Thank You.

I have understood the problem.

It regards Aroma installer, which has values that refers to Galaxy S I9000: i will fix it next days.

For today:

- C-Rom KK 4.4.4 v7.1 - 2014.06.22

C-Rom was rebased, so a full wipe is needed.

KruciFFF sent me a fix for ArchiDroid 4.4.3 - 2014.06.19 (extract zip and swap files):

http://www.mediafire.com/download/lav310yak1a5ak7/ArchiDroid_Fix.zip

NOTE : Make sure you update to latest Recovery on ur phone by Flashing latest Kernel like Neat Kernel 1.09 or above

I uploaded also a fixed version:

ArchiDroid 4.4.3 - 2014.06.19 fixed version
[Captivate Android Development] swiftlycreepin:
I'll check it out in a few hours. Still partying and celebrating the end of high (secondary) school for me. Just had my convocation this morning.

Sent from my SGH-i896 running monfro's port of SuperNexus 1.2.5
[Captivate Android Development] swiftlycreepin:
UPDATE: ArchiDroid 06.19 rev b (the fixed version) seems to be working. Works far better than the previous one, considering the fact that I am currently posting from an install.. I'll be playing around with some of the settings later, to see what I like best. And one note, the TWRP version included doesn't seem to work. Has the binaries been switched around so that its cwm?
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
Yes...every kernel option you will choose will give you stock CM11 kernel.

You can try NeatKernel 1.09: it is faster than stock CM11 kernel and has dual recovery option: cwm and twrp.
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
Something new from KruciFFF!!
[Captivate Android Development] swiftlycreepin:
So GlassMix is a mix of a bunch of aspects from different phones and tablets?
[Captivate Android Development] KruciFFF:
Yes! Kind of, but it consists more of Samsing UI with some other additional features like BB Lockscreen etc..
[Captivate Android Development] swiftlycreepin:
Cool. I'll check it out later, once I get bored of KitKat and Archidroid

SlimKat issue

Hi Monfro- I have the same advanced settings force close issue as I did with SlimKat 5.9 weekly. No big deal. I dirty flashed the 5.10 over 5.9, though- I am going to try full wipe and reflash. Thank you sir! Love this ROM! :highfive:
[Captivate Android Development] swiftlycreepin:
What was changed with 5.10
[Captivate Android Development] ethereal_mist:
This new C-ROM is amazing, but it eats more battery on my cappy.

Using Omni ROM now.

SlimKat 4.4.4 - 6 weekly 5288 - 2014.07.01

In 2nd post uploaded a new CM11 kernel for 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 with the correct buttons layout in cwm
[Captivate Android Development] KruciFFF:
It has hell lot of features! Its quite obvious to lag your captivate if you overload your apps to that ROM!
[Captivate Android Development] ethereal_mist:
It is really fast. No lag issues at all but just the battery drains more than usual without playing around with more than just few features.

Around 50 apps installed.
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
What kernel?

CM11 or NeatKernel?

Try both to find the battery/performance ratio that suits best your needs.
[Captivate Android Development] ethereal_mist:
NeatKernel works better than CM11 kernel for me. I have been using this only on Slim, Supernexus, Omni and C-ROM. Sick fast. C-ROM turned out unbelievable. Maybe you can suggest some tweaking for a decent battery life on C-ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
Also I use NeatKernel on my Captivate: for sure it is faster than CM11 kernel.

CM11 has better battery life.

I am releasing new roms using CM11 kernel since it is more "stockish" and will work on every device without problems.
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
Seems like Semaphore kernel 3.4.3 can be flashed on some 4.4.3+4.4.4 ROMs too (not only 4.4.2), like Omni.

Since these roms use different standards for kernel, the best way is to experiment.

In post #2 there is a general kernel guide.

Dialer for the Roms

I find the new kitkat dialer little bit annoying .

