[Q] CyanogenMod market - Captivate General

Ok, I feel really stupid, but I cannot find the app market in my app drawer after downloading Cyanogenmod 7. I can see it in manage apps, but have searched for it and looked everywhere I can think of on the phone and it is no where to be found. Help!

You didn't flash the gapps from rom manager! Go to rom manager, download rom, GOOGLE APPS. Then you will have the market. You should read the OPs of all the CM7 captivate threads before asking more questions. Not trying to be an ass but just warning you alot of people will jump all over you for questions like this that are listed in the OP.

Agreed please read any FAQ that the rombhas before flashing. Mainly CM based roms.

All the exclamation points in the title, and we still are not closer to a Captivate build.
EDIT - my comment was made before the title was changed to say "not for captivate". Originally it did not.

And someone posted the same exact thing, with the same amount of enthusiasm, not 10 threads down.

Though it is good news that there is progress in the community, it does not look like we can expect this right away. They are still looking at an RC and it is not for the Captivate. I am not trying to be pessimistic, but I have stopped getting my hopes up. When CM for Captivate is released I will be all over it. Until then I will keep rocking Cognition.
Regardless. Nice find and I hope it moves forward quickly.
Ok folks looks like when it becomes available from them it will appear in Rom Manager.
NOTE: As of right now CyanogenMod is not available for the Samsung Captivate. Please check the wiki or the Samsung Galaxy S sub-forum for updates.
First Method (easy method)
1. Launch ROM Manager.
* Optional: Choose the first option in the app, Flash ClockworkMod Recovery to update to the latest version.
2. Select the Download ROM option from the main menu in the ROM Manager.
3. Select the CyanogenMod option, and then choose the latest version of CyanogenMod from the menu.
* Optional: When you select the latest version of CyanogenMod, check the Google Apps option.*
4. Once the ROM is finished downloading, it asks if you would like to Backup Existing ROM and Wipe Data and Cache.
5. If Superuser prompts for root permissions check to Remember and then Allow.
6. The Samsung Captivate will now reboot into recovery, wipe data and cache, and then install CyanogenMod. When it's finished installing it will reboot into CyanogenMod
So all you eager beaver read above and keep checking Rom Manager Daily for an CM Rom. But as stated will stay with Cognition now.

I edited the title of this thread and I'm going to move it to the General forum since there's no release for our phones.
It seems like they've made **some** progress on the Vibrant. I'm still really unfamiliar with how the hacking works on the Galaxy line, but is it safe to assume that if they complete CM for Vibrant, that we will be able to port to Captivate, as well?
As tweeted from @thedudesandroid http://twitpic.com/30etlg
It's being worked on, at least. Currently in alpha, apparently. "David Kohen" said in this thread that he'd start working on the Captivate port a week ago.

Discussion for new aospGBModv0.1 - AOSP 2.3.1 (Gingerbread) 12/25/2010

So what's updated on this 12/25/2010 version from the previous one?
Also, what's not working at this point?

LOL, good point.
Seriously, aosp makes an excellent job (as usual), but never announces what's new or what's still not working. Personally I'd like to know.
Where's the download link for this "Discussion for new aospGBModv0.1 - AOSP 2.3.1 (Gingerbread) 12/25/2010" rom?

