Just for anyone who's interested, I have a base KK4 build up with some build.prop tweaks, 7 lockscreens, 9 toggles, customization options, quick panel configurations, TouchWiz30 Launcher, TouchWiz widgets.. hacked sgh-i897 kk4 camera, take pics w/ power button... swype, bloat removed, most live wallpapers removed.

Also have an app flasher that will let you load some apps onto your phone. All of them are the free/unpaid versions. Lucky Patcher is added for patching of files SUCH AS: Enabling desktop media (like Hulu) on Android, removing ads (cause we all love ad blocking). Any use of the app is at YOUR discretion and any bad use of it should not reflect on my providing it. Now, with that said, enjoy your apps.

Any comments just let me know.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
I might give it another try. I did boot up jf6 because that's how you run master clear. Only it didn't clear anything. I think it hung or failed to even start. Once I got miui installed and the nandroid backup restored I called it a day.

Would the debugger show anything helpful?
[Captivate Android Development] :
Enable Debugging and when you hook it up on Jf6, make sure the screen is unlocked and do not mount the SDcard. Press master clear and let it run.
[Captivate Android Development] :
There's a calibration issue with the AppFlasher. Need to fix it and will re-upload to the server! You can still get through it using your power button and up down vol keys.
[Captivate Android Development] Jolufa:
Ok, thank you. Downloading now.

Flashing in a few of minutes.

Salu2
[Captivate Android Development] :
Let me know how it goes becuase after a while of running the rom, and especially when using EXT4 as the lagfix option it just DIES and won't respond. Not sure what's going on...
[Captivate Android Development] kwikrat:
Arisenhavok, what is the difference between the CypherV2_ML build and the standard one? I re-read your OP, but I didn't see anything mentioning it. It has been a couple of days since I have re-rommed so I am starting to get the shakes. LOL

Edit: nevermind. I found it. Multilanguage.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Just a note to everyone. I have my Test UCKK4 2.3.5 build up for testing, a XXJVU build, a JellyBean MIUIAndroid MIUI rom, and now I'm uploading the port of the MIUI.US rom. :)

Enjoy!
[Captivate Android Development] :
No replies, questions, suggestions, anything? Darn.. tough crowd.
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
Hi, what is the difference between MIUIAndroid MIUI and MIUI.US ROMs?

BTW, downloading right now.

thanks!!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Both MiuiAndroid and MIUI.US take the original chinese MIUI roms and translate them into english. Beyond that, there is some tweaks and customizations made where possible. I can say older themes don't apply correctly on MIUI.US roms but do apply on MIUIAndroid roms for some reason. In the early days MIUIAndroid and MIUI.US were one entity but due to some internal conflicts, they had split up.

You may find more information by looking at the changelogs between MIUIAndroid and MIUI.US roms.

That is only what I can recall from memory at this time and is not 100% fact.
[Captivate Android Development] :
It's science fact. :) There are some customization option differences, and some other differences between the two roms. some prefer one, some prefer the other... I will say, however, that I ported it as an option for all. I still prefer MIUIAndroid. :)
[Captivate Android Development] thuanngotau:
What is inside your UCKK4 2.3.5 test build? Could you be more specific?
[Captivate Android Development] Jolufa:
And the MIUI.US ROM isn't multilang... Isn't?

I'm trying to test the ROM KK4 and JVU without a working internal memory. I could not. I have not gotten a correct recovery with support for loading the ROM file from the microSD...

F******g emmc bug. :p

Salu2
[Captivate Android Development] :
I know there's a clockwork recovery that allows install of ROM from External SD...
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Look at that, Odin JF6 and Network in About phone says AT&T!!! Hoping the EFS backup will carry over onto Jelly Bean Miui successfully!
[Captivate Android Development] :
:D If it doesn't, just copy the EFS folder from your external card or desktop and paste it over the existing /efs, and fix permissions on the files to ensure they are read properly by the system.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Doing my updating slowly but yeah, adb pull /efs on a rooted phone with USB Debugging installed immediately after running ODIN JF6 and verifying the Network/IMEI is intact. Installed MiuiAndroid 9.7 and everything restored smoothly.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Glad everything's going good for you now! :) hopefully we nipped that in the butt
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Some weird things, the keyboard did not want to pop up and somehow it started working after a reboot. Then the google account sync settings were no where to be found on the settings menu. Reboot and it showed up. Otherwise I think I'm good to run this rom for a day or two.

