Not boot loader related
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xijar:
I see. So I assume that those features just don't work in neo-15. I realize its a leaked test build and have no right to complain on that note. Also, I seem to get random hot reboots on every release since 1.7.8. Has anyone else noticed it? At first I thought it was my kernel but after a couple days of running vanilla miui I still experienced the problem. Obviously not a deal breaker as I still run the latest release.

Edit: these hot reboots seem to happen most frequently when using the music app. Typically when opening the app or started a song that was previously paused. It has happened once in messaging.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpinks:
I am getting force closes and hot reboots. I use Mort Player for audiobooks alot and it does happen then too. Cant say music player or Mort is cause as I have seen it do it without being running. Having wierdness on bluetooth also as it looses what its connected to and then seems to start searching for new bluetooth connections and doesnt stop til I restart the phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xijar:
I see. I rarely use my Bluetooth so I can't say I have experienced issues there but I have started to notice it hot rebooting in my pocket when the phone is not doing anything.

Does MIUI make your touchscreen more hesitant to react for anyone else? It sometimes doesnt work properly for me. And they keyboards don't vibrate even though I set it to vibrate. And my backlight keys at the bottom shutoff after a second of making a screen selection and I have to wait for the lights to turn back on before they react to anything I do.

Yes I flashed back to stock before I flashed MIUI. I honestly think it'd be amazing if none of those things would happen... :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iMsoLucky0:
Hi all,

I just installed this after using Paragon forever. Am I right that there is no button that lets you access all applications like there are in other roms? Or am I just not finding it? This feels much more like an iPhone the way the screens are set up, is that correct?

Also, it keeps disabling my network to where I have to load the browser first before using the network in any app. Is there a setting to make this not happen?

One last thing, I just installed the newest version of the rom and didn't flash any kernels or anything. Is it recommended I flash any kernels, or is just installing the ROM good?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prototype159:
Yes, there is no app drawer. All apps are on the launcher.

Currently there is an issue with the latest release where when you reboot the data turns off, hopefully it will get fixed on the next release.

I would recommended you flash the 1.8.5 version since there are fewer issues with that one.

No you do not need to flash a kernel (since one is included). But if you want to oc/uv, voodoo color, etc, then you can flash another kernel if you want (links are in the first post of the rom page).

One more question though. When I connect my phone to my computer it shows up as "captivate" in the device manager but it isn't installed properly. I try to update with the correct USB drivers that used to work but it fails. Any ideas?

I'm trying to flash back to stock and running into some issues. I can get into recovery and flash a .zip from there but I don't think I have been able to find the correct .zip stock firmware. Can anyone help me with that?

I think if I can either get odin to recognize it or find the right .zip file I should be fine.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Nexus s drivers should not effect flashing stock. The samsung drivers should handle. Same drivers always used with captivate. Odin should see phone in download mode if samsung drivers are installed

Do not flash any zip to go back to stock. It will not work

I have a problem with dialer tones. I'm talking the dial tones you use to enter your credit card number or voicemail password over the phone... My problem is it's wrong, like it isn't sending the right tones out. I can't access webinars, my voicemail, etc. What can I do to fix this? I'm running 1.8.12. I haven't changed the kernel or modem-everything's "stock". Thanks in advance for the help.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TCGUK:
I was getting FC's all over the place on everything about a day after flashing. What worked wonders for me was running Fix Permissions in ROM Manager (you can also get to it in clockworkmod recovery). I think your screen has to stay on for it to work btw.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashman2002:
The only time I have had that happen is if I was on speaker or bluetooth. Are you using the handset and it still does that?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TCGUK:
Yes and with speaker. I haven't dialed out while on bluetooth before. I also want to follow up by saying I decided to flash another kernel and see if that helped. I flashed the Glitch V11 kernel, repaired permissions right after in Recovery, and to my surprise it seems to have fixed it. I had repaired my permissions before but it didn't seem to help. I'm at a loss but at least it's fixed. I wish I could be of more help to the next guy with this problem-able to identify the culprit-but I'm no dev. Thanks for the reply flashman2002.

question about talon kernel with miui

Hi,

I just flashed talonMTD kernel for miui captivate.

but i ran into a problem.

whenever i try to undervolt with either setcpu or pimp my cpu,

the phone wouldn't wake up after the screen goes off..

any thoughts about this :(?

maybe it's already undervolted, and i'm undervolting too much by adding additional undervolt :(?

thx in advance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
1. Too much UV!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dskim0506:
really?

really :(?

but then on the TalonMTD thread, many people there are saying that they are undervolting -100 for every frequency from 1000MHz and down,

and it seems they're having no problem with it.

wondering what am i doing different?

did they like remove undervolting setting that were already set and then applied their own undervolting value, i suppose?

Not every phone is the same physically
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashman2002:
Sometimes that does cause a problem. Reset your values all to stock. Reflash the kernel and try again. Remember, every phone handles OC/UV differently. The kernel can certainly play a role in having issues.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dskim0506:
every phone handles OC/UV differnetly... even when you're dealing with only among captivates (every single "captivate" handles OC/UV differently)? cuz the thread i saw was in captivate dev category..

I have a question that I hope hasn't been asked already:

How do I get the phone icon on Launcher Pro to open up the dialer in MIUI 1.8.12?

I've long pressed the phone icon (next to the contacts button)>Change Shortcut>Activities>Dialer> and then tried numerous different options under there.

It's kind of frustrating because I usually use the phone icon to open the dialer, now the only way I can open the dialer directly is from the lock screen or through the contacts button.

Call Waiting

Hi all,

When someone used to call me when I am already in call (call waiting) and I plan to attend the new call, in other ROMs I used to connect several options. Like whether the previous call is to be put on hold or should it be ended? But MIUI by default puts on hold, and I don't want that. Is there a way to end the previous call and proceed to the new call? Is it already there where I just need to turn on an option or is it yet to be included in the MIUI ROM??

Speaker problem

Hi all, I just recently updated my MIUI to 1.9.9 version yesterday.

Hm so the mystery gets even deeper :P My only other thought is that your notification volume was considerably higher than your media. This could conceivably cause a really loud notification sound and then maybe a slight bit of lag bringing the phone back down to your set media volume level. Other than that I honestly have no idea.
