CyanogenMod 11 loaded up and working fine on the Samsung Captivate - no problems came from 10.2 so didn't have to do anything other than make a back up and install . Also installed newest Gapps . :good:

Yeah I know - I read those - but the XDA forums won't let me post there until I make ten posts in the general areas. So gotta start somewhere.

Ok so I have flashed CM11 and it works fine except for "OK Google" doesn't work. I came from OmniRom 4.4 and there's is almost perfect except there is no screenshot without installing framework. So when I do that it makes my Music force close. I wipe and reinstall, wipe and reinstall still no luck. Ant ideas on how to get "ok google" to work? I tried going in and removing the code that is posted in the dev forum but that didn't work for me either. Otherwise great job everybody.

Maybe it will get fixed on one of the new nightlies . There always seem to be a lot of bugs in these new versions that get fixed eventually. For me MX player worked but after the newest nightly yesterday then it wouldn't load up. But I found the built in video player is working fine.

It's MX Player issue, not CM11.

MX works again - camera fixed with clearing data

Yes - the newest update of MX now works. The camera didn't work in the newest CM11 nightly but I used Titanium Backup to find the camera app and cleared the data and that fixed the problem.

Mic Only no sound on phone calls with Hangouts enabled
Currently on Cyanogenmod cm-11-20140108-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd.
During phone calls the other party cannot hear me. Using Groundwire sip client no problems with voice both ways.
When I disable Hangouts the mic functions normally. I have tried factory resets and re flashing without success.
I also had this problem on 10.2 but did not diagnose the problem. I had resolved this problem previously on a ROM (not CM) by flashing an upgraded ROM. This was before Hangouts I think it was the Illuminiance ROM.
I don't have access to XDA developer forums.
I had no success in google so has this been reported before and should I report it on a different forum?.

I wonder if there will be a xxx-gapps-rom.zip for the 8.9" version soon?
Cool, as soon as I figure out how to get supersu on the hdx ill give this a try! Thanks for working on it!

That would depend on there being a SafeStrap for the 8.9" version soon
This works great on my tablet BTW. Thanks!
Hmmm looks like I might be the first one to try this out. I'm downloading now and I'll report back when it's finished.
Update: Installed the ROM and immediately hit the Play Store. Tried to add an existing Google account but it caused a reboot. Right now I'm stuck on the calculator since I have no nav buttons
Update 2: Tried to enable Wifi, got another reboot.
I'm going back to my stock ROM slot for now, being unable to use the Nav buttons makes this a bit difficult.
Installed and working perfectly. So far everything but gmail works, and works really well. thanks Cpasjuste.

The problem can only comes from the data partition. Did you try to first restore your stock data partition then flash the zip ?

Just tried it. ( Restoring data, flashing the zip).
I can see my apps from my stock ROM so I know the data restore was successful. I'm still missing the nav bar and Play Store still results in a reboot.
EDIT: Just tried it a second time and it seems to be working.
So unlike your flashable zip for the stock firmware this ROM gets rid of the Amazon Video App correct. Amazon video has Prime Instant Video Offline Downloading and that is a killer feature for me. Anyway to sideload that stock APK and have it work?
Here's a video of the end result

thanks
Thank you for making this rom! The only good rom each use gmail error alone!! Hopefully the next version will optimize system and fixes gmail thank you very much!
Ty very much!!!

It does say it removes ALL Amazon background services, so, Sideloading probably will not work, at least not enough for the app to recognize this as a Kindle.
i can't long press anything with this rom... it just flips the screen around. can't get to the apps settings either. also, games like shadowrun always are upside down.

I use Nova launcher and long press works fine. Hungry Shark Evo always starts upside down for me but I guess unlock rotation lock, get it right then relock and it's fine. It's a pain but works. Only that game does that to me so far. Not sure why...
Soooo.... I installed and this was working OK, but random reboots. So I went ahead and wiped dalvik. Now I've got a bootloop. Is there a way to access safestrap?
***edit-fixed*** adb reboot got me into safestrap

The screen flip only happens in landscape mode, not portrait.
Temporary work around is turn on the "lock orientation" in the notification area (left most button), then it won't flip.
A slightly better work around is smart-rotator app.

Turn on fix orientation for the apps you want to "fix".

[SOLVED] No Google play in Slimkat 4.4.2 build 3.0 stable

I cannot post in the developer forum yet, so I ask here instead:
I have done the installation as usual (full wipe, and also installed slim gapps, the latest release).
For some reason I don't have a Google play in the latest Slimkat.
I cannot setup google account, and Gmail and other google apps refuse to start.
Something strange during first start-up: There was no guide to configure the phone as it normally is. It just went straight to home screen.
I have done full wipe again, and reinstalled everything, but the same issue. No google play.
This is not my first custom rom, I have had previous slim versions installed, and before that a lot of other custom roms, so I think I know how to install everything. Before this version I had the previous beta of slimkat installed.
Any suggestions?
device not supported...
I tried to open some other google apps, as well as the browser. Either they close directly, or show a message that my device is not supported by google play services.
Back to froyo, and now it works
Returned back to gingerbread and flashed slimkat again, coming from CM10, etc... yeah you know the deal...
Now it seems to work fine with google play

[Q] Nameless ROM Nightly + GApps (20140411) no voice serach

Hello,
unfortunately I can't post a question under development forum (some error about not having enough posts), so here it goes in QA forum.
I've flashed Nameless nightly (20140415) ROM and installed Gapps from 20140411 on my P970.
Neither from Google voice search nor from Google Now I can't perform voice search. Error is that it can't connect to Google servers. Is this a common problem, can't find what is the problem.
Thanks in advance.

I'm using Banks Gapps from 2014-04-11.
Apps work, Google Now works, gives me tiles, etc but voice search does not work anywhere in the OS.
One more thing,
I don't know if this issue is related but when I'm monitoring microphone icon on the search bar, it flickers mos to the time it is just an outline (i.e. microphone is not listening) but it goes into filled 'grey' mode for very brief periods of time.
I also tried to use Voice Recorder app and then play back the recording - sound recording level is very very low.
I will try tonight to go back to final nightly CM 10.1 build and see if I have similar issues.

did you try flash new gapps? sometimes gapps give error. did you update your ROM lately? you can try flashing PA Gapps or Slimkat Beta gapps. they work nice. i flashed update on my phone and first google services didnt work and then just google play was not working but i guess it will be all good if you try flashing gapps again. as they update gapps, probably yours outdate or something tho.
I will try and flash different gapps...Thank you for you help :good:
Hope you fixed your problem about google play. New gapps may solve your google play. Lemme know if its working OK.

Did you clear data in app management.. It survives uninstall.
This issue has popped up recently. Try finding a pre-4.8 version of the google search app from an old gapps, then turning off updates in the play store. Not sure if it is all ROMs, but there is something going on when it tries to activate voice output. Definitely does it on Benzo. I tired using the latest Google TTS and it still does it.
Im not sure. But read on Aosip forum its related Viper.

So easy choice then. Unoticeable difference between velvet 4.7 and 4.8 vs very large difference between custom ROM and stock. [emoji56]

Been doing this a long time. Not a big difference if know how to hard code.
Thanks for the input. I did a full wipe and factory reset and reinstalled the stock Rom. Works perfectly
