Just flashed Slim ICS and Glitch kernel b5, coming from THS build 17 w/ Glitch b5. Having issues with not being able to access certain apps due to my device being "not compatible". These are apps that were running fine before flashing Slim ICS. Anyone else having similar issues or have an idea how to fix this?

After a 3hour upgradathon I got my Galaxy S from 2.2.1 to 4.0.3 Onecosmics ICS. I am using it for less than a week and I can say it is pretty smooth but there are still bugs which I am not sure if there is a dedicated thread to report or check if they are known issues. To add to that I dont have 10 posts so i cant post in the development section.
I have checked Onecosmics Troubleshooting.
The OneCosmic thread isn't so great at listing the known issues like the teamhacksung build.
The best source is the google code page for known issues and workarounds.
Searching the thread for the issue before posting is a must, usually the bug and workaround have been posted 10 times already.
Wow. It is interested, make upgrade over more version of FW. U need upgrade first version to 2.3.5 (2.3.6) XXJVT, XXJVU or XWJVZ, rooted it and after that is possible make 4.0.3...
Before and after all steps you need make wipe data, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache in CWM recovery mode.

Thanks rax22,

I have already installed ICS on my device.
I know. More problems (solved or unrecorded) created when you upgrade from 2.2.1 to 4.0.3 directly. System needs to recover with stock ROM, in this case one of 2.3.6 versions.
I have Team ICSSGS (incidentally pulled RC4) and I have no problems, despite the fact, that more users with this RC have some problems.
Whenever I flash a custom ROM from stock eclair, the camera just doesn't work half the time. The camera app would open and it would just be a blank viewfinder. I found that closing and reopening the camera like 3 or 4 times fixes it temporarily. When I leave the phone sitting for a while and try to open the camera, it always opens with the blank viewfinder.
I tried searching about this but I guess it isn't a common issue at all, so if anyone can offer any advice I'd appreciate it

Well this really depends on the ROM you are flashing when coming from Eclair, which ROM did you try, and which kernel with that?
Well, I was on Team Hacksung's ICS build 17(icy glitch v14 b6), AOKP(same kernel), Doc's Master(the kernel that came with it), and Slim ICS 3.1(the kernel that came with it). I also tried a custom gingerbread ROM which I can't remember the name of atm.

OK, I think the problem is that all of the roms you've been flashing are ics builds and all of the ics builds for the galaxy s are ported at the moment, and because they are ported they don't always work. So my guess is that your camera doesn't work because of your ics builds, why don't you try a ROM built for captivate like fasty ROM or darky ROM or even cyanogenmod7?

I actually have tried cm7 but the camera would not open at all with that one.

None of the CM build are made for the captivate, try a rom built from stock and see if the issue happens on that. Maybe try legend rom from crt it is a very good rom based off of stock kk4.

I've tried flashing legend but that got me into a bootloop. I have successfully flashed Simply Stock, but I had the same camera issue.
This was a while ago, but I remember having camera problems as soon as I got the official gingerbread update from froyo. If I remember correctly the camera would always force close as soon as I opened it.
you must have a hardware problem.
camera works fine on ICS for the past 2 months at least. nothing but bad advice in this thread. i am running AOKP right now. used camera today.. used it now.. it works.
cm camera works fine, cm IS built for captivate, or in those thoughts... CM isnt built for any phone..??..
Well, I should also make it clear that the camera always seems to open with no problems on stock eclair or froyo, so yeah... it's a pretty strange case. I don't really want to trade everything else great about ICS and go back to froyo because of my ocd lol.

That's kind of what i meant lol its not a stock build.

Um, so is it unlikely I'll ever be able to fix this issue then?
Had same problem with every ICS rom I've tried. Seems camera only works with LCD density set to 220, at least on my phone. Check if it makes a difference on your phone. Under Settings > ROM Control> General UI> LCD Density
Hi,
Anyone else having problem with hot reboots? Had texas, bcm and aopk on my phone but never had a solid running system.
Right now I've got aokp which only gives me one reboot right after start.
What is your experience?
I have been running BCM for days now, without any issues. Check your partition formats, start with clean flash and see what happens.
Formated the old sd card via gparted. For the new one I used 4ext recovery...
And I always make a full wipe before I flash a new rom.

Which version of AOKP are you using? May 30? It seems that the dev has confirmed the software and hardware problems. He recommends to use 1 or 2 version back. I am using May 27 version and didn't have hot reboot issues often. It rebooted sometimes.
I got the same issue with setcpu v2.4 running with these ICS rom's. I upgraded setcpu then things are OK now.

I also use the May 27th version.
In the meantime I tried every other ICS Rom once more (texas, BCM and Miui V4). Also flashed those roms with the kernel aopk uses.
So far aokp is the best one.
Hopefully aokp will be continued soon.
@phhuang
Good idea. Gonna try setcpu.
What are your settings?
I had the same reboot problems you have with BCM older than 12/06/09.
Since then, no particular problem, except the governor falling back to userspace after each reboot, hence quite laggy.
I have some serious issues with my (technically not mine, my brothers but whatever) samsung galaxy s i9000. I am looking for an ICS rom that is so stable that it never crashes or suffer the stupid datafix problem (where it says the memory is full) I have tried CM9 stable (useless) with the datafix provided here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1665742 and here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777444
I can't sit everyday and reflash new roms for him. I need an stable for without any issues (read datafix issue making the phone crash, slow and FC) I have also tried CM9 with semaphore kernel, still the same problem.
So who has got the solution? Is there any solution to this?
Been on SlimIcs for 2 months(?) Now without any problems since. Try it out, just do an as clean install possible
Try ICS333 +data fix included in the instructions, 3months with no problem at all

recently installed Hellybean ROM from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775169
and that include Devil config too
Soon after that I experience serious issue,hacker remotely control my phone :crying:
fortunately nothing important he could find there yet but I need to get rid of it now.
Those are the symptoms.
Soon after I put phone to battery remote control takes in place.
Actually I can see hacker trying to login to my bank account-(which he will never find )
virus run when on battery only
Avast report no issues
AVG report no issues too
Also since phone is rooted only 3 aps that have access are:
devil kernel config
devil kernel manager
Spirit UL
PLease tell me how to get rid of the beast
PS: i would love to post this to HellyBean thread but don't have neough points yet
anyone with the same issue?
Have you tried using Titanium Backup to look for a system app culprit?
My bet is there'll be one you can freeze and remove, since you have root, it's you're slightly familiar with the apps in your room it should be relatively easy to spot...

I am not sure what I did but virus disappear for now.
and thx anyway. now i have another issue HellyBean ROM 4.1.2 was working fine and then suddenly gallery stopped work along with the camera. it reports "unfortunately, gallery has stopped working" error.
Now I would like to reflash my device in order to get back functionality.
If I reflash 4.1.2 with 4.2 HellyBean ROm will it keep all my apps and data untouched ?
