Is your Incredible Stable? or Do you get Force Closes?

I have my Inc running Cm7 7.1 RC1
Radio 2.15.10.05.06
Kernel Chads Incredikernel 7062011
Why the hell is this setup so unstable?
Some days it runs fine.. Other days I get force closes on messaging, Android market, the camera,
Its so annoying..
To everyone else how stable is your phone on an every day basis?

Exact same setup as you, once in awhile FC on startup for a few apps, but no FC otherwise. what's really annoying though is sometimes entire system becomes unresponsive and auto reboots

If you undervolted your kernel then this is a common issue, and it means you should raise the voltages.
--
Also I haven't gotten any FC's running CM7.1 #106 nightly.
If it's bugging you enough and you want to *try* and fix it then I suggest you flash the latest nightly (#136 or 137) - but make sure you do a full wipe and format /system. Also clear all your caches. If you do restores from TIbackup then make sure you don't restore data.
That's all I can suggest, hope your problems with CM gets sorted out eventually.

^ Also try fixing permissions.

im not undervolted... sounds like cm needs a better stable code

I get the force closes and unresponsiveness time to time no matter what rom. Most of the time it's an app but every once in while it is a system app.

A lot of times it is poorly written apps not the rom. Run without any apps and you will see your phone runs great for a long time. Unfortunately theres no way to know if an app is written well without trying it. I wish google had a better way to control this.

I'm on and off CM. Ive been running 7.1.0. for about a week havent had a problem/FC. I have also restored app+data using TBU even though it isn't recommended Do you have this problem with any other roms.

lol, cm's code is fine...
Usually things like this are user error/app related, and if not, then most likely something wrong with your phone. Otherwise we would see a mass amount of users reporting these problems. Which we don't..
Running CM7, I've had no fc's at all, no app problems, etc when following instructions, other than in the past some of the legitimate bugs that have popped up, and been fixed.
Did you flash RC1 over a nightly or any other previous CM build?, restore apps with Ti-Backup, Over or underclocked the kernel at all, Other various things that could result in fc's? Might wana try just running with no apps like nfiniti9 said, on a fresh install, Default kernel, and then see what happens.

I used the same setup besides the radio. I'm using 2.15.00.11.19 and I found it to be really buggy as well. Right now I'm using nightly 130 and incredikernel 06192011. I found this kernel to be more stable for me.

I have same setup with aggressive undervolt script from chad. Have not had a force close or reboot yet, and I have been using RC1 since it dropped, and nightlies for weeks before that. I am using the new GB leak radio also.
Obvious, but have you done a full clean wipe/flash? Check MD5 sum?

CM7RC3
Latest Incredikernel
Never changed radio
100% stable

OMFGB nightly 7-05
chads beta 2 with usb fast charge
stock radio
800 min voltage and -25 max voltages.
nothing to complain about, stock battery lasts anywhere from 5- 13 hours depending how hard i use it

any issues i was having i think i found out the problem... i was uaing titanium to restore after a full wipe and i was restoring all my settings wbich messed the phone up again after a clean wipe... this time i got smarter and did a clean wipe but i only restored my applications instead of system settings... this seems to have fixed issues for now.

Running cyanogenmod 7.0.2.1 and I'm about to switch to 7.0.3 because I'm getting a lot of force closes lately, running the latest incredikernel as well.

1. This doesn't belong in development. Being a QUESTION, it would be much better suited to Q&A.
2. The OP is the fool that was trolling Chad's thread.
Facedown41 - I'd recommend flashing the latest nightly, its perfectly stable with a lot of new features. 7.0.3 is a bit dated.

Same here. I just started using CM for about a week or so but so far not 1 fc 100% stable and fast.

Cm7 7.1 RC1 <---- problem right there.
RC = 100% stable.
im still on 7.0.3

The solution to your problem is to run a cache cleaner. This happened to me many times before and if you run it, it clears up a lot of space in the data/data partition so your apps have room in the memory to run w/o force closing!

[Q] Installed CM7 09/20/2011 Nightly now Maps not compatible...

Hi gang....
So I did a full wipe and installed CM7 nightly 09202011 on my OG Droid and now when I go to install Maps from the market it says that it isnt compatible with my device.
I deleted data on the market apps and restarted and same issue.
Any ideas?

As have been said, nightly CM7 roms can include some bugs. Try installing previous used version, changes are not big.

Dropped back to 8/28/2011.... still an issue.
Wierd.

I might just be a retard, but there's no built-in wifi tethering in our cyanogenmod, is there?

Hmm, I have no ideas... Try to look in current area settings, it can be problem with area settings. No ideas then...

dumb question, but do you have it set default to install to your SD?, also, did you flash gapps along with the cm7 build? I'm not certain but I believe you must all ready have maps in data/system/app and the market version is only an update.!

Any ICS ROM where Chrome doesn't crash?

Is there ANY ICS ROM out there with a stable Chrome that doesn't crash or freeze in the middle of writing long texts?
I almost want to go back to HC because of this, but then I can't use Chrome and I kind of like it.

If you have tryed all ics rom's than I don't know!

I haven't. But as far as I know they all have issues with the browser. AOSP GalaxianSoup, AOKP, CM, they all have reports by people saying the browser freezes/crashes/pages stop loading.

