Unfortunately, E-Mail has stopped

This was after flashing 1) GAPPS latest
2) E-Mail.apk from XDA Captivate Forums.

Any ideas?

I am on day three now and this ROM rocks! The ONLY minor issue I am having is that I cannot turn on Bluetooth sometimes if WiFi is off. I have not had the wifi toggling issue. Should I flash the wifi patch? I see that is being suggested more often in recent posts. I searched but did not find a clear answer on this and just wanted to check before flashing since everything else is so good.

Wow thats some detailed procedure. I would like somebody who is on MIUI or another ICS or GB Rom to try this and tell me if this works

  • Flash my Essentials first, reboot to recovery
  • wipe data, flash base + essentials + wifi patch ( sgs, and captivate users), reboot
I followed this procedure to the letter from Docs rom (VibranTurk) and it worked great. I am playing with some of the AOSP I9000 themes right now and will report.

ok got it to finally work, i believe it was the format system that helped because i tried the procedure a few times. it eventually took about 1 min. New concern is on first boot 9also rebooted system) there is no launcher or icons?

Guys any idea if the black infinitum theme in i9000 forums works with this?
EDIT: No it does not, after flashing, it showed bootanimation but keeps vibrating intermittently and does not boot up. :(

Zeam launcher, as i put it in my sgs thread, soft menu, then preferences, configure launcher they way you have want. or just swipe down to access applications.

My Flash was very pain free. I came from Dark Knight ICS, and just went into CWM, clear cache, clear dalvik, factory reset, then flashed the base and essential. I have not flashed the wi-fi fix but I see no need for the fix. My wifi works without issue so I'm not sure what the fix really fixes for me.

    4.1 Released:
    Note:
    Overall change in how i am structuring Slim. No more Base + essentials + gapps. Device ROM + SLim Common ( which inclues slim gapps among other common non compiled stuff). Just flash Device ROM version THEN Slim Common ( includes Slim Gapps). you should be set.

    3.9 Released. I will say this, read the changelog and FAQ, before posting questions. If you find ppl posting without reading, just direct them to them the changelog page, don't give them the answer, its a few lines not that hard.

    You need to d/l and flash Base, Device essentials and Slim Gapps. From next time on you just need to d/l base and device essentials as long as you don't lose Slim Gapps or i don't change it. Happy Friday Everyone!

    NOTE: Read the changelog below carefully and the FAQ before posting questions .

    All Devices:

    • Apollo ( CM9) music compiled from sources - thanks cm team
    • Updated germant translations for DeskClock - thanks Basian Mile
    • Reduce processing in WebCore thread while scrolling and zooming based on this
    • External Webkit changes based on this, this and this.
    • Hide storage option in camera for devices that don't have external storage based on this
    • Don't try to create an ad-hoc network when no wireless network is available based on this
    • SlimPapers.apk with a couple of wallpapers, nothing fancy. Will put it in OTA app for those who want to use it. - thanks jeffyca at rootz for slimlogo wallpaper
      trans.gif
    • CM9 Quiet Hours
    • New boot animation - thanks jeffyca at rootz
    • Basic gapps included in base is pulled and made a separate flashable zip, reason is two fold,
      • make google happy as they prefer this route and
      • they don't change often, so why bloat the base unnecessarily.
    • Whatever was in UpdateMe ( GenieWidget etc etc), Apps, Stays there,
    • Make sure to flash slim_gapps along with base and essentials to get working multi dpi playstore, gmail, talk, video chat, email and exchange. If you flash another gapps, you are on your own, don't complain apps are not compatible if you are not on slim gapps. This is the way moving forward, you can cry about if you want
