There might be a better place to ask this but I've been looking at the Apollo music player and have noticed it is having problems loading the photos for the album covers. Is anyone else noticing this? Google play displays them fine.

Just installed the new nightly and I checked the battery settings to see how my battery is being used up and AndroidOS is at 47%! I have not had this on any other build.

it's on get.gm (which is up and down at the moment). Just to the left of the link to direct download and to the right of the rom manager link
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
As you say, get.cm has had problems, yesterday I could not download the nightly. For some reason the torrent didn't work for me either, so I used the goo.im (formerly goo-inside.me) mirror and it worked great. http://goo.im/cm/captivatemtd/nightly

In the battery usage screen, what is the difference between "Android System" and "android OS"?
[Captivate Android Development] pintek:
There are a couple of apps i'd recommend freezing with Titanium backup that may lead to extra battery drain (froze these apps on my vibrant when i noticed excess drain an had them frozen on my cappy aswell when battery was lasting less then normal)

Also with cpu watchdog my cpu usage dropped a bit more after freezing these items

Storage Bug

I got the dreaded low on storage notification. I have seen the datadata fix for other ROMs, do we have anything specific to this ROM, or will one of the fixes for other ICS ROMs work here too?

My phone is running stock everything.
[Captivate Android Development] airtower:
Is anyone else having issues with market apps updating? For some time now, I get the notification that some of my apps have updates, and i choose to update all (i don't do automatic updates because I like to know what's changed). The process starts, and some apps drop out of the updating list but the whole process will just hang with no apps being updated.

Seems to be better on WiFi as opposed to 3G. I have the same problem on my CM9 equipped touchpad as well.
[Captivate Android Development] MechaGen:
I've noticed the same thing for several weeks on my Captivate & Nook Color, both on CM9. My icona tab on stock ICS does not display the same behavior. When you select "update all" it updates all.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
I notice this all the time, the trick is to not let the device go to sleep during updating apps.

Reviews?

Hey,

First: it would be awesome if there was an easy way to view how many people were having positive experiences with different ROMs and or had an easy way to discern how stable different ROMS are.

That said, are many of you running this build 24-7? And if so, how is it performing for you?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] melvinaury:
The best ROM that I install in my Capy since day one. It's my daily driver.

It's best to try for you're self and made you own conclusions. Don't take me wrong. My point is that not two persons like's the same ROMS. An example I'm running ICS, but my wife prefer stock kk4.:confused::eek:

I'm actually seeing the same problem, and sometimes the few thumbnails that have been loaded get all mixed up between albums/artists while browsing up and down the list :S where are these thumbnails being downloaded from? is there a way to use custom thumbnails stored on the phone (something a bit more hi-res :p)

is anyone else having problems with incredibly slow usb transfer speeds and 3g speeds? I'm talking like 8-10 mins to move a 400mb file from computer to phone.... I know the build i'm using is about 2-3 weeks old. Will updating to the newest build fix either of these issues?

Also a nooby question....will updating to the newest build get rid of all my widgets and apps?

Thanks!

uh oh!
[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
The latest nightly 20120530 seem to be unstable a the earlier versions. After update it (as the way as I've done many times: wipe cache/dalvik/bstt then install update file), first time boot, I have problem with wifi, phone's wifi enable and disable fast and continuously. I reboot the phone and the wifi seem to be normal again, enable ok but it can not see any wifi access point in range but a know exactly that there is at least some access point around here and my tablet still connect to one of them. Any one meet the same problem with me?

