[Captivate Android Development] :
Sounds like a fluke. When did you flash? Could be download. Might need reflash.

[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
I just flashed this on my daughters captivate. Is there a way to get bigmem on the included kernel?

Thanks for continuing to support an old device.
[Captivate Android Development] blively2:
Does Fauxsound work with this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
Hey [MENTION=3465828]RichMD[/MENTION] sorry for the late response, prolly not gonna see a bigmem mod to the kernel. Crt60 has been working his backside off trying to bring us some 4.3 goodness.

All I can say is do a backup in recovery, try it and let us know.
[Captivate Android Development] Major-Hardon:
so i updated to 5.9.5 and for some reason when i have the long-press back button no longer works like it did on 5.7, i have it enabled but it does nothing.
[Captivate Android Development] blively2:
Nah, no thanks. :D
[Captivate Android Development] :
Did you goto settings/about phone and tap 5 times on build number/ that activates Developer options in bottom settings menu... Then can set kill all button and also power menu

From One Of My Many Collective Devices.
[Captivate Android Development] Major-Hardon:
how do you think i enabled it?
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
DOH!!!!!

anywho there is another way to turn it on, in settings, personalize, hardware keys, there is an option to remap the button.
[Captivate Android Development] Major-Hardon:
That actually worked going to hardware keys and changing it to kill an app.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Yes.. You are a Major Hardon! :D

Sorry didn't see the "I enabled" part...lol

[Captivate Android Development] aliver.dun:
thanks for that,it base on cm10.2 or aosp?what is the kernel...
[Captivate Android Development] dparrothead1:
Very, very nice. Boots up fine. I used BaNks 4.3 Core gapps and had to install SuperSU in order to gain root, even though apps and adb was checked in developers option.

GPS locks on very quickly and have good data signal. I don't use Bluetooth so I can't address that. Everything seems to work. Restored user apps using TiBu without problems.

Believe this first 4.3 build is easily a daily driver. :thumbup:

One other thing....Aocp wallpaper seems to be missing.
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
Based on cm10.2 and kernel that was built along in source cm kernel, we wanted to do aosp, would love to be put in the original development category but we don't have the developer power to do it, we got 3 people working on the project, but that still won't stop us from trying to bring you guys a great product.
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
It still being worked on of course, strange about root, I got it on first boot. Wonder if gapps had something to do with it. Will add AoCP wallpapers back until our ota is up and running.
[Captivate Android Development] Clark Joseph Kent:
Nice, I need to take my Cappy out again....Thanks ;)
[Captivate Android Development] dparrothead1:
It's probably the gapps I am using. It's a very basic package, but then I can add what I want. No biggie because the SuperSU took care of it right away.

One other thing I notice, there is a CM Updater in the "about phone" but it f/c's settings. Didn't know why that option would be there, so of course I had to click on it!!!!:D:rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] dave71670:
Booted and running well. No root issues for me. Thanks for the update. Will post if any bugs arise.
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
Yeah, that somehow got back in, it should have been removed, since we will be using the collective ota for updates.

I've been having signal issues for a long time now

I have been running this ROM since 5.0 and now on 5.8 and for the longest time (8 months or so) I have had problems keeping a signal. I think its time to flash a different modem /radio. I'm tired of the signal only working for a few minutes at a time or not at all. It just stops working and all my settings are the way they should be. So the last thing is, I need to know which one and where to download it. Can anyone help?
[Captivate Android Development] elbonnor:
Which one would depend on your location. Have you checked the stickied threads in Captivate Android Development?
[Captivate Android Development] kaiserXDA:
I've checked the stickies and couldn't find the answer. I'm located in Los Angeles. Not somewhere near L.A. but, in L.A.. Westside, Beverly Hills

[Captivate Android Development] kaiserXDA:
Thanks . Great link to a modem page . My issue now is which one am I suppose to use. Everything I've read and been told says location determines which modem to use. That list is extensive but doesn't give any info as to which one to use and definitely doesn't give any reference as to which one per location.

Sorry for being such a noob about this.
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
Unfortunately its gonna be a trial and error process. you'll need to use the cm7/ICS modems listed on the web site. Best suggestion I can give is start at the bottom of the list (it looks like those are the most current according to the modem version number) and try it for a couple days, if it doesn't work you can always flash another. Keep an eye on your signal strength in common places you go, along with data speeds and WiFi signal strength, and of course call quality.
[Captivate Android Development] kaiserXDA:
I understand . I'll do as you say and start with the newer ones .

Thanks for your help.
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
Hey guys, haven't touched my captivate for over a year and wanted to try your ROM. I think I have the correct boot loader (my last install is Gotham for captivate, a jb 4.0.4 rom so probably also needed that). Is there an easy way to check loader version?
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
Sup tsachi, haven't seen you around in a while. If you were on a 4.0.4 ROM your good to go. Luckily we haven't had to change boots since GB.
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
I haven't been around lately, not a lot of time to spend playing with roms. Thanks for the info, I'll load the from tonight

Edit: up and running. Hard to believe how well such an old device can work without bloat. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
Oh boy. Not a day on this and there is an update. I'm at the risk of going back to flash junky:)
[Captivate Android Development] daverup:
AoCP 6 up and running, great job guys!

