Idk what it was but when I tried it on another computer it worked! Now I'm getting a E:no misc partition..

I got it working about 10 minutes after, I forgot to wipe data and factory reset, that's why it would keep rebooting into recovery!

Thanks to everyone who helped!!!
[Captivate Android Development] wattx:
There is no fix for the E:no misc partition. clockwork expects there to be one since its ported from nexus, but it wont change or affect anything.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Well no matter what it won't boot. It reboots into recovery and keeps telling me that...
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
did you just flash the initial kernel in odin, or did you continue on and flash the MIUI Beta Zip?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
After you flash the CM7 kernel, go into mounts and storage, format data, format system, and format cache. Flash the miui.zip. Wipe data/factory reset. Flash a CM7 kernel and modem. Reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Search miui weather app. I believe you can get it on your rom

So many pages...

How to sort the rotation? Its in landscape, bottom facing the left of the screen, when its held portrait!

I have the Armani i9010. Running latest Kang kernel. Is this a known issue?
[Captivate Android Development] rizzo269:
Rotation is a know bug. Just have to disable it and only use portrait mode for now.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Known issue, unclick auto rotate in notification bar.

There are some apps on the market that can automatically rotate selected apps. So if you wanted mms to always be landscape it would be

[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
Hey thanks for this info it worked perfectly and now all my music is showing up in music player, but one question can apps write to external sd card? because I am getting an error message that app doesnt have write permission. is there any work around to this???
[Captivate Android Development] rizzo269:
Just a little update with some things I have found today.

I flashed the JQ1 modem for CM7 and am having good luck with the signal and data speeds in southeast Michigan. One thing I noticed was I switched the battery display to percentage and when the phone is fully charged it only reads 93%. You can't calibrate the battery with this ROM because if the phone is off and you plug it in, it powers on.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Known issue, from cm7

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Not sure, maybe by changing permissions of the external folder using root explorer

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] TheMathMan:
Ok major issues with no service.

Tried JPY and the included JPM modems. Wifi works. It picks up my service to start and its named on lockscreen then I get 3 out of 4 bars, green bars, but it says no service and I can't dial or message.

Tried a reflash but same issue.

I'm using I9000 modems as I'm in the UK.

Anyone know what I need to do to sort this?

Again, wifi works fine.

Sent from my Armani S i9010 (CM7)
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
You need to flash one of the ones on the first page.
[Captivate Android Development] rizzo269:
The modem has to be a CM7 version as far as I know. Like the post above says, there are some links in the OP. There is also different CM7 modems in the modem thread in this forum. That is where I found JQ1.
[Captivate Android Development] TheMathMan:
Really? Surely the included modem, JPM, should work right?

Also, JPY worked for me in CM7 perfectly.

Try jl3

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] TheMathMan:
I've had a thought about my lack of service.

Might it be due to some issue with efs backup?

I wiped CM7 and installed MIUI.

Sent from my Armani S i9010 (CM7)
[Captivate Android Development] TheMathMan:
Ok. This is the issue. IMEI numbers do not match. Efs backup obviously didn't work properly.

Is there anyway to fix this without going back to stock first...

I have an efs backup on my laptop luckily!

EDIT: Sorted. Copied backup to internal SD. Reflashed MIUI. Annoying but better than going back to stock or having lost efs altogether!

Anybody know what music players are finding stored songs? I tried wjnamp and I'm getting nothing even after a reboot
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Try meridian
[Captivate Android Development] JEANRIVERA:
except for the sd issue with the music and ringtones this ROM is awesome and blazing fast in my cappy and the data and calls working perfect here.

on a side note i can't get the theme manager to work but is not a big deal since i just love the original theme!!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
If you really want theme manager to work go to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=992251 and read the third post, its a fix for theme manager but I can't guarantee it will work.
[Captivate Android Development] JEANRIVERA:
fixes from i9000 thread they work on captivate i just tried them
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Good find, I was reading the original forums, the next beta is coming soon :D
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
Just flashed this is incredible!

So when the new updates comes out what will us Captivate users need to do?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Im pretty sure just need to format data,cache and system and stuff and flash the new beta but don't worry I'll be glad to test it on my phone first to see if its safe before hand.
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
Well try not wiping everything and see if it makes a difference.

