[Q] Anyone try JM7 (i9000 eclair) yet? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

JM7 is the latest Eclair build for the Galaxy S (not the captivate)
Wondering if BT works and if Sync Schedule for Exchange is there - the biggest things wrong with previous i9000 builds.
Thanks for any info.

bluetooth will most likely not be functional with a captivate kernel since it's the kernel that controls that, the ROM just chooses how to interface with it. since they weren't designed to be used together, they probably won't "just work" together without heavy kernel modifications.
as for exchange, couldn't tell you (don't have any exchange accounts)

The Froyo build is working with BT. And the BT chip should be the same between devices, so I am not convinced BT won't work.

They also use the same wireless radios yet the fmradio app doesn't work even with the i9000 kernel. We also have the same gravity sensor/accelerometer, yet that doesn't work properly either. It's more than just kernel. It's a combination of the rom, the kernel, and hardware access. Considering these are issues specific to running software not designed to work with the captivate, they will likely never be fixed by samsung so a new rom won't make them magically work.
As for bluetooth working on froyo, it works in eclair too for pairing, just isn't fully functional with audio

OK, let me clarify as i am hoping for experiences not speculation -
BT audio for phone calls works fine in Froyo with a captivate kernel according to reports but not in previous Eclair builds - has anyone tried BT audio in JM7?

I would love to know where you say someone said "BT audio works fine in froyo with a captivate kernel."
we have no captivate kernel compatible with froyo. when you flash a froyo build, you're using the i9000 kernel because there are no captivate ROMs available yet. if you try using the eclair captivate kernel in the froyo i9000 ROM, your phone will not even boot (have to fix through download mode)

My typo -I know the kernel is specific to the version. - i have not tried a Froyo build yet - but the fact is Froyo BT works for audio as reported in other threads. So it is not unthinkable that Jm7 could have working BT Audio on our Captivate.
Again, all i am asking for is if someone has any first hand knowledge, not speculation. I know what the older versions have as I have tried those - just tired of flashing ROMs for now.

[Q] Bluetooth Voice Controls on new leaked Froyo

Anyone try using BT voice controls on this leaked Captivate Froyo ROM? I have a BlueAnt Q1 and it is not working. I did try it on the leaked I9000 Froyo ROM and it worked fine.

I'm wondering the same thing, I asked in the thread discussing the ROM as well as several other people, but it's the one question that has not been answered once, let alone 700 times
I don't think it works, but I think we're more likely to be able to get this from the i9k rom to put in to JI6 than we were to put it into one of the Eclair ROMs. That's just my 2 cents, but i'm no coder.

Flashed Tayutama Edition v1.0.0 for captive.. results

Froyo based rom, has the standard issues. Home and back reversed, volume keys reversed, radio does not work. Will not connect to data. (I am going to flash radio tomorrow, will post results) wifi works, bluetooth works, gps appears to work, speaker works, have not tried headphones yet.
URL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808763
Have not tried the i9000 version yet. Will tomorrow as well. Flashing back to vibrant stock now, recovery flash didn't work. Had an SD card error when entering recovery mode.
EDIT: When I said radio does not work, I meant data. it's late. It did work, It would show a signal just no data, could not make a call. When doing a network scan, only found AT&T
I have flashed back to bionix, I need a working phone tomorrow. I am going to re-flash this tomorrow for further testing. I do not recommend anyone flash this. If I can get a working radio, i'll update here.
shouldnt all the captivate roms flashed on the vibrant have the same standard issues?

Yes.....
but I've said enough.
If people want to flash ROMs that are useless that's up to them...
seems like another pointless thread, that should be put in General, not really useful to anyone
Why dont u ask the devs 4 idea on how to work this out!! Then this would be a valid thread for development! With that said keep up your work eberyone has a right to post just in the right place.
Peace Out!

I would like to point out that the Captivate rom from tautama isn't a captivate rom at all, but an I9000 rom with an I9000 kernel that the source code that was online a few days ago was used to fix the issues of running an I9000 kernel on a captivate.
lol people keep doing this giving moons an idea that they should too, lol thing is most people here can't even flash a vibrant rom. Hahaha

[Q] Rom w/ Nexus S Bluetooth Driver

If you tried out the Nexus S rom ported to the galaxy S, you probably know that the bluetooth drivers are capable of pairing with a wiimote unlike the stock bluetooth driver. Does anyone know of any rom with the Nexus S bluetooth stack on it? or does anyone know how i could possible put it in my current rom i'm using (cognition 2.3b8).
Also, could anyone make an odin version of cognition 2.3b8 please? flashing to stock every time i screw it up is annoying. If you can't, that's fine.

Would want this as well!
I'd love this too.
Cm7 has this

Wired headset buttons not working on most builds

Maybe this is just me but most builds I install don't have a working wired headset. I have tried searching for a fix, but the only thing I have found is that it could be a kernel problem that has not been fixed due numerous kernel updates. Does anybody know of a fix that can take care of this problem, or know of a NAND or Clockwork build (preferably desire HD) where the wired headset works.
Yes, i have this problem with the wired headset.
Now with my Bluetooth Headset (Calypso BT) buttons are working perfectly
My conclusion is that the problem is.. the sound card driver =)
Correct me if i'm wrong, i'd be honored to see someone correcting me
when i use Gauner1986 ROM with ROM's kernel or MDJ kernel 9.2, 9.3, my Wired headset buttons are working fine, but when i upgarde to 10.3 oc MDJ kernel, it does not work anymore
I just tried the new CoreDroid rom (Jan 24) and it doesn't work. I also tried the revolution 2.3 rom and no luck.
+1 for this problems... Only Gauner1986 HD 0.3 is Work... Others HD or Z Build... does not working at all... so, i can't anwser my phone calls when i driving my motorbike... and control music player :-<
Gauner's kernel supports this function. MDJ's does not. It is that simple.
If you want your buttons to work, use Gauner's kernel.
The core Droid roms work great with wired headphones I'm using the supersonic with no problems

CoreDroid - the wired headset doesn't work.
So the question is what is included in gauner1986's or older kernels that is missing or modified in other kernels (like MDJ's 10.4OC)?

I think you're right. If you stick with a Cyanogen 6.1 Froyo build it should work. I am running NexusHD2-Froyo v1.9G NAND by tytung and it works fine with PowerAmp in case that helps.
CMYLXGO's BlueTopia v1.0.6n and the rest of his should work if you are looking for a Desire HD base.
PRJ kernel should work too...

[Q] poor voice quality on certain roms

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10882057&postcount=1751
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.
