Mi-one miui phone?

Any good news for US citizens concerning the MI-ONE MIUI PHONE? This will be the next phone I purchase!
[Captivate Android Development] mikel.canovas:
Can people please report on battery life for them? I tried miui before w/ a custom kernel w/ uv but still had awful battery life.

Yes, I am using stock kernel on 10.14 and I can charge with the phone off.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
The Xiaomi M1 phone won't be shipped until later this month. However I saw this article where people are selling their pre-order numbers. 500 RMB is about $80 plus the cost of the phone, plus shipping to the US.

Stop slagging others because your own battery life sucks. I also get great battery life, and if I recall, I proved it to you with a dozen screenshots and you still didn't believe me.

Go away.
[Captivate Android Development] tkjeeper:
Buddy, please. If you or that dude I challenged can show me a screen shot of DISPLAY TIME at 11-12 hrs. Then you have something to say. But even that can be manipulated. It's just silly. Good display time for ANY rom is 4 hrs...period. To say that you TRIPLE that is just that, silly. Do you think the readers here are morons? Let's keep things realistic.

What does this have to do with the guy supposedly getting 14 hours display?

I don't know what battery life you were getting that caused an argument... but to the guy with 14 hours display, he definitely didn't reset his battery's "Monitor battery usage" after each charge, so his display time accumulated.

He even state that he was using a 3500mAh battery, more than double the 1500mAh battery that is default, so before you start **** you must realize that his statement is valid
[Captivate Android Development] zerkai:
Still unlikely. There's been tons of battery statistics in the Accessories thread on extended batteries and no one reported anywhere near 14 hours, let alone even 8. Unless he got a golden 3500mAh battery from the glorious eBay... I highly doubt it so I wont go there. It wouldn't reach 14 hours anyways even if he did.

Ok. 4hrs of display is a great day for anyone. Now, dude claims more than triple that on slightly more than double the capacity. To me, when you add all that up it equals a load of BS(a metric load, not a standard load). Just my opinion.

[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
yeahh, i mean, i too have the aforementioned extended battery, and how i use my phone (probably considered EXTREME usage by many ive seen on xda) i utilize juice defender ultimate to the utmost potential, underclock on occasion, never oc past 1.3 ghz, automatic backlight 90% of the time, though constant multitasking of dozens of apps or tethering to my pc/tablet/netbook/xbox every day doesnt help my case either, i STILL only get 4.5-5 hours screentime on the BEST of days... ive spent cold hard cash and researched many hours on battery life on androids at this point and before all of my "battery life increasing tweaks" if you will i get measly 2-3.5hrs of screentime, that doesnt cut it for me, WITH my extended battery i still (sometimes) charge mid-day, but my literal screentime on a day-to-day basis is like 6.5 hours (yes an hour i might be charging or something) but heres the deal, if i NEVER touch my phone, (aka dont charge it overnight) i lose about 1-4% over 8-9 hours of STANDBY time... people who boast high battery life treat their phones like cancer and dont enjoy playing with it or something because TRUE USAGE is with the screen on USING the phone, burning 100x more battery life than standby (rough estimate) ending up in 4-6 hours of true use depending on stock or extended battery IF you have things set up in a battery efficient way on your phone

There. Now go and sit in your corner and be sad that you don't get as much out of your phone. Maybe I did get the golden ebay battery, or maybe I know what I am doing. Regardless, you aren't going to find out.

What is the deal with XDA these days? I remember back in the day when we had windows mobile, this site was about sharing and helping, now its about talking the most crap to people.

Maybe its because flashing is so easy now and bricking doesn't happen very much...who knows. All I know is I am very very tempted to leave and go to Modaco or somewhere else...The immaturity here sickens me.

If you want to know what type of tweaks I am running for battery life PM me, but I don't feel like putting it out on this forum because most of you act like children.

and here's this one.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Phone was unplugged for 25 hrs with 16hrs of display time and yet your display is showing only 25% usage?

It's because display time doesn't reset unless you toggle the battery monitor off and then on after a charge.

I believe that the Ralph Theorem applies in this instance.

Question guys : do i need to be on GB before i flash this or can i just flash from 2.1 AT&T Stock ?
[Captivate Android Development] J-Wall:
Flashing from Stock 2.1 will be fine, I do that every time I update.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Ok. I put forth a motion that, from this day forward, all battery life claims be backed with solid, photographic evidence in the manner below

Showing these three views should keep everything legit. Do I have a second?
[Captivate Android Development] votum:
You aren't a math guy are you?

