Home and back switched.

Use root explorer, open file in text editor, switch values, reboot
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
do not flash beta 8 imposed you are already running cm7 or miui. If coming from something else you need to flash beta 7 first then beta 8

I have to run, will not be back for a while

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
So just flash this with CWM and auto rotate will be better?
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Sent you a PM.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
No, you have to extract the files, put them where they belong and set permissions yourself, the zip is not clockwork flashable.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Holy crap!!! Segnaro's package that he asks you to send a pm about is great!!!! Everything but the external sdcard works right away!!!!!! He did a great job!! Beta 8 is great!!! Hopefully he releases it soon to everyone!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Segnaro:

New package for Beta 8. Thanks to buresh.kevin for testing.

Make sure you guys wipe before flashing. If you don't wipe /system at least, you'll be stuck on the Galaxy S screen.
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Does this include the internal sd fix.
[Captivate Android Development] Segnaro:
Testers had no problem seeing their internal SD.
[Captivate Android Development] pvr:
From CM7 can I simply perform the wipes in CWM and then install the zip file?
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
I know that someone was asking if the backup app worked. It worked for my SMS, xda, angry birds and I haven't checked anything else. Settings weren't restored it looks like.

My Captivate runs MIUI!! From XDA App.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
So do a wipe before flashing or format all of the stuff in the op flash the beta 8, then wipe/factory reset
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Clear system, data, cache. Install zip. Wipe data and reformat from clockwork. Reboot phone, reboot again. I think that's everything.

[Captivate Android Development] supaphreek:
I cant seem to get it to install apps :S. From the market or from titanium backup... I got it to install Carbuzz (an app) and titanium backup through the market...

but after that, no apps would install. It says insufficient storage :S

any help?
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Think u gotta reflash
[Captivate Android Development] Segnaro:
Did you format /data?
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Does anyone know how to reset settings??

Status report on segnaro package beta 8: just had a problem with the messaging icon! It opened the camera. Did a reboot and not having that problem anymore.

[Captivate Android Development] georgem106:
ready?

What else is left before the final version is released?
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Well for one I'm gonna say they'll want external SD working as it should. Its a shame that Samsung/Google chose not to have an ext SD slot in the nexus s:(
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
hey seganaro

does the most recent beta 8 download have all the fixes for auto-rotate, home/back button, etc.?

and all if ur already on miui 7 does it matter whether you flash at full battery?
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
It has all the fixes dude! I didn't and I'm fine so far!

My Captivate runs MIUI!! From XDA App.

[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
and did u reset before flashing at the same time u formatted everything or did u do ur formats, flash the rom, then do factory reset?
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Manage applications- go to whatever the message app is and click clear defaults
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
I did format system, data. Flash rom. Boot up phone. Reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] ottawadad34:
Question.. I never used this rom yet but want to now. I notice that there is an beta 8 but the op says beta 7. I see the post for the beta 8 but what im wondering is whats the steps to flash this rom with the new update?
[Captivate Android Development] rsohne:
Just installed beta8r2 and can not see any of my sd cards. Tried an 8 , 16 and 32. Is there a specific kernel anyone is having more success with? I am running the first kang version dated 3/11. Also the folder on the first screen is in chinese. Anyone else have that? Great job to all the devs on this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] Segnaro:
Beta 8r2 from the i9000 thread doesn't scan your internal SD or mount them to any folder.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
U talking bout external SD? If u are they're under emmc and can't be accessed by apps
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Hey is anyone getting good battery life? Mine seems to be running out a little "too" fast
[Captivate Android Development] Segnaro:
That's just in my package. The i9000 version doesn't mount it to any folder.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Not on boot, but if you eject sd while phone is on then put back in it is accessible at emmc

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] rsohne:
Hmm, not seeing anything in emmc. Its empty. Am I downloading from the wrong link?:(
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
I've been getting about 12-14 hours. Beta 8 seems good as well.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Eject sd , put back in while phone is on

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] rsohne:
I have tried that. Had it working on beta 7 through emmc but come up with an empty folder on beta 8. Same kernel used on both. I am thinking I didn't download from Segnaros last link.
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
I'm not seeing it either. But when I go to external SD I do see my files that are on my memory card.
[Captivate Android Development] ThatJawn:
Sorry for being so annoying with all of these questions. But it finally worked :) Thank you.