Delete pls

Yeah, maybe. I have to admit, I kept flashing new nightlies without ever wiping or doing a factory reset so I might try this when I get home. Thanks!

I try many ICS roms(>10), none of them make chrome work properly.
But I found one today, the newest cm10 preview 20120723. Chrome work perfectly on my 7310 now.:laugh: Not a ICS rom though

Even better
Thanks! Wiping everything and reinstalling didn't help so I'm gonna try this one. Anything wrong with that ROM, except the camera not working, I assume?

The best rom I have ever tasted, but you need to back up your favorite apps before installing the new rom, because lots of app are not ready for JB in the market, not allowed to install, including chrome

AOSP GalaxianSoup fine with me

[Q] Need help going from cm9 nightly to cm9 stable

Im running a cm9 nightly.
When i saw a stable version was available, i downloaded it and attempted to flash
It got the attached pic when i attempted.
Is there any way to do it via cell phone? I do not have a computer, so this is the only option.
It should be noted i only want to move to the stable version because my GPS does not work with this nightly, so if there is a fix for that, it will be good as well.
Thanks.

From your picture it looks like you downloaded a ROM for the wrong phone. The error youre getting is the updater script trying to verify what phone its being installed to. The error is referencing galaxys and i9000 when the captivate is an sgh-i897. On cm's site its also labeled as captivatemtd in the download list.
Verify that the ROM you have downloaded is specifically for the captivate and/or download the one for the captivate and try again.

Okay, so I think there is a bigger issue here. I have installed cm7 (7.2, stable), cm9, and cm10, and the GPS does not work on any of them. What is the deal?

Depending on the modem you have installed it could be causing your problems. I was messing with modems one day and flashed one that gave me great signal but when I went to use my GPS I couldn't get it to lock onto a single sat.
http://soggycashew.weebly.com/cm7miui--ics-modems.html
That will take you to a rather extensive list of available modems. Use the ones that are located directly at that link. There are other options but they will not install on cm7 and up.
I personally use the ugkg3 and it works great
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA

I have only ever used CM, and haven't installed anything else, so I guess it is a stock modem (not even entirely sure what a modem is). The thing is, my GPS used to work on cm7, but once I put on the cm9 nightly, it stopped. I bent the antenna out a bit to make sure it was making contact with the battery cover (saw that on the internet), and when I turned it back on, it caught its location once, but wouldn't do it again. I guess I'll have to make a desperate thread about my GPS not.working. thanks for the help though!

I highly recommend the GPS fix flashable mod. I never had working GPS without it. An xda search will lead you there.

Looking for a good stable custom rom. Any suggestions?

Hi,
I'm done with testing unstable roms and looking for a stable one.
The last rom was or actually is CM10 but, I don't know why, it's getting more bugs from one day to another. And that sucks really.
I reinstalled it several times, clear all datas ... but no hope.
Some roms has "profiles" I think that is a nice option,
so I can switch it at work or in the evening at home.
That "profile" should be in the rom I'm looking for.
Maybe a better calender then this one in the CM10.
That from the SGS III is a nice one but I couldn't find anything like this until today.
A nice clean calendar app and not these small date boxes hard to see more then 2.3 letters.
Everything else has no priority.
The only priority is a "stable" rom.
Uuh, perhaps Android 4.2? Maybe the CM10 with 4.1.2 has some problems or only at my device.
I've found this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1780071
It is the Slim Rom 4.1.2 but I'm not really sure if this is the right or if this will work.
Maybe you have some suggestions for me to help me out of this ROM-jungle.

I'm using SlimBean now since about 3 months and it's great. It's stable, smooth and fast. On Antutu I get around 4500 points with 114% OC.

Thanks for reply.
I just installed SlimBean 3.1 with Gapps.
But it seems that I have no luck.
After reboot and back on the homescreen it takes not longer than 1 minute and I got the first failure message.
GMail stopped, then I tried to set up my Google account and at the end the next error.
My handy won't connect to the Play Store with WLAN and without WLAN: Error ... from server: RH-01
And again I first did a factory reset and formatted the system but no luck with that rom.
:crying:

Ok, next try is Helly Bean.

I've just emerged from 2 months ROM flashing to find something fast and stable enough. Tried slim and helly, helly seems the best out of those. I've stuck with Mackay ROM now, never really get any lag in games and it has always been very stable and good on battery. Good luck anyhow.

Did you reflash GApps ?

No, I didn't. After 20 minutes pushing away that annoying error message that "gapps stopped" I gave up and tried the next ROM.
Now since 14 hours I've successfully run "Helly Bean 4.2" on my old SGS i9000.
Finally!!!
Thx for all your help and suggestions.

You should try C-RoM Mix 4.2.1 v4. It's very smooth and fast rom. I'm already using it and i'm very happy.

Beast rom is a stable and smooth rom. Build with linaro, had always newest source of CM and gapps.
Taming the Beast.
I'm trying to fight with the language barrier - I'm sorry for my bad English.

Hi im using fishears 4.2.1 its great, when u flashed gapps are u flashing the correct file? Because that happened to me ( the annoying messages) and it was because i installed gapps for cm10 when i needed gapps 10.1.
Fishears is the future!

I'm using Beast ROM 4.2.1 based on cm10.1. Its very stable and good.
Only downside is battery life is bad. have to charge twice a day. Seems it heats up my SGS really from near camera at back.
Any other ROM better than beast?
