The 3rd party/market apps I have show no greater use by Android OS then past ROMs. Some even go so far as to break down what is in the Android OS group. When in doubt get second opinions :D Especially ones on info that would get wiped by Android under normal use.

You may get a very minor speed/battery/performance loss by this extra process but the good ones use what's already being provided by google/kernel. Plus you'll have extra info/data to provide to the Devs/community/yourself. When your done you simply disable or remove the app, and go back to enjoying this wonderful ROM and it's great battery life for this phone.

I might also add, it has nothing to do w/ development. When I first started w/ XDA the dev section was ONLY for development, bugs and fixes. People have no idea how to use our forum. Q&A and General are there for the naysayers.

Lets all stay on topic and post accordingly.

Thank you Kaik541 and teamhacksung, to the majority of us, you are gratefully appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
I personally feel like the problem is the feeling of self-entitlement that a lot of newer users have developed around here (not that I'm exactly a veteran of the forum). They think that the devs are here to wait around on them and solve their problems that arise as a result of their failure to read even the OP. I miss when reading the last 5 or so pages meant that you could get useful information on the development of the ROM/Kernel/whatever. Now you just have to wade through a ton of complaints about **** that was addressed in the OP.

Welcome to the "I want it now" generation.

I have worked w/ several forum admin over the months and they are always looking for people to inform them of forum abuse, it only takes a quick note to them to bring the trouble to light. In some cases they may even wipe non related posts and warn the participants.

lol....some ppl

*anywayz* has anyone that has the "on call reboot" issue been able to capture a log. Had one last night but of course wasnt capturing the log.

I usually use the following cmd on

adb logcat >phonelog.txt

then ctrl c to exit. This places the log in whatever directory you are running adb from.

while the phone is connected via the samsung usb to my pc. Any other created cmds that others use? just curious (and trying to recoup from the last 5 pgs of yakyak)

Thx
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Maybe someone could set up Tasker to launch an app that can record a log whenever they answer a call? I haven't had that issue yet, but that's probably what I would try to do. Either that, or call my house phone and leave them sitting there until it reboots while a log is being recorded in your PC.

Had my first sleep death the other night. Fortunately, for some reason I woke up an hour before my alarm usually goes off, and restarted my phone so that the alarm went off at the proper time. Other than that I've been thrilled with this rom. Haven't experienced any of the problems that most users have been complaining about.

Of course, that's sort of balanced out by the trouble I've had running it on my dad's phone. I recently upgraded it from build 11 to build 13, and had to do a complete wipe to get it to stop hanging on the boot animation. I couldn't even restore the nandroid backup I had made before attempting the update. It was very strange. Any ideas what could have caused the problem?
[Captivate Android Development] MentalDragon:
Why dont the OP's set up a new DEV Thread with invite only. I have been in one before on here. Im not sure how to go about doing this but It could keep out all the senseless conversations. Its just a thought and then just let others just see OP for Updates and then they have to ask their questions in the Q&A thread.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Yesterday, I noticed that a lot of apps (ie. launcher, Voodoo control, etc.) kept being unloaded in the background even with only 1 or 2 apps running actively. So I spontaneously decided to freeze a bunch of apps with TiBu, including the stock Music app, DSP Manager, Voice Dialer and a few others I'll never use. Android OS no longer has an abnormally high keep awake time for me (it's something like 5 minutes now after hours of the phone being unplugged). My battery life still isn't great (I'm projecting 21-33 hours of very light use with some music listening thrown in), but it's significantly better than before. With normal 3-5 hour screen on times, 12 hours is still pushing it for me.

Edit: I should also mention that I switched to the Glitch B2 kernel after my phone had a heart attack with the stock one, but this didn't seem to have any noticeable effect on battery life until I froze the apps.

You can also just flash the latest build and gapps again to get back to the stock kernel. Flashing the latest build to go back to stock kernel is standard practice in CM.

Hmm... mine didn't give me the option. Just said that it had "stopped", and I had to hit "okay".

I'm reinstalling the ROM (no wipe), as I had removed the stock browser, and installed a couple of graphic tweaks. We'll see if that happens to help.

for those of you having issues launching chrome with this rom,

you must push the lib manually;

To do that, do this:

Extract the apk (root explorer)

Find the .so files in /lib/armeabi_v7

Copy them to /data/data/com.android.chrome/lib

Make them all rwxr-xr-x

Didn't have a chance to try this, but it installed great of off a fresh install of the ROM. No errors at all, even the first time.
[Captivate Android Development] zmore:
It works. Previously I've used an app called "ADB Wireless", but the new ADB over Network developer option works just as well, although it's not as user-friendly (as in: it doesn't tell you how to connect, although I happen to already know my phone's static lan address).

e.g.:

$ adb connect captivate
connected to captivate:5555
$ adb devices
List of devices attached
captivate:5555	device
googletv:5555	device
$ adb -s captivate:5555 logcat | grep -i chrome
<snip>

Easy to keep a logcat going to file and just Ctrl-C after your phone crashes while on a phone call. Wireless ADB is great (as long as your connection is stable).

