I have noticed something. In XDA premium I get a lot of lag when scrolling through forums. Is it the from or is it the apk? Also I'm on Build 11 with glitch v14, and I have been experiencing data issues in both wifi, 3g, and 4g. I know there has been talk before about this I just wasn't sure it was in mobile data as well as wifi. I haven't had many of the other problems that have been discussed except for laggy responses in most apps and in os itself.

Believe me I am not trying to beat this ROM up because I absolutely love it. I've been here since build 3. I am just starting to wonder if this wonderful phone just might not be able to handle this version of Android. I hope so cause I love this phone. I will retire it in April for an upgrade but will keep it for dev or donate it to a dev.

But anyways just had those thoughts. Keep up good work.
[Captivate Android Development] J0ESK0:
To save you some trouble from getting beat up yourself on these forums.. you should be posting these questions in the Glitch thread. If you change the kernel, all your problems/issues are not going to being addressed here, simple as that. Wish you the best of luck figuring out your issues because I'm on stock Build 11 and am experiencing no data problems or xda premium problems at all.
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
OR the other option is to bring it to the teamhacksung ICS Q&A http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1367586
[Captivate Android Development] Jesterdtm:
Just curious. I did a thread search so not sure if these have been asked already, but didn't see it.

I don't know what order or priority you are working the CM settings in.. But I am curious when you will add the feature "Quiet Hours" or separate notifications from ring tone?

Also the add-ons for the dialer?
[Captivate Android Development] alphahere:
Just tried this with ics and have done with cm7 in the past. You will end up in a bootloop with recovery. Had to odin a stock rom without a bootloader and then reinstall cm7. Anyway you might as well go back to stock to spare the extra work.

Good luck!

Until that handy feature returns to CM, you can probably find some free app to remove your other girlfriends' numbers from your call log, or, if you've got adb handy, you could nuke them with a one-liner.

Assuming "Jenny's" number is 212-555-5309 ... :)

$ adb shell sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db "delete from calls where number=2125555309"
[Captivate Android Development] pawitp:
That is what the main CM team do not what teamhacksung do. You (or anyone else) can always speed it up by doing it yourself and submitting the code to gerrit. Remember, "No ETA".

[Captivate Android Development] pawitp:
A pre-alpha ROM, by definition, cannot be expected to be "properly tested". Even if it's in a later stage, our resources for developing/testing are still severely limited. We're a small group of developers working in our free-time working on our devices from scratch, so you can't compare us to OEM-tested ROMs and ROMs based on small modifications from that.

Not really. AFAIK, Cyanogen himself doesn't play a direct role in development of the aries/captivate. We know the bugs, we just don't have all the time/resource to work on it. I'd guess that things would've progressed similarly without you reporting.

Some of these bugs we can confirm and some are just due to the fact that the ROM is in heavy development. But you must also accept that some bugs are device specific as there are slight variations in the hardware of the devices. Samsung has successfully accounted for them (hopefully), but we can't because we don't have all the devices/infos that Samsung does. We appreciate bug reports (preferably short and concise without all the drama), but we may not reply to them due to save time (want us to spend time fixing bugs or writing posts)? Also, there is no one working specifically on the Captivate at the moment (atinm is busy and I use the I9000).

The port on this device is much further along in comparison to most devices... Quit your *****ing
[Captivate Android Development] tiuk:
I've seen a few others post about touch screen issues, but I don't know if this is unique to the captivate or not. My touchscreen has been extremely buggy with all ICS builds. It is most apparent in games (Angry Birds, Worms, World of Goo), but I have experienced glitches in other apps. It seems to register phantom presses, which could result in a button being tapped, a character in a game moving in one direction constantly, forced selection in an app, etc. As I said, this has been the case with every teamhacksung ICS build (haven't used any others, came from CM7), and happens with the stock kernel. I never had touchscreen problems on CM7, and I've thoroughly cleaned my screen several times to ensure it isn't related to that. I really think there's a driver issue here.

On a different topic, the op mentions having to flash twice to go from ICS back to cm7, once from ICS recovery and once from cm7's. If this is done, should the partitions all be wiped, or is simply flashing over sufficient? (I assume if it's the later it would be because cm7's scripts handle the necessary wiping)

[Captivate Android Development] kataishin:
Nah I'm not complaining or comparing you at all, and as a matter of fact no he doesn't deal with Captivate but Cyanogen did personally send my logcats on to the corresponding developing team and the stable version wasn't very far behind after sending my many logcats that I was constantly sending to him so yeah...

With that said, I'm not busy and I love testing roms. What do you need? :)
[Captivate Android Development] pawitp:
The stable version came because it's CM's schedule, not because something improved in the build.

(no, more testers won't help us, we need real developers who can actually identify and fix bugs)
[Captivate Android Development] stewtang:
You go girl!
[Captivate Android Development] Smasher816:
I am good with Java and C, and have free time for programming.

