BigCache steals 25MiB from the /dbdata partition and gives it to /cache. Personally, I've never come anywhere close to filling /dbdata, so I think it's a fair trade. The only drawback I'm aware of is that you won't be able to use Odin to flash anything that includes /dbdata unless you undo BigCache first.

Quick panel toggle configuration is a feature of JKay Deluxe 13. This ROM currently uses 12. (13 was released the same day as this ROM.) Depending on the complexity, I hope to get 13 included in one of the next updates.

I'll look into the Android keyboard issue today.

Hi, if I want to use semaphore and big cache what should I do?
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Thanks - Screen Capture FCs added to known issues. Will fix as soon as I can.

Edit: Fixed.

gggrrrr. I still can't use this ROM because my wifi still messes up. It reconnects and disconnects constantly. It has done this since Apex 10. I really want to use this ROM, but i can't. I connect to various networks and the static ip method will not work.
[Captivate Android Development] catman09:
Running great

so far the only issues

no information about the size of installed applications or how much RAM is being used

and recent applications shows something about "data network mode" but it still takes you to the right place
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Sorry, I don't follow.... Both Task Manager and Settings seem to be showing the above information correctly.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
You're moving from a Captivate based ROM to a I9000 ROM looking at your sig. Do a complete flash to I9000 stock then flash Apex 12.0. Run it with Semaphore 2.4.0c kernel. I'm currently using Apex 11.1 and never get any WiFi problems. Sometimes it'll take a couple times to disable and enable the WiFi but aside from that, no problems.

I'm a little confused by the new settings for lockscreen. Is there a way to change the lockscreen wallpaper to something other than a darkened homescreen wallpaper??
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Settings, Display, Wallpapers, Lock screen wallpaper.
[Captivate Android Development] mletchworth:
Tried that. When I click "Gallery" I get a Settings FC. Do I need to reinstall the 3D gallery?

EDIT: Yep, needed the Gallery 3D for it to work, even though I now have the option to pick another program.
[Captivate Android Development] catman09:
here is what I get

btw, does not seem to effect functionality in any way
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Oh, I see. Looks like you may have missed the bit where I mentioned that the extras have not yet been updated. The battery mod you installed is compatible with 11 only.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Yes, the lock screen wallpaper is a CoolIris (Gallery3D) setting and is completely managed by it. When asked to choose a lock screen wallpaper, CoolIris allows you to select an image using any capable program, but the actual saved image file is stored in the data configuration files for CoolIris. This is not my doing, but is how Samsung/Google (I assume) rigged it up. Also note that home screen wallpapers work completely differently.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
All the previously available extras/mods have now been updated for Apex 12.

Been running 12.0 for a day now and so far working well with the fixes applied. Just wondering if anyone applied thunderbolt tweaks to 12.0 and are there any issues with that?
[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
Are there any dramatic differences moving to 12 from 11.1 or is it mostly the warm-fuzzy feeling of being current? :) I've read the history page and while all the little tweaks are certainly good, there aren't any real biggies that jump out at me as mandating a "must...upgrade...NOW!" like some new things in the past. :) And the only fix in Android from 2.3.5 -> 2.3.6 is the voice search bug. Not to seem unappreciative or anything... progress marches on, sometimes slowly... it's just that given how long it takes me to get things settled and tweaked after a full-wipe update, I'm trying to weigh whether to jump on 12.0 now or wait a bit for a later 12.x when the rewards might be bigger. :)

Just looking for some feedback from those who've updated already... thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
been running stock 12.0 couple hours any call coming in shows number not the contact name, also no calls showing in log and phone.apk is constantly FC :(
[Captivate Android Development] mletchworth:
Updated from 11 and it's running very smooth. Don't know if it has anything to do with the new Talon version, or the fact that I'm now running RFS filesystem, but it feels great.

BTW, I am overclocked to 1200MHz but not running any thunderbolt tweaks. When I had Apex11, I was OC'd to 1200 and running all the tweaks (w/ EFS filesystem). Quadrant scores were higher before (2500 vs. 1500) but I swear it's snappier now. More proof that quadrant sucks?
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
I've got Thunderbolt tweaks installed and I see no problems thus far. It's running great.
[Captivate Android Development] cliftomr1082:
All running good here. Great job psych.

Music Player problem:

The music player gets stuck (instant pause and resume) from time to time, generally once or twice every song.

The kernel I use is Semaphore 2.4.0 cbm, with Governors: Ondemand, Schedulers: No-op. Changing to Smartass2 and Sio does not help.

I have replace the music player with stock deodexed one from darky jw1 base, the problem has gone.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Which boot loaders are you using?
[Captivate Android Development] dongfangri:
I use I9000 boot loaders.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Looks like I can't win with this one... The KK4 (Apex default) music player seems to work best with I897 boot loaders, while the JW1 player works best with I9000.
[Captivate Android Development] dongfangri:
JW1 Player is OK. You have already done a great job.

[Captivate Android Development] cursedwave:
While I can get Apex to run just fine with Talon, I, for the life of me just can't get it to run with Semaphore. I ultimately wind up in a bootloop until Semaphore clears out the init.d folder, and even then it'll sometimes keep on bootlooping. Tried it on a fresh Apex 12 install with stock Semaphore settings, but no luck. No OC or UV settings, or added tweaks (such as Thunderbolt!).

If tried installing it through MobileOdin and CWM, and on both RFS and ext4. I can't tell if it's the kernel, the ROM, some troublesome app, or flat out my phone, but I figured I'd try asking here first to see if anybody's had a similar experience or has any advice to offer. :(

I am having the exact same issue with Semaphore but with Saurom 2.3.6. It did not happen however, with corn kernel i9000. So I'm guessing it could be the Semaphore kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] kafepuya:
which version are you guys using? Have you tried with a earlier version of Semaphore?

I'm using semaphore 2.4.0cbm now, this kernel works fine till now.
[Captivate Android Development] cursedwave:
Right now, I'm using 2.4.0 BigMem, though the problems started earlier than that. I can't recall exactly on which version, though. First couple of versions gave me no issues, if I recall correctly. I'll try the regular memory version later tonight, and probably take this over to the Semaphore thread now that someone on a different ROM has had the same issue.

Does anyone have the sgs2 phone.apk and will it work with this ROM? I accidentally deleted my phone.apk shortly after flashing apex 12.

[Captivate Android Development] melvinaury:
You can unzip the phone.apk from the apex 12 zip file and copy the file to system\app folder. Then reboot and you should have the phone app back.

Sounds simple enough. Thanks. Do you know if this is the same one that comes on the sgs2?

The phone app is from JW1. The dialer/contacts app is from SGS2. The dialer is the one that requests calls from the user, while the phone app actually interacts with the hardware.

I just want to report that even not using the big cache version I can still download large apps (over 30mb) from market just fine (just downloaded windup knight)
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Also, for future reference, all app mods and sources are listed here.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
This is normal and has been the case in all versions of Apex that I've personally used (started at 9).
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
This is good to hear. I'll do some testing, and if everything works out, I'll go ahead and remove the partitioning options from the installation, which will greatly simplify things.
[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
Just flash the kernel then open the Semaphore app, go to miscellaneous and choose the option "Clean Busybox". Reboot the phone and select the "Virtual /cache to 50mb".

[Captivate Android Development] gsx-r:
A dangerous issue with Apex 12 is the phone sometimes freezes while the screen is off. That means when we don't use the phone we won't know the phone is being in freezing. Might we won't recieve any call and sms through the time. I have to reset the phone by holding both volume up and power buttons. To me it has happened about 5 times already. Anyone got the same problem? I used DarkCore kernel and I897 bootloaders. Any idea?
[Captivate Android Development] wjohnson:
I have this problem too. I re flashed kernel, ROM, wiped cache and dalvik and some started working, but some just won't show up. Still trying to figure this one out. Any ideas folks?

