Installed this last night over CM9 Alpha, loving it so far... Slim definitely means slim! :D

I somehow screwed up my market to where downloads would never start, but a data wipe fixed that.

Launcher

I've never used a rom with Zeam launcher. I assume the fact that there are app icons on the bottom of the screen is by design. I see that I can use menu and go to open the app drawer but is there a way to turn the launcher icons on?

Nevermind figured it out, settings->apps->all->Zeam Launcher->clear data fixed my icon issue.
[Captivate Android Development] GunPR:
Im wondering if somebody is having problems with the power saver feature?

Love the idea an save a lot of battery keeping data to the minimum possible..

Partially it works, sometimes it get stuck on 2g/E or sometimes it decides to drop the connection entirely, the only way to bring it back is with the toggle of data or disable/enable data again.. Or pressing the power button on and off till data comes back..

Im using my recommended modem by location JK4.. So dont know whats going on...

PD: Hide clock on the status on (ASS) would be nice...

Virtual buttons on and off also would be nice XD
[Captivate Android Development] toonwar:
The only question I have had been asked before but not answered. Is there a way to enable app stacking to make folders? That is about the only thing that I have not found in this ROM. Other than that, I love it!
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Yeah get rid of of Zeam Launcher and use Nova like I do. App Stacking/Changeable icons, way better IMO
[Captivate Android Development] toonwar:
Dumb question probably, I am new to some of the newer roms. I have been running miui on my inspire for the past year or so. So how would I go about doing that and what will I lose if I do change it.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
You lose absolutely nothing. Just go to the market and download it and then set as default launcher. You gain a ton of more customization.

And before you do that hit the thanks button :)
[Captivate Android Development] toonwar:
Thanks! Button pressed :)
[Captivate Android Development] GunPR:
I don't know about stock launcher. But Go launcher let you do it and it runs fine in the phone. Even in the dock let you do a stack.

[Captivate Android Development] toonwar:
Thanks for the reply but scottcwhite told me about NOVA launcher. I absolutely love it and I am able to customize it any way that I want it. I used Go launcher back in android 2.x on my Inspire so I know what it's like, but NOVA just seems to be about 5 steps ahead.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
I love it. ICS Browser Plus and Nova complete any ICS ROM. I love browser plus

I would just like to say that this is by far the best ROM that I have used throughout all of the devices that I own or have owned. By far the best Android 4.0 ROM out there. Thanks guys!

help?

went back to stock using Odin

master cleared using Odin

got GB bootloaders

got clockworck recovery

then tried to flash base 2.8 but i keep getting this status 7 error

any help?
[Captivate Android Development] krarvind:
you didn't read my instructions. why?

These steps should work for anybody who has Sammy GB ROM on the phone with CWM recovery

Flash CM9/TH build 16, then mine ( if you are on another ICS ROM, this shouldn't bee needed)

Reboot to recovery or if it bootloops, pull battery, enter CWM

wipe data, Flash base + essentials + wifi patch ( if applicable)

reboot to system

guys i just want to delete all my contacts, i hate them all, how can i do that?

but not one by one cause there are about 500 of them and even to delete just one contact it takes 4 clicks.

thx a lot
[Captivate Android Development] Volvogga:
I... don't think this is the exact right place to ask such a question, but how about going to system settings, accounts and sync, and syncing the contacts to your google account. With that many contacts, you probably want to be on wifi and hungry (go make a sandwich). After that go to gmail on a computer/laptop web browser and click the down arrow next to "Gmail" and select "Contacts". Now you should be able to use checkboxes and 'select all' to delete contacts. If you remove them from Gmail/Google Account, I think they will delete from your phone as well now.
[Captivate Android Development] igoa:
remove all unneeded contact's from PC in GMail and then sync device
[Captivate Android Development] razvanadrian:
ok, thx guys, i asked here be cause on other ROMs it is posible to delete more contacts at one time, i thought maybe i am missing something...

anyway i used some other app from the market for managing contacts which had this feature, did my job then uninstalled it cause i like my phone clean...

thx again...

I have flashed a lot of ICS ROMs since RC2.1, but I keep coming back to Slim. I really appreciate the non-wipe installation process.

The last ROM I came back from was AOKP Milestone 4. I did a full wipe before installing it and when I flashed back to Slim with just a Dalvik Wipe, I noticed the small PM from AOKP was still showing in the status bar. No way to turn it off via the regular menu(?), but that's not a problem.

