Anyone have any suggestions? While trying to watch video on youtube, it stops and displays "There is a problem while playing... Touch to retry." randomly.

I tried all other suggestions found on the web including trying different modems and kernels to no avail. I also tried reflashing, clearing cache, resetting, reinstalling youtube, deleting youtube data and cache....

I'm currently running..

also ran kc1... Neo7 and 10.

Really I hope I didn't miss the "answer" thread as I thought I thoroughly sifted through groups.
[Captivate Android Development] pewpewbangbang:
i think its just a problem with youtube. I get it sometimes too but very rare
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Just to remind everyone. There will be a new thread created for the stable version.

This thread will become the development thread (for the experimental builds).

So there will be two new versions today, one stable and one experimental.

Which will you download? ;)

Look below...
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Could be from the rom since youtube uses a different codec then normal , but if you re the only one experiencing it then perhaps it's from youtube or you just messed around something.
[Captivate Android Development] jesus_c:
experimental ONLY ))))

MIUI 1.7.8 Changelog

via miuiandroid.com
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Ok, there might be a change of plans.

Looking at the download page on MIUI, there are only 4 devices (which ours is not one of them) that have a link for the stable version. And all of the rest only have a link for the development version...
[Captivate Android Development] stewi21:
there now is 5, so i think we might be in luck (:
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I'm guessing you are looking at miuiandroid.com?

I'm talking about miui.com (the official website).
[Captivate Android Development] stewi21:
yeah i was, aw damn.

off topic, any fix for the terrible battery life on the horizon?
[Captivate Android Development] jesus_c:
I don't think so
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
The poor battery life is a CM7 bug. The issue is that the radio is causing the phone to stay awake instead of going into deep sleep mode. There will be no fix until Samsung releases their source code.
[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
Use Platypus and turn off data when not needed..this is what I do and im gettng about 18hrs and still at 15% battery. Whenever Im in poor signal area I turn off data because whatever I have scheduled to update automatically will not stop trying until it updates i.e facebook, weather widgets etc. but it drains your battery. When I'm in a good signal area I turn on data to get my updates and turn it off once updated, for me there is no need to have it running in the background all the time.
[Captivate Android Development] stewi21:
im on platypus too, i only turn data when i need it, i dont get fb notifications etc, and i get about 12 hours with about 3 hours of gaming or music.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
1.7.8 will be up soon.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
1.7.8 uploaded!
[Captivate Android Development] readitodie:
Is this full wipe?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
No, just format system & cache (just to be safe). All apps and settings will remain intact.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
No analog flip clock
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
They stated that they removed the new widgets because of some bugs. It's included in the rom, but you can't add them.

Thanks for 1.7.8 flashing now, just read galnet miui and it is there for captivate also, is it the same or what is the difference, read through changelogs and it says vast battery improvements.

I don't know much about it, if it's a competitor sorry for posting about it here
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
Hey proto,

For these builds is the best route to format system, format cache, wipe cache and dalvik, flash, restore factory?
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
Hey proto,

For these builds is the best route to format system, format cache, wipe cache and dalvik, flash, restore factory? Do we ever need to reinstall clockwork o

r is that only if we use odin?
[Captivate Android Development] Sykoknot:
Did they remove the music control on variable lockscreens for now as well?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
If you are coming from a previous version, then you just need to format system and cache.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Variable lockscreen?

The music control is only avaible on the stock lock screen (double click the time). The new lockscreens need to be updated to support the music control.
[Captivate Android Development] ToX93:
they need to update the dark theme
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
They are different.

Whatever he has changed in the i9000 version is the same in his Captivate version.
[Captivate Android Development] Sykoknot:
From MIUI Android 1.7.8 Changelog:

Anywhoo, Im displeased with the theme manager update as well, icons are no longer in a folder under data/system/theme, but is now rather a compressed file of some sort. Sad :(

(P.S. Sorry I sound like Im whining lol I am still forever happy that so many people come together to make this ROM possible :) )
[Captivate Android Development] MadeInMex4usa:
Miuiandroid app was removed this time ?? :/
[Captivate Android Development] MadeInMex4usa:
What is this old mtz format thing?? It appears when applying a theme?

