Yea I've had that happen a lot. I think the battery stats on miui are to inconsistent to use. Id recommend a third party app if you want to track battery life. Also I'm not sure if it's talon or the new update, but an hour after being unplugged with no use on wifi data disabled I was at 89% I've never seen it drain that quick before.

MIUI 1.8.12 w/ TalonMTD & V6 ram script.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I changed the default kernel to TalonMTD too and noticed a considerable drain compared to stock kernel irrelevant if I UV or not. I am currently on Glitch V11 ML and it initially appears better on battery but hasnt been long enough to say for sure. TalonMTD was faster than stock for me for sure, without UV or OC.
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
I was finally able to get Talon to work and I must say I have been happy with Neo 16 r2. It has the stability I wanted with higher OC/UV compared to Talon on my phone and it was just as fast. I compared where I was with OC/UV on both kernels. Not keeping them stock for comparison.
[Captivate Android Development] arsen1977:
Miui 1.8.12 + Talonmtd 3 days use.

First day i had no issues except a minor one where data has to be turned on after reboot.

Second day, randomly lost all 4 bars and they wouldnt come back. After rebooting the phone, Airplane mode was turning it self ON automatically, and wouldnt turn off even if i try to. Finally when it allowed me to turn off the air plane mode, everything became normal. I couldnt use the phone for at least 45 min due too this issue.

Did any one have those issues?
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
That should be due to the ROM. Most people were experiencing similar issues after flashing to 1.8.12. You can try another kernel and see if it happens though.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Several of my theme componets that I have are showing "no preview." Any way to correct that?
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Anyone have a zip of the stock kernel from1.8.5?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Do you still have the 1.8.5 zip for the rom?
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Yes. Just not sure which files and how to make the zip. Can do it if someone can fill me in.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Ok are you using a stock kernel or custom?

In either case you should have the kernel cleaning script and run it prior to kernel flash. This is what I would do but if I am wrong anyone feel free to correct me

Take another kernel zip, I have talon

Take the boot.img from 1.8.5 & replace the one in the zip

Go into system

You want to eliminate anything in the three categories that does not exist in the rom package or replace any files that do exist with the ones from 1.8.5 the main things you will have to replace is the modules under lib

Once you have eliminated all not present and replaced all duplicates you should be good to go . At least this is what I believe its correct. Leave the bml files and the manifest.

This can be done using winrar 7 zip our even on your phone using astro file manager. This has worked for me in the past
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Thanks a lot, will knock it out tomorrow.
[Captivate Android Development] xijar:
Anyone else getting random battery drops on reboots? At&t is overnighting me a battery but I really don't think its that. Flashed stock to take it to the warranty center and was getting better battery life and no reboot issues. They did still agree to replace both the phone and the battery.

[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Yes. On 1.8.5 I have seen it drop 5% give or take after a reboot.

i put my theme's on the sd card of my phone and whenever i go to import theme i click on them and nothing happens....any suggestions??
[Captivate Android Development] stewi21:
the only time ive got a battery drop on reboot the battery percentage started going back up afterwards, this leads me to think its just a calibration issue

Is there a stock browser that works? The last one fc on me
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Mcord what theme are you using??? Specifically for the status bar???
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
You have to follow the miui screen shot thread, cause most of the stuff I end up using does not ever officially get released. Let me see if I can find the link

I'm trying to make Google search my default search app when I press the search button but I just can't do it. I had it before, does anyone know how to do this?
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
hey guys,

been on the battery issue for a bit. Noticed a huge gain in the drain by android os, was always display previously. Is this happening to anyone else. If not should i go to stock with odin and reflash miui?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
The android os thing is a known issue. I have had some luck controlling it by using the v6 super charger script. I would try that before going back to stock

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991276
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
just the answer i was looking for. i did a very clean install from odin (miui being my first rom and haven't looked away, been here since 6.24). Just noticed this is increasing with every release. I have no issues at all with the rom (funny behaviors). Just hear people talk about odin then reflash to correct any issues.
[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
Anyone? Its annoying not being able to use Google search as default.
[Captivate Android Development] conantroutman:
This is a ROM development thread and not a suitable place to discuss the release / specs of a new phone. MIUI or not.

