Which is booting fine #2 or #2.1?

2.1 is a test run for whats in store for Friday, it has EVERY build prop ans system tweak and script that i can throw at it......... that's why I left #2 up in case you were having problems and didn't make a back up....word of advice ALWAYS make a NAN-DROID back up.......that way if something goes wrong, it will be YOUR fault not mine. With a fresh backup before flashing you can always go back to where you left off on previous rom.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Just wipe dalvik and re flash and you will get them back....use Root evplorer to delete apps in system folder, i think if you delete with titanium the icons will still be there until you reboot. The deleted apps are fc'ing because they cant be found
[Vibrant Android Development] ajamils:
Did that twice and it kept bringing me back the recovery. The first time I installed it, it got stuck in boot loop.

Will there be any new additions on Friday that we should wait for instead of trying to install this one ?
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
kinda need feedback on the latest release always, that way i can improve upon each release. (feed back while NOT over clocked (1ghz))
[Vibrant Android Development] cale42:
Nick I'm not sure what the deal is. But I followed your instructions to a T 3 straight times and I got stuck in a boot loop every time. The MIUI boot screen would come up.. then it would flash to a CWR screen really fast.. I couldn't tell what it said and then would reboot.. over and over again.

The only thing I noticed slightly weird is that in following the steps when I went to wipe the Davlik cache and chose 'Advanced' it said something about E:\ path invalid(sorry I don't have the actual syntax in front of me) but then wiping the cache worked fine.

I dunno. I didn't nandroid by choice, I had only been running #2 for a day, so I just did a fresh install of that and it is working beautifully.. so I don't know what the deal is.. but there you have it.

[Vibrant Android Development] cale42:
Thanks for the fantastic answer geoff. I thought it was a CM7 issue that the software reboot didn't work, thanks for the confirmation.

I have no desire to mess with the bootloaders. So I'm glad to hear there is really no need.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
So your on #2 now right?

TRY THIS

DONT wipe anything but davik and flash/reboot

(e/nomisc partition) is normal
[Vibrant Android Development] cale42:
So just to confrim.. skip all steps.. except this.

1.Boot into Recovery.

2. Wipe Dalvik.

3. Flash 2.1.

Reboot and let settle.

It will take me a little bit to charge up to 100% but then I'll try it and report back.

cale
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
CORRECT....Dont worry about flashing at 100% you can go into development settings and toggle ''stay awake'' then dim your display down as far as it will go then just let it charge with screen on. This will allow you to charge to 100% VRS 94-96%. THEN WHEN YOU REACH 100% GO INTO RECOVERY AND WIPE BATTERY STATS. :) If you want to be a tester pm me with your email or preferably gTalk.
[Vibrant Android Development] jay661972:
No problem here except those apps i deleted but ok now. See pix revamped 2.1. Dl this morning. Btw, oc to 1.4.
[Vibrant Android Development] AngryDinosaur:
need to be on froyo bootloader! <------ does that include all MIUI rom ------> miui.us, and Segnaro's

does that mean CWM 3 is no rainbow on Gingerbread???
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
CM7 doesn't support gb bootloader. Since miui is based off of CM7, then yes that means miui. The gb bootloaders cause you not to be able to use the external sdcard in miui/CM7.

And the rainbow stuff is only an issue on the Samsung gb roms.
[Vibrant Android Development] cale42:
Same deal. Went into a bootloop where it would flash to CWM, to the boot screen and back over and over.
[Vibrant Android Development] sotodefonk:
Does anyone please can test if the button on a wired headset works to pause/play music?
[Vibrant Android Development] tofuspeedstar:
Works for me, GPS'd my way to a bar after work. :), the lock-on is a bit slow, but I get the general directions I need.
[Vibrant Android Development] ChoctawT:
I really want to put miui back on my vibe... but I need my skype, gps, and battery life... =[ hopefully one day miui will return back to my phone

[Vibrant Android Development] deeznutz1977:
Nick 2.1 its running good for me thanks for all your work. I only have one problem thats with some apps gaining root access nbd though, awesome work
[Vibrant Android Development] deeznutz1977:
Does amyone know how 2 get the ffc 2 work with miui ?
[Vibrant Android Development] Reyland:
I fell in love again with my vibrant using Miui, now I can wait until Hercules arrive!
[Vibrant Android Development] AngryDinosaur:

Vibrant Camera and Alarm App on MIUI

NICK,

Is it possible to add or install the original Vibrant Camera and the Vibrant Alarm clock on MIUI?
[Vibrant Android Development] deeznutz1977:
No u cant miui is asop no touch jizz : :p framework in miui
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
If you look at the CM7 FAQ, they explain how to get ffc working (you need to get the galaxy s i9k version, extract a .so file from it, and push it to the same directory on the vibrant version).
[Vibrant Android Development] derrickps3:
is this the latest miui? cause there are alot, and i want to flash the lastest and greatest one....also is it stable and hows battery life...i have a wall and car charger for when im on the go
[Vibrant Android Development] AngryDinosaur:
flashing this over segnaro's miui tomorrow after the update,

So wipe data, cache, and dalvik

And format system, cache

Does that sound about right?
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
Do exactly what it says in the OP.
[Vibrant Android Development] AngryDinosaur:
Clearly you didnt read the op

It is updated every Friday, same as miui.us and segnaro's miui, so just take your pick and follow direction

It is definitely more stable than all the touchwiz GB rom, battery is good, and if you have a car charger when worry about the battery life
[Vibrant Android Development] derrickps3:
thanks for the response:)
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Yes it is the latest get this one up and running and there will be an update (every Friday)
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
If you are on segnaros juice then follow the instructions in the OP.

wipe dalvik

wipe cache partition

factory rest

format-date, system and cache

fllash revamped

fix permissions

let settle for 6min

reboot

enjoy

If you stay on one version of miui its a lot easier to update.
[Vibrant Android Development] ajamils:
is there any plan for getting a sort feature in the launcher ?
[Vibrant Android Development] ihackyourtech:
Got a random reboot today...
[Vibrant Android Development] derrickps3:
is it ok to flash coming from 2.2?? :o
[Vibrant Android Development] AngryDinosaur:
read the instruction in the second post on page 1

you will odin to JFD first, so no 2.2

i followed it complete step b step, i got no problem at all
[Vibrant Android Development] derrickps3:
lol thanks....i only read the first post thats why :)
[Vibrant Android Development] AngryDinosaur:
ha i just flashed froyo bootloader while on segnaro's MIUI

odin says pass, and i reboot and it only reboots into CWM3

thats weird so i odined to JFD, **** my life
[Vibrant Android Development] UltraVicious:
The way I did it was to copy over the libcamera.so and the miuicamera.apk files from one of the older miui.us roms, I think it was .20 that had an ffc, and using root explorer.place them.I'm their respective folders on the rom.you're on now,

Then change the permissions to r-w-r-r and finally reboot

I think you can also use the camera and lib file from the I9000 miui rom, but I'm not sure
[Vibrant Android Development] ChoctawT:
How do your video apps run? any problems like 90 rotation?
[Vibrant Android Development] adyscorpius:
Thats bound to happen as the MIUI/CM7 Kernels only support MTD partitioning, and not BML (Samsung)

So if you use ODIN for anything, make sure you fully repartition and ODIN to JFD or any other Samsung ROM...
[Vibrant Android Development] lightninbug:
Can't wait till I awake to stable MIUI! !!!
[Vibrant Android Development] VJmac15:
When I try these, it just reboots... like its charging... then boots back to the phone .

i might have to flash another gb rom first
[Vibrant Android Development] deeznutz1977:
Thanks geogfcorey will try
[Vibrant Android Development] VJmac15:
lol well its bricked now, cant get into recovery or odin -.- POS phone . :mad:
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Does rc come out tomorrow?

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Have to leave in an hour or so. Rom Will be posted later today.

bear with me........it will be consider 1.7.8 STABLE
[Vibrant Android Development] AngryDinosaur:
Thanks will be on miui when 1.7.8 comes out
[Vibrant Android Development] Reyland:
I wonder what will be on the stable version because it feels pretty stable for me right now!
[Vibrant Android Development] kteemusic:
My theme manager has been screwing up for the last two builds....I have 1.7.8 and still the same thing I get a FC on theme manager but it only happens after I download a few themes.... I cant understand it...after I delete the themes from the theme folder it stops FC'S.... anyone else experiencing this ..if so how can I fix it...hope someone knows..
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Make sure the themes your using are compatibly with the new UI (remember they changed to toggles?) also reboot the phone after you do a few things or start having problems, Theme Manager is still a WIP
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
JFD has froyo bootlader?

