Loving Miui, but I'm having two problems:

1. The YouTube app frequently gets errors while playing videos. It says tap to retry and I do and it works for a bit and then gets the error again.

2. There appears to be no mkv playback in mVideoPlayer while it did work on Samsung-based roms. Is there a way to add that codec to MIUI?

Thanks!

Does anyone know of a way to speed up the universal search function? It literally is a challenge to search for something. It takes 1 to 2 minutes to get a result and half the time I don't get any result at all even though I spelt the name of the application or contact exactly. I did make sure that the correct toggles were switched in the search settings.

if compass does not work you need to calibrate it

how to calibrate compass:

Go to the market > download GPS Status & Toolbox > menu > tools > compass calibration

I am on KF1 baseband (running Cognition) , can I flash this directly from CWM?
[Captivate Android Development] simple man:
I flashed it from Continuum 6.1/Talondev kernel running the KF6 bootloaders, and all went well. I went into recovery selected wipedata/factory reset, wipe cache partition, goto advanced then wipe Dalvic cache, then install zip from SD card choose zip etc... etc...If your not comfortable read the OP it has links to the instructions for Flashing back to stock Eclair or Froyo. I was running Cog.- KF6 then flashed to Continuum 6.1 then flashed to MIUI all on KF6 boots, doing as I described above.

If anybody needs more volume for your loudspeaker (alarms-ringtones-notifications) this app is very cool, you can use it for headphones and Bluetooth audio also, but w/voodoo plus all I needed was loudspeaker help. It works great and you can add reverb and it really makes your tones sound good. :-)

Stuck Like Chuck

I'm really stuck here! So my phone won't recognize my external sd card and my PC won't recognize my phone so I can't flash back to stock or to any other rom. I have tried installing the USB drivers, uninstalling the USB drivers, unmounting the internal sd card etc. I have tried on multiple machines and it just won't recognize it. Just says charging but won't come up in ODIN or in my device manager. Im totally stuck. Any ideas on either how to get the phone to see the external card or the pc to see the internal card. I've never had this problem before coming to MIUI. Any help is appreciated

Thanks a lot man..just flashed it over KF1 and everything is cool...thanks again
[Captivate Android Development] simple man:
I'd make sure you are in (usb mass storage mode) goto wireless and network settings--use settings then make make sure its set to use mass storage, then I'd make sure use debugging is on. After that maybe reboot your pc, switch usb to one closest to the motherboard. (Right Click) on Odin3 one click then select (run as administrator) (WITHOUT) phone plugged in, put phone into download mode THEN plug in usb. You should get com/port then hit start. I hope this helps.

They did a better job than Samsung did I think. This Rom is SWEETEST. The theming Is way to cool, you don't have to flash them, you can mix and match parts of different themes all while the phones on without revert.zip. There are some good roms out there but this one totally takes the cake. The best part is that they update every Friday.

This happens to me with glitch, cm7 kernel, and whatever kernel comes with miui. Bugs the hell out of me. Unless i read it wrong, i believe it is a kernel issue due to conflict with Bln, of which there has been no fix yet. Neo and escapist kernel are only 2 that work for me but my phone may be retarded. I told it that once the sgs2 gets stateside, its going in the trash. May have hurt its feelings lol

Alright, I've already hard-bricked my Captivate once while trying to flash this, so I'm going to make sure of the process before I flash it on my replacement device.

Can I flash this over the stock Eclair/Froyo that'll come with the Captivate (i896 here in Canada), or should I Odin 1-click + root to 2.3.3, and flash this over that?
[Captivate Android Development] nuwan32:
you need to go to gingerbread first then miui thats why u bricked. u need i9000 bootloaders, so follow the instructions and flash cm7 first then miui.
[Captivate Android Development] hbk19:
So, according to the instructions for CM7 nightly builds, I can flash that over a rooted Eclair/Froyo (with CWM) + Eclair/Froyo bootloaders, and then flash this over the latest CM7 Nightly? Just making sure.
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
Answers like this is why people end up with bricked phones...if you are on i9000 bootloaders you have to flash back to stock 2.2 first with one click odin then flash MIUI from clockwork. The only part of your post that was correct was "so follow the instructions" lol If you are already on stock 2.2 then just install clockwork recovery and flash away.

[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Put it into download mode, open odin before connecting usb. Give it a moment then it should show in odin.

If this doesn't work

Open Odin>Remove battery>attach phone to usb>install batt>go into download. If odin doesn't see it now, unplug it wait 5 sec then reconnect.

Yes I already tried this multiple times. The problem is my PC isn't recognizing the USB device of the phone, therefore Odin won't recognize it

just flash miui over original rom via CWM. think it will work. Make sure you are not using i9000 bootloaders.

Thanks, but the problem is I had Maps backed up with Titanium Backup, but when I restore it, it's not there. I also can't find in in the market.

hey, guys

first time trying out MIUI, have couple of questions

1.dose the default kernel support voodoo sound?