2. Would we next have to flash the Captivate JL3 modem, then the Kang Captivate CM7 kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
I can't remember which one I flashed first so I don't think it'll make a difference, just make sure their "both" flashed on there. If all else fails odin back to stock =D (I doubt you'll need to though)
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
I know I have a phone that can 3 button recovery, but I can't get my phone to go into it.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Can you get into recovery at all?
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Not using 3 button. It just boots normally. I'm also not getting any network.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Oh so your already using the rom? If so what kernel añd modem are you using? Or did you install segneros package?
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
I think i used segneros package.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Try flashing a different kernel and or modem, you can try my combo the JL3 modem and my kernel is in the first post. As for your 3 button recovery I can't guarantee that will be fixed.
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Where can i find a kernel to flash through odin?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Its in the first post at the very bottom, if that doesn't work there's other kernels you can try.
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
All i see is a CWM one.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
My mistake I forgot you can't use CWM all I could find were zips on the development thread, see if this website has anything Odin friendly.

http://kang.project-voodoo.org/

Note: It could be the modem and not the kernel that's causing problems.

Notification Dropdown

Installed, followed directs, using Escapist Kernel with JK4 and loving it. Super fast, stable.

Curious Question:

In this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12077133&postcount=3

I know its the i9000 thread, but how do I make my notification drop down look like that instead of the one with all the toggles? Is this possible on the captivate?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
That was an older beta, so that's why it looks like that.
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Thanks a lot. Kinda like that better, but like both of them either way :)
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
I like the old one better too. Quick tip, drag down the left side of the notification bar and it will show 'Notices' and drag the down the right side and it will show 'Toggles'.
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Thats awesome :) Thanks for the tip.
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Another Issue :confused:

I applied the theme manager fix and it caused a boot loop at the MIUI loading screen. Tried doing a factory reset without any luck. Is this a known issue?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I have not heard of this. I would reflash

When done use terminal emulator

Enter

Mkdir /data/system/theme1

Reboot

Change theme

Anybody having issues with accelerometer stuff? I can't play doodle jump or falling ball
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Yes, there is something wacky here. Hold phone horizontal and it works. this is likely what messes with auto rotate

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Oh the humanity!! Please fix this now! :)
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Lol, but best I can tell this is why auto rotate is fd up

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Ya I can't find a horizontal calibration in the menu either..

Hmm checking market

Can't find anything
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Just to make sure, when you guys toggle the autorotate on, every app goes horizontal right?
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Yep :/
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Thanks!!!

I can happily say that I, and my phone is loving the MIUI! Even with the little things that don't work, I can't convince myself to go back to Serendipity!! Thanks to all of those who contributed to solving all those aggravating FAQS, and to those who even did some code!!! And special thanks to mossination and all of those who helped him tweak this amazing rom!!!

Day 2 on MIUI: Do you remember that feeling of when you were a little kid, when you finally got that thing you wanted badly, everything seemed a blur except for that thing??? This is how MIUI is a 1000 times over!!! Honestly with all the little glitches, having to type in a command to get my external sdcard to be read (which I have almost everything on), rotation not working (which I never use), you couldn't stop me from using MIUI!!!! It's everything I ever wanted inside a rom!!!!!! If you're thinking about switching, don't think, do it!!!!

mossination, I don't want any credit because I didn't do anything, but you need a testimony section or a why to flash section at the top or at least at the bottom!
[Captivate Android Development] whitesox311:
what happened to 7?

i wish miuidev woulda just let dudes finish this port

[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Is anyone running this ROM with Escapists 4.1 and using the OC? If your name ends in "escapist" please do not respond. :D

How much worse is battery life?

I used Telenav yesterday for about 30 min - had to charge my phone after lunch :) I'm assuming its the ROM and not the app, but boy did that drain the battery
[Captivate Android Development] PeteSeiler2010:
I must say even with the very few small bugs with this ROM....I love it, it runs so well on my phone. I can only imagine 7 will be even better and I cannot wait to flash it.

[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
Not here. Only Engadget still doesn't work, so I just go to the site now.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Maybe it's just me. If I try to go to the first page of a forum it freezes and then force closes.

Sent from MIUI!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
It only happens to me on this thread.
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
Same here!! I never realized that before!!! MIUI doesn't want us to update...

