K will do. Just curious though. What exactly does nandroid do?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t-readyroc:
Here's a question I was curious about: does CM utilize the Captivate's hardware sound chip, or is sound processing done in software like with i9000 ROMs?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
if you don't know the answer to this question, I suggest holding off for now. this rom isn't stable (or even guaranteed to work halfway decent), and since you seem relatively new around here you should perhaps go back to something more stable (2.2) until most of the bugs have been sorted out.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atinm:
Not yet. We don't have all the drivers needed so I am not using the hardware sound chip but Nexus S seems to have the same code so I am going to try to enable it and see what happens. It is in the same part of the code related to sound issues including headset that I am working on.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t-readyroc:
Thanks Atinm. Kaik actually just filled me in on IRC as well. To clarify, I was referring to the Audience chip. Good to know that it's in the plans. I suspect that the Nexus S source should help some in the work you're doing.

Big thanks again to everyone working on this.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phateless:
Completely agree with this. This ROM and its set-up process are a bit more advanced. I'm holding off on flashing this to my gf's phone because I don't want to have to maintain/troubleshoot it yet.

If it were my phone it would already be my daily driver.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ellioso:
I was so glad to see a 2.3 MOD finally came out for the cap because I've been craving the additional HTML5 implemented in Gingerbread. However, after seeing the tutorial video it seems sorta daunting compared to the Froyo roms.

Could someone who has flashed this please do me a favor and go to HTML5TEST.com on their captivate browser and let me know what score you get? I really wanna see what score it gets in HTML5 Audio particularly for MP3 support.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnyg1097:
So I watched the video on how to install the rom and it said to go back to 2.1 stock, I noticed that it was the AT&T stock and since im on Rogers should I go to the AT&T stock 2.1 or can I use the Rogers Stock one?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techmik67:
you can start from any 2.2 rom that has speedmod or firebird kernels....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnyg1097:
Awesome, thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dante04SRT:
Its somewhat different than flashing a std 2.2 ROM, but it's not difficult - Follow the video EXACTLY and you'll be fine. I was.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dante04SRT:
I may have missed it in the past 22 pages, but if I wanted to flash back to stock from CM7, do I simply use the ODIN? I don't have to do anything else? I'm not worried about losing apps or anything, but I was unsure if I lose anything else (IMEI info) by going this route?

I just recently upgraded to nightly build #57 and everything works great but when I go to use Android Market app and go under "My Apps" I only have 2 listed. none of the other apps are listed which are installed on my phone. Is their anyway to clear out the Android Market app so it can rebuild the list of apps?

thanks

Nevermind... I fixed it. In order to fix my problem of not seeing all "My Apps" under the android market. I had to go under settings > applications > manage applications > select "all" tab > find "Market" > select "force stop" > select "clear cache" > then "Clear data"

This fixed the issue

Camera saves files where?

It seems the camera saves it's pics to the internal sd card under DCIM folder by default. Is there anyway to get it to save (and display) files to the external sd card as a default. I could not find any setting that allowed that. On stock captivate running 2.1 or 2.2 the camera would default to the external sd card which is convienient for file retreival and such. Any thoughts or suggestions?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockRatt:
Right now that is the only way the camera can save them. What I do on a regular basis is use root explorer and go to sdcard/dcim/camera then menu button, multi select, select all. THEN with root explorer move them to external SD/ make a folder called scum, then make a folder called camera, then paste them into external SD/dcim, camera.

Try flashing clockworkmod, pick captivatemtd, select yes, select 3.xx. reboot, open RM try rebooting into clockwork again.

Edit: correction, i misread, is your recovery - update.zip inside the clockwork mod folder? And I'm not sure, but little while ago kushe said he was getting new servers installed. Could be related. And by now they should be up. I'd keep trying to reflash clockwork. And rebooting. I can't think ATM.

Latest CM7 nightly

Anyone else experiencing random reboots with nightly 62? It's already happened to me 4 times today. Not overclocking, regular kernel, the only thing I had done before each reboot was send a text message using Google Voice. Going back to 55 for now until I hear more opinions.

Hey guys I know this has absolutely nothing to do with the ROM this forum is about, but I figured I could get some help on this page. I'm running Speed and Looks Limel!ght and it seems to be working great with the exception of one thing. It keeps randomly shutting down and it brings up the little green Android alien thing for a few seconds and restarts. Have any of you used this ROM? Has this happened to you regardless? I hope it has for my sake! Thanks in advance, Clink.

