[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
2.6.15 is the last build that the op put out before he got a different phone, a page or two back there is a link to the new one, 2.6.29, put out by the community, I haven't found anything broken in it yet except form4g, everything else works smooth and good as it should!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
For the life of me I cannot figure out my SD woes. I need to completely start over on my SD Card. Should my steps be the following...

1. Use Calk's Wipe

2. Flash Annons new build

3. Flash External.zip

? Or should I reformat my SD card? Should I make a SD-EXT part?

Any help would be great guys
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
Flashing the external zip screwed me all up, what worked for me is when I reflashed I just flashed strictly miui, no diff kernels or anything, solely the rom, that cleared up my sd issues, so I would do those steps but skip the external zip
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
I'm gonna have to give that a try then. Thanks!

Hey guys. Quick question. What would be the best version of MIUI v4 that has all of the following working:

-4G

-send/receive MMS/SMS

-camera/camcorder working to full ability

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
Well all that's good except for 4g on the new one 2.6.29, for all that though you would want to drop back to 2.6.8
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beserker15:
Weird that people aren't getting 4G with the CaptainMorgan build. Maybe it's because I flashed it on top of the older builds without wiping that it works for me. I've been running MIUI for months without wiping when updating.

So if you want 4G to work, I'm guessing you should flash an older build (I was running 2.5.25), then flash CaptainMorgan's 2.6.29, then flash TCP's FE22 AOSP kernel. 4G definitely works for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sai5o4:
Any chance you guys will implement 4g into the next build? I know that CaptainMorgan and Anon don't have the need to as they don't have 4g in their area, but it would be nice to have for those with 4g in their area. It's really the only thing keeping me away from this rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
captains original build had 4g in it, the one without sms/mms receive working, but i did complete wipe and reflashed the build anon put up, and thats when 4g dissapeared. doesnt bother me though, no 4g here :silly:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sai5o4:
I think most people with no 4g are on the build that Anon posted up with working sms/mms, but no 4g.

Downloading now. I'll report back as soon as I get it up and running.

Update: Camcorder doesn't work and FC's when changed to 480p. 3MP seems to be the limit for the camera? I don't know if that was a common issue. 4g works! Themes work, but you have create the folder "theme" under /data/system. It's very smooth!

--When it first booted up, I got 2 FC's. One said "NetworkLocationProvider" has unfortunately stopped. And the other said "Updater" has currently stopped.--

do we need to flash the sd card fix after flashing this rom?

i don't have a sd card on my phone, so after i flashed and tryed to use the camera it keeps saying no sd card or to remount the sd card.

edit: i will retry with out the sd card fix

edit: camera didn't work, i can change to 720 and 1080 however when you press the record button nothing happens it doesn't start recording, it don't give any error message or anything it just don't start recording after i press the record button.

The picture work but, i can take a picture normally i am not sure if this is a miui issue but the camera settings is stuck at 3mp.

let me know if that is anything else i can do to help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hooover:
These camera issues have been present in the last couple of builds, using ICS camera as pointed out by another member allows for 8mp pictures, but still does not implement HD recording higher than 480p. That and the SD issues are the only thing keeping this ROM from being the badass that it truely is, every other ROM that had SD issues have had these issues ironed out... though MIUI has many features that I wish were avaiable on other ROMs....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Anon9mouz:
What's these other roms cause me might need to update the libs bins and vender.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] saejin2000:
Can this be flashed over 6.15?

Or flashed from scratch? (ie, EL26 recovery etc)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
Any idea how to get the lock screen to be themed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
Personally I would flash from scratch, that way you know you have a fresh clean install, just run miui backup before you do, flash the new one, then restore, all your apps and home screen layout and settings are preserved that way.

I just use the theme manager then mix then lock screen...is it not working for you?vdide you create /data/system/theme ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
Thought I did but I'll give it another go

Can some one tell me the advantage of this current version over the last GB Miui version? PS, anyone have a download link to the last GB version? Thanks!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vvette:
Why? Seems like the same rom only with 4g potential...Any differences?:cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
Hmm... Lol.. I haven't been on a gb version of miui since my evo. So I'm not to sure about any notable differences besides Android version. Broader selection of apps perhaps? and the excitement of telling all your friends your on ics while they are on gb... Status alpha. Lol continuing updates as well, come on someone help me out its early !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xxxicu812:
Just compare all the Ics change logs with the last gb change log. All the differences are mainly subtle. with the exception of the framework.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Anon9mouz:
OK its funny hearing u guys compare gb to ics its plenty of major changes how everything works and no not comparing change logs but more comparing features and optimizations of gb vs ics both miui and just regular Google android. But now all jelly bean is, is a better ics a lot faster smoother more fluid and extra features but same look as ics. How do I know bc look at my sig lol:p

