I am having that issue too. Well, almost. The phone does charge (about phone|status shows charging), but with the car home app running, the phone doesnt detect it is charging, so none of the power management features kick in (the os thinks it is on battery instead of line power). Very strange, only noticed it with build 16.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkiddMark:
I was having the same issue, and even flashing to CM7 wasn't fixing it for me. I could not get back to a CM9 rom.

Here is what I managed to figure out.

The kernel that got flashed with ICSSGS appears to be an I9000 based kernel.

Which is apparently compatible with the I897 device. Makes sense.

As a result, the only CM7 build I could reflash overtop of ICSSGS was a GalaxyS version.

The version checking code of the CM7 and CM9 roms appears to be quite a bit more strict.

Rather than the Captivate version I'd been running prior, I could only flash CM7 for the GalaxyS.

Every time I tried to flash the Captivate CM7, I'd get that same error you see.

But, the GalaxyS CM7 was still causing the check error when trying to flash CM9.

What fixed it for me was to flash the I897 Glitch Kernel from within CWM.

Then, I re-booted back into CWM, and flashing CM7 for the Captivate once again worked.

Finally, flashing to CM9 build16. Lastly, I re-flash the Glitch Kernel since it appears to be more stable on my device.

In short.. what It appeared to be was a I9000<->I897 Kernel issue and the built-in reflash checks.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkfaust:
I flashed build 17 this morning and I noticed my battery life is terrible. I checked using CPUspy what was going on, turns out my phone has been running full tilt at 1 Ghz since the flash. So I re flashed, wiped everything and let it sit for a hour and checked usage again and the same thing. The only way I can get it to clock down is to change the profile setting under performance to powersave. Soon as I change it back though, it winds back up to 1 GHz again, any ideas whats causing this issue?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
Performance pushes the phone at full speed the whole time... That is why you have a problem...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkfaust:
I suppose I should've been more clear, under the performance tab I changed it to powersave and it clocked itself down to 100 MHz and made the phone really sluggish. If I changed it to either conservative or ondemand it would end up staying at 1000 MHz and never went back down to I believe the default of 200 MHz.

I think I figured it out though, the only process that was running was the media scan from boot, I think it never ended up completing so it caused the phone to run full all the time. So I force closed them and it ended idling where it is supposed to.

Brightness adjustments

I have been getting quite a bit of screen flicker using automatic brightness levels. (all stock!) Has anyone been successful finding a combination of settings that seems to work for them? Mostly, the screen tends to dim too much (and randomly) whether conditions are bright or dark. I'll even settle for just a guide to the brightness settings if someone can point me in a direction.

While we're at it, what are some vivid color tuning/gamma settings?

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
I've had a few issues like that myself, and I actually never looked for a fix, I just manually set the brightness myself.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildnux:
This is my personal opinion but i find my screen more vibrant using display tuned for "ui" in samsung galaxy settings, and with a value of -5 on gamma (rgb).

Also the auto brightness settings was always giving me either very bright and very dark and was not changing brightness instantaneosly. I had to lock the screen and turn it back on to change or it will take a long time to change the brightness. But i have not had that issue since build 16. It kinda stays relatively bright with automatic on.

Btw, i used to make the notification widget brightness toggle to toggle between auto, 50%, 70% and 100%, so i would just toggle it from there if the brightness is too low.

Apps and Privacy

There has been an ever-increasing number of apps which want access to private information (like call logs, location, and contact information) without needing it to run the application. I'm talking about games and not apps which require such information like Anti-virus and such. Will we ever have a permission manager a la MIUI on this ROM? I understand that many developers work in concert, so I am wondering why most ROM's are not created with safeguards in place to protect private information. I am aware that I am not in the MIUI Q&A section, but I feel this is an issue that all ROM's should consider in order to protect private information. I know that I don't have to install apps which ask for this information if I don't want to give up my information, but it seems that every app nowadays asks for these permissions and it would be a shame to continue as if there were nothing wrong with compromising private information to play a game.
