Don't give up now. Try one more time. Wiping cache, system and data is critical as well.

@branalvere, many thanks for helping and answering the doubts and questions. Really appreciate what you are doing. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] branalvere:
Sorry man it's beyond me too. I've bricked my SGS about 5 times but always managed to recover it by flashing back to stock and starting again.

If that doesn't work maybe something is wrong with your phone....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dr.bahaeddin:
thx a dozen my friend. i also bricked my phone countless times. it doesn't worry me if i can get my phone to download mode :) anyway i'll find a way in a short time. thx again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dr.bahaeddin:
i tried CM7_GT-I9000_kernel_kang_20110327_16_update.zip right now. but i doesn't boot my phone either.

could u guide me which one should i use of zacharias maladroit's kernel?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Many thanks galnet, for trying it and sharing this tip with us. Appreciate it. :) Haha... it's good that you have challenged my thinking. We will go far. :D

Is profiles in Setcpu working for anyone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Dear All,

I have been pm-ed to ask about using Swype. Anyone has gotten Swype to work on MIUI? The person who pm-ed said that Swype works for cm7 but doesn't work on MIUI. As I do not have any Swype installed, I am unable to answer.

Any kind soul can give some comments?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
I think somewhere along the line you might have deviated from the instructions.

There is no need to boot up after flashing the cm7 initial tar file via odin (see point5). The reason for this step is to get into cwm menu for the flashing of beta6 and beta7.

I am really interested to help you. Try the above again and let me know ok? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kangal:
Hey guys, just like a few of the people here, I'm having issues with 3G + telephony.

I cannot even dial 000/112/911 etc.

In Settings the Baseband shows: "Unknown".

My phone's Baseband/modem should be on JP3 and the CSC should be on XSA... if those mean anything to you.

I'm currently on rc1, what do I need to do?

1) Should I flash the latest kernel from Bilboa (CM7_GT-I9000_kernel_kang_20110330_04_update.zip) ??

2) Should I flash it from Odin, but with the corresponding JP3 ("Phone" in Odin) and XSA ("CSC" in Odin) ??

3) Then should I proceed and upgrade to rc2 through Recovery ??

Will it also fix my Wifi, cause right now my phone has no means to a data connection :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kangal:
Almost all Galaxy S's came with Swype. I don't think I've got a copy of it backed up, but legally speaking if you flash the same version of Swype that your phone came with: you haven't broken any laws.

This was posted by the moderators, but please do try to load it and report back on your success/failure. I will do this but I've got more important things to fix at this moment
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] drakegao:
yeah, since beta7, it started to slow down even the rc2 rom. hope it will be solved.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Hi, Ekin. :)

For your problems, refer to this single post for the solution. RC2 and RC1 does not have the modem.bin flash. This is considered as the cm7 nightlies equivalent. To get to RC2 first, you will need to flash a miui rom beta5 or beta6 that comes with the modem.bin. You will then be able to get your baseband back.

I believe I didn't make my post clear enough. Swype can always be downloaded from the Swype website, beta swype that is. All one need to do is to register and they will send you a link to download it.

My post was to find out if there are anyone who has working swype in MIUI, and if there is, how did they manage to get it working. Some tips for users would be nice. :)

P/S: Let me know if the above solve the issue for you. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] try:
Did STK (SIM Tool Kit) work in this rom?

TIA,
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zygame:
right,access your ext sd card by ftp or sshd will be better than usb mount,

another way is MIUI built-in file manager,it can help you to access your phone's storage via FTP,easy to use,without any 3rd party softs,more security.:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
yeah they're working for me.

yes it does :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kangal:
Thanks but it didn't work for me.

I tried beta 6 which pre-loads JPM ... mine needs JP3

I'm back to square one... any other ways?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kyclopes:
my auto rotation stops working when I change a theme even if I am on latest bilbao's kernel..have to flash the kernel again every time to make it work :(

any solution??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vinnnn3003:
@mambo04 it's not fair

say atleast once , come on india. just 3 more hr. cant wait
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kangal:
I uninstalled MIUI.

I re-installed my Doc's "shake n bake" ROM.

I re-installed the CM7 kernel.

I installed beta 6.

I installed RC2.

Things are working (wifi, 3G, phone), things are a little smoother (menus in settings), things are a little more stable (hasn't FC'd anything or rebooted itself)...But:

The front camera works better now (although still turned 90' to the right) and the back camera is still choppy. Progress seems like 95% finished, I can't wait until the last 5% :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Can you tell me a little more? What is it that is not working for you?