Also one more thing. Since internal sd isn't working atm, and when you mount the device the External SD card isn't recognized. Where is the external sd card located in the files of the internal sd card? Isn't it emmt or something or other? Can't seem to find that.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
mnt/emmc
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
Y'all are talking about beta 5 but im reading through the entire i9000 thread cant find anything but people asking for it?

Also what is the expected changelog for beta 5 as well?
[Captivate Android Development] sold1erjjt:
Just an obvious question, (please don't hate haha) I already have CM7 on my phone. It seems as though it might be a simple flash of the Miui beta zip, since I am already on a CM7 kernel. Is that the case or would I have to ODIN back and redo the steps, yeah I know it is a dumb question, but I just had to see. Thanks in advanced
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Idk the changelog yet but here is

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=992251&page=72

the last post

You mean your running cm7 right now....uhm I guess you can delete storage and stuff and flash the beta over it but idk
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
Alright awesome thank you?

And Im back on CM7 because I was having a lot of network issues with the captivate modem and kernel package. But you think we could flash it over CM7 by just formating data, cache, and system?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Yes, you can just flash the zip. You might have to flash the kernel and modem again.

It should be out later today.

Beta 5 be be 1.13.18 instead of 1.13.11.

Fixes:

- Ringtones

- Gallery

- Fixed Media Scanner

- New Boot Animation

Not sure if that is all of it.
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
Thanks man, for the Captivate kernel can it be any of the captivate CM7 kernels such as Escapist's OC kernel? Or do we have to use the Kang kernel on the OP?

And when the update comes out ill flash on top of my CM7 right now and will report back, but after I flash your right im assuming id have to reflash the Captivate CM7 kernel, and the Jl3 Modem.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
I think everything's gonna be in English also.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
You can use any of the cm7 kernels you want but most people seem to be having success with the jl3/kang kernel combination.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Some other fixes from .11 to .18 are:

- Updated Phone UI (slide to answer update and will be customizable soon)

- New UI for the Contacts.apk

- Background support added to Phone.apk

- Ability to get rid of the white text that is in a couple of apps such as YouTube and Root Explorer
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
UPDATE: Alright so I don't know if the beta 5 will be released today because of the upload failing twice. The upload should be out tomorrow though for sure.

SOURCE: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=992251&page=76

Idk anything can happen though =D
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
nice build inspired by an iPhone interface

I'd recommend looking at the screenshots before flashing. I wasn't aware I'd lose my app drawer lol.
[Captivate Android Development] whiteguypl:
You dont really "lose" it. Its just different.
[Captivate Android Development] Segnaro:
You could put all your apps in a folder and put them on the dock to simulate having an app drawer. :)
[Captivate Android Development] Coak5:
Does that mean this theme will work for our Captivate's finally without actually getting a port?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=915041
[Captivate Android Development] Thnikk:
Whaaaa? MIUI=/=MDPI
[Captivate Android Development] Coak5:
So this Miui port is not MDPI??? Shouldn't it be MDPI considering it is a port?
[Captivate Android Development] Thnikk:
MDPI is just the res (320x480 iirc), cappy is HDPI (480x800) so a port would still be necessary (but porting from higher res is MUCH easier than porting from a lower res, this requires remaking every image for a higher res screen.) Unless someone loved it and had the patience to do it, I don't think you'll ever see a port, sorry :( Even then it would probably be made for an AOSP rom like CM7
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
so what is the UPDATE listed in the title? I dont see anything that has changed from when this thread was released.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
If you can see your files then do this

Working external sd, in regards to app seeing it

On sd make sure you have a folder named external

Open terminal emulator

Su

Mount --move /mnt/emmc /sdcard/external

Go to settings, system, unmount sd, mount. To be honest mine did not unmount

Done won't last through reboot though. I can play all my music, see all pictures

[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
hey guys so I just flashed MIUI for the first time. Had CM7 before so i'm not new to flashing. Well the thing is that i flashed successfully but i cant get the Chinese language to change to English on the pulldown menu. I've rebooted already but still no luck. What else can i do?
[Captivate Android Development] aaronv89:
just downloaded segnario's latest package and auto-rotate doesn't seem to be working at all. is everybody else experiencing this also? gonna try to install the proper libs and see if that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Which zip did you flash, there are a couple out there

