I'm already using a lot of vm tuning (from Rodriguez), this is what I have now:

echo "0" > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness;
echo "95" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio;
echo "1" > /proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure;
echo "4096" > /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes;
echo "1" > /proc/sys/vm/oom_kill_allocating_task;
echo "0" > /proc/sys/vm/page-cluster;
echo "5" > /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode;
echo "0" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_expire_centisecs;
echo "6000" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs;
echo "60" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio;

This is run at every boot on 07tweaks. Seems like this script you're linking will be ran later, as 97ramscript, so will overwrite the values I have here. If it indeed is snappier with the new values, I'll try to use those for the next release.

As for the lowmemory settings, you can set those with a2sd gui - I think it is the agressive setting that is closer to what Juwe11 is using.

Anyway, I'll see how it works on my N1, and if I like it (and there are no voices against it) I'll change the tweaks for next release.

I have some issues flashing this rom.

well to be precise i am coming from cyanogenmod7(stable), when i flash this rom it boots up successfully but when i try to flash the darktremors a2sd script over it my phone dosent get past the splash screen! And moreover i wiped everything again and then i flashed this rom and then the script but still it dosent boot up!

i am guessing that there is something wrong with my sd-ext, but it is already ext 3.

i just dont understand why my phone dosent get past the splash screen?

any help will be much appreciated :)

thanks in advance

edit: i wiped everything and flashed the rom again without flashing the darktremors script and my phone successfully booted up again! i
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Has you just found out, you don't need the darktremor script - MIUI already has A2SD+ support. You only need to run su followed "a2sd repair" on a terminal to enable a2sd.
[Nexus One Android Development] husnain17:
I guess i figured it out. Now everything is working well :D
[Nexus One Android Development] ocujos:
This is your best release so far. I've flashed Wildmonks kernel and am yet to find any issues.

Rod's ROM has a feature that enables Wi-Fi automatically (if disabled) when I start an app requiring GPS, eg Google maps. This further reduces time to get a sattelite lock.

Is this a MIUI feature or something that Rod's developed?
[Nexus One Android Development] ocujos:
Actually, there is one issue already mentioned in the thread: built-in keyboard doesn't display characters when input language other than English is selected (I've tried Serbian). This works fine on Gingerbread keyboard from the market.

This worked fine on Rod's ROM. I wonder if he's made some changes to get it to work?
[Nexus One Android Development] xavierjohn22:
It is not something developed.

Miui has that feature being develop from 1.5.xx as I can remember.

It started as two actually, it turns automatically data connection and wifi connection to assist gps positioning. Then two weeks ago wlan was remove. Still mobile network connection assisted is there as a feature. It will auto turn on once gps is active and an application to use it is launch. It last for approx 60secs then turn off.

So short story, the wifi was there before, if rods release is out of date then his rom has the wifi auto turned on and off.

But china remove it because their also clever. Out there they figure less usage since not much uses wifi while driving or out in the open. Use auto data connection only. Which can still be toggle on and off if users dont want it.

Rods using another android keyboard.

The stock miui rom has a different keyboard which was modded by the chinese.

Miui dev or mui android has a different keyboard.

And miui au too has a different android keyboard.

I am not sure if this rom uses the stock miui rom keyboard. That's the reason if it is stock.

You can just flashed keyboards over at addons where these keyboards are. I think I have an addon for the miui dev keyboard in my thread which replaces the stock kb.

Hey J, ive been using your xpart version for a couple of days and so far so good. I might be able to test something for you related to xpart.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
I've kept everything at stock, but indeed I also miss having at least the dictionaries. The stock keyboard is missing them. I've been using the gingerbread keyboard, maybe I'll add that as default to the ROM in a future version.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Just keep me updated if it is working, and tell me of any bugs so I can try to fix them... :)

I'm glad it works for you.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
i never understood why anyone would use the stock keyboards. i always found them vastly inferior to others.

SwiftKey X has much better prediction and correction if you are the typing kind

but for me Swype ist my favourite its just sooo fast and nice to use once you get used to it.