As to the baseband, it is not that critical to have the exact modem when you were in stock. I think right now the most important thing is to get your phone working like a phone first. At least now with Beta6, you have xxjpm and it is definitely better to have NO baseband right?

Next when you are in beta6, did you get any 3g signal first? Do the lock / unlock using your power button. Did you see the 3g signal on the top right hand corner?

Does the signal icon turn white?

Next check your sms centre number. Does it show any numbers or no numbers at all?

Next check your apn, are there any apns listed in the apn page? Do you have the select button icon?

If you have done it correctly, you should have all the 3. And if you do have them, then try calling some numbers. Does it connect? Can you converse with the other party?

When you have satisfied all the conditions, then its time to flash RC2 using the 3button combo recovery.

Again check as per what you have done in beta6. And I strongly believe you do have that.

As to download problem, there are other ways like toggling the download app menu button and select 3g / wifi.

Would recommend if you want to download apps from Market, then try to use wifi first.

All the above when you are satisfied that it works, then we talk about the jp3 modem ok?

Let me know again, ok? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
haha.. excellent. you managed to get it working. I'm happy for you. :) front camera is a known fact that the image is 90 degree offset. No worries about that. Camera if you are using miui camera, it is buggy. Google aosp camera app would be more better.

Try downloading apps from market. Test out the download as well. see if it works. Then you can start exploring the wonders of MIUI.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
g00nduuuuuuu tell me a good video player i can use please :)

i tried moboplayer but for some reason it couldn't find my videos. and i tried mvideoplayer but it was wayyy too laggy :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
i am still using bilboa's kernel dated 27mar. no problem with rotation. not sure if latest bilboa1 kernel breaks that or not.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
I didn't even have a chance to download any video player yet, as i have not watch any movies at all, not even when i'm stock. :o

But you can try Rockplayer as well, understood it is quite good. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cutefox:
not sure whats wrong but, i found the voice call volume too loud at the lowest.. is there anything i can use to change that? i tried going into engineering mode to play around using secret code but miui dialer cannot invoke them.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
vinn3003,

you managed to solve your issue? i hope you did. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
tried it. it's lagging too :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
engineering mode i believe is samsung stuff, and since the rom is based on cm7, all samsung stuff will be unable to use.

as to your problem, maybe you can try your volume button during a call?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
maybe try moboplayer again, and play around with the settings?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cutefox:
im not sure if u are being smart or not but obviously when i am resorting to engineering mode, i would have played around with volume button for sure!! its at its lowest and it still sounded like my whole office can hear my phone conversation.. any other ideas i can use based on cm7 then?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kyclopes:
thanks for the reply g00ndu :)

I was also using the 27mar kernel only..switched to 29th one hoping that the issue will be solved but no success yet..:(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Prasad:
Alright then. So if I flash all the way back to RC2 from a stock Samsung froyo ROM, messaging should work fine?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
lol wow. i reinstalled it and it started working xD it lags too though but much less than the rest of them. so i guess it'll do for now. thanks :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
You should try it. :) Since he has given a suggestion that is logical. No harm trying right?

i know the frustration of going through over and over and over again. but just don't just give up. if it works, then you gain some knowledge, if it doesn't we think of other ways. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Preetish_cool:
Which firmwares would work with this rom?

Which firmwares would work with this rom?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kangal:
That seems to be the case for everyone.

Goto DSPManager > Phone Speaker > Enable equalizer

Then drag all the zeros on the graph down to about -3.0 but keep them all roughly the same. This will lower the volume on the loudspeaker for everything, fixing your problem. When you want to watch a movie and want to make it louder, go back here and just swipe it to disable. So its only one swipe to get it on/off.

Raising it/enabling bass boost seems to kill the quality a little bit, so I recommend not to do those.

I have a Nokia headset that I use, and its a little quite so I do the same trick (except I raise the "headset" equalizer) and this nifty trick is basically the same as the voodoo sound hack which takes proper use of the high-quality sound card inside the Hummingbird.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Good find! Seems you are getting familiar with the MIUI rom. Much better than my suggestion! This will come into the tips and tricks section. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
I'm not sure what you mean. But this is totally non-Samsung firmware. If you mean you want to try the rom, then your existing rom now should be a 2.2 or 2.2.1 rom (because of bootloader affecting the boot animation).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vinnnn3003:
i am on doc's kitchen at the moment & the performance is very satisfied. i have not tried miui again but just following the thread every day because it is one of the beautiful rom i ever seen. now RC2 released, so i am tempting to go. once done, will let u know.

