Does any one know of a ICS ROM that you can run NetFlix & do TV Out via cable?

THS is still HW accelerated and while the video plays on the phone, it doesnt play through the TV Out.

How can I get to the android app store?

What is the easiest way to find a wifi signal?

I have purchased the Titanium Pro but only see the non-donate verison, is there a fix for that?

Thanks greatly in advance for any replies, please forgive my numbness but I want to learn and share.

Thank you!

I just flashed my Captivate to Docs ICS ROM, and so far Im liking it, coming from Serendipity for Froyo. Its really smooth, and I like the setup. Im having trouble getting Side Loader to detect my phone, and Ive used Kies Mini driver install and another Captivate driver, and still no dice, but I can mount the drive and access the phone from the computer.
[Captivate General] DemonNeno:
Do you have rom manager? Gapps are listed under the romssection. Otherwise, I know hacksung's xda post for ICS has a link for gapps listed (I'm running v7.1 without issues).

Camera on Captivate Running ICS

My camera/video recorder is working great on my Captivate running ICS. Works very well. No issues so far...
[Captivate General] DemonNeno:
Camera functional, as is camcorder

Camera works great, although there aren't any focus settings. It generally works good, but taking close-ups may leave you feeling a bit hopeless to catch the shout you want.

Example: Trying to catch focus of the ribbon connector of a galaxy a 4g (TMobile) that corroded from a plunge inn a toilet. I eventually got it, but I had to back away and digitally zoom in on the spot, so the image contains more artifacts than I wanted. I'll live! That phone won't..
[Captivate General] Wakamatsu:
I running Slim ICS right now. I'm a fan of the minimalist philosophy. I'm keeping an eye on the Cyanogenmod alpha, though.
[Captivate General] SkiddMark:
Just an FYI... I'd been having random reboot, no-signal, and missed call issues with Build 16 of CM9 on my Captivate. I'd been trying various different modems and quite a number of "Factory Rests" in an attempt to get my phone more stable. Even bounced back and forth between CM7, CM9 and ICSSGS. No combination seemed to be stable.

Alas... today I seem (so far) to finally have a more-or-less stable Captivate. All thanks to Glitch v14. :)

So.. I'm not suggesting that this is a fix for everybody having ICS problems on their Capivate... but it's been working for me so far.

I897 Captivate

Build 16 TeamHacksung ICS/CM9 Alpha

KP1 Modem (In South Texas)

[Captivate General] SkiddMark:
Update... I thought the random reboots were gone, but they were not. Reduced.. yes... eliminated... no

Alas... this time I think I DID solve it though. (fingers crossed)

Docs is by far the cleanest best looking ICS ROM for the Captivate.

I was having some SOD issues, even with didle disabled.

After reflashing was still having issues.

Reflashed again and didn't give NSTools superuser permissions and it hasn't happened since.

Seems odd and won't say it might not happen again but so far so good.
[Captivate General] itsxiao:
i really wanted to like ICS but i tried WeUI ICS it kept giving a lot of FCs and phone shut off by itself a few times.. maybe it was just me. is there a poll for most stable/featured ICS rom? or anyone have a preference. currently on apex 12.4 and semaphore kernel, digging the stability.

how is your battery life? I got draining issue :(
[Captivate General] eMiL112:
Trying Dark Knight v3. So far so good but battery drains fast :(
[Captivate General] DJSave:
I found a solution:

After jumping on a new ROM, you need to calibrate your battery:

first off, drain it until phone shuts itself down

then charge 100% and download Battery calibration app from market (its free)

calibrate your battery and then drain it again and charge 100% at once

and you are done!

worked for me
[Captivate General] quixotic_elixer:
Just a general question, not sure if its CM9 specific or ICS.

With my back with the stock camcorder app in 2.3.3 GB. When you were recording and hit the power button, it would lock the screen while continuing to record.

I notice that with the ICS camcorder there is an option for power shutter... but is there anyway to get it to screen lock while recording?