Swype is free in beta (and works with miui, its just a little hard to get to run) and swiftkey is lik 2$ on the market and seen as the keyboard is the thing you use most i think thats a fair price ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
I never, never, got along with a predictive swipe keyboard. Either they don't have a Portuguese, or Italian dictionary, or the dictionary is woefully incomplete, it always gave me crappy results in those two languages. French and in particular English were a little better, but still I always found typing on a swipe keyboard much slower and error prone than on a regular keyboard with a good T9 dictionary. But I have friends who share your opinion, so it should work for some people... :)
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
i do a good bit of typing/swyping in portuguese and so far im pretty satisfied with the results.

the good thing about both swype and swiftkey is, that if a word isnt recognized you can add it to the dictionary in an instance and next time it will be there for you.

so even if some words arent there off the bat its just one small step to get rid of that annoyance.

as for german and english (my two main languages) they are both pretty much flawless.

both swype and swiftkey have new versions out (Swype 3.0 & SwiftkeyX) so if you havent tried them for a while i would give them another chance ;)

(damn i sound like i work for those companies doing advertising here xDDD)
[Nexus One Android Development] walliester:
Jb, I can't for some reason install the 3.0 swype beta, it install but when I get to the point to verified its gray . and it tells me to disable swype when officialy is on android?
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
Great!

How come the new widgets, icons don't appear? Nor with GO launcher?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Maybe pseudoheld can help you here? I'll see if I can get the swype keyboard in the meantime, but he is using it.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
They do - choose for instance the clock "widget 2x4", then while still in "edit or add" mode tap the edit icon in the top right to see what local and online 2x4 clock widgets you have... I know it isn't very intuitive, but you can get all the online widgets like that.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
but I really can't use them if I'm using a different launcher?
[Nexus One Android Development] tnicko:
Mine's working. I always do a fresh install of swype instead of restoring. I kep the installer on my sd card and install that first. When it prompts for which version, I always download the full version. I do this of course when I'm on wi-fi. then I let it finish. Immediately after, I reboot.

The one thing I've noticed on all MIUI variants, is the vibrate doesn't work for swype. a little annoying for me anyway.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
Hey jb, all of the sudden I have no sounds when getting calls and fc's when I try to go to sound settings. Any ideas?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
I had that on the last version after restoring something with the MIUI backup, I think it was the wifi settings. Now the only thing I restore with MIUI backup is the screen layout.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
I don't think so, I think they are for the MIUI launcher only.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
But that didn't answer my question. I didn't restore anything.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
hey mate, check out this post. worked fine for me :

cheers!
[Nexus One Android Development] walliester:
wow thanks ,i try it 2 times and on the third one it worked properly.....
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Well, the only workaround I found was to install a sound from a theme, either using the theme manager and choosing "customize current theme" or by scrolling to the last sounds in the list, the ones with a sdcard something name.

In the end I wiped and reflashed, and everything was fixed. I backed up the screens with MIUI and the accounts, apps and data with Titanium, and restored everything afterwards without problems.
[Nexus One Android Development] husnain17:
By far this rom has been very stable for me. :D
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Hi guys, just a little heads up.

I've been using Juwe's vm tuning for the last couple of days, and it seems way smoother than the tuning I was using before (from Rod), If there is no opposition, I'll make that the default in my next release.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
This problems turned to be due to installing Swiftkey X beta keyboard, even after uninstall, I still get the FCs, so I had to wipe and start over. Any ideas why this happens with Swiftkey X?
[Nexus One Android Development] bunnahabhain:
That would be nice - for me it is very smooth and stable as well!

Your next release must be very interesting. This weeks changelog focuses on stability. Together with all the applied tweeks it will be a perfect release :D
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
strange. i have swiftkeyX running no problem (on ext + dalvik on ext)

sure its swiftkeys fault?

cool! go ahead. i always like new stuff to play with!
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Hi folks....sorry I haven't posted in a while. My daughter has my Nexus One now and she was out of town. She is coming back tonight. I'm on the Swype Beta so if there are still install issues, let me know and I will see how it goes on my end, if there is still a need for installation issues. Plus I need to update the N1 to current version here too.

[Nexus One Android Development] walliester:
hey doc i follow the link that pseudoheld post it a page back ,here is the link http://forums.androidcentral.com/incredible-rooting-roms-hacks/67226-swype-miui.html, i try it 2 times and on the third time it work for me,you don't have to register to download the installer,you might still have it on the email from were you register for the 3.0 Betta ..nice to see you here..
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
most probably, because I didn't a fresh install, no FC's, even after several reboots. But as soon as I insstalled swiftkey X, I get FC's. I tried rebooting, wiping cahce + dalvik, nothing worked. I also uninstalled it, rebooted, and still get FC's going to Sound Settings. Even i tried changing sound from Theme Manager, still same problem, so i had to do a fresh install again.
[Nexus One Android Development] ginsoakedboy81:
I had the same issue and I had to do a fresh install too. Don't know what caused it but I think I was tinkering with themes download after which sound settings FCd.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
I tried installing Swiftkey X once more and and Sound settings FC'ed again. I guess I won't be using Swiftkey for a while.