I have tried apps from the market..but none is as comfortable as the old ones

Will it be possible for any one to post the old type of dialer as in the below pic.

with dialer , call log , contacts in the same window and just move through the tabs

, rather than the new one where you have to move to a new window for the call logs...

i think only the last udpate has changed the dialer , before that it was the old dialer type only.

[IMG="Old type dialer"]http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQZPYi32xyVrtCBQ3avGTSl6dI5gVvR6fLsakVCnrYNC2iqplb9[/IMG]

hopefully some one can extract the old type of dialer and post !
[Captivate Android Development] ethereal_mist:
Wow!! Amazing ROM! Really loving it.

[Captivate Android Development] guschoneweg:
I can't move apps to SD card, manually or using apps. There is no option to move, but when I use an app like app2sd or similar it says that I don't have enough storage but I do have. When I use titanium backup it says "move completed" but it is still in internal storage. Using Neat kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
Android KitKat 4.4 introduced a new type of dialer.

Android KitKat 4.4.3 introduced a newer dialer again.

I dont' think the old one will work by simply replacing the apk.

A lot of Galaxy S I9000 users complaint about new dialer, but no rom use the old dialer.

Android KitKat 4.4 introduced a new management of SD card (Google doesn't like them).

I don't know which roms implement a workaround to move apps on SD.

Yeah, its really neat. So many features to play around with and risk breaking something :p

---------- Post added at 05:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 PM ----------

4.4.3 brought the new dialer, after it was put on the n5. The android community at large seems to be having mixed feelings about it. I think 4.4.4 also changed the dialer as well, if only slightly.
[Captivate Android Development] tartutic07:
its not good ..no mixed feelings about it :P ...

like i said , its integrating more of Google now , and hence another way for google to show more advertisements now directly in to your dialer .:(

if at all possible to flash and revert back to the normal dialer , i (may be more people ) would definitely appreciate it .!
[Captivate Android Development] tartutic07:
i hve a peculiar problem ... i am not sure if others are facing it or not.

I have the latest Ldroid ROM installed . (superb ROM btw i think they have put all the features which any one could want inside this ROM)

When i am on WiFi , (its all the time when i am home) my phone is normal , gallery loads immediately , dialer and the contacts loads normally , i can swipe between the screens fast , it doesnt get stuck any where.

But when i switch off the wifi , and use , the phone becomes slow , i mean very slow , it takes 10sec ( i counted !! ) for me to go the app page from the desktop .

dialer never loads , gallery shows only blank , takes so much time to load , gets stuck , becomes totally slow and frustrated ! :(

:confused: any one having that problem ??? or just me ? i dont want to change the ROM since this has the most (if not all ) features i like in to one.:p:p

so any one ... ? ??
[Captivate Android Development] swiftlycreepin:
Seems just to be you, it wouldn't make any sense for Google to put ads in your dialer app. The requirement of gplus being installed now, is because they're trying to force people to use their trashy social network. Try reformatting your SD cards (internal and external) and see if that helps. Its helped me, and I have to do that in the next while to help the speed of reading the SD card.

If you're feeling like using the old dialer, then find a previous revision of the ROM you're using, at v4.4.2 and copy the dialer app from the ROM at /system/app/ in the zip, and copy it to /system/app/ on your device using a root browser, or adb push it.
[Captivate Android Development] tartutic07:
ads per se meaning not pop ups , like when it shows all the nearby restaurants and stuff , that is also type of advt .

any ways i shall try formatting the sd card and changing up the dialer app.

thanks !! :D:good:
[Captivate Android Development] swiftlycreepin:
If you have ads popping up on your dialer, its more or less likely you have adware or something of that nature on your cappy... Try getting something like avast mobile security and checking your phone with it :good:

[Captivate Android Development] kramttocs:
Thanks all for checking. I tried doing a full wipe and flashing again but same issue. Ended up going to C-Rom and it's working great so I'll stick with it for awhile.
[Captivate Android Development] eNemy-:
How is C-Rom in general compared to L-Droid?
[Captivate Android Development] kramttocs:
It's pretty good. Had it reboot on me twice early on but hasn't happened today at all. I went through and stripped out a lot of the system apps which helped clear up the ram some.

