Ok give me a few... will report back shortly thanks!

Flashed to RC2 and same thing, emmc folder empty, external_sd shows placeholder... let me know if you want me to try something else.

Thanks!!

Mount phone to pc, do two folders show up?
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
if i wanted to try the galnet version from the I9000 forums, can i just start at step 6 in the op, or would i have to swap some files around?:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] TechNut*:
Just tried that and it only brings up the main storage.
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
you would need to switch out the 3 lib files and kernel. really simple.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
yes I am running it you need to swap out some sensors and flask captivate kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Do you have another device you can test your ext sd in? For some reason your phone is just not recognizing it
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
i only had this problem once a few releases ago. what i did and i think i was really lucky or whatever but what i did was mount my phone to pc (only sd was showing, no ext sd) so i unmounted, unplugged usb, plugged back in, mounted and repeated 3 or 4 times and it finally worked. after that both sd's mounted perfectly everytime.

Go to OP and download kernel cleaning script.

Go to OP and look for Platypus then go to the last page in the Platypus thread and look for Neo-17 R7 and download.

Boot into recovery

Flash script then kernel

I'd just like to suggest the latest stock kernels with these MIUI roms. For me, every custom kernel gave me one problem or another, whether it was lag, haptic keys not working from faulty LED notifications, or some other unforseen trouble. I have been using a custom kernel since the first MIUI rom I tried months ago, and I finally got tired of flashing from one to another to fix an issue.

This last MIUI build is great, and I decided to leave it alone. So far, I'm getting great responsiveness, no lag, no reboots, no haptic key problems, and a great experience with the stock kernel.

For anyone else tired of messing with these kernels, give the stock kernel a try for a few days. I am getting much better battery life as well (around 17 hours yesterday with music playing literally 5 hours straight and texts throughout the day).

Whenever I reboot my phone I get the following error:

Any idea how to fix this?
[Captivate Android Development] Unknownman:
It's caused by the HTC default keyboard right now. Don't use the crappy HTC keyboard that is enabled by default. Signup for Swype and use that.

I have a question... anyone know if there are any kernels that support the phone call recording feature for the captivate?
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
HTC Keyboard IME is the most matching keyboard to MIUI GUI.

That's why OP included it in the MIUI ROM here...

Install other keyboards and use them instead of HTC IME. Problem solved.

However, I am not using it as I have Smart Keyboard Pro here which can be themed to HTC as well. :pAnd, Smart Keyboard Pro works better for my fingers.
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
Not sure why you would want it. You lose HSUPA. You won't gain voice quality since the kernel and rom are not based on at&t.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
I see.

I don't know it doesn't support MIUI/CM7 based ROMs. :(

Thanks for telling it.
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
wow... not sure if this a fluke or not but I've been switching modems tonight....and installed BUJS1 which always performed decent with Froyo and GB and gave me approx. 3.5mbps on the DL.

I just switched to it on MIUI to try it and got the fastest speeds I ever got. 4.6 - 4.8mbps on DL

I'll keep this one for a few days and test out the voice and battery on MIUI.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Oh I hope 8.26 is better than 8.19!
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
awesome. I'll give it a try. I just hope battery life is good, too.

i though 19 was pretty damn good.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Just flashed 1.8.29 from master clear JF6, time for a Sunday test spin.
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
Can you post link to js1 shoman? I cant seem to find it. Would like to try it:-)
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
Battery has been just as good at idle.... in 5hrs while sleeping I lost 1%.

I did notice that the 4.5mbps+ speeds were when with signal -90db and better.

The modem dance is required since its not an 850 enabled modem so its hard to tell with MIUI since we can't see what we are on. But I do have a spot that only 850 works and used that spot to flash it. I haven't tested sound yet but this modem did give me the best sound quality on GB roms.

Also this is the first time I have ever seen speeds greater than 3.7mbps.

I've attached the modem.....
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
Awesome:-) thanks dude!
[Captivate Android Development] redkenji:
So this is something weird that I noticed, before I updated on Friday I was running 1.8.5, (I read about all the bugs in the 2 weeks following and skipped those updates) and now on 1.8.26 whenever I try to call my voicemail instead of going to my voicemail it tries to call my phone, as in it rings about 5 times as if I was calling someone else and then just cuts off. Any ideas on this one? It's driving me nuts that I cant hear this message someone left me and since its MIUI the notification wont go away until I actually check my voicemail.

So can anyone tell me why when i flashed radio-cm-7-Captivate-KP1-signed from link #1 in the op then when i check the baseband version it says I9088ZNKP1? I thought this was a captivate modem not a GalaxyS modem...?
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
i9088 is another Captivate just like we have Rogers Captivate(i896) for Canada. AT&T Captivate(i897) is from US.
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
Cause that's what the modem comes from. i9088 is the chinese version of the cappy.

What's your setup(kernel, uv, neo scripts, GB bootloaders, ect.)? Did 1% loss over 5 hours happen before you tried this modem?

miui 1.8.26 Gmail

Hi, I just updated to 1.8.26 and I found out there is a problem on the Gmail app.

It only sound notification once for email, even I uncheck the 'Notify once' in the setting.

