Hi, there!
Before I get started here, let me apologize if this subject has been covered before. I can't seem to get the forum keyword search function to return any results--at all- and I don't have time to read pages and pages of threads to find what I'm looking for. If there is a better place for this, please let me know.
I'm new to the Nook Color, and I'm running CM7 nightly release from 07/02/11. I love it, but I have some questions and a comment.
When the app drawer is open and you long-press an icon, it used to put a shortcut to that app on the homescreen. now it brings up this weird little submenu... What exactly does, "Choose Catalog", mean and what does it do for us? I REALLY miss that long-press to add shortcut to homescreen thing. Is there a setting that I can change to re-enable it?
Is there a specific thread to use to give feedback and ask questions about the nightlies' that is for the Nook Color only? I saw one for the nightlies, but it seemed that it was mostly irrelevent to us since all manner of devices--includung phones-- were being discussed.
I've just been using the CM7 nightly releases with Google Apps installed. Am I missing something by not installing Dalingrin's clockwork mod kernel? I was afraid that it was a replacement--not an addition-- for the CM7 nightly build. Should I install it? I'm sure I'd like to overclock my Nook to over a gigahertz, but I wouldn't like losing the stability and fumctionality of the nightly build I'm using.
Thanks in advance for any assistance y'all can offer.
Looks like the launcher is sorta corrupt. Try a different launcher that will work. Go Launcher EX (free) on the Market. Launcher Pro Plus is the best I think but it costs a little amount. Oh, but if you want to really stick with the stock launcher, go into Settings>Applications>All>ADW Launcher. And uninstall it. Then re-flash CM7 Nightly + Gapps and it should be restored.
First... on the launcher screen... use menu... more.... make sure homescreen is not locked.... Then it will do as you're used to regarding placing on launcher screen.
Actually... you don't have to unlock desktop... just wiggle finger when the menu you are talking about is up.... you will have to unlock desktop to move the item or delete it if you want.
Now I will edit this to answer more... just wanted it posted before you did anything as drastic as replacing or reinstalling your launcher...
The CM7 user thread in the Nook Color section is a great place for discussing all things NookColor CM7 related.
What the catalog does is....
You can place apps in a catalog... then when you're in app drawer then the left and right app launcher buttons turn to < >... use them to move between catalogs... ALL apps will still show everything... but in each catalog will show only the apps you add to it... so you can create a catalog called "Utils" and place all the Nook Color and CM7 utilities in it... scroll to is and ONLY those apps will show on the screen.
As for Dalingrin's OC kernel... if you're not using it and his NookTweaks... you are TRULY missing out... STRONGLY encouraged to use them.
Oh and don't OC past 1.2 GHz in NookTweaks.... it will give you SOD every hour.
Thanks for the quick response. I didn't know about the long-press-and-wiggle technique, and it worked like a champ.
Do I have to start over to install Dalingrin's mod? Does it replace this operating system entirely?

No you don't have to start over... just flash it after anyof the nightlies... any time after.

Really? What about some people reporting being able to go up to 1.6 ghz? One of the reasons I bought the NC was in hopes that it could run 1.3 or 1.4 ghz stable.

That is a pretty dumb blanket statement especially when there is a percentage of users who have hit 1.3GHz and higher without getting a sod. I get them less then once a day. I used to get them as often when I was at 1.2GHz. So please don't misinform people

Well, when I went any higher than 1.2 GHz, I got sod every other hour. When I clocked up to 1600 Mhz, the thing got SOD like every 5 minutes.
EDIT: @PoisonWolf, do you know how to get up to 1.6 GHz no SOD? I would love to be faster than the Flyer... which is double the price.
C'mon, people. We provide feedback based on our own experiences and it's not always 100% true but still, no need to use harsh words to correct the mis-info. Be nice and together we can build a strong community.
Anyway, even though I'm using Dalingrin OC 063001 version and nookcolortweak installed, I cannot ever seen any option to overclock greater 1200MHz, how do you guy get up to 1.3GHz, left alone 1.6GHz? What kernel do you use?

