without an issue.

Im running darky V6 with setirons kernel, and it just hits the splash screen, the music plays, one out of every 5 times I can get to car select and it crashes. I dont get a FC message or anything. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling also, and restarting the phone. The data it downloads is on my internal sd and everything. I have no idea what the issue is.

I'm with stock XXJPY and this crap is closing... I think we just were stoled...

Mine works just fine on perception 5, no lags, no fc's, just fun

How odd... I wonder what the issue is. I mean it starts up, then just exits. Hmmm....

same here
same issues here with 2.2.1 based roms. i could play once running Cronus.

Grab somewhere APK from Galaxy Tab - it's working for me perfectly
Beware: 120mb size...

Im wondering if it has something to do with the market. As in, because we are using the different baseband version, the market is trying to give us the copy made for snapdragon chips.
I guess to confirm this, what version of nfs shift do you all have? I think in my many wasted google searches I saw different versions for the phones that use the snapdragon chips.

It's not a market issue... It's a NFS game issue - version 1.0.56 worked, but .58 not

So I dont know if anyone was able to fix this, but I did find a version for the tab and its working great now. I can't share it on here, because I know its warez or whatever it's called, but mine works great now. I will add that I paid for the game, just had to find a copy that actually worked.

mine works fine and im running firebird 2.2 no problems whatso ever

I bought it during the sale and haven't ever gotten to play it either. I put a support request into EA, but 2 weeks later, I got a canned response (what's you phone, OS version, etc.... info that as already provided). I'm disappointed, since this was my first and so far only market purchase... I can confirm that it bombs on Xcal's and speedmod kernels, does anyone have it working with a newish rom (2.2.1)? If so, what kernel and game build are you running??

Mine works fine on phoenix, never have had a fc on this game.

What version of NFS are you using? I've got 1.5.7, someone mentioned 1.5.6 working, is that what you have?

[Q] 2.2.1 hinders adobe flash?

At 2.2 [SuperOneClick with OCLF] my phone could play all flash content (in desktop client mode) and even struggle to play 720p flash media although this was fairly jerky.
Since upgrading to 2.2.1 Galaxy S wont play any regular flash content unless specifically designed for mobile it seems. Tried many things to put this right in 2.2.1 but to no success. Even went back to factory defaults.
I'm thinking of going back to 2.2 but would like to know if anyone else has had the same problem at 2.2.1?
I have been able to play flash whenever needed. I have had my browser set so that it runs flash upon demand. I don't know if that had made a difference.
Any specific site your flash failed on?

Have you updated flash player .

iplayer (desktop agent) and 4od play very slowly, unwatchable.
iplayer in mobile view works fine but the quality is relatively poor.
When everything used to work well, flash 'on demand' or 'always on' made no difference. I've also tried different versions of flash 10.1, some work better thhan others but all inferior (by a long way) to before froyo 2.2.1 update
Glad to hear yours is working well. I've since istalled Darky's rom 7.7 and still no dice for me. strange as I've wiped everything and done fresh install.
depending on whether others have got flash media to play well on 2.2.1 then I'll thinking of downgrading to 2.2
Let me know please
So nobody else is having problems with Adobe Flash on 2.2.1
It's just me?
Hi there, my wife and I both have galaxy s, on 2.2.1. both can watch bbciplayer over wifi ok, and we could watch 4od ok, but we think that it was ok at 2.2. and thinking the same as you that maybe the update to 2.2.1 has caused problems with flash.
We have tried all sorts of things.
As you have wiped everything already are you going to try going back to 2.2?
If so how do you do that, any idea?
Let us know how you get on, if we find any other fix we will let you know
iplayer (desktop agent) and 4od play very slowly, unwatchable.
Suggest BBC iplayer forum as possible source of help .

Need for Speed Shift starts then shortly goes back to home screen...anyone else?