What is the new format it what's up with that?
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
not sure about formats but theme manager will convert your old mtz file to new format.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
It was removed by miui android themselves.
[Captivate Android Development] Sykoknot:
They created a new system for the theme manager that greatly increases the speed of applying themes. Unless they need to be converted of course :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] MadeInMex4usa:
Thanks guys
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
I'm on 1.6.17, I just came back from a 3 week trip. To update, just format system, cache, and data?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Just system and cache. Formatting data will remove your apps/settings.
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
when would we wipe cache and dalvik, and restore to factory?
[Captivate Android Development] mirrored:
I understand turning off data to save battery, but won't turning off sync also stop any app from updating?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I have used both, galnet and this version. there its very little difference outside of the custom kernel used in galnet version. Performance is the same imo, couple different apps included in galnet version.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
What kernel is working good for you?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Doing a factory reset will wipe all of your apps and settings.

There are 3 options on how to upgrade from a previous version (I've done all three without any issues):

1. Format system and cache. Flash zip.

2. Format cache and wipe dalvik cache. Flash zip.

3. Flash zip without formatting/wiping.

Formatting system and cache is what we've been doing since the early betas, hence why it's the popular option among the 3.
[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
Sure it does but when you enable data again its all updated, the point being that there is no need to have data enabled 24/7 because it just drains your battery also turn off the battery monitor as well, thats a big battery drain as well. I unplugged my phone this morning at 7:30am it's now 12noon and i have 97% battery left. I have turned on data 3 times to get my updates and turned it back off again.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I always like platypus more than glitch but both are fine.

The kernels included in galnet versions are built on either glitch or platypus with a custom recovery and some minor tweaks

Currently running the slightly tweaked neo 10 released by zach earlier today
[Captivate Android Development] mirrored:
So essentially leave sync always unchecked and when you want to "sync" just enable data, correct?
[Captivate Android Development] xThe Enforcer:
Did anyone get the new 'dark' theme working? Keeps failing when I try to convert.
[Captivate Android Development] MadeInMex4usa:
I'm loving it!
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
Is the Dark Theme still having rotation issues?
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
I have not, fails here too. Try Dark White
[Captivate Android Development] Boobie Watcher:
so is this the new stable version?
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
No... It's the new development build. *points to thread title* :rolleyes:

No, http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15457453&postcount=4197

No worries, it was easier to copy a link than to try to explain Proto's words
[Captivate Android Development] Boobie Watcher:
i thought that new digital clock was in the new release??
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Not sure what the issue is with the dark theme.

Download it from the online section and it will work.

the ever lasting signal polling problem is it fixed(sudden emergency calls only)?? and how is the battery now?
[Captivate Android Development] roidsmith:
I tested CM7 out for awhile and it was fine but missed the look of miui.

I had the sd problem with this version, but not 1.6.24; however, "external_sd" fixed it..tippie.

Now I await tthat clock widget....
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Polling: probably not

Battery: probably still the same
[Captivate Android Development] rwells813:
Still having problems with my updater, system saying its not installed. I've tried a few things. No dice. Any ideas other than wiping data.
[Captivate Android Development] roidsmith:
I must be lucky. I haven't experienced any charging bug that I can think of on any gingerbread rom.

I download applications every now and then, listen to music, youtube, and am constantly on xda looking for some cool things. Are peoe really doing more than that lol?

hey guys

ive ben having this problem where once i mount my sd card [connect my phone with my pc .. ] and then when i turn off usb storage , nothing happens ... i still get a notification to click to turn off usb storage , and when i click it again , same thing happens

i can only use my phone like 1-2 mins after tht ... after tht i can use my phone normally
[Captivate Android Development] stevrodriguez:
so, where the music control at?
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
Are you looking for this? if so, double click(touch??) your lock scrren slider and you'll see it.
[Captivate Android Development] stevrodriguez:
no i mean for the new lockscreens
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
- Music control support for new lockscreens (has to be updated by the theme makers)

Which they are currently not. Might be a few days/weeks/months..
[Captivate Android Development] rwells813:
Is spectrogram visual out? Is on my side. Kinda miss that on the widget

Edit: started working after couple reboots. An noticed its at the top now
[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
Im not sure you guys might be doing to get bad battery life but this is what im doing:

Turn off battery monitor...it just burns more battery not to mention you can pretty much figure out your battery usage on your own.

Use the latest Platypus 10 neo along with pimp my cpu using the following settings

1600mhz...leave alone

1500mhz...leave alone

1440mhz set to -75v

1400mhz set to-75v

1300mhz set to -75v

1200mhz set to -75v

1000mhz set to -75v

800 mhz set to -75v

400mhz set to -100v

200mhz set to -100v

100mhz set to -100v

you can download pimp my cpu from the market for free.

finally TURN OFF DATA if your not using it. I unplugged my phone from the cradle this morning at 7:30am it's not 6:18pm and I still have 74% battery left. I have turned data about 4 times to get a quick weather update and to see whats new in my email as well as played about 2 hrs of music and did some texting as texting does not use data also called home about a dozen times since this morning.