Back on topic please.

To the guy who repeatedly asked for the mods to "handle their business"....

Did it cross your mind to alert me to this thread going off topic?

:rolleyes:

Again, back on topic please. The topic is the development of this ROM for those of you who are unsure....
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
First time in my recollection that a moderator has visited this thread. shame that people who have been uninvolved in this can just show up and cause conflict
[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
Hey, I haven't been able to find an answer for this yet, but anyone know how to fix the Android OS thing? it didn't used to do this and it's odd cuz it is there for both CM7 and MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Try v6 super charger. I linked it earlier today
[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
Alright I'll give it a shot, just found the post :)

EDIT: What am I looking for exactly? I just did this and now I am wondering if I'm supposed to notice anything :3
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
+1000... flippen trolls..... not the mod... the Guy who complained
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
In theory should make things smoother and handle ram management more efficient.

What options did you use
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
May be a dumb question.. but the cm7/miui modems thread in the I9000 section.....can we use those for the captivate? Or are they packaged differently? The reason I ask is because they look the same I.e radio-cm-7-GalaxyS-kg3? If so can we add them the op?
[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
I ran option 6, but I just flashed BiffMOD ROM, am I supposed re-do the script and stuff?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Should be fine to user as far as I know
[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
Alrighty, what option did you use?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:

[Captivate Android Development] ronii1123:
How's Battery life, like with Android OS Task and such? and any other noticeable differences?
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
Actually, it makes things smoother in reality as well.

But, it's result is not very visible. Still, it does help slightly. :)

And, it's like almost no effect on 1GB RAM mobile phones.
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
never had a problem with android os in battery life until the last two releases. it's demolishing my battery. have no clue why. supposed to be a bug, but what did they change to bring this on? wasn't a problem in the .7 series

whats the difference between miui.us version and protos?

Time for good old root explorer method.

Extract the ota file and updater.apk from the zip.

Paste the ota file in system/xbin and overwrite the old file. Change permission (see attachment).

Paste the updater.apk in system/app and overwrite the old app. Change permission (see attachment).

Reboot phone.

According to miui version number, I guest the MIUI 1.8.19 will be released tomorrow, right?

(release every week on Friday)
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Tomorrow is Thursday the 18th.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Question, under permissions I do not have set UID and GID. I am using root explorer. Is there another program that will give me these options? Also, its still telling me I need a miui acct but when I go to miui.com its in chinese and the english site I dont see where I can sign up.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Post a screenshot of the permissions.

I'm not sure what you clicked on but you don't need an account to use it. The updater included in the rom is the Chinese version; just ignore it, don't open it, don't even look at it.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Will do. Just starting a downtime so will post up tomorrow if I cant figure it out. Thanks for this, looks cool.
[Captivate Android Development] parnz:
Sorry, difference time zone :p

My current local time is Aug, 18th 9:45AM :D

Nice

I updated it.. but i guess no updates till friday :)

Thanx
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
I updated the updater and its file. I'm on 1.8.5 and it says in up to date. Weird.... I am on miui.us version so I'm not sure if that matters?

Unless I'm reading it wrong, according to partial change log on miuiandroid, looks like we.may be finally able to charge the phone with it turned off with the new update tomorrow:-)

[Captivate Android Development] thatcher:
Before installing,,does anybody know how this process works? Automatic downloads or option to choose to update manually? Can you choose wifi only vs 3g data update?

Does it wipe cache/data etc? Will there be an option for full rom downloads or will this replace it with just incremental patches?

Think will wait to see how it goes with others before flashing..I usually need my phone in the mornings :p
[Captivate Android Development] skins2win:
Hey guys is there a reason my phone's memory does not exceed more than 95m?

