Will the update tomorrow contain the EFS Backup Script?

Also, I am currently on RC3vB.. When I revert to RC2, should I flash back to Stock ROM first, then do the whole process then flash RC2 and then format data, cache, and system and install rc3-c (or latest miui rom)?

Anyone?​
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Can't expect much yet.. this isn't even the 'Official Stable' ROM yet. Still alot of bugs.. "Its like you're expecting an old broken car to function like a brand new one with all the extras and hp"..
[Captivate Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
FYI:

Kernel release name: Rocketeer (same-day release like for the SGS - GT-i9000)

Changelog:

for discussions please refer to its own thread:

[Kernel][CM7] Platypus (4/08) Voodoo, OC/UV, LED notification

thanks !
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
People are saying the rom is fast, well it sure as **** not showing me that. Unless overnight the definition of fast and slow were changed in the lower 48, because slow in Hawaii is still slow.

All that I'm expecting is for the rom to perform with expectation of being semi-functional. Apparently when its not 'officially stable' I can't be disappointed. Forgive me for not being all on this rom's nuts as you seem to be.

[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
No you just need to have the efs script in the version your flashing over.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
You don't have to go back to rc2 if ur already on miui or cm7. That's only if ur brand new to the rom
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
This rom has different problems for different people, its not fully functional yet. Its insanely awesome for the majority of the people who have gotten it to almost fully work. If you want a hundred percent guarantee that everything on this rom will work before you flash it then you should wait untill a fully working release is out. Their will most likely be a new release tomorrow, you can see for yourself tomorrow if its worth flashing again or not.
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Lol, no need to take offense and say that last comment.

I think its a user problem, because this ROM is fine to me.

Don't like it? Then flash something else instead of ****ting on these dev's hard work.
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Makes sense. Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Different strokes for different folks. Move on. I have been around nearly from the beginning of this phone and this thread. This particular thread is as friendly and helpful as any I have frequented. If you do not like miui there is no issue with that, just dont come here and be combative
[Captivate Android Development] codeblue315:
Sometimes certain ROMs work better than others on completely different phones. I use MIUI, it's relatively fast to me, nothing spectacular and mind-blowing, but fast enough for me. However other people prefer other ROMs just because those work better on their particular phones. It's all on personal preference, which is what makes this all so fun. :)
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Okay.. so I did all that.. and now I am on RC3vC.. But, I somehow lost 'root'?

Does anyone know how to root it again? Can I just use the same method I use to root before? The 'SuperOneClick' or is that not able to work on these CM7 roms?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
If your still having trouble with the rom we'll be more than happy to help you :D
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
How do you know you lost root?
[Captivate Android Development] soypoi:
I said I wasnt seeing the speed y'all were talking about. Someone responds rudely to me and that's ok? Did I not state in my earlier post that I'm really trying to like it? My apologies for nit having a glowing experience straight away.

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
No need for apologies your entitled your opinion.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Just give it another try dude, there's gonna be a new update tomorrow so check the thread out and see if its worth it.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Kenia has been saying the last couple days that the next update will decrease lag
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
maybe we'll even get lucky and whatever is causing all of the weird sensor issues will be resolved. not holding my breath just yet tho
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
It says so, when I use TiBu and Root Explorer.

Edit: So, I applied some themes and Rebooted, and I magically am rooted again. That was weird!
[Captivate Android Development] wattx:
Still never got my market back to normal. :/
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
I read somewhere that you just have to clear data in Market, Market Updater, and I think some other stuff, and then you just Reboot, and it solves the problem.

Thats what I did and it worked for me.
[Captivate Android Development] g00ndu:
Well, I'm from the i9000 forum. Allow me to say a few words. :)

I think we all agree that we want the best out of the phone, regardless of what brand, model and type. Everyone buys their phone based on their needs, perhaps not a 100% fit, but nevertheless as close as possible. Everyone has a set of their own requirements, and this is where the developers come into play, teamhacksung especially, when they have completely re-written the whole rom from scratch, and of course the MIUI-Developers who has designed the ui based on user experience.