-Thanks, makes me miss the old old MIUI rom installs that backup /efs haha! From not having to do this each week or so I got lazy and wanted stuff to be easy!
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Now this is strange, gmail trying to read contact list if denied will exit to the home screen.
[Captivate Android Development] jaxwithanx:
I'm a Google Voice user....typically on most ROM's my phone log displays the correct information for my contact in my call log. But this ROM will only display the unique DAN number Google Voice uses to reach them....instead of what I have saved for them in my phone.

It's not a massive issue but it makes my phone log pretty useless. I'm sure it has something to do with the dialers. Anyone know of a fix....a different dialer I could flash that may alleviate?
[Captivate Android Development] jmtheiss:
Just wanted to say that this rom is running really well for me - good job!

I'm having this same issue, but only with numbers that I dialed. If it's a call I make from one of my contacts, the name/number shows up properly.
[Captivate Android Development] jaxwithanx:
Yeah, otherwise this is by far the best working ROM I've found for this POS Captivate. What's odd is if someone calls me, I get their regular number, contacts included...their name comes up. But any number I call out, even if it is from my contacts, I get the DAN in my log.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Seems related to reading the contacts DB, text messages show up "from" the number instead of the Contact Name.
[Captivate Android Development] jaxwithanx:
There is no issue with my text messages. I receive my messages through GV, on my GV number and there are no issues. This is a ROM-specific occurrence. I was on a different ROM testing just a few days ago and everything was fine. Came back to this build and once again....
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Apparently when I first restored my contacts I didn't check because I lost my contacts for some reason which caused the behavior I described. Restored contacts and all is well.

You may want to check into using another text message app to test that out.
[Captivate Android Development] jaxwithanx:
Do you use Google Voice?
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Google Voice? Nope.
[Captivate Android Development] Z1nK:
can someone please explain to me ,what are the differences between cypher,cypher ml, and cypher us.? i know they are based on diff miui builds,but what is different? i see cypher ml has the most downloads.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Cypher is the English and Chinese build. The one most likely to have the least amount of issues, port from Miui Android.

Cypher ML is the Cypher Multi-Language build also from MIUI Android. Languages are listed into he first few posts.

Miui us is the Miui.us build from their site port. It has some different customization options, in my opinion isnt as snappy but most times people should check experience for themselves.

:) All use Devil 1.4.1 kernel Voodoo Color and UCKG3 modem
[Captivate Android Development] Z1nK:
thank you for your answer, I must also apologize because i've found the same questions few pages before.

I have problems with phone app. I can receive calls but cant make them. it just stops. I'm using miui android.

Btw I will try your kk4 build cause I miss good old gingerbread roms.everyone is now o ICS and JB and you dont even have full flash support for those.
[Captivate Android Development] :
My recommendation on GB is the xxjvu build. It's snappy
[Captivate Android Development] Z1nK:
I will try it today :)

do you happen to know anything about the phone issue im experiencing?
[Captivate Android Development] :
Wipe and reinstall because you're the first person to experience this. Also did you restore anything?
[Captivate Android Development] mjkute:
waiting 2.9.14, your rom's so good
[Captivate Android Development] :
I'll start working on it ;)
[Captivate Android Development] nelson2006:
WhatsApp Messenger?

I'm sorry but does anyone have problems trying to install WhatsApp Messenger from PlayStore? I'm getting the following message: "Your device isn't compatible with this version". Any solution, please?

[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
The miuiAndroid music player seems to forget its settings. Will try another apk later.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Is this on the latest version? And have you modified anything? Music player issue was fixed for me
[Captivate Android Development] b0bfath3r:
I've been having that issue too. I'm running Cypher v2. I just deal with it.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Yup miui android v9.7. No mods.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Quick update: Errors, bugs, issues. Lots of them.

