Miui Nexus port

Ok, so it looks like the Miui ROM posted on the I9000/Vibrant forums that uses the Custom Bilboa1 CM7 Kernel works for the Captivate.
Here is the Link to Bilboa1's Kernel thread:

Link to I9000 Miui ROM Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992251
Follow the direction on the I9000 thread and substitute the CM7 captivate kernel in. Also it is noted that you have to flash the CM7 kernel right after flashing the beta 3.zip file (the zip file installs a I9000 kernel). Good luck hunting

there is already a miui port but from the fascinate. i would love to see a more functional; version though. just need someont to get the aosp kernel straitened out and reorient it. but that takes a lot of work.

Miui was being worked on and it was dropped. Have to ask master because he was the thread Creator for the captivate port as to why it was stopped. He is a vibrant dev.
This is my Captivate. There are many like it but this one is mine

it could be something as simple as one idiot making a flaming post, and master getting pissed off and quiting, but as far as i knew darkyy and DG were in on it too, and both of those are experienced on cappy. however, darkyy has his own rom to focus on and im sad to say it but it kinda looks like DG has moved to focus on his atrix. Not that i blame him, but i know that i will miss his work

MIUI was picked up by the french developer jblanc, and then tinkered some by another dev in i9000 land. It's basically the NS port of gingerbread miui jammed together with CM7 and bilboa's kernal for CM7 one. So we do need a reoriented kernel, as the one they are using is not the CM7 since it wouldn't boot properly. Please don't spam the thread with requests for ETAs like what happened to the old Miui thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992251

I have been following that thread. It looks to be much further along than the last port. This one reads like it will end up being usable, once ported here. I am running cm7 and bilboa has a captivate version of his kernel. May have to give it a run when I can afford dealing with a soft brick
CM7

Wasn't asking for ETAl, just didn't know if anyone saw. Its not the port Master put out there it was the nexus S port the uses that custom CM7 kernel. It has some of the same problems as CM7 but its miui. Seriously this is an awareness thread no flame. We have a Bilboa Kernel for Captivate, is why I'm saying why it might be possible

I would not pay mind to those who enter threads just to criticize without reading or knowing what they are talking about.
If this works on the captivate it would have all of the same "bugs" as cm7 as it is using all the set up including a custom kernel built from cm7 source.
Reading the thread it its farther along than the last port as wifi, data, and calls work. It is also gingerbread where as the last port was 2.2.1.
CM7

Has anyone tried using it on the Captivate with Bilboa's kernel? I might have some time later today to try.

Ok I got it to boot following the instructions from the MIUI thread in the i9000 forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992251
All I did was subsitute the captivate equivalent files from CM7. I also had to flash a captivate modem from the CM7 section too. going to test it out now.
Ok FYI after you do these steps and Flash MIUI Beta 3 it will install a i9000 kernel and modem. You will have to go after the initial steps and install a captivate CM7 Kernel and Modem.

So you used bilboas captivate kernel after you flashed the beta 3 zip?

Are you stock stock? lagfix? rooted?
Those will all work. being stock the first kernal you flash will have to be a .tar version with the full version of Odin (ensure you have 3 button combo)
My current favorite is Onix. Works great and is very stable. Plus it add UV and OC features. AND gets updates all the time.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=930679 flash the .tar from here, for Onix
Then flash an i9000 modem.

Yup, I'm runnin stock, rooted and have the supercurio voodoo lagfix kernel. But I'm lookin for somthin different that might speed up my phone... I've never done any OC/UV so I'm not to worried about that that much haha

That kernel has clockwork.........so you don't need to use a .tar version.
Use the CWM versions put to the root of your SD and flash with clockwork Recovery
Even if your not into OC/UV the kernal is still great at stock settings.

So its as easy as flashing from CWM?

If you choose to run an I9000 kernel then you need to match an I9000 modem to it.

I have read that others have done it with little success. Any reason why you are holding back from just flashing a full ROM. You are almost there and quite frankly, I think you are safer going with a prepacked ROM over putting pieces together on your own. If you are comfortable with rooting and CWM then you have nothing more to learn to do a full ROM flash. I have never looked back since I first flashed. I've tried several and would say my favorites so far are Serendipity and FireFly. If you want to stay more Stock like, Cognition is also really great stuff.

Ok thanks guys.... Ill look into that

Even with the prepacked roms most people do not leave them alone, and mod and change the guts of them to their taste.
I don't see how learning to change things one part at a time is a bad thing, as you learn how everything works together, and will have a better understanding of it as a whole.

That's true.... but ill look into a rom haha.... hopefully I don't become an addict haha jk

Get something designed to work together first. That gives you an easy start and stability out of the box.
After that, and after making a backup (get a backup right after you root and install cwm, then again after you successfully flash your first rom), you should feel fairly confident in trying out different kernel/modem combos.
Just remember that if you're using an i9000 kernel, you must use an i9000 modem. Likewise if you are using a captivate kernel, you should pair it with a captivate modem (kb1).
Here's an excellent list of kernels and modems and the safe combinations.
And, of course, there's always the modem thread.

