Since i couldn't find any similar thread, here is my problem:
I used every Cognition ROM, since SRE 1.3.1c to Beta7, but always noticed that the SMS order was wrong.
I'd a 5-6 minutes difference between sent and received sms. So, my sent messages were located in the bottom, and the received in the top, making them difficult to read..
Now, i'm using Shep's ROM with xcaliburinhand Kernel, and i noticed that my SMS are place in order now! No timming issue!
But.. With Cognition Beta7 my battery lasted 25-40 hours!!
And, with Shep's ROM, only last 10!
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
i can't even send a sms/mms at all at cog 2.2 beta7....

I am not sure What is going on with both of your issues, I have been using Cog on and off sense SRE started and have never had those issues, SMS ordering was never an issue and have not had trouble sending out mms. Are you guys useing TBU to restore settings?
Same here. I am on cog6 with no sms or mms issues.
My procedure is always the same:
- Stock with odin JF6
- Root
- Flash any ROM with Clockwork Recovery Mode
I never used any Backup (Except Google's contacts, GMail and Calendar). I never trusted any settings backup..
I'll try Cog B7 with xcaliburinhand's kernel, and others combinations..
But i really want to know if it's a Modem, Kernel or ROM issue, 'cause if it's a Modem fw issue, i could flash anything, and then, flash the Working (no issue) modem over.. Just to be prepared..
Thanks!
I think it's an issue with the Carrier timestamps. If you install Handcent and look at your messages, you'll see they will be put in order. I had the same thing happen to me a day or so after I installed 2.2, but never had it happen on 2.1

I noticed that there is one diff in how we flash a new rom
Odin one click
Master clear with odin one click
Root
Rom manager flash
you might want to back up with Titanium back up you user apps as the master clear will wipe the device. might be something left over from a stock flash that may mess you up. but that is just my 2 cents

Yep, it's a Carrier issue (and it get worst sending SMS between different carriers!) But, i had this issue in Stock Eclair, SRE Eclair, Cog Eclair and Cog Froyo.. It only gets fixed with Shep's ROM, that's the weird thing

Yes, i do the Master Clear too.. Also Dalvik, Cache, Battery and Data wipe from Clockwork..
Well.. Testing, after Back to Stock JF6, Master Clear, Data, Battery, Dalvik and Cache Wipe:
- Cognition 2.2 Beta7 > SMS timming issue
- Cognition 2.2 Beta7 + xcaliburinhand's Reoriented 2.0.1 Kernel > SMS timming issue
- Cognition 2.2 Beta7 + xcaliburinhand's Reoriented 2.0.1 Kernel + JH2 Modem > SMS timming issue
- Shep's Stock ROM + xcaliburinhand's Reoriented 2.0.1 Kernel > SMS timmng fixed
So, the only thing that fix this problem is the Shep's Stock ROM..

That's the reason I noticed it. I was texting my ex girlfriend who uses Sprint, my cousin on Verizon, one of my girl friends on T-Mobile, and my best friend on AT&T. Everyone was messed up except my best friend. Or maybe its cause the other three are female. Who knows. I'd place a wager on the Carriers just to be safe and not get yelled at. :-D

