Ok. So Sunday I needed to set my wifi sleep to never and forgot about it.. after running yesterday and today I am actually realizing I'm getting much better battery life with it set to never.... I always notice it takes it forever to connect back to wireless after its asleep for a while so I figured I was spending more battery trying to reconnect to the wireless than I am now just staying connected all day long... ymmv because I'm close to an access point constantly. So its not going out of range
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
It also doesn't have the BLN bug. Glitch V11 has BLN on that works only half the time and one out of every 2 unlocks, soft buttons won't work. Thanks for the good kernel man, hope there will be something new soon :)
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
I got a new update up an hour or so ago. :p
[Captivate Android Development] Tuftylb:
Definitely try different USB ports if ODIN is giving you problems
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
MAGIC! Thanks lol, I just flashed #5, this is great!
[Captivate Android Development] kurrptsenate:
When I had this problem I actually had to use the Captivate drivers to allow mine to be recognized. I downloaded Kies for that. I still can't get my machine to detect my phone when CM7 is working properly, but I figured I'd rather my computer find my phone when it's having problems as opposed to when its not. The only thing I can't do with my phone is use ADB to reboot to download mode or push files to it. I just mount the SD, transfer, and do everything straight from the phone.

On a different note...

Had a weird problem/error on #54 where my wife was calling me. It showed the lock screen with the "swipe to answer", but disappeared after about a second. Ringer stopped and everything. Another time (same day) she called, i swiped, but there was no response from the phone. I wasn't in mid phone call, screen went back to home.

Not sure if this is an ongoing thing for me or not.
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
the new blue recovery is purrrrty :D
[Captivate Android Development] rwells813:
Yes it sure is, wish it were on CK's.. if only CM7 had its own seperate OC UV and voodoo color kernel to flash as an option

Edit: that accident should be the new CWM color. Compliments CM7. :)

Yeah me like it too! nice error! lol

I am on 53 btw since the last two nightly had nothing interesting and all looking good. :)

Has the choppy video recording been fixed yet?
[Captivate Android Development] 105437:
Sorry but I have a newbie question

I just flashed v54 two nights ago and I have my phone setup and configured the way I want it now. What happens when I flash the next nightly build? Will I lose all my settings and configurations or will I be able to backup/restore everything with Ti Backup?
[Captivate Android Development] peachpuff:
You won't lose any settings at all, but if your that concerned do a cwm backup just in case.
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
Has anyone been able to install Google Music and get it to work with getting music though the network? No mater how much I try I can not get google music to work. I am not sure if it is ROM or Google. Thought I would ask first if it might be the ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] 105437:
Thanks peachpuff :-)

Is that the same thing as using ROM Manager app to make a backup? Thanks again!
[Captivate Android Development] peachpuff:
Yup same thing.
[Captivate Android Development] jaxf250:
It works fine for me on CM7, so it's not the Rom. Do you have the settings locked down so it only streams when you are on wifi? That catches me sometimes.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Did you sign up for the Google music beta? Sid you receive a email from them that said your are now signed up or something to that effect?

Short answer is yes it is working for me. You have to use a PC to upload your personal music to the beta. Then you can start streaming the music from the cloud. I uploaded about 40 gigs worth of music I think and have thousands of songs via the apparently on my phone. It also took a couple/few days for all my music to upload via the PC.

[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Yes it is :)
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
I did get the invite and I have been uploading my music for a while now. I around 50gigs. :(

The problem I am having is downloaded the Google Music app for the market, but it's not showing up in Settings > Accounts and Sync.

It is not syncing to the phone what I am putting the cloud. I just installed the newest rom. I did a clean install and I am still having the same issue. I am not sure what I am missing.

EDIT*************

I just got it to work. I turned off Sync. Rebooted the phone. Turned Sync back on. Then when into good Music and it finaly asked me for my log in info.
[Captivate Android Development] 105437:
Thanks for the replies guys! I have a LOT to learn about CM7. I flashed Paragon to Stock to CM7.

So far I like it and will spend the next few days getting to know it. I need to do some research on OC options, battery tweaks because it's not real good so far, better Wifi signal strength and possibly flashing a different kernel if worth it.

Going to be fun!

where it says nandroid backup, i did that after flashing the speedmodkernel but before flashing the nightly. if i go back into CWM can i restore just like that? wat would have to be wiped in CWM? i flashed from KB1

Is there a way to get miui lockscreen
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
Came back to cm7 (#55) after a long time, as there were lot of bugs the last time i tried, but now it's unbelievably fast and smooooth, good reception with stock modem. can't comment on battery life now as it's been only a few hrs, but it is amazing:D, waiting for the stable version. But noticed one thing, the audible touch tones and audible selection is not working

it needs some more lockscreens (sgs2, miui etc.)
[Captivate Android Development] solarpenguin:
For me 39 was factory reset + TiBu user apps-only restore too. 43 and 50 were merely CWM installs after wiping cache / davlic cache.

