[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
MIUI for the Epic Touch 4G​

This weeks version 2.8.10 (Finally happened!)

Disclaimer: You flash at your own risk of damage to your phone. More of the current kernels have the damaging emmc bug removed and I have safely flashed with ICS kernel but there is always a bit of risk involved. You have been warned.

Steps that I use to flash this ROM:​

1. Odin or Mobile Odin [my preference] back to EL26 Stock Kernel

2.(a) If you are flashing from another ROM that is not ICS MIUI use Calkulin's format all (found at bottom of his post). ELSE:

(b) You are flashing over a previous ICS of MIUI (such as 2.7.6) DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING

3. Flash this week version of MIUI (MIUI 2.8.10)

4. Reboot your device and enjoy all that MIUI is!

Crap, that didn't work!! Don't worry MasterZen88 has this guide:

I can confirm this too... Also If anyone is looking to flash this rom please follow these steps. I have repeated the process at least 10 times:

1. Odin [URL="http://kernelrepo.chris41g.org/default.asp?action=FileDownload&startFolder=%5CRecovery+Kernels%5CGB%5CChris41g%5CStock+CWM%5CTAR&filename=EL26%5FStockCWM%2Etar%2Emd5"]EL26 repacked CWM 5[/URL]

2. Wipe using [URL="http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=928432&d=1330705940"]Calkulin's_FORMAT_ALL[/URL].

3. Flash [URL="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1611797"]MIUI 2.6.15[/URL]

4. After flashing let it reboot into MIUI 2.6.15 ** THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT**

5. Then Odin [URL="http://kernelrepo.chris41g.org/?action=FileDownload&startFolder=%5CRecovery+Kernels%5CICS+CM9%5CChris41g+AOSP+CWM5+Recovery%5CTAR&filename=CWM5%2DSafe%2DAOSP%2Etar%2Emd5"]Chris41G AOSP CWM5[/URL]

6. And Finally flash MIUI 2.8.10 v4

Edit by me. This is the way I flashed 2.8.10 see post two.

Changelog​

Found on the MIUI website

I wish to thank for the help, it was needed greatly​

T.C.P, Anon9mouz, and jafterdark

And to Tyzing and jeffm922 for risking their devices while I was teaching myself to port this over.

MasterZen88 has been a big help

And, especially Lens_flare for this outstanding guide It has helped getting this weeks port done.

Now for the disclaimer:

I have no 4G here in Phoenix. I see that 4g turns on for me but alas with no towers in the valley of the sun, no wimax. Thus if 4g is a must you are gonna want to move along. Sorry. I've read posts of it being broken and wish it wasn't but that I can't fix There are many people I see that have Wimax, so it looks hit or miss. But, it does appear to work.

My Themes Don't Work, then do this:​

​

Included with this version of MIUI is ES File Explorer. You need this to get themes working correctly. SO:

1. Give yourself root permissions by using the app Permissions found in the folder Tools

2. Open ES File Explorer and give it root privileges in settings

3. Go to root then to /data/system

4. Create a folder titled "theme" thus you should have /data/system/theme

Themes will now work. This is a headache, and when I was looking at updater-script I see that it calls /tmp/busybox (not there) to create the folder "theme" but when I got to correct this and call up /system/xbin/busybox it rejects it like an organ transplant gone wrong. So, if anyone more skilled than I (which is many) feel inclined to fix that please do and shoot me a pm!! thanks.

2nd post is for additional files that are optional.

Please read this:​

Kernel included is 41g_RC2_5-0718 it is important to know several things. 1. This kernel so far is the only one that allows use of Governors and Schedulers while 2. allows for videos to work but 3. it has no recovery. To solve this load a current kernel from Chris41g's thread (see post two) and flash what you need to in recovery and boot back to MIUI then Odin 41g_RC2_5-0718 and you're good to go. If you don't mess with recovery except to flash a newer build then you're even better off ;)