Thanks
[Captivate General] psyfactor:
Try Darkknight v3 but I got too much prob so I flashed back to 2.1 with kp1 modem and all is good again: no excessive battery drain, no phone getting hot, no general laggyness. I miss Rom control from v3 but I can live with that
[Captivate General] bravomail:
my battery life is good

I'm using Latest Nostalgia ICS.

Battery saving settings - LiveOC 126%, MaxCPU=800*1.26=1008MHz. Nexus KB3 Modem. No deep idle sleep, no screen state settings, no internal voltage settings, ARM voltages are OC/UV. Power saver in ROMSettings enabled.

I left phone overnight for 10 hours at 43% battery, and wake up at 40%. That's not bad at all.

ICS on captivate

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I just wanted to say I've tried many different ROMS on my cappy and the best one so far is Fusion-cm-beta(IML74K). IT JUST WORKS. Good and smooth. Nice themes. Overall fun webpage in the xda forums with great devs. I highly recommend!

[Captivate General] doolam:
I kinda know the answer already, but want to be sure: is there an ICS ROM that is not pre-rooted?

my company policy prevents accessing email from a rooted phone, so I'm curious if such a ROM exits short of reverting back to stock.
[Captivate General] b-eock:
No, but how do they block a phone with root access???
[Captivate General] doolam:
It's a group policy security setting on the exchange email side. You have to accept remote policy pushes before the account can be installed on the phone side. This allows remote wiping of the phone in case you lose it, but also allows them access to confirm and enforce other security settings.
[Captivate General] doolam:
And now the fun part of researching how to downgrade from ics to gb. Hoping it's as easy as one click Odin, with ROM and kernel included. Urgh... Not happy.
[Captivate General] mrtim8383:
That's the most retarded thing I have heard in a while. If it was my personal phone I'd tell them to kick rocks with that intrusive policy. (Unless it was their phone).
[Captivate General] doolam:
Yeah, they pay for it ;)
[Captivate General] bravomail:
Post rooting, may be

Then resort to Stock. As long as "Install from Unknown sources" is enabled you should be happy...

There is Heimdall package for Stock KK4.

I'd try this sneaky way - install company email, agree to everything, wait a week, then root it. :D

I'm running Dark Knight 4.0.4 v4 with Semaphore kernel. The original kernel had major lag for me.

I put on Semaphore yesterday and all day today my google accounts wont sync (contacts/calendar/gmail) and I can't access Google Play. I don't know if they are linked, but i find it unusual that it coincided with the new kernel and no one else in the world seems to be lamenting of the same problem so it's just me.

Otherwise, it's a fast and clean ROM. The most stable build people say is v3 rather than v4. But v5 is supposed to be coming out very very soon!

I started out with Cognition the second week I had my phone. Then moved on to Serendipity. After a very long time I finally flashed my first ICS ROM with AOKP.

Amazing ROM! I was getting tired of my cappy but its like a new phone with ICS.

I saw one post on the Cog thread that the Cappy wasn't built for ICS but I don't believe this. Its amazingly smooth and lag free with the games now. Like with any ROM there are tiny bugs that don't matter one bit to me. Its fully functional and does everything I need it to.

Bravo ICS. Can't believe Samsung hasn't jumped to this version of Android.

[Captivate General] sRedwolf:
One of the things holding me back from giving ICS a try is audio quality. With gingerbread ROMS I always had better luck with the I897 radio/modems compared to the i9000 ones (in fact these gave me pretty lousy voice quality) so I've always assumed the difference was the audience chip support.

So with ICS obviously the I897 modems are not an option so what can be expected audio-wise? Has the experience been generally good or does it vary widely depending on location and individual devices?

[Captivate General] captican:
I have been on Slim since 2.7 and am not really sure what "bugs" are keeping you from ICS. It works very well. The only hiccup was when I tried a different kernel (swapped back to stock) and again experimented with a Nexus radio (back to I897 now).

