logcat i type logcat? lol and I couldnt get wifi working on the build i posted above (yours) does the one you just posted have it? I am going to try that one here in a minute, and get the logcat..... If I can lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zanderman112:
Didn't you have to use static IP for wifi to work?

/sig
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
That's right, now I remember reading that a couple post back.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Maybe if you copy all the libs from fascinate or ns4g, it'll work (with no flicker)
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
No i fixed that.. You just click on the wifi you want and enter the password if it has one... No more static ip
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
I am trying to get that logcat posted, I typed logcat in terminal emulator and its still running.. (that was like 5 mins ago) do they normally take a long time?
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
When I didi it a couple days ago it just started spitting out text right away...
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Yeah, its definitely spitting out text lol, just not done doing so.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
I think its more of a log of wha your phones doing and its says if something errors... so idk if you would have to touch the screen while its running or before lol..
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Are you guys sure the screen flicker problem has to do with something in the lib folder? I changed some stuff around moved some files from the fascinate from the lib folder into ours, it booted and still had the screen flicker. I moved a couple other things and got passed the Samsung logo, but after that it was all black.. Trying one more thing tonight then I'm done lol.

Edit: No luck :( Well after half the night testing, flashing, moving files around, etc. I am done, will do more tomorrow
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Thanks, man. Did you ever get the logcat? Either post it here or PM me please.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
By the way did you get mms working in froyo?
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
nope :/ I can never get it to recompile/decompile without errors...

If you replace apns.conf with the one from any other working froyo rom and used handcent and deleted the mms.apk in 1.3.5 it should work...nobody has ever tried it though...
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
Well im going to the mall in a bit but ill try that when I get home and let you know,what foloder is that in? And did you use the zipsigner 2 app in market I use it alot and It always works
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
Yea i tried one...and i tried signing with apkmanager. The problem is the error i get when decompiling :/

And thanks! The apns.conf is in /system/etc
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
Alright I'm home,now can I thow it n the zip or do I have to install then put that file in(I'm gonna take it from my current build which is simply aosp

Edit all I see is apns-conf.xml is that it
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
Yea you will have to open both in 7zip. Easiest way is Open Archive both roms and drag and drop. Exit and flash lol

And yea sorry about that. It is apns-conf.xml
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
Cool and I'm just gonna do it in astro file manager haha report back in a sec edit got a 404 on the chopped up miui link D:
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
Does anyone have the chopped up or normal version of 1.3.5? I seem to have deleted everything in dropbox lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38805599/iPhone+ANDROID=MIUI.zip

Also, could someone post that logcat? May help us get screen flicker fixed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Just dl'ed yesterday the normal version

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38805599/MIUI.zip

Link should be up w/in 10 mins.

Try the build above here plz and send logcats
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
Is this the 135
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Yes, it is. The new build is http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38805599/iPhone+ANDROID=MIUI.zip
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Sorry, I tried to get the logcat, for one it was taking forever, but I copied whatever it had then pasted it and tried to e-mail it to myself but the browser kept force closing. Just about everything I did forced closed so I couldnt paste it onto anything. You have a better way to be able to paste it somewhere so I can get it onto here?
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
I think there's apps on the market that let you save the logcat to your sd card
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
The thing is, I can't install any apps when on MIUI. The market force close, and I tried to save the .apk but the file explorer that is installed wont let me open up the .apk to install. I don't know what to do haha.

EDIT: i got alogcat on miui. will post back once i get it saved

Edit2: go figure the one i got does not have the save 2 sdcard feature
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Oh, I had that issue, but then I flashed EH06 ERA Rom (un-named at the time) on top of it (no wipe), and then everything worked, choice of go launcher and miui launcher and media worked. Put ERA Eh06 unnamed on your sd card. That was 1.3.5, but it should work for this as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
Well I tried three things and none worked I tryed to add that fileon all ways btw and all I got was the message ut couldn't download but I tried stock mms with file, using zipsigner 2 to redo mms, and delet mms and use handcent and no go
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
okay, I got the logcat. Now how am I going to post it, I really don't want to post it here and take up all that room. Anyway I can save it as a file and post the file?

Gonna flash to a working rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
Put it in a text doc
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
If you can't put it in a text file b/c of your phone, post it on pastebin.com and just post the link here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Here it is... I hope. Let me know if something is wrong, kinda doesn't look right.

http://pastebin.com/FfTNhNDp
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
1002 lines...holy wharf
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
haha. I told you guys, it wouldn't stop going. I just saved whatever was there and decided to post it. The bottom looks like a bunch of timeout stuff maybe from letting it continue to run? I really don't know lol

Let's just hope this is what the dev needs to be able to tell us what's going on with this screen flicker.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
@asdfghjkl and deano

Looks like the melfas-touchkey thing doesn't work (by the logcat)
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
A guy on the miui-us irc said screen flickers are kernel related most likely
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Maybe you guys could use this kitchen

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=633246

I know that it says HTC, but it also says later it supports Nexus S 4G and most GS variants.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Jamezelle is responding and will hopefully help. If anyone else wants to contact him, tweet @jamezelle
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Ah, so the logcat did help? :) Also I was thinking the same thing about the screen flicker, but isn't there another kernel that we have for MIUI?

