Latest nightly should fix it for you. But if you're having problems with a custom kernel, ask in its thread. It keeps this one cleaner.

[Captivate Android Development] cumanzor:
Yeah latest nightly fixed it. And yeah asking in the kernel's thread makes way more sense. Thanks!

I DL'd it on my pc, first time it stopped at 30 something mb. Second time I DL'd it, it was the correct file size and the MD5 matched.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Just downloaded, MD5 matches. Not gonna flash yet, but thought I'd throw that out for you guys.
[Captivate Android Development] tonyc0642:
I can report that so far I have had no issues with #17. Voice, text, and usb storage all seem to be on the up and up. Data seems a bit snappier, but that could be coincidence. The OS seems a bit snappier and smoother all around. That's all I've tried so far.
[Captivate Android Development] ShadrachCA:
Could be my imagination, but I noticed that when I moved from nightly #13 to 7.1 KANG my battery improved significantly. Anyone else experience this? I also changed my modem from JVO to JV6. Not sure if that would impact battery much.

Am I correct in assuming that whatever changes were in KANG that gave me the bump in battery are also in the 0603 nightly? First time in a while I've been able to get good battery life on my cappy and don't want to lose that.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
I noticed that my battery life and time in actual use went up and worked longer specially since going to the first Kang update. So +1 here.

Also I had downloaded the link that Atmin posted yesterday over 3g/h signal then when I got home I downloaded again over wifi and both had the same md5 and flashed with no issues. I have not seen any issues yet.

I really want to use this rom, but theres one thing that annoys me, if my battery is saying its at 93, and I restart when it starts back up, the battery goes to say, 85%, so i never know the true percentage? otherwise I used to love this rom, I had a htc magic with it on, so fast, even when I tried it on my cappy, it was ones of the fastest roms I've used!
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
I have explained this many times. The hardware reports the "percentage of total charge" that the battery has. But it doesn't actually allow the battery to get to total charge and stops earlier and calls it "at full capacity". Earlier we were reporting just what the hardware reports, but that meant you never saw the 100%. So I modified the code to mark when the hardware reports "at full capacity", and use that value to calculate the percentages. But if you reboot, I don't know what the "full capacity" is anymore and so I just return what the hardware returns until you recharge to full. Samsung ROMs do something very similar, so if you're happy with Samsung ROMs, this should be fine for you. Regardless, it will never returns *more* than what you have, so there is no danger of you dropping to zero while you were thinking you had 5%. It will just drop until the two values get closer and closer to each other (two values meaning what the hardware reports and what I calculate based on the percentage of max).
[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
hey there atinm that was a great explanation, I appreciate it, makes sense now, sorry if you had to explain that again, I should have looked through the threads

Is the new nightly compatible with the new cm 7.1 radio partition?
[Captivate Android Development] Sarcoid:
Nightlies are built on latest so it makes sense that it's using the new radio partition.

i cant seem to download the lastes nightlie (#17) i keep getting errors, i cant even open it

*edit: i download it, will flash asap
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
have you checked the Md5sum? see if they match. might be incomplete file or bad download? :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] SweetwaterBurns:
Seems like the file on goo-inside.me is corrupted. I don't know what any of the other mirrors are, but I finally was able to download it after trying for an hour. Rom manager is nice in that it checks to see if it is corrupted automaticly and I just kept redownloading until it said it was ok.
[Captivate Android Development] zmore:
FWIW - the nightly #17 that was downloaded from http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/cm_captivatemtd_full-17.zip and redirected to http://mirrorbrain.cyanogenmod.com/cm/nightly/captivatemtd/cm_captivatemtd_full-17.zip has the bad md5sum of a24d42511edfbeeb981fb8816cbca42a

However, my second download redirected to http://koush.kanged.net/cm/nightly/captivatemtd/cm_captivatemtd_full-17.zip which did match the correct md5sum of c92712dbb4bee953bd7bd4e0dda7ed76

The bad download isn't just slightly bit-corrupt, either, it's all bogus zeros for whatever reason:

[Captivate Android Development] Thnikk:
it's a bit buggy right now, but it will probably improve over time
[Captivate Android Development] Sarcoid:
Yeah, that must be a bad file on that mirror. I managed to start a download from there and got the same checksum as you.
[Captivate Android Development] scottlinux:
Upgraded from 16 to 17 via rom manager + checked google apps. It also took me a couple of tries to get a zip that wasn't corrupted.

I only opted to clear dalvic, and left data. All is well!
[Captivate Android Development] rivera151:
Hey guys. Great job so far. A couple of questions...