[misc edit: and, yeah, chrome is crashing here due to missing libs. I don't care enough to manually fix this. uninstalled for now]

[Captivate Android Development] Smasher816:
Here is some more logcat info - http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html#logcat

I find the -d option nice as it dumps when done, instead of continuing to show new stuff.

The -C option makes it colored, on supporting terminals, which is nice to spot errors.

The -c option clears the log, use it before the error to make the log smaller.

The -f option write to a file, same as piping it with > though.

The -s option can be combined with filters to only show wanted information in a log.

Ex: "logcat -d -s AndroidRuntime:E" will output Errors by AndroidRuntime (App Crashes) and then return.

Hope this can help some people, and add to the development reports.

[Captivate Android Development] omriasta:
To answer my own question, this is not like datafix.zip performance is much better for those with bad NAND

I will point out that it failed the first attempt so I was pretty happy I had a nandroid backup from before my attempt. Second try went without a hitch and performance is great! Have been able to install tons of more apps.

Definitely should be in CM9 by default!
[Captivate Android Development] nyciz:
Really dumb ? but where did you rename your to "captivate" ? The Development Id isnt editable to me even after turning on ADB over Network .

I think I'm having issue cuz I using other ppl networks (hotel / client's wifi) not sure if port 5555 is opened. Any info you can share on what you config'd to get the adb over network would be appreciated.

[Captivate Android Development] Thnikk:

[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Not sure what the datafix.zip does. If it just uses the /data partition on the 2GB moviNAND for /data/data, then the workaround I linked shouldn't slow down your device as much since it uses both the moviNAND and the faster oneNAND (where the /datadata partition is located by default on Cyanogenmod ROM's). I wouldn't expect the datafix.zip to be the same thing, as I haven't found any way to run the needed script using only busybox.

You can download any i897 one click stock package to fix it as well, as long as it includes a kernel with cwm injected.

[Captivate Android Development] zmore:
The device is only named 'captivate' in my case because I'm in control of the local network (using DNSMasq on my router running DD-WRT), but in general what you'd do is connect directly to your assigned DHCP IP that you can find under settings > about phone > status

(It's not advisable to be using ADB over wireless on foreign wireless networks, btw; ADB has no security, so anyone could scan & connect to your rooted phone and have their way with it.)

Lol, have there way with my phone??? Thats has to be the quota of the yr. Hmm wonder if I could use that to get out of work 1 day, cant come in, my phone was date raped!

Seriously though, thanks for the waring but I'm aware of it. I'm going to have to test at home cuz when I connect my phone & pc to my client's wifi, I keep getting

"C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb connect 175.2.5.125

unable to connect to 175.2.5.125:5555"

**********edit#1 2-8-2012********

Not sure why (see edit#2) , but I just tried it again at my client's site, I ensured the following:

-pc was on wifi network as the phone (they got a bunch of broadcasted SSIDs)

-grabbed the phones ip from either settings > about phone > status OR settings > Wi-Fi > Menu Key > Advanced

-ensure that ADB Over Network is enabled and run the cmd above .

Thx

**********edit#2 2-8-2012********

I changed the wifi connection to different SSID on both pc & phone.

Also while connected via adb over ntework, I rebooted my phone to see if DHCP IP would be honored by the phone / rtr. And it is, so even though the phone rebooted, you can be running "logcat" or "adb devices" and it still responds. I will def be doing this tonite when I talk to my girl, so hopefully I have a useful log of the "reboot in call" tonite {freakin finally}....lol!

Whats strange is immediately after the rboot, adb over network remains on (I went straight there after reboot and the opt was checked. A few mins later (~10mins) I couldn't list the device and checked the "adb over netowrk" and it was unchecked.

The note in settings says its NOT suppose to survive a reboot so I guess its just not immediately that its unchecked. Thought I just mentioned it, I dont think it a bug/issue.

random reboot

Have had two random reboots while not in a call over the past day or so. One time was while I was using the Talk app. I had just set my phone down and minutes later I noticed the boot animation. The second time was at work and I was speaking with a coworker with my phone on the table when it just rebooted itself. Don't remember what the battery was at for the first time (guessing 40% ish) but the second time was 16-18%. Anyone else get this?
[Captivate Android Development] nyciz:
There are previous posts that discuss reboots, i believe its was with the min freq of the cpu but search as there are many post around it. My issue is specifically with while on a call.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
The kernel reverter is cwm flashable so it is easier than using odin or heimdall just to reset the phone so it thinks it is a i897 rather than a i9000. So it works to get you past the get.prop error seen when coming from hellraised roms or roms based off of i9000, or kernels that make your phone read as a i9000. Really easy to use and it wiped out any scripts that other roms/kernels may have placed inside init.d folder so it is clean before going to cm7.
