On my captivate, weui with the latest semaphore kernel is very smooth.
[Captivate Android Development] deBricker:
Hey guys, I can't seem to find the MIUI Control Panel... and its behaving rather weirdly at the moment.

Current Issues:

External SD not found

Has this been fixed? If so can someone direct me to the fix?

and where can I download the MIUI control panel and extended controls??
[Captivate Android Development] metalfangs:
Here
[Captivate Android Development] deBricker:
IDK if this has been solved before but it stopped reading my external SD card. I've already cleared cache.
[Captivate Android Development] jcabia:
modem question

which modem does this rom comes with?
[Captivate Android Development] fuloplori:
ugkg3 if my memory servers me well, but u can always flash any other modems that u like.
[Captivate Android Development] mcyorian:
I don't get any notification sounds with the official Twitter for Android app. I get notification sounds with every other app (Trillian, GTalk, Whatsapp in my case). I tried the normal ones that come with MIUI, I tried custom ones, MP3s and OGGs, nothing worked. Seesmic for example works. But the official Twitter for Android vibrates, shows status bar notifications and BLN works, too - tried it with BLN enabled and disabled but no notification sound. Someone else in the IRC confirmed the bug on his device. That's the only Twitter app that supports push-notifications and it would be really annoying if that bug wouldn't get fixed soon because otherwise I really like using MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] jcabia:
And what about the kernel? Which kernel comes with this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] metalfangs:
All of your questions are answered in the first post.
[Captivate Android Development] wakeupkeo:
Still my favorite rom

I keep trying newer MIUI versions, just tried the Jellybean version CYPHER v2, but I still love this one is the most stable for me, best looking, and right options, and keep coming back to it. It goes screwy once in a while and I have to re-flash everything with a full wipe every 3-4 months, but Thank YOU!!!!

For everyone else, full stock with full wipe, flash this rom, run it, back to recovery and flash glitch kernel (best audio), and good to go!
[Captivate Android Development] jfuq20:
Idk if this has been assessed but for some odd reason my phone is using external sd for the primary and not showing my internal at all. I came back to this Rom after testing out some jb roms. Sorry in advance of this had already been answered I just needed a really quick fix of there was one.
[Captivate Android Development] mikied12:
Buggin I hate it, I do a search miui infuse and get all this miui stiff my hopes are elevated then when I read a bunch of it looking to be sure, nope it is miui seems like a great working ROM but not for infuse. :(
[Captivate Android Development] :
That's because this is the Captivate forums.
[Captivate Android Development] rdk2k:
Does anyone have the extended setting mod laying around. This is still the rom i use on this old phone but I would like to have that mod. :)
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
To anyone using a dark ui theme is ur pulldown redish?
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
do it the old way if u have the files it worked for me im running it as we speak
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
looks fine here when u put the brightness to low it goes redish
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
No. I meant on all pages. Like when you remove an app it automatically moves all the others back to fill in it's place.

Flashed from Custom Rom 2.2 -> 1.5.20

Ok, I took the plunge and went from FireFly to MIUI 1.5.20 using Method 2 in the OP.

Everything is fine, here is what happened:

* I got no Call or Network Signal.

* Booted into recovery, installed the JK4 modem. So finally I get into the Network (AT&T)

* But I am still screwed no IMEI #, the Baseband Version shows Unknown? But I can make calls *and* receive calls.

So how do I fix the IMEI (it is the generic one). Damn, I hope this is easy.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
They changed the way the efs is restored. So I'm not sure if it is working properly for us or not. Might have to go back to the old zip system, which means more steps. :\

If you are having the IMEI issue, send me a pm if you would like to test something for me.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Ya ur right. Interesting
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
What kernel are you using? The stock kernel that comes with 1.5.20 has color adjustments on it, so that might be the reason.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Mcord, is the quorra 10 working??