1. What's the ETA for a stable build?

2. Why does my battery 100% act weird?

3. Why can't you guys implement battery life like so many other ROMs? Why don't you ask for help from other ROM devs for this?

4. I installed the ROM but I can't find the market? WTF?

(Ducks)

Ok. I hope you laughed when you read that. Now for some real questions...

1. Not really a question, but just to let ya'll know; no problems with hard (USB) tethering. Don't really use WIFI tethering, since I'd just rather charge while I use the internet rather than have 3g AND Wifi draining battery.

2. Should I really try to wipe and reinstall initial build + latest update like some have done, or are the updates from nightly over and over pretty much the same? I don't think I need them, but then again, there's stuff I havent been able to do, like bringing the brightness down from 20, and I wonder if that would make a difference.

[Edit]

3. Will I ever see a 'Show/Hide hidden files toggle on the File Manager? This sounds upstream, but what the hell...
[Captivate Android Development] mose2000:

I hope i didnt miss this in previous posts but what happened to the the list of radio's that were available on Sourceforge to download. I am on JL2 with very bad reception and want to try others.

What is the difference between nighlty #17 and 06032011 nighlty sorry for the dumb question
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
I believe they were removed since they will not work with the new builds since the radio partition is different. If you look back maybe a few pages I posted kinks to many different modems and I have tested each one on my phone.

Atmin said last night it is no different, just that they got the rom manager working is why it is #17 there.

using Kangs sourceforge for the cm7 voodoo but the zip doesnt seem to like to be flashed in cwm? going to try to inject the zimage into a regular cm7 update package and give it another go. For those looking for Kangs or lost it a few pages back *like i did*

[Captivate Android Development] coderunner:
Someone attached this earlier in the thread is this the kernel with voodoo?

Edit: I unziped this and its kernel and it flashable so and I can't find the post but assuming by the file name that its a cm7 kernel with voodoo added. am i right
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
ROFL

I wasn't complaining. I actually think it's better that it's harder at least until it's more bug free. Was just stating for the record that it's not necessarily "literally only one more step".
[Captivate Android Development] nlancaster:
I have to thank all the Developers who have created this.

I purchased my phone January 9th and within 10mins flashed perception 9.9 I think. Since then I have ran thru perception and about 6 other roms trying them all out.

And this rom is by far the quickest to repond to commands. Even with some of the bugs it is my favorite so far.

Keep up the awesome work, and get that bug free version out. :D
[Captivate Android Development] comdei:
First rule no ETA :)
[Captivate Android Development] Aus_Azn:
Yes, you are, and that's the file.

It has Voodoo sound and colour added; I'm not sure about sharpness and obviously lagfix is now moot.
[Captivate Android Development] bamonkey:
thanks for confirmation. the zimage in this is the same size as the one i just pushed to the update package ;)

edit: woot! version 2 of voodoo control app opens! my ears are happy again!
[Captivate Android Development] coderunner:
If I have problems or want to go back to the cm7 kernel can I just flash it with odin?

I think the color looks nice with the cm kernel, it always seemed over saturated to me before
[Captivate Android Development] cumanzor:
Here you can find the CWM flashable .zip files.

http://kang.project-voodoo.org/
[Captivate Android Development] Aus_Azn:
Believe so.

There won't be any colour adjustments until you actually muck about with it in the Voodoo control app. If you like it as is, then just don't touch the settings in the app! You will need to touch the reset button in each section of Voodoo colour in the app if you do!

EDIT: In the above link, I see a Voodoo v4 kernel, according to the site. Time to upgrade!

EDIT2: False alarm, it still identifies as v2 in the app.
[Captivate Android Development] laz0r:
Wondering if this felt pretty laggy to anyone else. I installed it and the launcher and settings feel extremely laggy but I havent really seen anyone else talking about the speed.

ATTENTION: A voodoo-sound/voodoo-color capable kernel has been posted on the first post (thanks to kang/kangsterizer for this source tree) that we currently provide ABSOLUTELY NO SUPPORT FOR

[Captivate Android Development] milkyline:

[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
You need to tell ROM Manager that you are on Captivate (MTD). If you are already on CM7, pick CWM 3.x and accept that error it throws up about CWM 3.0 already being installed and continue. Our phones are not Samsung phones anymore once you are on CM7, what you are seeing are only the Samsung ROMs because ROM Manager thinks you're on one until you explicitly tell it to use the (MTD) version which only CM7 uses and Samsung ROMs do not.
[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
If i flash this Rom, then want to go back to a 2.2 Rom, can i just flash it, or do i have to Odin back to stock?
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
This might not be totally related, but what is better, Glitch V10B or Escapists Nightly #4? I've always used Escapists but when I had MIUI I tried Glitch and it was nice too. Which do people generally prefer in terms of speed and stability?

