After a flash over build 5 (cache + dalvik clear only) I had following issues:

> Market error, unable to download apps - solution: remove Google account, clear Market data/cache, reboot, add Google account, open Market and hit Accept

> Gmail error, FC on boot and open - solution: uninstall Gmail (converted to user app with Titanium), reboot, reinstall Gmail, open it to make sure no FC and settings are correct

> Media storage error, FC (don't remember what service) on boot - solution: clear Gallery data/cache, reboot, open Gallery to rebuild cache

This is why I always avoid dirty flashing. Sometimes fighting issues takes much longer than setting a clean flashed ROM. Most custom ROMs have been extensively tested before uploading and most reported ROM issues on XDA are result from dirty flashing or skipped installation steps.
[Captivate Android Development] AmericanJoe:
I have no problem with a clean install. I'll see if I can find time to do it at work today. Someone keep my boss busy! ;) Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] yaibakt:
My wife's cappy works great with a dirty flash from 5 to 6. No issue until now.

Good work. Great rom for captivate i897.
[Captivate Android Development] AmericanJoe:
A factory reset got me where I need to be. I'm back online and running with build 6. Boo Yah!
[Captivate Android Development] Bane99:
Nothing major so far. Nice speedy build.

Just had an issue dropping icons into folders on nova launcher. Causes it to force close once in awhile, but most likely not an issue with the ROM I hope.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Probably just the launcher hickuping. I've had it freak out when editing widgets at times.

Hi there, I just got my Cappy back to life after its screen was smashed a year ago. It was on SlimICS back then and I loved it. Now I want to upgrade to SlimBean, so all I need to do is just wipe everything and flash, right? Do I still need to flash the datadata fix afterward?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Partitions are different. You might need to flash the rom twice.

[Captivate Android Development] aluvn:
Does it mean the low storage issue is completely gone after flashing SlimBean? Even if I flash other ROMs in the future?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
No. Low storage space won't ever really go away. Its harder to get it. Afaik all cappy aosp roms run this partition.

[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
Two questions now, i just uninstalled Gmail and YouTube because it wouldn't let me update them from the play store. So i just installed the Play store versions and converted them into system apps just in case. Will i get any kind of issues or FC? (i don't use themes nor Real Dark Slim)

Also i did something similar with the calendar but as there was another app called Calendar storage i didn't want to uninstall it so i just froze the system app Calendar and installed the Play store version Google Calendar. Can i just uninstall it or just leave it like that frozen in time?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Can't speak for calendar but youtube and gmail you should be fine.
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
Well i'll report back in a week or so, thanks for the fast response!

great job devs :D
[Captivate Android Development] Calebz:
Got slimbean loaded up on a retired captivate. Makes the phone useful again.

However, have had one problem. The phone won't connect to any mobile networks, nor does it ask for the unlock code if a non att sim is inserted. Did I miss something?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Baseband, imei and APN correct?
[Captivate Android Development] Calebz:
Hmmm...

Baseband version: Unknown

IMEI: Unknown

That's probably the problem..lol

How do I fix that?

Thanks for your help.
[Captivate Android Development] m1batt1:
There's a lot of possible issues for that. However the fastest potential answer is to flash a modem as slim doesn't come with one. If you look in the dev section there's a sticky that gets you all your modems for the Cappy.
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
Any way of getting this on future builds?

It could be integrated with SlimPIE maybe?
[Captivate Android Development] Tsaukpaetra:
Hmm, seems possible, but running more concurrently active apps would stretch the OS even more, it might not behave very well, especially in OOM situations that would probably crop up.
[Captivate Android Development] bluecopper:
Hey am running official build 6. For the most part the phone runs fine. Not sure if anyone else experiences extreme lag when battery level goes below 20% especially with the keyboard. I'll be using some apps and the keyboard just acts weird. I'd set the cursor to bring up the keyboard and it pops up and goes back down or i'd be typing fast and the keyboard just goes away. Using Swiftkeys.
[Captivate Android Development] pre4speed:
I believe that's a keyboard issue not the rom. Only reason I say that is because I'm using swiftkeys on a cm7 variant on my moto atrix and same thing happens occasionally.
[Captivate Android Development] bluecopper:
oh i see... thanx for that
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I had to switch back to the ASOP Keyboard because of this issue with Swiftkeys. A shame really because I really like Swiftkeys...
[Captivate Android Development] bluecopper:
:( sigh... i really love swiftkeys. i feel so noob with other keyboards. i'll run a test just to confirm that its a swiftkey problem to and let u guys know
[Captivate Android Development] wilnze:
ad-hoc

my captivate now connects to ad-hoc wireless connection.

[Captivate Android Development] bluecopper:
I have noticed another issue since using this version of the ROM. I have an ikross Bluetooth headset and it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting while in use. Any ideas why?