Hmm..
I had the MMS/SMS timing bug with Cog's 2.1.6 build.
I'm on Cog's 2.2.6 Froyo and haven't experienced any issues.
And my txts are all over the place... my brother who is on Sprint, a buddy in town on T-Mobile, and my sister-in-law who is on Verizon on a Kansas phone # (and I'm in Colorado).
I dunno.. seems to be pretty random.
Last load was Odin back to stock.
Then used ROM Manager to update to Cog's 2.2 build.
Hey all. So after 1 month without my phone, I finally got it back from Bell. It's good to have it back!! Before my internal memory died, I was running Docs Rom, and I was actually quite happy with it. Now that the phone is back, it has the stock firmware on it. Im debating if I want to put on Hardcore, or update to the new 2.2 bell and call it a day.
Are we seeing a good reason to use Hardcore's Kernel vs the Stock JL2 Rom?
For those I9000m users who had their phone die, did you mod again, or stay stock?!?
I got mine back with JK4 on it, so I updated it to JL2 right away via Kies. I'm running Hardcore's SpeedMod K12L kernel with the /data lagfix enabled for the last few days without any issue.
Thats exactly what I was planning.
Hope it works out! Thanks for the feedback, makes me feel not so crazy for hopping back into modding after losing my phone for a month!
Whats the worst thing thats gonna happen you get a new phone and $100 credit to your account ? Happy Flashing ;p.
Upgrade to JL2. Apparently fixes the SD card issue, and it's quite fast.
Been running a custom JL2 ROM for a few days and it's great; I'm quite impressed. I was running a custom JPY ROM on a previous phone before it died.
I'm not sure what the source of the problem is, but WiFi is slower than 3g and doesn't maintain a stable connection even though I'm 50 feet from the router. I have Cog v3.04 and Firebird Kernal v2.05. I just installed the KP1 modem, but I had these issues before that. Any suggestions?
run a speedtest.net on your pc. Make sure your getting decent bandwidth.
do you have cable or DSL?
What speed?
also.
delete network
reboot router/modem
restart phone
re add network
&& possibly try changing wireless frequency on router, maybe there is a lot of interfearence or something.
I've had something similar with the latest Cognition release (cog kernel and modem as well). My Wifi connects and works for webpages but won't download apps from the market or other files. It uploads files to dropbox fine. Any help is appreciated. And I'm getting ready to flash the kernel to SpeedMod and use a i9000 modem to see if it's any better.
dont you have to run a radio thats consistent with the kernal/rom? i thought to run i9000 id need a rom/kernal based on the i9000 firmware...
I'm running Cog 3.04, SpeedMod K12r – 500hz (SpeedMod installed with Odin is the only installation that does not quickly drain battery for me), and JL3 modem. Everything is working great and fantastic battery life!
I'm also playing around with Cog 3.04 at the moment with this issue -- no wifi internet. No, it's not the router, there are multiple LANs around in my area and I was connecting and using them just fine on stock Froyo + Captivate Voodoo + JI6 modem. It's definitely something that came up after installing Cog.
I think the general rule of thumb says that you shouldn't mix and match, but so far, the JI6 and JJ4 modems have not given me any Wifi connection (the phone says it will connect, but no internet services work).
Meanwhile the JK4 modem for I9000 works, it will connect to LANs and let me browse to pages, although it's a little slow.
As of this typing I *just* tried out JL3, but the result is no good. I can load Google.com and nothing else.
I'm wary of trying the XXJP* modems due to changing bands (I'm no expert) but if nothing else works (or JK4 breaks) then it'll be on the table.
Is there anything else we can change aside from modems and kernels? I like how fast Cog is but if I can't get Wifi then I have to go back to stock Froyo.
Edit: Just tried out the Firebird 2 kernel. Wifi with the JI6 modem is back! Albeit slow. Battery life is also depleting VERY quickly. JJ4, JL3 still no good; JK4 works and is very fast, however internet only works with one wireless network, which happens to be unencrypted. Now going back to the original Cog 3.04 kernel, see if I can get any more data.
ive recently installed the cog 3.04 rom on mine.. currently deployed and can only use it with the wifi and so far, have not really noticed any issues.. i can download from the market and access the wifi's as needed.. only thing is sometimes it will disconnect when the phone locks, but when i unlock, it logs back on.. but that is about it for me.. so far loving it..still too new at the phone to really know much though
Ok, I think I may have found what I did wrong.
I used Titanium Backup to backup ALL of my system data from the leaked Froyo install, and restored it to the Cog install once it finished. I just re-flashed Cog to my phone (from leaked JI6 Froyo) WITHOUT restoring system data -- I only restored user apps and user app data this time. Tentatively, I seem to have Wifi working on all available LANs! Haven't changed a thing from the Cog install (using the modem that came with it, etc.) and all seems to be good.
Sad thing is, I think DG's page on Cog 3.04 specifically mentioned we shouldn't restore all system data after flashing. So for anyone else having Wifi troubles, you might want to make sure you didn't restore everything from your old ROM.
yeh.. i believe they changed it to do the restore missing apps and data instead of restore all apps and data... the video linked on their to show how to flash cog 3 has the guy telling you to restore all but once he made the video, he went in and put a splash on the screen for a correction to only do the missing apps + data and not restore all as it is known to cause issues
Actually, a correction on my part: Wifi's dead again. Seems to work for a few minutes at a time. Not sure what to do, going back to normal Froyo for a spell then...
I too am having issues with wifi on Cognition v3.04, I did not restore any data from my previous ROM.
I simply copied the rom (.zip) to my internal SD and used Clockwork rom manager to reboot and install from sd card. The wifi seems to be intermittent.
I will be following this thread to see if there is a fix.
Cognition 3.04 ROM and the firebird kernel
i would like 2 use this combo but i read they drain batt like crazy.
would like 2 know if anyone has found a combo that fixs this.
I have been running the cognition 3.04 rom for a few days, every thing works perfect with flash from stock 2.1. btw great rom i love it thanks for this rom.
Cognition 3.04 ROM stock kernel
hopeing for firebird read nothing but great things about it.
Edit: Nevermind, wifi eventually broke again.
This took several tries, but the procedure that finally let it work for about 12 hours follows.
I flashed back to JF6, used Odin to Master Clear, then installed ROM Manager from market. When flashing CWM, the phone went into 2e recovery of course, so I hit "reinstall packages" to flash CWM, but then it didn't update into CWM so I hit "reinstall packages" again, which gave me CWM recovery proper. Then reboot the phone, transfer the Cognition ZIP from computer to phone, then go into ROM Manager, and hit "Install ROM from SD Card".
I did NOT backup the stock JF6 rom, I DID wipe data and cache. Once the ROM was successfully flashed and rebooted, I checked Wifi -- nope, no good, wouldn't connect to any secured networks. It would connect and be able to use the one local unsecured network, but that was it. I went and retrieved a few Captivate-compatible kernels out of my computer:
Speedmod K12T
Firebird 2
supercurio's JJ4 Stock+Voodoo kernel
Rebooted into recovery, flashed over the Cog stock kernel WITHOUT converting the datasystem back to RFS (I left everything on EXT4 including /system), rebooted back into recovery, then wiped Dalvik cache and then wiped battery stats for good measure. Then rebooted normally.
Firebird did not give me the wifi result I wanted, I don't know why; Speedmod and supercurio's JJ4 Voodoo both fixed my wifi issue. Page loading is very snappy, the phone connects to and is able to use all the secured networks it sees and the only "issue" remaining is that it sucks up quite a bit of juice whenever it's connected to wifi. I don't know if this is the Cognition ROM or the JL1 modem causing it, but it's my only remaining quibble.

