@thederekjay

Thanks for the hard work on MIUI!

I flashed MIUI on my girls phone and she just loves it.

I have the Galaxy S Vibrant and I'm able to get Netflix... and my girl wasn't able to get netflix.

So I made a few changes on her build prop to get it working. It broke Swype [which I fixed] and the picture frame of MIUI for some reason [doesn't allow to put a picture widget].

Do you [or anyone else] have Netflix working and streaming? Can that be implemented on the next build? [i got my hands on a MT4G and I'm going to flash miui].

Thanks again!

PS: is it just my girls camera... or is everyone else having a warped screen? [pictures come out good though]

EDIT: I should have searched. I found the Netflix app without having to edit anything.

D:
[myTouch 4G General] thederekjay:
THANKS and in the op is all the information you're looking for.. Netflix works without any build.prop edits. It's In the bottom of the op. Swype is also in the bottom of the op. The and the camera issue and fix is in the op under "known issues" and i hope you flashed the demonspeed mod????

Edit.. Photo frames work.. Just tested it???

Attempting to make someone feel stupid really isn't a productive way to assist someone asking any question, even if you deem it a stupid question. Asking questions is an integral part of any forum.

Basically it's just asking you to make a backup of your current ROM, which can be done through the recovery menu (or even through ROM Manager, which if you do not have it installed is almost an essential tool for ease of use).

[myTouch 4G General] eqjunkie829:
LOL, that was hillarious!
[myTouch 4G General] eqjunkie829:
I see your point and questions are welcomed. However the same questions being asked over and over by someone too lazy to search does get tiring.
[myTouch 4G General] CBConsultation:
First of all let's start with the facts. I never called anyone 'stupid'. I said lazy. So you were 100% incorrect. Now, if you or someone else was made to feel stupid by that then that is because of your interpretation of what I said; which points to a psychological issue of feeling stupid when someone points something out to you that you in fact were incapable of grasping with proper knowledge.

I could go into a long explanation asking how someone could be in a ROM thread without knowing what a Nand is. After all, to install a Rom you need root. Which means you have to have a custom recovery. Which then means you would have had to visit other threads about Roms and recoveries. So after being in those threads you come here and ask what a Nand is makes me call into question your intelligence; which I didn't want to do in public.

Now, some may consider me an a$$, but you overlook the fact that while you may not have liked my answer or how I presented it, IT WAS STILL AN ANSWER. I am here not only to help people, but I am here to help people HELP THEMSELVES.

A simple search would have given you the answer. But in the end most are too lazy to search and want answers spoon fed to them by us regulars. It makes you lazy and look unintelligent.

Back on topic now please.

BTW, you've already been reprimanded at least once in this thread. I would just mind your manners. JMHO of course.

This Rom is getting great battery life for me. I have been able to go past the 24 hour mark now with moderate use. If I keep it light I have seen 30 hours.

Excellent work Derek. Your new kernel is absolutely brilliant.
[myTouch 4G General] tsuujin:
What you posed was a sarcastic link to a website who's sole purpose is to make someone feel as though their inquiry was subject only to contempt and scorn. This is really not acceptable... but I don't particularly feel the need to defend the notion that a kind word and a bit of guidance is superior to sarcastic rebukes so I'll save the forums a long post and a flame war by not further arguing the point.
[myTouch 4G General] tsuujin:
I've noticed that on the recommended radio and most current version of this ROM that my GPS will no longer hold a signal. It connects very quickly and works great for a few moments, then will lose signal and refuse to reconnect until I quit navigation and re-request the directions.
[myTouch 4G General] CBConsultation:
You're incorrect. And here is proof. Now if anyone else has anything to say to me take it to PM and keep the thread free of the garbage.

The second link from Lifehacker explains it all.