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
If it stays Chinese even after you have rebooted and what not then try changing it manually and see if that helps, go to settings->third tab->nine down-> then two down
[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
Flashed The newest beta 8 thats out

EDIT: it worked now :) Thanks for the help
[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
Anyone get auto rotate working yet?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Yes. Posted how earlier

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
i found the lib files needed to get auto rotate to work. where do i put them and what do i change permissions to? im using root explorer and im on the most recent version of beta 8 rc2
[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
Sorry but i cant seem to find it...link please
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
post 943.

so i download the lib files. do i have to replace any existing lib files in the system or just paste the folders there?
[Captivate Android Development] aaronv89:
using root explorer open the libfiles.zip and extract the 3 files. you should have: (1)libsensorservice.so and (2) sensors.aries.so (3) sensors.goldfish.so (the last 2 files are in the hw folder).

now move libsensorservice.so to /system/libs folder of your phone. I suggest making a backup of the original file instead of overwriting. then change permissions of libsensorservice.so to User: Read - Write. Group: Read. Others: Read. After changing permissions it should say: rw-r--r-- underneath the file name.

then do the same with (2) and (3), except move these files to the /system/libs/hw folder. When completed reboot your phone and auto-rotate will be working.

edit: if you have no idea what i'm talking about then you should probably use a different ROM while this one is still in beta.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Replace, make sure you long press what you paste and match the permissions of the other files in the directory. If you font you will have to reflash

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
i did everything as stated. moved stuff to correct folders, overwrote, changed permissions, and it still won't work :(

edit: i did reboot also
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Not sure then.

Sorry

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
you were able to get it to work on the the most recent beta 8 right? and the files u posted earlier on 943 (i think) are the correct files right?

if so, i think i might just rebooted couple more times and redo the process and see if that works

edit: cool 1000th post :)
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
If the rotation is still fubar after moving the files in and setting the permissions check to make sure you are using a captivate kernel. Pairing captivate sensor files along with an I9000 kernel will cause your autorotation to be busted.

You might also want to delete the files, make sure they're gone (Just make sure you don't reboot before you replace them), then replace them and set the permissions, just to dispel any possibility that the files were not properly replaced. Make sure you clicked the "Mount as RW" button in root explorer as well, there's a possibility it simply did nothing :P
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I did it with the i9000 beta 8r2, & yes those files

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
will do. doesnt the cap8b file come with a captivate kernal tho?
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Not sure, I flashed the a version last night and haven't screwed around with b yet. Haven't had a reason to. But check my edit above for some more troubleshooting info if the kernel flash doesn't resolve it.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
nvm. after a titanium backup and a 2nd reboot, all is well. thats weird but watever it works
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
It needs to say you're mounted as R/W, if the button says R/O and the text to the left says R/W you should be cool
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
for anyone flashing a new beta version, this is HUGE. before doing so, use the backup app that comes with miui to backup at the very least desktop screens. then after you flash and get all of your previous apps back on, go back in and restore. this will restore your entire layout to the way it was before so you dont have to rearrange them manually!
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Has anyone had a problem where they can not bring their internal memory card up on the PC, i know about the external not working but i thought internal could be seen on the PC. When i click turn on usb storage it just sits there like its loading on the phone but nothing happens. Do you think installing the Nexus S drivers will help.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Yes you need the NS drivers
[Captivate Android Development] tae_254:
Thanks. Do you know where i download them from. I've searched with no luck.
[Captivate Android Development] ottawadad34:
So do I have to install the beta 7 before the beta 8 if I dont currently have the rom on my phone?
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Go to the cyanogen q&a thread. They explain pretty well on how to get em working
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
No. U just need beta 7 or cm7 on prior in order to keep your IMEI (VERY IMPORTANT). unless it has been fixed with newer versions, beta 8 has no efs restore in its script
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
I have this problem everytime after I mount my external sd. Reboot and it should work, it does for me at least.
