Any way to solve the data/data issue? Pain in the ass moving apps to sd then install one big game get the same issue. I ran the datadatafix posted for all ICS but does not seem to help.

Any suggestions.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] Volvogga:
I never did try the datadata fix, but I just got used to moving the apps when I installed them (app2sd gives you a nice reminder chime). The biggest thing for me was a few misbehaving apps. Some apps, especially when fully restored from TuBu with data, didn't seem to move everything to the SD card when the operation was performed. After a few wipes, I eventually restored only apps, moved everything I could to the SD, and then restored the data only on those apps that data was a necessity for.

Of course, the biggest offender for me was Google Currents. It seemed like even when moved to the SD card and setup from scratch at that location, Currents just kept downloading data into the main memory. Once I canned that app, I have hardly had a problem.

I have just decided that there are some apps I will have to live without until I get a new phone in the future. The way I understand it, most phones that came with Gingerbread or ICS as the default ROM (I think Galaxy S II generation and later) should never see this problem due to increased capacity for the memory chip datadata uses in newer devices.

Some also say that getting a pretty heavy cache cleaner app from the market works wonders, but I've never seen any proof that this helps. Might be something to look into. (try reading this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1557373 )

I had checked different Radios and the occasional random reboot still occurs. Like Scott says, it doesn't really bother me much too. But, still would like to know why it occurs. Tested by changing kernels too..
[Captivate Android Development] lordxentris:
I did notice that some times some kernels tend to put higher voltage values even if you are not over clocking, this might the reason for some peoples random reboots, you can use NSTOOL to check it out.

Wifi issue

Hi,

I am coming to this ROM from Fusion ICS. I installed (base+essentials) after a factory reset, format system. Everything is running fine, except when I toggle Wi-fi on, the status bar is blue for perhaps 10 seconds, then it turns grey. When the Wi-fi bar is grey, my phone signal bar also tuns grey and I am not receiving any emails or messages (tested overnight). I do have a number of gmail messages on my laptop, but they do not show up in the phone. If I toggle wi-fi to off, the phone signal turns back to blue and the messages start appearing. I read somewhere on this forum that there is a wi-fi framework patch, however, I did not find the patch. I would appreciate any help.
[Captivate Android Development] Phaze13:
The only wifi framework patch I'm familiar with was for wifi toggling on-off rapidly after turning it on. Has been fixed a few revisions ago. That patch wouldn't help you. Unless there is another patch I would try reflashing the ROM, or 1st maybe just the essentials zip after wiping cache.
[Captivate Android Development] loudoun83:
Flashed Essentials zip as you suggested, but didn't help. Turning on Wi-fi results in the same behavior - blue for about 5 seconds, then immediately grey and the phone signal bar also turns grey.:(
[Captivate Android Development] lordxentris:
Try changing the Radio, I had the same problem, then I changed the radio and it fixed the issue.

What is your screen percentage at? For some reason at the end of the day mine ends up near 50% or more. I keep by brightness all the way down and it still ends up at a really high number.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
If screen has highest % sounds about right. In my case Media server gets retarted % but I play alot of music so meh.
[Captivate Android Development] toonwar:
What about calls? Should that be killing battery?I made 4 calls, about 10 minutes combined, but now my call percentage is 34% and screen went down to 22%. Should calls take that much?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
You understand that # is relative to what is consuming more battery. If your phone is sleeping most of the time and you made 10-15mins worth of calls then obviously it will be top % since the phone hasn't been doing anything else.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
I'm always listening too. It looks like they just moved the Android OS bug from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 and renamed it to media server
[Captivate Android Development] yungstar89:
hey guys. QUick question I hope someone can answer. Just grabbed this rom coming from dark knight 5 and had an issue. The dock is blank. Is that the case with everyone? or should i reflash? Also, everything is so small!

[Captivate Android Development] mrsubway:
Two things I miss from Gingerbread. Pico voice and driving mode. Does anyone know a way to get them in ICS?
[Captivate Android Development] toonwar:
I understand percentages. I had my screen on a good bit and it was unplugged for 3 hours when I posted that. The calls were made immediately before I posted it too. Its just crazy that 10 mins of calls is that much percentage considering it was so short of a call.

[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Isn't it that a different version of "home screen". Memory serves me right it made it look like a GPS interface, mostly at least. Pretty sure it was an app though. nothing kernel specific, maybe TW specific? I don't remember lol.

3.6 Released, Have fun.
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
This is from the changelog for 3.6: "BLN v9 and blink in kernel - thanks der teufel ( for suggestion) and mialwe ( for the commit)"

Does this mean we no longer need a separate app like BLN Control for BLN to work?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Correct NSTool can manipulate BLN.
[Captivate Android Development] pqee:
Update me app just popped up with the update. Painful download though. Guess that's a side effect of everyone being notified and downloading at the same time.