Also, if you goto Setting -> Programs -> Gmail Settings, it will FC when click on Labels to notify. Dont know if it is because I have two gmail account?

work around is to go in to the gmail app then setting.

I would suggest wiping Dalvic cache and cache then if that doesn't help run the miui backup app just in case, then go to cwm recovery-mounts and storage-format system-format cache then reboot. After reboot you can restore your system settings from the backup app. :-)

Try factory reset the phone and reflash MIUI again?

Or flash back to STOCK and reflash MIUI if the problem still persist.

Hey awesome theme! The customizability of this rom and that theme is amazing! I love the theme but wasn't too thrilled with the font and I was able to revert JUST the font to the stock theme font! Amazing. I'm also loving the miui music player. I'm not huge on the music but I love that I can see lyrics while I'm playing a song. I'm not used to that with any other music player. I'm used to using winamp.

Great work everyone involved.

It's not a new modem. It's an old modem from the i9088 which is the Chinese version of the captivate. Nothing special about it IMO.

[Captivate Android Development] tkjeeper:
Lol, now that sounds like something I would say! I cane from cm7 to miui just a few days ago. I flashed it from cm7 with ROM manager. Downloaded it with ROM manager and flashed away all through that app. Although the first time I had a bad flash and had to do it again. Don't forget to wipe both caches and dalvik. You have to "check" the bottom two options in rom manager. After that, you're good to go. You have to be ready to explore, it's different than cm7, but just as fast, and fun to explore. Is that what you were looking for?

Then go for it, I didn't flash to stock. One thing I was surprised about was that you lose rom manager with miui. It's completely different. It's a bigger change from cm7 to miui than a Samsung rom to cm7, imho.

[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
Tethering has been working on Miui for a while now and it's really reliable, now the GPS...thats another story with any ROM even the stock ROM that came with the phone...LOL, I never use the gps on my phone, it's a battery killer and it's not accurate anyway...I deleted google maps from my phone too, I went out and bought a Garmin for my car...works like a charm everytime and it's reliable. Got it from walmart for 69.00.

i think the GPS reliability issue is more geographic-based. I can't say that my GPS is perfect but i dont have as many problems with it (on MIUI) as others are saying.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I havent been discussing GPS, but driving directions are not the only reason GPS is needed. Running, places app, etc are a couple off the top of my head and some of us didnt know the GPS didnt work until after we purchased it.

Froyo custom ROM's made my GPS solid frankly for all activities and GB based ROM's have made it less than usable again. I still have hopes that the developers who fixed GPS on Froyo can with GB as well. It sucks, but not enough reason for me to downgrade from MIUI.

The same old discussion does get old though......

i dunno about att vm cause i'm using google voice as my vm since i got my android phone.. never had a vm issue so far.. and gv offers visual vm for free, also free text msg with google voice number and can use that number as my second phone number as well!! think this is cool! ;)

Alright, I'm on the latest MIUI 8/26, but I can't for the life of me get my phone to recognize external sd. I know my sd card is not corrupt because it works in my tablet, and also I have tried other sd cards.

I tried the q/a suggestion in the post - made a folder named external_sd card and rebooted. Nothing. Tried rescanning in MIUI gallery. Nothing.

Any ideas guys?
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
you need to make external_sd folder under sdcard folder. double check it.

/sdcard/external_sd

Or it can be a bootloader problem. you need to use captivate bootloaders..
[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
LOL and the guys at the AT&T store that sold me the captivate told me this...lol, he said that GPS are put on cell phones just as a marketing stratagy but they are not that reliable as a dedicated GPS and more than likely never will be, because merging the two tecnologies properly is not really a good idea. So I never use google maps or the GPS feature...LOL. Whenever I did try to use it I would end up using my Garmin anyways because it's faster then a cellphone GPS to say the least...lol
[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
it's not that the GPS isn't used for something like other apps on the phone but, once you use a dedicated GPS unit like a tom tom or Garmin for (NAVIGATION) purposes no cell phone compares that all. So don't buy a cellphone for the GPS capabilities navigation capabilities because you will be diappointed that goes for the iphone as well because I have both, and GPS for NAVIGATION purposes are horrible.
[Captivate Android Development] ri3tn:
Yeah I did that, and still no go.

But I just fixed it and I'll list out my steps.

1. Make external_sd folder in /sdcard

2. Reboot

3. Check gallery if it worked and rescan (this part didn't work for me)

4. Plug in the phone to your computer and turn on mass storage - it should detect your external sd (this part was strange.. it somehow suddenly worked)

5. Unmount mass storage and voila! Should work now

Smartphones can be weird sometimes.
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
Nice!
[Captivate Android Development] ri3tn:
Actually scratch that still have a problem. Randomly, my phone would report in the notification area that "sd card has been removed". And then it won't detect my external sd anymore.
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
Do you think you're on captivate bootloaders now?
[Captivate Android Development] djoanes:
Has anyone else had duplicated icons on their desktop (specifically within folders)?
[Captivate Android Development] ri3tn:
Yes I'm on captivate bootloaders. Does it have to be gingerbread bootloaders or is eclair/froyo okay?
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
It should work with any captivate bootloaders..

if you have time try this and flash bootloaders again. won't wipe anything tho.
