Did this now.

looks like 3d got better as RC4c but now 2d is kinda laggy.. lol

Is this how it is??
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Lol this might be a little weird to ask but I was wondering if someone would be willing to take 6 screenshots of the new RC5 for me. (im on andromeda right now for battery reasons) If anyone has some free time or something then that would be great!
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
i just erased that line.

Finding some popups that have black on black text.

Specifically in the SuperUser request screen that comes up for some apps.

Text is too dark to see.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I'll do it, just need to change back to the stock theme.

Here's a few from like four pages back:

[Captivate Android Development] rsx19:
Yeah its turned on in settings and relashed yes

Edit I just played around with the camera and I pressed front camera and now it forcecloses on so I can't change it back. how would I fix this?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Yeah I wanna get the best ones and sort of make a collage of them for the OP, kind of like what the i9000 banner has.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Miui camera works nice now
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Uploading now. Will send them to you in a pm.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Turn on compatibility mode for the app
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
Not to be weird, but do you think you could post the screens your taking here too? I'd like to see a bit more of RC5.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Moss can post them since I don't have them all copied anymore.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Anyone know if there's a way to only see certain contacts? I synched contacts with facebook but I only wanna see contacts on my sim without having to remove my fb account.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] DiscipleDOC:
Go to menu - settings - programs - manage applications - **app name**

Scroll down to "Compatibility mode" and turn it on.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
There ya go
[Captivate Android Development] ozone777:
That did the trick...thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] ozone777:
Could you please be more specific about where you noticed a problem with 3D performance?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Changed the banner a little so it matches the new miui colors better, hope you guys like it :cool:, btw @prototype, I couldn't change the image size of the screenshots without maintaining picture quality so ill save the collage thing for another time, but I did put a link to the screenshots in the OP so thanks for taking time away to take them :D
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
YES!!!!! If anyone cares/remembers, I couldn't get ODIN to recognize my phone to flash back to stock. Problem fixed now, I used an old laptop that I forgot I had because it no longer connects to the internet. I'm now off MIUI! Not that I didn't love the ROM, it was just such a battery killer! Coming from Precision, it was too much of a difference for me. Maybe one day I'll come back to MIUI if battery life every gets better!
[Captivate Android Development] citrit:
This is what works for me:

make a call

Put the phone to your ear even if the screen if off

pull away and hit the power button.

This will give you the dialer and simply hang up. From then on it works correctly. I do this as soon as I flash the ROM so it generally works for me, also you don;t ave to turn off the proximity snesor or use the power button.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Lol well glad to see you got your problem fixed, hope you enjoyed miui and flash it again later
[Captivate Android Development] TheMathMan:
SPB Shell 3D. It was like stop motion animation!
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
Have you tried this?

Someone posted this.(sorry forgot your id...;))

delete the first line of /system/lib/egl/egl.cfg file Gave me better 3d performance.
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
Just a suggestion, even though I'm no longer on the ROM: Many people look at the screenshots to get a feel for the ROM before deciding to flash it. As different as MIUI is, I would suggest maybe adding a few more to the OP since Prototype took so many. Just a suggestion!
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
He only took the ones in the link...which is already in the OP...lol what are you talking about?
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
Haha, sorry, I should make myself more clear. You only have two screens in the OP, and I'm just suggesting adding more since they're already taken so people get a better feel of the ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Moss, you want me to do the collage?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Yeah lol the OP is already updated I put the link for the screenshots because there were so many, and yeah go ahead prototype, Im just making it for fun and gave up but was gonna try later but you can make it instead if you want
[Captivate Android Development] stevrodriguez:

Try clearing the data from the camera app from settings.
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
You meam you can't download files when you are on 3G/HSDPA mode right?