Well, to be able to get up to 1.6ghz, that is really the luck of the draw. I would gather that the manufacturing process is not perfect and not all chips can achieve such speeds. If anything, I would imagine there to be a range on the "limits" of these chips.
I found out that mine was 1350 mhz. No matter what I did, anything higher than that resulted in clunky responses, choking, skipping, etc.
I was hoping I'd get something in the 1.5 ghz range, but ah well.
Thus, I now run it at 1.3 ghz ondemand!
Just tinker around with the combinations / voltages / governors to see what your true limitation is. While you are doing this, do NOT set anything ON BOOT.

Same Kernel with U.
Most Nooks go around 1.200-1.300mhz.Some few lucky can go a bit more.

Hello!
I am using CM6 and I got some gliches after this instruction Nexus one hack - How to overclock nexus one
- Camera and flashlight led wont work any more
- SD card is crazy, it works then it wont work
- Same for youtube application
- Wlan bugs, stop working and then works.
I can continue this list for ever...
So now I thing that I installed too old version of zimage.
How to flash newer version where to get it and how and will it help?
Don't overclock, and generally don't do things until you understand what you're doing. Return to the regular build of CM6 by flashing it through recovery. It won't erase your data.

No, not needed unless you want to lose all data.
YAY! The camera is working again, but I am sad cuz I lost my 1,113.
Maybe there is a better kernel with camera working?
Because i liked that 1,113 so mutch.

i could show the power of nexus one to iphone fans.
The phone loaded settings and calendar very fast.
It always does. I don't think this 10% boost suddenly turned it into super-duper-lightning-fast?
why the hell its only 10percent, while evo 4g with same proccessor almost 30%.
You need to push overclock to 1267 MHz for it to be ~30%. Easy math. 1113 / 998 ~= 1.10 ~= 10% overclock.