2. what about OC on default kernel?

thanks in advance
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
That is COMPLETELY untrue! If this person listened to you on more than 1 point, the phone would be bricked. If you have GB i9000 boot loaders=BRICK.

#1 The BEST way is to flash from Stock JF6(2.1). Make sure you have 3 button. Put CWM and the Miui ROM onto your SD, reboot recovery, flash CWM, reboot, format data/system/cache, reboot recovery, then install the ROM. DONE

[Captivate Android Development] jivy26:
I'm just shooting from the hip doing what steps I would go through...do you have a different cable to try? Try plugging it into a different USB port on the PC. And when you say still not recognized windows isn't even installing the drivers for the phone when you put it in downloading?
[Captivate Android Development] mirrored:
No Windows itself is not installing the drivers. When I right click the phone, named unknown device,in device manager and try to update drivers by clicking on the folder that Android sdk downloaded the Google usb drivers to, windows says the best drivers are already installed.

I do not have another cable. Where do you recommend buying one?
[Captivate Android Development] mirrored:
Really all the signs point to something else besides the cable because Windows sees the phone fine when the usb is mounted. The problem only occurs in download mode.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
To allow MIUI/CM7 works with ADB and AIO Captivate Toolbox again, please download Nexus S Driver to do so.

Nexus S Driver Download Links:

http://www.fileserve.com/file/5bgRBX5

http://hotfile.com/dl/92897696/7ae5290/drivers.rar.html

http://mazodude.comze.com/

Follow this tutorial,

1.) Put your Captivate into Debugging Mode. Connect it to your PC. Download the Nexus S Driver from the links I provided and extract the files inside into a folder.

2.) Go to Device Manager, but, how? Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management >Device Manager.

3.) There should be a "Captivate with a !" in the Device Manager because the PC can't recognize it completely.

4.) Right click on the "Captivate with a !". There's some options there, select "Update driver software...".

5.) Then, you'll see 2 options. Select "Browse my computer for driver software". OK. Now, find the folder that have Nexus S Driver.

6.) Continue with the installation(by clicking next, ok, etc, I assume you know these). After passing through those things, you'll have your Captivate Driver fully installed.

7.) Your ABD Commands and AIO Captivate Toolbox are working now with your Captivate.

[Captivate Android Development] west-siiiyyde:
Just curious, has anyone else noticed that 7.22.11 release is noticeably much worse on battery life than 7.15.11? I was running 7.15.11 with kernel du jour and having semi reasonable battery life by using uv/uc. The same setup and kernel on 7.22.11 had maybe half of the battery life as 7.15.11 on my phone. Already did battery stats wipe procedure to calibrate and reflashed to default miui kernel, with no improvement. I didn't notice anyone discussing this, so wondering if I am the only one having this and maybe my phone battery might just be dying :(

[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
Ok, I just have to ask...........is Odin open first, and are you getting the download screen BEFORE you plug your USB cable in?
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
1. no. Default kernel doesn't support voodoo sound but you can flash whatever kernel that supports voodoo sound. you can find them in the op.

2. no. default kernel won't let you OC/UV also. but you can switch kernel also.

[Captivate Android Development] mrgoodwords:
I was having the same problem on multiple Windows 7 machines. Luckily I was able to download via my phone other roms - I kept trying to flash other roms until my phone was in a continuous boot! Well, at that point I went back into download mode and sure enough it recognized my phone and I flashed back to stock then flashed MIUI. So everything is good now but I still don't understand why my computers wouldn't detect it. I mean, the damn thing wasn't even identified in device manager.

I had to reinstall windows at one point a few months ago and, if I remember correctly, i had to install the captivate drivers as well as the nexus s drivers in order to get download working.

so your advice is to keep flashing roms until I soft brick it and then hope that my computer then recognizes it? lol..
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
Alright. First things first. Did you flash rc2 first. You said you came from firefly so I know you aren't using gingerbread bootloaders so that's good. Flash back to stock is my suggestion and start over and make sure to follow the directions step by step and you should have no problems.

[Captivate Android Development] yungstar89:
Oh yeah. I followed instructions exactly. First time didn't pan out so I had to do it again. Flashed stock using odin, master cleared, and started again. Maybe one more time will do the trick. Also, just a heads up, but on the instructions, it's not specified whether or not you should put the cwm initial kernal on your phone's sd before starting. I had to restart the process because I forgot to and only put the MIUI files on the sd.

If you have that issue in the future you can go into mounts and storage from recovery and mount USB then you can put the file on then unmount and your good.

Ahh, jeez, I feel stupid now. Cut me some slack guys, running on 4 hours of sleep. :p

Just so I can clear everything up, though, what I was getting at was that I know most people can't get everything working properly (like auto-rotate), and if you started packaging my kernel in, I'd feel obligated to support it, which sadly I don't have time to do. :(
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