After try to flash the nightly again, the problem still remain, wifi on/of continuously. :sad:
[Captivate Android Development] Primus76:
Downloading it now and will try and report back.
[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
Still waiting for someone's report. I've re-downloaed and re-flash one more time, now the phone can't see any wifi ap in range :(

Now I will wipe data factory reset and flash again, the last solution :(
[Captivate Android Development] Primus76:
No problem on my end. Sorry. Try a Android restore or just restore wifi?
[Captivate Android Development] Drakh:
I had the same problem on first boot, fast wifi turn on/off; but next boots are fine, I can connect to my AP with no problem.
[Captivate Android Development] ThaPirato:
SWEET!T Thanks to the Devs for keeping this phone alive :P i just rooted my friends Captive on 2.2 then flashed the fw & this kicka$$ ROM and must say i like it very much,Thanks for everything & as posted above me, i too had the WiFi bug but rebooted & it was fixed ;-)
[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
No time to factory reset and setup the phone again completely because of my work, I delete all saved AP, wipe cache/dalvik and reboot phone. It seem to work normally up to now.
[Captivate Android Development] BumRush:
I'm not sure if I am just remembering wrong, but I recall the phone app rotating while in landscape mode. It doesn't seem to be doing it anymore. AM I thinking of another rom or am I just missing something in the settings?
[Captivate Android Development] billyjed:
There should be a setting in the dialer menu to enable the option.

Back to nightly 20120529 which is more stable to me up to now.
[Captivate Android Development] cjpp78:
After flashing back to 20120529 from the 20120530, I still now have wifi issues.
[Captivate Android Development] nycmon:
Is anyone else having issues with the phone speakers? Speakers will suddenly go mute and I can't get it to work even with a reboot. I have to wait For the phone to decide to turn it back on. Really random. And a pain in the ass.......
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
Remove the back of your phone, place it face down on a clean, flat surface, then press down firmly on the speaker to reseat it. This is a common problem that is usually easily resolved.
[Captivate Android Development] scidon37:
If that doesn't fix it, you might have to remove the shell of your phone and loosen the screw holding down the speaker. That's what I had to do. There's a thread all about it http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1351278&highlight=speaker+screw.
[Captivate Android Development] nycmon:
holy crap...that worked lol XD

THANKS!

good to know if the previous solution stops working...

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
The earlier (the first) 20120529 (or 20120528) will not meet the wifi problem. I'm sure because I've tested wifi problem with each of build from 28 to 31 with full wipe. :)
[Captivate Android Development] nycmon:
here's another speaker issue I have since switching to cm9...the speaker volumes are SO LOW! Is there a way to tweak the audio volumes for the phone speakers?
[Captivate Android Development] account4me2:
It didn't fix sleep deaths for me...

Trying 29/5 next...
[Captivate Android Development] nok6100:
Only way I know of at this time is to use icy glitch kernel B14 beta 6 and edit the 90callvol script in the etc/init folder with root explorer to boost those volumes. Reboot after editing the script. A search should guide you with the info on how to get it done.

I have been using that kernel and it really helped with those volumes. Any further info you need feel free to PM me.
[Captivate Android Development] ap1618:
I haz question... if we are on the glitch kernel, and want to flash a nightly update, would it flash ok, even though its not the stock kerenel?

do we need to disable anything in the kernel?

would the nightly update overwrite the current kernel with the stock kernel?

thanks
[Captivate Android Development] shaker2k:
When you flash a ROM the kernel will change to what ever kernel came with the ROM. You can always change the kernel after.
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
You can boost the volume through the dsp manager.

I don't know if cm9 has the same behavior as cm7, but it used to be with cm7 on the captivate, if your volume was too low, you could flash stock, put all volumes to max, then reflash cm7 and all the volumes would be louder. It might be worth a try with cm9.
[Captivate Android Development] cjpp78:
Thanks, yeah I switched back to 20120528 and no wifi issues. Hope they get it fixed in next build. How long does this usually go on before reaching a stable? well these nightly builds are pretty much stable but a official stable.
[Captivate Android Development] jerkysh:
what about the latest nightly update-cm-9-20120603-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd-signed.zip , does it have any issues?
[Captivate Android Development] tkjeeper:
Back to this rom after a while, love the way this rom is going! No wifi issues here, running devil kernel, awesome work all involved!
[Captivate Android Development] zmore:
Just flashed & booted it ~5 mins ago. No problems here, WiFi or other, but then I rarely ever have any problems with this ROM. (pebkac)
[Captivate Android Development] SkyboneNoya:
I just upgraded from 05/29 to 06/03 with cache/dalvik wipe and wifi was turning on and off. Funny as it's the first time I ever tried to flash with my wifi on.