There's a word for that: MOAR.
In most contexts, this word means that someone wants "more" of some random thing for no reason or for a nonsense reason. Except when paired with bacon. MOAR BACON is acceptable.
MOAR GIGGITYHURTZ, not acceptable.
default CM6 kernel allows you the OC to 1113.
yes ty! I can over clock it without that stupid kernel,
Why can't I overclock my nexus to 1.3 when you can with dvi 4h
To stop wasting everyone time just update to a latest kernel by pershoot or be on the original cm kernel. Both are almost same n both overclock
As of CyanogenMod 6.1 this is built in. As long as you're using RC1 or above you don't need this. If you want to overclock stock 2.2 you need to use BlaY0's latest kernel
Everything is the quote below is there for history. If I had control of the second post I'd put it there... Over the next few days I'll write a bit about overclocking on the newer ROMs (BlaY0's ROM, post CM 6.1 ROMs). Essentially, you do not need to flash a new kernel to overclock on those, they have it built in. All that has changed is that you need to use scripts or SetCPU (or similar) to boost the CPU speed on boot. BlaY0's ROM will got to 806, CM will go to 864.
Yeah, that's right. Nice little guide coming right up! Oh, why have I made this? Well, despite there being a couple of threads already talking about overclocking there is no real "guide". If there is, I'm sorry. You're now twice as likely to find a guide though...
Credits:
Kyosa - for being the first to overclock the HTC Legend
Dumfuq - for making the kernels I link to.
Anyone who's ever helped either of those two to do what they did
BlaY0 - for pointing out the bits in blue
And, of course, you guys; for owning the HTC Legend.
Please read the whole post, as well as the whole thread. Loads of useful information, that should answer most of your questions. Also: read this post carefully
What is overclocking?
Making the CPU of your phone go faster than HTC intended. If you don't understand this, or it scares you, STOP! Just back away from the thread slowly, and don't worry about it.
Why would you want to overclock?
Well, there only one real reason: to make the phone go faster. But there is debate on how much impact this actually has. Yes, benchmarks are improved, but benchmarks very rarely translate into real world performance.
What are the consequences?
I'm gonna focus on the negative ones here, because they are more important. The battery life will become worse, you're making the hardware work harder than it was designed to, it's gonna need more electricity. The CPU could also be damaged. It's known by some as a burnout. If you push the CPU too hard it can just overheat, and die. Never to return. What you might call a permanent brick, a very expensive paperweight, a window breaker, a tennis ball or just a projectile for 3 man slingshots. That last one is great fun by the way. So, be careful and start with low frequencies
Why can some phones be overclocked more than others?
Good question. All chipsets are different, this is a well known and inherent flaw in the way that silicone microprocessors (what makes all your phones, computers, games consoles and microwave ovens work) are made. Some just can just go faster. Get used to it.
Enough talk, how do I do it?
Cleverly.
Nah, only joking. You're gonna need to download a new kernel. What's a kernel I hear you ask. Well, my little minion, it's only the most important part of the Android (and any other OS) system there is.
So, go ahead click here, then come back and read the rest of these instructions.
In the post I just linked to: scroll down to the bottom of the first post, and click on the link under "legend source based" in the v3.5 section. That will take you to a mediafire page, where you can choose which kernel to use. I would strongly advise going for either the 768 or the 787. (Sidenote: the kernels are named thus: ocXXX-v3.5-legend-cm-2.6.29-signed.zip, where XXX is a number. That number refers to the max clock speed) You now have a kernel, in .zip format, that you need to copy to the root of your SD card. Don't rename it.
Copied? Good, let's move on:
So, on you phone go ahead and open up ROM manager, then tap "Install ROM from SD Card". Then navigate to, and tap on the "ocXXX-v3.5-legend-cm-2.6.29-signed.zip" file you just copied across, and a menu will pop up: ROM Pre-installation". Make sure "Backup existing ROM" is checked, and that "Wipe data and cache" is unchecked. Then tap OK. Your phone will reboot, install the OC kernel, then boot back up into normal Android. Your phone is now overclocked. Sorted. Oh, I almost forgot. Well, I did forget actually, this is an edit. You only need to back up when you go from no overclock to overclock. That way you have a copy of the original kernel. Which is a good thing...
Note: Yes, well noticed. The links to the OC kernel are in the myTouch 3g Slide forum. Don't worry about it, it works perfectly on our Legend.
More info
BOOM! That's right, more information coming right up!
SetCPU, what is it, what does it do?
Well, it's an app. You can find it on the Android market, it's also kicking around on XDA somewhere...(thanks coolbho3000) What it does is control your CPU speed, without it the phone just does what it thinks is best; which is exactly right in most cases. Using it you can overclock without a noticeable impact on overall battery life. Neat, eh?
Yeah, it's neat. But how do I use it?
Well, go check this out. But you basically choose the min and the max frequency, then choose a frequency governor. In the kernels I linked to "interactive" is best, for many many reasons, otherwise ondemand is often good. I can't make how to use it any clearer than the site I just linked to, so go read it. Twice. Also, with these overclock kernels disabling perflock is not needed.
I'm stuck in a boot loop, help!
This is another option, cheers pjgodd: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9738369&postcount=83
If you're feeling cool, or advanced, issue "adb reboot bootloader", then skip over to the bit in blue
Otherwise, take a couple of deep breaths and calm down. You calm? Good. Let's move on. First you need to take the battery out of your phone, wait a few seconds, and put it back in. Now, read what I have to say next carefully
Press and hold the volume down button while you press the power button. You'll get to a white screen with little Android dudes at the bottom. Ain't they sweet, riding their little skateboards. Anyhoo, what you see now is the bootloader, the pesky little thing that made rooting so hard. Within this area of your phone you need to use the volume buttons to move up and down in the menu, and the power button to select. So, wait for the list of files to appear and disappear again, click on the "RECOVERY" menu, and wait until you get to the infamous "red-exclamation-mark-in-a-red-warning-triangle-on-top-of-a-picture-of-a-phone-that-looks-nothing-like-the-one-you're-holding-and-just-screams-danger-at-you" screen. When you see this, ignore your instict and don't run for the hills. Just press and hold the volume up key while you press the power button. Ignore the error, and wait until you see a blue menu. Using the volume and power buttons navigate to, and click, "apply sdcard:update.zip" (If you weren't feeling cool or advanced, then ignore the bit in blue
Welcome, cool people. You got straight to the "red-exclamation-mark-in-a-red-warning-triangle-on-top-of-a-picture-of-a-phone-that-looks-nothing-like-the-one-you're-holding-and-just-screams-danger-at-you" screen, without the need for a battery pull. Now press and hold the volume up key while you press the power button. Ignore the error, and wait until you see a blue menu. Using the volume and power buttons navigate to, and click, "apply sdcard:update.zip"
Wait for it...
Wait for it...
BOOM! ClockworkMOD recovery. We're back in business! In these menus you need to use the optical trackball that HTC so kindly provided us, and click on "nandroid".
What's that? Your screen went black? Didn't I just tell you to use the optical trackpad? Use that for clicking too. Kicking youself now, aren't you?
So, moving swiftly on, click on the "Advanced Restore" menu, and choose a backup (you know, the one I told you to make earlier) to restore from. If you only have one then your choice is simple, if you have 2 or more you need to use the most recent one (duh). They're named with the date and time of the backup: "YYYY-MM-DD.HH.MM.SS". From the most recent backup, restore the "boot" and "system" backups, then press the back button a few times and select "reboot system now"
What caused the bootloop?
Well, like I said earlier, some phones don't overclock as much as others. You obviously chose an OC that was too much for your phone. Try again with a lower frequency.
What is v4? How do I use it
Hmm... I'd suggest reading up in the thread where the kernels live. The first post, and from about page 67 is all the info you need. I'll write a bit more about this in the future. This post is a nice guide though, and this is a neat idea