Now it's been a couple more hours and I am sad to report that the secured networks are once again unreachable on the JL1 modem, or any other that I have as far as I know. *Sigh* back to trying more things.
Edit 2: I have tried the "rm bcm_supp.conf" method of wiping wifi stats for a clean start, tried it on the stock Cog 3.04 kernel as well as the supercurio kernel. Doesn't fix the issue.
Edit 3: I dunno guys. I just did a fresh install again:
Flash back to JF6 Stock
Master Clear using Odin
One-click root
Move Cog 3.04 ZIP file to internal SD
Install ROM Manager
Flash CWM Recovery
"Reinstall packages"
"Reinstall packages"
In CWM recovery mode now, "install .zip from sdcard"
Choose the Cog 3.04 ZIP, install
Wipe Dalvik Cache, wipe battery stats
Boot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now I can connect to all the unsecured networks and ONE secured network. I'm willing to write off the other secured network that I can't connect to because it wasn't compatible with the stock 2.1 Eclair ROM either (i.e. some protocol is probably in error). Nonetheless, the connection seems very fragile and I wouldn't be surprised if I rebooted and suddenly lost the capability to connect to that one secured network. *Shrug*
I've found a robust, working workaround!
I think that something about flashing kernels via Clockworkmod Recovery may be what's breaking wifi -- I have no idea why, but I flashed SpeedMod K13A via CWM and I couldn't connect to anything, then immediately afterwards flashed the same K13A, but via Odin, and absolutely everything works! The cause may be a particular version of CWM, it could be that the CWM and Odin versions of kernels are different, I don't know jack about the innards of software. But if you're having Wifi troubles try flashing a kernel via Odin, then flash (by whatever means, I still use CWM) a compatible modem, and see if it works.
Right now, I have Cog 3.04 running with SpeedMod K13A and the JL2 modem -- very robust and quick connection, data flows fairly quickly as well (10Mbps down/up). Have tried several different I9000 modems since then and they all work. JL2, KP1, JP5, JL3, JK4 are the ones I have in my "stash", every single one works so I've pretty much ruled out the modem question.
Hope you guys can also get your Wifi fixed! As a starting point I'd definitely try SpeedMod (via Odin) + JL2, the two of them work very well together and it gives me the best Wifi, GPS, voice quality, smoothness and battery life out of all the combos I've tried so far.
Thanks color0, I am going to try this right now. Flashed to Cog 3.04 yesterday and my Wifi has been sporadic at best.
EDIT: Well I flashed the K13A speed mod using ODIN and I still have issues with my Apple Time Machine Router. It connects fine but I receive no data (always worked great in the past). The connection to my other router seems to be working ok though, let's see if it lasts.
I could not install the JL2 modem as I am on a SGH-i897 and I understand that is a I9000 modem.

Having same problems as you R.
Been pulling my hair out and flashing my ass off.
Only way I can get wifi to work is going back to stock.
Will try your work around and C if that helps
Thanks !
At work, we have 2 wifi networks : one is open, the other uses PEAP and MSCHAPV2 (?)
On my brand new (unflashed) Captivate I could connect to either one.
I flashed Cognition 3.04 and now I can connect to the open network, but not the PEAP secured one. There is an endless loop of scanning-> connecting -> disconnected, and the network appears as "disabled" after several attempts.
Unfortunately the open network has limitations, and requires a manual login.
I hope someone finds a fix, as I really like Cognition 3.04 so far.
I tried backdating the dhcpcd as mentioned in one of the developer threads, as well as re-booting, but that didn't help.

