My Captivate hangs after reboot.

Hi,

This is my third or fourth try to install CM9. Each time it ends up the same - I have many force close messages on various applications, even on phone, I decide to reboot to solve the problem but my phone stays in boot forever.

I installed cm-9.0.0-captivatemtd.zip after wiping data, cache and dalvik cache.

The installation ended with out problems, I installed the Google applications (gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip).

After I configured my Google account I tried to restore my applications using titanium backup.

Some where in the process of restoring the titanium backup hangs for hours. I shut it down and tried to restore the remaining apps manually, but unfortunately it keeps hanging. After couple of shut downs of titanium backup, I begin to receive the FC messages, especially from process called "acore" and everything stops working.

The last time I installed, I decided to let it to download the apps from market automatically and then restore the data only. But not all apps DLed, so I had to restore them manually using titanium backup. At the beginning all worked fine, until it happened again - I received many FCs messages and couldn't dial or receive calls so I rebooted.

Now my phone hangs in boot again.

Does anyone experience something similar?

What can I do to resolve this problem?

Thanks a lot.

Uri.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gromlakh:
I would assume you have a large number of apps that you are trying to restore. CM9 uses a fairly small /datadata partition to install user apps to. Long story short, it's super fast, but it fills up very quickly. When /datadata is full, you get lots of FCs.

I would advise full wipe (data/cache/dalvik/factory reset), flash CM9 + gapps. Then, when it comes back up, restore apps from market (not TiBu). After you've installed several apps, go to Settings -> apps and move as many as you can to your SD card, then continue the restore. Use TiBu to restore the data for only the ones you need after you've reinstalled them from market and moved them to SD card.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] urimast:
Thanks for you reply.

I will try this and will report if works.

Is it possible to restore a bunch of apps with data manually, lets say 10 apps, and then move them to SD card? Will it work?

Also, why TiBu does not work?

Regards,

Uri.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gromlakh:
It's not that TiBu doesn't work, it's that some people have reported issues when restoring apps through TiBu. The issue I've commonly seen is that, for some reason, when people restore the app through TiBu it ends up taking up a lot more space than it is supposed to. Given the /datadata space issues...better to restore through the market to be safe.

You can restore as many apps as you want to at a time before you move to SD card. For me, I can generally get through restoring about half of my apps before I start getting warnings about "low space" and need to start moving stuff over.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] urimast:
OK.

Let me see if I get it correct:

1. I install CM9 + gapps after total wipe.

2. I install apps from market as many as I can until I get the message that there is no sufficient space.

3. I restore data of these apps using TiBu and move as many as I can to SD card.

4. Continue restoring apps from market.

Correct?

Uri.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gromlakh:
The warning will say "low space", not no space. But otherwise, yes.

I need help, I'm a noob

Ok, i'm probably going to get yelled at for this, but I wanted to get my captivate updated a stable version of ics. I followed the guide that TRusselo made, but kept getting failed to verify whole-file for cyanogenmod 9 and 10 (I am presuming this has something to do with the kernel version?). So, at the moment i used odin to flash back to an att kernel, 2.3.5 (boog KJ3 kernel3)(i originally was on a rogers 2.3.3). So, how would i be able to flash to ics now?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gromlakh:
Just flash it. There shouldn't be anything else needed.

CM10 Q&A?

Hi people!

This is my first post in XDA. I just want to know if it is ok to post questions regarding CM10 also in this tread. Since I'm new, I can't post any question in the Captivate's CM10 main thread in the developer's area.

I'm running CM10 20120225-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd on my captivate, Devil3 kernel. Everithing runs smooth like butter, but I hav just one odd issue.

While the phone is charging the touch screen turns -almost- irresponsive. I switched form CM10 built-in kernel to devil to see if it was fixed, but no luck.

More odd yet: It happens when I'm charging thru usb to my laptop or AC adapter. But it doesn't happens when I'm charging with the car adapter :eek:

Anybody have this issue? Any solution perhaps?