My Captivate runs MIUI!!
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
That happens to me too..maybe it has something to do with being subscribed to it?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
My other subscribed threads don't have the issue.

Maybe MIUI has become self-aware...
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
Well this Miui thread has issues. But as a whole the XDA app works fine for me. I don't have any subscribed threads either so it isn't that...although it is a good thought.
[Captivate Android Development] rizzo269:
I have the same issue. This thread only I cannot get to the first page. Looking forward to the next update when it comes out. I flashed Kang's latest kernel this morning, but I am currently charging to see how it performs.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
The sd card issue was fixed!
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
MIUI has a mind of its own :eek:

BETA 7 is uploading now !!! =D
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
Beat me too it. Alright got the mouse ready for downloading.

This will have internal SD card working and I think lockscreen working as well.

Very excited.
[Captivate Android Development] americasteam:
Can't wait!
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
BETA 7

http://www.multiupload.com/0TNGW9579U

BETA 7:

What you CAN expect:

*Everything stated in OP works APART from EXT SD Card! HUGE Thanks to Segnaro for fixing the Internal SD!!

*New Lockscreen

*Fixed colours

*New layout of pull down bar

*Translated to English

*BLN

*Some more stuff i can't remember!

What you SHOULDN'T expect:

*Working EXT SD Card

IF you're WiFi doesn't work at first boot, reflash this Kernel: http://kang.project-voodoo.org/f/CM7..._02_update.zip

You HAVE to reboot after installation to get rid of all Chinese translation!

DON'T just download it and not post back with bugs etc. We need all the help possible.

ALSO, a user posted two lockscreen themes for the Galaxy S on MIUI.cn, all credit goes to him, i'm going to re-post them here.
[Captivate Android Development] rizzo269:
Downloading right now! Will report anything I see. I haven't flashed an update of this yet but I am assuming I just wipe data and clear system, data, and cache and apply the zip. Hopefully it finishes quick so I can flash while I am at work. lol
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
48% downloaded

[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Curse you, links going slow gonna have to wait a bit -.-
[Captivate Android Development] rizzo269:

[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Almost at 100% for me. XD
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Flashing , will report

MIUI
[Captivate Android Development] mswirski:
To recap, its simply:

wipe /data /system /cache

flash miui zip

flash kang kernel

flash modem

and that should be good?

Also can we use the additional lockscreen themes?
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
After you flash the miui beta 7 boot it up and once everything loads turn it off and flash the modem and kernel and yeah there shouldnt be any problems using the other lockscreen themes
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Theme Manager still doesn't work without applying a fix to it. :\
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
lol multiupload wont even let me download this right now
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Compatibility mode doesn't seem to work...
[Captivate Android Development] steelechamp:
CAn I just flash this update over beta 5 without doing anything special?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
yes compatibility mode does not appear to be working. other fixes still work to apply themes and see external sd in apps
[Captivate Android Development] mswirski:
Apparently we need to flash themefix, because it wasn't included in b7.

And also AIO fix, whatever that is.

[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
So what is better with beta 7? It seems that the lockscreen works but we still have to manually flash the fixes? Hmmm...decisions, decisions on downloading. That is if we could download it lol.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Download works for me now so it works fine and the full changelog of beta 7 is in the 3rd post.
[Captivate Android Development] mswirski:
So i get Chinese text because the factory reset isn't really working for me any longer.

I get :

Formatting data..

cache...

datadata...

sd-ext...

E: format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2

Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...

Data wipe complete.

I believe its that error which stops it.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] ffbadkill:
Is that the auto rotation function not in appropriate direction?
[Captivate Android Development] TheMathMan:
Interesting... flashed Beta 7.

Got the lockscreen, new notifications drawer, notes app, but it still says 1.3.18

Also, it kept all my English language coming from Beta 6. Only Chinese that reverted was the Visitor toggle.

I wiped data, system, cache, datadata...

Wasn't expecting this.
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
I am not sure it its a theme issue but whenever I open root explorer or tibu I cannot read the text ... I mean its all washed out...anyone knows how to fix this??
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
I believe this is in reference to formatting the external SD card to EXT4, which it cannot do. Correct me if I'm wrong. MMC and sd-ext mean external? or is this the bad block error from CM7?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Anyone able to get swype to work?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Did you do the install and then reboot? I'm using it right now.
[Captivate Android Development] mossination:
Autorotation still as buggy? (Haven't flashed yet)
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Yup.

