I don't know how the wifi keeps stuck on/off and no access point in range on my phone everytime I flash the new build. No way to solve that problem except reboot the phone until it appears again.
[Captivate Android Development] CptTwinkie:
I'm on the 6/3 nightly and I was just looking at my power usage. IT'S AWESOME! The only thing using significant portions of power is the screen. Also the android system things that used to eat power are way down the list. Thank you devs!

[Captivate Android Development] truckmann:
Odd. I've been seeing the opposite since I flashed the 6/3 build. I've had it unplugged about 3 hours this morning with little use and I'm already down to 85% battery. Android OS is second on the list reporting 15% usage and screen is first with 34% .
[Captivate Android Development] SkyboneNoya:
Hey I'm on 06/04 build I still have wifi issue but something else. When I unplug my headphones after listening to music the music won't play out of my phone speaker.

Checked -

Volume

Wiped cache dalvik on install

Wiped saved data Apollo/Google play/DSL manager

used play music instead of Apollo

Disabled Apollo.

I think its system related idk. All other audio works fine out of the phone speaker.

Make sure it's turned on in display settings, and in NSTools and reboot, see if that fixes it...
[Captivate Android Development] RootTheMachine:
On the last couple of nightlies, I'm having issues writing to both SD cards. They can be read just fine, but from the phone I can't move/write/delete anything. It works fine over MTP and UMS though. Not sure why this issue happened or if related to anything.
[Captivate Android Development] killerxtreme:
I'm currently on Serendipity7 and I'm curious if I have to reflash to stock and then reflash a new gingerbread bootloader in order to get onto CM9..
[Captivate Android Development] Strugs:
I forgot to mention I'm using the stock CM9 kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] AtoZ0to9:
Is it enabled in both display settings and nstools and still saying not installed? If so, a kernal change will prob be needed...
[Captivate Android Development] skankdoggie:
I had this same problem with my phone on CM9 nightly from 6/5. The Wifi was turning on and off. A quick look at logcat showed this:

W/wpa_supplicant(16357): wlan0: Failed to initiate AP scan

I/wpa_supplicant(16357): wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-DRIVER-STATE HANGED

I/wpa_supplicant(16357): wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=00:00:00:00:00:00 reason=1

E/wpa_supplicant(16357): wpa_driver_nl80211_driver_cmd: failed to issue private commands

I was able to resolve the issue by going to System settings and opening Wifi settings. Press the menu button and go to advanced settings and change the "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" to "Never" and restarted the phone (mine was set to only when plugged in). After that my issues went away. After that, I was able to change the setting to whatever I wanted.

Hope this helps you.
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
My understanding is that the THS kernel is not compatible with BLN. LED notifications is included as part of CM. LED notifications does not support blinking, which is a good thing. Since the LEDs in our captivates do not support a "blink" command, apps like BLN make them blink by running a process that essentially tells the LEDs to "turn on, turn off, turn on..." over and over. This is an active process that can not run while the phone sleeps, so while the LEDs blink, your battery drains to run the process and by the phone being unable to enter deep sleep.

Use can use IcyGlitch / Semaphore or Devil and flash the CM9
[Captivate Android Development] sivextien:
I was on Cognition v5.2 last night, and successful update to CM9 0604 after overcame some issues and want to share these experiences for one who want to give CM9 a try :

1. Got error [7] when try to install CM9 from CWM Recovery ( already tried many times with 3 buttons recovery VolDown-Home-Power )

2. Decide to flash MyUI ICS as temp. solution

3. Install run ok but stuck on DevilKernel screen

4. Luckily can come to DevilKernel Recovery using VolUp-VolDown-Power

5. Install CM9 and finally got it installed and work smoothly without any issues.

For CM9 team : Big thank for your works
[Captivate Android Development] nimper:
No, you don't have to flash any bootloaders to get on CM9. In fact you should never flash a bootloader unless absolutely necessary (which will be very rare).
[Captivate Android Development] ThreeofNine:
I was on Serendipity 7 last year and moved to CM7 in October by following the instructions at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Captivate:_Full_Update_Guide