Thanks again! Donation coming.
[Captivate Android Development] Psyclotr0n:
ok i think this is a ? in general for all ICS roms but I miss being able to press-hold on a text box and all text is highlighted by default, now those two pincher sliders come up and you have to move those around manually to select all text (which I always copy to clipboard before sending anything in case it doesnt go thru, crashes, etc).

thoughts?

oh, one other thing, is there a way to remove the camera option from the lockscreen? sometimes when i unlock real fast the camera launches when it shouldn;t (at least, I dont think i'm swiping left)
[Captivate Android Development] razvanadrian:
a lot of my mp3s are not playing anymore and also none of my videos .flv and .mp4, videos that use to work on gingerbread with the same player...any ideas?

nevermind...just copy/paste the items again, they will work.
[Captivate Android Development] basily:
I just came over from ICSSGS and I'm loving this ROM so far. I haven't played much with customization yet, and not getting much battery life, but it's only been one charge cycle so far, it's bound to get better.

I did also notice that the charging animation while off isn't working, and toggling that check-box in my ASS didn't seem to do anything either. What's that toggle for anyway? And what's with the warning?

To get asian fonts working you need to replace the DroidSansFallback.ttf file in /system/fonts with another one that has support for asian language fonts. try the attached font.

Gtalk force clause on Video Chat/ Email.apk request

First thank you for this great rom.

Gtalk FC when I receive or try to initiate a video Chat. Skype video chat works, I just have to disable the video then re-enable it using the back Camera option.

It would also be nice (depending on your philosophy in building this ROM) to include a moded email apk that bypass the Security requirement. I have been using this script to mode the mail apk when I update.

Few things. I'm coming from build 17, and there are a few things I miss and was wondering if I could put on myself. I liked the music app, but for some reason I tried replacing .apk and it didn't work. Next, the toggles are way different, is there anyway to go back to the originals? And lastly, how do you get bln to work? I do have glitch b4.1 installed. My main issues are the music, bln, and toggles in order of importance. Don't get me wrong I'm not bashing the from, from the looks of it, its a lot snappier then b17. So thank you for creating it and sorry if this message sounds bad, it wasn't intended too. Thank you for any help

Fixed the music... but the bln and toggle thing I need help with
[Captivate Android Development] shaker2k:
Ok got it up and running. everything seems ok. But the weather option is not working. Can anyone else confirm this. Its not a deal breaker just curious.

So I just flashed this ROM and for the most part everything looks good but I'm having two issues. Sometimes when I try to enable wifi the switch will just toggle back and forth repeatedly without settling on a position and the only way to enable it is through a reboot. The other thing is my notification toggles seem to have disappeared and I can't figure out how to get them back no matter what settings I have in the toggles area. Anyone else experience these issues or have any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] krarvind:
it hasn't gone anywhere mate, just single touch the settings icone next to the date in notification bar.

[Captivate Android Development] krarvind:
did you not flash essentials?. Use heimdall, flash my boot.img in download mode via

Heimdall flash --kernel boot.img

Enter recovery, flash base + essentials
[Captivate Android Development] onelight:
if your boot got stuck take out the battery to power off. Then put battery back in and hold the volume rockers up and down at the same time as the power button. This should get you back into cw recovery. Then if you need to add or change something you can mount a rom with clockwork recovery into ur phone's drive. make sure you installed Base_2.9.zip not the addon of 2.9 and do a factory reset and clear cache before you install and you should be good to go. Also forgot to mention installed captivate essentials after base.

Hope I didn't give any misinformation on how to do something here. Thats what i did to get this rom working...
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Did that and what your are saying should work but it's not. 3 button combo gets the Google "g 4.0" kernel screen but then instead of going to cwm it just goes back to the slim boot animation screen and hangs there. Is there kernel I can flash in Odin that will get me cwm back. I've got to get this phone working for work in the am

Please help. I suck with Heimdall. Is there not something I can flash in Odin. I have like 3 different Heimdall programs on my laptop and none of them have a kernel spot or let me select anything other than complete packages or tar files. I knew I should have just left it the f**k alone
[Captivate Android Development] krarvind:
i wrote what you need to type in command line/terminal, just place the boot.img in a dir, cd to that dir, put phone in d/l mode then type

heimdall flash --kernel boot.img

Tells me that heimdall is not recognized as an internal it external command, operable program or batch file
[Captivate Android Development] krarvind:
windows? you installed the heimdall package? not sure mate, use speedmod or some other tar file to get recovery or there is a recovery fix.tar file somewhere i think. then do a fresh install. not sure how you lost recovery unless you had a bad download.

Maybe I'm using command prompt wrong. how do I cd to the directory boot file is in. And thank you for bearing with my stupidness

best bet to go back to a stock GB, then take it from there. you did extract the boot.img from the essentials i assume