This rom is free to use, and it is up to the users to decide if this rom is suitable for them enough to become their daily drivers. If users wants a fantastic camera application that rivals the current Samsung one, then this rom is not for you. If users wants the widest range of codecs like the Samsung one, then again this rom is not for you as well. To me, I will never compare the features of this rom with the Samsung based rom, because both roms are totally different in nature. You win some, you lose some.

For those who have tried to use this rom, and found some bugs or problems, you are encouraged to highlight them. Whether they can be solved is another matter because users may not have encountered those problems before and hence unable to offer any solution. And even when solutions were offered, it is not always that the issues will be resolved at all. There is no need to get upset or angry. Alternatively, you can always try to resolve them on your own, and if you managed to do that, share it wth the fellow users here, so that they can learn from your experiences. And if you have exhausted all means of trying to resolve them, and up to a point whereby you simply cannot live with those issues present, one can always flash back to another rom where it will give you the lesser of 2 devils. :)

Problems, issues and bugs will always be there, and some of those may never be able to solve at all. Can we live with those issues? The answers lies not with the developers and the fellow users, but it lies within yourself.

I only hope everyone continue to share what they have learned, so that the rom can keep on improving.

Now start enjoying your phone instead of getting frustrated with it. :)

My 2cents worth of thoughts.

P/S: And I think Mossination is cool! :D
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
That was perfect G00ndu!!!
[Captivate Android Development] wattx:
You are my hero of the week! Thanks so much!
[Captivate Android Development] phat_cow:
How do I enable HSPA again after flashing to this rom? And my recovery somehow lost a few options like lagfix thing. How do I get that back? Sorry I'm new to this :(
[Captivate Android Development] g00ndu:
I presume that you have disabled your hspa when you are on speedmod and samsung rom. If that's the case, you would need to flash back to a samsung rom and enable it from there before going through the process of flashing it again.

Also, this is a totally new rom, nothing like what you have before. And the cwm is the latest version 3, not the older one 2.5. There is no tweaks, and certainly no need to get your phone lagfix, as the partitions are either yaffs2 or ext4.

Hope this helps. :)
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
if you have just flashed it...then it will take some time to get H icon back...it will show 3g for some time...but dont worry after some time H will come back...unless you have disabled it before flashing this rom my using magic codes..you should enable hsdpa before flashing any 2.3 rom...its there in basic instruction of cm
[Captivate Android Development] ease_the_pain:
GUYS how do they can get this Signal Bar icons? Stock signal bar never changes on mine!

MOD EDIT Why quoting the whole image?
[Captivate Android Development] xnoctis93:
howcome when i select themes in the manager such as M9, it shows as if all is going fine but when i get back to my homescreen, nothing has changed...stays at basic theme default with no lockscreen change etc
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Did you apply the theme? The phone will reboot once the theme is applied. And the lockscreen won't change because most of the themes don't have the new lockscreen.
[Captivate Android Development] xnoctis93:
i apply it and when it re-loads up, its back to stock theme. Also, my dialer has a bit of the theme for the numbers but they are cut off and incomplete. I tried the cartoon theme and that seemed to work though...
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Which theme, font expect lock screen to change
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
No problem buddy! Glad you got it working again.. Hit the thanks button!! lol
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
RC4 is up!

Uploading a Captivate Version...
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Captivate RC4

- JK4 modem/Platypus kernel

- Working auto rotate

- Phone ID is still i9000

Link removed since fixes are coming soon!

*Compatibility Mode is broken in RC4.*

MIUI Music Player and parts of MIUI Backup have a new look

Android Honeycomb Music Player has been added.

MIUI Rom downloader added - No Captivate rom version

"Sending..." is gone from the text messages

Applications is gone from pulldown menu

Pulldown defaults to Notifications when there is one, other wise it goes to Toggles.

Pull down left to Notifications and pull down right to Toggles is gone.

Wifi/Data/Signal icons added to the pulldown menu

AT&T@ might be fixed, I had it earlier but it changed to AT&T. Will have to reboot a couple of times to see.

