[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
mine stopped rotating after I replaced the lib files and adjusted the permissions as well.. the screen just doesn't feel like rotating I guess :)

This is what made me swap kernels actually.. after rotation stopped working, I replaced the files again, rebooted.. After rebooting and the rotation not working again, I decided to change out kernels - which turned out to be a bad idea :P
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Man this thread is weird I swear, no matter what I do I can't go to the first page using the app. Does anyone have any suggestions of something lol
[Captivate Android Development] ottawadad34:
I get the same thing
[Captivate Android Development] tysj:
I could never get to it either. Must be awesome overload?
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
+1

10 char
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Only logical explanation
[Captivate Android Development] rwj5279955:
Yup, same here
[Captivate Android Development] Segnaro:
Might be a kernel bug.
[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
every time i download a theme from the theme downloader app it wont show or apply. It keeps saying theme manager not installed....

EDIT: NVM I'm just downloading from the theme manager app.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
My MIUI version says GRI40, is this normal?

My Captivate runs MIUI!! From XDA App.
[Captivate Android Development] HaiKaiDo:
Things are coming along here nicely! I appreciate all the devs work, such a good rom :D. I also would like to thank the guy that is maintaining this thread. Im so glad that this thread isnt like the CM7 thread, where the devs and mods are super rude and act like all the users are just a pain in the ass (which i understand some questions are silly but come on). So once again, I salute this project as a whole!
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Yeah it says that for everyone :D
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Lol I actually just checked out the cm7 thread just to see what all that hubbub is about, give em a break, without their kernel and stuff we couldn't get this on here as early and easy, but it is nice to see that this thread has such a positive feel on most people =D
[Captivate Android Development] x986123:
Nope, tried a different kernel, auto-rotate still fails.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Haha good! mossination you've done a great job on this forum!! I think this is one of the coolest threads out there! So cool it makes you view the first page in a browser, because it knows you want to switch and download all the files right away!

My Captivate runs MIUI!! From XDA App.
[Captivate Android Development] ottawadad34:
Got everything up and running. Only thing I cant figure out is when I connect my phone to my comp. its only recognizing my external sdcard
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Error status: Can't set individual ringtones for contacts, its weird I could with beta 6. Anyone else getting this?

My Captivate runs MIUI!! From XDA App.
[Captivate Android Development] The_Zodiac:
I didn't see it in the change log but doesn't this version fix the external sd card problem?
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
No, you have to mount it with terminal emulator.

My Captivate runs MIUI!! From XDA App.
[Captivate Android Development] Segnaro:
Try an older one.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
I'm currently on segnaros beta 7 pack without any issues if you wouldn't mind flashing back to 7 since your having trouble with 8. Just a suggestion. And thanks lol
[Captivate Android Development] x986123:
Which kernel do you use? Link please.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Excuse any weird looking changes in the first and third post, I'm trying to fix the "app first post" problem
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
so what's the status on 8? better/worse than 7 or both?
[Captivate Android Development] steviusthedevious:
great job! thanks are in order.

one thing, and i know this is nitpicky - is there any way to theme the wifi/3g/antenna colors? i'm not a fan of the GB green. i tried a couple different themes, to no avail.
[Captivate Android Development] TheMathMan:
I have a quick question. Despite changing the date format to the UK version in settings the notification bar stays as month-date.

Is there a way to swap this, maybe editing a framework?
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
Hi can anyone tell me if ther is a way to arrange icons alphabatically in the launcher?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] harrynghiem:
You mean beta 8 can work with external SD card?
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
you have been able to using terminal emulator. the process is somewhere on this thread. only problem is that it doesnt last through a boot. also im pretty sure you cant use internal sd on computer with the temporary ext sd fix on

if by icons you mean apps, u can put all ur apps in an app folder, then set it to be alphabetical
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
is everyone's camera working on beta 8? i dont think i touch anything and on boot it says after a long black screen camera has stopped working, and i hit the fc option. then when i reenter, it says cannot connect to camera. any ideas? i think i did have it working on beta 8 at one point
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
okay..thats a bit long procedure, also is ther any way to set the system volume at different level than ringtone volume? coz having a dialpad volume at max is bit annyoing
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
RC1 is out.
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
Not just you. Me too. have to use browser version. I'm loving this rom though. My only minor issues are phone wont charge past 94%, auto rotate doesn't work for me on b8 anyone else not charging past 94% happened to me on b7 too. Used both kernel that is included and javalin.
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Yup! Downloading as soon as I get wifi :)
[Captivate Android Development] rizzo269:
I was on beta 7 for a while but had to flash back to a 2.2.1 ROM as I needed my camera function badly. I just read everything in the thread and see great improvements! Now with RC1 out today, I am thinking I have to jump back on the MIUI train. Looking forward to the feedback on the RC1 build.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Downloading and installing now...