Nice! Thanks man

Why Bother
Why bother with this total fail of an upgrade when there are so many better custom ROM's to choose from right here on xda?
I'm on Infused v2.2.3 and really like it but considering making the move to ZEUS soon.
I just can't see any reason to make a giant leap backward with the AT&T GB upgrade. It's just too little too late. YMMV though.

Maybe Samsung decided to use Zeus?
(Actually the GB release is running really well for myself. I haven't even rebooted yet since install last week.)

Yeah who likes a 100% working phone anyway, right?
meh.

now I know why there are no sources yet. and yeah the update is important if not just for sorcery code. never mind Samsung and att having respect for the customers....
think of how much better the roms can be if we don't have to mix libs from different leaks to fix video recording or playback and workarounds for the sdcard and wifi. and if they actually have HDMI. then we could swap kernels around without considering switching vold.fstab. yeah I hope the update is fixed soon so the code can be released finally.
someone is gonna have to get the update files and decrypt them to get a stock kernel though. (to extract initramfs and the root process will require a kernel to revert to until custom kernels are made.)

If you consider hdmi 100 percent, then I guess im running a 99 percent working rom......yea.....im good with that
sent from my baby girls rom

hey I'm using Zeus myself. but I use the kl2 kernel on it and it would be nice if you didn't need to change vold.fstab back to stock to do so. I just want source code for new kenrels that could be maintained as all the old kernels were developed by people who are no longer here.

I remembered dman said trying to run stock kernel in zeus will boot loop.
There were scripts not supported by stock kernel.
To make it run, just disable lagfix?

the init.d scripts wont run. that's true. but you should be able to change kernels after a reboot. its running for me. I didn't look at the scripts to see what other things I'm missing but the rom runs fine without the tweaks and lagfix.

well I ran it with infuseion a few days, but I get the themes, the rom is deodexed, and when ever I deodex something it seems to run weird either slow or choppy. Zeus doesn't. I dunno what dman uses to deodex but it works better than what I have used.

Roms that allow call recording.

I am in serious need of a rom that will allow me to record my calls. I recently (yesterday) was awarded custody of my son. I now have to schedule visitation with his mother and would like to have recorded proof. I will be notifying her at the onset of each call that they will be. These will all be in case she doesn't show for scheduled visitations.l to prove that I have been setting time aside. Please any he'll would be good. My system is a rooted captivate with stock kernal running stock gingerbread minus some bloatware. Ive only wandered across thread discuasing apks and other files that ive no clue about changine to do so. Thanks for any help.

The Firefly ROM can record calls. IMO Firefly was one of the most polished ROMs out there. Unfortunately it is Froyo, but it's still an amazing ROM. Check out this post I made a few months ago about getting call recording to work as well as the whole thread on call recording. Hopefully this helps, good luck.

Two things:
1. If you're having trouble with acronyms, take a look at the "XDA Terms and Acronyms" post. That should help you out.
2. To get around the 3e signature issue, your best bet would be to flash a Froyo kernel with ClockworkMod recovery already included via Odin or Heimdall. I would suggest Onix, as it's a good kernel and I know it works with Firefly from previous experience.

thanks for the help. it is certainly appreciated. i just flashed the odin kernal. does it matter that the phone is currently running stock gb? also how long does it take to load? i like literally just did it at 10:14pm on wednesday june 20, 2012.

Well I flashed a stock kernal with cwm already inside and was then able to download firefly and flash it. I really like it. Ultra smooth. Much faster than stock gb. Thanks to all who responded.

Team Phoenix aka The Collective aka The Family did come out with a great GB ROM called Mosaic. While Mosaic is themed blue, it does have a flashable Firefly theme here if you're partial to that.
They also came out with an ICS ROM, Fusion. Unfortunately it doesn't have a Firefly theme but it does have a green theme that looks pretty good as well.
It is important to note that the Firefly ROM is the only one that has call recording. It was never implemented in any of the more recent ROMs. Hopefully this helps.

I like firwfly in that it is quicker than the stock gb and it supports call recording. I needed it at the request of my attorney to record all calls with my sons mom. Id like to get back to a gb based rom that supports call recording. I don't want to try a ics rom until its more stable and safer. Don't want to render my phone useless.

If you can use heimdall, the simplest way is to put the phone into download mode and flash my uclb3 stock package or adam outler's stock package.
The second post in each op contains the insecure kernel. These kernels are also flashed in download mode. Once these custom kernels are flashed, you can boot into CWM and then flash the custom firmware you want.
If you are familiar with Odin, check out some of jscott30's thread. He has several Odin premade rooted firmware package that are also very nice.
Once you have the firmware you want, Zen has cooked up a few kernels that can overclock at 1400 or 1600. These will provide quite a bit of speed over stock kernels.
