The only thing causing me to want to swap my wife's captivate once she is up for renewal is the fact that the GPS on the original Captivate is so bad. If it werent for that I would keep her on the Captivate until it died.

anyone else experiencing glitchy installs from the market? Have had this problem since i first flashed slim about 6 updates ago. My phone will hang and bog down while the app installs and on first launch

That's normal android behavior. Downloading apps and installing kills single core devices in terms of speed

Couldn't agree more on slim and semaphore together. Congrats on the home. They are about of work but worth it

To all you guys using a non-stock kernel, what are the advantages? Why use Semaphore or Devil over stock?
ability to use different governers and schedulers as well as overclock and / or undervolt...
I have seem that problem, weird that plugging the phone on the desk cradle for a few seconds bring it back to normal or rebooting the PC while plugged

Freaking overclocking! it's fun making your phone work extra hard and killing a battery in 8 hours. lol. I had run a stable 1.508ghz awhile ago. everything is so fast when overclocked, well until you crash something and reboot. lol.
also features like fast charge(haven't played with this yet)
touchwake is awesome, as well as led blink notifications.
More free ram.
So many settings to play with.
custom kernels allow you to take so much more advantage of your phone hardware.
Fast Charge and Touchwake are in stock kernel. Just saying

lol wut?
I'm running the stock kernel for a few days, non overclocked/overvolted seems to really help battery life lol.
lol, the sarcasm module failed to load. hahah
Is it me or is this thread getting close to dying? I absolutely love Slim ICS and I can't thank Krarvind enough for all his work. I'd say slim 4.2 is a great testament to his abilities.
I am so glad to hear the Krarvind is working on Slim Jelly Bean! can't wait for JB for captivate!
Goodness, I know this already. I've been told 3 times now. I was being sarcastic when I said "lol wut?"
I forgot that sarcasm/humor sometimes doesn't work in text form.

Hrm... rebooted my phone and now I'm forever stuck on the Slim boot screen. This is the 3rd time it's happened to me and the only way to fix it is to reflash the whole ROM. Anyone have this happened to them before? I asked in the past and didn't get any answers.
It's never happened to me so far. Sorry to hear you're having this problem.
Which version of slim? Stock kernel? Does a nandroid restore fix it?
What were you doing prior to the reboot?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda app-developers app
It's happened to me on both Slim 4.1 and 4.2. I'm not using stock kernel so I'll probably get flamed for asking this. No I don't have a nandroid. Reflashing ROM isn't even working either now. Gotta format system...
I manually rebooted the phone. I wasn't doing anything.
Stopped Working?
I've been through a lot of this thread, I I want to say two things:
1. Sometimes you have to just uninstall and re-install an app in the market (after the first install). I'm not entirely sure why this works, but it seems to have a higher success rate than merely Clearing Cache on that particular app. And force-closing and re-Clearing the Cache. And wiping the /cache and Dalvik cache.
2. The Events display on the Lockscreen doesn't seem to work quite right. It shows that there is an upcoming event, but since it cuts off the description I don't really know what it is until I go to the calendar anyway. For example, at the moment I have an event with the following attributes:
Date {Tomorrow}
Time: 400p-900p
Title: Pace
Location 1000 W ()()()()
This event ends up being displayed on the Lockscreen as "Tomorrow at 4:00 pm (1000...", which is only so helpful. I would anticipate that the Tomorrow would turn into Today, which would probably allow me to see an extra three characters, but that's still problematic. Is there any way to have it be wider and/or span multiple lines?

Guys support for Slim 4.2 has dropped (no more fixes or updates). Krarvind is concentrating on JB. Obviously no ETAs but its in the works