(Also for anyone else doing this, check out the backup feature- clean install everytime and don't lose your crap!)
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
First boot after install- system reset to AT&T screen and hung on a black screen.

Removed battery and restarted. Booted to setup wizard. Powered off to reinstall kernel. Keycombos ineffective due to I9000 kernel.

For anyone else trying this... flash the Captivate kernel of your choice BEFORE first boot.
[Captivate Android Development] TheMathMan:
Looking forward to Captivate tweaked RC1...
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Yep. Did you manage recovery or flash cm 7 initial with Odin?
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Sadly I'm at work, so I'm fighting the bootloops and attempting to get it going with ROM Manager... not working so well so far lol, but at least it occasionally boots to production so I can use the phone.

I really need to keep one of my USB cables here :P
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Lol I am in sales, on my way to pick up my Odin laptop. Going to flash cm7 initial then javelin. Will report in a couple
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Let me know how it works :P I've heard the I9K guys are having issues with wifi using the kernel it comes with, so I'm curious if one of our kernels will work with it properly.

From what I can tell though it's just as fast as the Beta8 official and has a few minor graphical overhauls :)
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
My auto-rotate isn't working even after changing the lib files...
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Weird... I can't even look at it atm, I'm stuck admiring the AT&T splash screen =/
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Look below.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
May have solved the issue. The wifi doesn't work so you have to reflash the kernel, but doing so also fixes the auto-rotate!

Went to change the icons and after applying, my status bar disappeared.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
I really wish I had a way to flash a kernel without having to boot into recovery. This is frustrating. But at least the phone is working... albiet with screwed up buttons and no rotation :P
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I would hold off on flashing RC1 as seems a little buggier than 8r2.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Is the theme any different? They said they changed it
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Mostly the icons on the default theme are a little... bubblier? :o
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
I think the themes are only lock screens. I clicked the download link, and the file was called lock screen themes.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I didn't really notice anything different since I changed the theme. XD

I know if you click on Theme Manager it hovers over the screen instead of opening a new screen. And then if you click on the edit options, it opens the new screen.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
SO. . . Is it worth it for me to update?? :D What would I have to do fix wise?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I would wait, since there are bugs in the RC1.

But if you do want to flash:

If the wifi and auto-rotate don't work, you have to reflash the kernel. And you also have to change the lib files to get the auto-rotate to rotate correctly.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I am on a little adventure.

Kernal hung up trying to flash with odin. So got the screen of death. Went to flash stock. Hung up on factory rfs. Back to stock now. Going to start all over again ; p
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Alright thanks! I can't wait to get out of the beta!! I have got a question... Is the I900 MIUI thread, the official MIUI team, and us all sharing info and stuff?
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Don't you love those little adventures??? :p I know I sure do(n't)!!!
[Captivate Android Development] mkatforum:
I am not sure if it was answered earlier but what would it take to Flash MIUI on top of CM7? Would I have to start from scratch or can I just flash the ROM over the existing kernel (Escapist's kernel BTW).
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Choose mount and storage, then you have to clear system, data, cache. Flash beta 8. Do wipe data and factory reset. If you don't use a Segnaro package, you have to flash a modem, and a kernel. Reboot let everything load. Do another reboot and you're good.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Q: How do I install this if I'm coming from CM7?

A: Format data, system, and cache. Flash the MIUI.zip and then do a wipe data/factory reset. Flash a Captivate CM7 kernel and modem. Reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] mkatforum:
Didn't realize there was a Q&A! The Not Relevant Anymore post before it threw me off!

