Mine definitely still do. Was playing music the other day.

Maybe reflash, see if that solves your issues?

my 3G doesn't work with this ROM.

Cognition is based on an old beta build of froyo while darky is on the final build of froyo, that's reason enough to switch.

Well, sort of. Cognition is from a 2.2 beta *for the Captivate*. Darky is on the current 2.2.1 for the i9000. Cog base is definitely older, but there are also advantages to running native code.

Beat me to it.

There is, as of yet, no final official Android 2.2 for the Captivate. It will be interesting to see what the ROM developers can come up with once they have that code in their hands, considering the Captivate's hardware differs in several way from the other Galaxy S models, which is the root of many problems and challenges with custom ROMs.

The 2.3 ROMs will have the same challenges the 2.2 ROMs are having now, even after an official 2.2 release, but perhaps they can use pieces from the official 2.2 to make development of the 2.3 easier and more-compatible with the Captivate.

my 3G doesn't work with this ROM.

It seems I saw a setting somewhere on this ROM about allowing 3G use. I don't have 3G in my area so it didn't effect me. I'll look around on my phone and see if I can find it. I may be just dreaming this but I think it there.

Possibly, but I haven't found any for the time being so im going to stick with the newer build.

That guy has amazing Videos that has step by step details. I too used his Video to place Darky's ROM on my phone.

This maybe it. Settings--->Wireless and Network---->Mobile Networks. See if you have settings there you can Click or change. Like I said in other Post I don't have 3G here so this may not be any help.

7.02 is Out......

 

[jopet216]

Flashed Assoannce 5.2 and got my speakers and headphones back. Let's see how this rom works out.

 

[RonH54]

Darky's 7.5 is out

 

[chicknlil]

7.5 is indeed out here but looks a bit buggy as yet. I'm planning on holding off until things look more stable.

You have any issues with the speakers and aux input like I did? Also does your home button bring you back to the main screen when you press it, because it wasnt doing it with my flash.

 

[RonH54]

I have Flashed 7.5 over 7.01 and my Home button works and I have no problems with speakers and Headphones. The only problem I had was that couldn't mount my External SD card. I had to edit a file on the Phone to make it see Ext. Card but it now works. I also Flashed a different Modem and GPS fix which has really help my GPS Locks.

Just flashed 7.7, looks great so far. However, I'm having the same issues listed above. Any ideas (besides reflashing )?
