MIUI Arcified Android OS 2.2 Froyo​

This is a modification of Cobrato's MIUI Froyo Rom.

A special thanks to

cobrato

Thank you

wolfbreak,Jerplea,Zdzihu,DooMLord and all devs

Screenshots attached at the bottom of the post

What's new-

1) Launcher -

Many people don't like MIUI launcher because it's iOS style. So I have changed the launcher to xperia arc launcher. You cannot use MIUI launcher on this rom. I had to delete that because I found it was somehow affecting the overall speed of Xperia Arc launcher.

2) Lockscreen -

I know that MIUI Gingerbread rom Lockscreen looks very cool so I modified the original lockscreen on Cobrato's rom to look like MIUI Gingerbread lockscreen. Please read the bug report given below.

3) Camera -

This is not a big thing. Camera is fully functional except zoom. But on Cobrato's original MIUI, there were 2 camera apps. I have kept the MIUI camera in this rom.

4) Widgets -

I have added Arc Widgets in this Rom

5) Default theme -

I changed the default theme. (Again I'll say please read the bug report given below.

Working - Everything

BUG Report -

1) LOCKSCREEN ISSUE -

While changing the lockscreen to look more sleek and neat, I made a mistake. If you apply any theme using theme manager, then the ockscreen reverts back to the one which is there in Cobrato's rom. I couldn't fix the issue.

But there is a solution. You cannot apply themes doesn't mean you can't customize this rom. You can use theme manager, but just enable 'edit theme settings' option. Then you will be presented with lots of options which you can customize. Do not change lockscreen, all other things you can customize. You can change wallpapers, it won't affect lockscreen.

2) ? (to be reported if any)

Sorry for delay, actually I had planned to upload it once I finished studying, but my studies got delayed and so the rom couldn't be uploaded on time.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kryptoner:
I was not satisfied with the touch sensitivity in the application drawer using go launcher ex, that's why I chose arc launcher.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
stroll over to the the development section and check them all out for yourself and yes you can switch out kernels. Also there is an app called kernel manager to check out kernels. One more thing its obvious you are not a chronic flasher like a lot of us so please remember nandroid and read up- As the saying goes here "Google is your Friend". Especially all the OP's of kernels and roms... hate to see you brick your device... Happy flashing

hmmm, can you prove this fact. i have aosp rom now and use my wifi while at home since it uses less battery than mobile data, but the wifi stays connected, full bars at all times im actually able to walk out to my truck and stay connected to my wifi where as before i rooted and was connected to wifi, i would lose wifi connection once i stepped out the door.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelcripes:
Hello, I am currently in Spain for 6 weeks for work. I contacted T-Mobile for an unlock code for my phone prior to leaving. I got a sim card today, popped it in and booted up, but my unlock code doesn't work. Does flashing roms have any effect on the unlock code working or not? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Its not easy being here without a phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikime:
What's happening exactly after you boot?

Because I'm also trying to use a Vibrant in Europe and I don't even get to an unlock code... it just boots as if no SIM is in, and doesn't do anything with it (it shows it's in there, but I can't choose operators, join networks etc.).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
The SIM you have probably has different bands than what the phone can support. Check GSM Arena for what bands the Vibrant supports. If you are sure its supported, it's probably that the phone can't read the SIM. If it can read it, it will ask for an unlock code.

@ OP: ROM flashing does NOT affect whether a phone is locked or unlocked. The code you were given is wrong then. It could be possible that you wrote it wrong since they spell it over the phone usually. I would contact T-Mobile AGAIN and be a bit upset over getting the wrong code.

Alternatively you can use an app called Galaxy S Unlocker to unlock the phone. But try calling T-Mobile first. It's faster and easier.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dikime:
What does then (exc. from finding an unlock code)?

Cause I'm stuck, GSM Arena says it's a Quad-Band phone and supports the European frequencies.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] }{Alienz}{:
Once unlocked, nothing should affect the phone's unlocked status.

I beleive carriers and manufacturers can lock it again but I'm not sure of the procedure. For your issue, GET the correct unlock code and you are good to go.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelcripes:
I was going in circles with T-Mobile. Ended up buying sgs unlock off the market and was unlocked in less than a minute. The T-Mobile support staff are useless.

[Galaxy S II General] kawa636r:
Hi people.

I have removed all Samsung customization, fitted in supercurio kernel, changed the Samsung launcher with stock nexus s launcher and today i have done a total tryout of the phone.

From 09.00 am to 20.30 pm, with a very heavy use (Bluetooth ad2pvfor music in my car, over 2hours of calls, 25 sms, and two hours of wifi using itunes remote control) i get now a 33% remaining.

Coming from a nexus s suoeramoled 9020 the difference is a lot.

And with a miui or a cyanogen i think will be best.

If someone would like to help me to extract this dump, i will be happy to share my work with all the community!

Either way, that's the kind of battery life I want on my SGS2!