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Yeah, we should probably get a mod to delete it so the faq is easier to see. Also the faq needs to be updated since some of the issues that it talks about are fixed.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
This sounds like a job for mossination!
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
I'll probably just have to delete a few questions since there already fixed. I don't think I have to add anything though, there don't seem to be many questions about the older fixed packages, well since I only update the OP when segnaro posts his fully fixed packages.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Mossination what do you think about having a section for people to write about what they like about the rom?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Sounds like a good idea, ill see if I can add more options to the poll.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
I was thinking at least, how you had your fixes section on the box, we could send you messages of how we felt about it, and you could but it in a box.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
You can load the thread right but not the first page right? lol its harder on me because Its like hell trying to update the OP from the android browser.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Wow really? It loads on my free one fine, I just cant get to the first page. Yeah idk lol this thread is creepy.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
I like the idea, Ill see what I can do later on. I have to fix some issues of the thread first though.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
MIUI: So fast our thread is haunted!
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
LOL you sir have given me a new thread title.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
ok worst day ever with my captivate. I mean worst, but i think all is well. thought i lost my phone for good. odin stuck on rfs, stuck on sbl, green screen, you name, it happened. **** that sucked. i think i am in the clear now although i may be taking a step back to breath
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Yay, contributing to the community in a meaningful way :D haha
[Captivate Android Development] smithisize:
I like this ROM... when it works lol.

2 things keep me from using it all the time:

-Autorotate

-Hard-buttons sometimes not working until lock/unlock

Otherwise, this is great! I love it!

Regards

Smith
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Rc1

Wifi, yes

Auto rotate, I fixed

Lock screen clock, correct format

External sd, there on boot with out fix needed.

Under ware soiled

Iphone 3g, back in storage
[Captivate Android Development] smithisize:
You made me lol with that last part xD

And excited me with the first lol

Regards

Smith
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
So here's a candidate for the next thread title:

MIUI: Not Responsible for Soiled Underwear
[Captivate Android Development] donks232:
i downloaded this and its in Chinese i rebooted a few times and no luck.:confused:

Edit: no hablo Chinese
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
True, it was not the rom. My pc sucks.

Anyone looking to flash rc1, you must flash captivate kernel before first boot.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
This needs SO MUCH emphasis. If you don't your phone will boot once every 3 or four attempts and will bootloop constantly :P Do not boot to production without flashing a CM7 compatible kernel or you will have to Odin back to initial!
[Captivate Android Development] bekarhoo:
Hello,

would like to try out this ROM. But I'm the unfortunate ones who has the Model 1008, for which there is no 3-button recovery. So is it still advisable to load this ROM? I can get into download mode via adb reboot download, will that suffice?
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
You might want to wait till this and CM7 get a little more stable as adb reboot download no longer works on either this or CM7 (yet).
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
No. have you tried odin with three button fix?
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
What would be the bug fixes I would have to do??? So main concern is flash captivate kernel before reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Just a captivate kernel and the sensor libs pushed. You may have to alter keymap file too, but I can't get the right kernel in until I get back to my computer with Odin to verify :o
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
No alter key map needed

Have to flag kernel again after first boot for wifi
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
My clock still shows 24 hours.
[Captivate Android Development] bekarhoo:
Yes, the 3-button fix will work on most models but not 1008 :(
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I am sorry, I was wrong
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
What settings are there for the MIUI lockscreen? I thought I saw that someone said something about widgets? I never saw anywhere in settings to change the MIUI lockscreen. I don't mean changing the background or the way it looked. I knew you could do that.
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
I kind of like a twist on that:

MIUI:

Responsible

for soiled underwear
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Hey mcord, what kernel did u flash before boot that's working for u and is there a possibility u can attach it?
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
3 button fix works on my 1008

When I FTS/MC, root, sideload ROM Manager, copy CWM.zip and 3 Button Fix to SD. Reboot to Recovery with ROM Manager, load CWM, then 3 button.

Works like a charm while I'm temporarily at stock(Although, I haven't tried installing MIUI yet)
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Gimme a sec ill post em here once my computer turns on
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I used javelin. Be aware mac click speed is 800 for this kernel

http://goo.gl/Lj9LL
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Do you need root explorer? I understood almost everything.
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
Anybody here flash RC1?