I know how to install CM7 but haven't tried MIUI.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Rom is up!

Read op for instructions
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
OK this is really bugging me now (knowing that it did work at some point) .......Ill be back......
[Vibrant Android Development] bodybombs:
i fixed my data issue in case anybody else has a problem i just toggled airplane mode. wierd how all i needed to do was that to get it to work
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
Nick, instructions have changed a bit and step about efs-backup.zip is gone. This is causing all the issues about NO SERVICE. I read your posts above and flashed KB5 modem and got the service going, but my IMEI reads incorrect in the settings.

What are the proper steps to get the MIUI installed? I saw your link of efs-backup.zip hosted on your domain somewhere, but that link is now dead. can you reupload the zip file and tell me at what step it has to be flashed.

In the past it was all clear, but I forgot the steps, and now efs-backup.zip file is omited from all MIUI/CM7 instructions, and that will surely cause more confusion and issues like for us with no service.

Other than that, awesome job! And this ROM looks amazing!

Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
OK now I'm pissed :D

Full wipe (sd card included), odin to JFD, reinstall cm7 first like I always do, and then install MIUI. Factory resets and cache/dalvik wipes between each as usual.

FC on MMS right away now. The reports on miuiandroid.com are also hit or miss with it working though, so now things seem really weird. I just HAD to flash that damn KB5 modem today...

To the guy who has problems with EFS, I just went through it. You can restore it by installing an old version of CM7 restores an EFS backup. I used the 5/15 initial, I have also used an initial from March. Just make sure you have your EFS backup folder on your sd card before you flash.

I have had problems flashing MIUI straight for some reason, but if I install CM7 first, Im ok.

You don't have a copy of your EFS backup, you say? :eek:

If you don't, that is beyond my power. Im sick of phones for today, off to watch UFC.
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
Hey man, I appreciate your help on this. I am back on JFD now and want to do it properly this time. I would appreciate if you tell me where and which ROM I need to flash so I can get it going the first time around.

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
I agree with having better luck getting cm7 running then flashing miui.....either way im uploading the efs zip but Im on edge and tethering to my laptop so it might be a minute.

HERE YOU GO

Vibrant EFS.zip: http://www.zumodrive.com/share/cLelMGI0YT YAY Go edge!

IVE also got all the old files for the old cm7 install if you cant get the new way to work.......I know that way works.....should have never changed the install method.

by the way I think the initial kernel is supposed to back up efs now (could be wrong?)
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
Ok guys, I found the CM7 ROM with efs-backup.zip and tar kernel from this link http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/install-cyanogenmod-7-android-2-3-gingerbread-rom-on-samsung-vibrant/ I just got it installed and it's loading as we speak.

I'll report back and let you know how it goes from there on.

Thanks Nick for the upload!
[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
I used the all in one 5/15 initial. It does an efs backup automatically. You could go older, but then you need manual efs backup.

Sent from my MIUI powered Vibrant using the XDA app
[Vibrant Android Development] C-Reactor:
I tried fixing permissions as many ways as I can think of, including the ones you mentioned, and no go. :/
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
Ok... no go using older version of CM7, I got boot loop into the CM7 CWM boot and won't boot into the system. Very strange, by flashing MIUI, it loads but with unknown bootloader and no service, even though I flashed efs backup before hand. So, I am clueless, but I had been running older version of MIUI fine, until the latest updates where setup was changed.

Can you please post a link to 5/15 initial so I can try your method?

Thank you!

UPDATE:

OK!! I THINK I GOT IT!

I installed the CM7 nightly build 5/25 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1061889 and flashed MIUI right after and BINGO!!

Thank you guys putting me on the right path! The only thing now is that i see the sdcard icon on statusbar telling me SD card safe to remove. What does this mean?!
[Vibrant Android Development] Jasonhunterx:
Is there a CM7 version for the platypus rev cuz I need that I am getting no audio :"(
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:

[Vibrant Android Development] C-Reactor:
Ok, so here is the full, detailed issue: I cannot run fix_permissions from Terminal Emulator, CWM Recovery, ROM Manager, or via script due to the whole issue with not accepting scripts anymore.