I did not need to go back to an AT&T stock version, but many phone owners have different results. Just follow every step in order and you should be able to flash the latest nightly of CM9 and enjoy ICS! Good luck!
[Captivate Android Development] energyracing:
Does anyone know why the naming format of the zip files on the nightlies changed? Does it mean anything or is it just time saving to shorten the filenames?
[Captivate Android Development] shane87:
There was a commit merged into cm9 recently that changes the file name for the final rom zip file. The change, for some reason, does not show up at cm-nightlies.appspot.com, but if you go to review.cyanogenmod.com and click the link that says "merged" you can see the commit, titled "Simplify ROM filenames/SNAPSHOTS/EXPERIMENTAL/plus other cleanups".
[Captivate Android Development] Primus76:
Yes. Just used AtomicFusion and will try again. Now I have the sad ATT boot screen :(.

mDNIe is mobile Digital Natural Image engine. It is Samsung's name for a software based (post process) image/contrast enhancement algorithm for LCD based displays (including AMOLED). DNIe (without the m) is available on almost all Samsung LCD TV's. Basically, it is preset settings for different display modes that change color and/or contrast.
[Captivate Android Development] spotdog14:
I have a couple things, first I cannot connect via USB to the SD card through the phone. And the second is that non of my contact pictures sync with the facebook pictures, am I missing something?

Also any reason why the keyboard gets all screwed up with I use LCD Density Changer?
[Captivate Android Development] ThreeofNine:
From my earlier post (#30) where I found in the teamhacksung CM9alpha thread post#4422:

"This is a common/known issue with the CyanogenMOD installer. Apex (Mosaic in your case) is an i9000 ROM, so your build.prop file identifies your phone as an i9000. The installer reads that, thinks you're trying to flash the Captivate version onto an i9000 phone and craps out. Your solution is to either manually edit your build.prop, flash any Captivate-based ROM first, then ICS or return to something stock with a CWM-enabled kernel.

Any of those should fix your build.prop file, and you should be able to flash without issue then."
[Captivate Android Development] RootTheMachine:
I forget if MTP is enabled as default on this ROM, but if that is the case, you won't get a "USB Connected" notification on your phone when you plug it in. It will be automatically connected and will show up on the computer eventually.

Facebook still hasn't updated their app to work with the new API, so native Facebook sync won't work in any non-patched ROM. I highly recommend Haxsync, it does the same thing very well, and offers sync options, while Facebook's app doesn't offer any options at all. It's very well worth its price, and I would continue to use it even if Facebook sync worked.

Question about bootloaders?

Sorry for taking up the space, I have found the answer after searching.
[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
Did you check into the option "Don't keep activities" that kill the app process as soon as when you leave it? Check again the "Background process limit" too.
[Captivate Android Development] voldomart13:
No I haven't touched those settings but its weird its like I hit the back button too many times and it just goes staright to my previous app. It doesn't kill it it just goes straight to it.

Trebuchet and photocamera crashed because I had not installed Gapps... I've noticed no more random reboots. The only reboots there are when I try (i.e.) to see a video recorded (720p) or when I try to get into Settings menù (it happens only sometimes). Have you something to suggest??

Just had my haptic drop off really faint. It was really strong, I liked it, then out of the blue it has really decreased in intensity. Running the latest nightly. Thanks in advance.

Edit: reboot seems to have fixed it.
[Captivate Android Development] fireflyv2:
Hi guys :)

I just upgraded my phone from stock froyo to CM9.. Predictably, my modem did not automatically connect, since froyo modems are not compatible with ICS.