I'm not heard of this issue before. A couple things I would look at first is the usb cable you're using. Are you using the same one in all of the charging senerios? If that isn't a solution, I tend to look at a bad flash

This happened to me when I bought a cheap 99c car charger for my cappy. When it charged I had no control of my touch screen or if I touched one side of the screen it would open something completely different.

Try a different port on your Laptop or a different USB cable.

Thanks you both. I was using an original Blackberry AC adapter, but I tried with an old Samsung original cable and the problem has gone.

I thought that a cable is just a way to connect two points, but it seems that there is more science involved than that :)

Problem upgrading from CM9 to CM10 (to whom may concern)

Maybe this information can be usefull for somebody:

This is an issue that I had when I tried to upgrade from CM9 to CM10, but I luckily found a solution with no need to reflash or anithing else.

When I was flashing CM1020120225-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd, the phone began to boot loop. It restarted itself, entered in CWM recovery, gave an error in a fraction of a second and restarted again.

I thought that I was screwed up my phone, but by chance, in one of these loops, my eyes caught the words "mountin sd-card... error". So I removed battery and sd-card. I reinserted the battery, turned on and whoooo!!! booted into CM10 with no problem at all. After that I could insert the sd-card again with no problem at all and it is working ok now.

May be the problem can be avoided removing sd-card and sim card before flash.

Also when i got into recovery to flash CM10, I used the reboot into recovery option from power button, when the CM10 page suggest that it must be done with the three-buttons combo instead.

Regards.

The music player sometimes stops working when i try to play a specific song on the playlist, can someone help me understand why? is there a specific format the music player can't play?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangi26:
if it's what I think it is, it's "ghosts".

At reboot, the media storage(for some reason) creates extra files in the music and gallery folders.

Try this..... Go to settings/apps/all apps/media storage, and clear data. Then rescan media. It can take some time to complete so be patient

HI all. My colleague has bought this phone and I would like to install CM9 for him but I can see that there is a big fuss about bootloaders. I really do not understand why this is so important, but the question is:

1) how can I check what is the bootloader version on his device?

2) can I install CM9 on every bootloader or do I have to change it to some specific one?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
1) If you have stock gingerbread installed, then you must have gingerbread bootloaders.

2) CM9 should be fine on all bootloaders, but GB ones are recommended.

Mobile network not working with CM9.0 stable as wel as CM10 nightly

Dear All,

I have a AT&T captivate . I am in India and the phone has been unlocked using codes provided by AT&T. Right now running official 2.3 ROM. And everything is working fine except few hangs. So I decided to install CM9 ROM which i was able to install successfully. But after installing the ROM, mobile network is not working at all . I had installed CM9.0 stable and also same with CM10 nightly

But why mobile network was not working in CM9.0 ? Do i have to unlock cell using AT&T code again ( I have to search for that code now) ? Or do i have to flash any new Radio? or new modem ? or any kernel ?

Phone model: SGH I897

Radio (baseband): I897UCKK4

CM version: Tried both CM9.0 stable and CM10-nightly-12-09-2012

CM Download url: from CM website

So, here's an update for anyone willing to help. Called AT&T they say I need a new SIM card.

My findings are the phone will not update my SMSC to the correct +13123149810 in the phone info (using *#*#INFO#*#*). My question I guess is, what are the correct toggles for this menu. My settings are:

WDMCA Preferred

"Turn off radio"

"Turn on IMS registration required"

"Turn off SMS over IMS"

"Turn off lte ram dump"

SMSC: Blank (will not update)

Toggle DNS check: 0.0.0.0 not allowed

Are these the correct settings?

When I input +13123149810 in the SMSC and press update or refresh or both nothing new happens. When I close that menu and goto send a text, the radio cycles and still can't send text. When I go back to the Phone info the SMSC is blank or 00

Re-boot and install your ext SD

Give it a bit of time to re-search the media out and cache it.
