I dont know what actually happened but since the last version I only have problems. At the first install It went fine except the Wifi-bug which was ok for me. After some time the phone rebooted to the boot logo and it didnt stopped till I pulled the battery. After this reboot the phone booted normaly but it lagged so much, it was nearly unuseble, then I flashed it as good as I can (Cyanonagonmod->Wipe everything->Format system ->...) It was nearly the same, sometimes it ran very well and lagfree but after turning on wifi it sometimes rebooted and then it lagged very much (even if I use Mobile data) till I rebooted again. With the new version which I also flashed very clean, I can reboot as often as I want, It doesnt run lagfree. :(

I hope you can help me, I'd really like to have the real speed of X3. :( :crying:
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
BTW have you guys been getting the update notification in goo? I know it's working with the S2 version.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

Seem strange. U can look couple pages back and try the old method that I used. Wipe 3 time-cache-dalvik cache- flash the Rom 3 time just in case.. Hopefully it work for you cause it always work for me
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Try this:

Full wipe

format system

advanced>clear semaphore settings

Flash X3 - don't reboot yet

Flash this Kernel

Boot and test
[Captivate Android Development] era246:
I think I flashed the ROM 1000 times now and everytime with other methods even with this. I will do now what sephhi recommends me, maybe it solves the problem. :) Othervise I will tell you guys. :)
[Captivate Android Development] nsyik:
It's not only era246 get this problem. In fact im still having this problem too since the 10.1. But i tried to flash a few times using the methods above and it worked fine. But with X2 and X3, i flash with all the methods and tried all the kernels. Sometimes it work well on the first boot but after i reboot, it started to lag so much to a point it's hard to open any apps. Wifi problem still exists as it will reboot when i connect to wifi. "haven tried the devil kernel, will report back after i tried it."

AW: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

After flashing devil kernel everything us fast and stable aaand I didnt have the WIFI-Bug, thanks sephhi for helping me. But I guess there is an issue between semaphore and your Rom, would be happy if it would work with it :)
[Captivate Android Development] rmntruexjr:
I flashed X3 on my 2nd cappy (media device) to test it out. I was on X1 with devil. I formatted everything except sd and wiped everything just to be sure. Flashed X3 and since I was on devil kernel, I rebooted to recovery (semaphores recovery) and flashed X3 again then rebooted.

No issues setting up accounts and such on wifi. Then I restored user apps and rebooted. So far it's looking good. Power amp plays fine and sounds incredible. Tv portal/direct tv apps work great. Still setting up everything, but so far I'm not seeing much in the way of lag....It is a little slow loading icons in amazon app store, but not enough to be a deal breaker for me.

I did just get a chance to play a little temple run 2, and it was real smooth. Seemed like the touches were right there, no delay. It's amazing how much better I am at that game when the runner turns right when I tap, not a half a second later:rolleyes:.....

To be honest, after really working with X1 and getting settings ironed out, I really like it and I haven't flashed anything else on my main phone.:good: It's a more balanced rom for me and I like the extra options. It's been running flawless for days without a reboot and I use it often.

I think I'll stick with X3 and any newer versions geared toward gaming on my media device just because I do more multitasking on my main cappy.

Thanks again Sephhi!!..... I'm one of those guys that always tries to get the most out of everything, especially electronics, and people like you and the other devs here have been making it even more fun:good: It's like when I discovered RockBox firmware for my old sansa fuze mp3 player. It took something near the end of it's life and made it almost new again:D
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

Omg I had a sansa player too! The 250 or something like that. I found rockbox and it changed the user experience so much it was unbelievable. I even made my own skin for it. Thanks for reminding me of those days, good times.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

Well thank you over and over and over. I can honestly say my Captivate has never run so amazing or smoothly. This Rom has done amazing for us. I just only wish The super high oc was possible past gingerbread, but our 1.32 with 20% live oc is sorta equivalent to gb 1.5 with 25% live oc. You have brought our Cappies back to life. With style and humor -:)
[Captivate Android Development] eNemy-:
Flashed x3 an hour ago I got 2 reboots while I was removing some apps with TiBu other than that so far so smooth.

