if you installed the gapps add-on then you should have the market. what exactly are you doing?
[Captivate Android Development] geokhentix:
Yeah, that's the one I ended up going with. Seems to be working fine, yay for undervolts! So far so good, think I found my new daily driver. It's only been an hour, but what can I say? I'm easily manipulated, that was my problem in high school. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
Thanks, that's exactly what I wanted. I just didn't want to flip that switch on this ROM w/o knowing what could/would happen. Didn't want to check it and have my data go boom or something.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
Yeah, I'm going to wait on Escapist until CM7 is closer to final. I'd rather not risk fubaring my phone because I tried to OC it.
[Captivate Android Development] rpicaso:
So will this eventually be available CWM flashable?
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Yep...ETA is December 22nd 2012 :D
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
no it wont. there are many reasons why it wont be.
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
hahah funny guy ;)

figured id go ahead and be the 100th person who thanked you. what can i say....im a nice guy
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Sorry couldnt resist and thanks! LOL
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
it's already as "cwm flashable" as it'll ever be.

the instructions will never have less steps, so if that's what's holding you back, don't expect it to change.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
It looks hard compare to others but I got it right on the very first try...just go step by step...it is very detailed and accurate.
[Captivate Android Development] apples2droids:
Am I the only one who used the super awesome super easy video- how to, on page one?
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
possibly....i just read the instructions and flashed. bada bing bada BOOM!!
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Video adds steps and skips steps. If you are up and running, cool, but I think reading the actual directions is best option
[Captivate Android Development] rpicaso:
I figured as much. have done it before and will probably do it again soon. was just wondering.. thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] godzulu:
Read instructions, watched video, flashed on Friday night - flawless. I have not even flashed another kernel or modem and that is a record for me. CM7 rocks
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
No, I used it as well. Connexion's videos are always super helpful.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Guys for the love of God I cannot find again the option to hold BACK to end apps. Where is it again?

ah! Not sure what i had it sent in my head that it was in the CM menu

Thanks!

Hey folks... just a minor (I hope) issue I'm having here. I'm attempting to return to stock using Odin but am unable to get Odin to recognize my CM7 Captivate. I've installed SDK and updated to the Google USB Drivers r4.

In device manager (Win XP SP3), I see my device listed under Android Phone, as Adroid Composite ADB Interface. I expected it to be listed there as a Nexus S, but it is not, and I cannot seem to get it to that state. I'm assuming this is why my phone isn't being recognized by Odin as well, which leaves me stuck on CM7 for the moment.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] RMXO:
I had 2 flawless installs by just following the video.
[Captivate Android Development] ksimilie:
is anyone using swype on this thing, I got the beta but i get wrong device error. And im not sure if the fixes are compatible with gingerbread.
[Captivate Android Development] jayjr1105:
Do you mean it won't recognize your phone in download mode? Open odin first, get into DL mode, then plug in. I have been using this version of odin lately, supposedly safer.
[Captivate Android Development] apples2droids:
This so a noob ? but, heh. How in the world do I change, my avatar on the forum. Lol. I love android dude, but I'd love to start reppin mah teams. Tis the season!
[Captivate Android Development] silversleeper:
Well, I believe it wasn't before. I just stumbled upon a Odin 1-click to Stock 2.2 and tried it and it worked this time. I seriously thought I was stuck in CM7 without the ability to flash to stock, maybe it was human error afterall. Thanks for your help!

Oh, and there is nothing wrong with CM7, for the most part, I just need to wait til a few more bugs are ironed out. All in all it was a pleasant experience and I look forward to coming back to it in the near future.
[Captivate Android Development] cropythy:
This is definitely the wrong place for this question and really should be in Q&A not Dev...
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
For sure wrong section bro. But go to user cp. And in the left hand column it will have the avatar options. But for future reference this belongs in Q&A not a dev forum.
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
The one click to stock 2.2 is out dated (JI6) kies mini is the only way to get official 2.2 KB1.

And what bugs are you referring to in CM7?
[Captivate Android Development] atinm:
And people say we're not helpful and don't answer questions . . . ;)
[Captivate Android Development] loserskater:
I'm using swype just fine. I had the same issue because I restored it from a Titanium Backup. After uninstalling swype and reinstalling through the beta installer, it worked.
[Captivate Android Development] InfDaMarvel:
Just installed CM7 on a Captivate. The wording for the instructions are alittle confusing but I certainly got it to work.

Only problem I'm having is with the external sd card not being seen. Is this a known bug or what am I unaware of?
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
U should read the known issues before flashing... The external SD will not be recognized when plugged into a computer but you can still access any content on it on it phone. If u have root explorer or something similar, the external SD is emmc and u can access it from there

did you forget to install the device driver for windows, as per the FAQ explains?
[Captivate Android Development] kwhee07:
do the OTA updates work for anyone? I bought rom manager pro to do this, and it just sits on registering with server? also, rom manager cant seem to find updates to the rom from within the app.
[Captivate Android Development] carbon12:
Got my Swype back yay!!! Anyway, cell data icon is still showing when connected to WiFi... It used to go away, but it would show up momentarily whenever a data app would start and then disappear, but now it never goes away but it is not showing activity on the up/down arrows... What am I missing?
[Captivate Android Development] bugity:
I doubt they work I get the same thing it just hangs on registering but I don't use rom manager anyways.
[Captivate Android Development] bugity:
What kernel are you using?
[Captivate Android Development] apples2droids:
Thanks for responses. Will for sure keep these kinda ?'s in Q&A going forward.

