I would love to flash this rom, but before I go through the process of switching I'm curious how it's running for you guys. I'm currently on MIUI and I'm ready for something more stable. Are you guys finding this faster and more stable than MIUI?
[Captivate Android Development] bballer182:
I would love to know also. We have the option to turn it on but no options to connect to comparable devices. I have 2 cappys both with M6 and I cannot connect the two... Has anyone been able to use it?

One question If I want the Calendar, clock and calculator apps from stock ROM. Can I just copy the apps to the system\apps an reboor and work. Or do I need the apps from a Samsung ICS like the SGS3 and copy the apps to system\apps.

Do you think it will work. I prefer the clock app, tha tinclude the alarm, world timer and stop watch in the same app. Right now I have to use 3 apps to do the same.

If you try your suggestion let me know how it works out for ya
[Captivate Android Development] dave71670:
I'm pretty sure it won't work that way. There are other steps involved. ICS to ICS would be the way to go with correct permissios set.
[Captivate Android Development] melvinaury:
That's what I think, if we download a factory ROM from Galaxy 3. It should work.
[Captivate Android Development] melvinaury:
I will try that tomorrow, I check the ROMS but are over 400 mb. I download tomorrow at the office.:D:D
[Captivate Android Development] elwilson4:
Stock Samsung apps are linked to the Touchwiz framework. You can't just pull the clock app and install it on an AOSP rom like AOKP. There is a thread over in the Epic 4G Apps forum where someone was able to modify some TW apps (Calculator, Clock, Calendar, Memo and Task Manager) to work like a standard app. I've tried a few of them and can confirm they work. Here is the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21540104#post21540104.

So I messed up and tried to install the jb version of Gapps onto an ICS version and of course I got all kinds of FC on anything and everything google.

I flashed back to the ICS version and still have the errors. I wiped the caches and have removed the google account from the accounts/sync and tried to re-install the account, but still get the FC.

Can someone point me in the right direction.

I am running M6, Devil3 1.0 RC3

Thanks for the info,

Steve
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
Dalvik cache also?
[Captivate Android Development] ssallen1971:
I fixed it by re-flashing M6 and the correct gapps...

Just made the switch from slim ics out of curiosity. Must say that first impressions are GREAT. Best battery life I've ever gotten in ICS. I am still running minimal apps at this point so i get an accurate gauge on performance. Running newest devil kernel and experienced a bit of lag. Can't determine whether kernel or ROM related but i can definitely rule out rogue app. Judging by the silence in this thread, everyone is pleased and i can see why. Great job sixstring. Would like to know others impressions after running for several days with regard to lag.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
I made the switch to this rom from ICS MIUI about 3-6 days ago. I haven't changed the kernel at all and I experience some lag transitioning into applications or app drawer, but it runs smooth. Battery life is about the same I guess. Do you like the new kernel compared to the one included in the rom? I might recommend Fast Burst Camera from Google. It takes photos insanely quick, and the paid version is even faster.

Also thanks sixstringsg for the rom, it's amazing!
[Captivate Android Development] doctorbva:
Stick to the built-in Glitch (not even the one available for download). Note that the developer of Glitch is also Six and he told me (many pages ago) that he's tweaked the built in Glitch to work well with this ROM. My take.

I haven't visited the thread in awhile as I got my SGS3. But I do come back from time to time to see what is being said. It seems unanimous - This ICS ROM is the best!
[Captivate Android Development] adelecho:
I've run M6 for several days. It works great except that the battery drains faster in airplane mode than in normal mode.

Under Android OS, "keep awake" time is much longer. How can I find out what is keeping it awake? Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] brianray14:
I've reflashed and will test again with glitch. My phone and glitch have never gotten along well so i flashed devil as soon as the rom loaded up the first time. Will give it another go
[Captivate Android Development] melvinaury:
I just have a bad problem, let's see. Today my phone was locked by AT&T, when I notice I call cust. service and they said that my phone was reported stolen. I said how, I have the phone for over 1 year and 7 months. They said the IMEI # that I have was reported stolen, then I remember that when I flash one of the previous versions of AOKP my IMEI was change. The most weird is that gave my actual IMEI and AT&T said that the number it's not the one for a samy cappy.

I have a copy of my efs folder, but I copy the folder and reboot but the number continue to be the same. It's ther's a way to change or recover the original number.

Other issue is thay the Android OS is consuming a lot of battery, I consult in the bbs (better battet stats) thread, about the issue and post a dumb file. They said the the ussage are caused by the network stats causing a lot of awake call for long times.