Any other keyboard recommendations?
[Nexus One Android Development] bunnahabhain:
Buy Swiftkey (normal version). I am confident with that.

Why using a betastatus-keyboard in a beta-status build? :D

P.S.: Sometimes it helps deleting data of the app in titanium backup
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
the beta has been shed and swiftkey X is official available in the market. if you bought the old swiftkey you can upgrade for free to the new version.

alteratives:

Swype. also still beta but awesome

http://beta.swype.com/
[Nexus One Android Development] ginsoakedboy81:
Not sure if it will help you pinpoint the issues you are facing but I am using swiftkey x, and flex t9 keyboards without sound settings force close issues. I guess these are not the culprits.
[Nexus One Android Development] himmatwala:
1.7.22 is out. When do you think will it be ready for download?
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Thanks for the info.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
It will take some time... XJ will delay his release of the ROM and of the multi-language pack, and since I depend on his language pack...
[Nexus One Android Development] net.cat:
Take your time man ;-)
[Nexus One Android Development] nicosime:
I've noticed a little issue using stock gingerbread keyboard: there is no numbers for each letter on the first row!

Can you fix it? :)

Anyway, that's a gorgeous work!! I'm glad to use it!!

Ciao :D

edit: i've tried a full wipe twice... but nothing!
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
That question has showed up already, and there are two alternatives:

Define the languages for the keyboard (independent from the phone language), and when using a English keyboard you'll have the numbers in the top row;

Install one fo the HTC-IME keyboards from XJ thread (post #2, addons, is here), which is what I do, since those even have the dictionaries

I'm still waiting for the multi-language pack, but hopefully we'll have the new ROM today.
[Nexus One Android Development] bunnahabhain:
Can anyone tell me where i can find the new "evolution keyboard" - or is ist just for the chinese people?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
It wasn't in 1.5.15/17, and I haven't yet checked 1.5.22, we'll have to wait for the MIUI devs to release it.

[Nexus One Android Development] safeplayer22:
Hi, I came over from using Rod's MIUI since he stopped supporting it.

I find this rom very smooth and nice.

I've found a problem. I am getting FC's when I use Google plus' instant upload. anyone else having this problem? When I was using Rod's rom, instand upload was not a problem. Anytime I took a pic, it would automatically upload to m Picasa account. Now it will not do that and if I try to do it manually, it gives me the FC.

I find that it gives me the FC only when I try to get access from "from your phone".
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
I haven't had any problem with instant upload, all photos I've taken since I started using G+ have been uploaded without any problem. Did you do a full wipe before flashing?
[Nexus One Android Development] safeplayer22:
^^^

Going to do a full wipe now and reinstall. Will report back.

Ok, full wipe did it. did not need to reflash rom.

[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
jbbandos, hopefully you don't plan to quit like the others? Only three MIUI flavors left, and A2SD in .us is busted. So it's stock, or QND.

Does GPS actually work in this ROM? Is compass accurate?

I guess it'll be a day or so before the new lang pack. What additional features will be in the new release? Can I install now, or should I wait? (Have MIUI.us now, and it is quite busted)
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Don't worry, I'm now working on it, as the multi-lang pack has just been release.

I answered you in the us thread, but I see that maybe my answer was completely wrong... It happens (I hope not very often). :)

In the 1.7.22 release I'll have the same stuff as in the us and stock, with added tunnings, a2sd gui, titanium, and jackpal terminal. And of course, the multi-language translations, courtesy of all the nice guys posting them on XJ's thread and of course thanks to XJ himself.
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Sounds great! Already installed the current one, but looking forward to the new.

Uh oh, getting FCs on Settings|SoundSettings. Doesn't happen on Display or Theme, but does on Sound.
[Nexus One Android Development] Obsy:
Me too, it's ok but after some restarts I getting FC on Sound settings and neither calls and alarm don't rings
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
That has happened to me and to another user before, and it seems to be related to some themes.

What theme are you using? I had a terrible experience this week with one with a Chinese name, that looks like a leather notebook. When I noticed it had filled up my data partition, corrupted some settings, and that without any warning. I went back to default and had the data partition with enough free space again. Unfortunately it looks like I'll need to do another full wipe, as now I am unable to play music over bluetooth on my car...
[Nexus One Android Development] lcchan1:
No problem here, G+ is working great.
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
I had some Chinese-named theme, so switched to HTC Sense, and same problem.

