I installed this ROM then used TiBu to restore m y apps. Most of them force close now as soon as I start the app. Any reason as to why?

I followed the instructions in the original post. I am coming off Doc's V12. Wipe cache/factory reset, clear dalvik, wipe cache, format system then installed the ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] sa1yan:
You don't need to format system anymore. Try restoring those apps without data. Its a Titanium issue that occurs sometimes.

Probably my fault, but reporting anyway

Greetings-

LOVE this rom. But I have one problem that is probably self-inflicted.

When I try to flash TRusselo's essentials pack (referenced in the OP), I see some errors later in the script (during the morph phase IIRC). Then it hangs during the rom boot animation. The only way I've been able to get my phone working again is to do a battery pull to get back to recovery, and then reflash the ROM.

Since nobody has reported this behavior, I think it's because I formatted System and then, prior to 1st boot, I flashed the 20120429 gapps (matches AOKP b38). This ROM has been flawless for me except for this.

Thoughts/ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] dchawk81:
Actually a lot of people had problems due to a wipe of system.
[Captivate Android Development] dalewest:
Ya... methinks the only reason I didn't get bootloops is because I flashed gapps prior to first boot.

Guess my next step is to reflash it all the right way. Just not looking forward to manually resetting all of my settings. Gets tedious after 100 or so, ya know?
[Captivate Android Development] mbonus:
Nice clean rom, thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] dave71670:
If you look at the op it says essentials are already included. Follow instructions below that and you should be good.
[Captivate Android Development] sa1yan:
You don't need to flash gapps or essentials. I think I left some things out on the essentials. When I make the last update, I will make sure everything is perfect, but you don't need to flash anything special to make this ROM work. Just wipe data and flash away.
[Captivate Android Development] dchawk81:
I hear ya. I usually skip the reset part but this time around I did it and it smoothed out the overall performance.
[Captivate Android Development] iFalcon:
I flashed the V6 version of this last night without issue. However, under goodies it mentions the following yet I don't have them. Any ideas?

I don't think fast charge is working. I enabled it and it supposedly locks out the phone but I can still do everything.

Its working just fine. Its not suppose to lock you out of your phone, it just prevents using data cable for anything more than charging. You're fine. :thumbup:

Can anyone recommend something or change of settings to make this rom boot faster, other than Autorun Manager.

Recently bought another Cappy running stock 2.2 and it's boot time is light speed compare to this ROM. Of course, anything else is much slower afterward.
[Captivate Android Development] dchawk81:
Do you have it set to do things (clear cache, zip align, etc) at startup? That might slow it down.

System Settings > ROM Control > Startup Tweaks
[Captivate Android Development] e20140:
None of that.

This ROM V6 cold boots all the way to media scan complete at 1:30 while Froyo 2.2 only takes 1 minute.

I have already removed most of the startup programs from this ROM while the Froyo cappy has all the bloatware.
[Captivate Android Development] proper69:
Does boot up time really matter that much? Turn your phone on in the morning, go take a **** or pee or brush your teeth. Boom phones booted up. I find that ICS takes longer to boot, but man is it smooth!

If I noticed such things I too would be wondering if I had some settings making it that way.

[Captivate Android Development] e20140:
I know I am. This is a superfast ROM. Did some more testing with a flash copy of the ROM and looks like it's a ICS thing - more ram hungry than Froyo. No way around it.
[Captivate Android Development] dchawk81:
I never thought about it before but it seems more stuff gets cached right away. That's probably the reason for the longer boot and faster performance once it's going.
[Captivate Android Development] sa1yan:
Yea all Gingerbread + roms are more ram hungry than froyo. But that's because froyo terribly lacks in graphics. Gingerbread is a bit better, and ics is ultimate. The good thing is that these ics kernels can give you up to 400mb of ram which is a 70mb boost from froyo. So it kinda makes up for the increased ram usage. And it hasn't affected me that much...
[Captivate Android Development] e20140:
Agree. But I now got it to boot in less than a minute, same as Froyo. ;)

I notice something about the Baseband version is different on 2 different cappys flashed the same ROM. Is that possible or the modem is not being flashed?
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
do tell:)
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I don't know what's up with it on mine. It is constantly closing various apps, saying unexpected error, etc. Gets real slow, need to close all apps.

But, I have a GS3 ordered, so don't guess I"ll chase it. I'll set it up with a fresh load before I sell it.

Worked great for quite a while. I just don't understand why it all of a sudden is problemetic.

Check the free space on /datadata

Either use the DiskUsage app or run the "df datadata" command on a terminal app.

[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Thank you sir. I bet you are right. I'm downloading Disk Usage now.

I did a quick search, and it looks like the fix is to identify which apps are using most, and move those to SD. Sound about right?

[edit]

Hmmm...its so bad that Disk Usage bombs out before it can even report. I'll have to piddle a bit and see if I can get it going.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Do you have adb set up?

