Somehow the latest Neo platypus kernel was lagging for me. 1.2 ghz and -75 undervolt. I even tried the v6 supercharge, not much of a change.

Back on 1.9.16 default.
[Captivate Android Development] Cozmo1:
1) Backup all of the apps you want to keep with Titanium Backup

2) Download the MIUI rom and save it to your internal SD card

3) Reboot into Recovery and go to "Mounts and Storage"

4) Format /system, /cache, /data and /datadata

5) "Go Back" and choose "install zip from SD card" then "choose zip from sdcard"

6) Navigate to your MIUI Zip and select it

7) Once it is done loading and you're booted into you MIUI rom reinstall "Titanium Backup" and reload your backed up apps.

I've been running MIUI with I9000 GB bootloaders and never have had any issues. In fact I get better battery life using these bootloaders in comparison to Froyo bootloaders.

I'm at -100 up to 1.3. Then -75 for 1.4 and -50 for anything higher. I don't usually go past 1.4 though. So far so good for me. Problem free.

It was me too, reflash solved it. But this should go on the kernel thread. So he knows

I do not encounter anything from Neo 17 R15 Kernel.

Wondering why you guys say it's LAG?
[Captivate Android Development] Seahunts:
Probably a silly question, but at what point will this ROM ask me to input my SIM pin number so I can search for networks and set up APNs etc ?
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
wondering if someone could try this. Galnet is deleting the telelocation apk as part of their rom and I have read that others have said it is a fairly major source of battery drain. I am getting great battery life out of galnets latest for the captivate which does not include it.

If anyone is willing to freeze this apk or delete it and report back if you notice an improvement, that would be great.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
That is one of the things I froze as soon as I could. Along with stock email, sidekick app, and a few other things I didn't use.
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
freezing it now and i'll report back
[Captivate Android Development] DarkVasyaK:
battery life still sucks :(

It's only 3 hours of surfing the internet with wi-fi

[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
question about the sidekick app. I terminate tasks with it frequently, not sure if thats a good idea but if I go into battery monitor and see things running away which I do often I use this apk. Is there a better way?
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Sidekick is one of the things I don't use. If you use it, don't freeze it.

Pretty new to MIUI as I have been on cm7 for months. Is it normal for DATA ENABLED to turn itself off on each reboot?

I first had an issue with my apn a little bit and had to add the mms section. Had to start over from a second flash after wiping data/factory reset and make sure my sim card was in phone before flashing MIUI. Got everything working correctly for a day with no issues. I rebooted this morning and data wasn't working. I went in and checked and data was disabled again. Re-enabled and got data back again. Rebooted again just to verify and again data was disabled. Thanks for any insight and if I missed the answer in here somewhere sorry ahead of time.

[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Yes, its normal for data to be disabled after reboot....its a known bug.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Yeah, data off at reboot is a known issue. After awhile, it becomes second nature to drop down the staus bar and reenable it.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Go to that thread on the first page, click the weblink to the IRC. Directly below that is what you put in the window when it launches.....#platy...something. Enter some random screen name as well and hit connect or launch...whatever. Then at the top of the page once it connects into the IRC you will see the download links for the kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
its #platypus-kernel, and click on the chat button.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
GoCat and MrHaley thanks just making sure. I guess I will have to put the data button back onto the pulldown menu. Thanks

On a side note really liking MIUI, had to get used to some off the setup but the customization is pretty cool.

[Captivate Android Development] KonaZXIII:
This is a huge thread so please forgive, but is the 12 hour clock mod from the OP broken?

These last two times using MIUI I always get failure notices in CWM.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
What causes a failure in CWM? What are you trying to do?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Before flashing it, go into mounts and storage, mount /system, then flash the zip.

They are using a code that detects what recovery you are using, but is currently not supported for our device so it doesn't mount the system which makes the zip not flash.

What is telelocation services named in titanium backup, because I can't find it anywhere, and I want to freeze it. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Idk what it is, but I froze it. Galnet completely removed it.
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
I think it is called telelocation_provider.apk . It should be in red as it is a system app by default.

"Follow my steps:

- Get Root Explorer and browse to system--> app--> delete TeleLocation.apk - Then go to Settings ---> Personal --- > My location and turn OFF WIFI to locate your location - Restart Your Phone - Use it till it shuts down - Charge till 100% - The Android OS high usage bug is gone and u have good Battery life"

I have galnet chameleon final, but no huge battery savings... I get 20-30ma standby on very good signal at home, data disabled. N ~50ma at plant, and with very low signal, and occasional signal loss, data disabled. It's decent. But still just 1.5 days material, v.low compared to froyo. Any more ideas?

can't get root?

I have successfully flashed 1.9.16 but am stuck with Superuser v2.3.6.3.... it notifies me of an update then failes to update and notifies that it placed a SU update on my sd card.

When I boot into CWM recovery and try to flash zip..... it aborts with the simple message "bad" ....

Super One click - just hangs 'waiting for device" even tho usb debugging is on and I have alll drivers on my pc.

PS.. I have i896 bootloaders (came from a pinical 1.2 flash)

Please Help !!

(ps. the reason i found i had no root was my SIP client was FC'in..... I am assuming this is a root problem? Anyone got SIP set up on 1.91.6???)

[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Battery use will vary from phone to phone even if rom/kernel/modem remains the same.

It is outside the scope of this rom development thread to discuss battery usage unless there is a rom related problem.

Try a battery calibration and see if that helps, at least two or three cycles. Freezing system apps (search or read this thread) can also help.

In short disabling data will help battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] Nick James:

[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
The reason to delete certain modules were because not every kernel used the same ones. So it might cause issues, such as it would boot loop once and then boot. But the issue seems to be fixed.

I downloaded the one that was posted here earlier. I am swamped today at work but tonight I can try to apply the fix zach put out for earlier kernels and see if that does it.

NOt seeing that issue on my end.

I have seen more FC's and a couple reboots, as well as the sudden lag issues showing up. There seems to be memory issues with this release.

I've been on GalnetMIUI for a while, and I have to say, the new Chameleon Final is the best MIUI by far. I use it with:

*Neo 17

*KC1 (best for Rogers in the greater Toronto area)

*Juice Defender

Battery life is incredible, better than Samsung ROMs, in my opinion. I get 36 hours minimum, with average use. It's got a lot to do with Juice Defender I think. Some people hate it, I love it. It just sits there, and when my screen goes off, after 60 seconds it turns off data. Then, every hour, with the screen still off it switches data on momentarily so the Gmail app can check my inboxes. Wicked.

Also, wifi uses far less battery when connected than 2G or 3G, so always use wifi if you have the option.

And of course, sensors off (auto rotate and auto brightness). GPS off all the time.
[Captivate Android Development] tkjeeper:
This is all lovely, but that battery life is hard to swallow. I'll have to call bs unless we see some screenshots. My moderate usage results in 18 hrs and I'm thrilled with that.