Go to downloads app (you can find it between your apps)

The android keyboard doesnt work. It wont auto correct or auto-complete
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Grab the latinime.apk from the previous rom, or wait until RC5b which will probably be out tomorrow.
[Captivate Android Development] aasheet:
cant find 3d gallery on rc5 ,

i guess ill have to get it from prev builds, can ne1 tell me how to properly do this ?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
A user pm-ed me suggesting that I should make a website(a freewebs one) for this rom dedicated for the "captivate" version so everything would be more organized, I don't mind making one and would love to if you guys want. I just wanted to know if you guys would want that or just think its a waste of time.
[Captivate Android Development] jlt220:
I tried to do that, not sure where i went wrong but it disabled the keyboard from working reflashed rc5 and back to normal, well without auto correct.

hopefully the official fix comes up tomorrow.
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
I read in the i9000 forums that they would be coming our with a final version soon and official development might stop, so would it really be worth it?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Did you change the permissions?
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Did you change permissions
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
I don't know, aren't the "MIUI" people about to like actually add the galaxy s phone to there website or something? Lol im not doing it unless you guys really think its worth it. I just don't want to waste time on it if its for nothing lol
[Captivate Android Development] IllegalOpcode:
I could not get any service with rc5. Not sure what was keeping it from getting signal, I tried different modems But it did not help. It popped upm an error when I tried to look at the network operator and the apn was blank. Tried to set the APN but it would not appear so back I go. It looks great to bad I was being a pain for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
The i9000 and Vibrant were officially released on miui.cn and also miui-dev with the 1.4.15 beta.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Check your IMEI. If it's not correct, you will need to go back to stock, flash RC2, then RC5.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Well I'm not really sure on where else to go with this rom, I need some suggestions.
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
It wouldn't hurt to create a site. If you news help maintaining it if you do decide to do it then let me know.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Until the Captivate is fully supported, I think you should make the website. If the i9000 devs decide to stop, we can still use the MIUI-Dev's version and then change the modem, kernel, etc.
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
I think the devs should concentrate on making things work more efficiently, rather than changing up things themeing wise.

Ex: Changing notication bar menu layout, changing colors, boot screens etc.

Just making things more reliable and all like alot of the 2.2 ROMS such as FireFly.

Is all of these MIUI releases just an English version of whatever the Chinese Site uploaded? Or, are there i9000 devs specifically working on this ROM? (ex: like phoenix team working on 2.2 FireFly/Phoenix/Supernova/etc.)
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Alright ill create the site, whoever wants to help me maintain it then pm me. 2-3 people should do fine.
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Suggestions:

-I would like to see louder volume coming from the speakers (for louder ringtones, and playing back music)

-Probably tweaks that you can apply via a kernel (Like what hardcore has created)

-Possibly a lag fix

-But most of all, optimizations to make it more battery friendly =]

-Aesthetics wise, imo, I don't think it needs any more visual tweaks, making everything run more efficient should be better!
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Lol we need to get a developer to help us out with that man.

Ok tae and proto, I sent you two a group pm.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Development of these nexus s ports (cm7, miui) is not yet reached a point where battery optimization and such can really be tackled. There is allot of complexity behind what the cm7 sgs team had to do to get this running. We just gained the ability to mount our external sd, and it was not that long ago that apps on miui could not access the ext sd. More development is done for efficiencies on these roms by the devs than any of the 2.2 roms, which to be fair are largely all the same rom with a different theme. The largest contributor to how well the 2.2 roms perform is the kernel. And the devs have source for 2.2 kernels for sgs, while no such source exist for 2.3 on sgs.

The i9000 devs add allot to the official release and to be honest the official release started by trying the i9000 devs work.
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
When i9000 Gingerbread source code is released, will MIUI and CM7 be rebuilt on that?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
No, but hopefully some of the source can bee used to make improvements
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Do your facebook contacts have saved phone numbers
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Yep
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Only thing I can think of then is using groups.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Is there a way to sync them to a group or would I have to move them one by one?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
One by one but you can multi select. Depending on how many contacts you have it should only take a couple minutes
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
I'd like to see a full contact synch with Google for all relevant fields...my Google contacts birthdays do not show up on the calendar (yes, synch is enabled); they did on most, if not all, of any i9000 2.2 or 2.2.1 ROMs I've tried.
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
I am on the fence for upgrading from rc4 to rc5. Because of the help of the great people people in here I have rc4 running perfectly for me with no issues ( except for battery drain, but I'm clear on that fix is a ways off) being that rc4 is working out so well is it worth upgrading? I see mixed posts on one hand rc5 is better, and on the other, people are going back to rc4. Or is it just a matter of personal preference? I am loving this Rom though.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Hmm seems you can only put ur sim contacts in groups. Fb contacts don't even show up when grouping
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
There will probably be an update tomorrow so you might as well wait till then :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Very informative! You really helped shed some light on this topic for me. Thanks for the info!
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
Is there any good way to backup all the folders i made on deaktop?
[Captivate Android Development] Dieabolical:
I installed RC5 today, and didn't have any issues with the install. But, there are some issues I can't figure out.