Connect your phone and type:

Adb shell

Df datadata

[Captivate Android Development] e20140:
Here's what I did:

1. Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache before flashing, even if you are on previous zSimplyAOKP or other ICS ROM.

2. Disable bootanimation or replace bootanimation.zip with a more efficient one.

I tested bootanimation blue android.zip which seems to be only added 5 sec. I can't remember where I got it, just google.

You should try step 2 first to see it helps. I replace it with the original Galaxy animation and the boot time increased by 20 seconds!

Interestingly, the boot time does not increase by much even with tons of program restored from Ti-backup. Fully loaded and boot right at 1 minute.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
To get anything done, I moved several apps randomly to SD. AT least it is now not failing. I do have a notice in the Notification window of low ram.

I had an older version of ADB set up, which worked on my non ICS ROMS (been quite a while since I used.)

The ADB does not recognize my phone as being attached. I do have debugging turned on. I installed the 18 version, and it too doesn't recognize it. My phone is seen for sharing folders when I select to do that on the phone.

I suspect I need to install other drivers. I downloaded drivers found from page pointing me to the latest ADB stuff. Trying right now to figure out how to install them. I'm thinking maybe I find the original drivers in devices and try to update.

BTW...I did run Diskusage, but can't really figure out anything from what it shows. And I ran a Terminal emulator, but the text is so small I can't hardly read it.

So heading over now to check on installing the drivers.

[EDIT]

Good news is with moving several apps to SD, it isn't closing apps at the moment. Bad news is that I'm not having luck installing new drivers, or getting ADB to recognize phone attached, and the notification window still has the low memory notification.

[EDIT 2]

I'm not sure what to think. When I go into Settings/Storage, I see this:

Internal Storage: 1.85GB; Apps 294MB; Available 1/58MB

USB Storage: Varilous things listed; Available 7.91GB

SD Card: Total 14.83GB; Available 9.02GB

FYI...no progress on ADB. I have moved more apps to SD.

I just tried to install CoPilot. IT says: Error: Anm error has occurred: ONe or more files could not be unpacked. Check available storage space.

So, Is there something other than above list for space? I do still have the warning in the Nav bar about being low on space.
[Captivate Android Development] bobapunk:
With the latest version (Simply AOKP 6) the HSPA option in the Galaxy S settings is grayed out. Is that how it's supposed to be? I'm pretty sure it was selectable in Simply AOKP 4.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
I believe you need the nexus drivers for adb to work on ICS, or at least I vaguely remember switching to them when I upgraded to ICS.

Anyways, run DiskUsage, select [root required] and then select /datadata

It'll graph out the contents of the partition and show you what using the most space.

[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Thanks for the input Pizzown3d. I have done that, but just don't have the knowledge of what to do what what I'm seeing. There are blue and brown columns. Most of the things listed, I don't see what I could do. Among things listed are databases, cache, browser, libs. The largest item is .com.android.prdoviders.media, at 15.3mb, and another that size called external.db.

I can say that I have moved a lot of apps to SD, and the apps ending has stopped...but still have the low space warning.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
You should be looking at something like this:

The second column represents the app's folders and the sub columns to the right those represent what is inside those app folders.

If you don't know what the folders represent, you can probably Google them easily.

My issue with the essentials add on was not a bootloop, it was with nova launcher. Had to reinstall the ROM, select apex as default then flash the essentials pack.

The essentials has different icons, center date and theme that the ROM does not have. I was having issues with apps force closing, this was an issue with tibu, fixed by installing apps without data. ROM is installed, will test for a few days then report back.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Thank you so much...

Seeing your free space, I realized I had not scrolled down all the way. I just did that, and find I have double the free space of your graphic above: 107MB.

So, if you are not getting the 'Low on Space warning', then something else must be wrong with my phone.

As I noted earlier, the app blow ups have stopped. But, one issue that is strange: I downloaded Copilot (which I purchased quite some time ago), and when I try to launch it, it tries to unpack files, and it fails, telling me to check storage space.

I'm wondering if I need to format everything and do a complete new reload or something.

As noted in my post above, I seem to have a lot of space on the SD cards:

Free space..

Internal Storage: 1.57GB

Internal SD: 7.87GB

External SD: 9.02GB

DataData: 107MB

One thing good: since moving the apps to SD, it is running smoother and better.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Internal Storage isn't very relevant anymore (as all AOSP/AOKP based roms store app data on /datadata), and the other's just refer to your SDcards' space.

If you're still having issues with certain apps, I'd recommend reinstalling them via tibu as I was having a similar issue on AOKP B39 the past few days with a few apps FCing. I literally tried everything I could think of... except reinstalling the apps.

Do you know how to get a logcat?
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
The only 'issues' I am having is

The message in the Notifications bar about being low on space. Given my space readings, I'm not sure why I would have that message

CoPilot not installing, giving error about storage space.