I did have to repeat the install process once, first time got stuck on flashing AoCP on the reboot.

Thanks again!
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
Thats because of the new updater.sh, I should put that in the op, thanks for reminding me.

[Captivate Android Development] fuze4me:
so i'm getting my old captivate up and running for my wife on straight talk. it needed a fresh rom and i'm a collective fan so here i am. problem is i took a wrong turn and apparently wiped one too many things. i can get into recovery but can't install .zip i assume i need to odin back to stock and then install this from zip. or is there an easier way?
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
Your best bet would be to just odin back to stock, and start over, in my opinion...
[Captivate Android Development] falcon7204:
Even though AOCP 6.2 is based on CM 10.2, it is so much smoother and more stable than CM. The new animations for menus and windows are quite a nice touch ... it makes my Captivate seem almost new again. I am really enjoying this ROM.

A couple of issues (minor nits, really): When listening to radio on my TuneIn app, there are times when the station will stop streaming and I get the error message, "The station is not available." This appears to happen when the phone locks. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't.

Another nit also involves the TuneIn app. When listening to music at night, and I've set the timer to sleep after 45 minutes and I've enabled night mode on the clock, sometimes after a few minutes AOCP will soft reboot - in other words, instead of a total hard shutdown back to the AT&T screen and the Galaxy S/CyanogenMod kernel splash, it simply kills the music and goes to the AOCP splash screen. Then I have to go in and reset everything again, but the second time it seems to work just fine. Is this an issue with the ROM or with TuneIn?

Most everything else works like a champ on this ROM. Wish you guys developed one for the HTC Vivid (my daughter's old phone), but apparently the Cappy is a lot more popular than the Vivid. Thanks for a great ROM, and you've converted me from stock CM!
[Captivate Android Development] justmart:
I have the same issue with tunein on Slimbean 4.2... I guess is a base rom issue.
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
I'm not sure what could be causing if to soft reboot, I know that some apps can be glitchy with android 4.3 until they get updated by the developer and released on Google play. The ROM and apps are getting updated all of the time so hopefully in the next release it might work better.

Its all still pretty new but I think its getting there...

The Icee2 Theme on the play store is being released later today.

There will be a limited time offer and your purchase goes directly to server cost.

We do have some themes in the play store. They aren't stock but you might find something you like. There's even a couple that will change the lock screen "phoenix".

Just search for AoCP themes.

Also fezy102 threw out a theme that's in beta right now. Even though its still in beta its very thorough and looks bad azz.

There are 4 different lockscreen choices in the ROM...you can always change to another type if the "bird" bothers you...it's actually a " Phoenix" which is a signature of AoCP ...just sayin...

Really nice especially the original colours.

I cannot save screenshots as it says storage may be in use.

In the quick setting panel clicking the owner icon doesn't do nothing.

I may have unwittingly take a virus but before restore to factory setting I have continuously "System UI has stopped".

Thanks again, you let me think Captivate is a new model!
[Captivate Android Development] BTRL30NTM:
Sorry for spamming the thread but this ROM is stupidly stable :D haven't had one, not one issue and battery life is just great and sooooo smoooooth. Thanks collective for keeping the cappy alive and stable lol:beer:
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
Update to the latest version, AoCP 6.3, it won't save screenshots because it doesn't create the folders needed to save them, it seems to be fixed in the latest version. The owner icon in quicksettings doesn't seem to work unless you have gapps installed.
[Captivate Android Development] justmart:
Can I flash 6.4 on top of 6.3 without wiping data?
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
A clean flash is always recommended.

i just had to comment on how great this rom is. It's what i chose to put on my mom's captivate (which use to be mine long time ago) and it's running amazingly well. Can't believe this device still runs great from 2.1 eclair to 4.3. I'm also happy to see how far the collective team has come. :good:
[Captivate Android Development] mattsternc:
Thanks for this!

I just had this ROM loaded on my phone when I sent it in for IMEI repair and it's like a brand new phone now! :good: Great work on this guys! If I didn't already have an S3 that's running quite well now, this would surely be my daily driver.

Thanks again for the efforts to keep this little phone chugging along!!

Thanks you guys for the work. The rom has been great.

The only issue I'm having is the low ram. Are other users be able to have apps running in background like viber, facebook, whatsapp without slowering the cappy since those apps just keep restarting due to low memory(ram)?

Maybe one of the Collective team members will post a comment soon about this.

GAPPS link?

I am about to install this on my daughter's captivate. I tried downloading GAPPs for 4.4.2 via the OP link and searched the thread for another link but they both fail. I tried the link from the CM 11 thread which brought me to the CM GAPPs packages (which I assume is fine and what was intended by the OP link). However, I see there are the two versions for dalvik (Dec 08 2013) or ART (Nov 19 2013). Which RT is recommended for this ROM? I tried the later one but it only appears to be available if you have a torrent client (which is not installed). Is it really necessary now? Also, the ART version is available via a standard web download but is an earlier version. I haven't used a Captivate in a long time so I am not "up to speed" on what is recommended, etc.