Also, glad everythings back to normal, flashing #17 :)
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Odin - the partitions are completely different on CM7.
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
Escapists. ;)

Seriously though, I have no idea. Never ran glitches. I am interested though, to see how I can improve mine. :p
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
One more vote for Escapist's - mostly because he talks to us, so I can see what he does. I don't think I know who does Glitch.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
I thought so. Escapists has been nothing but amazing, been using it since Kang kernel fell behind. Too bad I can't understand the name, I don't speak spanish /troll

Thanks for the votes guys, flashing kernel. The colors of CM7 just kill me, the transparent blacks look pink.

EDIT: Flashed, thank god for accurate colors. The kernel boot screen still catches me off guard once in a while.... Escapist is there gonna be an awesome boot screen soon? Glitch (when I used it for MIUI) has a cool one, saying Galaxy S and in a red glow Glitch under it. I'd love a sexy boot screen :)

EDIT2: I'm probably missing something here, but why is there no haptic on the rotary lockscreen? I can't find an option for it, and I saw something about it in the changelogs.

Also, removed LED settings is right? Causing problems?
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
I vote for Escapist too. Well I know it is not fair since I have never tried glitches. But I will say I have stuck with the Escapist Kernel since the beginning just because it works and I have had NO issues ever with it. If applying glitches is as easy as Escapist download both and try them out.

Plus Escapist is a young pup so I know he stays up late after doing his homework :) and keeps us pretty well up to date with his kernel in parralell with the nightlies. NO OFFENSE Escapist on the age thing, just I remember being young once many moons ago. Heck I have kids older than you and I'm only the big Four OH. Haha

[Captivate Android Development] Smasher816:
It is a problem with the Theme Chooser. I don't think the kernel should affect that at all. The kernel is the link between hardware and software (screen color, backlight control, etc.)
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
I must be amongst the rare group then. The two times that I have flashed Escapist, I have had to flash back to something else because I get increased lag and fc's. My phone pretty much begins to stutter. This is kind of a downer because I NEED my Voodoo Sound, lol. I have to go to work tonight and my music won't be the same w/o Voodoo.
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
Voodoo app is compatible with stock CM7 now.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Download the kernel (Nightly #4), flash it in CWM, then wipe Dalvik cache. Works perfectly for me, always. Try again :) my CM7 is crazy fast and has no FC's ever. Seems like Amazon Appstore causes lag though.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
I did that with CM7.1 KANG and Nightly #3. I even used that kernel cleaner that somebody posted and still had the problem. Just finished downloading the latest CM7, so I guess I will go ahead and get the #4. No problems with Amazon AppStore, except that I lucked out on getting mSecure for free....

Now if I can only figure out why Winamp is having issue with folder structures. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
omg he asked that which must never be asked?!?!?!? Everyone run!!!! ;d
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Weird... so did I, with the exact same files, and it works well. I'm sorry dude.

I donno, Appstore just seems to add a bit of lag.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
I will give it another shot. I may just have to reflash it at some point. Now I'm just hoping that with things running smoothly again, I can flash modems again and try something else. Maybe even get rid of that weird signal/data loss issue that creeps up around 2 - 5 AM.
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:

[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
No clue, I"m in GA. JK4 was awesome at first, so was JP9 AND KB1, but then I get lots of degredation. I don't think I've really tried out JV6 or JV0. I need to find that modem list, wish they would add it to the OP or something. In the process of installing 17 from ROM Manager now, looks good so far.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:

haven run this rom in a long time, im considering trying it again.

is it pretty stable overall?

and can you install apps like regular through the market? (and restore with titanium backup?)

thx
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Completely stable.

You could always install apps through the Market just like any other ROM... and Titanium backup works flawlessly if you do a specific procedure that I do not have a link to. Since there are different versions of something (forgot the name) in every ROM and CM7 has the absolute newest one, apps restore fine but data doesn't. I'm sure someone can provide a link to the procedure to make backups work again, but yeah that's it. They work except for data unless you take a quick precaution, in which case they'll work perfectly.

If you're on #16 and you flash #17 you will not lose any apps or anything :) just flash it in CWM and you're set. Reboot, and you'll have all your apps and such.