If not, can I get the quorra 9 from you?
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
will test out. and does anyone have calling problems? when i call people i dont get a dial tone at all, even tho the call will connect sometimes and i do have service
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I am using 9

http://www.ponack.net/zachariasm/testing/quorra_base/quorra_r9/CAPPY//MIUI/
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
I've also noticed that on 1.5.20 the music app doesn't see music on the internal SD. Doubletwist works fine tho

Edit: it worked about 15 minutes after boot nvm
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
If you are having IMEI problems, hold on. I have people testing a new version to see if it works.

If not, I will go back to the old system and upload a 1.5.20 version.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
We are going back to the old flashing system, less problems. I'm uploading a test rom now to make sure the efs problem is fixed (trying to get rid of the rc2 flash) and will upload it to the public once tested.

If you are already on 1.5.20 and don't have any IMEI problems, then you can ignore this post.
[Captivate Android Development] SkateEmerica987:
Whenever I flash it I'm not able to get any service or anything. I've been flashing back to stock 2.1 beforehand, I'm not sure what I've been doing wrong. Any help appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Read the post above yours
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Your IMEI is not being restored. I'm currently uploading a new version which will fix that issue. But you need to go back to stock and read the new instructions.
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
tiny issue report.

the AGPS turns on wifi automatically for a minute everytime i use any gps location allowed apps like internet browser, google maps, etc.. thinks it causes battery drain also.

Edit. I just simply turned off AGPS in settings > personal > my locations and it's gone.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
IMEI Issues:

New version uploaded. Flash back to stock and read the new instructions.
[Captivate Android Development] SkateEmerica987:
I followed your new instructions exactly, and everything said it installed correctly but everytime I boot it boots directly to clockworkmod recovery, I can't get it to load the rom.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
So you downloaded the new 1.5.20 version, went back to stock, and followed the new instructions?
[Captivate Android Development] SkateEmerica987:
Oh so the 1.5.20 is new as well? that must be my problem. I'll flash back to stock and try again with the new one. I thought you just changed the kernal
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
No, the issue is the files that were used on 1.5.20. So I went back to the old files in the new uploaded version. Which should fix your issue.
[Captivate Android Development] SkateEmerica987:
I just tried it again with the new files and I'm having the same problems, its still booting into recovery every time.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
What was the last step you did?
[Captivate Android Development] SkateEmerica987:
selected wipe data/factory reset and then reboot
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
You formatted before flashing the miui zip, correct?

You also flashed the kernel_CM7_initial zip as well, correct?
[Captivate Android Development] SkateEmerica987:
correct, I followed the new directions exactly and had no errors or anything, it just won't boot the rom
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
See if this works:

Download the 1.5.13 version. Go into mounts and storage, mount usb. Add the zip to your sd card. Format again and flash the 1.5.13 version.
[Captivate Android Development] loserskater:
Had the same problems. Flashing 1.5.13 still boots to recovery. Flashed 1.5.20 over 1.5.13 and still boots to recovery. About to flash RC2.

EDIT: Still boots to recovery
[Captivate Android Development] SkateEmerica987:
now its just stuck at the ATT boot screen. I give up
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Flashing back to stock to see what the issue is...
[Captivate Android Development] bekarhoo:
Same issue here..Cannot boot the ROM..throwing in the towel too!
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I think MIUI secretly hates me. My guess is the initial zip is not working properly, since 1.5.13 should work. Going to try to flash the old old way.
[Captivate Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
Works fine on Rogers Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Ok, the old old school way it is (tested it so I know it will work). I will upload the new files and change the instructions again.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Okay, the old long instructions have been added and tested....now I will sleep and hopefully not wake up to more issues. :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] n00b_wm:
I had this problem for a long time, but no one was able to answer it. It eventually worked when I flashed cm7 first and went to MIUI from there.
[Captivate Android Development] loserskater:
Finally booted this time! And imei is good. Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] SkateEmerica987:
Everything works perfect! It boots up and I finally get service. Thanks a lot man, sorry about all the hassle.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Glad the issue has been fixed for you guys.
[Captivate Android Development] bekarhoo:
Thanks for keeeping up with this. Ok, let me see I kept seeing this messages:

E:no misc partition

And the last step Wipe data/factory reset I saw this on the screen

E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 ...

