i have been checking mine the whole time....yesterday the phone was idle all day other than a 14 minute call and still only lasted 9 hours....i am just looking to get a day maybe a day and a half with light usage, and yes 3 days on stock rom seems more accurate. but i am never getting more then 12 hours even with hardly any usage.
[Captivate Android Development] Doug8796:
Can you guys make some kind of trick/hack to use the AT&T uverse app? i cant use it because im assuming they think im on a nexus .
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
That's more like it! I'll look at this later today.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Why is this odd? We've said it is a bug - we cannot put the processor and devices into deep sleep yet because we are missing some driver code. It'll get fixed as we manage to either decipher what is supposed to happen, or when we get source for each device.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Nothing unusual, I have display that take the most which is 50%
[Captivate Android Development] tifxalex:
Just have to say that the latest nightly is awesome
[Captivate Android Development] prayii:
Yesterday was my first full day using 5/9 and I got 18 and a half hours of battery and I was down to 5% left.

5 minutes of talk time

&

1 and a half hours of web browsing/texting

Stock kernel (ondemand governor) @ 1 ghz with jk4 modem.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
Is that all you were doing? Nothing else? Just curious.
[Captivate Android Development] prayii:
I use CPU Spy ( http://market.android.com/details?id=com.bvalosek.cpuspy ) to check how long my phone stays in different states and at first it never went into Deep Sleep, but after switching to the conservative governor in CM7 settings and rebooting it started reporting I was using Deep Sleep.

I switched back to ondemand yesterday and it still reports as using Deep Sleep.

Is it just not reporting correctly?

It says I am in Deep Sleep about 75% of the time.
[Captivate Android Development] prayii:
Using the browser/NewsRob to catch up on some RSS feeds.

Oh! I also use the audible app to listen to audio books. I probably listened for an hour yesterday. Forgot about that. Screen is off during that time though.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I just can't believe you, or my phone is just crazy 0_0
[Captivate Android Development] prayii:
I'm charging now so the battery stats are frozen from yesterday. Here's a screenshot I just took.
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
I normally get about 150-200 Touchdown emails daily, send about 100 SMS, and have to play some games for about 30 mins to an hour and listen to music all day long. Talk time about an hour a day. I get between 6 and 8 hours and need a charge.
[Captivate Android Development] prayii:
Sounds right. An hour of gaming = about 50% battery for me and adding in an hour of talk time + random other stuff would pretty much finish it off.

I don't use my phone for talking and rarely play games.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
I have noticed in late nightlys that sometimes my GPS icon will just turn on and stay on, even if i disable GPS. The battery drains like a tank and there is no app running which might be causing it.
[Captivate Android Development] Roof King:
Use your "back" soft key in the backup menu and it will take you up a folder level so that you can navigate to emmc and then you'll be able to choose from there. You can't just type it in anymore.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
CPU Deep sleep is good. But it doesn't mean all the devices are also in low power mode (we are working on this, but aren't done yet), so battery still drains anyway.
[Captivate Android Development] matt310:
I see this behavior when using the SGS II's 'secret wallpaper' which looks for your location and weather at pre-determined intervals when you unlock your phone. Switching away from this wallpaper makes a night-and-day difference in battery life, but I keep the wallpaper enabled because it's so cool!

[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Hmm my phone is crazy and always starving I guess lol.
[Captivate Android Development] asshopo:
Is receiving MMS still an issue in the latest nightly? I know it's been talked about before in this thread, many times over the 600 pages, which makes it hard to look for.

edit: spelling
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
don't even have it installed
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
You have the apk for the wallpaper
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Only with iPhones as far as we can tell. Tell the people sending you MMS'es from iPhones that they're holding it wrong. And to send whatever it is they're sending over email . . .
[Captivate Android Development] ozone777:
What does "each your kitties" mean? :confused:

Is that code for something?
[Captivate Android Development] asshopo:
Lol, nice. Too bad over half of the people who send me MMS are iPhone users :-/ Is it a formatting thing?
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
You are a winner! You actually read the OP closely! Wish some of the others posting here would take that much care about reading the OP and FAQs . . .

Thanks (typo fixed too)!
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Yes, iPhones seem to either not be following the specification, or we can't handle whatever specification they are sending. I haven't looked closely enough at it, but given that iPhone MMS always used to show up as something else for me before (video even if the MMS was actually an image), it is suspicious anyway.
[Captivate Android Development] thatg:
hey sorry too much messing around for me so was hoping to get a mini tut. i flashed the stock 2.2 using odin, flashed speedmod kernel with odin, flashed the initial kernel using CWM then let it reboot it tries to flash the initial rom and gives me an error (bad) what am i missing here?
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Reading the instructions carefully (there is no mention of speedmod kernel there so I suspect you are not doing what the instructions tell you to do).
[Captivate Android Development] thatg:
i tried using the video tutorial from back when the efs backup had to be flashed as well. i tried renaming the kernel to update but when i get into the 3e recovery it tells me signature verification failed. installation aborted.
[Captivate Android Development] switters1:
damn. my mom recently got an iphone and loves sending MMS.