I feel like L-Droid was a bit snappier though but I hadn't done much setup on it since I was more concerned with getting it to save my apn :)

I really like all of the included features/tools that C-Rom has in the settings. DPI, removing system apps, etc. Just saves time having it built in. Can't comment on battery life yet.

Thanks for the quick reply.

any update for this.. was waiting for ur come back
[Captivate Android Development] dparrothead1:
I really like Spirit ROM and am using it on my Original Note and my Tab 3 8.0. But I am running in to Systemui f/c everytime I try installing Google+.

I have tried every trick I can think of......any suggestions?
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
I have seen L-Droid has been updated, but a lot of people reported that last version is slower than the old one.

Maybe i will port it tomorrow

Maybe for Captivate/Galaxy S SpiritRom + Google+ are too much...or probably there is some conflict with all the options included in Systemui in this version compiled for our hadware.

Today's menu:

EHNDROIX V 14.8.8 - 2014.08.07
[Captivate Android Development] dparrothead1:
So, you're saying you don't know? I searched the i9000 thread and no one reported this problem. I haven't incurred this problem in in other 4.4.4 ROM I tried on the Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] dparrothead1:
Just as info. If you need G+ then the Spirit port is useless. And that's a shame because it's such a good rom.
[Captivate Android Development] dparrothead1:
I've been around for a long time but have never heard of EHNDROIX ROM. It's a nice ROM. Much like Slim but with the Theme Engine.

Note: Boot takes a while, but have patience. I actually thought I was bootlooping but it finally booted up.

Edit: this ROM installs TWRP 2.7.1.0 on you phone.
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
Maybe trying CM11 4.4.3 kernel can solve the problem (attached to 2nd post) of G+ on SpiritRom.

What recovery is everyone else using? (I prefer to CWM-based). If I can't flash it then I might need an img file to dd. If so, I will need to know the mmcblk number.

Thanks in advance for the help.
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
In these devices (Aries family, aka Galaxy S variants) recovery has not its own partition and it is flashed together with kernel.

What Android version is your rom?

I suggest to flash a kernel of an upper android version, reboot recovery, then flash latest NeatKernel, reboot recovery and flash KK roms posted in this thread.

Anyway i posted the new version of Slim.

How is LiquidSmooth going?

Do you consider it faster than Slim?

I am on Android V4.2.2. It's a HellyBean ROM with a Devil Recovery. Nothing would update the recovery because it was non-standard.

I'll try your suggestion.

[Captivate Android Development] Bronando:
Definitely boots up faster, not sure if UI is faster though.Great new features too
[Captivate Android Development] tartutic07:
Faster no idea. personally dont feel any difference between them.

, Boots no problem ,and like Bronando said , features are rich .

there will be a slight slow down after installing all the apps and back up , but after the reboot , everything is good as new.

(also the boot animation is good...)

been running it continuous , multiple apps , switching apps , all are good. No issues .:good:

Edit : Phone became sluggish after sometime , and slower slower it got.back to the Slimkat 6.8 ROM , i dont feel anything else stable in my phone atleast

Hi, found this thread and I think it's great that there are still resources for the Captivate. Mine will probably be a backup to my HTC Vivid, which is suffering from a newly cracked screen at the moment (but everything still works, so we'll see). I flashed the Neat kernel and SlimKat 4.4.4 to my Captivate, and everything seems to be running smoothly (and I now have TWRP recovery on my Cappy! Sweet!) but I have a question about apps. All of my apps seem to be installing to the system partition, which fills up quite rapidly since it's only 1.2 gb or so. The 16 gb storage partition is going virtually unused. How do I go about installing my apps on the storage partition instead of the system partition? Do I need to reformat the entire thing and reflash from scratch? It's been a workhorse, but it's had everything from stock Froyo 2.2 to CM 11, and it's entirely possible the partition setup got borked. Thanks in advance for any and all help.