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vvette:
Thanks but just trying to figure out whats what and if the jump from GB to ICS is worth it. The guys (developers) here deserve much credit and $$$ for what they do. No big deal, hey, Im a LOSER viking fan with a team full of drunks, wife beaters, law disrespects etc, what do I knowThanks!:o
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
I guess it's all just personal preference. I like being ahead of the game and having the newest version of something available to me. ICS in my opinion is faster, smoother, there's more options and apps and types of things you can do, as well as visual enhancements etc.. If you don't want to make the jump to ICS, then by all means stay on gingerbread, but for me, miui plus ICS, I couldn't ask for more.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] monkeybone12:
I took my time to make the jump. The first few renditions of ICS MIUI I tried were buddy. 6.8 ha been treating me well. Battery is good, and everything I use works. I haven't flashed back yet.

:)

Advantages are ICS applications and cool factor.

6/8 seems to have all the essentials working properly. This may be the build to keep until (if) TCP releases an update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] diablo311:
so i flashed the miui with out the 4g and i dont have a recovery so i cant do the gps fix :/ what recovery can i get to do it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
This should also work for MIUI. I tried it on CM9 and it worked just fine.

Basically you are flashing a temporary stock TW rom to update PRL/PROFILE, GPS fix etc and when you're done reboot your phone. Should reboot right back into your AOSP rom. Basically you're saving the time of doing a nandroid of your current rom and later, a restore of your rom.

I'll have a link to dev host once I take care of camera fc. But receiving SMS and mms does work.:)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
Don't mean to re-kill a dead horse (huh?) but just to clarify things...your port will have all of these things working (once the camera issue is resolved:)

- Full capacity camera/camcorder

- 4G

- working recovery

- accessible internal/external sd card

Also, in that pic you posted a few post ago I noticed that you didn't have that annoying dual 3G/1G signal indicator. Is that a new thing?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
Camera has fc issues. I tried keeping the camera from the last build which at least for me had 8mp photo and 1080p video but this time it is not liking this newest miui update.

4G-I have absolutely no way of testing that out :(

recovery-i didnt know that it wasnt working, are you referring to CWM recovery or miui backup?

interna/external worked for me. i always go straight to the latest CM9 kernel which is currently FF18.

One really nasty thing that I have discovered and I am not sure why the heck this is happening, but the phone runs hot and the battery drains fast. I mean like taking it and throwing it over the Grand Canyon and watch it drop fast. I have three extra batteries and two went from fully charged to 20% in two hours. So, I really am super stumped on this. If this is something that is not kernel related this version won't be usable for anyone. Seeing as how our phone has been on FF18 nearly three weeks when the updates were coming fast and furious I hope that sammy is releasing the update along with source soon. Because if this is where MIUI for us gets to be, updates will be futile with battery life this low.

Anyways, I am trying to get that update out though :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
I tried Camera ICS out from market. It actually has better features than just the stock camera yet looks strikingly similar :rolleyes: It works great. 8MP photos 1080p video recording. What more could you ask for ;) Let me change the nomenclature of the update-script and build.prop and upload and we will be good to go. I promise that I have tested to the best of my feeble ability this time :laugh:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
Thanks for that detailed breakdown man. Look fwd to your release!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
he said the battery life is pretty horrible. just read his post a few post ago.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
Battery is wretched. I have experimented with various kernels and all give the worst life possible. Not the fault of any of the devs they do an awesome job with limited resources.

Also, uploading build to dev-host. Will follow later with install instructions and links. Yes, two apps, but good news camera works again.

This is how I installed this version of MIUI:

Flashed back to EL29 Direct boot to CWM

Wipe cache and dalvik

Flash newest build of MIUI on top of 2.6.29

After booting up and things settle I flash CM9 FF11 kernel (this one seems to work best for me).

OK here is the main caveat: I could not get ThemeManager.apk newest build to flash along with the rom without godawful force closing. To circumvent this I included the newest build as a download. Which can be installed with FileExplorer or ES file explorer or whatever you like. FIRST, load thememanager as it is and exit or let it force close on you THEN install the latest build and all should be good. I have installed many themes to make sure it is running ok. Camera app is working again, go figure. And, I have sent SMS and MMS from wifes phone several times to make sure its working. I am running Kobridges tweak from 2.6.8 and if time permits I'll look over those again, but as it stands battery literally sucks. (even if running those tweaks)

Link to Kernel repository maintained by rwilco12 you can experiment with CM9 and AOSP/AOKP kernels only. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1662295

And, lastly, thanks to T.C.P for the help and Anon9mouz and jafterdark. I would have corrected the updater-script but it aborts install if even one byte is changed (seriously WTH do I have such problems with this ROM :p)

Starting to take a look at Kobridges tweaks for MIUI. As I'm now approaching the busy part of this week for me this is something that I'll be testing on my own over the next week and hopefully have it for release with the next build (which I hope can go smoothly now). My hopes are that with each build I can release a corresponding tweak pack!