In last days I tried up to 806.after all the afternoon I got the first reboot.And I noticed the reduce of battery life.
Now my Legend running at 787

nice post ^^
GrammarFreak, please dont mind my being a little critical.
The subject does deserve a place amongst the other "How Tos" in the very first post in this forum but it needs to be handled with some degree of maturity IMO.
You must also give credit to Kyosa and dumfuq with appropriate links alongside because they were the very first ones to bring this idea to our community. Its unfortunate that Kyosa could not come back and give it a "complete" form as such.A link to the Benchmarks of various roms with oc by snakehult should also be given even though it may not have much significance.
Then again, overclocking Legend is possible with stock roms as well.
You may say that I should go ahead and do such a 'how to'.....in that case thanks for the effort. carry on....
Arghh, I knew I forgot something. Credits are on their way. Thanks for the heads up.
May I ask what you mean by "maturity"? Where am I not mature?

Sent from my Legend using Tapatalk
okay, you are right, but in dumfuq's thread it is described that not every legend is able to run with 806 or 844 mhz...so those boot loops are signs that you have to try another frequency/kernel, aren't they?
no offense, if you tune your car for example and your engine won't start because you tuned too much you go back to defaults, don't you?

I just spent half an hour writing a bit on clockworkMOD, and recovering from bootloops, and my internet died when I clicked "save". I've now regained my internet, but lost all my work. Grr... I'll rewrite it a bit later.

In the case of boot loops, from clockworkmod recovery I find way more practical to flash a different kernel with less OC (downloaded before or copied to sd from the pc). Why restore an entire backup?

I've had a lot of fun with my Nook, and have made all my friends envious. But the thing that dampened my enthusiasm is the poor battery life. I am running CM7 off of a micro SD card, and I swear, I have to fully charge this thing every other day ... and that's with minimal usage.
I also found the screen size kind of tiring for any lengthy forays to the Internet, and was constantly hitting the wrong links on pages because the text type is so small (yes, I did frequently zoom in when I had to).
Well, I've been sitting on the fence about buying a 10-inch Honeycomb tablet, and doing a lot of research in the meanwhile.
But today I got the push I needed when I opened up my email and received a $100-off coupon for any tablet at Staples. So, I hopped in my car and picked myself up a shiny new Samsung Galaxy 10.1. Have only played with it for a few minutes and it's a lot different than my Nook, so I've got some learning to do.
Meanwhile, my girlfriend is going to be pretty excited when she finds out I am giving her my NC. She's been bugging me for one ever since I got mine. But I may take the SD card out and let her use it stock. She's still have Internet and email access, but the battery life should be a lot better.
Thanks to everyone on these boards who have helped me with my questions.
Everyone has their own preference on screen size (7" is perfect for my needs, 10.1" would annoy the hell out of me), but if you expect better battery life with another device...well, good luck with that. =)