10 char
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
That would be fixed by using compatibility mode which people have said is not functional.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Everyone needs to flash this to get the themes to work and to fix compatibility mode.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I will try again but that is what i did
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Just did a reboot and it stopped working.
[Captivate Android Development] biggem001:
the camera seems to be quite laggy for me. anyone else?

now causing hard reboots
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Swype fix doesn't work anymore. :(

Is there a way to change the lockscreen time to 12 hr?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Turn off autofocus to fix the lag. It shouldn't cause any hard reboots, what kernel are you using?
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Bad Signal

Flashed Beta 7 from Andromeda3 and forgot to turn off 850 band only in SGS tools. Now Im getting pretty terrible reception, 1 bar, 2 bars at the most. Could this be the cause? Using Kang with JK4 modem as JL3 wouldn't even find a signal.

EDIT: Scratch that. Seems to be working a bit better. Still seems to come and go though pretty frequently. I'll have full bars, then drop to 1, then back to full. Could only having the 850 bad enabled before flash still cause that?
[Captivate Android Development] rsohne:
+1 on the camera
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
So wipe system, data, cache, then flash beta 7. Then let it reboot... Right?

And is it ok if I do a full back up with the backup app that came with MIUI, then restore it after I get beta 7 on there???
[Captivate Android Development] JEANRIVERA:
can anyone tell me if the file explorer still force close?
[Captivate Android Development] buresh.kevin:
It seems like from what everyone is saying that it works! They said the only thing that didn't work was the external SD
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Still force closes.

Also, if you want 12 hours instead or 24 hours on the lockscreen, turn off the automatic time.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
So if you want auto rotate to work you just need to snatch the sensor lib files out of CM7.

I just grabbed:

/system/lib/libsensorservice.so

/system/lib/hw/sensors.aries.so

/system/lib/hw/sensors.goldfish.so

Plop them into place with adb (or root explorer, or whatever floats your boat), make sure their permissions match their neighbors, and reboot the phone.

I've included a zip file of the files that I used- if someone wants to turn this into something clockwork flashable feel free!
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
actually, this dosen't even work for me :( Set automatic off, set it to GMT -4, and it still shows 18:00 on the lock screen. This is with the default theme + the other themes posted in the i9000 section.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Ah, after you turn off automatic, click on set time and hit ok.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
if ur already on cm7, do u still have to do all of the steps in the instructions or is there a certain point you can start from?

edit: also when it says external sd is not working, that just means ur computer cant pick it up right? you can still see all files in root explorer under emmc right?
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Thank you for that. Now another bug unfortunately :( Whenever I shut off the screen and try to turn it back on, my bottom lights light up and my phone reboots. Possible bad flash?
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Read the faq, it will answer your question.

@phoenix I had it reboot on me when I messed with the clock. So wait a bit and see if it happens again.
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Thats what I was thinking. Maybe something to do with the clock settings as when I even set the clock after turn off automatic, it auto-rebooted itself then too; without even touching the lockscreen.
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
YES! I can confirm this works. SMS works, browser, etc. Gonna test for a while and make sure it dosen't cause any crashes or turn itself off.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
You can swipe left and right in the pulldown menu.
[Captivate Android Development] raymar23:
Tv out

I did not see mention of it, but I would like to know if tv-out works on this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
Haven't tested but probably not since it doesn't work on cm7
[Captivate Android Development] ThatJawn:
Hmmm. On beta 7 i am getting force closes on Facebook & flow for facebook. Also. Xda premium wont work but normal xda app will....

I am confused.
[Captivate Android Development] Prototype159:
Try uninstalling and reinstalling as xda premium works for me, I don't use those other apps so.

@phoenix: Let me know if you get another reboot as I got another one. Just want to see if it was a bad flash or it was the clock.
[Captivate Android Development] Sagui:
Xda force closes on me too and I'm on cyanigen, so its not a MIUI issue.
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
XDA premium works for me but this damn thread still wont open lol. On a positive note, engadget now works! Im happy again.