Also, can't we use the CM7 kernel? or is that what we are using?
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
idk about the logcat and idk about the kernel. Cm7 kernels are cross-compatible and there are a few cm7 kernels for epic, but i don't think any don't have flicker. I think I remember reading that, correct me if I'm wrong though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
We have always used cm7 kernel...even the phasma kernel which fixed nothing lol

I dont doubt its kernel related seeing as how thats the only thing we were never able to change..no source = no aosp kernel :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Thought so, What about nullghost's Phoenix kernel??
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
Nothing either. they were all nearly the same kernel...
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
By the way would using a mms app for eco5 work for froyo miui and what about the cm7 mms that deno relased for all roms?
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
I/dalvikvm( 3836): Could not find method android.telephony.PhoneNumberUtils.extractNetworkPortion, referenced from method com.android.providers.contacts.T9SearchSupport.normalizeNumber

This was another recurring problem...i dont see how melfas_touchkey would affect screen but maybe...
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
Try the cm7 app. I had no idea this was released lol and the froyo one sadly has dependencies (i think) so it would FC all the time. But hey you could try it...hopefully one of them works
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
The telphone stuff is uzi removed the phone.apk cuz it fcd making your phone bascly unusable..
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
Well now I got something to do at my aunts house ;) ill try within the next couple days
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Jamezelle said to replace egl with gb leak, but I think you already did that
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Ok... tomorrow I will try to replace as much as I can from the gb leak... and see if it works :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
Should I still use that XML file, or maybe you need the same mms for that file, like if using cm7 mms use cm7 XML file?
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
@xboxfanj... could you also ask him if anything would effect the scren in any of the framework files? Thanks.. I'm heading to bed right now lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Sure sending now
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Ok thanks... just post what he says here and ill see what I can do tomorrow :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
This can't be. MIUI is based on CM7, and CM7 doesn't screen flicker?
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
Yea...your forgetting were not building off of OUR CM7...its a port from NS4G MIUI which was built on NS4G CM7 which means a lot is messed up lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] zanderman112:
Haha yeah, sounds fun

I kid, but I hope you get this working

/sig
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Yeah... I'm really suprised it bootswith no changes exept the kernel lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fatonuseni:
you just threw the cm7 kernel in there and no other changes?? and it boots?

did you throw the kernel in the zip for the rom then flash all at once or did you flash the miui for crespo4g then flash the epic cm7 kernel ontop?
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
Ok we added our CM7 kernel and i think build.prop. Also our CM7 updater script..and deleted the NS4G kernel (boot.img) and flashed and it booted lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] Art2Fly:
:0
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Here's what decad3nce said about our screen flicker : @xboxfanj That's a very general bug report. Could stem from numerous things -- buggy light sensor, bad display driver, etc
[Epic 4G Android Development] corythug:
Hmm so I guess we need some narrowing down of the issue in that case. I still haven't tried one I could get to boot though hah.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
You must have tried mine then lol. Deano's got some though

This works and fixes sd card: http://db.tt/HD9psFY
[Epic 4G Android Development] domwin:
can't wait for a stable miui for our epics
[Epic 4G Android Development] Magic Oreo:
me too :D

charchar
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Got this one to boot :-) couldnt connect to wifi so i couldn't try hancent or even send anything. Good job! Thanks will be coming in a sec. Oh should add that the screen flicker was still there and was pretty laggy at times too. But it booted so thats the main thing :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Wow, nice job guys. Sounds like you are making some progress.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
This one boot's and also has working wifi, but screen still flickers.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Ik. It's not new, I just gave him one that I knew worked.

@deano0714

Me and jamezelle are gonna be on IRC sometime, it'd probably help if you were there too. Don't know when yet though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Yeah... tell me when... and I will if I am free
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
We did a little bit today, but probably again tomorrow
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Ok I probly will hve time.. just meesge me :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
So hw accell needs to be fixed right? Would this help? Maybe this can get screen flicker gone...maybe enough to fix the rest and leave screen flicker for last...

4. Render UI with GPU

debug.sf.hw=1

Add this anywhere in the build.prop

Took this from the tweaks and scripts thread...

Or this...

9. Increase overall touch responsiveness

debug.performance.tuning=1
video.accelerate.hw=1
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Thanks man, I'm gonna try this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
@deano, idk when, but go to webchat.freenode.net and for server pick miui-epic. Anyone else who can help can go too.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
try this http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38805599/MIUI Don't mess around and this I know for sure (Hey YA).zip
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
I can help as much as I can, I am in no way a developer, but I can move files around and test and what not. Going to be out most of the day so I might not be able to help as much today.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Just as good as I am then. Could you test my build that's a few posts up when you get a chance?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Will do so later if nobody beats me to it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Yeah im able to edit jar files and a few more deeper things :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
One of the problems I think of the build is that the egl files were from the NS4G, so I changed that in my build, so that may help according to Jamezelle.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
I also attempted a new port at Sense from the Shift if anyone wants to try that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Def will man. I've always loved sense and will do anything to help out with that also.. will test tomorrow. Can't flash today becase I really need my phone for the day.

