simply flash a custom kernel for you JVT first so that you can flash file in recovery,then flash MIUI then only flash custom kernel for MIUI.
*
as far as i know, there's 3 files needed for flashing:
1. PIT
2. Phone
3. PDA
4. CSC


im currently on GB 2.3.4 JVP...

flashing custom kernel means which file to use in the 4 segmet of Odin??

sorry for the noob question. Last time when i flash GB stock ROM, there's PIT, PHONE and PDA to flash in one go.

but this custom kernel making my head spins~ laugh.gif

But there's this clause when i click into SpeedMod kernel download link:
*This version is only for Samsung Gingerbread ROMs. It will not work with Samsung Froyo, CyanogenMod or MIUI ROMS!*


QUOTE(ic3joker @ Nov 4 2011, 04:26 PM)
LOL! fail la like that. will wait till everything is working only flash to it.

nope. you just need a speedmod kernel place it in PDA section then turn your phone into download mode connect it to pc using usb then flash. after finis tadaaaa you got custom kernel. then copy MIUI/cm7 file into your phone. turn your phone off, go into recovery select"install from sdcard" ,find your cm7/MIUI file then flash. wait for 10-20min until the everything done. restart your phone , enjoy your cm7/MIUI.
*
after flash into this kernel, i still can turn on my phone as usual right??

only then i can copy the MIUI package into internal SD.. biggrin.gif

It's not advisable as CM7 and MIUI are running on 2.3.7. I think you're referring to apps and data?

im currently eyeing on this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=992251


but i've downloaded this earlier on from MIUIandroid site:
http://miuiandroid.com/roms/miui-development-roms/


should i stick to Galnet MIUI? hmm.gif

If you prefer iphone-ish i recommend going for the Galnet miui. overall seems fine and fast, one disadvantage is it does not play all video formats. thats why i still prefer stock roms over custom
*
but there's this clause... sad.gif

this means MIUI only works on Froyo? sad.gif

0: Be sure that you're based on a Froyo FW! CRUCIAL.

1: Load these files:
a) galaxy-efsbackup.zip / Mirror
b) cm7-galaxys-initial-kernel.tar / Mirror
c) MIUI MCGv5.3 / Mirror
d) speedmod-kernel-k13c-500hz.tar / Mirror

hi im new user of galaxy S

just wanna ask .. is better u upgrade official firmware?

coz my android is 2.1

or is better for me use another things like modify firmware or somthing
*
2.1 is way too old...

current latest stock ROM for SGS is XXJVT i think.

you can flash it locally via Odin or use Samsung Kies to updated over the air.

Nope current MIUI rom works on GB bootloader. MIUI MCG is an outdated rom, has been discontinued months ago lol.  If you want a stock MIUI rom, check out the miuiandroid website. For custom MIUI rom, check the XDA/Galnet forum.

For current MIUI roms, to flash, all you have to do are

1) Flash a custom kernel to your GB rom (so that you have CWM recovery)
2) Flash the MIUI rom zip

That's all. smile.gif
*
ya, i have CWM recovery already.

so, im ok to go with custom MIUI there already right?

actually i've downloaded the stock MIUI from MIUIandroid site.

but still hunting for better MIUI alternative. I guess Galnet's a good choice??


Added on November 4, 2011, 5:59 pmcurrently downloading Galnet's MIUI from here:
http://galnetmiui.co.uk/landing/stable-builds/

later test it... hehhehe~

Yup can flash straight away.

I'm using the one from miuiandroid though. Galnet's MIUI rom is not my type.  laugh.gif

what by you mean, not your type??

in terms of responsiveness, the miuiAndroid is better?? or Galnet's??

btw, how do i backup my current ROM in CWM?

thanks!!

I have no idea how to do a nandroid backup. Using Titanium Backup instead.

I faced FC the last time I used his rom. Now should be stable I guess(?) lol. The thing I hate the most is his fugly rom theme and some bloated apps.

I rather go for other MIUI roms from XDA like Mint Berry and etc.  unsure.gif
*
oic...

actually i have both now... i mean MiuiAndroid and Galnet's..

lets give it a spin and see how.

for Mint Berry, there's some issue as i've gone through the user feedback.

for Galnet, i downloaded the Stable version instead of weekly.

so i just boot into recovery and install from Zipfile... then gao tim??

do i need to wipe cache first??

The main thing why do you wanna backup the rom? usually restoring diff version of GB always cause the Android OS bug to arise.

thats a good point~ laugh.gif

thanks for the kind guidance...

tonight will try Galnet, then stock MIUI~ laugh.gif

thanks alot for all who had given me advises here~ notworthy.gif

Syfq, try Go Launcher and play around with themes first. Also, get some nice and useful widgets to customized your desktop, eg:
