[Captivate Android Development] dropslash:
Just flashed last night, and aside from shutting down through the night while charging, I've had zero problems, installation went off without a hitch. Currently running the Glitch kernel v14 (will update to latest version as soon as I am able to get the updater app). I've read that using the app Keep Alive might help so I will try using the builtin clock app to keep the screen on while it charges tonight. It seems to be running better/faster than Serendipity 6, Serendipity VII, and Cyanogenmod 7 that I had previously tried. Very happy to have ICS on my Captivate. The GPS positioning has never been faster, nearly instantaneously while sitting inside next to a window.

It's great that it has backlight notifications built-in, but in the settings it says 'Pulse Notification Light' but the lights don't pulse, they just stay on. It's not something that will drive me away from using the ROM by any means, but is there any plans to actually have the lights blink (pulse)?

I have no idea what's under the hood, but I've been using this as my daily for over a month, and I can't imagine we are far from nightlies.
[Captivate Android Development] XGX5309:
#16 with Glitch B5 makes the Captivate FLY. Literally. Set OC to 1GHz, then LiveOC to 120% = 1.2GHz with a nice bus/GPU OC. Makes everything so smooth. It actually made me switch back to my Captivate as a primary device... I'd previously been using an Atrix which was great with Gingerbread, but wow... this is much better.

There's a map that you can look at to help find a good modem for your area. Just make sure to download a "CM7/MIUI & ICS" modem.

Yes I'm also curious to know if a Build 17 is in the works =) I'm currently on B16 and have had absolutely NO problems so far. Great Job!!

just wondering why is this still on Alpha when everything seems to be working fine?
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
The reason why millions love and use CM, the most stable and fast rom. Each and every detail has to be perfect.
[Captivate Android Development] Malorkus:
Almost everything works great and I wanted to thank the devs. One small thing I noticed is that Tasker can't turn GPS on and off anymore on CM9, whereas it can with CM7. Apparently by default Google doesn't allow apps to do this on Gingerbread and up, but CM7 reenables this ability. Is reenabling this for CM9 on the to-do list? Thought it was worth a mention...
[Captivate Android Development] gstern:
Try "secure settings" from the market as a workaround.
[Captivate Android Development] bondarun:
Guys here is what i did..

I used Odin one click to install stock GB rom..

Then rooted it using Cornkern KK4 705

Then i installed CM9 using the Proper steps ( wipe thingi )

then i installed the gapps 7.1 and then the KH3 Radio.. booted up fine but no Signal after that.. Sim card reads fine but no service at the end :(

It Reads on my stock 2.3.5 GB rom :(

now going to try KC1 radio :(

Am on India Vodafone network :(

Edit:

Got my Signal Back guys.. I used CM7 Rom and then Flashed to CM9 Rom..

:p also i saw some connectors which need the back door placed in :p

dono its also a culprate for it :D

Guys suggest me a Best kernel for this Rom..

Right now am on Some pawitp@pawitpmbp#1 kernel..
[Captivate Android Development] ajh5408:
Nightlies are starting to crop up for a few devices as of yesterday... I guess that means their new build server is running, so hopefully the Captivate will see some love soon!
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
The developers have kindly requested that people only use the THS kernel included with the ROM (the pawitp kernel). If you insist on going against the developers wishes, please do your own research for what other kernels exist and then post exclusively in the forum for that kernel as your bug reports will do nothing to help THS if you are not using their kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] SkitchBeatz:
This is borderline asking for an ETA. Going by the trend one is in the works. We just have to be patient.
[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
Done. Well let you know how it goes.

Thanks for looking into this.
[Captivate Android Development] sblees:
After a few days let me know if it works, I'd like to come back! Lol :-)
[Captivate Android Development] nyciz:
Test Kernel #2 was a potential solution for the "rebooting during calls" ? Can anyone else can confirm that this actually so?

Not knocking Capfearless, but I would confirmation before applying a kernel. I usually keep things stock. Also (i know I should search) Where is the test kernel #2 for BL15? TIA

---------- Post added at 02:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:44 PM ----------

Does anyone know if this is build specific? I'm still on B15....TIA
[Captivate Android Development] RaptorOne3:
+1 x 2 = What he said...

The best kernel for this ROM is the kernel that came with it! We live by that rule around here... You shouldn't even mention other kernels here... Bad juju brah...
[Captivate Android Development] Malorkus:
Another missing feature or am I just too dumb to find it in the new menu structure: I can't find a way to disable app permissions on a per-permission basis in CM9.. Not a huge deal, but is it coming back?
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
It is likely that we will see most CM7 apps/abilities ported to CM9 (with the exception of things that ICS does natively now). If you want any details about what is being ported, you will have to see what you can find about the core CyanogenMod development. The CM9 github is probably the best place to start (good luck if you do look).

As far as ETA's, none will be given, so don't bother asking. Watching github is about all you can do (unless you want to do your own development and contribute).
[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
Duplicate post see below.
[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
Below is a reply to nyciz...
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
I also have installed the testril.zip. So far it looks good (my phone will ring), but it is too early to tell if the problem still exists since incoming calls do not always fail to ring.
[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
Ditto. Will report back in a few days.

Honestly, my phone hasn't missed any calls on over a week so even a few days won't be terribly conclusive. Hopefully all the folks with the missed call issue will apply the test and we can get some real sense of whether it works.
[Captivate Android Development] nyciz:
Capefearless, thanks for the response. I'm curious were you got that Test Kernel#2 fixed the issue? I'm not knocking / or being wiseguy, just curios if anyone was able to id the issue that causes the "in call reboot" as I still got that problem.

But again Cape I appreciate your response.
[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
I never said it fixed the issue. I only experienced the issue one time and reported it here. Pawitp suggested that I try test kernel #2 and so I did. The issue has not presented again since then.

So, while my one time issue did not repeat after application, I'd hardly call this conclusive. Just my limited experience.

Sorry if I was misleading or unclear in my earlier post.

EDIT: Actually it was Three of Nine that suggested I try the Kernel and helpfully pointed me to it much as he did in the post below...
[Captivate Android Development] ThreeofNine:
The test kernel#2 is in post # 5750.

box.net 50Gb Storage

Off Topic and unrelated to the ROM, but a Public Service announcement...

Box.net is offering free 50GB cloud storage for life if you sign up from your android. DL the app, sign up with a new email address and upon completion it gives you a message that you now have 50Gb. Normally it is only 5Gb so this is a heck of a freebie.

Not sure how long it lasts so go get it. By the way, it is just "Box" on the Market.

Sorry for the off topic post but thought some of you could benefit.

[Captivate Android Development] derek21:
After having the shutdown issues(after charging and when phone was idle for long periods of time) when I flashed Build 16, I flashed back to stock, did a complete wipe and reflashed Build 16. I am happy to say I have not had a problem since. I also do not have any force closes with the gapps and I'm using Chrome without any issues.
[Captivate Android Development] ptesmoke:
lol too funny ;-) hope u like it bud!
[Captivate Android Development] Slayer_b:
build 16, latest GAPPS, fresh install (all wipes including system).

Not syncing browser bookmarks in subfolders. So, my ROOT directory of bookmarks is synced and I can see ROOT bookmarks and sub-directories, when I entering to sub-directory, it is empty. Tried to reflash and to flash different GAPPS downloaded via RomManager, didn't helped.

I don't know when it happens first time, but I suggest it happens with build 16.
[Captivate Android Development] DarkisFever:
My sync for Browser Bookmarks has never worked (on 14 or 16). I just use Chrome instead and it syncs all my contacts from my PC to my phone. Much simpler.
[Captivate Android Development] tiuk:
Worked for me before i switched to Chrome. I remember because it was a nice surprise, wasn't expecting the feature.

Sending...

Hi, just after every Boot animation, appears a popup that says "Sending..." in the bottom of the screen

Anybody knows what this mean?

Sending what?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
Do you have the reporting enabled for sending to CMStats? I've seen it too and its the only thing I can think of.
[Captivate Android Development] SnakeHaveYou:
No, i just disabled reporting because of that popup, and keeps appearing :confused:

It shows from the first boot (after a clean install)..
[Captivate Android Development] J0ESK0:
I had that happening to me as well. I also had CM reporting unchecked. What I did was flash a new modem from the list in ROM Manager. I was previously using a modem from the soggycashew website. Anyway, after flashing the new modem, the sending pop up stopped happening. Give it a try.

Guys a Small Problem..

Am using this ROM..

When i get a Msg or a Missed call, Am not getting the Total amount of Missed call or message on the Message or Phone icon...

I Have to pull down the notification bar to notice whether i got a message or a miss call..

Is this Normal or is there any fix for it?

excessive battery drain

Since using THS ICS, my battery life has been much better than ever before. I could frequently go for 2 days without a charge. Then, recently I did a "factory reset" in CWR because I had updated to the goo-inside.me version of gapps and experienced various problems. Ever since the factory reset, my battery life had gotten much worse, I could barely get through 1 day without running out of battery power. I tried clearing caches, fixing permissions, removing apps to no avail. Battery stats just showed the mysterious "Android System" consuming anywhere from ~50% to nearly 70% of battery.

Then, last night I reflashed build 16 and the goo-inside.me gapps again (no restart between) and suddenly my battery life is back to how it was previously. It is still a bit early to declare that it is definitely fixed, but so far today my battery is much closer to where it was before the factory reset.

Not sure if this information will help anyone, but if you have very poor battery life and "Android System" is the drain (not some other app), try reflashing the same build you are using and gapps again to see if it helps.

Reboot during Call when Display turns off when not on Charger Problem

Hi all:

As many may know (or read from my past posts), I had this problem with my cappy. The title of this post list the conditions for the bug:

-Make/get a call

-wired headset plugged into phone

-Screen turns off on its own (Settings Display TimeOut) while still on call

-and then the phone reboots, the person you was talking too hear if hi pitch tone.

Well I'm happy to reply (evethough I was skeptical....goodlookin out CapeFearless), that with flashing the RILtest.zip that pawitp posted a while back (and CapeFearless pointed me to) :DFREAKING WORKED....well thought it did see EDIT:D

No more reboots during calls, my battery was at a100% at 6AM EST time I disconn from chrgr, its now 5pm EST, have taken multiple calls (17mins over 9 calls) with the phone off the charger/USB and my battery is at 35%.

B4 ppls say that horrible batt life, I had my screen on 4hr 48min, listening to Pandora over wifi. So not bad at I think, and yes I have gotten 1D 15Hrs + but thats only if I charge the phone and barely touch it (lite email / twitter checks).

Attached pic 01-31-22-42-00.png shows what the bat stats looked like with in call reboot (you see a black line), also batt % would be wrong on reboot(red & yellow part of the graph), eventually batt% would correct itself if I left the phone on long enough.

Pic 02-28-17-07-22 shows today battery usage and NO REBOOTS even after a full work day of calls while not chargin.

Pic 02-28-17-07-52 shows scrreen was on almost the entire day.

Was lovin my phone again...but this is only day 1, so I'll continue to monitor and report back.

****EDIT****

Had a reboot during my last call. Grrr, previously the reboot were almost instant, was on a 30 min call, phone off the charger battery at 59%
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
The testril.zip is more reliable for me too. I had one test call I made go to GV without ringing the phone, but I think it was a network/AT&T issue. Overall, the test ril seems more reliable.

I noticed that the testril comes from a specific ROM version and I was wondering if there is any advantage to using the RIL that comes in the ROM that our modem comes from? I have seen people say before that with android it doesn't matter, but I came from Windows Mobile where you wanted to make sure your RIL matched your modem for best battery life and performance. It doesn't seem inconceivable to me that the same could hold true in Android.
[Captivate Android Development] nyciz:
I came from WinMobile as well, so I understand your concern. With Droid, you are really looking for best reception for the area you are in, I travel for a livin and cant tell you how many times Ive had to flash a diff modem when getting to a client site.

I usually test the easiest things for a quick verification of a new modem. Using the following apps "GPS Test" (self explained...tip look at the help menu in its Setting "Clear AGPS" has saved me many a long waits and "Speed Test" ver con speed to wifi /3g as long as I get 10Mbps - 13Mbps on wifi I know its a good modem for the area I'm in.

With that said, my specific problems was the device rebooting during a call, the phone always rang and i would get all calls.

"GV" do you mean Google Voice? Is it possible that its connectivity issue? Mobile Data/ Wifi got stkechy at the time of the call? Just wonderin...
[Captivate Android Development] J0ESK0:
2nd day in a row.. ZERO calls went straight to voicemail! Bravo. This fix seems to be working amazing so far. Thank you!! :D
[Captivate Android Development] DaNaRkI:
But gVoice does not work that way. People should stop trying to blame an app for something it can't possibly effect (this applies to more then just gV here...). For in-bound calls the gVoice app does nothing, heck you don't even need the app on phone to have calls routed to your phone. People call the number given which leads to a computer/server that then calls out to your cell and any other phone you have the gVoice number linked to. For voice mail all the app does is change the settings in dialer>settings>voice mail settings. You can change those yourself.

For out-bound calls all gVoice does is take your desired number, call up the gVoice hub and input the desired number so that the hub redirects you to who you want.

If there was a problem with gVoice it would be a computer/server problem at the hub that all calls are being routed through. Something google would quickly find and fix.

Now if the app worked like the site and we could do VoIP with it then there might be a chance to blame gVoice, but it does not because google knows your using the app on a phone so there is no reason for it to use VoIP when it can use the actual calling system which is better suited to the task.

- - - - -

@ THS members - is there any reason for those who didn't have the missed calls issues to flash the ril or not flash it? Is there any chance that it might mess up things for those who were fine? (i.e. "working" phones test it to make sure nothing breaks after this change is implemented in a future build)
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
I just downloaded "Camera ICS" from the market (free); "Camera ICS+" is $0.99.

I'm liking it a lot better than the stock one and it works just as great.

Not a lot of differences UI wise but it has great extra features:

*Silent Mode

*Color Effects

*Several options for the Volume buttons (my favorite feature)

*Increase/decrease JPEG quality

*It feels snappier, although start-up time is about the same

*And it's configurable from the lock screen

Over its an improvement and worth a look if your a camera guy.
[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
While I appreciate the mention, all of the real credit goes to Pawitp and the other devs who serve up this awesomeness. I just test the stuff and report my findings.

I'm glad to hear that your issues have gotten better.
[Captivate Android Development] mbonus:
Have not had the straight to vm issue show up since I flashed riltest.zip.

Possibly unrelated, but my Bluetooth headset has now started acting flakey with connection issues and/or ability to play audio. Sometimes it will work for calls but no audio and vice versa. Reboot gets it working again for a while.

I have also never been able to have this ics rom work with my car's Bluetooth (phone only).

All minor issues, this has been a great rom.

Y'all don't understand the getprop error in CWM do you? It is reading your current build.prop of your ROM, if you're on any of the other DEV captivate builds it won't work because they didn't change the build prop...

So just flash CM7 or MIUI first and then flash over to this ICS! No need for stock...
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
Tried to take a shortcut by flashing CM7 from alpha 8 but I got the same error so going back to stock is necessary for me.

Installed this from CM7 stable on captivate i896. This ROM is very NICE!!!

Everything works extremely well. I tested

my A2DP bluetooth headset,

camera,

wifi,

3G / HSPA,

GPS,

everything works.

Syncing works with google account.

I have not found any issues yet.

ADOBE FLASH support will be added at a later date so do not be surprised when it does not work.