I have 512 ram on my captivate but why is that with this rom my phone is slower and has barely any memory?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
I just noticed that I am in the same boat. Down to 28 mb of ram and I have v6script with htk launcher and 512 ram. Odd. I have a bunch of processes running though. clock.. gv.. etc... trying to decide what to get rid of is hard lol:-)
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
1.8.19 will be the first ota update.

Right now the app is force closing (was working earlier); issue is with miuiandroid.com changing/editing some things. Hopefully it will get fixed soon.

You will have to download it manually (aka press the "update" button).

It does not wipe cache/data (since it's updating the rom). And yes you can download the full rom from the menu (obviously my tweaks won't be included; I will still release my tweaked version here for new flashers).

The ota update will be a small file (easier and faster to download) and my tweaks will remain intact since they don't get changed.

-------------------------------------

And we will not be getting a stable version this week. Maybe next month. :p
[Captivate Android Development] ToX93:
so you're saying we can download it tomorrow through the updater app and your tweaks will still remain?
[Captivate Android Development] arsen1977:
My updater showing that there is a update available 1.8.18

But when i hit update, the app forcloses.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Yes.

If you flashed the ota zip, redownload and flash again, as it has been updated.

Nah proto's tweaks will remain since it is not wiping anything.

Edit: Nvm proto already answered it lol
[Captivate Android Development] thatcher:
Is there usually a certain time that they post files on Friday? I saw in a thread they would release full release notes at 9/10am?
[Captivate Android Development] xtracrispy69:
with the ota updater, won't that eventually slow things down as compared to a fresh wipe each time?
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Looking at battery usage, etc and when I go into cell standby does anyone know what "cell signal over power" is? It is always by far the greatest of the standby usage. Is that just whats classified above whatever range is 4 bars?

-----------------------------------

Status of 1.8.19: Mark (miuiandroid.com) is going crazy and is not updating the rom today. Which means no ota update for those wanting to try it out.

And which also means I will have to use the miui.us version, which I'm going to upload right after posting this. The ota update for 1.8.26 will be from miui.us instead of miuiandroid.com.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
Hell. But, never mind. We've you, the almighty Prototype159 to compile those stuffs for us here.

Thanks a lot. Waiting for your upload. :p

[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:

I don't know. I'm getting tired of Mark's attitude. This isn't the first time he's done it.

I will probably just use the miui.us version since people seem to prefer that version.

Just basically need to hold out until MIUI adds the full english translations.
[Captivate Android Development] MadeInMex4usa:
OK thanks I will download the one in the OP I didn't want to download twice thats why i asked thanks
[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
I'll try reflashing to stock and seeing if that works.
[Captivate Android Development] xijar:
Any way to make it so the power button opens the toggles page? This has kept me away from MIUI.us in the past. Obviously not gonna kill me but fallen in love with that feature xD.

Also, data and keyboard settings dont stick still.
[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
I flashed back to stock and reflashed MIUI and it still wont read my card. It says i inserted an empty sd card and to reformat it. It only clears out the internal one. I dont know what to do anymore...
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Did you do this?

Q: My phone can't detect my external sd card?

A: Look in your sd card for a folder called, external_sd card. If it is not there, create one, and then reboot.

If it is still not being detected after making the folder, go into the MIUI Gallery, hit the menu button, select "rescan sd card".
[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
I think that is a good idea. The miui.us version works great except that you can't charge with you phone off...lol but that's not big deal.
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
you need to make external_sd folder under sd card folder. So it is gonna be /sd card/external_sd

I got it to work... but with the help of Tasker though...its a life saver! lol

What do you mean with the help of Tasker?
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
It's an all that allows you to run automated "tasks" based on certain triggered events. So he probably has it set to turn his data on when the phone boots up. Which is a good idea, methinks Ima do the same ;P