Also I would like to thank you guys for working on this, even though were not developers its nice to see some progress being made on these ports. Good work guys and keep it up!
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Thanks for all your testing and thanks for the thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
I can help test off and on this weekend. And i can move and delete files well. I will do what i can to help out. Thanks again for your efforts!
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Sorry man, didn't boot for me. Will try the next one you have.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Try again, same link, new build
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Ok, now i got time for a while. I just dl it and will try in a few and let you know.
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Installation aborted :-(
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Got 2 new files, in one, I changed one file, so that should boot and in the other, I changed a few.

@devs stock eh17 egl.cfg breaks boot.

Here's the mostly same one:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38805599/MIUI GB.zip

Here's a somewhat different one

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38805599/MIUI GingersDoHaveSoulsBread.zip

(Isn't the second name awesome)

Good luck
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Sorry bud, both installed but neither booted. Keep em coming i will test em :-) i might see if one of the devs i test for can take a peek at this if he isn't too busy. Will let you know if he can.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Well that's progress.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Try downloading this again, changed a file

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38805599/MIUI GingersDoHaveSoulsBread.zip
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
@deano or asdfghjkl

Could you look at my Sense files and see what's wrong? Out of the 3 test ones I have in the new thread, one has a status 6 error, and the other 2 freeze in cwm.
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Ok i dl it but wont have time to try for a while, will report back later when i do.
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
I may be able to look at it around 3:30 before work...hopefully lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Ok, progress but not. It now boots but its just a black screen. Lights on bottom all light up and it seems like it wants to do things. Then i tried it with the phasma (still booted but the same) kernel and also with clean kernel and genocide 1.1 but never got past splash screen. So whatever you changed worked on getting it to boot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
That's what happened when I moved xbin/bin files from another miui port (either nexus or fascinate) installed, and booted but only 2 black screen
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Ya, i wish i knew more of how this all works, would love to see this up and fully functional.
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Talk to my dev friend and he just reiterated the fact that without source code its like shooting in the dark to get it to work right. Wish i had more positive input to give. I will keep testing whatever we have and give feedback to help however i can. Thanks to you guys that have been working on this, i truly appreciate it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:

He knows quite a bit actually. He can look at a ROM and find minor flaws pretty easily. I value his opinions a lot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Try these two

[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
I totally agree with jc. Besides no one else has found the solution yet, and i am not belittling anyones efforts on this but it so far is stands true. Like i said i will keep testing and helping anyway i possibly can.
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Will try them now, thank you xboxfanj for your efforts, i do appreciate it and thanking accordingly. :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
No prob, don't really have that much better to do. lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
I gotcha. Tried all three and all three will boot but its to black screen and none of the buttons are responsive this time.

[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
We have already got passed the black screen, we are just trying to change a couple things around to be able to get pass this "screen flicker" problem we are having.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
I hae a 1.9.2 build with cell signal... it sends messages but doesn't seems to want to call... ill upload later :)...
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Thats awesome! Is the screen flicker still there?
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Unfortunately :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] sryans2004:
Ha, So most likely it is a kernel issue?
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Didnt boot :-(
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Well.. idk cm7 doesn't o I don't see why it would now when were using the cm7 kernel..

Quick everyone mug him lol I'm just gonna wait for dual core phones over kill you but also godly
[Epic 4G Android Development] atoore:
Would you mind telling me how u guys got passed that black screen issue while booting? I might be wrong but try swapping out the gralloc files in system/lib/hw with device specific ones and make sure it points to the correct gralloc.*.so in the ro.board.platform line inside build.prop
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
This one will be live in 5 minutes, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38805599/MIUI.us epic 1.9.2.zip

From NS4g, their build, but our kernel and script.

Try the one in the first post on this page too plz.
[Epic 4G Android Development] brett10:
Have you pulled any thing from the glitch kernal for the fascinate/mesmerize I think they have the same screen?
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
I cant upload now :(... sorry ill upload tomorrow after school... its not that great anyways lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
I got a pm that my last build works, but no signal or wifi and lag and flicker, but it boots
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
I will work off of this build to fix flicker and until I can fix it, I'll probably not switch miui versions. I can do it though. 1 file @ a time
[Epic 4G Android Development] greatlakesghost:
Ok last two did not go, one was sammy screen the othe was black screen. Will try your last one now. And that will probably be it for tonight for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
You try the libs and I'm gunna look at h framework files and see what's in there to change... once we get it figured out we can move on to the latest version...
[Epic 4G Android Development] atoore:
Replace the libs in system/lib/hw with the ones from cm7 and see if it fixes the screen flicker issues you guys having. Also use the build.prop from cm7
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
I don't think it's framework b/c framework is pretty much the same between gs and ns.

Try this plz.