Just to be clear I'm using my phone with Wifi, the problem is with the carrier that locked the device on the network.

I already try that, but as the op mention it don't work for locked device.
[Captivate Android Development] panda_mode:
Then unlock it. There should be some guides here or on youtube to show you how.
[Captivate Android Development] melvinaury:
I think I don't explain clear. Let me try.

Every cel phone has a IMEI # that is unique to that particular phone and with that phone the carrier indentify the phone. In my case my IMEI has change to other # that to be more weird the cust rept said that is not even for a samsung phone. For bad luck that IMEI number was reported stolen to AT&T and they proceed to lock the service to that IMEI#. That's why I don't have cel phone service, but I can use the phone like a Galaxy Play using Wifi.

The cust rept indicate to reset the phone and install the factory Rom to see if that correct the IMEI #.

Remember that AT&T or any carrier give support to custom ROM and less to IMEI lroblems. By law you can alter or change and IMEI number.:(:eek:
[Captivate Android Development] cyberbandit1998:
I had the same problem my phone was locked yesterday bout 4est. Called they said it was reported stolen also. I called customer service to get it unlocked . My iemi Att say does not exist in there system. After they verified the sim matches there info and I proved that this was my account and my phone they unlocked it and got a 130$ credit. He said it was something to do with an update that took effect last Fri.
[Captivate Android Development] cyberbandit1998:
Don't tell them anything about modified ROM. Info they don't need.
[Captivate Android Development] Zero4:
Worst case, if you have the original packaging you can get the IMEI number off the box.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
I backed up my original efs folder on my captivate the day I rooted it on 2.1. I always checked my imei against the one on the box after each flash and it never changed. For those of you who got a changed imei, what did you do? The only thing that ever got changed was my product code which I fixed myself. The issue never arose again.

[Captivate Android Development] tbrummell:
Or the sticker on the back of the phone under the battery.

I just compared mine and thankfully it still matches (although Rogers doesn't block IMEI's of personal stolen phones, just IMEI's of phones stolen from Rogers store's). I guess I should backup /efs before my next wipe & install. :good:
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
How in the world did you end up getting a $130 credit??? I had this happen to me two days ago and they said the same thing to them, and I was told a lot of people are having this issue and it has to do with a new system AT&T has just put in place. I looked up the IMEI that I have now on my phone which is different than it was on MIUI (I had a I9000 IMEI by default), and when I search it on google I get Samsung Galaxy S III pages, so maybe this Samsung Galaxy S III they have in the system is the reason this is happening. If you think about it, seeing the exact same phone IMEI maybe a hundred times looks fishy!
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Yeah, the problem lots of us are having in SG3 forums is that we don't know where to find the nv_data.bin or whichever file now contains our IMEI. The S3 attracted flocks of Android and XDA noobs who have no idea what they are doing and are now panicking because they have a changed IMEI after flashing a rom.

Anyone have a solution to freeing up more available RAM other than deleting apps? Would be nice if swap worked with this kernel :)

This rom feels a heck of a lot better than the Dark Knight one. Much more faster and smooth, however I see the screen slightly blurry... is there a way to tackle this? from the ROM settings menu maybe? I don't know if I could change the LCD density in any way that could help this...
[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
Blurry? What do you mean your screen is blurry? On mine the screen is sharp. Lol are you sure it not the time for you to get glasses? :p
[Captivate Android Development] bobapunk:
I used to think the Captivate screen was sharp...Then I got an SGS3...:)
[Captivate Android Development] rpgdev:
It's really curious to me the defensive/snide tone that people use here once you speak about performance or something not being so peachy. If I needed glasses I would've noticed the blurriness in all other roms don't you think?
[Captivate Android Development] theaudioguy:
He was only joking dude. But we need to know what kind of blurry. Is it the entire screen? Is it blurry on the boot animation? Give us some more detail.
[Captivate Android Development] rpgdev:
I'm talking about the screen one gets to use once the OS has loaded completely. It's slight but it is noticeable. For example, it's especially noticeable inside apps or widgets that have letters on white backgrounds. It's definitely not as crisp as I'm accustomed to.
[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
Dude I was joking about the glasses.:(

Try changing the color/gamma settings.
[Captivate Android Development] rpgdev:
LOL, sorry. Doesn't seem a color setting but I will poke around to make sure. Is there a software way to get into download mode on this ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
For the color settings go to Settings-> Device Options-> Color Turning. For a Software way to get into Download mode, try using this command with Terminal, "reboot download".
[Captivate Android Development] rpgdev:
I installed a terminal app and while it did reboot me it didn't boot me into download mode, before asking on this thread I tried the traditional ways: using the volume keys, adb (using the reboot download did reboot the OS also but it didn't boot into download mode), etc. And nothing seemed to work. How can I fix this? Have you tried getting into download mode on this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
Uhm yeah, by removing and re-adding the battery then keep on pressing both volumes keys and inserting the USB cable.

