this

Im not trying to be rude so don't take this the wrong way but in the instructions it does say to install from internal memory, and that you may need to flash twice. I also had some issues with my sd card saying in was corrupted or blank but only when I installed the card with the phone on. I had to turn the phone off then install the sd card and turn the phone on to get it to work right. may not be the same for everyone but for me I always have to flash twice when coming from all other roms. just throwing this in but ROM manager won't let me flash anything successfully so I have to boot into recovery manually and do everything from there. Good luck

Is your phone an i9000? If it's a captivate then flash the ROM, go back into recovery and wipe everything again including going into mounts and storage and wiping everything but sd or emmc then flash again then flash gapps and reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] billyjed:
Flash the glitch kernel then reflash the ROM. That should do the trick.
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
CM is fully compatible with the Eclair/Froyo bootloaders. Most people have moved on to the i897 GB bootloaders now because A) they are made for our phone, B) they are the latest fully supported version, C) there is an issue in the old bootloaders that is fixed in the GB bootloaders (Kaik has mentioned it in a post), and D) the i897 bootloaders will work with ALL ROMs that work on the i897. Due to reason D, you can do a 1 time bootloader flash/update to the official i897 GB bootloaders from Samsung and then never have any reason to ever flash bootloaders again.

If you are worried about bricking, flash a Odin package (without bootloaders) to official KB1 (or KB2) Froyo, and then use Kies mini to update to KK4. This way, if you get a brick, it was while applying the official update in the officially supported way. In this unlikely event, you may be able to get Samsung to replaced your bricked phone because you were just following their instructions.

Also, the i9000 GB bootloaders change the button combos, the i897 GB bootloaders do not change the button combos.

Bug report: The Gallery app usually force closes when you try to edit a photo (including cropping to use as contact photo). I got it to work a few times too, it seems to be sporadic. Can anyone else reproduce? I don't see it listed on the known issues page. I'm using the most recent Gapps downloaded from Rom Manager.

ExcelenT!!

Excelent rom!

I'm loving it.

Very cool visual, nice, fast, but, didin't appears battery percentage, even if you mark the option, and didn't foud the native file explorer, did ICS have one?...

I was coming from apex 12.4, and love that rom too, but ICS is much much batter than GB!

Two questions:

1-How do i restore my sms?

2-I using glich kernel to Over Clock i just need to change the clock value at the maximum cpu frequency in performance?

or did i have to change oder things?
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
Haven't had a single issue editing or cropping photos in gallery. Clear cache to see if that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
Can't change to percentage yet, it's place holder. They are some mods in the theme section I believe.

Glitch kernel questions belong in the glitch thread.
[Captivate Android Development] Malorkus:
After playing around a bit, it might only be happening for photos stored "in the cloud" via Picasa. (though it displays those photos fine, it just won't edit them). Anyway, it's easy enough to avoid those for now and store important photos locally. It may be a generic ICS bug for all I know.
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
I hadn't tried to crop or edit any photos from cloud. I just tested a few photos and didn't have a problem. But of course it was only a couple so it doesn't mean much. I'll keep playing with it to see if I can get a FC.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
I was able to crop a photo that was stored on picasa. I'm using the lastest gapps, if that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
Not sure if this is a bug or it's just for me but I can't make conference call. Everytime I try it, it says conference call fail. Can someone else try making a conference call and see if it's working for you?
[Captivate Android Development] bondarun:
I came across 2 problem till now..

1. When i get a Call, the Ring does not stay in the center. It stays at the bottom and when i move it to the right to attend the call, it goes back again..

2. Just once my Messaging App didnt work. It just opens and close at the same moment.. Had to reboot once to fix it...
[Captivate Android Development] thangphysk48:
How about hardware video decoder in ICS, I think it has problem, when I play video with black background (ex firework clip), it become speckled. I havent meet that problem on GB rom. Any suggestion for this case.
[Captivate Android Development] DARKCHYLDX101:
Just flashed this yesterday with latest gapps and gapps fixer and new modem. Everything seems to be working fine. Noticeable lag when scrolling in browser and other apps. Loading takes more time than usual. Facebook sync not working. Could be used as a daily driver. 64% battery life after 8 hours. Can't wait to see everything working. I'm liking it so far!
[Captivate Android Development] bondarun:
10hr 30min Still 70% remaining..

