[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosurlife:
Hi guys, I have done research on this but seem to get very different responses, I wanted to flash my cappy to Cyanogenmon 10.1 nightly (jellybean 4.2.2) but now I'm not sure, I've flashed it for testing for an hour before going back to stock, the problems I had is that boot times seemed to be a LOT longer and after I restored my messages with Titanium Backup the messaging app force closed as soon as I open a conversation. I also met a guy when buying resistors (to make a jig lol) and he said that when he had cyanogenmod his battery went down twice as fast and his apps started force closing (but I don't know when that was and if the mod is more stable now).

So, I really need some advise and want to know the pros and cons of the mod, also would be nice to know how I can backup and restore my messages without FC's, also how can I get the samsung apps that came with the phone to cyanogen mod (and would restoring data from a nandroid backup restore all my apps?).

Thanks in advance,

Nik
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
You have many more options, not only CM10.1 (still in experimental stage) and stock. What firmware you'll chose is your personal preference. Take a look at Captivate Android Development section. Notice how many downloads most popular ROMs have. Do you think those thousands of people fight every day with stability issues and FC? Me personally, I'll never go back to stock. After trying many different ROMs I found what I'm looking for and my phone is now faster (including boot time), stable (I don't remember last FC) and can do way more compared to stock. My battery life with JB is actually better than stock GB. And yes, you can have Samsung apps. For me this bloatware was one of the first things to remove after rooting stock GB. My very first ROM to flash was CM10 stable. Never had any issues with it. Most of the problems are user created (corrupted flash files, incorrect flash sequence, missed reset/format steps, incorrect system data restore from previous Android versions, etc). And you don't need a jig to enter download mode. I never had one, had my phone soft bricked twice, flashed it countless times with Odin and through CWM... and it's still alive. Read carefully all the tutorials and troubleshooting guides.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosurlife:
WOW Thanks for such a detailed reply, the reason I needed a jig is that odin froze during flashing and I got bricked (the brick screen didn't work as download mode in this case). I'll have a look at other ROMs, may I ask what ROM you went with at the end?

Thanks,

Nik
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
10.1 is fine and stable. messaging is a system app, so don't try to restore it, but restoring only the data should work.

after flashing, you can expect the rom to have a long boot the first time, and to be pretty laggy for as long as 10 minutes. later boots will be quicker. I also use an app, system tuner, to prevent a number of apps from loading at startup.

I stayed with cm10.1, after trying a few other roms. for me cm10.1 is fav.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
Yes, but it's gonna cost you $10 per every flash/testing I did for you. And the total is a lot of money... :laugh:

Read your PM -> Info what I use + links where to find it on XDA. But again, first read carefully all tutorials and flash instructions.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosurlife:
Thanks, I'll look into it.

I wish I could spam the thanks button multiple times haha, I'll go check out the ROMs, so there's no way to keep my txts?

And is there any difference in RAM usage between stock and other ROMs?

Thanks,

Nik
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
You can backup your texts with a app like Titanium Backup.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosurlife:
I did that but now the messaging app has the conversations when I open it but when I try to open a conversation it FCs,

What can I do now?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosurlife:
Ok fixed it, did a reset and restored with SMS Backup & Restore now no FCs.

CyanogenMod 10.1 taking more RAM

Hi,

I have flashed my cappy with CM 10.1 Nightly(JB 4.2.2), but now it seems this is using more RAM. already in captivate we have only 512 MB RAM and it uses about 322 MB of it. Is there any solution for this ?? or will flashing some other rom will help ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
That's normal.

As long as your phone runs fast and smooth, don't worry about your RAM. Also, if you have bunch of apps running in the background, stopping them will lower your RAM consumption.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosurlife:
Aww I was going to say that haha, the main thing to watch is CPU as RAM is managed differently on android from a PC.

Another thing I noticed is that having a lot of widgets can cause a bit of lag too.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] They Drew First Blood:
RE: RAM usage

As laughingT suggested, try an app like System Tuner to try to get startup apps under control. Greenify is another app to try before jumping ROMs. You can also go into Settings->Apps and Disable apps you do not use (personally I disable Gmail among others, seems to help battery life too). Additionally, alternate kernels may give you more usable RAM.

Edit: oops, missed the second page of posts... great responses to this question already
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
Just to confirm - uninstall/freeze apps you don't use (careful with system apps, some are required for the OS to run properly) but don't install any memory managers or task killers, especially auto task killers. They will only make things worse (slow). Android with full memory runs faster and smoother. Also, don't clear app cache for no reason.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dozyaustin:
After I bought the phone in 2010, it took me 6 months to build up the nerve to root. Then 2 weeks after that to start flashing.

I went back to stock GB rom at one point and gave up - from my experience,GB is the least stable of the Android versions, bloats the easiest and is overall a lousy system. It;s the armpit of Android, really.

At one point last summer I gave up on Captivate and started using an old iPhone gifted from a friend. At that point the Cappy has 3 hour batter life, nothing worked, and absolutely nothing worked stably - I thought Android was done for, but I was wrong. After about 3 months with the iPhone, I woke up the Cappy, took her back to stock (and I am talking Eclair here) and then forward to CM10. I never looked back. I am currently on yesterday's nightly CM10.1. CM10 Stable was buttery smooth and with no problems at all, but now I am hungry for the new features, so I update the CM10.1 builds about once a week.

This is not to say other builds are not as good. CM is the ROM that revived my Cappy. I am happy with it, it works and is consistently developed with high quality control. I have no reason to switch. But there are many other fantastic-looking roms out there. The Experia roms, the PAC man roms .. they seem to have unique feature sets and stable code.

What I am saying, is that DO NOT stick to stock. And although CM is a great choice, there are many, many options out there .

PS: I have soft-bricked my phone a lot of times. After the first couple times, you will a) learn the value of backing up your data before doing anything, and b) you will have all the files/programs on your computer to revive your phone with a few well-rehearsed steps. (having a backup phone also does not hurt - for a long time I carried the iPhone with me - worried the cappy would crap out on me. I finally stopped worrying)

Best of luck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosurlife:
Yep, I'm never going back to stock I'm running slim bean (based on CM) android 4.2.2 and really enjoying all the features, the phone is so much smoother and looks much more professional then GB (no offense google lol).

Hi, this is long winded so here goes.

I came from GB where I used an app successfully, now I'm using JB (via wanamlite rom) the app doesn't work, even though the developer for the app has upgraded the app to work with JB.

I backed up the GB app and data using titanium, though when I try to restore the app & data I get fc.

I understand the directories for GB and JB are different (as before my ext-sd was within sd, now I have two separate directories, one called 'extsdcard' and the other 'sdcard0'), so associated named links to these directories I had to change, though is there a way around it; that I can use my data from the GB app via the updated app for JB? by placing the data files in certain directories (I'm unsure which directories, as I'm not familiar with the differences on architecture from GB to JB).

Can anyone advise accordingly, it would appreciated.

Hi all,

I recently installed wicked v9.1 rom on my T-mobile Galaxy S3. Prior to that I was running Wicked v8 and everything was fine. I have a 64gb Sandisk sd card and it was working fine until this flash. I put the card in my pc and all my files are still on there and accessible so I backed them up on my PC. Then I formatted my sd card to exfat and tried mounting in the phone again, it gives me the same problem: It says preparing sd card/checking for errors, then it just says sd card is safe to remove. I tried going into settings to mount it but it does the same thing and doesn't offer a format option. I'm not sure what the problem is here since it works perfectly fine on my PC, I even ran a chkdsk /f on it and no errors were found. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