Low Memory Warning?

When I got a low memory warning I used a very versatile App called Super Manager to move some of the Apps to my External memory card.

This App did tell me which were safe to move, which were not, and which Apps it did not know if they were safe.

If I knew which stuff was safe to delete, I could go and do so with this App also.
[Captivate Android Development] rpgdev:
On which section of Super Manager could you do this?
[Captivate Android Development] sixstringsg:
As for download mode: adb reboot download doesn't work on ANY mtd ROMS for the galaxy s line. As for your issues with key combos, that has nothing to do with the ROM. That is purely the boot loader, which has nothing to do with the ROM.

[Captivate Android Development] brianray14:
with regard to moving apps to SD, ROM toolbox works quite well for this function as well as many others. In the start menu feature I've found that disabling certain apps or disabling certain aspects of an app that don't need to be running all the time helps with available RAM slightly as well. However, the best fix for me has been switching to devil kernel .72 and applying swap (sorry sixstring but multitasking is major must for me, had to do the devil)

I just downgraded to Build 27. This is the ONLY build that has working captivate buttons as notifications. Ever since I upgraded beyond Build 27 they stopped working. I dont know what was changed after this build, but the only noticeable bug is the NAV BAR. And that I know a work around to it. Hopefully JB has the captivate buttons working as notification lights when an official release comes out. I even tried some Cyanogenmod builds and nothing works except build 27 AOKP. Hopefully AOKP can incorporate this into a JB release.

Capacitive buttons as notification light worked for me on every build I tried. Try flashing Devil Kernel and see if they work. Be sure to grab one of the 2 Devil config apps to turn the option on.
[Captivate Android Development] bdithug:
I think I have found the issue with the capacitive buttons. It seems when I have the option "Screen Turn On" enabled in GO SMS Notification settings, the buttons do not work as a notification light. So if i want the notification light to work, when I get a text message, the screen stays off but the buttons light up. So i have to choose between the screen turning on to notify me of a text, or the screen staying off but the buttons lighting up. Weird because build 27 I could have that option enabled and the buttons would still stay lit so long as I had a text message. There must have been code that overrode all app settings when it came to the notification lights.

[Captivate Android Development] bdithug:
Absolutely. I like what CM does and everything they have done. But when I compare aokp ics to cm ics, aokp to me just have a much better feel and more customization IMO. I tried cm10 v6 and it was nice. But i had to downgrade back to aokpm6 for stability and day to day use.
[Captivate Android Development] CheesyNutz:
cmv10 is pretty freaking good no troubles other than music player crashing .

i see that the AOKP team are building nightlies nothing yet for the cappy
[Captivate Android Development] Lorddeff07:
You should try cm10v10. It will blow ur mind lol. And I'm a die hard aokp fan. I'm beginning to wonder if aokp takes CM and just improves on it. Though aokp is generally more feature rich. But CM are pushing out builds everyday that keep getting better and better but we don't even have 1 aokp JB build yet. Strange.

What kernel is working well for you guys on this rom? I have the default kernel and Hotspot doesn't work. I'll turn it on, and it immediately turns off.
[Captivate Android Development] M973:
I and others have had that problem as well. Semaphore kernel works, and I think I've heard devil as well. You might still need to toggle it on and off a few times.
[Captivate Android Development] Lorddeff07:
Don't get me wrong. I'm all for AOKP. I'm currently running CM10 on my phone but I still check this thread everyday lol. Its just that there really is an obvious difference between AOKPM6 and CM10. And what cm10 lacks are just minor things here and there that have never really been a focus for them.

Team AOKP should take all the time they want.

wipe data/Factory reset,wipe cache,advanced wipe dalvik cache went into bootloop.

Pull Battery and put back in

3 button to recovery

wipe data/Factory reset,wipe cache,advanced wipe dalvik cache and got installation aborted.

Did the procedure over again and still gor installation aborted.

Guess I'll download the rom again.

I followed that same logic and got an aborted install too. I then re-flashed JellyBro, then flashed six's build over that and it worked.

There are no official AOKP builds for the S3, the dev doing it released only one update for the ICS rom, and then moved onto JB without finishing up ICS completely. I would have liked to have a stable, fully working ICS build before waiting for a JB rom.