Any way to disable button lights? In the newest build from captain
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
I'm looking at what specifically was different between A, M, F, and SF (two former are 1Ghz whilst the two latter are 1.2Ghz) but there are other commands one looks for sure to be for lg phones which I dont see how it could help a sammy phone. As of right now I'm googling and reading about what the different commands are. Then I'm just experimenting with different settings. Uploading anything useful at the moment actually wont be actual for a while. However, flashing the tweak from 2.6.8 didnt break anything for me and may still be quite workable for anyone wanting to squeeze a little more time out of their phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
I understand. Just dont want to see you get overwhelmed with the busy part of the week coming up.

Also, you need to make that donate link! I'm def one of the many wanting to buy you a five hour energy drink or something to help you stay alert on shift :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
I found out something. If anyone is have weird issues with their camera app, and you have flashed kobridges tweak, try replacing the build.prop from the main zip back. I found out that was what is causing camera fc and other weird camera issues. Now just have to see why that is.

Tyzing thanks for the offer but I just want to do this for fun. I'm actually wanting to get into Android development and decided to launch with this. Um, with development I mean writing apps. There are no good nursing apps either Android or iOS so I want to be the first to fill that void :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] matt8107t:
I've been using kobridge 3.4a with 2.6.8 with no problems. Getting 4 hour screen on over a day of battery life. One question though when I move files to my external to flash them in the recovery they don't show up only the file there prior to flashing miui show up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] genderblurr:
I'm pretty lost as to why I can't send multi-part sms. I am on 2.6.8. Just got my E4GT yesterday on my birthday. I do indeed love this phone. Other than that, I have a few questions.

If I update to the latest do I have to OC back then reflash? How do you back up everything? What's the best route to take with all of this?

I'm no noob to flashing and rooting. Been doing so since my Samsung Moment(well only rooted this), Hero then lastly OG EVO(flashed and used Miui as my daily driver) .

Thanks to the many devs who made this possible on the E4GT.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
Multi part SMS on stock messaging won't work, Chinese don't have CDMA, hence not implemented, use go SMS or another SMS app and it should work. I would odin back just for safety, don't want to accident,y brick that new phone, so Odin and take the safe route. Use miui backup to backup everything, then once you flash the new version go back into miui backup and restore it. It will. Save everything you could imagine, screen layout, apps, settings, etc.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
Follow my instructions back a couple of pages to get on 2.7.6 no need to format all if you are upgrading. sms will not split the files. so there are two options download an app such as go sms pro or look in the addon section of this forum for the jelly bean mms app and replace the one in miui you can split large messages but loose themeing the mms app only. I recomend experimenting with different kernels to you find one that suits your need, also linked in my post. also internal sd and external sd seem to be correct now and you dont need to flash the external.zip from the op. Use the backup app in MIUI to back up but from upgrading to newest build it should be flawless, but back up to be safe :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] genderblurr:
Thank you both. I will get on it after I eat this birthday cake my nieces made for me. As I am not home I will use her laptop. What are the big changed in this last one compared. Should I just check the Miui channel log?

I know I have been lurking around here a bit and I'm not even currently running the rom yet (been on CM9 since Alpha 2.) I'm hesitant to leave CM9 because pretty much everything is working for me but I just love the UI on MIUI so I think I'm going to give this a run tomorrow.

I address this question to anyone who has been doing a lot of MIUI flashing...especially CaptainMorgan (many thanks for trying your hand at porting this for all of us!)

What is the best overall build of MIUI v4? Seems a handful of you guys are saying 2.6.8 but I know that CaptainMorgan has been putting a lot of work into his most recent port. I would just jump on CapM's latest port but the only thing scaring me is the fact that he said the battery pretty much blows.

Your honest opinions would be much appreciated!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
I'm running 2.6.29 that captain originally uploaded then anon modified, it's somewhere on page 197 or somewhere, it's been stable as hell for me, have everything but 4g, and it fixed Bluetooth and hot reboot problems I was having in 2.6.8. I haven't jumped on the newest one yet so I couldn't tell ya about that one
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
Naturally I'm sportin' my latest port :) but I also have been messin around with the tweaks for the phone. I dont have an exact on the latest but running the tweaks and changing a few settings I got fairly decent battery life out of it today. On 2.6.8 I could get 3 hours of screen time and around 8-9 hrs battery. Or with minimal screen time I could get around 14 hours of battery. Kernel plays a huge part (as noticed by the no source from sammy) in battery life. At the moment I am on chris41g newest AOSP FF18 with CWM5. There are some pretty cool features do this week that look to really enhance the OS, but up till now, aside from toolbox, there is no really massive changes from 2.6.8 (so far the most stable, and just being honest :angel: )
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cknuth:
I'm guessing that the themes not working for certain elements (notification) is due to lack of kernel source?