25% of my battery was used by the screen. Voice calls use more battery than screen time, which is why my voice call time is just over 3 hours, but using almost as much as the screen. Phone idle used the most, because obviously I wasn't on my phone for 25 hours straight. I still havent plugged it in now by the way, and have been texting and calling all morning because I am at work. A good example why your argument dosen't work is that my wifi was on the entire time. So tell me why my wifi used 5% of the battery and not 100?

Fail. Everyone has varying mileage on these roms, if you've been here longer than a day you would know that.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Can we please stop, it's getting annoying.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
The point is that there is no possible way that your display could have been on for 65% of the time, and only use 25% of the battery. Especially considering that the percentages suggest that your phone was idling for the majority of the time.

Edit: also noting that your phone has 32% battery left. Meaning your battery lasted that long and only used up 2/3 of your battery. If you had actually read what people were saying, you'd know that the display time doesn't reset after a charge unless you toggle the monitor settings off and on when you unplug. Otherwise the total time just stacks.

And I don't appreciate the personal attacks.

[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
Does anyone really believe that I got 3days of display time? COME ON! You need to hit the menu key, select "Unplugged usage" and then hit the display. That should show a more accurate number.

While I agree as well, miss information needs to be nipped in the butt when possible.

Anyhow my main reason for coming to this thread is to find out if TV out had been fixed with this Rom.
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
It's a CM issue. I don't think it's fixed there yet(could be wrong), so MIUI likely still has the issue.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:

Is anyone using a silent mode toggle widget? I've always used the one from Curvefish, but it has stopped working. I'm sure it's the ROM and not the widget, because I've uninstalled, reinstalled several times.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Lol. Yeah I never bothered with that feature until I found a cord to use for it laying around in my room a couple of days ago. Then when i couldn't find the option for AV out I googled it and... Yeah, Sadface. Ah well. I'll survive.

Yeah I picked up a cord some time back when I realized I had some money left on my Amazon acct. I should have checked cm7 before I got the cord. It really didn't cost me anything but I feel compelled to put it to use.

Wow typed something about the Xiaomi m1 phone but pasted the link to a battery monitor widget instead!

I've asked someone in China about buying pre-order numbers for the Xiaomi m1 phone, and the response was.. not safe.

We'll have to wait perhaps into November to get some offical news from Xiaomi directly. Might be an off chance for selling the phone in the US but don't count on that happening =)

The battery widget link was posted to help put an end to these little annoying battery life post wars. Please post the Detail battery use view. We can see charge time, screen on time and so on. Posting the first view can sometimes conceal a charge period which inflates the time and so on.

Yes, a discussion about battery life is helpful. We need to know when something is not right with battery life. We also need to know what steps would help to get better battery life. We do not need speculation and post wars spiraling into personal attacks over battery life.

- Yes, the horrible battery drain is caused from CM7 source that Miui is built from. It's widely known that until Miui devs get official AT&T/Samsung Gingerbread source for the Captivate, battery life will suffer.

---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------

In this case, I would backup then Odin to stock. Run a master clear, then flash Miui and see if you can charge with the phone off. Additionally, you can try another kernel to see if anything changes.

Flash Upgrade ROM

I want to upgrade with installed apps in place. I understand that a factory reset or wipe data will remove installed apps. Correct? Is this the process I follow?

1.Make a Titanium Backup (for safety purposes)

2.Make a Nandroid backup (for safety purposes)

3.Download upgrade ROM and move to SD. (Also move to external SD for safety purposes)

4.Reboot to recovery.

5.Wipe Dalvic.

6.Wipe cache.

7.Install zip from sd.

8.Install kernel of choice.

9.Reboot

My microsd doesn't seem to be working either, I came from Rogers 2.3.3 is that makes a difference so i have i896 GB Bootloaders, but i thought only the i9000 Bootloaders caused problems, either phone doesn't even know the microsd is in the slot, or it pops up and says damaged sd card even though it works in my asus transformer and my pc :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] dsc522758:
What is in the /EFS folder?
[Captivate Android Development] jmtheiss:
In a very general sense, all of the information that lets your phone communicate with the cell phone towers. If this is corrupted, it's a pain to try and correct it - a backup will let you just drop in a known good copy to correct it.

That being said, the likelihood of that folder being corrupted is low, but low =/= none, so a backup is a good idea.

Certain apps like Facebook, WeatherBug, Yahoo Mail I find running after a reboot. Is there a reason why they run when I don't asked them to?
