I have tried Perception and Cognition. I have tried all combinations of kernals and modems but no matter what I do I get very bad voice problems (dropped words,static etc.) when I use my cappy as a phone. Could the problem be in the phone itself, and if not, does anybody have any suggestions.

I wanted to reply to this post but I couldn't because I dont have enough posts to comment in the development forum, so I appologize if this is in the wrong location.
Just wanted to say that I'm experiencing the same issue as richsale with Cognition. Friends were complaining that my voice was very staticy and unclear.
I flashed back to stock using Odin and everything sounds normal now. So it seems like this is not a hardware issue.
Has anyone faced similar issues with some roms?
Thanks
Most likely its a modem issue - see the modem thread in dev section..

So I reflashed Congnition 3.04 and it's working now.. Before I was running it with GB's kernal, dont know what modem. That may have been the culprate.
I have Baseband I896UXJL1 right now
IIRC, Cognition is based on stock Captivate, while GB is a reoriented I9000 kernel. To run it, you'll need to replace the stock modem with an I9000 equivalent (JK4/JL2/JL3/KP1 all have ardent supporters), otherwise you'll run into voice problems. I believe it has to do with hardware vs. software noise cancellation on the two devices.

So as long as my kernel and modem match I should be ok?
I'd like to flash a faster kernel on top of cognition. Perhaps SpeedMod or GB.
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.

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.

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

So ive been rooting htc phones for a while, and my friend wanted me to root his captivate for him which was completed, and now the phone is running cm7 nightly 4/21, platypus kernel 4/27, but my friend keeps telling me he loses signal and cant make calls and or send text msgs. Im thinking its the modem, can anyone helps out a samsung noob(me lol) and let me know which modem i should use, and how to install it? i tried flashing through cwm recovery 3 but it doesnt like the scripts. thanks in advanced

How often does it happen to him? My buddy has a cappy running cm7 nightly no problem. I had some issues at first so I cleared system/cache/data and reflashed initial, then updated and it works fine. I lose service at times but I did before root anyways.

awesome thanks guys, i just flashed jl2 modem from the teamhacksung site, hopefully my friend will see better results. he said it was happening quite a bit. i also installed cm7 according to the instructions to a t
edit:i just flashed JL2 but when i look at baseband in about phone it says JK4 (confused)
Yes it is a mistake they have jk4 in the jl2 pack
You can flag any modem now just replace the modern bin in the flag package
Use the package because it is cwm 3 compatible
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
awesome, thanks alot
he may have one of the captivates with a rare hardware defect that makes him incapable of using i9000 modems (jk3, jk4, jl2, kc1, etc). I have a similar captivate and am forced to use the KB1 captivate modem (check my signature), which unfortunately has no voice processing. it makes calls sound horrendous, but it maintains a constant signal. so depending on how he wants to use his phone, it may work for him (assuming he doesn't place many phone calls, just texts). if not, for now, CM7 may be unusable for him and you may have to fall back to a KB1-based ROM that uses a Captivate kernel/modem.
I suggest Torch + OverStock kernel + KB1 modem.
There's absolutely no way around it?

nope. if he has a captivate suffering from this issue, his choices are to use KB1 and have ****ty voice quality or use a captivate modem/kernel combination on froyo. until audience chip is ported, there will be no alternatives.
Thread closed, since this can be discussed in the sticky.
When I plug my phone in to charge it stays at 800mhz instead of throttling down to 100-400mhz like its supposed to. I'm on pinnacle ROM and its taking forever to charge. Anyone else have this issue and maybe have a fix for it? Thanks.
Are you using Tegrak?
Yes, I do have it set to throttle down and using Ondemand scheduler.
Kill it and check if it get fixed. I recommend rebooting it after you change tegrak's settings.
Killing it seemed to have worked for now. How can I fix it so I can still overclock? It hasn't done it all the time, Just recently but I haven't installed any new apps or anything.

Try clearing the app's cache. Maybe even Dalvik if you have too? Don't know.
I'll try, thanks man.

well, getting rid of tegrak didn't help. Still charges and stays at 800mhz.

Try unistalling it then installing it? I've used tegrak on 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 and never had any issues with it.

Tried that and still no difference......can't figure it out.
What Freq and Voltage you running on each level? Are you using Tweaks? You said you had it "Ondemand" scaling but what min-max Freq?
Edit: I decided to test Tegrak on a 2.3.5 Beta Fusion build, seems to work fine.
Edit 2: Flashed another 2.3.5 beta build and I got that problem you had. Ill keep looking in to it

It might be a problem with something included in Pinnacle but I can't narrow it down.
Ondemand 100min-1200max with stock voltage settings.
Na Fusion VII Beta is doing the same thing. I think its a tweak on the kernel maybe? I've been kinda busy and will be for the next few days, so don't know when I'll mess with different kernels.
I'll try the other kernel option and see what I can find.

I'm having the same issues on continuum with latest talon kernel. And it's been installed on my phone for weeks now and the problem just started. I also have an issue with media server running constant and it gets the phone hot and drains the batt....not sure if the two things are related, but it all just happened all of a sudden.

Try re flashing ur modem.
I'm on ICS and use the UGKG3 modem, works great for me in BC
Kg3 in bc too works great.
You say you try different roms, but have you wiped, and reformatted it. I'd do that with a fresh odin flash with repartition. What firmware are you running? Maybe you could do with a firmware upgrade.