This today with an intensive use and now 30% remaining. From the 9am to 6am, very high usages, and remaining 30%.

Best battery i have seen in my life.

I now have an EVO on Metropcs $40 plan. I was told that there is now no way to get the internet working with Metro. After reading the forums, and seeing some video I can see people have been able to get the internet working, as well as 4G.

If this is still possible, is there a more recent guide on how to do all of this?

[Galaxy S II General] jgittins:
I've found that many apps that use my google account for authentication simply don't work properly on the Galaxy S 2.

My Tracks - uploading a track to google maps doesn't work, it just times out

Google Goggles - go to settings, enable search history, saving goes on forever

I hooked my phone up to my development PC to watch the logcat log when attempting to do one of these actions. This is what I can see

Is everyone's SGS2 doing this, or just mine? It seems like a fairly major bug if it affects everyone.
[Galaxy S II General] jgittins:
Bump. Can someone else please test with google goggles or my tracks, see if you have the same problem as me.
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Already posted that My Tracks has an uploading problem .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] lgkahn:
same problem here with goggles.. saving just hangs..
[Galaxy S II General] Jon_V:
Can confirm same - my tracks, and d7 google reader affected. also heard of google analytics being the same..
[Galaxy S II General] jgittins:
It's not just my tracks, this bug could potentially affect hundreds of apps. I've already found several that produce the same result. My Tracks, Google Goggles, Andlytics, Noom and CardioTrainer.
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Question anyone tried latest firmware update in this regard . KE2

jje
[Galaxy S II General] robbiekhan:
Youtube has a similar issue for me (as does Goggles).

I'm on KE2 and had it in KE1 as well but never checked on KDD. Sim free retail GS II.

Youtube says this when I try to upload a video:

Failed to retreive account information

Edit*

Fixed the Youtube issue by signing out of Google from Youtube and signing in with my Youtube username.
[Galaxy S II General] twixyz:
Confirmed. Goggles hangs while enabling history. Signing in to YouTube was a hassle, but eventually it worked. Don't know how though.
[Galaxy S II General] jgittins:
Yes I have updated to the latest firmware and it didn't make any difference. I guess it's not affecting enough apps to really cause a problem for most people, but as a developer I used Andlytics quite a bit on my old phone, I now wish I had waited for the HTC sensation instead of the SGS2.
[Galaxy S II General] hazart:
Same here on KE2.
[Galaxy S II General] lyttinen:
Using KXWE1 and noticed same problem with D7 Reader. Any way to notify Samsung about this.
[Galaxy S II General] olofen:
Anyone know which company to inform about this? Is it a google problem och Samsung problem?

Seems like its google...There is even an issue up on my tracks forum. Can't post links but its issue nr 255 on the my tracks code page.
[Galaxy S II General] happel92:
Same here with the hanging on saving on goggles
[Galaxy S II General] cadguycad:
same problem here with mytracks.
[Galaxy S II General] aussiebum:
My Google Goggles hang on the "saving" issue got fixed after I uninstalled and reinstalled from Market. The previous install of Goggles had been restored from Titanium Backup from my HD2.

So probably not so much of a Samsung/Google issue.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
There's an update for Tracks and Maps, have any of you tried to see if the problem's fixed?
[Galaxy S II General] olofen:
Just tried updating and uploading. Same result, stuck at authenticating to google maps.

So its a no fix. Samsung Galaxy S II
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
Just spotted this on Google Support .

Firstly yes, My Tracks is no longer able to upload directly. the functionality was turned off a few days ago...

But the import SHOULD work. Alas it is occasionally broken like this. the only consolation I can offer is its probably not your fault. And you just have to wait.

The alternative, is instead upload your KML file to fusion tables. Can plot a map from fusion tables. Dont get it in My Maps, of course, but you get a map.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Actully Google just released a update to My Tracks - I got the notification yesterday :)

They now upload to Fusion Tables. From there can import to Google Maps.

Recommend continugin this on the My Tracks forum

http://groups.google.com/group/mytracks

As to Fusion Tables and SGS 2 .

Still same problem .

jje
[Galaxy S II General] plastix:
Same issue here.
[Galaxy S II General] ma10:
I have the same error (KE7 firmware) but I'm messing around with the Android sample code in google APIs using the AccountManager to authenticate... looks like it's a common problem with the SGSII.
[Galaxy S II General] bblanski:
Any fix for this yet, would like to use cardiotrainer
[Galaxy S II General] JJEgan:
No contact Google or report it on cardiotrainer nobody has bothered much reporting issue .

[Galaxy S II General] Ke11ett:
I was able to solve the problem with MyTracks. If you change your language to English US then try to upload you will get all the permission boxes popup and it will upload fine.

You can then swap back to your normal language and it will continue to work.

I don't use goggles to test if the same trick works.
[Galaxy S II General] Jon_V:
Brilliant.