thanks for your kind support
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hacksome:
Except for the following glitches - this excellent ROM has become my daily driver since Beta6 :-

1) Tasker based Mobile Data Switching on Display Off/On does not work

2) Camera is not as good as the stock one

OC and UVd, the battery life is not terrible either.

how can i install the lock screen theme from op?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] freakfingers12:
Anyone else facing issues with Titanium Backup? Some apps/games, usually in random order, cannot be restored properly. It is notified that the app is restored successfully but the app is actually not restored and it is still grayed out.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] branalvere:
Goondu, have you missed a step in those instructions? I was under the impression that betas 5/6 needed a bilboa kernel to get boot
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] branalvere:
This happened to me too. Worked after a reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Hmmm, I don't think so. AFAIR, beta5 and beta6 comes with kernel (zImage), together with the modem.bin.

:)

Edit: Flashing the bilboa's kernel was meant for RC1 actually. Kenia1234 when packing the rom, he has missed out some of the modules. Bilboa's kernel solved that issue.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jassired:
Do a factory reset from recovery and restore again from titanium....it should work.

This happens when you directly flash from Beta 6/7 to RC2 with out data wipe

the finals? Sri Lanka and which country? :D

Would be interesting! :)

Edit: Nvrmind, I know already. The same intensity like Man U vs Liverpool! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kangal:
Thanks! Here's another trick.

When on the lockscreen; double-tap the clock quickly and just above it you automatically get the music controls. You can double tap to hide the controls again. It displays the album cover, pause/play, skipback/rewind(hold), skipahead/fastforward(hold).

Its very responsive and beautifully made with the equalizer dancing in the background. It saves you ample time when you're on the go (especially for pause/play and skipping songs).

Really loving this new 2.3 MIUI Player: It shows lyrics!!! :D

If I could make one adjustment, it would be to get the music controls in the notification bar like Samsung's stock, and/or support those buttons on headsets (eg Nokia N95) that have the microphone and music controls.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kangal:
No you don't need it. I tried with and without and there is basically no difference. There might be an updated one in the future that might be better than the stock kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
haha wow. thats so awesome. thanks :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Stupendousman:
Have the same Problem...

Cant see my external Sd card inside the phone with root explorer...

Removed the external Sd and inserted it again... no change...

flashed the CM7_GT-I9000_kernel_kang_20110329_03_update... no change...

tried the sd in my old magic... it works...

i have no clue what to try next?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Prasad007, I believe I know what is causing your problem. I believe you may not have modem.bin in your phone.

Please follow the instructions as per this post from 0 to the last step. I am certain you will have no problems on your sms issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
If you feel offended, then I'm sorry. Not meant to be insulting. Was genuinely concern. Yes, it is obvious, but sometimes obvious solutions are not too obvious, really. I can cite examples where a kernel developer was having problems with the tv animation activated. He thought he might have done something wrong, but someone just told him to turn on the animation and he just realized it.

Nevertheless, ekin had provided a much better solution than me. If you find it useful, at least please thank him for the tip.

P/S: I'm :cool:

Runedrune, I agree that if we could control music from lock screen like cm7 this would be a 110% quality rom.....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kibaa12:
the only thing im not liking is 24hour time on lockscreen is there a way to change it to 12hours am/pm

and also is there a way to Video Call?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cutefox:
Thanks Ekin, though i still find it pretty loud even when i drag mine all the way down to -10.. quite akward when your phone calls are the ones your work colleagues shouldnt be listening into..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cutefox:
thats alright. i was just pretty stressed at work and this kind of answers really kills the nerves!! still no luck thou.. maybe i just have superhuman hearing?!?! O_o i also tried flashing both JPY and JVK radio.. both are also changes nothing..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] db7777:
is there a odin or cwm version?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dr.bahaeddin:
dude, believe me i did everything correctly a million times. look i'll repeat my problem.

i flash JPU with re-partition. it's done. and i flash CM7 initial 18.03. it works perfectly. but when i update cm7 it doesn't boot. so i flash initial-kernel phone boots but the only problem is wifi got error.

it's cm7 problem i think and in every update there is this problem. i tried every solution but nothing works. so i use cm7 with initial one.

with MIUI i flash miui as shown as above. when phone reboots it doesn't boot. so i flash cm7-initial-kernel again. phone boots this time and wifi got error. everything is fine.

so what do u think about my problem? please give me a real solution man :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
The 12/24hr format you can change under the clock setting. But there won't be any am / pm indicated.