1. compare the Galaxy to the NC is apple to pineapple.
2. 10" is bigger than 7" for sure but the trade off is the weight. Can't use it to read when laying out bed
3. Imaging if the NC has $100 off, B&N will burn their stockroom quick.
Anyway, enjoy your Honeycomb tablet.
Oh, btw, I personally think you g/f will jump up/down asking you to give her the Galaxy
You had a good run. Good luck! Personally, 7" is about right for me for something I commute with. Battery life has been fine but I have CM7 on the eMMC so perhaps that makes a difference.
You've probably heard it before, but if you're still using the last stable version, cm 7.0.3, update (for your gf ) to the 7.1 RC1 or Nightly 136. With deep sleep fixed, I've gotten as much as six days of light use out of my NC.
If you're using verygreen's SD image, you'll need an update for that, too, toward the bottom of his OP in that thread.
I'll never understand the point of people that put up threads saying they've decided to with another product.
Fine, the Nook didn't work out for you and you found something better for your tablet needs. But honestly why do I care? I just don't get it.

If you'll be sticking with CM7, do her a favor and put the latest nightly on it. Dalingrin's OC kernel is included now and deep sleep has been fixed since the last stable release.
Nook's size is perfect for me. Battery life hasn't been a problem. The only thing missing for me (and I really mean the only thing, since I'm not looking for a tablet as a laptop replacement) is a means to make Skype calls. We're close with the partially functioning usb, but not there yet.

Bumping up the resolution to 200 or 220 will fix these problems. I'd do this before giving a Nook to anyone. There is a free app in the Market called LCD Density that will do this temporarily. To change the resolution permanently is only a small modification of the build.prop file. EX File Explorer, also free in the Market, will allow you to do that. There are many threads on XDA that will tell you how.

If you'll be sticking with CM7, do her a favor and put the latest nightly on it. Dalingrin's OC kernel is included now and deep sleep has been fixed since the last stable release.

Which number are you referring to? ROM Manager is showing a 138 that was released today. That one?

Dalingrin's OC kernel was rolled in as of n132 - all subsequent builds have it, including n138.
FWIW, my battery life is every bit as good with the latest nightlies as stock, if not better.

Bumping up the resolution to 200 or 220 will fix these problems. I'd do this before giving a Nook to anyone. There is a free app in the Market called LCD Density that will do this temporarily. To change the resolution permanently is only a small modification of the build.prop file. EX File Explorer, also free in the Market, will allow you to do that. There are many threads on XDA that will tell you how.

Wait, why wouldn't the people who put out the various roms already account for that? MIUI 1.7.15.1 is set to 240.

you should have waited few months and spend same money for quad core ICS with higher res screen. or at least wait couple months for honeycomb dual core omap 44xx like archos g9. in any event overclock the tegra2 and you're probably going to find battery life not much better than cm7 nook color. good luck to you.

Because it's a matter of preference? I have no problem with the NC's default density.
ETA: and a lot of people like a density right around 187, which makes everything a bit bigger without screwing up the status bar, widgets, layouts etc.
First, sorry in advance for the noob questions..
I am a first time Android phone owner. I ended up with the Revo because SWMBO said I could upgrade but only if it was free. Since it was the only 4G phone I could get for free (through newegg) other than the Stratosphere that's what I got. Otherwise it was the Galaxy Nexus for me.
Overall I am quite pleased with the Revo after dumping the stock ROM and installing Gingervolt 1.3. The only thing I don't like much is battery life but I understand that is fairly common among android devices. I suspect the ebay app is not helping but we'll see how it goes.
My last phone was a Blackberry Bold. I gotta say that the Blackberry has it all over android when it comes to email push. I don't much like gmail but yahoo's android app does a pretty good job, so I'm satisfied with it even if it does have to pull the email versus getting pushed. Also, copy/paste is far superior on the blackberry due to the trackball. I really don't like the way GB copy/pastes. It's a PITA.
However, after reading all 86 pages of the GV1.3 developer's thread, I see several references to supercharging.
I am assuming supercharing refers to the ability to overclock and/or underclock the processor. Is this possible with the stock GV1.3 ROM or is there an add on I have to install? I see there are apps in the market to do this. Is this the same or is this something different? I would like to overclock it a bit to see if that resolves the sluggishness the phone sometimes experiences and also see how bad it affects battery life.
In addition I tried to reinstall the stock LG weather widget by using ES File Explorer to put the .apk file back into the system/apps directory but it doesn't work. It won't show up in the list of widgets, etc. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Michael