Very excited to wondering if there are any others whom have tried
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
i used root explorer. so what u do is download the files, extract them. then the two files that were in the the hw in the download, move them to the current hw folder. then move the last folder (i think libsensorservice.so) to the main area. make sure you change the permissions on all of these to user: read and write. group: read. others:read. if done correctly it will was rw-r--r-- on the bottom right of the file. and this is in system/lib.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
i havnt got to check yet. is there kernel cwm flashable, or through odin? also you just download the rc1 from the i9000 thread, formated all ur stuff, flashed, factory reset/wipe, and then flashed kernal? am i right?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
You should be able to use super manager
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
are the beta 8 packages linked in OP 8r2 or 8r1?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Cmw

I9000 forum

Those see the steps
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
So you flash RC1-->Then Trident (or any CM7 kernel)-->Boot?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Yes then bootup, back to recovery, flash kernel again. Otherwise wifi is broken
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
what do you mean by mac click speed is 800? and does anyone have a link for a working kang kernel for beta 8 or rc1? i've have success with those so far
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
If I had to guess I'm going to say that's his captivate autocorrecting "Max Clock speed" :)
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Dont you guys get horrible battery life overclocking on this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Bingo. Swype, its a love hate thing
[Captivate Android Development] antimog:
This is not true at all. If you use Odin JF6 with 3 button fix and then flash anything over top of it you will always have 3 button fix. I have used pretty much every rom imaginable and it has always worked (Darky, Cognition, CM, MIUI, Phoenix etc.). If you don't have 3 button fix working it's because at some point you went back to stock probably with the one click Odin and lost it.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
thanks. and just a question to anyone:

how does this affect the speed of the phone? ive never bothered to run anything but standard 1000MHz
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Little slower, better battery
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Nope. Im over clocked to 1.2 and im getting a good 12 hours with moderate to heavy use.
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
dont flash seganaro's package....ive done that on 2 captivates and both had various issues including no cell connection

once i flashed kang's kernel and JK4 is was good to go.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Beta 5 is out and looks like 6 might be out later today.
[Captivate Android Development] Doug8796:
What weather app is this
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Thanks for updating us =D
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
If you're referring to the one in the screenshot, it's MIUI Weather.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Just wondering but did anyone actually have success with Segnaro's package? He did say he needed someone to test it when he made it.
[Captivate Android Development] cappyandroid:
MIUI ROM has been flashable to Captivate for a month or two now through Vibrant Android Development...

This one doesn't look more/less stable than Vibrant's so I'm just waiting for more working features... Thanks OP --
[Captivate Android Development] sold1erjjt:
So BETA 6 is looking to be out today? should we hold off on flashing BETA 5?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
For what it is worth this is a gingerbread version not 2.2.1 like vibrant

CM7
[Captivate Android Development] squishy5:
is the autorotation fixed
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Im flashing the beta 5 right now and im about to install the cappy kernel and modem=D...idk if beta 6 will be released today but hopefully it will, you guys can either wait or try out beta 5;)
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I would flash Beta 5 since it has some bug fixes in it and we don't know for sure when Beta 6 will be out. Plus it's easy to flash if the new one comes out.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I know this had been covered, but if I want to peak at this coming from cm7 just dl beta 5, format cache, data, system, flash miui, factory reset, flash kernel, flash modem, boot? Or should I boot after miui install then go back to recovery then flak kernel and modem?

CM7
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Well I got beta 5 running and all the essentials work

Data

Messaging

WI-FI

Market

Didn't test out phone calls but im sure it'll work

There doesn't seem to be much of a "look" difference except for the notification bar, the bar now acts as a task manager so if you long press the home button it will go to the noti bar.

Also the apps detect internel sd so I'll be using this as a daily rom now :D
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
I kinda got lost lol but what I did was formatted and deleted everything like you said then installed the beta 5 zip, booted to miui and did the setup then i turned it off and flashed the cappy modem and kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
What the hell downloading now, not sure this is my cup of tea but just want to see it for myself on my phone.

CM7
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Just remember it's still not a finished product, there's much more to come :D
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
So how should we flash coming from CM7?
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Also what is the update process for the following releases? Just flash the latest beta plus modem / kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] kingfisher1111:
HOw is the battery backup on this?Abnormal or normal?

Anyone can give instructions on how to flash this? Please..for my Captivate? After flashing to Stock what needs to be done?
[Captivate Android Development] Reefermattness:
Works on mine just fine and always has.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
k i guess ill give it a shot and maybe flash a standard speed kernel later if i dont like it. well flashing now... wish me luck.
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Downloading now. Will report how it goes and what bugs if any besides the ones we already know of.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
I tried changing the permissions of the lib files and it would stay that way... Every time it went to back the way it was.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
should you wipe the cache partition as well or just the factory reset?
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
what does it say in the top right corner (assuming ur on root explorer). for it to last you have to have mounted it as R/W first