I know it has links BUT they are broken... 404 - Not Found
He mentioned before the 0.1 release that he was working on the gapps so since I don't see anything changed in the .1 release I think gapps are the only new thing.
Ok for some reason when I flash included gapps nothing happens ... no Gmail no market nothing at all downloaded multiple times flashed, wiped formatted all, still nothing... even booted first before flashing
..
this is what i found that works
calls/data
txt msgs
mms send/recive
wifi
wifi tethering
all the gapps work
what doesn't work
camera
senors/lights
gps
there maybe more but that is all i found so far on 0.1
camera!?
lol, if thats all that doesnt work this may as well be my daily.
This has become my daily. I don't need GPS I can use a map if I need to and the lights not coming on save in battery. My phone has been unplugged since 8am and I am at 57%. I also tossed in one of Deca's kernels. My only concern @ this point is Gmail not working. But I can get the gist of them in the few seconds they do open for. As for the camera not working it is winter in Washington it is always dark here it seems. So you need a flash.
mmm gingerbread.
forgive me if you think I'm being an ass, but why in the world does this tread exist, and why is it in development? The AOSP gingerbread ROM thread is already a place for discussion, and it contains the actual development. I think when somebody asked earlier "where's the download link?" they were actually asking "why is this thread in development?" only in a sarcastic way. If you want to know what is different in AOSP's rom you have to READ the thread near when he updates, the answers are always there, just not from AOSP himself.
Peace and love.
Well we have a thread disscusing the cm6 nightlys and that download link doesn't even work anymore and yeah maybe people are just being lazy and don't want to read though 90 pages of replies but if there was a problem with where the these is located I'm sure a mod would move it so instead of sharing ur negativity and post something positive or thread related and let the mod's do their job. No this does work with Firerat's mod just takes some tweaks
First follow the directions for the recovery that's all the same
but inorder for it to be stable you then need to wipe/formart everything and flash the first alpha and decafuct if you wish then the fr boot zip
reboot, once booted reboot recovery and flash the old gb gapps and reboot
once that boots up reboot recovery and flash aospGBMod-v.01 zip and reflash decafuct if you wish and then the FRboot zip again then reboot
once that has booted if maket doesn't show up reboot recovery and flash the old gb gapps again and you should have the market
for some reason the new gb apps don't work with firerat's mod the market never shows up and if you download the vending app from the internet and install it just fc and never opens
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8571811/gapps-mdpi-20101020-gb-signed.zip here is a link to the old gb apps if anyone needs them

Not trying to be negative, and the answer to lazy non-readers is never another thread. BTW the nightlies thread was posted by darch, who is the maintainer of the heroc for cyanogen, and that thread is actually used to help develop the rom (this one isn't, I doubt AOSP will follow two threads for his one rom). also, the nightlies thread has 7000+ posts, so if the logic were to open a new thread at 90 pages, well, you get my point..... If this should be here than great, it just doesn't seem like it should.
yeah your probably right aosp probably won't follow two treads but maybe this thread will keep the guys trying to test for aosp closer on the other tread and all other questions can be disscused here and i don't think your an ass i think you have a point of view just like i do. But just cause you and i know what we are doing most of the time doesn't mean there aren't people on here that don't know what they are doing and if having two treads helps them and us out so be it if this tread dies so be it but only time will tell give time this tread could become just as usefully as the nightly thread but we can't tell on only the short time it's been up

Looks like the only thing that's not working is the camera.
Which unfortunately is a deal breaker for me, but oh well. I'm still amazed at how fast this rom is coming along anyway.

A simple mod alert on the first post asking a mod to move the thread to Q&A or General would work. If nothing happened, then it was meant to be.
I agree, however, that this isn't needed. Esp since it's now outdated and no ROM development is happening here.

[Q] What is purpose of Showcase AOSP, Voodoo Kernel and GAPPS?

(Disclaimer: I am new to the forum so I can't post this in the below mentioned threads because I haven't posted enough.)
Hey Ya'll I'm relatively new to the Samsung Showcase and rooted the 2.1 and installed the VOODOO for the Sound improvements! and I loved it.
Today because I can't leave well enough alone I updated to Froyo with the PnP rom.
I saw the thread '[ROM] Showcase AOSP Froyo V0.9, Voodoo AOSP kernel, and GAPPS 3/15/2011' but when I saw all the things that didn't work on it (camera, video camera, Bluetooth) I thought I'd investigate more before I did anymore!
I have a problem with doing things I don't fully understand as long as I understand the instructions.
Can some one tell me what the AOSP Froyo V0.9 Rom is (and how its better, worse different from the EB11 PnP 0.3)
About the Voodoo kernal in the above thread? and how its different than the kernal in this thread, [KERNEL] voodoo for eb11 fix release
What is the GAPPS?
I would really like the Sound improvements and I saw that its not available yet...and the lagfix isn't enough of a change for me at this time to remove the function of the camera, video camera, and bluetooth headset.
So can someone clear this up for me. I've read the entire thread of each of the above mentioned threads and they are more about bugs and for people that already know about of their function?
THanks in advance!