On CoPilot, my first attempts were with a restored CoPilot from TIBU. I have in fact downloaded a newer version and having same results.

On the logcat, I'm not sure how to do it, but I probably can find that via Google. I'll give that a try, and once I have it, I'll upload it here. Although, if it requires me using ADB, as noted in an earlier post, I've been unsuccessful getting ADB to see my phone at all.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Reboot into recovery and wipe your dalvik-cache and cache partitions, that will probably get rid of the notification (sometimes just a reboot by itself will do it if you have cleared enough space). With CoPilot, you're probably having the same issue I had. Wipe the data, then uninstall it and restore the app only. If not, you'll have to post a LogCat, which doesn't require a PC.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Actually I have already wiped dalvic and cache partitions. But, I'll do it again.

I have also tried wiping copilot and reinstalling. That was when I downloaded the newer version. But I'll do that again too.

WHile messing with it a few minutes ago, I had a notification come up in the Notification bar that the SD car was damaged and needed to be reformatted. I rebooted, and that message disappeared. I'm thinking of copying all SD card to PC, then formatting the SD, and copying back. Will this cause problems with anything?

Oh, and I got the logcat with catlog from the market. It is attached.

[EDIT]

FYI...just did the Dalvic and cache cleanup...still have the error message. I'm not sure which memory it is referring to. I'll do a search and see if I can get info on that. On, and I did have some apps FC again.

[EDIT2]

I found this post about this type of issue. Supposedly the low space message is referring to the datadata area. Although, it looks to me like percentage wise, I have a lot left.

What are your thoughts about going down the path based on that post?
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
was the format issue anything like this? W

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1447303

If so, you don't want to format it.

Well, after looking at the logcat, I can only say that you don't have the same issue I was having =\

Try sending the logcat to the developer, I'm pretty scrub at reading logcats and linux in general. There's not much I can do from here on out to help you other than suggest going back to stock and reflashing =\

edit: You shouldn't have the low storage issue if you really have ~100mb free on datadata, because that's where the notification comes from. The only thing I can suggest is maybe uninstalling the problem apps, then reflashing the rom after clearing caches again and finally reinstall the apps w/out data. If that doesn't solve your problems, then try going to stock and back. Be sure to test the problem apps before restoring data to see if the data restore is causing the FCs (I've had that problem on and off with TiBu on ICS for a while now). If THAT doesn't help, idk wtf to do.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
PizzOwn3d....I really appreciate your help.

At this point, I"m thinking a complete zap, format, reload, etc. Maybe the SD card is getting wonky and needs that.

It does seem to me that maybe Captivate may be a bit under spec for ICS...if you are going to load a lot of programs. I found several threads about the issue of the Running out of Memory errors.

That thread I linked earlier was for fixing it on Team Hacksung's CM9 Alpha Rom. I suspect the same would apply on this ROM, but don't know.

I suspect that there is not anything known from the developer for this ROM on this, because this is the thread for that, and he has not spoken up.

At this point, I am surviving with less frustration than when I started. Not FCing as much, but since my last post, it has 2-3 times.

I have a SGS III coming hopefully this week. When I get it up and going, I may try the hack mentioned in the link above, and post results here as FYI. If it doesn't work, I'll go back to stock on it and see how it goes.

Thanks again.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
No problem :)

You can click my thanks button if ya like ;P

And no way is the Captivate under specced for ICS lol. Mine is running a lot smoother since I went to stock gb and back the other day. Look into devil kernel & swap. It's a game changer.

I just did a searh of XDA for SWAP in titles, and only found 22 threads. What I read, none thought SWAP was a good idea.

Having been riding out a dying rom that was abandoned, I decided to try out this one after researching all the available ICS roms. Glad I did as it's nice, stable and fast, good work dev!

I downloaded V6 Final and It installed no issues and after a short setup it's running awesome. A couple questions though;

Can someone explain the Theme Chooser? I go into System Settings/Themes and select Theme Chooser; The default theme is displayed but nowhere do I see how to download more as I've heard others discuss or mention?

Bootanimations; I downloaded the Blue BootAni listed earlier in the thread (as i'm not a pink unicorn fan ;/) but it errs out with "install aborted", any clues?

btw, anyone else think the Devil CWM is a tad bit strange as compared to a "traditional" CWM interface? Thanks

EDIT: Figured out the theme chooser, still stumped on the bootani however

I just installed the Devil Kernel Config app. I am having the message in my pulldown "Low on Space". I was having FCs on most apps, but I moved many apps to SD, and that stopped, but the Low on Space message did not go away.

I am with the understanding that I should apply th Datafix, but my searches are providing me with info that there are old ones out there etc. Haven't come up with something I"m comfortable with.

I presume I can apply the Datafix via the Devli Kernel Config app, and I should be good to go.

Any thoughts before I do that?