Real question though. If I try to run 1300ghz at any UV settings and it freezes on Neocore, everytime, is there anything I can do, or anything I'm missing. If not, 1200ghz still runs like butta. :)

I'll totally be sending a donation your way Escapist, once I get my next paycheck.
[Captivate Android Development] MisterAnthonyxD:
OTA updates are currently not available for CM7 Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] MisterAnthonyxD:
Go to TheEscapist's page to request help. This page doesn't support any other kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
as has been stated before, don't use ROM manager and no OTA's until mainline.

wrong thread.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
Yes but I'll try again.
[Captivate Android Development] carbon12:
I just rebooted my phone and its back to the momentary behavior... Its not causing errors but it is odd none the less.

If there something the phone has to do over the cellular data network? Regardless of whether the wifi connection is up? It seems that it always happens when I open the market place app, but only occasionally other times like the first time a data app is opened after a restart...
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
Everytime I open market the data connection comes up only for a second.

Edit: not every time but when I initially open the market it will pop up. Haven't had an instance of it not going away tho

Odin?

I've looked around and the only download for Odin that I can find is the one that flashes it back to 2.1.

I figured it would be here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/teamhacksung/files/captivate/ but it isn't. Does anyone have a link?
[Captivate Android Development] MisterAnthonyxD:
Google "Odin 1.7" and the first link that shows up should be it.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
if u still need odin 1.7, here it is

edit: nvm i couldnt attach the file. however go to http://www.mobiletechvideos.com/blog/?page_id=186 and download the ODIN 1.7 Firmware Installer and u'll be good. additionally if u have the AIO captivate tools v2.5, go to flash to stock then 3 button fix is the correct odin
[Captivate Android Development] carbon12:
Not sure its a real problem then... I will keep an eye out for a more unusual instance...
[Captivate Android Development] ty.wolf:
Sound is really low

All the sounds on my phone switch from normal volume to really quiet...all the volume sliders are maxed out...is this a know bug or just my phone???
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
by any chance do you have quiet hours enabled? check at menu/settings/cyanogenmod settings/sound/quiet hours
[Captivate Android Development] ty.wolf:
yeah tried that thx....it will be normal for like 10sec then goes quiet
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
Check under the sound settings in CM settings. You might need to tweak the dB levels.
[Captivate Android Development] JJ133169:
""All the sounds on my phone switch from normal volume to really quiet...all the volume sliders are maxed out...is this a know bug or just my phone???""

I noticed this on another rom i have. Is the sound coming out of the ear piece and not the speaker?

i think it happens sometimes when you adjust the volume in a call sometimes. for some reason it may stick to ear piece. try making a call, hitting speaker then hanging up, that usually fixes it. if that doesnt work do the same, but after speaker is on turn volume using side buttons to max.

[Captivate Android Development] hamburgertrain:
Can I get an ETA for a stable release?

:cool:

No but seriously, my notification bar is missing a column of black pixels. Flashing the latest nightly doesn't help, could reflashing the initial fix that? and would there be any drawbacks to flashing the latest initial?
[Captivate Android Development] jetpuck73:
The only rule of CyanogenMod: you don't ask for ETAs.
[Captivate Android Development] hamburgertrain:
It was a joke..
[Captivate Android Development] Aus_Azn:
Sure it was.
[Captivate Android Development] david717:
Lol, it was def a joke. But lets just ignore him.

Reflashing probably would work, but you might just be able to replace the file that handles the notification bar. I'm not sure what that is or if it would even help.

In samsung roms it services.jar, maybe? Or, framework-res.apk.

Edit: Wherever you get it from, should probably be redownloaded.

Again, probably won't work, but didn't want you to go ignored cuz some needed a sarcasm font.

Guys, I am getting 'no misc' partition and the phone will not boot?
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Quick questions in Step 6 Flash a kernel which comes with clockworkmod-recovery using odin: Captivate | Galaxy S | Vibrant..... since the idea is to get clockworkmod...is that the same as if I were to just place the Clockworkmod update.zip and flash that instead of flashing the kernel?

I end up with Clockworkmod recovery both ways so just thinking...
[Captivate Android Development] Killemalll:
That's what I did when I flashed for the 1st time CM7. Just used the CWM update.zip to get in 2e recovery mode
[Captivate Android Development] NightFalcon27:
I would suggest using the one that they provide on the downloads link... I tried a different one the first time I tried to flash cm7 (can't remember which kernal) and I soft bricked... I would for sure not suggest to stray from the instructions.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Exactly, from what I can get the point is getting clockwork mod but then again, maybe saving a couple of seconds is not worth the risk :D
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
Actually, the only reason you need cwm is for the efs backup. If you have efs backed up from a previous cm flash, all you need to do its flash the initial kernel, then the initial zip.