Hi!
I got NFS shift from the Market but unfortunately it starts and shows the intro for example and sometimes I even make it to the car selection but then it will just crash back to the Home Screen with no errors.
I tried uninstalling and deleting data folders but that did not help.
I had the same problem with Darky's Rom using JPY, but on Pheonix which I think uses a Vibrant base, games works wonderful and have had no problems with it. There must be something to that, might be the 2.2 vs. 2.2.1.
Ah that sucks...gonna try a different JPY but you might be right.
Same issue. on Cezars SE Rom. I wonder if it has something to do with the Android ID.
Not sure but since I paid for the game already, I installed the game from the Market then downloaded the SD content from one of "those" sites and it runs fine so something is wrong with the files it downloads for the Galaxy S when you let it do it on its own...weird.
same here on Cezar's SE base. Sad face. :C The sims 3 does this too...

Perception Q&A

Hey Guys I put together a Q&A thread for this rom to prevent tons of new threads about rom Spicific questions from new users.. Please feel free to post any questions here.
As Aslways there is no Flaming, name calling or the such.
No question is too noobish, But please look for your answer first.
Now for the info needed to help. In your post make sure to included the version of the rom you are using, modem, kernel, ext...
Also please give it some time for your question to be answered.
is there an easy way to get the rotary lock screen on perception?
Has anyone else had trouble getting FB contacts to sync with their phonebook? I've been trying non-stop for two days now, with full bars and 3G. Anything i could try that might work? I know its possible because i've flashed this same rom before, but its not working this time
Romerception Build 10.3
Kernel: rGB-v.4-Voodoo # 10

I have perception 10.1 and its worked great. Except for the fact that yesterday for the first time I tried to play mp3's on it and they wont play. The built in music player tells me it doesnt support this file type. WTF?? Is there a missing codec from the android system or is the music player just messed up?
My only question about Perception: DG, will you please resurrect this ROM?

Doesn't seem to be working with perception 10.3. I'm trying to use odin to flash back to 2.1 with no luck. I know this rom is discontinued but if anyone has any advice that would be great. Thanks in advance
I've been reading and romming since Nov. 2010, but not alot of posting.
I have run mostly Design Gears roms. Currently trying Cog4.3 with Overstock kernel because of sleep death. I'm testing Cog for a friend.
I still like Perception better and prob will go back, but the last Firebird Kernel had a bug that wont allow the pc to access the external SDcard. Not really a problem for me, my work around is to use other software to access home network via wifi to move music files on to the external SD.
My question; is there another kernel that works well with perception?
I know DG has dicontinued Perception, is it also true for the FireBird kernel?
The thing I love about Perception is it has the best of everything. HSUPA, Bluetooth worked, Wired headphones worked.
Noteerception 10.4 had Firebird .9, I believe. It had a bug that killed the mic on wired headset during phone calls. Firebird 1.0 fixed the mic bug but has the Ext SD card bug.
I was told to post this here. It was posted in General but now closed.

And then there is the JS5 based perception that never saw the light of XDA Now that was a beaut, but as every other release of perception my keyboard won't vibrate.
How do you OC/UV in perception GB?
With VC not working in GB, I don't know how to OC/UV.
Please post link to instructions if they are available.
I don't mind going into the CPU clock speed files, just want to be sure I change the right files.
Thanks
In the jvb rom, do we have to flash back to stock and re odin the bootloaders all over again or can we just flash p10.1on top of the other kernel (which happens to be continuum)? Thanks.
Perception II Beta Phone goes blank after dialing
Any Idea why I am getting blank screen after dialing from dial pad but not when I choose contacts?
How do you toggle 2G/3G
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
It seems when using dial pad you get back the screen if you move the phone (which activates the sensor). It seems that is how it is built in. No buttons work simulate movement as putting phone to ear and then back

Pandora issues with Paragon RC5

Phone is my gf's so it might take me a few days to get you a logcat.
Pandora will play a few songs and then skip or just stop for no reason. Stock ROM and Cog2.3 had no issues. Everything else seems cool.
We restored the app from Titanium, so I cleared data in apps settings, uninstalled it, wiped cache and dalvik in recovery, then rebooted and reinstalled Pandora from the market. No change.
Any thoughts?
Ive had this same prob on several diff roms. I dont think its a rom problem.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
The issue of songs stopping at random is a known problem and Pandora has been trying to fix it. They released an update a few weeks ago that seems to have fixed it for some and made it worse for others. Its not a problem with Paragon as I had the same problem running Phoenix.
That being said, I think the problem is made worse depending on the modem thats used, which is why some people have the problem and others dont - but this is just my guess based on observation. I've been listening to Pandora for a number of hours on the official froyo release from AT&T and it has yet to skip or stop. Maybe coincidence that I haven't had the problem yet but it's looking good so far.