I'll get as much as I can with this as I'm on my phone
1. Thank you so much for being dedicated and reading up on what you did to your phone.
2. Supercharging is a script. I believe it is built into the rom already.
3. To over clock the cpu download the blitz kernel and flash. Then download either cpu master or setcpu from the market.
4. Idk how to do widgets like that:-(

1: Yes, I do try to read first before asking dumb questions. Even then I still end up asking them. Thanks for your patience.
2: How do I access it? I've looked all over the place in all the settings on the phone with GV1.3 installed and I haven't seen anything like that.
3: Where do I get the blitz kernel?
4: Fair enough. The instructions I read simply said to put the file "weatherwidget.apk" in the system/apps directory and don't try to install it. But from there I don't know what else to do.

Thanks for that. As you well know some forums are not nearly so friendly.
Okay so let me see if I've got this straight:
GV 1.3 already has V6 supercharger included, but how do you access it's settings? Or are there settings to access at all?
To upgrade V6 supercharger to the latest beta I need to follow the directions in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379564 right?
To overclock I need to install the blitzkrieg kernal available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371022 and then install CPU tuner to manage it?
How do you calibrate the battery? I read this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11803458&postcount=10 Is that how you're supposed to do it? It looks like that was written for a Motorola device
I also found this thread regarding tweaks and scripts? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227269 I'm not really sure how to use any of these or whether I should use any of these.
Another note: I'm typically not a habitual tinkerer when it comes to my phones. I get them setup the way I like them and then leave them alone.
And while I am at it, since it's highly unlikely that LG or Verizon will upgrade the revo to ICS, do you think it will get done by someone here?
Thanks,
Michael

Yeah Gingervolt 1.3 has the supercharger already included, but there's no real way of actually accesing it. You might want to try downloading script manager from the market and see if you can find it that way. But if you want the latest version of the Supercharger, then ya go to the V6 supercharger thread in general and download the latest version. You'll need to uninstall the Supercharger built into the rom first then install the new one using Script Manager. The V6 Supercharger Thread should have all the instructions.
For overclocking, yes that's what you need to do. Blitz will overclock it to 1.5GHz but you can use the CPU apps to change it to whatever you like (1.5 or less).
To calibrate the battery, all i did was download the battery calibrator app from the market. You charge your phone to 100% then hit calibrate.
For tweaks specific to this phone, I would suggest looking at this thread instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420199
We're all hoping MT, the one dev we have, can work some magic and get us ICS but we just have to wait and see i guess lol.

And mega thanks to MT for all of his hard work. I would have sent this phone back if it weren't for him.
So this is the order I plan to do this. Please chime in and let me know if I am wrong. Hopefully soon cause I am starting now.
1: CWM backup
2: Install blitz
3: Install CPU tuner
4: Install script manager
5: uninstall built in supercharger
6: install updated V6 supercharger
7: Perform whatever build.prop tweaks I think I need to do
8: Calibrate battery