[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Is the efs update script in this version?
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
I'm curious of how long it will take for this to BLOW UP!!!

RC4 is pretty much a small update, right?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Click on Choose theme, which will show your current one, and there will be a tab for online themes.
[Captivate Android Development] steelechamp:
Click theme manager>Choose theme>Online theme>browse and download.
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
I'm getting a force close on file manager every time...makes it impossible to import themes

Also, battery on beta 4 was way better with the same kernel (kang) and modem
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
My wi-fi quit working today.. keeps looping on "connecting to "router"...

Edit - Fixed itself apparently ..
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
File Manager or File Explorer. File Manager is fine for me, whereas File Explorer forces closes on me.

If it is File Explorer (which is what Theme Manager uses), then you can use File Manager or Root Explorer and move the themes to MIUI -> themes and then it will show up on Theme Manager.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Turn prox sensor off. Use power button to turn screen off. Works for me
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
Sorry yeah, it was file explorer...not a huge deal, as I like the stock look.

Thanks for the info
[Captivate Android Development] alec5216:
Awesome! Extremely fast and snappy.

Anybody having trouble with SMS Popup? It shows, but the popup is blank.

Also, the failure to recognize the SD card for changing notifications etc is a known bug, right?

EDIT: After mounting and unmounting my sd card, I can now change ringtones/view gallery etc.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Have to unmount/mount on every reboot
[Captivate Android Development] alec5216:
Is there a way to do that without a usb cable?
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
Go into settings, storage , then hit unmount sdcard, then remount sdcard.

Also, this is looking pretty nice, first thing in a month in a half that's made me want to leave CM. :p
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Yes insysytem settings. Mounting inside phone not to pc
[Captivate Android Development] kingfisher1111:
Guys,

what about Beta 6. It's already released for 9000's series.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
It's 1.3.18 beta 6 - beta 5.
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
Where do you see a beta 6 released?

And if it is you just flash over the current set up you have.

Then reflash the Captivate kernel and modem
[Captivate Android Development] biggem001:
Great rom, a little laggy and not ready. The features are pretty cool, just most not fully functional which takes away from the rom.

I definitely like the UI, but again, it seemed laggy (which will only improve as bugs get worked out)

in a few more versions i could see this rom's major bugs getting worked out and becoming very usable.
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
I am using "TheEscapist" CM7 kernel and have no lag at all. Occasionally the ROM has frozen on me but overall it is very different from what we are used to having. It is very iPhoneish with the folder system but it works. I tried to load a theme but it didn't take and after unmounting/remounting the SD card I got all my music but the gallery still doesn't show. All things aside it is fun trying another GB ROM!
[Captivate Android Development] nammyczc:
I tried installing Segnaros package through clockwork and it gave me error on radio flash write raw image status 7 any fix for this?
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Holy crap its full of awesome! And bugs! But I'm loving it like I love McDonald's. (Buh buh buh buh buh)
[Captivate Android Development] Segnaro:
Did you odin the CM7 initial kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Just to give some a preview

Pull down background is not stock
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Looks good!!!

Plus your theme is coming right a long!!!

If you don't mind me adding what I think. I think it would look better if you changed the icons in the settings.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Yeah, Kenia is uploading a RC4b with some fixes so I will edit that one and upload it.

Also auto rotate is still borked, still does the working, not working thing.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Have not bothered fixing yet but yes rotation stopped after applying theme
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Mine stopped after my second reboot without applying a theme.

Also the AT&T@ popped up again.

Downloading RC4b right now.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Cleared cache abd davlik, reflashed kernel. Rotation working
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Uploading RC4b right now.

[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Did u guys also clear datadata like kenia said in one of his posts on the i9000 thread (in addition to cache, system, and data)?

Testing it now.
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Downloading Rc4b now.
[Captivate Android Development] vietn95:
any change log on rc4?
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Is this the new RC4 one? How come it wasn't uploaded on sourceforge?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Cause none of us can add it. We make a Captivate version and then they add it to Sourceforge.
[Captivate Android Development] vietn95:
found the change log @ miui dev
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Oh okay!.. good thing I checked here then, I was scouting sourceforge all this time lol

Downloading now.. Hmm, saw some screenshots.. not a fan of the pull down menu background..

