If you say as 'fresh flash': wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash ROM Build 4.2, gapps 4.2, GNow 4.2, boot, I did some times....

For now I won't test that setting, I'll continue without it and test to restore everything and USE it finally.......

+ Any of you know why, on spanish version of Google now, voice functions to call someone doesn't work?.
[Captivate Android Development] Bane99:
My apologies I did see that you said you did a fresh flash and got the bug.

Have you tried flashing back to stock GB --> CM10.1 --> Slimbean? Sometimes that will clear out random problems that aren't resolved by normal means.

Some people like to go back to Eclair.... I can't seem to get the odin one click JF6 to work anymore on my phone lol. I use the One Click to KK4 + Corn Kernel and it seems to work fine.
[Captivate Android Development] Gatech:
Haha nooo!. For now I wish it will work fine without that setting... as worked before...

There should be a 'debug' of booting screen, with SDK....
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Maybe it's a bug with Spanish Language and that setting? I have the setting set to always show and it works fine on my end... We are talking about showing the Battery % on Lock Screen right?
[Captivate Android Development] Gatech:
Yes may be. That setting shows % and if its charging or discharging.

Restored everything, working as a charm, LiveOC 105.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
I just noticed where you are from. Do you use your phone in spanish? o_O Damn language glitches....
[Captivate Android Development] Gatech:
Yep, Spanish (USA).
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
*sigh* I'll add to bug list and look at the xmls....
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
Oh almost forgot, when I had that little bout with my APNs getting deleted I forgot to say that the APN edit menu still says Choose Lock Screen at the top. (or whatever it was that wasn't what it was supposed to say, I'll grab a screenshot if you don't remember it lol)

Two problems

I'm having two problems on 4.2 that I didn't have on straight build 4. Maybe these are just config issues somehow, but I feel like I've done all the steps as before.

1) Apps can't see my location. When I go into Maps and hit the little crosshair icon that normally zooms to your location, it says "Please enable Google apps location access". But when I go into System Settings->Location Access, "Access to my location" is on. My GPS doesn't really work so I tend to leave it off, but it has always been that way, and the wifi/mobile location is turned on. I see other symptoms of this problem-- on the lock screen, I don't see the weather, just a message that "your location could not be determined". Also, the MLB "atbat" app won't play audio or video, and although it doesn't say so, most of these errors with it are usually because it can't determine location to enforce their blackout rules.

2) The LCD density is set to 160-- I went through all the steps in the settings, clearing stuff, re-accepting Market, etc. It works for the launcher, but no other apps recognize it. They all still have big ugly fat buttons and such even though the launcher itself looks right. Some example apps which are showing this problem are WeatherBug and RealCalc. Both of these worked on previous builds.

I did do a full wipe/reflash, and it didn't help. Anybody else seen any of these, or am I just being dense here?

Thanks...

---------- Post added at 10:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 PM ----------

Sigh, no sooner do I post than I fixed one of the problems myself. I cleared data for maps and launched it again, and it prompted me to enable location access, and apparently there's a separate setting for that for Google's own apps as opposed to others. When I granted it there, maps started to work, and so did the MLB app (even though it's not in any way shape or form a Google app itself). The lockscreen widget has not yet, but it may just need a moment.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Lol I was going to say wipe but if it fixed it. As for DPI anything under 182 will cause graphical glitches on hdpi devices.
[Captivate Android Development] ulbonado:
Yeah ok, 182 works much better, thanks.

I now have one other weird glitch in that when I go into the Music app, my playlists are all blank. All the stuff is there if I look under Songs, Artists, or Albums, and the playlists themselves are listed, but if I try to play one of them, they're all blank. Guess I'll dig around a little more on that, again it used to work, so there's probably some setup issue like the others.
[Captivate Android Development] ngochuy:
Mine is 230 and it works perfectly. 182 is too low to see texts and icons.
[Captivate Android Development] droiduzr2:
I came from HellyBean rom and I did full wipes including formating system and data

The stock DPI is too low. The clock at the top is way too small.