I need a little help. My I897 is running on MPD 2.0 ROM, w/ EyeCandy v 3.15 and Corn Kernel 7.06, and it is stuck bootlooping at the swirling optical illusion at start-up. I don't know why, all I was doing was playing a couple of games and it was really lagging, and freezing up and it has been a lot lately. I even posted about it yesterday or the day before? Whatever?
So tonight, it just froze while playing a game and it was totally unresponsive so I let it sit. After about 10 minutes, I noticed it was on the optical illusion and stuck with the illusion spinning away. I pulled the battery, restart the phone same thing. Goes through the first start up screens and gets to the swirl thing and goes no further.
I pulled the battery again and replaced it, went into recovery and hit the reboot device and started it up. Same thing.
Should I reflash the Rom? If I do, I have to do a full wipe and that will suck.
Has anyone had this problem on MPD 2.0?
Maybe someone has an answer.
Thanks, whoever tries to help me with this.

I'm not so sure what MPD is but Corn kernel is on GB. Therefor, there's no developping nor support being made for it, which could explain why you got no answer on your previous post.
Luckily, you can get in recovery. Make a backup, wipe cache/dalvik and try to boot up. If that doesn't work, back in recovery, wipe cache/dalvik, factory reset and reflash your ROM. Altough, I would suggest looking at the newer ROMs out there as we're up to JB 4.2.1 (you're on GB 2.3.5).
If you go ahead with the upgrade, make sure you follow the full instructions in the OP.
Thanks, I already reflshed and its running. I know that there are newer Roms I only flashed it because I hadn't yet flashed anything from the Collective and the eyecandy theme I wanted to check out also.
But after running great for a couple weeks, it started getting buggy. Now I'm gonna do something else. My SII is running darkside Evolution #5 4.03 by thederekjay w/venom kernel, and I wanted an older Rom in my Cap, for contrast.
I'm not sure what I'll do next. I just needed it running. It is my business line for my electrical contracting company. And it will start ringing in about a ½ hour.
Thanks, for your response and have a great day.

There are also tweaks in recovery that u can choose from and even the ability to change the partitions to Ext4. Check the kk4 corn kernel's op for info on these things.
I use my cappy for work and pretty much have stock kk4, with Root, debloated, Ext4 on all partitions and the tweaks i have are sio Scheduler and smartassv2 Governor. Runs great !

I have it running on deadline and smartass v2 and it runs pretty damn well, I dont know too much about partinoning so I have stayed clear just in case I screw something up.
What about the kernel tweaks (ROM toolbox pro) the voltage controlsyscti tweaks? What is that for, signalling the different MHz -0mV? I'm an electrician and have been for 20 years but electronics is a new hobby and the phones my new medium. I would love to know more, so if you could tell me what I should read or??? That would help me learn more I would be stoked.

OC = Overclock
UV = Undervolt
SoD = Sleep of Death
I don't suggest changing voltage on the cappy (UV). The processor isn't strong/fast enough, therefor it takes more time to process what you ask of it = more screen time = more battery drain. While screen off though, your battery will be better (can also cause black screen and SoD at unstable state). Screen on is the main battery drain for androids. So basically, reducing your voltage (UV) will lower your battery consumption, of course at a price = slower processing and despite you intention to reduce battery drain, it might increase it. The Captivate has proved to be quite unstable with OC/UV on GB and up.
Up'in your Mhz (OC) will make your phone faster but at the cost of faster battery drain and faster hardware usage. On top of that, both can make your phone unstable. Finding the right combination can take some time if you really wanna get into it. There are guides about it which you can find with a little search, altough, once again, I don't recommend it.
Thanks Bwolf, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain some of that. I have read some some of that stuff in other posts, over the past year or more that I've been on XDA, although it was Greek to me at the time. Now I knowwhat you guys are saying, I just don't know the hows or whys. In time.
I will follow your advice on the voltage and the OC and leave it alone.
There was a time a while back when I first started messing around and I changed something it might have been voltage, and my Cap went nuts. It was sucking down my battery right before my eyes, so fast and getting hot, I pulled the battery and I don't remember how I got it straightened out, but I did. Crazy! So, I know better, curiosity killed the cat (cap) lOL. Thanks Again

Hehe np. As for what happened before, pulling the battery most likely reseted your kernel settings (OC in this case) as it probably wasn't ''set on boot''. Probably saved you a lot of hastle too