Long update: So I ported the 2.9.14 build from the I9000 (Andy Thompson's rom) and... it's god awful, and it's not his fault. You have to register a Xiaomi account to even get into the rom, provided you don't already have one... keyboard visualization is off regardless of the LatinIME.apk... Icons are two times the size as they should be, some menu items are missing... I mean, it's just all wrong. And I give him props for trying to release it.

This is where I ported it myself straight from the Nexus S... same issues. It seems he was unable to fix these issues, and although I've tried for the past few days to fix some of these issues, it's above my head becuase of MIUI and their new releases. Soooooo... my short answer to all this is - I don't get paid enough for this. And that's not why I started porting the rom. I'll quote Andy: "To anyone stupid enough to pick this project up (MIUI to the SGS), I'll help where I can". Officially discontinued at 2.7.x, unofficially discontinued at 2.9.7.

Look to NYGFAN if you want NEW MIUI, although I don't know how well he will fare, hopefully better than Andy and I (however, he was using Andy's rom as a base (to my knowledge)) so I don't think it will go far.

On that note, I will begin working on another project... and will post back here and direct you to the new thread when I have something. :)
[Captivate Android Development] Jolufa:
Well, I hope to see you again around here then.

Are you going to give some advancement about this new project? :D

Salu2
[Captivate Android Development] :
I'm not 100% sure on whether it will be CyanogenMod based, XXJVU based or UGKK4 based. I do have two test roms up.. so if anyone uses them comment back and let me know what you like and what can be improved. Cypher v3 is up for anyone that wants to try it.

Let me know!
[Captivate Android Development] :
Its also up in the air as to whether or not I may join a dev team in their efforts. In my spare time I will try to fix some miui issues and update it, but unofficially its axed. Check back for updates on miui but I make no promises
[Captivate Android Development] Jolufa:
If for every download of the ROM, will donate U$S 1, surely have a much better chance of continuing development and why not, help to pay and keep the hosting. Is not it? :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
For the Music player not saving preferences, in the debugger I saw this:

E/SharedPreferencesImpl ]

Couldn't create directory for SharedPreferences file /data/data/com.miui.player/shared_prefs/com.miui.player_preferences.xml

Perms are rwx------ (chmod 444), changed to match the other folders (chmod 667) and rebooted.

Pretty sad news if I am honest regarding the changes in Miui by Xiaomi. Taking an open source ROM and trying to make it commercial.
[Captivate Android Development] kevinnol:
so no more cypher :/ ...
[Captivate Android Development] b0bfath3r:
Sad day. :(
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Please, no need to quote large posts to make a reply.

If the project were ended, this thread would be closed.

Right now I consider the project on hold until the bugs/issues get resolved. That could happen next week or even longer.

[GENERAL RANT]

Meaning, lend a hand. Offer to debug issues, post logcats of issues. Making or waiting for one person to work out issues in an open source ROM in their free time... is selfish. [GENERAL RANT]
[Captivate Android Development] :
Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] zuN!:
I tried porting brad's MIUI.us latest ROM. For some reason it doesn't go past the kernel splash screen (using Devil). I double checked all the changes necessary for the port and it still doesn't work.

If you're still going to attempt to work on a port, best of luck :good:
[Captivate Android Development] :
Here's my problem with Nexus S Ports --> I can't change the RIL files in the framework dex file. So I can port it, and it works, but there's no signal. :/
[Captivate Android Development] HoangTuBot:
What about MIUI.us I9000 base. Have you try it yet?
[Captivate Android Development] :
Last I checked the miui.us version is still on 2.9.7. I will check again later today. I would do a direct nexus S port but until I get my Linux box up I can't do much with file alteration. :/
[Captivate Android Development] HoangTuBot:
Have you try go to Forum Discussion of SGS I9000?

http://heffsmods.com/counter/click.php?id=36
[Captivate Android Development] :
I saw. My girlfriend will kill me of I use our time together to port a rom hehehe so as soon as she takes off to work I can port it and see if it's not derpy.... Best case scenario is a release shortly after 3pm est today.