Ive tried every ICS rom available and Ive always came back to this rom. IDK what brings me back but it always manages to bring me back. Great work! Can't wait for build 17!
[Captivate Android Development] ptesmoke:

[Captivate Android Development] bondarun:
Can anyone give me stock kernel file?

Am getting Wifi sleep death.. :(
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
The attached kernel was put out by pawitp to address this issue, if you want the stock one from build 16, just Wipe Cache/Dalvik cache and reflash the rom.
[Captivate Android Development] voldomart13:
Any way to get a solid status bar so that its not transparent?
[Captivate Android Development] SteveB2175:
Hello all,

Just flashed this rom and it looks nice so far.

I've tried to read up, but please don't flame me for not reading all 600 pages :D

I don't have the market place app, how do I get it ?

I see on page one a note about downloading Google apps from Recovery mod, but I don't understand.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
You have to read a lot,

There is a gapps file in the OP same place from where you downloaded the ROM, get the file and flash/install it the same way you installed this rom.

Go to recovery either by long pressing the power button / Select Reboot / Recovery, or power off your phone, Press power button and BOTH your volume buttons together and let go of the power button when you see the bootscreen, while holding the power buttons. you will enter recovery mode.

From there just install the Gapps zip you downloaded.
[Captivate Android Development] bondarun:
Is the Kernel fast and good for day by day use??

I dont do that much gaming in my Cappy
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
Yes when i ran this rom, it was stock and ran without any lag and with amazing battery life, infact the best out there.
[Captivate Android Development] SteveB2175:
Thanks for your help. Got it by clicking on the link in the "older builds" section.

All looks good except that my Exchange calendar isn't syncing. Hmmmm I'll start looking at that....
[Captivate Android Development] bondarun:
Thanks for the Support bro.. :)

Now am on the stock kernel..

Lets see how much i get from this..
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
Also give the rom a few charge cycles to get good battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] vileladelima:
some questions

Did this rom have a native file explorer, i've didn't found it and have to buy one into market.

Any one knows how do i restore my sms? (i'm coming from apex 12.4)

Thanks!:D
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
SMS restore i don't know, but there is no file explorer included.

You can download OI file manager from market, it's free and that's what has been included in CM roms.

Just wondering, the "bug report," folder has about 850.X Mb of logs;

1. Normal?

2. Can I delete it if I make a backup of it on my computer?

3. Do I even Need to back it up?
[Captivate Android Development] energyracing:
I just had a quick question out of curiosity.

First of all, love this ROM. Best ICS I've tried on my cappy. Reliable, fast, end of story.

Secondly, when you say this is CM9 alpha and this is "to be CM9", does that mean at some point in development, it will be picked up by CM and become an official CM release, or will it always be a ported version of CM9?

I'm good with flashing and all that jazz, just not the "politics" (best word I can think of) behind how a ROM goes from port to alpha to official supported release.

Thanks to anyone who can answer this for me!

P.S. Where's build 17? I'm itching for a new version to flash haha.
[Captivate Android Development] wash23:
Hope someone answers this for you and me.:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
have you tried power amp?
[Captivate Android Development] voldomart13:
Any news on build 17?
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
Yes. I just heard a report a few minutes ago that you should not ask for ETAs, and they will release another build when/if it's finished. It sounded credible.
[Captivate Android Development] voldomart13:
My bad I forgot..freakin nub move I'm sorry...
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
are there any screenshots of this rom? or is it vanilla ics?
[Captivate Android Development] theyurtingyeti:
Where'd you get that info? Are there new sites now... I skimmed the OP, but nothing jumped out at me.
[Captivate Android Development] Malorkus:
OK, I still have crashes or other weirdness from editing Picasa-synced photos. If I begin at a contact and select a Picasa Gallery photo to use for the contact photo, Gallery force closes right after I select the photo. OTOH if I start in Gallery and choose a photo, it displays just fine, but if I select "edit" from the context menu it says "Photo cannot be loaded" and displays a blank screen. Nobody else has this issue with Picasa web album sync folders?
[Captivate Android Development] nbell13:
For all intents and purposes, this IS CM9. It's just still considered an "alpha build" by teamhacksung.
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
Vanilla as can be!
[Captivate Android Development] nbell13:
Not quite. It has plenty of features from CM7 baked in.
[Captivate Android Development] RootTheMachine:

[Captivate Android Development] juanzr1:
what's the difference between this rom and the android open kang rom build 27
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
Both are Aosp roms, this is made by Team Hacksung and is the latest iteration of CM rom. Aokp is build by developer Romann and others called Team Kang.