Oh I also set my backlight to automatic as well. Im pretty sure I won't have to charge my battery until tomorrow afternoon sometime giving me well over 24hrs of batter without a charge. It's not this ROM thats draining your battery it's how you have your phone set and how often you use it.

Just some tips hope it helps
[Captivate Android Development] chipsa964:
I was actually just about to ask about battery life. I think it was a month ago when I finally had to switch out of MIUI because the battery life was so bad. I would unplug it at 100, only have data on with push Gmail, and after about 2 hours, I'd be at 75%. I know that battery life really depends on how you use your phone, but as long as battery life is an issue that has been addressed since then, I'm willing to make a return to MIUI.
[Captivate Android Development] pewpewbangbang:
battery life is better.....not the best though

Using glitch kernel, have all speeds undervolted -100

Im at 55% with 1 hour display time. I think with Continum i used to be able to get 1 hour with about 60-70%

So battery life is pretty good.......i just like the MIUI interface and everything
[Captivate Android Development] chipsa964:
Well I used to be down to about 30% by the end of the day with pretty minimal use, and that is simply unacceptable battery life. Hopefully it is much better than that now.
[Captivate Android Development] pewpewbangbang:
should be much better than what u had before......i only just came back a few days ago.

It was bad before because the original Cyanogenmod was bad

It still eats up a bit more than usual during standby but otherwise is stable/usable
[Captivate Android Development] chipsa964:
All right, I'm going to give it a shot. I'm coming from Apex though, so I think I need to go back to stock eclair/froyo first
[Captivate Android Development] trialsrider1:
The biggest thing I have seen on battery drain is, one HSDPA/3G network and rogue apps constantly syncing or trying to sync/update. Switch to 2g networks which is plenty of data speed for most anything but downloads, although you do lose the ability to use data while on a call or, leave HSDPA/3G on and turn off data while not in use. Also check background services to see if anything is running that shouldn't be running.
[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
You won't regret it, the battery life for me is the best i had. Now I do have to admit that i did get the same battery life from continuum with the same settings on a different kernel, again the biggest drain on a battery is the data. Just turn it on to get some quick updates and turn it back off again and you will be fine. Bluetooth despite popular belief does not drain your batter as much as data does. For me wifi is much more faster then using data is anyway.

Does anyone know how to convert modems to be able to use them on miui?
[Captivate Android Development] pewpewbangbang:
Theres a list of modems in the links in the first post

Unless ur asking to use on not on there then no clue
[Captivate Android Development] skrallbro:
Which modem was the last version (1.7.1) using? I seemed to have great results with that modem, and I noticed after installing 1.7.8 that I am now back to JK4.
[Captivate Android Development] trialsrider1:
I know that, I have them all on my sd card, I ask because there is one that has not been converted yet that I have a link of that I would like converted to try in my area.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Try opening the zip of a modem that works. Delete the modem, then place the one you want inside of the zip. This used to work, not sure if the change in cm7 a while back would prevent it
[Captivate Android Development] trialsrider1:
Alright, didn't you could do that in the first place, i'll give it a shot
[Captivate Android Development] trialsrider1:
Hmm, something interesting is going on all of a sudden, my computer doesn't recognize that my phone is plugged in. It's charging but acting just like a charger and not asking for a connection
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Try a different port or cord
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Also go to settings and make sure it us set to ask to connect
[Captivate Android Development] trialsrider1:
Have done both. It worked not 30 minutes ago when I transfered the update from my computer to sd card. Now it doesn't work
[Captivate Android Development] pewpewbangbang:
I believe 1.7.1 was also using JK4
[Captivate Android Development] trialsrider1:
Now im getting the connected and disconnected sounds from my pc over and over again...lol

Hi guys, I'm a new MIUI user.

I'm on 1.7.1, I was just wondering, do I have to wipe to flash the update? Or can I just flash it and all my apps/data will be fine?

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
For no calendar, go into sync and sync the google calendar. It will re-create the calendar database file. I had this happen when I tried restoring the file, it didnt work and re-sync (my blank calendar haha) got things working.

If you are asking how to update to the latest MIUI from a previous version, please read a few pages back. Or be lazy and read the first post.
[Captivate Android Development] trialsrider1:
First page has a link for installation instructions, but just wipe system and cache in CWM, if you have problems after install us the built in backup to backup apps etc, then do a full wipe