All I did was restore my TiBu wifi access points (saved prior to flashing) - reboot and everything is fine.
[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
So the 20120603 still meet the wifi issues. At my point, If you meet the wifi issues (on/off) on first time boot, a reboot will temporary solve it, but you will meet it again, I had the same problem. The last build which I know that not meet the wifi issues is the first 20120529 (released at 2012-05-29 09:25:38).
[Captivate Android Development] tkjeeper:
It's your issue, no wifi issues here. Wipe and reflash
[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
Many times I've tried, included fullwiped. Some peoples meet the same problem to me. I've flashed every build as soon as it released, by the same way follow the installation instruction. But the older builds from 20120529 do not have this problem. So do you have any advice to me except reflash? :(
[Captivate Android Development] cjpp78:
I flashed the 2nd 20120529, 530 and 531 all several times. All had wifi issues every time I flashed. went back 20120528 and no more wifi issues.
[Captivate Android Development] billyjed:
Maybe try Odin to stock and then flash newest nightly without restoring any settings our apps from tibu. . .
[Captivate Android Development] thangphysk48:
Working on newest build without any problem. Just back to stock, after that flash newest build, before restart, flash gapps immediately.
[Captivate Android Development] leoingle:
I'm on the 5/22 nightly and everything is working perfectly on it except for one thing. When the screen turns off (whether it be me doing it manually with the power button or timeout) the capacitive buttons light up and stay on. Once the screen comes on, they go back off, if i hit any of them while the screen is on, they stay on for about 2 seconds then turn off, like they are supposed to. But as soon as the screen goes off, they are back on. I enabled automatic brightness and they started working right, but as soon as i rebooted, they were back to turning on when the screen goes off. And automatic brightness WAS still enabled after reboot for anybody curious about that. Anybody seen this?
[Captivate Android Development] sa1yan:
Lol just making sure, do you know what back light notifications or bln are?
[Captivate Android Development] leoingle:
Not really, I usually have always had HTC phones and by googling that, it looks to be a Samsung thing. I did just disable the notification light under display and it stays off now.
[Captivate Android Development] Snow.Goose:
BLN is the equivalent of having an LED to tell you that you have notifications(ie: missed call, message.)

That's pretty much it. Anyways, I'm using the 6/3/2012 nightly, and everything is fine and dandy. I never wipe cache, just straight up flash, and I haven't ran into any problems yet.
[Captivate Android Development] CptTwinkie:
5/29 to 6/3. Backup, wipe cache + dalvik cache, double flash (got bit by a bad flash before) and all is as it should be.

I was looking for some of these changes that have been committed over the last few days. Not implemented yet or what?

Sent from my CM9 Captivate
[Captivate Android Development] Primus76:
Quick note. Maybe something to try. I'm not using the modem that came with the rom. Have you tried changing to one good for your area? Or just reflashing the same modem if the stock one is OK?
[Captivate Android Development] SkyboneNoya:
Or you can try what I mentioned a page back, I upgraded from 05/29 to 06/03 I got the wifi problem.

All I did was restore my Titanium Backup Wi-Fi Access Points and it fixed the problem. Maybe try this out?

Everyone that has mentioned TiBu to be bad has probably not noticed there are key backup/restores that are in green letters, I figured it was the OKAY feature. And I've never had trouble restoring these options like bookmarks, access points etc.

Thanks in advance for any help provided.