I think I found a bug.

When you try to turn on the dark feature it would turn itself back off.

I turned off profile switching and now the dark feature works.

So far the ROM is working well.

I hope the Dev will reconsider setting the DPI to something a bit more normal.

Thanks for your hard work. It is amazing that this older phone is still working just as new.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I like the 182 DPI. It's not like it's set and then you're forced to use it. If it's to low raise it. I don't really see the problem or need to change anything there.
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
I've got a little problem, for some reason I cannot convert any of the system apps to user apps no matter how I do it.

I've used an app called /system/app/ mover and a few others, and manually. It all ends out the same. The app disappearing and I have to re flash gapps to get it back. I checked my files and such and I can't find where they go. X3 Out of pure curiosity I tried a couple of different ones to the same effect.

DPS Manager, Google Music, and Talk just to name a few. I know it's risky playing around with this, but it's not like I'm trying to convert something important like Google Framework lol. I know better on that much thankfully.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
There's a reason why they are in system and not /data/apps. I wouldn't mess with it
[Captivate Android Development] m1batt1:
Why would you want to move them in the first place?
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
Honestly? No reason, aside from me not keeping thing on my phone I never use, and learning by doing, simple as that. Its hard for me to remember how to do something if I don't actually do it.

I'm just gonna disable them anyways so I figured, hey why not learn how to move apps around so if I ever need to now I know how.

And just to add I know I am risking my phone's stability to curb my curiosity. I understand that and am willing to risk it. I have no one to blame but myself if all blows up. X3

Slim File Manager Paste

This is probably a stupid question, but how do you paste copied or cut files in slim file manager. I can't see any button or any other way to paste. I must be missing something simple here, or maybe something isn't being displayed to actually paste files.

thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] Gatech:
Slim File Manager is like a toy LOL. No many functions....
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
It took me a minute to figure it out but you have to long press on the folder you want to paste into. Its the only way I could see how to do any sort of pasting.
[Captivate Android Development] tmusall:
Many thanks.

When I try to download apps from play store, it takes way too long like the wifi keeps disconnecting?

Anyone have an idea why?

I am on 4.2.2 and my modem is KG3.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Did you set wifi to save power?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
There's a fix zip on our site.
[Captivate Android Development] eNemy-:
Where is that option?

Edit: Nevemind. Flashed kernel and modem again and it all seems to be fine now.
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
OK so you guys remember awhile back how I had that weird battery issue and couldn't charge my phone? Well I finally opened my own thread over in the help section and have come to the conclusion something in Slim is probably causing my battery charging to mess up. I was successfully able to charge my battery to 100% on CM 10. The link to it is below. (The app I used turned out to be a placebo so that means the phone did it by itself. I haven't updated that part yet.)

Also before of flashed back to Slim I made sure to do a super clean install so all that crazy stuff I was messing with is gone. But anyways I got back to slim and tried to charge and I got it to level out this time. I used fast charge and it was able to keep the same level charge all night instead of draining.

Though if I use the phone while it charges it drains, just writing this my battery has gone down 8%.

And no I haven't taken the advice I got here about cleaning the charge port from the inside. I wanted to be completely sure before I made an attempt at opening the phone and I wanted to share this info with you guys before I go any farther.

Thank you guys. :3

[Q] Heavy battery drain when on charger
[Captivate Android Development] razvanadrian:
game killed

guys, i have this game i play, and every time i get out of it to write an sms or whatever, or if my phone rings while i'm playing, i have to start the game all over again, it's like it's not running in background. how can i solve this? i run the latest slim.

Thanks a lot!
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Just to be clear you did attempt to charge your phone with a clean install of Slim before restoring your backups or installing any apps right (with the exception of the gapps on the site)?
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
Yes. I just had gapps. I went back to a backup this morning and its doing the same thing. I'm tempted to go and flash some other ROMs and see what happens. I just hate to because Slim rocks.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Seems to me like it's some strange hardware issue that Slimbean (for whatever reason) aggrivates more so than other ROMs (did read the other thread and noticed it got stuck at 30% for a while on CM10 before it decided to charge to 100% for whatever reason).
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
All I did was install the placebo app then unplug the charger I was using once I plugged it back in it began to charge again.