But let's see...it's trying to boot first time...Ok..boot screen came up...need to sleep too..will see tomorrow if anything is broken. I was coming from stock btw, so is the kernel expecting it to be a ext4 fs?

Thanks

EDIT:

Ok, after overnight. Those messages during install did not appear to have any drastic effects. Everything that I use appears to

work. Man, but I miss the App drawer :). Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
I think I'll wait before jumping to 1.5.20 since everything is working rather well for me.
[Captivate Android Development] randomafk:
does GPS work for anyone? I can't get a GPS lock at all for some reason.
[Captivate Android Development] rsx19:

screen has been on since this morning and ive been trying to cycle it and it doesnt seem to be dying. ive been up just so i can charge it once it dies
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
works totally fine here!

try gps test app or something like that first.
[Captivate Android Development] Ostate24:
Yeah I had to use the long way yesterday....thank god I had all the files still! It installed fine that way, so something in the update zip must be causing it?
[Captivate Android Development] TechNut*:

[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I feel the latest update was a nice step forward. currently running a little test on how standby time is with my current setup

Platypus R9

clock stock 1000

uv settings

1000, -75

800, -75

600, -225

400, -75

200, -75

100, -150

Reason for the high uv at 600 is that is the screen off frequency with smartass gov. I have wifi and data on, wifi sleep set to never, rotation off, battery monitoring off. I have been unplugged since 6:40 EST. Will report battery result at 11:40ish.

Purpose in doing this is I am tired of the battery life sucks claims. You can get good to great battery life with this rom if you know what you are doing, and you play around with your settings to find what is best for you
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
totally agree dude. i just flash yesterdays update around 7am, i'm running platypus r10 (ondemand) ran it tuff all day long to put the battery through hell and by midnight i still had 28%. that's 17 hours with a ton of use. almost non-stop use. streaming youtube, downloading music, xda all day long, listening to music, 3 hours of calls, about 300 texts. i can only imagine how long it would've lasted when not using like i did.

I have not flashed gingerbread bootloaders
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Second method I posted did not work
[Captivate Android Development] jhr5474:
So

I don't understand what the issue is? Why wouldnt I be able to flash this rom? I followed the steps exactly in the op coming from firefly and it just wouldn't boot into anything but recovery
[Captivate Android Development] jhr5474:
No it did not

I was looking over the directions and it didnt tell me to do an efs backup? Is that the issue? I started from step 4 because I was coming from firefly
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
It is hard to say

You did flag the initial cm7 kernel correct
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
The flashable kernel includes the efs script.
[Captivate Android Development] jhr5474:
Yes I flashed the initial kernel otherwise I would not be in a recovery that has me completely screwed
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
you should try a different usb port or download odin again. i've had my usp ports get a little weird on me before from using odin.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
You can get into recovery using button combo but you can not get into dl mode?

Do you live close to a radio shack
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
just re read the op. instructions changed huh?. the cm7 kernel is now flashable through recovery huh? :o I guess reading IS fundemental huh. yep :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] thecellx:
I did the usual format data, system, cache...
[Captivate Android Development] jhr5474:
OH

I am a happy man! I finally got download mode to go and flashed GB! Are you guys going to make this usable with the GB bootloaders ever? Thanks so much for your help I have not even used my phone since I opened the box from samsung unbricking it today. I was sooooo scared!
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
You do not want to use gb boot loaders if it can be avoided. Using another devices boot loader is riskier than most here on xda realize
[Captivate Android Development] jhr5474:
Yeah, I am going to go ahead and say you are talking to a guy that realizes the risk involved with gb loaders! I just got my phone back from samsung because I went to gb and didn't reflash the sbl only the primary. BRICK! As long as I don't try flashing an odin that has only one bootloader to eclair I will be fine. And let me tell you what this gb flies!
[Captivate Android Development] rsx19:

[Captivate Android Development] droid_does:
you could use TiBuPro (paid) or AntTek app manager (free) to freeze it
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
ok so 5 hrs of standby for me translated to 100% to 90% or basically 2% per hour. So if needed I can get 50 hours of standby time. I would actually say that would increase by a bit as the first 10-20% tend to drain faster and the battery appears to stabilize at around 80%. so in summation battery life is great on this rom. Yes if I use the phone with the screen on for 4 hours out of 10 it will die, but for everyday use, as long as you manage your standby, 24 hours use is easy to obtain

Anyone else have an issue with email app? When I refresh on wifi it lava lime it is still using my data services which is edge here at home. I disable data and bam. Email is speedy as hell. If I am on wifi everything should default to using it. Is this not the case?

Also another issue with adding icons to bottom tray. Added too many and the last icon disappears and doesn't show back up until I remove an icon from the bottom bar and reboot.

I'm on platypus r9 also

Im running -100 on all except 1200 @ -125....

I agree with you on battery life, just takes a little initiative.

Great rom btw to all devs.

Battery image or battery life?

[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I don't use the GPS so I'm not sure what the issue would be. Make sure the gps is turned on (you never know).

Mcord might be able to help you further.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I posted the Captivate version on miuiandroid.com, should bring in some more users.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
He's going to make a Captivate forum later on. So that should make things easier for us.
[Captivate Android Development] smeltn:
Are we going to continue to post updates and discussions here or are we going to have to start going over there for stuff now?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
We are still going to continue posting and updating here. The other thread is to just gain more attention and hopefully convince the MIUI Devs to make a Captivate version.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I would presume both
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:
I just want to clarify, installing the update doesn't wipe out my sd card right? I don't need to worry about pictures, music, etc.

I only ask since the instructions indicate the wipe/data, factory reset options.

I did the clean install on sunday, so this is my first update
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
No, it does not wipe your SD card.
[Captivate Android Development] andeke07:
Installed MIUI coming from Firefly (2.2). Installed EFSbackup after flashing Speedmod and before CM7.

Am having trouble connecting, my IMEI was not restored, therefore I don't have a phone number and all those fun things.

Am I screwed? Is there a way to get my IMEI back?

EDIT: I have found a backup/efs folder on my device...Assuming that's of some importance...is there a way to make use of that?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Look on your sd card, do you have a backup folder.

Edit: Hold on, need to find out what files you need to replace.
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:
but it does wipe everything else out... :/

Can updates not be done without resetting everything?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
You can just format system and cache. It will keep your apps. Don't forget about the miui backup, it will back up your call logs, apps, SMS messages, launcher layout, etc.

alright, ive got a strange one, not sure if anyone else has this, but, when i mess with themes on my phone i can still use everything, with the exception of calls. i cannot recieve or send call audio until i reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Can you not make/receive calls or not hear the other person?
[Captivate Android Development] andeke07:
Using Root Explorer I can see the files in my /efs directory are all 0 bytes, with the exception of .nv2.bak, which is 924K. I found the folder for efs backups (supposedly, /sdcard/backup/efs...sounds pretty official), and all of those files have a size between 1 Byte and 2 MB...seems to be the contents of the /efs ... could simply replacing the files do the trick?
[Captivate Android Development] DrDubzz:
speaking of launchers, can MIUI use a regular launcher with an app drawer and all that? That's really my only gripe about MIUI thus far, the iphone like app display. I really like just having my frequent flyers available and the rest tucked away in the drawer
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
You can install launcherpro, adw, go launcher, etc.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
None of them should be zero. My guess is that is didn't back it up properly. Go back to stock and try again. Make sure you follow step-by-step of the instructions on the front page.