Hey everyone I'm new to miui any reason that flash videos won't play in browser? I have flash installed and all flash things load there is just never a picture coming from videos only audio. Some setting up missed?
[myTouch 4G General] thederekjay:
I seriously am at the point to where I am just so tired of all the nonsense in my threads.. I didn't learn any of this **** without reading and researching. I spend many hours trying to give this community a solid rom that functions beyond most people expectations. I take a lot of my time to help people, even go above and beyond for people I like to build stuff for a device I do not even own. XDA has 3 million users! Also xda has a search function. I always welcome questions and i always offer up any help I can. But now it's to a point were I am tired of saying the something over and over. A simple search with xda search engine will yield a lot of these foolish personal attacks on eachother. If this **** don't stop I am closing this thread and will be done with the Mytouch 4g.. Let's all get along and everyone put in a little leg work and do a simple search of the thread or of xda.. With almost my 5000 post you will find something, if not then ask

[myTouch 4G General] eqjunkie829:
as its been said before the more popular a forum gets, the more idiots tend to join and ask stupid questions all the time that have been previously answered on multiple occasions. I imagine its going to come up soon that people are going to head on to other forums so the retards will be left behind. I think it was CBConsultation who said it.
[myTouch 4G General] CBConsultation:
Yep. I said it. I have been a member of over 100 forums over the last 20 years and they all turn out the same. More and more young people flock to them for answers...which is the idea. But these same young [or old for that matter] fail to utilize the search feature that almost every single forum has built in these days. they bring along with them this feeling of self entitlement and ask questions that have been answered over and over again. Sometimes demanding answers. And more often than not unhappy with how they get answered. I know myself and [out on a limb...Derek] are tired of seeing the same questions posed time and again, without even bothering to search first. It's ridiculous.

That's not even bringing up the rude people who demand answers or upon getting one want to argue its validity or basis. The last forum I left was Crackberry [as yes, I owned many Blackberries]. It became nothing but a flame forum because the younger kids had no respect for the senior members and they never searched. Which led to senior members being too harsh with our replies and hurt the kids' sensitive feelings, and they in turn lashed out and flamed.

Seriously people, this is a cycle. It WILL happen here. It's happening now as we speak. More kids are hopping on Android and they barrel into these forums too lazy to search or research. I'm tired of it. I just wish I had some viable solution, like a mandatory no post period for new users, or a system in place to prevent laziness. Maybe an 'Already answered' button much like the 'thanks' button.

But I know that these forums are filling fast with lazy, self entitled members who just want to be spoon fed answers.

Hey Derek I'm having an issue with custom auto-brightness, when ever I change the values to increase by 21 or 25 value-sooner or later the phone seems to change it by itself. The default settings for auto are or the high side, so in the darker areas my eyes take more of a hit. I don't remember having this issue on prev versions of miui, and I don't have any 3rd party apps that might be triggering this.

TDJ has done such a good job that other sites [Android Central etc...] have noted that the MIUI Rom is one of the most downloaded Rom's for the Android platform.

The amount of work and effort that has gone into making this a reality is beyond recognition.

Great work from a great developer. I hope this thread can straighten itself out. I would love to think that the people who run this are as good as it's dev.
[myTouch 4G General] :
What site are you trying to look at the stock browser doesn't have the standard htc sense enhance flash performance on it. So you may need to use a different internet browser.
[myTouch 4G General] Ace42:
The rom has flash in it, I can watch videos from youtube site through the miui browser.
[myTouch 4G General] negreenfield:
I've used MIUI before but a long time ago so I'm a bit new to all the new features. Are there any known issues with battery monitoring? Is it recommended to only use it if you are having issues? I was getting constant settings FCs while trying to look at stats, probably monitoring since Friday. I turned off monitoring and back on and it reset stats and worked fine, no FCs, super fast.