Kernel: Kang@Z11 #1 Modem: JK4

- can't download anything from the Android Market. Download status bar goes full right away, and nothing installs

- when I try to use the MIUI weather app, gps doesn't work to determine my geo location

- online themes don't appear to download either.

- MIUI music app doesn't read my embedded cover art. Ignore, I figured this one out.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
Is there a way to simply change the orange back to the original blue for the notifications bar, settings menu, etc.?

Never really liked color Orange, nor have I ever even owned an orange piece of clothing.
[Captivate Android Development] fluidd:
This information is in the FAQ. Reading it would be helpful! :)

The rest of the issues, I don't have those problems, so not sure how to fix em'.
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
Right on brother. Will wait and see what tomorrow brings. Lol
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Was thinking the same thing, wait a bit longer. Rc4-c is working semi-ok for me and is endlessly fun to show off.
[Captivate Android Development] Dieabolical:
Okay. I got the Market download/install problem fixed. Thanks for directing me to the FAQ. I had to basically toggle wifi/mobile network.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
The only problem I still have with MIUI is quiet notifications. Drives me mad. Otherwise awesome ROM! RC5 flash fixed a lot of my performance issues. Things are actually much faster. And this is WITHOUT formatting /data. Also, I don't get autorotation with Kang, only with Platypus.

One issue: Keyboard went back to stock GB with no autocorrect. I extracted /system/app/LatinIME.apk and /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so from RC4-C and threw them into the proper folders. Now no keybord. Quickly made permission adjustments into rw-r-r- and back to awesome old keyboard.
[Captivate Android Development] skeepon:
nevermind. found in faq's
[Captivate Android Development] :
I'm anxiously awaiting being able to use this bad boy. Rdio is the only thing stopping me. It crashes immediately if you try to play a song. I submitted a bug report with the built in crash reporting function. Not sure who that goes to, but it had a MIUI email address. So I assume the right people got it.
[Captivate Android Development] IllegalOpcode:
Never even crossed my mind. I will reflash today to see if it works. That is most likely what it was.
[Captivate Android Development] TheMathMan:
My GPS is non existant. No lock ever!

You didn't format properly.

Go into Mounts and Storage

- Format System

- Format Cache

- Format Data
[Captivate Android Development] jlt220:
Do you think there will be a RC5b today, that fixes some of the stuff that seems to have broken between rc4 and rc5?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
My guess is that it should be up today since MAMBO said he had it finished, but he just needs to do a couple of things like add the new language pack, etc.

But you never know.

anyone know how i can get auto rotation to work running excapists new kernel. i can get it to work at all no matter what i do.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
If you want some of the blue back then you should try mccords theme

Why don't you try antlion kernel in the op?

i had freakin crazy auto rotation problem with RC4 series but i flashed RC5 with antlion kernel and no more headache now.. auto rotation is working perfectly so far.

[Captivate Android Development] mswirski:
@flashman2002, any luck with orientation? I noticed no difference when I flashed.

Is your music stored on an external SD card (in the slot by the SIM)?

Mine is, and it isn't found. it also doesn't get scanned by the media scanner. Is there someway to invoke the scanner?
[Captivate Android Development] danimmal:
Ohhhh I see thanks for that answer
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
Rotation doesn't work but when I turn on auto rotation it doesn't automatically flip to landscape like it was before. My music is on my external SD. I have unmounted/remounted the card before so I wonder if that has helped my phone. Like I said though it wouldn't show music through doubletwist so this fix has helped in that regard.
[Captivate Android Development] thawes:
If someone has any thoughts, I hadn't seen anyone else run into this issue yet:

I've been running CM7 just fine for a couple of weeks now on my Captivate. Decided to give MIUI a try - followed the instructions on coming over from CM7 - and flashed the Segnaros package. When the phone boots, it sits at the "Galaxy S / Cyanogenmod" boot screen, and sticks there.