I've tried the KB3 and the KF1 as well as the KJ1 modems, which supposedly work with i9000 but was unable to connect to the network.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

I came from Legend 4 ICS KK4. Flashed the latest CM9 ROM together with Devil2 kernel and everything works fine and smoothly. One problem is cant seem to find the "My Files" app.

Well I suggest you must be on stock kk4 before flashing the latest nightly. That's what I did and everything seems to look great :)

[Captivate Android Development] ThreeofNine:
I didn't go back to 2.2 or 2.3 when I went to CM7.2 from Serendipity 7. I'd try the CM instructions 1st. If you have problems then go back to 2.3 (official AT&T KK4 version)
[Captivate Android Development] killerxtreme:
Hmm, k I'm on ICS.. Its pretty slick, however I can't seem to get a phone signal.. It'll be there sometimes, but then when I go to actually use it, it seems to die out.. Dunno why..

[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
Thanks for your solution. But it seem to be not effective to me. I've tried each of these options but the wifi keeps tuck with issues: after a reboot wifi will work ok, but after phone sleep or restart, wifi can't find any access point in range. I've tried the wifi sleeping policy with each possible option (always/only when plugged-in/never).
[Captivate Android Development] killerxtreme:
I can't seem to find the option to put a call on ignore, I'm actually really missing being able to long press a number that has called me and instantly putting it on ignore, nor an easy way to start messaging someone, I really liked, and miss being able to swipe one way on a contacts name to call them, then swipe the other way to message them.. I'm sure these are probably things to do with ICS itself, tho is there any way to get these features back?

Also whats with contacts and the people app? I really like the contacts page when you go into the phone app portion where its kinda dark and got that blue in it, however the only app that your allowed to go in or add to your page for contacts is that people one, which is really bright white and quite ugly..

Anyone else have this problem? I'm on the new version 06/08 still no volume on music out of phone speaker. Although, everything else plays fine. I couldn't answer calls when playing music through headphones on 06/04 either.

Im just wondering why Im getting force close on some HD apps like Spiderman Total mayhem. I wonder if its an issue on the external sd card because the data file is in there. You guys got an opinion on this?

I noticed too that my internal sd is named emmc. Which is before i switched to cm9 the emmc is the external sd
[Captivate Android Development] xxsxx:
I've never had issues with the location of the data files, but have never tried that particular game, either.

You can go to Settings>Storage, tap menu and bring up an option for storage configuration to change default emmc behavior. (you can make it the 'correct' way) I did this as soon as they put this in so my Captivate finally wasn't backwards from all my other devices.

don't know If this counts as a bug, but using the volume rocker when inside the dialer app changes media volume instead of ringer volume (at least that's what I expect it to do) .

Lot of problems

Latest builds have a lot of problems (yesterday and today builds). Wifi is not turning on properly the slider runs back and forth by itself. Sometimes it even reboots when starting wifi. My phone even rebooted when an alarm rang in the morning. Most unstable of nightly builds. Please fix these. BTW great changes! The weather and calendar on lockscreen rock! About the new boot animation.. Well the last one was better :-P

you can buy the unlock code off ebay for 99 cents. if you flash alot it is well worth it. but i think it's worth it regardless.

It's long message. I'm using Semaphore kernel. I think, it has problem. I try it with glitch kernel. I post again if it doesn't work.

just thought I'd let you guys know that I'm running the 28/5 nightly and am quite happy. :)

at one point I flashed the 29/5, but I got high battery drain so I went back, and that's also the point where people started reporting wifi and other problems.

also I'm one of the people that gets sleep deaths, but I'm running glitch with the min freq. set to 200mHz, which seems to give me far less sleep deaths than the stock kernel...

Yay. I see the new "evil Cid" mascot in today's (6/11) boot animation.

On my first boot, I was finally bitten by the continuous wifi on/off bug others have reported earlier (I couldn't get logcat output), but I did have 3G.

On my second boot, I didn't have wifi OR 3G enabled, but I was able to then manually toggle wifi back on, and 3G returned about 5 minutes later.