This is what makes me wonder if its really just as simple as cleaning the charge port. This phone is really old, if the imei is anything to go off of then its reallllly old. It falls in the range of the imeis that have the SOD issue. Which from what I read was a problem just after it released. Not to mention I bought it used from eBay so goodness knows what's its been through.

Still I figures it wouldn't hurt to at least try and figure it out lol

Edit: Avatar ROM is charging it. Huh. I wonder if it has to do with being CM based?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Im 100% sure that every rom for this device has at least CM's device and hardware folder....

Edit: Also we are in no way "based" on cm. We are based on aosp. We might have some cherry picks from cm but framework was started from scratch from aosp. Ya we use hardware folders and device folders from cm buy everyone else uses the same...
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
I'm sorry, didn't mean to make a fuss. I think I'm using the wrong wording or something and I apologize. x3 I'm just trying to figure out why my favorite ROM makes me unable to charge my phone. I'll just stop bringing this up (I figured since I investigated it more you guys might know something I don't from what I found) here even though I'm almost 100% sure its something to do with Slim. I don't even think its a bug, its just something, and I just want to find out what. And the only thing I have to go on is that this didn't happen before I flashed to Build 2.5 of 4.2.2 and its only happening with Slim.
[Captivate Android Development] m1batt1:
It could be that its not something you can solve... My guess would be that the game requires quite a bit of ram to run and when something like the phone causes it to move into the background theres just not enough available ram for it to continue running. So the system does the only thing it can and closes the game.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Well I don't know I'm not at my house for the weekend. But I believe there are apps that check mA while charging. If you want to get to the grit amp meter and check charging

Edit: when you check other roms do you use semaphore kernel. You should.
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
As [MENTION=4427361]m1batt1[/MENTION] said.

I play lots of games because this phone is my daily driver and almost all the games i've played can't handle multitasking because of the RAM consumption. Keep in mind that we are running an up to date version of Android which is a fact that never seizes to amaze me, so you can't compare this to the stock experience on the Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] athdaraxen:
Yes, I've used Semaphore across all tests. I wanted to keep everything as close to Slim as possible as to not mess up the experiment, too many variables and it wouldn't be good data. Currently attempting C-ROM. On the note of mA, I made sure to monitor each time with Battery Mix and from what I can see any mA stats have stayed normal. That's the main thing I don't understand. All the conditions are normal, the temp isn't even getting hot, batteries are fresh and in good health . (Since I found out that heat can effect charging)

It all points to hardware except for the fact if I flash to something that isn't Slim, it'll charge.
[Captivate Android Development] slytidar:
No service

i have no service, cannot search for mobile networks, no sim detecting

i did restore my efs too :/
[Captivate Android Development] Tsaukpaetra:
No Sim detected? Well, that's bad, especially if you made sure to remove and add the sim card back in...

I would recommend you check that, and post back with more information if you still have issues.
[Captivate Android Development] slytidar:
it worked after i flashed another rom then slimbean

thank guys
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Glad you got it working, but chances are you didn't have a modem since SlimBean doesn't come with one and the ROM you flashed probably did.
[Captivate Android Development] mrsubway:
I'm trying to figure out if this is the new Slim or new Mixer theme. When I get a voicemail, the icon shows up. Used to be if I pulled down the status bar and clicked the X, it would clear all the notification icons except the VM. Now clicking X removes the VM icon as well. I don't like this as then I forget I have voice mails.

[Captivate Android Development] m1batt1:
Its a new feature of slim that you can clear the voicemail icon.
[Captivate Android Development] mrsubway:
I read that but can you disable it? I looked through every setting. I'm really not a fan of that feature. I'm not complaining, it's just that I'm forgetful and if I accidentally clear it my VMs pile up. :/

I installed latest build of Slim today, coming from CM. I like that DashCLock is set by default, but it appears like its maximized all the time, there is no small icons by the clock except the settings one?