Can confirm same for (at least) my tracks and d7 google reader.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] jgittins:
Yes this seems to have fixed the issue in Andlytics for me as well. Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] rendez2k:
Just trying D7 Reader Free on my S2, no amount of changing language settings is letting me log in. Any ideas or further developments on this issue?
[Galaxy S II General] MenionAsamm2:
Hi guys,

even I change locale to whatever, still same problem. My Tracks, Andlytics, Locus My Maps editor ... all ends with same error as in first post. If anyone find any other workaround how to fix this, it should be more then welcome.
[Galaxy S II General] plastix:
Is it going to turn out to be some really daft and simple issue? I mean, if it works when you change the Language to US (it did for me on Google Goggles), perhaps it is something like the date format in a text string being sent during authentication? i.e. changing language updates the regional settings.
[Galaxy S II General] (•.•):
try to use wlan instead of 3g, this maybe helps..

I know that it is not a connection problem.. google just makes you think it is, when in fact its about to register your data.
[Galaxy S II General] andlytics:
I'm the developer of Andlytics and found a solution for my app. (Andlytics user Paulo told me about this)

I think the problem is related to the translation strings which Samsung changed from the default ones on the SGS2.

The original String which pops up on authentication requests is:

<string name="permission_request_notification_with_subtitle">Permission Requested\nfor account %s</string>

Samsung changed it to something without the '\n', that's why a IndexOutOfBounds error occurs (AccountManagerService.java):

final String titleAndSubtitle = mContext.getString(R.string.permission_request_notification_with_subtitle, account.name);
final int index = titleAndSubtitle.indexOf('\n');
final String title = titleAndSubtitle.substring(0, index); <--IndexOutOfBounds
final String subtitle = titleAndSubtitle.substring(index + 1);

The solution for me was to use a different method on authentication requests:

public AccountManagerFuture<Bundle> getAuthToken (Account account, String authTokenType, Bundle options, Activity activity, AccountManagerCallback<Bundle> callback, Handler handler)

instead of what I was using before:

public AccountManagerFuture<Bundle> getAuthToken (Account account, String authTokenType, boolean notifyAuthFailure, AccountManagerCallback<Bundle> callback, Handler handler)
[Galaxy S II General] drmacinyasha:
Just for the hell of it: This bug is present on the Epic 4G Touch. GG Samsung.
[Galaxy S II General] daemonsan:
After reading about various I9100 users solving this by switching to English (US) I figured I'd try something similar. Since the only other language available on a Sprint Epic Touch 4G is Spanish I switched to Spanish, went back to Goggles and tried to save --> SUCCESS!

Now switch back to English and proceed to take stupid pictures to see just how much Google can recognize.
[Galaxy S II General] DavidWCS:
I came across this 2011 post when searching: "Google Authentication problems" .

BTW I'm not using my Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket, but using a Samsung Galaxy S3 d2att and a Samsung Galaxy S3 T999 running CrDroid 3.8.9 Custom ROM.

Seems like apk's which installed & ran fine, now having Google Authentication problems. Warning such as: 'Google Framework . . . ' , 'phone not compatible . . . ' , "Google Playstore yada yada yada' .

Appears that Google requires that app developers to include more stringent something or other. Looks like Google trying to freeze out older phones, Custom ROM's, rooted phones etc.

Anyone else notice this, or having problems with Google messing things up?

Thx

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

BTW I am totally free of Google; no Google Play Store, no Google Pay, no Google Framework, no Gapps, no Google spyware, no Google bloatware, no Google tracking etc.

I download all my apps as APK's which are readily available on the Net ( Google them . . . just kidding! ).

My older Samsung S3 i747 is a 'd2att' originally locked to Rogers, in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Then switched over to MTS (Manitoba Telephone System). Now running on Bell Canada. My replacement is also a Samsung S3 T999, originally running T-Mobile in Arizona, now running on Bell Canada.
[Galaxy S II General] mto71:
I had the same problem with the Endomondo app on the SGS2. Fixed it! installed android 9.0.
[Galaxy S II General] DavidWCS:
So just to be clear, after installing stock Android 9.0, there is no Google Authentication problem?

Are you rooted? Do you have custom recovery? Did your phone come with an unlocked bootloader (like the S3) ?
[Galaxy S II General] mto71:
just to be clear, i had a custom rom running android 4.4 (OMNI or so)

I'm not rooted i assume, but my SGS2 is ;)

now i installed [ROM][UNOFFICIAL][9.0.0][r46][I9100] LineageOS 16.0 and the Google Authentication problem is gone... (at least i can login to Endomondo with my google account now)

TWRP 3.3.1-1 recovery
[Galaxy S II General] DavidWCS:
Hmm, no stock O/S but you were running an old custom ROM (based on Android 4.4). And your apps were running fine, no Google Authentic problems, until recently.

Big O/S upgrade to Lineage 16.0 & your S2 runs fine, no Google Authentic problem. Wow! Good work.