Unfortunately, there's some people you just can't recommend an android phone to..
[Captivate Android Development] switters1:
I don't mind the daily drain since I carry around a spare battery.

What kills me is the 35% drop overnight. I've overslept twice because the phone shut down in the middle of the night

(yeah, yeah, I could charge it, but I usually fall asleep reading something or watching something on it)
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Read the Instructions!. They have all that you need.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Read the Instructions. Everyone using other people's instructions, make sure that they are current. The only "official" set of instructions are linked to these OPs.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Do not @#$% with the INSTRUCTIONS - they are linked to the OP for a reason. They are the only official instructions and the only way to get into CM7 that will always work. Re-read them every time you want to install from Stock because they are subject to change!
[Captivate Android Development] yamahakid:
how do i go about doing it if i do not have the 2e recovery though? cannot flash the first package because it doesnt pass signature verification in 3e recovery which is what my phone currently has.
[Captivate Android Development] thatg:
after some searching it seems theres an issue with either some or all phones and they will not flash the initial rom.zip i flashed the nightly using the instructions and its up and running. but everytime i put the phone to sleep it wont wake up. is there a fix for this issue?
[Captivate Android Development] yamahakid:
that is the problem that i am having. my phone does not have the 2e recovery, and the 3e checks signatures and that package fails the verification.
[Captivate Android Development] vunuts:
Read the OP.... Concerned with one issue.

First post stated that it will eat my kitties. I woke up and my cats were gone and my phone had whiskers and was chilling in the litter box.

Good work CM team, keep it up. This thing is coming together quite nicely.

I flashed the froyo speedmod kernel which has clockwork recovery built in. That allowed me to flash the initial kernel zip without a problem.

Why not use Odin1Click and go from there.
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
This rom completely self destructed on me. It was the fastest best rom I had used. Then two days later, I was getting tons of force closes. Then it quit booting entirely. I assumed something had gone wrong during the install, so I odinned to stock and reflashed. Two days later I had the same problem. is there some kind of file corruption going on?
[Captivate Android Development] Uncle Irish:
No, it's a good place... great place... I'm just glad I found it before the alarm went off.. hard to explain liquid damage to the warranty center...
[Captivate Android Development] switters1:
Lol. Bunch of pervs in this thread!
[Captivate Android Development] zerojay:
I had the same problem at one point. I don't know what is causing it to happen, but yeah, it feels like the install just kind of rots and falls apart at some point.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Install one that contains Stock 2e recovery obviously. Or one that contains ClockworkMod recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] apples2droids:
ok so i just flashed the CM7initial and i'm getting some crazy things i've never had before, just wondering if it's just me or what. i can live with everything except these two things that are pissing me off.

1. on my softkeys, my back button and search button don't work, and the home button function was replaced with the back button functions, so no home button multi task option.

2. the biggest is my phone thinks it has headphones plugged in at all times. and to take a call, i have to plug something into the jack just to talk on it.

any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:

[Captivate Android Development] apples2droids:
Lol. I just figured, man it's been too damn long since I jacked some **** up on my cappy.
[Captivate Android Development] apples2droids:

Change the colors to something dark.
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
LOL! I have read that line and I guess since I knew it was supposed to say "eat your kitties" since that is what the CM forum says, my mind auto corrected "each." I would have sworn that it had always said "eat your kitties."
[Captivate Android Development] apples2droids:
Stuck on initial. Oh well, back to odin for me.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Just put the two darn zip files on the root of your sdcard, boot into recovery that can flash the kernel.zip (meaning 2e or CWM, rename to update.zip for 2e) ,and go. It isn't that hard . . . but if this is hard, leave it alone. Not being able to flash CM7 is a test of whether one should run CM7. We are thinking of adding a quiz next.
[Captivate Android Development] apples2droids:
Lol. Good call shaolin.
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
If you are, it needs to involve adb skills. Like really, really, really needs to involve adb skills. :p
[Captivate Android Development] nkrick:
Do you think more than half the people who have installed CM7 even know what adb is or does?
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
It will involve things like "What should the zip file be called before it can be installed by Stock 2e recovery?" and "Where should this file sit before you can install it?" and "What is the step after 'Reboot. Welcome to CyanogenMod'?". "What zip file should be installed to enable Google Android Market, GMail, and Contacts?" and "What is the command to download a dmesg, a logcat, a last_kmsg?"
[Captivate Android Development] gabby131:
i dont know adb.....what i know is to search and follow instructions. but if adb skills will be needed/required, there is the internet to learn some of basics......or my kitties will be eaten....:)

Is Rom Manager finally usable? On the latest rom manager i hit install clockwork and it came up

Vibrant ( MTD )

Captivate ( MTD )

I9000 ( MTD )

I didn't install because i wanted to know before i try lol
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
ROM Manager works, just make sure to choose Captivate (MTD) and you should be able to do backups, restores, and installs straight from ROM Manager
[Captivate Android Development] brendanmurphy:
Sweet now all we need is to be able to download each nightly from Rom Manager and were set :D
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
We could add that now, but it is a little confusing because we're actually a CyanogenMod 7 ROM. But we're not official yet. So we have to figure out how to do this.
[Captivate Android Development] BelvedereWRX:
Any chance of getting the new Music app released today signed and working with CM7?