[Captivate Android Development] ulbonado:
Freezing

This build is locking up on me pretty frequently. Previous builds didn't. No real pattern to what I'm doing when it happens-- it just randomly locks up and stops responding to any inputs. Only way out is to reboot. It is happening about once or twice a day. I did a full wipe/clean install to get to 4.2, so it should be a clean install. I take it from the general silence here that no one else has seen this issue?

[Captivate Android Development] bradddo:
finally dove in last night and flashed this rom. i must say it doesnt seem very 'beta'. no issues yet. Though i dont know if i like it so much or if i am just used to 4.1 . There are a couple things missing and the changes dont seem that purposeful, liked change for the sake of change. Is there a clear all for recent apps or do i still have to swipe them all inidividially? Since i didnt do a nand backup can i just dirty flash back to 3.1 for now? i think i like it a bit more.
[Captivate Android Development] RashaMatt:
So I tried this again - fresh install, BigMem, SmartAssV2+ROW, froze a few system apps (DRM, Key Chain, MusicFX, YouTube), and also installed the Seeder apk. It's working a whole lot better now, with no freezes and no lagginess after 36 hours. It got 98% deep sleep overnight (with wifi and data and sync all off).

Only bug I noticed was video recording Fc's gallery. Is that due to BigMem?

Thanks, devs and others, for the suggestions (and for the ROM) :)

---------- Post added at 09:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 AM ----------

The only things I am missing are the slide-to-adjust-brightness and 1200MHz support, since my phone doesn't like LiveOC but works fine at 1200 on Devil kernel (with LA Night). Hoping for an update to DEVIL :)
[Captivate Android Development] mrsubway:
Man I will tell you. I froze Google Talk, which I never use, and gained about 25% more battery life.

I know BigMem breaks 720p Video Recording so maybe... I know the Semaphore sc built for Slim ROMs like this one has a bit extra RAM so I don't use BigMem so I don't know for sure...

I will say with no apps frozen I pull my phone off the charger at 0600 and by ~2200 I'm down to 2%. Not much of a change in battery drainage.

Anyone Else having trouble getting WIFI working? It says turning on but it never gets there. I have downloaded twice and flash three times. Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] m1batt1:
I hadn't paid attention til I read your post but yes my WiFi wouldn't connect either. However I figured out the problem.

It seems that even though beta 2 shows to be running semaphore 2.9.0sc there's something funky with the kernel. I first noticed this after the install when my recovery reverted to an older version.

If you download the 2.9.0sc kernel zip and flash it in recovery WiFi will work again.
[Captivate Android Development] vdubguy:
Worked perfectly! Thanks

Nope, all stock, stock kernel, haven't touched clock or voltage settings.
[Captivate Android Development] Tsaukpaetra:
I chalked it up to my issue way back when, because this happens most often while browsing CSS-heavy sites, even though the behavior and "trigger" seems to be random indeed.

The issue is aggravated because I have multiple wifi access points in my home (because there is no coverage inside the house, I have a WAP in every room -.-), and moving between WAPs definitely triggers this partly (I'm thinking due to the google services having to reconnect to the push service?), and I can watch my CPU usage just explode for a few seconds at least every time my network state changes.

I've been playing with using ZRam and KSM, but so far reproducing the bug has been so difficult to reliably trigger it, it's hard to say what works and what doesn't...
[Captivate Android Development] ulbonado:
Hmm, that's interesting, I have multiple APs in my house too (only two, one at each end of the house, but it does switch between them sometimes). I'm pretty confident that the hangs have happened more often at home, but I'll have to pay attention and see if they ever happen when I'm out & about, not on wifi at all. This explanation may even fit with my only starting to see this problem recently, as I only installed the second AP a few weeks ago.