In typing this post swift key was acting up again so had to switch to default keyboard
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
Just wanted to pop in and say I haven't been having an trouble with SwiftKey recently.

No lag or anything, especially with the last update it had.

[Captivate Android Development] 4x4fiend:
Is it possible to go from 4.2.2 build 6 down to build 4 with a dirty flash? I've had bad lag on 5/6 even with full wipes, it's too bad cause I love a lot of the features implemented since build 4.

Most noticeable lag is in messaging of all things, and bike race :) lol

Thanks!

How do I make Deep Idle to work? I downloaded Semaphore Manager on Play Store, enabled deep idle but then the phone refused to wake up and heat up as well. I had to take out the battery. I'm using build 6.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Format system and try. If stuff don't work or fc a lot full wipe and reflash.

Didle is very device specific some can use it most will SoD.
[Captivate Android Development] eduardo_b:
Deep Idle is unreliable on many I897s, including mine, but I run Deep Sleep Battery (DS Battery) without issue. I'm using my I897 primarily for music these days (S3 replaced it), so this helps minimize battery usage without SOD issues.

I'm having an issue with the camera on this rom. It may have already been addressed, I don't know, I searched the thread and found nothing. Taking pictures with the camera works just fine, but when I switch to video Gallery force closes every time. I've tried clearing data. Possible kernel issue? This is my sons phone and I'm tired of hearing him complain about it, so help would be appreciated. Feel free to PM me.

Also, he's on build 6 official with the stock bundled kernel.

Semaphore Manager make sure big mem isn't enabled?

Running Slim 6.8 now. No issues noticed. :good:
[Captivate Android Development] bcflyfisher:
I've been on every weekly so far...but this is the best because the LCD density is maintained with a dirty flash. I still end up having to reset my Zedge ringtones and notification sounds but 60% of the time that happens every time.

Me likey the Slim...
[Captivate Android Development] shadieboy:
:D Great work devs! loving the ROM! (Y) Halo would be nice tho ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Val D.:
Yes, best feature ever! :laugh:

With previous updates I had to go through few reboots to fix screen dpi, delete Google account and add Google account in order to fix market error.
[Captivate Android Development] bcflyfisher:
I found if I flashed and then IMMEDIATELY changed dpi to 240 I had no problems. If I waited even a few minutes and there was any communication with Google servers (while still on 182dpi) the play store would go bad on me. The last time even deleting and redoing accounts didn't fix it. Clearing market data by any method didn't help me that time.

But no more!
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
No clue man neither of my devices have the problem on stock slim dpi.

Edit: Obviously I'm using our latest gapps.
[Captivate Android Development] Val D.:
The Market problem used to happen when system dpi change during upgrade time. After ROM upgrade, even if you go carefully through entire dpi change procedure (to restore preferred dpi settings), an attempt to download/install apps via Market resulted in server communication error. The only cure for me was to remove and add Google account (and it worked every time). The last 6.8 update fixed the issue simply because dpi don't change after the upgrade.
[Captivate Android Development] yaibakt:
im not sure but everytime play store has error on downloading or showing installed apps, i just wipe playstore data by TiBu and then it works.
[Captivate Android Development] bcflyfisher:
I've tried all those things at various points in time and the last time I couldn't make it work. I had run on stock dpi for a week before trying to go to 240. Couldn't make play store work after changing dpi to 240 after letting the play store communicate at 182.

Always running newest gapps, of course.

Doesn't matter, no problems any more.
[Captivate Android Development] Val D.:
It doesn't work for me. Only removing Google account and adding it after restart solves the problem.
[Captivate Android Development] froman:
I just install slimbean in my captivate (it has 2.3.5), all works perfect, but has no modem and therefore I has no phone, I tried to install kk4 from CWM, but doesn't work.

You should try to flash the lastest cm10.1 first to get modem, then flash slimbean, and everything would be ok.

Also you need to use i9000 modems in a cm zip (partition is different compared to tw roms)
[Captivate Android Development] psych0phobia:
I'm getting this as well. Came from beta1, flashed beta2, gapps, GoogleNow, Extras, then latest Semaphore. It's not that wifi won't connect, it's that no data is transferred, either over wifi or 3G.

Edit: Cleared data on just about everything Google related except for Account Manager, rebooted, and it's working again. No idea on the how/why of that one....
[Captivate Android Development] Wakamatsu:
As already noted, something's up with the embedded kernel and wifi. Flashing the standalone Semaphore fixed it.

That happened to me to, it was destroying my battery. Maps didn't help either.

Also I want to report a little bug with the lock screen. The ring hangs to low and I can't see the bottom 3 apps in the ring.

I also had the WiFi issue but re-flashing the kernel again fixed it!
[Captivate Android Development] SunnyOK:
Flashed Beta 2 today. I like this ROM and new features.