Interesting ... I suspected it was modem related. What's weird is no issues on Cog or stock. Maybe a timing coincidence?
Maybe we'll try out the official froyo next. When did that drop? Ota or kies?

I am running Paragon RC6 and it on rare occasion does the same thing to me. BUT when I was running stock 2.1 it also did the same thing. As said, Pandora is trying to fix the issue....
If you are still having this issue, update Pandora. They released version 1.5.5 which addresses these problems. I've been running it for a few days with no issues.

Thanks, we updated to RC6 and the Pandora problem went away but was replaced by "refreshing sim data" constantly. Very obnoxious.
Yesterday I picked her up an Inspire 4G so the Cappy is currently running oem 2.2 and on CL waiting patiently for a new home.

[Q] Verizon Galaxy Tab/Flashing a ROM

Hi, i have a Verizon Galaxy tab. I was interested in flashing a new ROM. Does anyone know if the tab has a Sim card? and which is a good ROM? Has anyone successfully flashed a ROM where everything worked? I use my tab in the car and need 3g, gps etc. But im itching to flash a kernel and a new ROM. Anyone have any advise? looks like most of them are for GSM and not CDMA. Please Help!
The Verizon (and Sprint) SGT does not have a SIM card as they are CDMA devices.
There is a small handful of ROMs available however at first it was pain getting started flashing the CDMA SGTs I've messed with.
Personally, I like oldmacnut's ROMs.
However, I'm currently running KhasMek's kernel and the stock ROM (just until oldmacnut finishes his GB port) - Also, running LauncherPro to hide that awful touchwiz interface and Dolphin Browser HD (for better browsing) - This has made the SGT loads better for me.
My advise to anyone looking to flash ROMs (even as unlikely as it is) if you're note 100% okay with the possibility of a brick, then don't flash. Personally, I've never encountered a bad flash I couldn't recover, but your milage may vary.
Thanks Addictive,
I am also waiting for stable GB roms for my VZ Tab. But I need to flash a nice kernel and a ROM. Even though the rooted tab runs nice with some tweaks......such as launcher Pro. I never used Dolphin HD. Ive always used Miren Browser since its lightweight and real quick for me BUT i will def give Dolphin a try. I might follow your footsteps and flash KhasMek's kernel and wait for Gingy. Have you noticed any significant differences as far as performance with this kernel?
The kernel is a touch buggy, but for me the performance boost was worth it. Lagfix, ext4 conversion and over clock were too good to pass up.
Using SetCPU to bump up on demand to 1.4GHz helps a bit when I push the tab (google music streaming in the background, navigation running in the background, bluetooth paired to car for audio, a friend browsing the web .... simultaneously) - Doing that stock made it angry, audio would skip and UI would lag, now its nearly perfect.
Also, I use Refresh for Android to reboot the tab automatically at 4:30 AM everyday. This alone has helped with stability/performance. Recently though, it has stopped automatically rebooting the SGT. I got the app because I was too lazy to setup a cron job to do it for me heh.
Hmmm well I have the ext 4 conversion (using OCLF) and that definitely made it much snappier but mine is running stock as far as cpu goes. I haven't experimented with overclocking...not sure if I want to risk damaging mine. But it did spike my interest since I have the same setup and have a car mount for mine. So I stream music and goole map it along with other goodies (like trapster) and sometimes it stutters. Would be cool to see how much faster it would go. And yeah rebooting always helps lol so I might flash that kernel friday. Have you tried any other ones?