Thanks for your hard work sepphi.

Just a quick question what governor and scheduler settings you guys recommend for long battery life?
[Captivate Android Development] ramani:
flashed X3 and everything is ok as it should be ,

by the way, the volume button screen wake up is not to be found,is it ?any way to enable it.

thank u for all ur efforts sepphi,

regards.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
X3 is from the latest cm source. I couldn't wait for hellybean update. Those without working power buttons can use this app
[Captivate Android Development] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
Thanks for this rom, I really like xperia apps

And your rom is best rom which suits all my needs

But there is a small problem I need multitasking more than performance

I use uc browser mini and uc browser full at the same time (to fulfill my different objectives) but due to your performance setting I can't

So if you can tell me what you have changed besides lmk settings please tell me so I can mod this rom according to my needs

THANKS
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
I also have been looking to upgrade my daughter's M1 build but am not sure which version would be best. She uses it to listen to music, texting, browsing the web, instagram, etc but isn't interested in gaming. I'm wondering what newer build would be best for that general usage.

Edit: Also, I have seen multiple posts in the Note2 and SIII forums about lists of apps/services that can be frozen or removed to free up memory and increase battery life. Does anyone have a good list for that on 4.2.2 for the Cappy?

Neither of my kids use bluetooth, GPS, and I am sure many others. Is there a list of "recommended" and "optional" packages to freeze or delete?
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Or I can mod it for you and post a flashable zip:silly:
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
That sounds great! Then we can have the most up to date CM and optmization for general usage :)

I can't get my g/f's phone to connect to wifi in the last 2 builds. I can get my old cappy to connect. Might have to go back to the 1 before if I can't figure it out.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

Can u make a seperate version of the ROM using hellybean as a base, its been the most stable for me, just a question Thnx for the wonderful rom
[Captivate Android Development] treau:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

Sepphi, I think its time to figure out aroma installer and build a user selectable ROM. This way you don't have to favor gaming or multitasking, also offer multipal kernels, you let them pick during their install. If you inject the aroma base into the next ROM I will help as much as I can to get it working. Maybe we can get some help from some seasoned aroma devs too.
[Captivate Android Development] rmntruexjr:
This May be a little too kernel related a question or too off topic but I'm afraid I get some of the best answers right here so I'll give it a shot. lol.....

Anyway, Can anyone tell me if there is a way to make a script that when executed it would turn on the "tv out" option?

I use the tv out often on my second cappy and every time I unplug the jack the option shuts off, which is ok but when I replug the jack I have to leave the video to turn the setting on again. My goal would be to have tasker run the script after the jack is reconnected and the setting became available again. Is this even possible?...sounds good in my head :fingers-crossed:

Edit: X3 is what is currently on the device....running great by the way.....
[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
I like the idea... :)

X3 Rocks!!!

Sephhi you are smooth criminal :p

you took down almost all the issues in x3 ;)

great work!!!

[Captivate Android Development] nsyik:
Sepphi, about the lag after reboot, this issue is fixed by using devil kernel after the fresh flash. After several reboot, i can just switch back to semaphore and no issue till now :D
[Captivate Android Development] falcon7204:
For my Captivate, X3 is a no-go. Home button (capacitive buttons on the phone) does not work. Quite laggy. Back to CM 10.1 until a fix happens.

I really, REALLY like the Walkman audio player and PowerMax. There are also many other tweaks I like about Captivating. But I have to have a working home button. And the lag is unacceptable. I prefer the Semaphore kernel, but the 2.9.12sc did not seem to like my Captivate much.

I'm kind of impatient when it comes to flashing ROMs :D so I'll be content to wait until X4 or M2 or whichever stable milestone comes out. In the meantime, keep up the good work! I know I'll get one that works!
[Captivate Android Development] Yuna:
What do you mean under not working?
[Captivate Android Development] treau:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

I have flashed x3 on both our old cappies. My 2.5 year old uses them for learning games.