Just curious, didn't see anything in OP about this so hopefully I'm not asking a well known question.
[myTouch 4G General] :
Certain sites aren't optimize for mobile. YouTube site is though. Flash performance is better when device have sense. Than aosp. This is why certain sites won't play video on stock and on sense. Easy solution is use another browser opera has better flash performance. as well.
[myTouch 4G General] Ace42:
Oh I thought in your post you meant that flash didn't work at all, slight case of misunderstanding here. I know what you mean though about sense vs aosp.
[myTouch 4G General] :
I have no problems with the rom i just trying to help the guy who said videos are only sound for him. Easiest way is to just get an replacement app instead of asking how to fix it.

Derek, could you please take a look at this thread, the OP is new and can't post in the dev section just yet. His problem is that GO creates a white box on boot up while using miui, it's a issue I had too-but i've switched to LPP since it has better widget themes.

And can you take a look at this too if you can, maybe it can be edited to work w/ miui too. I scavenged this some time ago from some build, but not sure which.:confused:

What kind of wireless (cell) signal are you typically getting? I noticed when I had poor signal or no signal my battery life dropped through the floor, no matter what phone I had. It always seemed like a defect to me.

Also, when you charge your battery up, how full does it get? E.g. 'Battery Calibration' lists me with 3770mV at 53%. I forget what it showed when full, but I'll see if I can remember to edit this post with the # at full. Batteries can be defective (my wife's Droid X got a bad one, it lasted 5 minutes and heated when charged, ugh).

[Edit: 4212mV at 100%]
[myTouch 4G General] CBConsultation:
Install only the apps you absolutely need. Uninstall everything that you do not need. Then start messing with the settings. The firewall feature built into MIUI is a good place to start tweaking. setCPU profiles. Brightness. There are so many things I wouldn't know where to begin. Maybe I will put together a tutorial.
[myTouch 4G General] frankth3frizz:
full wipe means partition?
[myTouch 4G General] excarnate:
Autostarts.

A huge pain to configure, largely due to the nature of the beast, but a wonderful way to control when an app kicks off.

Also, if you can identify 3rd party apps that run more than you feel they should, consider substitutes or doing without them. Dredge through the reviews on Market, a lot of times you can find battery hogs through the comments.

Finally, if you load up a fresh copy of MIUI, and set up without any 3rd party apps even if just for a day, you can get a baseline. If it is ~10 hours, well, see my other post :) I was getting great battery life with whatever was current around the end of June, better than CM7, maybe about double what you are seeing (i.e. it may not be the ROM).

It's just the way it is, I think Sense will be your only cure. Adobe 10.3 is just buggy, thus your videos aren't functioning correctly. That plus the fast that some sites aren't optimized for mobile.

yea thats pretty much what ive noticed and come to terms with. the htc browser will play 99% of everything on a web page but its the ONLY browser that does as far as im concerned. all sense roms i have tried, browser is great, all other roms like royal ginger and miui for instance and their stock browsers just dont work properly for on web page videos. i havent found one in the market that is any better either. maybe someday a flash update will fix all of that but in the meantime, thanks for your input, ill just have to deal.

What site are you trying to watch opera should basically be the same as a sense browser I can play even sites not optimize for mobile that don't play on on the stock browser with opera.

I have seen other people post about it, but never have seen a solution. With MIUI my phone stays on 3G rarely does it ever show the H icon. I have the latest GB Radio and I know I am in a H coverage area because on other ROMs it shows 4G and H coverage at all times where I live. Any ideas? Maybe because MIUI has that 3G preferred option it's causing it to only get 3G or only show the 3G icon?
[myTouch 4G General] Ace42:
3G preferred will allow UMTS, HSPA+[4g] to connect, I get an H in the status bar while in an area with the coverage. Your radio may be related to the signal you're getting now, I have the stock and can get HSPA+ just fine, others with the panache radio seem to get good data speeds.

I'm pretty sure MIUI can't get 4G since there's no 4G in China. I get the H icon all the time at my house, but if you go look at it under about phone it says HSPDA which is different from HSPA+. HSPA+ is 4G where HDPDA is "3.5"G. I might be totally wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's what I read somewhere else. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