Thanks for the ROM!
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
Well I just uninstalled BLN control, made sure that Backlight Notification was set to "ON" in NSTools and the lights do not light up.

[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Was going to say it worked just fine now. Either something wrong with your downloads specifically or server might have some issue with the amount of dls, either way good to hear it worked.
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
DLed from site from my computer and installed just fine. About phone lists as 3.6 added a few zips I have for Swype etc

After reboots update me notified me about new version and says I am running 3.3 ? Also won't let me get email app

It downloads but does not install even after reboot

What am I doing wrong
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
One of 2 things. Either you didn't flash Essentials OR one of the zips you flashed mess with build.prop
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
Pretty sure i flashed essentials If I didn't flash essentials would the ROM boot up

How do I check build prop
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
Build number in about phone is 3.6
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
When I checked build.prop with a root explorer it also shows 3.6
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Reflash essentials and report.
[Captivate Android Development] mopo01:
Tried that no change still shows 3.3 in update me and 3.6 every where else ???

Not a big deal just will deactivate notification for now
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Try updating app app (assuming you haven't) else something else might be wrong.
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:

Lol why?
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Well I was driving home from work today completely enjoying 3.5 and i look down and see little Andy in my status bar. "ROM update available". Well of course I have to find a shopping center lot to pull off in after almost wrecking trying to update. By the time I got done reading the change log, updating the ROM, and setting back up my exchange accounts I had lost a little over an hour. Little while longer, roll in the front door. Wife - "Why are you so late?" Me - " Ummmmm, ROM update "

That didn't fly to well. So I'm convinced the OTA update is the equivalent to putting crack in a user's pocket once a week without telling them

[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Ok here's one that is confusing me. I had galaxy s settings and NST already on 3.5. Now with 3.6 they are both an integrated part of settings. So I went into the market and uninstalled both. Went into settings and got fc on both. TiBu restored both and all works well.

So my question is what purpose did integrating them into the ROM if they still have to be market installed to work. What am I missing ?

Google TTS issue?

Upgraded from 3.5 to 3.6, with Semaphore 1.1.1sc, with no problems. After base and essentials, installed SpeechRec/voicedialer zip file via CWM/recovery, then downloaded the Google TTS from Addon_Mods on the slimrom website, pushed it to system/apps, edited permissions, and rebooted. Google TTS now shows up under the Text-to-Speech option, but when you try to listen to an example, an error message pops up- "Unfortunately, Google TTS engine has stopped".

Other than that, 3.6 for me is just like 3.5 - smooth and stable. Voice search / recog works fine, and while I can't seem to get the "listen to an example" option to work for Pico , Pico TTS works fine in other applications. So it seems this bug is peculiar to the Google TTS apk.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] eNemy-:
Hey shouldn't be the 3.6 Base.zip's and 3.6 Base.zip.md5sum's md5sum be same?

They are different and i am confused. lol
[Captivate Android Development] Ir0nLy0n:
The base.zip md5sum should be the same as the one that is in the base.zip.md5sum not the same as the md5sum of the file itself
[Captivate Android Development] eNemy-:
Wow never thought i could open that .md5sum with notepad. LOL

Thanks man
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
I assume the update notification is being pushed to the OTA app and that the app is not checking for updates periodically? I thought when I first installed it, that it would check upon re-boot, but it definitely got the notification on its own.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
It's only a short cut.

The reason krarvin decided againts including the voice recognition and TTS as a "app" in OTA is because it uses 1 or 2 libs for it to work. He made it as a cwm flashable instead. Its in OTA/Addons/ and just flash it and it should work.

3.6Base.zip.md5sum is only a text file with the md5sum NOT the base rom. It is only for OTA to check your download got the correct file and is not corrupted

UpdateMe has it's own developer that is constantly working on making it better. He is adding features or fixing bugs almost on a daily basis. He has added a "check in x hours".
[Captivate Android Development] MarcianoS:
Thanks and update report

First of all, thanks to the devs for this amazing rom! I loved 3.5, and 3.6 is even better. Amazing, indeed.

Just FYI, after updating OTA, I had to update the Update Me app. Before doing so, the app only showed "Rom" and "Settings" as options---no Essentials, Apps, etc.

Also, the OTA update wiped out the stock Launcher I had installed in 3.5. No biggie---I guess I should have performed a TiBu first, to save my settings (right? or is the stock launcher recompiled on each new version release?)

These are both pretty minor issues, though perhaps worth mentioning in the FAQ---Google only turned up a post about clearing the Update Me cache in case of a FC, which I did but didn't solve my problem (menu not showing Essentials etc.)