I tried Stericson's Fix Permissions App, but that only displays third-party/downloaded apps, not system apps.

Also tried to look for the fix_permissions file inside the system files to move it to the right place since I've read that the Vibrant tries to look for the file in the wrong place, but that yielded no results as well.

I usually get issues that would be easily resolved by fixing some permissions, but right now, I'm stuck.

I can haz Fix Permissions? :'(
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Never had this problem and dont have it now......anyone else that cant fix permissions? no its just you...try starting over if it was a problem with this rom it would be effecting others. dont understand why you cant just go to system/app folder and scroll down and look at each app and make sure all apps are set to rw-r-r....with root explorer it shows the permissions under each app name (wouldnt take t

2 seconds to confirm).........What does it do when u try to fix in recovery?
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
No its not a known issue. Can u give a little more detail? Are you trying to mount? Cant get to it thru root explorer? Dont see it under about phone?
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Yes but you will loose data (unknown baseband).....I know 4 people with this set-up and we all have audio

If you are having problems then try a factory reset. Audio works fine on MIUI360+Revolutions. (if it is the call issue your not going to fix it with cm7 revelutions, it will prob break ril.)
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
If you are still having the sd card issue (I just seen your first post two pages back) Did you boot cm7 and let it settle then boot back into recovery and flash miui? Or did you flash cm7 and miui in one visit to recovery

-Should do a factory reset

-wipe dalvik

-wipe cache partition

-format, system, data and cache

-Then flash miui

(I would try to do the above steps :)
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Go to system\etc\init.d folder and delete the "05mountsd " file and reboot.

Sorry I was asleep last night when you guys were having problems....School is kicking my ass!
[Vibrant Android Development] VeryCoolAlan:
For some reason the miui360-c was all in chinese and i had no data on any other versions of miui or cm7

[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
LMFAO It's fixed ENJOY!

Wont be around until later but all is good on my end'
[Vibrant Android Development] horatiob:
is the birgertime mute/unmute fix included in this release? If not, can it be patched later?
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
Jfd doesn't have a bootloader.

Since that fix is a hacking work around, it hasn't been uploaded to the CM7 vibrant github (and wont until a more proper methods gets implemented).

So I'm guessing no.
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
It's in the OP that's why I was asking. So same installation for this and CM7?
[Vibrant Android Development] Reyland:
Can someone please post a mirror link to download this, having problems with megaupload.
[Vibrant Android Development] chucky80:
Feedback

Followed instructions and worked perfectly, I took the extra caution of installing chainfire 3d plugin for my THD games and rebooting. I left the phoone for like 20 minutes. came back to it. Everything is snappy, and everything works beside know CM7 issues. So With that, I would like to say thanks to Nick and the rest of MIUI team. Great Rom.

[Vibrant Android Development] AngryDinosaur:
so this rom is not pre rooted

anyway i can root while on this rom?

there is superuser but titanium backup is still saying no root
[Vibrant Android Development] mentalex2:
In having problems trying to download. First, it say "waiting for data connection" for about 3 min. When it finally starts, it downloads around 24KB and says "download complete". I've tried at least 10 times using multiple browsers. Any ideas of what's happening??? I know it has nothing to do with the rom. Just hoping someone had a solution. Thanks for your help and a great rom!
[Vibrant Android Development] mentalex2:
.

First off, I wouldn't use titanium to restore. It causes force closes. Use "backup" to restore apps. Anyway, I've also had the problem with titanium not recognizing root. Just quit and try again. If that doesn't work, reboot. Just keep trying. It does eventually grant root privlages. Make sure each time you try you fully quit titanium and not just back out. Hope this helps.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Yes its pre rooted.....are your other apps that require root working?

I used the su app from market because the su app that comes with it did the same thing....all works fine except titanium
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
+1 titanium causes half the problems in this post. got too much going on to try to fix it now, im trying to straighten out Theme manager (i dont use titanium anyway)

Hold the phone 90% off lol

i could tell them to turn their monitor 90%