[Captivate General] ewingr:
I was reading on current Slim today in fact (3.5 now), and found these two issues just today:

Random Reboot

FC with 'Speak Destination'

Sure. MosaicIX seems to be pretty much bug free. I had some issue for a while, but had done a TiBu restore incorrectly. HAving reflashed and loaded, it seems perfectly stable and bug free, as commented by many on that thread. I have a post in that thread about the phenomenal battery life.

Sounds like folks are a bit defensive. I'm not trying to knock anyone. All the DEVs here are doing great work. The fact that ICS is running at all on the Captivate is cool.

I just prefer to load one that doesn't have any bugs for things that I use. I see a lot of folks having problems with Blue Tooth, random reboots, freezes, etc.
[Captivate General] pc103:
I was using Doc's V8 and switched from Glitch to Semaphore 1.0 Kernel. The only hiccup I recall was some incoming caller IDs lagging a bit, number first and name + number late.

The rom/Kernel combo was so stable, when my friend who envied it got her iphone stolen I worked a deal to give it to her and get a Skyrocket. She ditched the B'berry temp phone and has been happily customizing my old Cappy running Doc's over Semaphore for three weeks now. Runs her business and more music handling than I ever did, no complaints.

Compare that to the SR I'm loving. All my testing has confirmed that GB OTA 2.3.6 kills my phone's ability to do external SD writes. I'm back customizing GB 2.3.5 till I get ICS.

Point: Bravo Doc's V8, (serious cool!) Stock: (=not so much here.)

What application and file did you use for transferring over BT? I would like to test this with my OG, TFP, and MT4G. Because I have never noticed any degradation of WiFi on my OG TF, but only use Bluetooth for Tablet Talk (SMS bridge)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lion2:
I used the "File Expert" file manager available for free on the marketplace. To transfer a file over bluetooth all I did this in File Expert.

1. find a directory with a video in it

2. tap-and-hold on video file

3. tap Send files

4. tap Send via bluetooth

5. The device will search for available bluetooth devices

6. Select the device you want to transfer to

7. Go to other device and accept the transfer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Well, I'll be damned. I just ran the same test on my Samsung Epic 4G Touch as I've been running on my Primes:

1. Wifi performing normally.

2. Turn on Bluetooth. Wifi continues performing normally.

3. Pair with my Motorola S9-HD headphones. Wifi continues performing normally.

4. Start streaming music via Google Music to the headphones. Wifi drops SIGNIFICANTLY. No need to quantify, because it's such a dramatic drop (say from 8Mb/s to <1Mb/s here on my work network).

5. Stop streaming, wifi recovers.

I also went the additional route of playing the same music over the external speakers (headphones disconnected). Wifi performance remained roughly the same, allowing for the bandwidth taken up by the streaming (say, from 8Mb/s to 7.5Mb/s).

I'll say that the phone didn't completely drop Internet connectivity like the Primes do, but wifi performance absolutely dropped through the floor. Maybe the Primes are just a tad bit worse than some other devices, like they are in wifi performance in general, but not the nightmare scenario otherwise implied.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] topherthehidden:
So i ran the test and its funny becuase im running the exact same test.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
I have a sub-sub-par LG Optimus T and I have already tried to replicate this issue on it. I pair w/ my BT Philips headset and stream Pandora w/ no lags. Speeds are consistently the same.

My Prime, on the other hand, will droop instantly and intermittently disconnect as soon as it is paired to the same BT headset on the same WiFi network.

Cheaper parts = better wireless performance? I think not... I hope not.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I've seen it before. no matter whether using a phone or tablet, BT will affect wifi signal to some extent. some more then others. there's no way that they couldn't because they are both on same wireless signal 802.11 or whatever it is. depending on phone or tablet and strength of signal, some will be affected more than others or maybe even some not at all.

some been mentioned this before but no one here seemed to listen..lmso