Again, thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
The update of updateme was a random bug. The launcher will always delete because Base.zip formats /system (where launcher is at).
[Captivate Android Development] alec.espinoza:
hi there, thank you for these fantastic roms. I upgraded to 3.6 and experienced three hungs this morning. I went back to 3.5 for now and see if it is something with my apps.

anybody with this situation?

thank you again for this excellent work. I will donate :-).
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Sorry "hungs"? as in what bootloops or what?
[Captivate Android Development] MarcianoS:
Thanks for clarifying that. So, is it OK to restore from TiBu? Or is the Launcher recompiled with each new release?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
I don't see why restoring with Tibu would cause a issue (I've done it with Nova). Launcher is almost never "new". Probably the same launcher as the first 4.0.4 Slim, maybe even 4.0.3. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] pupochek:
FWIW, I am using Apex launcher (with Zeam completely uninstalled) and it was not replaced when I upgraded to 3.5 and then to 3.6 (Zeam was just added, but the phone booted with Apex).
[Captivate Android Development] krarvind:
thats because you installed it as a data app, if isntalled as system app that would hae been gone. FYI.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Exactly. I dislike Apex and Nova from market (the ask for root annoys me). I flash a old Beta xD.

I kinda figured that's the case, so it was an implicit advice :D

[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
I love the OTA and the UpdateMe app and think they are great features to incorporate.

That being said, I just checked the settings and mine is set to check for an update upon Re-boot. The "check in x hours" does not have a value assigned, so why was I notified of an update without re-booting?
[Captivate Android Development] krarvind:
default is 1 hr
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
That's good information to know. So even if there is nothing checked, it still checks every hour, huh? I just changed it to 24 hours.

Between the random shutdowns and tether manager FCs, I was just about ready to toss my Cappy and upgrade. Thought what the heck, rooted and flashed the Corn kernel, but still had issues with tether manager and random shutdowns, so 2 days ago I flashed Slim ICS 3.5 per the instructions and suddenly my Cappy is no longer running like crap. No tether manager issues and no more random shutdowns. Just used the OTA update app and flashed to 3.6...still no issues and I love Slim ICS with Zeam launcher. I am still playing around with it and finding new stuff. Slim may have extended the life of my Cappy at least another year.
[Captivate Android Development] pupochek:
Same here. Gave my SGS2 to my wife when I decided to play with ICS roms on Captivate. After I discovered Slim, I can't make myself give the Captivate back :-))))

I was just clearing that point. Might brick the Skyrocket. In theory it could work on the I777 assuming there is a alternative kernel.

Anyone having issues with md5 failing OTA for essentials 3.6? Downloaded several times but same error
[Captivate Android Development] krarvind:
Seems like an issue on the OTA app side
[Captivate Android Development] diakonos:
I've noticed that since updating from 3.5 to 3.6 through OTA download (base+essentials), I've had mixed results with GPS-related apps like Maps/Nav and Glympse. Often they just can't get a fix or the Nav just sits at the logo screen and never loads the nav screens -- it just sits for about a minute until asking to close Maps as an unresponsive program.

Also, I've been noticing the phone having numerous "SOD" (sleep of death) moments requiring a battery pull and reboot. Anyone else noticing this? I think I'm going to retry the flash instructions for updating 3.5 to 3.6 by deleting cache + dalvik to see if it helps. I'd prefer not to "start over" by wiping everything, including /system, unless anyone thinks that would help over everything else. I've TiBu'd my 4.0.4 apps so I could reinstall those if needed.
[Captivate Android Development] krarvind:
Do a format system and reinstall
[Captivate Android Development] mandy007:
anyone tried this with devil kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
I've been running one version or anothe of devil for close to a month. What exactly is your question? Is it good? Test it for yourself. Does it run? Any i897 ICS kernel will run. Whats the difference? Much and many, again, test for yourself.
[Captivate Android Development] diakonos:
So far, that has definitely helped the Maps/Nav app to come back around -- let's hope it sticks.

This is an unbelievable ROM, by the way. I've tried a few other ICS ROMs and this one is slicker, quicker, and more refined than the others -- by far.

[Captivate Android Development] whisky23:
As I mentioned in my earlier post, SREC_VoiceDialer_Addon.zip (4.0.x) was downloaded via OTA and flashed via CWM. Speech recognition / voice dialer app works fine, but under Text-to-Speech, there is not option for Google TTS - only Pico TTS is available as an option. So either the zip file is supposed to install Google TTS but failed, or it is not configured to install Google TTS (which I suspect is the case).

The reason I downloaded Google TTS as an apk is because it is not available as a CWM-flashable zip file, whether through OTA or via the slimrom website. It is, however, available as an apk and listed as an additional addon app on the slimrom website. But if you're telling me that additional libraries are required which are not included in the Slim ICS rom, then I have to assume that one cannot simply install Google TTS on Slim ICS. If that is the case, it would be best to remove Google TTS from the website, since most people would assume that anything listed on the website will work with Slim ICS.