BTW I love this ROM! on Apex 11.1 beta, my quadrant was 2522 w/Talon and OC to 1.3. Highest ever for my cappy.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Sleep of death is generally a phone issue, not a ROM issue. Certain combinations of ROM/kernel/modem/etc can sometimes exacerbate the problem, but the root cause is nearly always faulty hardware.
[Captivate Android Development] n311.dunkle:
Excellent ROM BTW. I've been away from the forum for so long I missed apex 11. Just came from 10.1 and the only problem I have so far is my own idiocy. Phone.apk is still in the system/app folder. But the shortcut buttons for phone don't work and there is no phone app in my app drawer. Is there somewhere else I should look?

Sent from my SGH-I897
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Sounds like you're looking for Contacts.apk, which contains the dialer app. That's what creates the "Phone" shortcut in the app drawer.
[Captivate Android Development] n311.dunkle:
...yep...that was it. I feel kinda dumb now. So from an earlier post I gather that the sgs2 phone.apk isn't compatible with captivate hardware? But the contact.apk is, because it's more of an interface?

Sent from my SGH-I897
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
That's a reasonable way to think about it. The SGS2 phone.apk could probably be ported, but it doesn't seem like it's worth the trouble. Not enough benefit for the amount of work.

Running Apex 12.0 with Darkcore Kernel, no lagfix, had it running for about 24 hours since I flashed. I had an issue with the phone when I completed a call I moved the phone away from my face and expected the screen to turn on so I could end the call, but the screen never turned on. I had to do a battery pull to get the phone to respond again.

I made and received a few calls today, via the handset and via Bluetooth, and didn't have an issue until the last call. Hopefully it won't be a reoccurring issue.
[Captivate Android Development] Elad92:
Hey, I'm facing a pretty hard issue with 12.0.

I've installed it over Apex 11.1 with semaphore 2.4.0, and when I tried to connect the phone to the computer the device wasn't recognized by the computer.

I tried to reflash rom and kernel but it didn't helped.

But when I tried to mount the usb storage via CWM it worked.

Does anyone facing the same problem as I am?
[Captivate Android Development] n311.dunkle:
I personally had USB problems BEFORE I flashed 12. Off course I came from 10.1 as I missed the whole 11 update. Have you tried connecting to Hiemdall in download? I'd like to say reinstall drivers on your computer but I doubt that's the issue.

Edit: might try to reboot the computer, in case you haven't tried that.

Sent from my SGH-I897

I came to say that I reflashed the kernel and restarted the computer and it solved the problem. Thanks anyway!

OK, is there anyway to flash apex 12 with odin? I cannot get heimdal to work under win7. I ran zadiag, installed the driver, it fails with a "waiting for response from loke" or somesuch.

However, if I reset the driver back to the regular samsung one, then I can run the AT&T Eclair one-click installer and get back everything back.

I flashed apex 9 using odin, it worked fine.

and on my system, odin worked fine for flashing the bootloaders.

If I can't, I can't, there are other roms, I have an SGS2, so I'm nto really willing to invest a ton of time into this, I just wanted to get current on my daughters phone, but she doesn't do anything but facebook anyway...

anyway, any help appreciated.

+1 changing drivers on a win7 pc can be a pain. I know odin has issues but hiemdall does to!
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
I'm getting a couple bootloops when I restart the phone still... Had the problem with Apex 11 as well. Thought flashing to stock prior to flashing Apex 12 would fix this but nope.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
If you're coming from a "normal" Gingerbread ROM (not CyanogenMod or MIUI), just use Odin to flash any kernel that has ClockworkMod. Then use that CWM to install either the Darkcore or Talon Preload CWM, followed by the Apex 12 CWM.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
(Assuming your sig is accurate...) I get random bootloops and other very odd behaviors with Semaphore, too. There are good reasons it's not currently listed in the choices for Preload kernel/modem packages. I can't even get logcat successfully enabled to *try* to figure out what's wrong.

I've never called this out before because I don't want to discourage people from trying other kernels. With active development, whether any given one works great or not can change faster than I can keep up.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Make sure you enable logging in the Semaphore app. It should let you use logcat.