I would love to help fix problems and add new features, however the the device tree is sadly closed.
[Captivate Android Development] pawitp:
The device tree for CM7 is open, fix a bug or two there and submit it to gerrit. Then you can contact us and gain access to the code.
[Captivate Android Development] Smasher816:
Alright thanks.

Brb. Need to find something to fix...
[Captivate Android Development] pawitp:
Look in the CM7 thread or KANG thread. Most likely, the fix will be applicable to ICS too. Or alternatively, fix a bug in the java code (like sometimes wrong SMS selected for forwarding when not selecting the last SMS in the thread). You don't need the device tree to compile java code (just compile for generic).
[Captivate Android Development] neophyte2008:
Has anyone figured out a way to connect to ad-hoc network on ICS??...the modified wpa supplicant is not working.

tried searching, but none of the bottom buttons function. any help or tips on how to fix?

i tried RC1, with the glich kernel, and the ics.samsung full.zip as well..

I would recommend a bootloader free flash to stock, then start again. Happy New Year Everyone!

Its the kernels fault, its in our thread. Please leave bug posts related to our kernel in our thread. Unless you are saying it doesn't work on the stock kernel either.

I had to may tabs open. so far this one is great! so fast.
[Captivate Android Development] kmakiki:
Well, since no-one else has said anything about it yet, I'll talk about my Build 12 experience:

HUGE improvement over 11. Launcher has stopped force closing, as have random apps. Yellow flashing going into recovery is done. Galaxy S and Trebuchet settings are within the regular settings, which is awesome, and makes it feel so much more Cyanogen-esque :D. Also, miraculously, my USB mass storage started working finally! Definitely a HUGE build, flash away ladies and gentlemen!

Oh, and also, it killed my Gapps and reset my launcher (have to put apps and widgets back), but flashing gapps fixer got me back to the right state. Thanks so much devs, great great work and a good New Years present!
[Captivate Android Development] dabels1961:
Was waiting to give time to set everything up and get a feel for it.

1. My home buttons at the bottom of the phone are responding better.

2. Apps I have tried so far are all working as they should.

3. Love all the new settings for trebuchet and such i n settings.

4. Things are snappy.

5. Looked to me during boot up the puzzle pieces look a little out of focus.

6. Auto brightness is working for me.

7. Compass is working and GPS works well for me now as well.

thanks Devs! Happy new year all.
[Captivate Android Development] yuhenyo:
Hi. I'm on CM7 now but I want to try and flash this. I realize that in the OP, it says to flash from the recovery of cm7. If ever I'd want to go back, is just by flashing from the recovery of CM9?? THANKS!
[Captivate Android Development] gstern:
Flash twice, once to get to cm7's recovery, and again to get cm7 working. Btw- that's also in the op.
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Anyone know if Gapps fixer has changed at all. Does it get updated? I'm just curious because I don't want to redownload it, or end up with multiple on my SD card if it's unnecessary.
[Captivate Android Development] zmore:
FWIW, I flashed (build12 + gapps7.1(w/o rebooting inbetween)) over (build11 + gapps6 + fixer), and it booted up without my gapps account. Then reflashed (b12 + gapps7.1 + fixer) and still didn't have gapps, so, 'had' to wipe and reinstall, and now all is good after a TiBu restore.

Notes:

1) I love that USB mass storage mode is now the default(!) vs MTP

2) Confirm that GPS is working in Maps again

3) [EDIT: autobright is working; just had to wait a little longer after booting up before toggling]

4) Haven't encountered any ForceCloses in Trebuchet or SystemUI or other yet (will update later if I do)

5) SNAPPY as build9 is (build 10 and 11 lagged), especially in certain games that used to FC after 5-10mins of play.

I flashed build 12 with gapps 7.1+ fixer and I keep being offline in Google Talk. I appear offline and all my contacts appear offline, is anyone experiencing this?
[Captivate Android Development] SirFunk:

[Captivate Android Development] umanko:
just installed BUILD 12 , its fast , responsive and stable . Thx 4 it gr8 work teamhacksung .
[Captivate Android Development] whyareyou:
I have not had any sync issues, so, I keep installing 5.3 gapps even with new builds. Everything works on Build 12 too. Only my launcher shortcuts got wiped when updating to build 12.
[Captivate Android Development] zmore:
Just the normal wipedata/factory reset.

The md5sum hasn't changed, so, no. For future reference, it's good practice to keep a copy of the md5sum on your own system as a foo.zip.md5sum, so you can compare later.

Loaded Build 12 on i897 with Gapps 7.1 on top of Build 11.