Mine is also an SGH-I897. The SpeedMod K13A, however, is a I9000-based kernel, so you SHOULD actually use an I9000 modem to pair with it. JL2 is one of the best ones available, JK4 is also tried-and-proven, but drains battery. KP1 works very fast but voice quality drops.
JS22, Tzabka, yep, this is the exact same problem for all three of our Captivates. I can't guarantee there isn't something else that might break Wifi for you guys, but I can report what is working for me now. Best of luck! Once we at least have Wifi we can start working on other things like voice quality and battery life (currently trying out BVJJPD, I've heard some great things about its power consumption).
OH OK great. Could you point me in the right direction for installing the JL2 modem, never installed a modem before. Can I just use Odin3?
Thanks!!!
dont know what happened I installed serendipity 5.7 and speedmod then noticed the problem after i put a new modem to fix bluetooth i noticed later that I wasnt getting calls. I could see them come in for about 1 sec then it looked like a force close happened. i have since tried new modems now im on UGJK3 as well as switched to firebird. any help is greatly appreciated and as this is my first post i hope i placed it right thanks ahead of time
ok i used odin to go back to stock seems to be seredipity odd since it worked at first o well back to tweeking some more
just in case this happens to someone else i believe the issue comes from titanium backup restoring user data that shouldn't be there. after rereinstalling serendipity i used just the app recovery part of titanium and it works fine now oddly it sent the kernal back to speedmod rather than firebird

Bluetooth will never work properly when combining a Captivate-base ROM (like Cognition) with an i9000-base kernel (like speedmod). You'll have to switch to a different ROM to get bluetooth voice with that kernel.
Stock Cognition modem is JL1.

So I've been doing research into fixing my bluetooth voice calling static issue. I'm running stock Rogers 2.2 on my I896 Captivate from Rogers. I've installed the latest speedmod kernel. As a result of some posts which claimed I needed to match my modem to my kernel I've tried a number of different modems in attempts to get rid of the static yet had no luck.
Is what this user posted above true, there is no combination of modem + speedmodkernel + stock rogers rom, that will fix the bluetooth voice static issue?
After each modem attempt I deleted my bluetooth profile on my phone and reconnected and still no luck. One user mentioned having to do a system reset on my phone after each modem as just deleting the bluetooth profile is not enough...can anyone confirm that? And what kind of reset would that be, key sequence?
Thanks so very much for any information!!!

I was experiencing same kind of what you are experiencing now. Seems to be incompatibility issue while i'm on stock froyo and loaded speedmod kernel static is horrible (bluetooth) and during a call the other line have a hard time to understand what I have said. Tried clearing dalvik cache, factory reset, etc. only solution I had was to install a custom rom with speedmod kernel on it as the dev already tweaked it to be more compatible with the rom. So many roms out there it's up to you to choose. Once you have tried you may never think of going back to stock.

Well...that's the thing...I've tried pretty much all the popular roms and liked a few, but once rogers released 2.2 I flashed back to stock and use manual addons like speedmod/bln/lagfix/themes/batteryicon/etc. I feel I have more control this way and there seem to be less mysterious 'bugs' then when using cooked roms.
I've been keeping my eyes peeled for a fancy kernel based on the rogers stock kernel, but nothing has come about yet....
So at this point I'm still not clear if this is even possible, has anyone achieved running stock rogers 2.2 with a custom kernel and found some modem that doesn't cause an earfull of bluetooth static?
Thanks!
Cheers!
Ciao!

Try running the JK4 modem with the Speedmod Kernel. That always seemed to work out for me.
I am in the same boat ! Stock Froyo on I896 Rogers. I installed SpeedMod and got noisy bluetooth. Read a lot in here and flashed JK4 modem, still no go...
Everything is doing great ! SpeedMod with LagFix enabled is amazing ! But i need my bluetooth !!
Any Help would be great !!!
Thanks.
I tried and tried and eventually had to go on a long road trip and really wanted bluetooth to work...so I flashed CM7 and it's super nice and bluetooth works great! The only loss, IN MY OPINION, is that at the moment BLN is not included/working and only a couple people developing 3rd party kernels are looking into getting BLN back into a CM7 kernel.
CM7 is by default ext4 (so lagfixed out of the box!). And there are kernels for Voodoo sound/video/oc/uv.....just not BLN right now :/
So if you dont need BLN notifications, then give CM7 a shot!
Cheers