Not a big deal but was wondering if the nightly build bot is broken again...havent seen an update in two days now.

Also, I am a bit curious as to why push notifications on nightly builds is not working... I try to register my phone and it fails every time...

I just want to say that , sometimes my clock alarms arent working since #29 or #36..
[Captivate Android Development] apewall:
I just wanted to note that after flashing nightly 55 I had an issue of my home button opening the clock as if the phone was docked. Only thing I found is http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/21248-home-button-press-shows-clock/ but I've done a reset to stock and flashed to rc1 but the problem persists.

Two questions :

1. How do we enable the ability to see the external SD card? Or does that not work yet? I can see my photos in the photo app and I can listen to music with the music app but I want to browse my external SD card.

2. How do you increase the volume of key presses like in a text messenger? I love the sound but can't make it louder.

I'm on #55 by the way.

How do modems affect battery life? I'm using the stock modem(JL3) and was wondering if anybody has had better signal/performance/battery with others.

Also, can I use newer modems with CM7?(aka JVO, KC1, JV6, JVK...)
[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
For the second question: Use Android Assistant on the Market for free
[Captivate Android Development] teatimest:
Same here. I was berry surprised by the fact that the google navigation worked normally under #55. The GPS is finally usable!
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Mmmm I havent been able to fix this so maybe someone has an answer...my text messages using the stock program are not giving me any vibration notices even tough it is set to do so.

I get many messages and unless I have it with the sound on, I won't notice because vibration does not work for the texts.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] gabby131:
i have vibration on SMS but only appears on Normal pattern.

even if i set it up on a different vibation pattern, when i receive an SMS, the vibe is still on normal...

Mine doesn't work either.

Er, I see Froyo and some custom elements on the screenies.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Thanks. So now I am not sure where I failed? Huh... Ok once you flashed did you get the att screen for a while? Maybe I F'ed up and didn't wait long enough. I waited about 5 minutes. It didn't take that long when I used the FIRST update.zip from the OP for it to get off the att screen. Thanks again. I will fix it and brick it again later tonight when I get home from work :D Got To figure out what I am doing wrong...
[Captivate Android Development] ademejia:
just look in the forums "odin one click "
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
interesting, mind posting a logcat with you touching the screen? because I know there were issues earlier about screen sensitivity, but never disabled.

there is no froyo in this build as it is all gingerbread from the source up. as for "custom elements" obviously set up the home screen the way you want (and no way to get rid of the power widgets in the notification bar) and if you really wanted a more vanilla look, replace the launcher with a gingerbread themed launcher (the current one is ADW)... beyond that, I'm not sure what "elements" you're referring to

it shouldn't take that long, sounds like something got borked in the installation process... should jump to the Galaxy S/Cyanogenmod screen and stay there (if anything)

Sorry if I wasn't clear, but yes I was talking about the notif. bar and the bottom "froyo" styled drawer thingy.

Ok so I tried to install cm7. Followed the instructions to the letter and I get stuck on the galaxy s/cyanogen boot screen. Been repeating steps 9-13 on the instructions without any luck.

Also have been trying to get it to go into download mode without out any luck either (to go back to stock and start over). Computer is just not recognizing it anymore. Driver pack on SDK manager is installed btw. Suggestions?
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Is it just me or is the jl2 modem on the cyanogen resource page installing the jk4 modem. At least that's what is says for baseband. Kb1 and jk3 show the correct ones.
[Captivate Android Development] lowlymarine:
1. DId you remember to uncheck re-partition in ODIN when flashing the kernel? If not, go all the way back to stock and start over. I see it now says to do so in the instructions; when I flashed it it didn't say anything and I forgot to check - now I know that re-partion is checked by default, though! :p

2. You have to open device manager, go to "? Nexus S", right-click and "Update Driver..." then navigate to the directory where you installed the SDK and pick the driver from extras -> USB-Driver. It's just an .inf, not an installer.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnnie5000:
1.yes

2. did not know that part

Got back to download mode via the volume up&down + usb cable with the power off. Gonna flash back to firefly for the night and try this again in the morning when I'm full of caffeine.

I got something weird happend.... I forgot WIFI on. So I got a random Reboot.

When the phone finished to boot, I lost Phone signal, and 3G.... and FC on the phone app... non-stop.!

I try rebooting, removing battery, Wipe Cache, etc... still no more signal :-(

I did a Factory Reset, and then Everything went back to normal.