My daughter just wants to use it for games, interent, WIFI (no data plan), etc. She won't even be using it as a phone. I would prefer to use whatever will be stable without a lot of tweaking since I don't have the time to learn all the nuances of all the android devices in my house (growing daily)...

Any suggestions would be appreciated and last but not least - THANKs for continuing development on what is now an "old" phone... :D

Edit: I tried multiple times and for a while and it kept failing. I posted this comment and tried the link and of course it worked.... Never mind (except the Thanks of course).

S3 running AoCP 7.xx
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
What am I doing wrong?

OK, here is my saga trying to install this. I never used to have problems flashing ROMs...

1) I started with the Captivating 4.2.2 RC2 build

2) I kept trying to install this ROM (verified MD5, etc.) but it failed on the install script. I then tried CM11 and that also failed. I tried semaphore kernel 3.0 to get a newer CWM. Still no luck until I copied the files I was using from the external card to the internal SD.

3) I still couldn't flash this ROM but then I could update the kernel/CWM. This ROM would still fail to install. I am doing full wipes all the time.

4) I then tried CM 10.2 and that did install.

5) Without booting CM 10.2, I just did a reboot to recovery and wiped everything again and finally could successfully install this ROM;

6) Without booting the ROM, I rebooted to recovery and wiped everything (system, cache, dalvik, factory reset) and installed it again successfully.

7) I then immediately flashed the gapps 11/19/2013 per the OP.

8) I then tried reboot system and it would reboot and drop back to recovery with no errors.

9) After a few attempts I then installed CM 11 and let it completely boot up. I didn't bother with gapps. I skipped everything and got to a homescreen. WIFI and internet did work.

10) I then rebooted to recovery and installed this ROM again, rebooted to recovery and installed it again and installed the gapps again.

11) Same result. If I reboot system, it reboots and stops at recovery... :confused:

I will install CM 11 again for now...
[Captivate Android Development] idexample:
Recovery reboot.

Same problems 4me but on a Vibrant until I flashed with Odin PC pit, PDA, phone and CSC of an old tested Lidroid 2.3.7 that usually with any Galaxy variant let me start again with no problem, but this time I have a box keyboard and confirm password screen, tried my usual codes failing and reading "If you enter a wrong password again you may lose the entire contents of your internal SD card".

Never setup passwords for my phones, even for the sim card.

Samsung helpline told me that a service centre may repair it flashing it. Can I do it myself?

To avoid similar problem in the future, what I can do? Simply setup a password on my own?

Coming back to i897 I find the AOCP 6.4 very good, and as T-Mobile UK has 4g, I read on the status bar shortly 4g, does it means you have founded the way to expand and activate also hidden frequencies?

Thank you.

For the choice between Art and Dalvik, in the Europe GT i9000 forum people suggested that Art is intended to improve responsiveness but need more ram and sometimes reboot, so is not yet recommended.
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
Since I could not yet get this ROM flashed I setup CM 11 for now. Is using zram suggested for the Captivate due to limited memory? Also, the charging/data port does not work at all so regular ODIN is not an option. I've never used mobile ODIN before. I haven't looked to see if it is an option for the Captivate but I am a bit hesitant to do anything that might result in a "soft" brick because the data port is broken so it would effectively be a "hard" brick.

If there is any suggestion to flashing this ROM from CM 11 then I will give it a try. I expect this ROM is more "tweaked out" for the Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] idexample:
You may try as I did before for the Euro GT i9000 flashing different kernel compatible with cm11 that you have now.
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
i can give that a try. However, did you have the same result where it appears to flash successfully but only boots to recovery? I would expect that if I flashed it once, then whatever kernel is included would at least get flashed and then if I flash it again, I would think it should work the same as it has for others.

Currently, the kernel is 3.01~ and the build date is 1/1/2014. The recovery version is 6.0.4.6 which I believe is the newest available. I tried looking briefly for a TWRP version. I have forgotten if TWRP is ever used for the Captivate.

Edit: I just did a nandroid and will test this Neat kernel with TWRP built in from 12/17 - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48568117&postcount=33

Edit 2: Sorry for a bit off topic but the modem hasn't been updated in a long time. It is still the JL2 modem that I used way back. I don't "think" there has been any significant improvements recently (dev stopped) and I know it is heavily location dependent but the only question is if running KitKat would make using a different modem possibly work better - or totally unrelated???
[Captivate Android Development] idexample:
For TWRP Mackay develops all the time and there may be cappy variant, unfortunately I reboot in recovery but lost the patient to try forward, but I suppose 3 time is sufficient.

I tried before mobile Odin breaking all devices tested, really unlucky!

It takes hours also.

For modems there is a dedicated thread here I never read.

If you fail don't be afraid to replace yourself the USB port with a bit of documentation.