Obviously not a huge deal, I'm just curious.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
None. It will have to be done upstream for every phone by CyanogenMod. But you can get it from the Market I believe.
[Captivate Android Development] pparavas:
download it from the market, its already working.. replace the existing one...
[Captivate Android Development] oriveradel:
have you tried Cf-Root EXt4-v1.2 add on

CWM works great with that, and ext 4 conventer.. super fast

alright, can someone please verify the rom and cwm they are running when flashing the initial kernel and initial rom.

i want to flash back to stock using this one click odin and then flash the speedmod kernel to get cwm, these two links. please dont tell me to read the instructions, i've done it, im obviously retarded, just help me figure out which rom or cwm i should be on these are the two links ive been using

you don't need to flash anything for CWM. if you odin one-click back to stock JF6, you can use recovery 2e as it's broken. read the instructions, it's clearly explained.
[Captivate Android Development] thatg:
please enough with the read the instructions, when i flash back to the rom in the link i posted i have a 3e recovery not 2e. how can i get back to 2e?

When you take an HD video while holding the phone in a vertical position, the video is warped when played back in 16:9 full with Mobo Player.

Ahh! I could pass that quiz. Lol. Didn't realize my kernel wasn't on the root. It didn't copy from Astro. My bad yo...my bad.

...on another note. The initial is running like butta! ....props to a job well done once again, atinm and team.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Use the odin package for the JF6 2.1 eclair, that will give you the 2e rcovery then just follw the instructions.
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
No, I won't cool it with telling you to read the instructions. FFS it's the god damn FAQ right here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=982776

it specifically addresses how to go back to FULL STOCK you are going back to some crappy leaked 2.2

if you would take the time to read more than 13 seconds you might have gotten up off your ass and figured it out, but since you need it spelled out for you, install this:

and just stop. don't install CM7. don't move past that point. stay on JF6 and go away.

if you don't know how to use your phone, or how it works, don't install this ROM. clearly you don't.

[Captivate Android Development] thatg:
THANK YOU!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Yaantra:
Ok, since you have been struggling with this, this is what i did in exact sequence... you may try this at your OWN risk!!!

1-Get back to stock using odin-one click

2-master clear - THIS WILL WIPE OUT INTERNAL SD CARD AND ALL OF UR DATA (i backed up all my apps in tibu and saved titanium backup folder on pc beforehand)

3-placed the update.zip (search for this on the forums froyo roms section), the needed CM7 files, titanium backup folder back on internal sd card

4-got into 2e recovery and applied update.zip, rebooted and had to re-apply update package for CWM recovery to show up

5-use CWM to install zip from SD card and install the needed CM7 files per instructions

Most of these steps and steps needed after this to restore your apps (only) should be fairly common knowledge if you are a flashing junkie. If not, and if this is your first time, i would recommend (again, at your own risk!) practicing with froyo or other ginger roms first.

Good luck

I did the below steps and in continuous boot loop.

1. Went back to Odin 1 click stock.

2. Copied both initial kernel and the latest update to the sd card root.

3. Went to recovery using "reboot recovery" ( I think this is the mistake I did).

4. Re-Installed the packages and rebooted.

That's it. It is in continues boot loop and cannot get to download mode or recovery by any means.

Is this means soft brick or a hard brick.

make sure you have the usb drivers installed on your computer before anything else, heres how to get into download mode. first make sure you have the odin your using open, then remove the battery from your phone, plug your phones usb cable in while holding the volume up AND down button at the same time put the battery back into your phone. your phone should now be in download mode. then just click start on odin.

[Captivate Android Development] goabunny:
I followed the steps you mentioned as it is but no luck.
[Captivate Android Development] SnakeHaveYou:
Nightly, built from sources (Wiki has been updated), with Gingerbread Bootloaders..

Easiest way to install!! You'll get 2 CWM flashable zips: Initial Kernel and Initial Update..

Initial Kernel has the EFS backup script included, so you only need to flash this zip, from any ROM with EXT4 filesystem with CWM.. Reboot and after that, flash the Initial Update zip, that recovers the EFS and flash the System.. It will automaticaly reboot, and you'll get CM7 running :)
[Captivate Android Development] :
I've been using CM7 for a while using the flash method, I'm too lazy to build. :)

Gives me something to look forward to though!

Edit: Wow, looks like I really need to update my Sig. I haven't been on that ROM since I don't know when.
[Captivate Android Development] Jemack:
If you can get to download mode just odin back to stock.
[Captivate Android Development] mirrored:
why did the installation instructions change?
[Captivate Android Development] jaysix79:
This is how i flashed my CM7

1. go back to stock 2.1 eclair

2. move initial kernel and initial captivate file on your sd drive. and rename the INITIAL KERNEL to UPDATE.

3. go to recovery mode (press vol up and down and power at the same time till you see ATT logo and release)

4. install package then wait till it reboot to the newer recovery mode (should be orange font by now)

5. install initial captivate file and restart the phone

6. go back to recovery and install nigthly update then restart the phone

7. done