I know it's not a final release, and bug(s) are still present in this release! But just want to let know everyone :cool:

[Captivate Android Development] buddy17:
just as a heads up....i was using the jk4 modem for months with all previous 2.2 and 2.2.1 roms, so i figured jk4 with CM7. Well, it was taking FOREVER to get a connection upon a reboot and was always switching between 3g and HSPA.

Decided to try another modem and flashed the JL3 modem, and have had nothing but great things to say about it! Talked to my mom for 45 minutes tonight (i love that woman!!) and have rebooted multiple times and connection comes on much faster. It still takes a bit to get a full connection and get a data connection, but it is within a minute or 2 of being booted up completely. JK4 was taking like 5-10 minutes.

Download/flash gapps. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Gapps#Google_Apps
[Captivate Android Development] killsto:
Eh, I posted this in captivate general with no response so I will try here.

I downloaded the CM7 nightly and flashed i ton my phone, everything seems to be great except the camera is kind of lacking. I wanted to check if it was a problem with the rom so I went to restore to a stock odin backup, but it would not restore. No big deal, so I went to flash Cognition and there was an error because the current version of Clockwork apparently did away with the old version of making update.zips which Cognition used. I also read somewhere that I can't restore any non gingerbread roms. So, I decided to install an older version of clockwork, but rom manager says it does not support Captivate (MTD) currently.

Eventually, I found that Serendipity VII is gingerbread so I flashed that. Clockwork said it worked but my phone just booted CM7 again. The website says I need to flash to a Samsung based rom before flashing serendipity, which is doable but I will probably want to restore CM7 so it is a pain.

So basically, is there a way to get clockwork to restore both CM7 and samsung based roms? Also, what does Captivate (MTD) mean in rom manager? Is that a special version of Clockwork for CM7 or something?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
CM7 uses mtd partition not like the samsung roms. To ever switch off of CM7 you have to use Odin to go back to stock with the repartition button checked. I believe more info is in the OP of at least one of the CM7 threads. If you still are on CM7 you can restore CM7 via cwm. As far as rom mananger and mtd you again need to read the OP to get the answers to be able to use cwm correctly.

[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Just some info, if you are on CM7 the only other ROM you can flashed directly over it is the MIUI ROM, any other ROM you will need to flash back to stock using the Odin 1 click so it will repartition you device.

Alright thanks. I am now running serendipity VII, unfortunately my camera's grainyness must not be a software problem.
[Captivate Android Development] cbasse:
So, I've been using CM7 (started on the RC1, then moved to the nightlies) for a week or two now and I absolutely love it! I really haven't come across any significant issues, aside from faster battery drain than other ROMs I've tried (Mosaic, Apex, etc.). I have come up with a few questions, and I'm hoping the community can help out:

- For those who have tried the different kernels (stock, Glitch, Platypus, Kernel Du Jour), have any of them provided you with noticeably better battery life, without taking away in the performance department? I'm not looking to OC/UV, just looking for a good, stable, battery-friendly kernel for everyday use. Right now I'm on the stock kernel and the latest nightly. (I suppose its possible the stock kernel is as good as the others, but I'm curious to see what other users have experienced.)

- One other issue I've had (relatively minor), is that every time I reboot the phone, my LauncherPro force-closes on me at start-up. I have just been accepting the force close option (as opposed to "wait") and LP will restart/reload and then all is right with the world -- after that, everything runs smoothly. Anyone else seeing this? Is there any way to fix this? I've seen posts about moving the launcher into the system apps folder, but 1) I don't know exactly how to do this, and 2) I don't know if that would have any impact on the force close issue.

- Is there a layman's translation anywhere for the Nightly change logs? I've been checking the change logs each day and can see that "something" has changed, but I'm not technical enough to know what changed and if I should notice any difference in my day-to-day use. Granted, some of the changes are obvious (i.e. Power Key shutter button), but others are just a foreign language to me. Not sure if I necessarily need to understand everything that's going on, but it would be nice to at least have some understanding of the changes being made and the potential impact they might have on my usage experience.

Thanks in advance for any input/experience/suggestions you have to offer!
[Captivate Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Currently using Glitch kernel v11Final, and battery life is kicken some booty right now. OC'd to 1.6ghz with medium usage I went to bed last night with 43% left and had been unplugged for 14 hrs. So that is a big improvement for me. As for LP.. I just starting using ADW (testing the waters), but when I was using LP I noticed the same kinda lag at start up. I think the Widgets were the main cause. One thing I did to kind of speed up or skip the whole FC problem was hold down the back button to kill application. It would kill LP and was much faster than the FC popup. Not sure how Lamen it is, but in the changelog, I believe you can click on the individual items and it will bring you to the comments and changes of that particular item.