Google AOSP roms, it's just the base android operating system, no manufacturer additions such as touchwiz, very lean rom

So AOSP stands for Android Open Source P but, any idea why some would use this instead of the Pick N Pack Rom I'm using...and if I can use the Voodoo Kernel with it or if I have to use the AOSP ROM. I guess I'm kind of looking for the features and benefits of different ROMS.
In addition I'm also using this post to get my 10 post up so I can just post this question in the Development thread.

Different ROM's have different benefits, it's all up to the user. Like I said, google it, do some research and find out for yourself what ROM's are all about. MIUI, CyanogenMod and AOSP are all different types of custom ROM's.

Thank you I will google it...more thoroughly.....I though AOSP was more of a definition than a name of the ROM.. Thanks for the input.
Anyone have any good links? (again trying to get my Post up to 10)
Why don't you just ask whatever it is you want to ask instead of wasting peoples time with posts just to up your post count? The same people that post and answer questions in the dev forum read these. No need to wait to ask until you get your posts up.

Any way I Guess I learned that the AOSP ROM is the most basic Rom. Also Found I can flash the voodoo Kernel but it only gives lag fix at this time. so I may wait to see if the sound improvement comes...thats what I enjoy the most!
So I hope others with similar questions have found this thread helpful.
Thanks for reading

Cm7 questio

I install cm7 but the market wasn't installed. What should I do?

Google Apps is provided in a separate zip (due to licensing restrictions by Google). You can download the zip from HERE (all the way at the bottom in the "Google Apps Version" section.... you want to download the HDPI zip for CyanogenMod 7).
Flash the zip in recovery.

What is the diff in CM7?
Hello, sorry for hijacking your thread...but I really want to ask this question...
I've read the cyanogen's website...but are there any difference other than the listed features such as lock screen gestures, phone goggles....etc?
There are ROMs like Infusion, Refused...and how are they fundamentally different?
Finally...I've been sporadically checking the CM7 thread in the development section...seems like people are already having CM7 on their infuse...where did they find the zip for the flash?
Thanks in advance for answering my question =D

CM7 is based on the Android Open Source Project source code base.
The advantage of being based off of AOSP is that once an initial device bringup has been made, it is MUCH easier to track new Android versions. e.g. CM7 is at Android 2.3.5 (the latest Gingerbread). It is also much easier to modify since we have the source code for nearly everything.
Also, once device bringup is complete, CM7 doesn't have the crippled Bluetooth stack that Samsung provides.
Of course, the issue is - when device bringup is complete. We're still in the process of doing device bringup for the Infuse, so things are missing. Interestingly enough, CM7 on the Infuse now has Bluetooth functionality (Input devices, etc.) that basically covers what Samsung's stack doesn't - and the stuff Samsung's stack does (Audio) is what we're missing.

Best ROM

What is the most stable rom at the moment?

there are lots! just take a look in the development section. there are also alot of threads started with this same question that have alot of peoples reviews in this and the general section. Personally my phone plays well with stock based roms EB/ Weapon G2x/ Tsugi etc. where everything works well including the elusive GPS locks (within seconds on updated July Baseband) No FC or random Reboots. From reading throught threads ive noticed to each their own. as it seems many peoples G2x plays differently with each rom. best answer is to flash away and find the one for you.
Ill use this thread since it was already started.
I am running stock CM 7.1 right now.. I am looking to play.. BUT I would like to be able to re-install apps each time I flash.. maybe even save email accounts and SMS??
Does Titanium do this? whats best for doing this when you play with ROMs?
Or do you just suck it up and have to re-install each time??

I really hate when people ask this question; pretty much every GB ROM will be stable, it's up to you to decide which one you like.

This may sound stupid, but is the wifi not working in general as a whole an issue with the phone or it's software, if it's software, what would you suggest as being a good,stable rom for the issue above?
