Darky Q&A
It seems that a pinned Q&A for Darky is missing here.
I have been using Darky 8.1 and just recently decided to give 9.3 a try. One of the things I have liked about Darky is that that the version of 2.2.1 on it supports bluetooth voice dial. I have a BlueAnt S4 in my car, and although it does not voice dial 100% perfectly, it's still worth using. (the rest of the 2.2.1 roms I have tried that do not support bluetooth handsfree)
Okay, here is my question: on Darky 8.1, going to Settings - Display - Wallpaper -Lock screen wallpaper - Gallery ... would result in->
Sorry!
The application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
[Force close]
I seem to remember the initial update to 9.0 (or 9.1) listed that this was fixed. I just got 9.3 running last night, and this still results in a force close. Does Darky have a forum to post this kind of thing, where the developers might see it?

Okay, Swype just expired.

I am on Darky 9.3 extreme captivate edition. Any fix?

Same problem here, also on Darky 9.3 extreme cappy. I've tried reflashing the captivate swype file, restoring a previous back up, and installing the newest beta. No dice on all 3 accounts.
This doesn't seem to be a problem with just Darky though, and poking around the site it doesn't look like it is exclusive to the Captivate either.
Darky's 9.3 phone not receiving calls
Once again I would have posted in Darky thread in android development if I could..
Ever since I have installed Darky's my phone has had problems receiving calls and will often say "simcard removed from phone please reboot". Today I got a new simcard because I thought that may be the problem but I tested and it still doesn't work. My friend rung me and as the call comes through my phone loses service and the call gets cut instantly and slightly later it'll pop up saying simcard removed please reboot phone. Is anyone else having this problem? Maybe it's time to go to Cyanogen Mod..
Did you ever restore data with Titanium Backup after you installed Darky's?
Yup I restored everything that was on my old rom Cognition
That's your problem. I used to have the same problem. Your phone settings is different between the two ROMs. You should typically ONLY restore app data. Not the system data.
Try going into back into TiBu, then find 'Phone' and click on 'Wipe data'. Hopefully that'll make your calls work again. If not, you might need to reflash Darky's.
System data backups really don't work well between different ROMs (and even different versions of the same ROM).
P.S. Nice to meet another NZer btw.
Oh I see, yeah that makes sense, I asked a friend if I should restore everything I backed up and he wasn't sure so I just restored them all anyway. Now I'm not sure if I should reflash Darky's or move to Cyanogen Mod.
I would try the 'Wipe data' thing first before I try any flashing though!
Upgrade from 9.2 to 9.3 help
In the dev thread, it says you should flash a captivate kernal and modem before installing 9.3. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a guide to flashing modems/kernals.
Just kinda worried cause I have read so much about people bricking their phones when putting the wrong kernal/modem combo together. I noticed on the Darky app it has options already there, so do I have to downlad the kernal seperately, or did it come with the app, or does the app download it from somewhere?
I am afraid that if I flash the modem first, then reboot it won't match the kernal and I will get stuck.
Thanks!

You can flash a Modem in Recovery just like you Flash a ROM or Kernel. If you happen to Flash a wrong Modem it won't cause any problems other than you won't get Cell Service. I am presently using the New znkp1 modem and it doing Great on my Cappy with 9.3 Darky and SuckerPunch/Voodoo Kernel.

Yeah.. Use No Kernel/No Modem in DarkyRom Configurator app and do as RonH54 said!

Just letting you know that in the Darky Rom Configurator App, if u enable LockScreen Wallpaper, it would use Samsung Gallery which has a battery draining bug. Hence it is an option in the Darky app before flashing.
If you really want to use it, enable it and then flash. Or I'll just work on disabling that menu option.

Don't know if I'm too late on this but...the modem/kernel combo included has been working good for me; no need to change it. Like rickysa2000 said, don't select a modem/kernel using Darky's Configurator when you flash 9.3.
My only SMALL issue has been when going into APPS and sometimes they won't scroll for maybe two/three seconds.
But it's still my favorite ROM so far (though it's only my fourth). Especially impressed with the dev's attitude and willingness to help!!!
[ROM] Darkyy's 10.0 Gingerbread!
I was just in the i9000 forum and Darkyy said he will have a flashable rom on friday!!! I hope we can get this ported for the Cappy.
Edit: looks like beta 3 is already available for the i9000. Got so excited I impulse posted...

i do not think the port will be coming anytime soon. Without source you can not have a captivate kernel. You can flash i9000 but no back button, and screen rotation, head phone jack, etc