Need help

first off, let me start with im sorry if this has been asked already... i been searching and not finding...

i have flashed plenty of roms b4 and have never ran into this issue... i just flashed cm7 and am having some issues... i have tried flashing cm7 twice already and just getting frustrated and goin back to previous roms that i no work just fine but i really like cm7 and want it to work...

i am trying to restore my apps with tibu but its not working... b4 i was on the free and i was getting a package parsing error... then my friend suggested the paid.. tried it then was just getting a failed... then my friend said no do the batch restore... worked on most but i still have some that arent working... any help???

----------

i am also getting force closes on everything... plz help???
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
I don't use TiBu and I have zero issues. Go into market and view your apps .. reinstall them that way. I know its a bit of a pain.. but I have an average of say 30 -40 apps and it only takes a few minutes to get them all started. As for all the FC's.. only thing I can recommend is a data and cache wipe in recovery.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpeagle:
the only problem with that is starting over on my games... i have never done a restore thru the market so i dont no if this happens.. and i would rather not start over....

tried the wipes in recovery... still fc on everthing...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
Yeah, your data wont be restored thru market. Didn't think about that :p. But man.. that sucks.. have you tried a factory reset?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makelegs:
Sometimes things just get mucked up, and the only option is to do a full wipe. With cwm a factory reset doesn't actually wipe everything, though. You should prolly supplement your reset with a /system wipe, too. I use a format script that wipes system/cache/dalvik/data TWICE....(thorough!!). You can do the same thing manually in cwm. I suggest trying that, and then flash ur rom + gapps and then try restoring your apps, again.

Worth mentioning that there was yet another TB market update, yesterday, I think. Maybe update to that, first. You can also use TB to create a flashable .zip to flash the TB app onto the phone before you even reboot and sign in. DO NOT restore any system app data with TB!! Only restore user apps + data, otherwise you'll end up with just another mess on your hands

....life of a crackflasher ;)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpeagle:
im not exactly not sure on how to do a /system wipe... but as i mentioned b4 this is my third time trying cm7(i dont no if this changes anything) and the other 2 times was the same issues... every time i flash i use odin to go back to stock jf6 then master clear then root then flash.... just as the instructions say and same problems every time... but i have noticed that the issues are only after my tibu restore(which btw i updated not too long ago so it should be the most recent)... and i NEVER do the system data(i no that its a definite no-no)... so this just leaves me with am i doin something wrong??? am i missing some important info somewhere???

i feel ya on the crackflasher... i cant even mention how many roms i been thru lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockRatt:
What were you on when you backed up your apps with tibu? Sometimes something saved while on eclair doesn't like working on froyo and likewise the same could happen going from froyo to cm7. I would suggest you back up with tibu all your appear but don't use them yet at all. Exit to recovery and perform a wipe data/factory reset. You will then need to reinstall gapps. Then go to the market and reinstall all your appear tbrought the market. This will give you fresh appear and versions on your phone. Then the appear that you WANT/NEED to have data like your games ie: Angry birds. Open tibu. Find Angry birds and click on it. CHOOSE. restore DATA ONLY and NOT APP AND DATA.

Have you tried reflashing?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabby131:
restore only apps.....coming from a different rom to CM7 and restore app data (especially system data) will cause crashes, FCs and millions of FCs. though restoring GAME data is fine, don't restore app data that has root access, runs as service or internal.

I always had this before and I was blaming custom kernels but those things have no meaning on crazy FCs.

Parsing error is, I believe, a cache issue; probably also related on restoring apps. If you have done reflashing and restoring data but still get Parsing app errors, try wiping cache and dalvik.

Issues with Gmail and Flashing new Modems

I have been using CM7 since before the nightly days and am noticing for a while that if I check my Gmail messages (aka read them, star them, or archive them) they update on my phone (and the accounts settings for auto update is ticked), but when I check Gmail on my computer all my "work" isn't there. Has anyone else noticed this or know a fix?

Also, I have noticed that when trying to flash new roms from multiple sites posted in MIUI/CM7 posts, that they complete successfully, but when I go to Settings-About Phone it shows up as the original stock modem JL2. Is it flashing correctly and my phone isn't displaying it or is something stopping it from flashing properly?

I'm running Nightly #66 and stock kernel.