And on the 3rd day of christmas, everything was just peachy.
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
I also have the wifi issue you describe and in addition to that have no audible notifications. Have tried resetting the profiles and toggled different notification tones.
[Captivate Android Development] ap1618:
hmm looks like I shouldn't update from 5/26 nightly...
[Captivate Android Development] smbyers:
I'm on the 6/10 build and having the wifi problem. ugh. Hopefully a fix soon...
[Captivate Android Development] bentonhall:
The audible notifications can be fixed by setting up a profile that has ringtone and notification values configured and vibrate notifications configured as well. Now audible and vibrate notifications are working correctly.

On another note. I also noticed that while setting up a profile, I was in a location that had no signal and my phone kept rebooting until I put it in airplane mode.
[Captivate Android Development] :
I've been wondering about this for awhile but do none of you use simtoolkit? I'm planning to sell my Cappy and the non functioning simtoolkit might force me to take it to stock just for that option to be available, my carrier (Safaricom) offers many services that require a working toolkit. Anyone know why its not prioritized or is it that hard fixing it?

[Captivate Android Development] jerkysh:
No, but there's an app for that, look for exDialer & Contacts in the play store :)
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
If you like Touchwiz, perhaps you should try TWICS. This is CyanogenMod. CM has a standard feature set across all phones. CM on the Captivate is the same as CM on any other phone. There will never be any OEM or carrier specific features included on CM unless those features are open sourced and make sense to put on all phones (such as the T-Mobile theme engine which is part of CM).

In the case of slide to dial/slide to sms, those are features of the Samsung TW dialer. It is possible that CM could put similar features in their dialer someday, but since it has never previously been a part of CM, it can't be "brought back."

Does anyone has the problem that the Wi-Fi won't turn off during sleep even when set 'Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep' to Never with Nightly 12/6?
[Captivate Android Development] ScottyNuttz:
I am having this issue. Someone suggested checking the Safe headset volume setting, and I have that disabled, but I still have the issue.

Most of the time if I connect to bluetooth audio or start playing through my headphones, the volume has reset itself to 'Mute'. It's very frustrating.
[Captivate Android Development] ap1618:
guys,

I used 90callvol script to increase the in-call volumes... but is there a similar way to increase the regular speaker ringtone volumes?

thanks
[Captivate Android Development] bnevets27:
Well "Swipe Sideways Across The Notification Bar To Control Screen Brightness" was a Samsung TW feature which is OEM and IS on CM. So not really true at all....
[Captivate Android Development] nimper:
That feature is open source (independently coded) and it makes sense to include it on all phones. It also owns pretty hard.

We also have T9 dialing, another Touchwiz feature.
[Captivate Android Development] bnevets27:
Ok I'll rephrase it.

"There will never be any OEM or carrier specific features included on CM" = False

"unless those features are open sourced and make sense to put on all phones." = True

It's kinda hard for that sentence to make any sense really when it contradicts itself.
[Captivate Android Development] ap1618:
how do i increase speaker volume? does volume+ work?
[Captivate Android Development] sivextien:
Thank Jerkysh. I try exDialer and it got the slide to SMS/Call as I need.
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
Perhaps you should take a course on the English language. "Unless" is a conjunction that ties the two ideas/sentences/groups together as in "Not X unless Y." Example: "it will not rain unless it is cloudy."

The sentence as originally written makes perfect sense and is absolutely true.

"There will never be any OEM or carrier specific features included on CM unless those features are open sourced and make sense to put on all phones." = true

Another way of saying this is that closed source features of OEM frameworks such as TouchWiz, Sense, MotoBlur, etc, will not be included in CyanogenMod. However, if a feature of an OEM framework become open sourced, or an open source alternative is developed, then it is possible that the feature will be integrated into CyanogenMod.

If you want swipe to dial/swipe to sms, then write the code to support it and submit it to CyanogenMod's git hub.