What I did:

Factory wipe

Cache wipe

Dalvik wipe

System format

Installed ROM 2x

And all is well. Did you dirty flash?
[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
what kind of WORK do you expect when you press the (hardware) home key? :eek: home key is working fine for me!!! it takes me to home screen where ever i go (app drawer, settings, any other app/game) i always come back to home when i press it! :victory:

about the lag... please let us know if you are talking about as what you referring "Quite Laggy and Unacceptable" to? if its the rom smoothness than its smooth as butter and if you are talking about gaming performance then please let me know the game which is lagging for you cuz i have temple run 2 and subway surfer installed and i assure you the minor glitches you get can not be referred as lagging! :angel:
[Captivate Android Development] treau:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

I think it was a bad flash/download. In my many years of flashing ROMs, I have never had that issue on a mature ROM. If the ROM was in start up phase, then it is expect to bugs like what was described.

Being inpatient performing any thing custom (electronic or not) is the wrong kind of attitude. And trying to do things half a**ed will bring bad things no matter what scenario. It has been stated throughout XDA many many times to troubleshoot before you post.
[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
+1

could be a bad flash!

p.s. do check md5 checksum before flashing any thing!

otherwise...

[Captivate Android Development] treau:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

I could be kernel related. Try installing one of the other kernels that are compatible.

If that don't fix it then flash different kernel, then do full wipe (factory/cache/dalvik/system) and flash this ROM 2 times, then reboot
[Captivate Android Development] rmntruexjr:
That's your opinion.....It's also neither one of the roms the poster was asking about:rolleyes:

After several tries i was able to get it to work, the phone would restart when after flashing at setup i tried connectin to wifi, so i did another install and this time i didnt connect to wifi and it worked fine.

I connected to wifi later on in the settings. Didnt seem to give troubles then, i guess its something in the startup that caused trouble.

Good morning, my brother let me have his old Captivate phone. He has it flashed to Fasty rom. I have no experience flashing a Captivate, only with a VM HTC one v flashed to Page+ with the X3reme Sense rom.

I'd like to use this rom and would like to ask the steps to flash to this rom coming from Fasty. I read last night till my head spun. It seems that there are different ways to flash this rom. Thanks in advance for any help.

[Captivate Android Development] droyd666:
I have never had any major problems with this rom but when I went from X1 to X3 I experienced most of the problems that people are mentioning. I checked the md5 so it looks like a good download and then I factory wiped, wiped cache, dalvik cache, system and even cleared init.d and semaphore settings. The first problem is that it says "can't establish a connection to server" when I try to log into my google account but then I simply reboot and skip that step and then I can log in later. The next problem is that the quick settings button doesn't work and finally the home and search buttons don't do anything. As far as performance, it wasn't laggy at all and everything else seemed to be working fine. Its not much of a problem since X1 was working perfectly for me so I might just wait for the next version and see how that plays out.
[Captivate Android Development] Darkangels6sic6:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

I dont know. They are both pretty sweat in different ways. Pacman being a combo is nifty. Especially having the full aokp customizing. This Rom is very well supported and tweaked and the Xperia ui is nice
[Captivate Android Development] treau:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X3]

I think settings hard key has been disabled for some time (something to do with the launcher)

About the reboots, have your tried any other kernels, modems, etc? It really sounds like a kernel issue.

Flash a different kernel, if that won't fix it then:

Flash kernel again

Do a full wipe (factory, cache, dalvik)

Format system

Clear all kernel tolls

Flash ROM 2 times

Factory reset

Clear cache and Calvin

Fix permissions

Flash ROM again

Reboot

Let load

Skip all sign in pages

Reboot phone

Now setup phone

Yup. X4 comes with devil. BTW, not a proper changelog but

X4 is

-more balanced

-more multitasking

-smoother gaming(yes it's possible)

Where is the dl link for the x4? Might as well flash to the newest rom. So are these the steps I need to use? I think fasty is ICS though.

You are coming from gingerbread so more steps are needed.

Download 1 click odin package from here: Link

Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo

WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)

Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery

Reboot into recovery and install the rom again.