I found the following problems with it:

1. Wifi does not work. After I flash the latest kernel from Semaphore, this problem is solved.

2. Home and Search buttons do not work.

3. Functions of Power Manu do not work comletely (only Power off, Reboot and Screenshot show up).

Does anybody have the same problems?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
1)known and you resolved

2)possibly wrong kernel? Did you flash SC?

3)works fine on mine

Sent from my Slim Bean Beta 2 powered Nexus 4
[Captivate Android Development] SunnyOK:
2) I flashed Semaphore_JB_2.9.0sc.zip and Semaphore_JB_2.9.0c.zip. The problem persists.

3) Reflashed, back to HB and then reflashed SB, wiped, the problem is still there.

For cross check, I have just flashed Slim-I9000-4.2.1.Beta.2-OFFICIAL.zip on my cappy. I tried Semaphore kernel, Devil kernel and CM kernel. The problems 2) and 3) are still there.
[Captivate Android Development] BxingFetus:
My WiFi issue not turning on is fixed after flashing 2.9.0sc kernel, search button doesn't work for me either, everything else seems to be great. The new aosp sliding keyboard rocks out. The only thing I was partial to in slim 3.1 was the lockscreen weather widget butty I think that's a CM thing. All in all, love it. Very fast. Haven't tested Bluetooth yet fully yet. Love the fact my Cappy is more up to date than some of the newest devices. I feel very privileged. Gonna let the rom settle in and see from there. Thank you Sir for your constant tinkering.

[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
My search button works fine. As for the Power Menu you have to set what you want to appear in the system settings granted there isn't much past Reboot, Power, and Screenshot that I personally use.

As for the Weather Widget you can download various Weather apps with widgets and put that on the Lockscreen. I myself use HD Widgets which I actually like more then the 3.X Lockscreen Weather.
[Captivate Android Development] m1batt1:
You are using the wrong ROM. That's why you are having button issues. You want the captivate ROM not the i9000.
[Captivate Android Development] SunnyOK:
I flashed I897 ROM Slim-I897-4.2.1.Beta.2-OFFICIAL.zip on my I897 phone. I got all problems I described above.

I then cross checked the problems by flasing Slim-I9000-4.2.1.Beta.2-OFFICIAL.zip with I897 kernels.

So I reported the problems with right ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Funky soft keys on i9000 roms are normal. The keylayout is different to i897 (obviously). Wifi problem is the only bug I know that's true because it's happens before. For some reason I'm not able to reproduce right now so anyone willing to test in a bit?

[Captivate Android Development] m1batt1:
If you swipe from the right side of the screen it will pull up the camera and if you swipe from the left it will pull open the box that you see the edge of and yo can choose what goes there.

I haven't found a way to disable all that yet but personally I would like to be able to and I would love to have the weather option from 4.1.2.

There's a app in the market that disables those boxes, but for the life of me I can't remember the name. As for the rest maybe in the future.

So my cappy is running SlimBean flawlessly... until today, as my camera is acting up. When I go into the camera app it said: "Gallery has stopped". I cleared data and cache of the gallery app, it didn't work. Use some other apps like Camera Zoom FX and all i got is a black viewfinder. Wipe everything and reflashing SlimBean didn't help. Any ideas? Is it a hardware problem?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Possibly if a full wipe didn't fix it. Factory reset, format system and download new zips (compare sha1) and check
[Captivate Android Development] aluvn:
I did format system and wipe everything before reflashing SlimBean... I'll give it one more try later. Can I use Odin One Click to go back to stock? Does the new partition affect the odin process somehow?

Nope shouldn't affect how ODIN as long as you has Pit and repartition.

Nova

I wonder if anyone else has had this problem. I was getting severely aggravated by the slowness of my once beloved Go Launcher, so I decided to try out Nova. Fell in love with it, so much so that I downloaded the paid version. However, I ran into a little problem. It seems that Nova just wasn't behaving itself. When I tried to create a widget, it would take me back to the home screen. So, I converted Nova to a user app with TiBu, uninstalled it, leaving the Nova Prime key on my phone, and redownloaded it from the Play Store. Nova's working perfectly now. Perhaps it was just an anomaly on my phone, but it seems that having the launcher as a system app was a problem, at least for me. I will thank the guys at Slim for introducing me to this launcher. Go was getting bad, slowing my phone down and constant FC. Plus, I was getting constant slowdowns. Since switching to Nova it's like a new phone. It may have also been that a ton of Go stuff was still showing up until I uninstalled it. Seems like Go just wanted to, well, keep going. I uninstalled it and all its widgets, and now everything is fine.
[Captivate Android Development] Val D.:
Check for some interactions with other running services. I'm using Nova Prime with Slim long before it became default launcher and I never had any issues with it.