For the changelog: I was just getting used to the left and right side pull down method.

Did they fix the bug when you get a message and you go to it from the lockscreen, it shows a blank message box?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Anyone else test prototypes pack?
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Uploading another RC4b package with Kang Kernel, notification lights, and working auto rotation. JK4 modem.
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Hmm.. oh the RC4vB is a prototype pack?
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Is there a way to turn off the BLN?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Nevermind, we shall wait and see which package is the best.
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Rc4b

Newest Kang Kernel (includes notification lights and 1.3 OC)

Working Auto Rotation

Jk4 modem

Efs backup

[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
on RC3c, go settings -> system -> led settings -> pulae notification light.

I'm not sure if it turns off bln from kernel source or not but bln is offed by that..
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Thanks will give it a try!!
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Use tae's since his auto rotate is going to work since he's using Kang's. The platypus kernel is hit or miss with the auto rotate.
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
+1

10 chars
[Captivate Android Development] PeteSeiler2010:
So we can just flash this overtop of RC3c right? Just wipe?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Up and running everything working, my own package but we have enough of those. Now time to play
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Anyone willing to test? Anyone who is following the i9000 thread, does it look like they are going to release another update today?
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Yes. Download package

Go into recovery format system/data. Flash package. Format data.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Doesn't look like it.

Will this thing ever be a flashable zip? I never have the time to do all that lol. But id like to test it out
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
my auto rotate works fine with your package. Just flashed prototype159's package and ocd to 1300. screen rotation works just fine.
[Captivate Android Development] brd912:
Well tarter sause. Guess ill have to make time lol
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
It worked for me, I rebooted, still worked. Rebooted another time, it was gone. Couple of reboots later, it was back.

I just had a great idea! :eek:
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
It its not that bad
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Found a bug..

I always choose "Top-Bar" battery.. (One of the reasons why I like the MIUI ROM so much)..

And after I choose that option. The space where the 'previous battery icon was remains blank and isn't filled.. Will post a pic shortly if you guys don't know what i'm talking about..

Can this be fixed? Or is that gonna have to wait for the next update?

Edit: Came back! =(
[Captivate Android Development] brd912:
Well see I share a desktop with 4 computer junkies. One is addicted to facebook,one who uses it as an e-reader,one who stays on WOW,and one who likes to take surveys lol. So its hard to get more than 10 minutes on there. But I gotta laptop comin tomorrow or monday so maybe I can test it out then
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
can i use the older rc3b messing app. i like it better.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I would think so. pull old app out of package, paste in system app, reboot
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
doesn't work right. damn. i really liked having it look just like the iphone too. any suggestions. the new app has a grey background. is there anyway to change that at least. i know its minor but i have ocd when it comes to things like that.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Anyone use the link in first post and got everything working from it? Or did they have to flash different modem/kernel? Bout to see for myself so just wondering.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I was planning on looking into that myself. If I find something I will let you know
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
i like that top-bar indicator also.

I think i found a solution. Just switch battery indicator to percentage or graphical then back to top-bar after this simple step the blank will go away.

Edit. never mind. i think this bug related to the new notification bar. When i sCrolled down notification bar, blank came back again..
[Captivate Android Development] D-FUSE:
the miui back is just awesome
[Captivate Android Development] D-FUSE:
try making a flash zip for it

task i am going to sign the apk and install to see if that works

one more issue lol is there a way to turn down the keyboard volume for the android keyboard? Its almost obnoxiously loud :p
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Ya go to the texting app hit menu. Go to settings and set vibrate to always.

Note: this isn't always. If u turn off vibration from the pulldown it will go off
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
U could go settings, personal, input, and turn sound off for the keyboard. Dunno if u can edit volume u want it on tho
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
just wondering which rc4b is the right one (or are they the same?)

the one in the op or sourceforge in the cappy section?