I run the combo in my sig with multiple phones, and I believe it only happens on my phone. My dad and friend who also runs this combo hasn't said anything to me. Well my friend's phone still glitches, but hers needs an Odin back to stock.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
Yeah, it should.... But it never did for me. Sometimes these phones are crazy finicky. I just recently got it to work by manually copying the logger.ko file to the needed location. Of course, now it's not boot looping....

So I could install 9.2 again, and try it again then if I understand you correctly. I tried heimdall again from another lappy and I'm getting the exact same results, although this is a laptop I've used just fine with odin...

I'll give it another shot.
[Captivate Android Development] Elad92:
Hey, love the new update!

Few things:

1. Please make that the rom contains modem and kernel in its installation, and then we wouldn't have to install them before (if we aren't running GB rom).

2. Can I downloaded hebrew language to the new swype?

3. Can you please repost the fixes for 12.0 because I don't want to upgrade to 12.1 right now.. I did a few changes in the framework.jar (heb fix) and I don't want to mess with it (the new update changes framework.jar).

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] mrcpu:
Well, after much wailing and gnashing of teeth I got it resolved. I flashed back to ECLAIR AT&T stock, then flashed GB bootloaders with odin. Then switched drivers to heimdall, and flashed the darkcore pre-load, then booted and installed 12.1 from CWM.

I tried flashing talon preload several times, and could never get past the progress bar going all the way to the right, and then just sitting there. Soon as Ii switched to darkcore, installation proceeded just peachy.

It seems to be working OK, with one minor problem, I restored a few apps from tibu, and then rebooted, and they were all missing again. Restored again using the android installer option from inside tibu and they seem to be sticking.

FWTW...
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
yes you can I downloaded from swype and works nice
[Captivate Android Development] FreddieP:
The Apex installation instructions say it needs to be an I9000 ROM. Does it matter? I'm currently running an I897 based GB ROM. Could I install Apex Kernel pre-install pkg via CWM or do I have to use Heimdal?
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
I believe that as long as you have CWM instead of the default recovery and are on GB boot loaders, you'll be able to simply install the preload files followed by Apex.
[Captivate Android Development] FreddieP:
Sweet! Thanks! DLing 12.1 now. Will post follow up.

I went from 11.1 -> 12.1, full wipe of course. I've gotten everything set back up fine but I'm noticing I don't have the full list of lockscreens I should. The only ones I can choose from are "None", "JKay Glass Deluxe" and "JKay AOSP Deluxe" and the two JKay ones look 100% identical.

Is there a way I can get these back without wiping and starting over from scratch? It's taken me a long time to get things set back up to how they are now. :(

[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
Thanks. Nevermind. I'm an idiot and forgot where I set this before.

(In my defense, there are a lot of different lockscreen settings scattered in different places... I don't think this is necessarily the ROM's fault, but it'd sure be nice if they were all together).

Is it possible to remove duplicate Apps for future releases? I have to clean a lot of apps in Titanium Backup, and sometimes I remove the wrong one. Take Contacts.apk for example. There's 2 of them but only one of them work.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
There are no duplicate apps. What you are seeing in TiBu regarding Contacts is unfortunate naming. The Contacts app has the same name as the Contacts widget.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
These are the ONLY functional lock screen settings. As noted in the features list and elsewhere, JKay's lock screens are not included and thus the settings in Customization (Deluxe) are not relevant.
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
I'm sorry, but I don't quite understand what you mean....
[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
Ah ok, missed that... my apologies. Is there a way to adjust what apps the icons point to then in the other lockscreens? Notably, the messaging app in the MIUI lock screens. They seem hard-coded to the stock messaging app but I (like many others) use Google Voice. While the JKay lockscreens seem to offer this customization, the others do not appear to.

I did come across this which should've been exactly what I needed but it doesn't seem to work on Apex:

Icons that I had before are no longer there. For instance, The e-mail icon that is white with a red wax stamp of an @ symbol is gone. All that I have is the white and yellow one. Don't really like it. Maybe it was a go launcher theme icon? Don't know but it still shows up in TiBU.