On a side note I fixed the weird home launcher issue and music app force closes.... As well as the permissions issue causing it to drop settings.
[Captivate Android Development] Jolufa:
Usually happens... HEHE :p

[Captivate Android Development] :
You have no idea how often I get yelled at ahaha.. Bad part is I still can't get the stupid initialize to go away and you can't get past it without a Xiaomi account. Fortunately I have one...
[Captivate Android Development] zuN!:
I tried out Andy's 2.9.14 today and everything is great besides Gallery and Music not detecting anything. Apollo (music app from CM10) also doesn't detect anything so the issue is probably within the media scanner.

I'm not trying to promote the non-MIUI ROMs, but you should try one of them out. The reason is MIUI seems sluggish for a JB ROM, and I have no idea why.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Look for the media scanner .so file and try an alternate from another rom. Debugging may give clues to why its not working.

Also lol at fixing music player settings not saving.
[Captivate Android Development] :
I'm a fan of non miui roms actually. Been using REMICS lately, while waiting for MIUI updates. Flashaholic...

porque lol? There was a hotfix released that was supposed to have been applied to the nexus s version back in like 2.9.4 or so, but it was still an issue post hotfix.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Continues to go to an "Account has been suspended" page.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
A Hotfix you say? I didn't know that, I only went LOL because I got annoyed enough by that problem I looked in the debugger and saw it was a simple to fix problem then posted what I found here. Just a misunderstanding on my part!
[Captivate Android Development] :
Not at all I'm glad you looked... yeah they saw the issue previously and I guess the hotfix was only for one version or they forgot to keep it in there... not sure. Anyone have a mirror for the miui.us version, I can't download it.
[Captivate Android Development] HoangTuBot:
It still works fine for me.

http://heffsmods.com/counter/click.php?id=36

Or you can download it via some proxy :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] :
Of course it works now -.- it kept saying suspended earlier.

Let's get to work!
[Captivate Android Development] :
Update to come shortly with a .us based Cypher. Updated kernel and such... I broke my development phone, as it will not wipe/format /system now.. and the usb is broken so I cannot ODIN it back to health. :/ So essentially I am stuck bootlooping to recovery as it won't boot at all.

Fml...

Will have to play it by ear from now, until I get the money to send it to MobileTechVideos to have it repaired.

Check the link for the new download in about an hour!
[Captivate Android Development] HoangTuBot:
The reason?

Because of the ROM, or kernel, or just you?
[Captivate Android Development] :
No idea. My phone was functional, working on a rom.. booted to recovery, went to wipe data/factory reset and received a "E: ........ make_ext4fs failed to format /dev/...../userdata .. i don't remember it all off the top of my head, and now i can't wipe data, load a rom, load a nandroid backup.... nothing.

After fiddling with this f*!#ing rom for the past 3 hours... It boots. It doesn't have the stupid Xiaomi requirement. And it's awesome.

Download 3.1.4 now!
[Captivate Android Development] BTRL30NTM:
3.1.4 is the same one as cypher 3.1 on the downloading site ? Just a little confused.
[Captivate Android Development] kevinnol:
thank you :highfive:
[Captivate Android Development] :
Just as I typed it my connection to the ftp server died.. I have to wait for it to come back up to re-upload... it will be listed as 3.1.4... hold please >.<

Only comment I have to make for now, is the only issue I see is the PICTURE of the keyboard... it's messed up. The keys are in the correct place but the image is all sorts of screwed.. I attempted to fix... I would put an apk of a keyboard you like to use on your sdcard and install it asap in order to function.

This will be remedied as soon as I can.
[Captivate Android Development] BTRL30NTM:
I see, no wonder I was looking for 3.1.4 and no where to be found lol. Its cool I'll wait and thanks for your hard work.

Not sure what to tell you, I havn't had any issues with the usb transfer speed.. neither has NYGFan on his rom.

Plus.. don't use Devil Kernel 1.5.2, it's broke.

Use 1.4.2 or 1.4.1, as 1.4.1 is pre-installed on the rom.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Not sure if you heard but MiuiAndroid tells me they have been working on a method to make porting a SIMPLE process. Someone was saying to make a port took them 1 minute (lolololol suspect they are a developer so yeah it would be easy for them). Once I get my S2 fully running as I want it, I'll throw this on the (heavy sigh) retired Captivate.