Right now, Aokp has more tweaking options than this rom, but sooner or later CM9 nightly builds will start and then this rom will be updated daily just like CM7.

What are people experiencing for boot times on b16? I'm on b16 kernel as well and my boot times are upwards of one min.

If this is not a b16 issue what can I do to shorten boot time?
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
That's normal for this rom I believe, mine is also 1 minute. Has been since B14, I never worry about boot times as I only reboot once a week on average.
[Captivate Android Development] theyurtingyeti:
Good to know, thanks.

OK noob question. I flashed cwn via Odin prior to ice install. So I get this from going. From manager won't pick up cwn being installed. How do I get market and Gmail on this?
[Captivate Android Development] vercro:
Did you install the gapps package after flashing the rom?
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
no didn't see that. i see the 7.1 gapps file, do I flash via cwm or odin?
[Captivate Android Development] RCDuke:
You flash the Google apps package via cwm.
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
ok got the gapps. two other questions. coming from miui i noticed the colour was crisp and resolution looked fantastic. now prior to miui (stock gb) and now on this build the wallpaper tends to look grainy. so is this a colour addon of sort (flashable?)

loving this build, but if I ever have to go back, will a 1 click to gb do what I need?

also since I came off of miui, the folder still exists on the sd card despite a stock reflash. can i delete this folder?

Exchange - Wakelock

Running 16.

I'm using exchange email and I'm getting Exchange/Wakelock as running processes using ~55-60% of the battery stats. It's dying in less than 4 hours. I've removed the account and re-added it, no help. I've re-flashed 16/Gapps 2-24 and still no help.

I'm going to stay using push so are their any ideas on how to prevent that wakelock on exchange email?

I was previously running on v14 and it was working great.
[Captivate Android Development] wildnux:
Alpha builds are early builds - meaning they are not fully cooked. This is a stage of development. It will go to beta builds, then RC1 / RC2 ( release candidates) and then the final build and nightlies. The final build is that build which the developers release for general users. What you are using right now (alpha builds) are those which are for testing purposes and believe me this heck of a alpha build with this much stability and performance. Think what you will be using when its fully cooked!

[Captivate Android Development] RootTheMachine:
Probably this, except nightlies are the next step

Sent from my CM9 ICS i897 Captivate
[Captivate Android Development] wildnux:
Correct me if i am wrong but AFAIK nightlies are the builds that are synced with the upstream servers to auto build with the upstream changes and i thought that is done after a build is stable.

Nobody else have a problem with NO bootanimation? I flashed build 17, and when I rebooted my screen was just black until the lockscreen shows up. I had been planning to try the custom bootscreen mentioned above anyways... so I copied that file, but same issue.

I reflashed the rom/gapps, etc again, but same issue. It doesn't even look like my phone is on, but I can touch the screen, causing the soft keys to light up, and that's it... until I see the lockscreen (rom is loaded), at which point my phone works fine.

Very strange.
[Captivate Android Development] dabels1961:
Strange, on 17 I have no boot animation what so ever. I get the art screen and then it goes blank, freaked me out at first thought my phone had died, I have reflashed and all still no animation.

There's a setting (think it's under system settings) for disabling the boot animation, check that. Sometimes flashing new builds applies new default settings.
[Captivate Android Development] radicaleggnog:
Flashed B15 to B17 and Tunein (tuneine pro) is working swimmingly for me. You could try going in and physically deleting the folder from your phone using a file browser and see if that does it. Apps leave crap even when you uninstall them, and maybe that could be the cause.

Also, tunein pro is $0.49 right now if anyone is looking for a good radio app!
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Ahh, that's it. I must have played with the setting back when it wasn't functional...

Thanks.

Edit: Having trouble finding it, if someone can confirm it's location. I have a vague recollection of testing it quite a while back, but for some reason can't find it again. I've checked under 'system'.

Edit2: Still didn't find it, but managed to fix it by deleting /data/property/persist.sys.nobootanimation

I'm assuming you're talking about the option I just mentioned above... I hadn't mentioned anything about that option in my original post, so I wouldn't have known that the 'point' of anything was.
[Captivate Android Development] wash23:
Thanks for your input. It is now working. I rebooted again. Not sure if that did it. Yes, Pro is definitely worth $ .49 and now that the free version is working, I plan to upgrade. Everything I have tried on this update is working now.