I got the wifi issue as well with the 6/3 nightly. Off and on, off and on. I'm going back to 5/29

i never have wifi issues, because i use Wifix
[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
Back to stock UCKK4, then flash nightly 20120603, meet wifi issues on first boot, reboot and wifi works fine up to now. I also met force closed with some applications, sometimes the phone is not responding and auto reboot.

Update: wifi issues come back to me after a reboot and more force closed appear when running apps. Sad and back to 0529 build.
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
Just to throw my 2cents into the mix. Flashed 20120603, from AOKP. Have no wifi issues at all. Working great for me. Have one minor issue when I run Portable Hotspot. When I first turn it on, it will shut itself off right away, but when I turn it on again, it stays on

I have this same issue. I think it is related to exchange server version, mine stopped sending emails after the company switched to Exchange 2010, exchange 2007 worked fine.
[Captivate Android Development] airtower:
It can't hurt. I've flashed all but a handful of nightlies since they started coming out and never had a broken build. It may not fix your problem, but it's unlikely it will leave you with an unusable phone. The development is at the point where it's mostly small tweaks and polishing at this point.

...6/04 will not get you the new boot animation though :D
[Captivate Android Development] Katze Pavilion:
Thanks for your advice. I don't scare about it will brick my phone. But as my previous posts, I have wifi issues from the 0529 nightly up to now, included wifi on/off issues and no access point in range. I use wifi everyday so I can't stand with this problem. I don't know if this nightly help me solve my problem and confused should or should not try it. If wifi keep stuck unstable, I have to back to the old build again.
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
That has been a minor bug since the CM7 days. Since it doesn't affect any functionality and all you have to do is turn it back on, I doubt it is a high priority to figure out a fix for.
[Captivate Android Development] JigsterNL:
Wow, the last 5 builds I'm having a lot sudden power offs(like 10-15 times a day). I just use my phone, put it in lock screen state and when I try to unlock it, it has turned itself off. Very very annoying

I was having this problem recently. It wasn't off though. The screen just wouldn't come on. Usually if I waited a minute or two it would work. If not I pulled the battery. I haven't had the issue on 6/3

[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
I'd try a factory reset from CWM Recovery before starting over from an AT&T ROM. Just be aware that a factory reset will bring your phone to a state that is like a fresh CM9 install (meaning you will lose your apps and data).
[Captivate Android Development] Bdev3:
The 20120604 nightly disables background wifi scanning, "which may be causing problems for some users." It's the first nightly in awhile that I didn't have to reboot to stop the wifi button from rapidly switching on and off upon first install. Also didn't have any random reboots today, which I've had on recent nightlies. Liking this ROM!
[Captivate Android Development] sa1yan:
Damn, that means I actually have to go into settings for it to connect to wifi? ;(
[Captivate Android Development] maizein:
I'm on the same boat here, need a factory reset too :(

The problem is, I unlocked my Cappy using Galaxy S Unlock, which according to the developer, the app unlocks the device by "patch" nv_data files.

I'm afraid if I do a factory reset or even flash a new nightly I'll lose the sim unlock (never did a factory reset or flashed a new nightly after I unlocked my cell).

Any thoughts?
[Captivate Android Development] AtoZ0to9:
The ROM won't tamper with your EFS folder, and neither will a factory reset... If a ROM ever does, it wasn't meant to, just be sure to always have a backup of the efs folder...
[Captivate Android Development] sa1yan:
^Exactly. EFS is kept away when wiping/installing Cyanogenomd anyways. But if you're still scared, you can always unlock after the wipe anyways..
[Captivate Android Development] JigsterNL:
Thank you(and all others) for replying.

In the past I flashed kk4 roms, after that I flashed cm9 alpha over it and now I'm on this cm9(for 1-2 months).

Is it OK to backup my apps with their data through Titanium Backup or should I just reinstall everything again?

Thanks in advantage
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
It is okay to back them up, but I recommend re-installing your apps from the Play Store and only using TiBU to restore the data. Some people have noticed space issues in /datadata if they restore apps from TiBU.