Sorry there is no video call at the moment. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Take care of every step, and rebooting into CWR with 3 button combo is a must. What I know from being in CM7 and now MIUI, is that sometimes things can go wrong, but if you follow instructions perfectly, it will be ok. So if you have problems, my best guess is you missed some step, because the rest of users haven't the issues you said.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dr.bahaeddin:
how many times i have to repeat this: i did every step correctly million times man stop saying you'r doin wrong!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
I didn't read all your posts, but do you only have problems with wifi? If so, did you try to flash bilboas latest kernel?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
When you say the phone reboot, it doesn't boot. Please explain a little clearer. You were stuck in a bootloop? it stays on the samsung screen, it stays at the cyanogenmod screen? the screen stayed black? or what?

A couple of times when i boot up my phone, i do encounter a black screen. The sensor buttons do work. I did not reboot again. I waited for a while, and try to press the home, select and back button (in random order), try pressing the power button (lock / unlock button) and played around with the buttons some more. Finally, the lock screen wallpaper appears, and I am able to use the phone again.

Now, if you say you do exactly what is written (both here and cm7), then there shouldn't be any problems at all. I know this isn't a cm7 or miui problem, because the users here and I think also in cm7 do not have a problem like yours.

Please help us to help you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
the wifi error comes when he flash the cm7 initial kernel. He's able to get up to the stage of the cm7_initial.zip (the zip that is needed when you are on samsung rom). He just couldn't update to other update zips, ie, the nightlies. cos he said that when he update it, the phone won't boot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
pacoforet! you managed to recover your phone? even after flashing some bad files?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dr.bahaeddin:
it stays on the samsung screen. after that it cames sgs screen with cyanogenmod. it's only 2-3 secs between these two screens right? so my phone never get this screen.

i've seen exactly same problem and waitied as you say it's not the problem.

i saw some people bothering this problem. i contacted them and their solution didn't work either. i'm about to get crazy. my english is so bad. i think it's the main problem haha
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dr.bahaeddin:
yes that's exactly my problem. i flash cm7-initial-kernel.tar to boot up my phone. it works. my phone boots but there is only one problem. it's wifi got error. then at this stage i get into recovery and install bilbao's kernel and reboot. Upsss phone doesn't boot again. stuck at first sgs screen. this is the problem. only problem is wifi not working :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] oalexandru.0620:
No service

Hello guys,

i just flashed RC 2 and no mobile network, no calls, no data. everything else looks good.

any ideas ? and if this was answered a while back am sorry for duble posting :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
ok. so you are able to go up to the cm7 initial zip dated 18/03 right? And everything is working right? no wifi error right?

if so please proceed up to that step.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacoforet:
Yeah! JVK was a ***** upgrading my bootloader xD Flashed JS5 bootloader in Odin -> cm7initialkernel.tar -> wipe /data, /system, /cache -> flash MIUIRC1. Profit.

It was all about the bootloader.

Now im running MIUIRC1, very impressive. Btw, flashing RC2 will wipe my apps and data right?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dr.bahaeddin:
yes at this stage everthing works perfect. wifi works perfectly. known bugs like FM radio etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
yup it was answered before. to cut it short, just after format system, cache and data and before flashing RC2, YOU GO FLASH beta5 or beta6. After flashing beta5 or 6, reboot, check for connections like apn, baseband, 3g icon etc...

if all okay, then reboot using 3button combo. once in cwm recovery, then you flash RC2.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
No, it won't wipe. But freakfingers12 reported problem of tb not restoring properly and someone suggested to wipe / factory reset to resolve the problem.

You go figure. :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] farooknaji:
I'm wondering the same. I just flashed, after following g00ndu's instructions to the tee. All went fine, but after wiping system, data, cache and then flashing miui beta 6 via cwm, the MIUI Android boot screen has been flashing for about 15 minutes. Not sure what to do now...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] oalexandru.0620:
Thank you for the quick answer and sorry again for double posting. it seems that it fixed itself, after i waited about for 5 min (waiting for a reply from someone X_X hoping that i didn't fry my sim or something - yeah i panic easily when it comes to my phone ) i got signal and everything is working right, including data.

Thank you :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
Are you on cm7 now? i will give you post by post instructions.

Hello,

Any idea when the issue with the Front camera will be fixed? Maybe RC3 soon?

I'm using the application Oovoo, and well, it does not work, since the front camera is not working.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
@farooknaji and ilan_75,

This is a bootloop. try to format data, system and cache again. if it doesn't work, it means that you did not use the 3 button combo (vol up + middle button + power button) to go into recovery. You will need to do it again. Sorry guys.