Guys multiple times I have gotten all the way to flashing CM7, the phone will always end up going back to recovery unable to boot because error no misc

I apologize if this has already been asked and/or answered but I did search and couldn't find anything. I've noticed that when I'm on a call, I get five very annoying beeps every 60 seconds. This only happens when I'm using my bluetooth headset. I've checked every standard system setting, plus the CyanogenMod settings, and haven't found any way to disable this. Does anyone know how to stop this? It's driving me nuts!
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:

Now I am up and running, but the phone thinks my internal is full, it is not? It wont let me install ANY programs.

Also every time I reboot, it is not remembering the gmail account info?
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
I guess that never occurred to me. I've had this headset for about a year and a half now and it has amazing battery life (I can listen to music for 20 hours and still have a charge). I've never ran the battery low enough to get any kind of warning out of the headset...but I haven't charged it in some time. I feel a little dumb but this is a very real possibility. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll plug it in while I sleep today and see if that solves the problem. I just assumed it was the phone because it beeped in 60 second intervals and the timing coincided with the call timer on the phone. I suppose the battery warning could very well have started counting down when I answered my phone call.

Edit: Wow...I definitely feel like an idiot now. Lol. I got my headset out of my car and turned it on as I walked in the house, just to see if it would do anything. It beeped five times, just like it did on my call. Oh well. Glad it's something retardedly simple and not an issue with my phone. XD
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
maybe try a fresh flash. but make sure you format system, data and cache.

The problem i have is that multiple radio dump files get created in my internal SD card each of 37 MB so they eat up a lot of space,even if i delete them eventually they reappear..one more problem is the signal loss..most of the times i lose the signal and status becomes "emergency calls only"..i live in india and my network is airtel,iam using JK4 modem..can someone please suggest me a good modem coz am so pissed of with this signal dropping issue,it wasnt there when i was on 2.2 or 2.1!
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
37MB is very small in comparison to your 16GB internal storage....check out the modems on the CM7 page and flash different ones until one suits your fancy.
[Captivate Android Development] smackdownn:
37MB is small but 15 files with each 37mb is 555mb and it looks so annoying like a big list gets created in root of my internal SD card like RADIO DUMP XXXX01,02....

and the thing is they just keep increasing its like 5-10 files daily!

and do u experience any game lags?? coz i experience lag issues for many games even the asphalt 6 3.1.6 which supports nexus S and galaxy S
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
no i havent experienced any lag. you dumped all the radio files and they keep increasing the size daily? is that what you're saying or am i off a little bit?
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
their implementation is awkward at best. they're using the froyo kernel for epic, which is completely worthless for us. I've talked to coolya and shown him the AOSP/CM work being done by both the Epic and Fascinate guys and he said "nothing of use here." they do good work, but it doesn't help us in the slightest... also, I'm under the impression they're directly modifying framework and system application files instead of using the preconfigured cyanogen methods available (which is something the team got a finger-wag from cyanogen for 6.1).

if you aren't comfortable running beta software, go back to a samsung ROM. there are bound to be bugs and there are more important issues than "asphalt is slow"

I am running into an issue where Pandora loses its log in info after a cache wipe or dalvik wipe. Is there something I can do to see why this is happening or is it a problem with Pandora? It seems like any time I pull the battery or apply a nightly it loses the info then too.
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
Take this to CM7 Q&A section. this isnt a dev related topic.

I also havent experienced this issue with Pandora. back up your pandora settings in TB then restore it if you lose the log

Listen I followed steps EXACTLY, the phone would reboot into the CWM not bootup, after trying 4 times it finally booted, when it booted it would have no internal storage space available.

I wiped and started all over again, and now same **** it BOOTS INTO CWM wont load the rom.

WTF IS going on here.

I am not technically challenged.

Odin 1 click stock

CWM/EFS BACKUP

odin cm7 kernal

wipe everyhting

flash cm7

NO PROFIT?
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
seems someone missed a few steps, imo.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
I have the initial rom file , and you only need to use the speedmod kernal if you dont have CWM that is just to create a EFS backup.

If you already have CWM then you are fine, that has been confirmed in this post.

and I did do the factory reset data wipe after flashing...

THE THING JUST WONT BOOT and the EFS restore was good during flash.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
How about trying ALL the steps as per the OP just to make sure....
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
how about instead of telling me your process is right (even though it won't boot) you actually follow the full steps in the instructions?
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:

[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
are you positive on this statement?
[Captivate Android Development] Konner920:
AOSP only runs on Ext4. Though usually during the installation of Cyanogenmod, it reformats the partitions to Ext4
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
i was aware of the ext4 partition conversion for cm7. i just wasnt sure if others knew the same...
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
misinformed at best... CM7 runs on yaffs2 as well as ext4. AOSP has been updated to INCLUDE ext4 support by default.

our build script doesn't truly convert anything, it uses raw flash to create new partitions in the MTD layout (BML is defunct)... these partitions are set up with ext4 and yaffs2 by default.
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
good to know! i was unaware of the yaffs2. i learn something new everyday.