Thoughts?
[Captivate Android Development] mswirski:
The only mount /unmount option I find is for the 16GB internal.

How can i mount / unmount the external?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Sounds like bad flash. Make sure you format system, cache, and data before flashing the zip.

Looks like beta 6 will be out soon.
[Captivate Android Development] mswirski:
@thawes, that means you did not flash the rom correctly. Be sure to go over the steps in the right order. You might need to wipe the system data and cache partitions, and then flash MIUI again.
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
That is a very good point. I honestly don't know but all of my music is on my external so I dont know. Sorry.
[Captivate Android Development] thawes:
Thanks for the quick reply. I followed those steps when I flashed.

-Wipe data/system

-Wipe cache

-Wipe Dalvick cache

-Flash MIUI-CAPB5.zip

-Reboot

I re-downloaded the zip, in case something had managed to corrupt itself in the process though that netted me the same result. Maybe an additional step / different process? Something I should be doing after I flash, but before I reboot?
[Captivate Android Development] capita:
I did the same thing and got stuck at the same CM7 initial boot screen. No idea. I followed all the instructions as well.

:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Go into Mount & Storage in Recovery mode, Format System, Format Data, and Format Cache.
[Captivate Android Development] mswirski:
Maybe trying going from 2.3 back to 2.2, and then following the steps to go from 2.2 to MIUI? It's more work, but I don't think anyone has had any trouble going from 2.2 to MIUI.
[Captivate Android Development] thawes:
Ahh, that did the trick! Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Beta 6 is out and Beta 7 might be out later today.
[Captivate Android Development] mswirski:
Excellent. It seems like a lot is fixed in Beta 7 compared to 5 :)

Lets hope a port doesn't take too long :P
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
You can flash Beta 6 now, you just have to flash a Captivate CM7 kernel and modem after flashing the miui.zip file.
[Captivate Android Development] mswirski:
To flash a CM7 kernel, can we use CWM, or do I have to use odin?
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:

[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Yeah I got it.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Hmm, it worked for me without any problems. Could of been a bad download. I think you are going to have to reflash the rom. Try downloading it from their forum if you try again or wait for rc5b which will include it.

sadface, just to change one little thing :[

I keep getting an error whenever I try to flash Miui RC2 file saying "Status 7" when its flashing the modem. Anyone know what's up? Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Edit: Nevermind
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Did you flash the efsbackup and the captivate initial kernel before flashing rc2?
[Captivate Android Development] vaiol123:
Yup. I flashed it using the "Phone" tab
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Phone tab?
[Captivate Android Development] rsx19:
hes talking bout odin
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Ah.

You should be flashing it through cwm. You only need to flash the speedmod kernel and initial kernel with odin and select pda for those. And then flash the miui zip through cwm
[Captivate Android Development] SeanHacker:
i tried antliions kernel once but it seems to lag way too much at startup and when switching from wifi to data. it was crazy lag so i havent wanted to go back.
[Captivate Android Development] vaiol123:
Oh alright. That would explain all the issues haha. Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
So yeah.

Go back to stock. Flash the speedmod kernel through odin using the pda tab. Go into recovery, flash the efsbackup.

Go back into download mode, flash the captivate initial kernel through odin using the pda tab. Go back into recovery, format system, data, and cache in mounts and storage. Flash miuirc2.zip. Wipe data/factory reset.

Reboot. Then go back into recovery and format again and wipe again just in case, and then flash the latest miui.zip.
[Captivate Android Development] vaiol123:
So I did that, and now it just boots into cwm and says E:no misc partition...
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
The error is a bug of CM7 so just ignore it. So everytime you boot the phone it goes into cwm, correct?

Go into Mounts and Storage. Format Cache, Format System, Format Data. Flash the miui.zip.
[Captivate Android Development] vaiol123:
It still continues to go to cwm