Hi guys,
I just installed the video editor from Samsung Apps, Im running the sweet honey rom (JVB 2.3.3)
For some reason the app keeps force closing on me and I get the following error.
Anyone know what might be the issue? Have wiped Dalvik and Cache but made no difference.
Thanks
Not sure if this is a general issue or a rom specific issue so posted here.
I can answer both:
The program has all sorts of bugs and is only working properly on the galaxy tab.
I've tried it on froyo stock doc deodexed, Jvk, doc jvk deodrxed, and finally simply honey rc3 same rom as you. Never worked for me
Is there any decent alternative on the android market?
There was a time when i could only find vidéo editor for...vidéo editing.It seem other software has come out now.
Worked fine for me on froyo but never since 2.3
(FC) and i'ts sure we're not the only ones.Not so amazing that certain apps ain't yet working well on ginger.
Hi can you please tell me what other software has come out for it?
Thanks
Never tried other ones yet but i've seen much more apps than before the last time i've checked the market a few weeks ago.Sorry.
Edit:Vidtrim for example.
Ps: personally,i love clayframes for doing stop-motion video.
Hello to anyone reading this your time is greatly appreciated.
I have been trolling forums for a couple of days now and am not sure which process may help me out of my situation the best. I am new to android and recently used a one click Samsung s program to root my phone. It worked fine until after I uninstalled some stock apps and ran a cleaning app. I began getting the Sorry! The application settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly when I would try to change the voice ringtone and many apps followed suit when I would try to use them.
I came to the conclusion that a factory reset may solve my problem. It only made it worse. I can no longer download apps; kies, media player and my pc do not recognize the phone, kies won't update, the android market has a different theme, and most things I try to do on the phone I get the Sorry! message.
I did not flash my ROM because I did not learn about it until after the restore.
My question is what has the highest probability of making my phone work properly again, flashing the ROM (I have been looking at a Darky's custom ROM), downloading an newer firmware version ( I currently have 2.2 FROYO), or is there another way to fix the issues that I just have not come across yet?
I appreciate any pointers or advice and once again thank you for taking the time to review this post.
I would have to say your best option right now is to switch over to CyanogenMod 7.
Since you are still on froyo the installation is dead simple now thanks to codeworkx's efforts and atinm's nightly updates are knocking off the last few open issues like 9 pins. Plus great kernel makers and an experienced user base means that the community is active and high spirited.
Come to the CM7 thread in the dev forum, read the first post and the troubleshooting post (also on the first page) to get all the instructions and to see a video that makes very clear why cm7 is the gold standard of android ROMs.

Thank you very much I will check out the CM7 thread!
Is there a fix, or different apk, for the email stock app (not gmail) that will fix the auto capitalization and auto complete? All other apps seem to work fine, but mail.
I am currently on Pinnacle 1.3 for Captivate, but had the same issue on Cognition 5, v1 and v2.
I saw there was a possible fix in the CM7 thread, but I tried to install it with CWM and it failed.
Thank you in advance for help.
Sorry if this post is in the wrong area, but I think I am okay. I have posted this question in the Cog and Pinnacle threads, but got no response.
Is it possible that no one else has this issue? Is it just me? Interesting that I have posted this several times, in different forums, and do not get a response?
Please reply if you do or do not have this issue. Thank you.
I have the same issue with the leaked 2.3.3 GB ROM. I haven't looked for a fix.
It is nice to know I'm not completely alone, but it is still interesting how few responses are here. Not sure what to make of that...
Anyone? Please... I have to get this fixed or I will have to bo back to early releases that didn't have the issue, which I really do not want to do...;-(
I really don't know. Only thing I would try is pulling the email apk from a froyo and using it on your ROM. I don't know if it will work or not.
Installed the ICS update via kies a few hours ago (I actually held out on stock GB for nearly 6 months!)
Everything seems ok apart from a few icons missing and extreme amount of lag over GB. First I thought it probably needs a restart but nothing changed. I then tried touchwiz and SPB shell and they didn't have any lag and all the icons were showing up.
So I am assuming Go Launcher EX is not compatible at the moment - real shame.
Go to Andorid Games and Apps forum, find v3 Beta4 and try.
GoLauncherEx working fine for me...

I'll try it but I already have v3 from the market (updated today) so it might be a problem on my note.
Moved To Q&A
Please post questions in the Q&A section
Working fine for me too. I restored using Titanium rather than installing from the Market if that makes any difference.
I had major lag issues with this after the ICS upgrade. I ended up going into Applications pressing Force Stop then Clear Data and finally uninstalling it. Once I had done that I re-downloaded the app from Go's own website. It's running just fine now.
It originally came from a backup created by Appsaver so I have no idea why it would lag like that. All I know is, I'm glad it's sorted.