GPS is fixed. Response is snappy! Excellent build. No problems found after running through the basics.
[Captivate Android Development] CougarBroker:
excellent build, everything works that I have tried. Battery is awesome so far, losing about 4%	per hour while sitting,
[Captivate Android Development] b-eock:
That is bad battery, let it calibrate :P
[Captivate Android Development] Mauijpm:
I just flashed Build 12 and Gapps V 7.1 over Build 11. It seems that all of my prior issues have gone away. Scrolling is infinitely better. Scrolling through Apps or the Gallery quickly used to lead to a FC. That is no longer the case. The build is as other people have mentioned, very smooth and snappy. This is an excellent build. Truly exquisite work Teamhacksung. Thank you for all of your efforts. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] mcnutty:
Pretty generic statement there... With the amount of stuff that I have updating in the background, 4% per hour is pretty good.

Been holding off updating since build 9 here. Updated to build 12, flashed 5.3 gapps, wiped cache and dalvik, and everything if working great so far.

one question though: has wifi direct ever been fully implemented? It can be made visible, but connections to it don't show up and settings for it can't be changed. Probably a future thing but thought i would ask.

[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
I have a persistent "low on space. Phone storage is getting low" notification that takes me to a screen that shows 250 MB of 1.6 GB used.

Occurred during a batch TiBu restore. Still there after reboot. TiBu restores fail after several apps.
[Captivate Android Development] everest.deth:
Wipe cache.
[Captivate Android Development] airtower:
how exactly does one go about doing that?
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
still have the low space notification after cache wipes.

Seems TiBu won't complete batch restores as a result.
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
Usually this message is due to low space on /datadata. Try moving apps to sdcard, or figure out if a specific app is using too much space in /datadata.
[Captivate Android Development] singlebeam:
Everything cleared up for me with Build 12. Thanks devs - great work.

I'm still having the unresponsive lockscreen issue. Can anyone else confirm this or should I reflash?

Is there some way to ensure I put apps on the volume TiBu calls internal and is 2.01 GB large? I don't want this to become dead space.

I followed OP instructions coming from GB i9000 boot loaders on a i897 ROM. Doubt that matters but FYI.

That's simply how much Google has implemented. Galaxy Nexus only has that much as well.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
Open the installer zip, goto metadata> com> google > android open the s riot file in a text editor and delete all the asserts at the top. E.g. Everything before the 'show progress'.

Be careful as this means the update isn't verifying you have the correct build for the right phone.
[Captivate Android Development] zmore:
Indeed. Best build so far (surpassing build9 (4.0.1)).

$500 - Summer 2010 launch-day off-contact price.

$285 - New @ ebay ($309 for ATT-locked) (strange that locked > unlocked)

$225 - Refurb @ ebay ($200 ATT-locked)

$155 - Used @ ebay ($120 ATT-locked)

The cappy has held up really well as the flagship of yesteryear (though not as well as an iPhone). I got mine on contract @ Amazon for only $20 in September 2010, iirc. Will be upgrading to a SGS3 (if not 3D) or the Note(2) by summer/fall. Would've had the upgrade itch long ago if not for CyanogenMod breathing new life into it. *highfive*

Thanks pawitp! Running gtg's unnamed ROM on my wife's gs2, and it has additional options for wifi direct and wasn't sure how much of that was ported from AOSP vs. "added functionality".

Yeah, I really want to upgrade to the SGS2, but I've gotten used to ICS on my cappy and I don't want to go back to GB lol. I'll probably just upgrade it and sit on MIUI until they get a working port =\

I get the lockscreen freezing randomly as well. I've even disabled the lockscreen in the security settings, and it still gives me trouble waking up when I push the power button. It hasn't happened very many times, but it's still there. Full wipe install also.

I'm a road warrior, so I charge in the car throughout the day. I have 3 push email accounts, Facebook sync, Twitter feeds, lots of RSS feeds being synced, and sometimes play meeting recordings while I drive.

Thanks your work guys, really appreciate it.

I just noticed that changing the picture size in the camera causes it to force close. Just tossing it out there to see if anyone else has/is experiencing the same thing. Everything else seems great so far.

[Captivate Android Development] kusabikuri:
Was on Build 11 with the broken GPS and restored back to Build 9. Just got Build 12 and GPS problem still persists for me. I had Yelp find stuff near me just before I upgraded to 12 and it worked. Now it can't find my location.
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Yeah, I'm not saying my battery is better. I've never really had a chance to test it. I'm always charging too (work from home). I also have 3 emails, and I don't do anything to save battery (full brightness all the way).

Still, although the battery isn't worth complaining over, I don't think it's brag worthy, or "good" either. Should be able to get 2-3 days on standby, and I did before going onto MIUI and then this ROM. Obviously I think it's worth it, though. :)

[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
apps that are available at their latest versions on the market are not included in google apps package. the only reason gmail and youtube are included right now is because they aren't on the market yet. once they are, they will be removed (just like how gmail wasn't included in gapps for CM7). ask any user in Germany about how they have to deal with not having had access to gmail without "other means" of getting the APK for well over a year now (GMail isn't available in Germany).

Will keep tinkering with it though....I'd love to get my hands on these new improvements.