Very worrisome that the phone might not ring. I need it for business.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
That one is indeed very strange, I never had it not ringing. However, after the theme related settings corruption and FC, I had to do a full wipe (and reflash, to reinstall a2sdgui, terminal and titanium) before everything worked again.
[Nexus One Android Development] Obsy:
I use Xpart version and theme 1982strand's Twisted MIUI V2, the dark one. After full wipe and reflash it's ok but like I said after some restarts it's happened again...
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
XPART hates restarts. Most people recommend you do a shutdown followed by a power up instead of a restart. Apparently with a restart the sd card might not be unmounted correctly. :(
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
1.7.22 finally up, have fun!
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
great!

dumb question, I currently on .17, should I do full wipe to install .22 or wipe cache + dalvik?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Cache+dalvik should be enough - I've wiped fully this time, but that because I still had some settings corruption from that crazy theme that ate my data partition...
[Nexus One Android Development] lcchan1:
wipe 2 caches worked for me.
[Nexus One Android Development] Obsy:
Thanks! You have right, sometimes need to restart again because sdcard isn't recognized..
[Nexus One Android Development] net.cat:
did u included the RAM script? Or we can flash this:

http://htcfanboys.com/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=248

??
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
It is in, I added the settings to the 07tweaks script, replacing the existing ones.
[Nexus One Android Development] gui.aguiar:
jbbandos,

I'm using Rod's mod and I'm going to install your mod!

I have the original SD card. So I think that the best for me is install the A2SD version... What do You think?

How should I install it?

Thanks!
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
If you're using Rod's mod, then it is xpart. A variant of the one we use, but still xpart. So it is up to you which one to choose... My advice is to do a full wipe, since Rod's latest release is a little old by now, and the changes between ROMs might create incompatibilities.
[Nexus One Android Development] gui.aguiar:
I'm using Rod' old version... It's A2SD version! Should I try Xpart with my original SD Card?

I will do a full wipe... But should I partioneted?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
In that case, stay with A2SD. You can also try XPART with a fat32 and an ext4 partition only, if you want, but A2SD is more stable.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
my phone (or microsd) really doesnt like a2sd. constant crashes. sent you a pm jb.

will be installing latest version now and trying to only use the minimum ammount of apps, so as to avoid a2sd for the time being...
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
That really is strange, a2sd is relatively stable. Tell me how it goes if you don't enable a2sd.

You can also try repartitioning your card with amon ra recovery, after backing up the fat32 partition, of course.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
i'll just continue our PM conversation here incase others suffer the same problem.

i've repartitioned/formated several times. no avail. how do i check for bad sectors?

right now i've wiped cache and dalvik and rebooted...its stuck at the static X for about 5minutes already but i had this once before.

all sorts of apps dont show up anymore, superuser seems corrupted (other apps like terminal not getting SU rights)

i think the SD card is corrupted. so yeah how do i check for the sectors (running ubuntu as OS)
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
:) Good - I'm using it too. When creating the fat32 file system, with mkfs.vfat, pass the parameter "-c" to have it check for bad clusters.

The ext4 partition can be tested with fsck.ext4, pass "-fycc" and it will force the check, with a read-write test.

None of these should return any number of bad sectors. If they do, your sd card is trashed.

Another thing you can try is connecting via adb shell with the N1 in recovery. After doing a full wipe using the recovery, mount the data and system partitions. In the shell, run "dmesg" and look for bad blocks. If more than 4 or 5 for each of these, then it is your N1 that is going bad, and you should send it for repair (after reflashing the stock rom and recovery, of course). Lets hope this last possibility isn't real.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
ok will try it tomorrow...getting kinda late and i dont sleep well when im stressed out about my damn phone ;)

thanks for your help, i will tell you how it went tomorrow!
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
feck it...;)

looking for badblocks on my SD right now with:

badblocks -sv /dev/sdb

if that doesnt turn anything up i will try your way of searching

edit:

no bad blocks returned by "badblocks" in read only mode.

will now try read/write nondestructive, then try the destructive mode (its empty anyhow so data loss isn't bad ;) )
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Indeed my phone is not ringing with the odd theme and .17. Must get to .22 right away as I need the phone for business.

But when I go to do the MIUI restore I do not want to restore the theme and stick with default, yet in Restore there is no System item for theme. How do I keep from restoring theme?
[Nexus One Android Development] hackermail:
Just installed xpart after full wipe and getting fc in sound settings. Tried to apply a different theme but still getting fc. Anyone else having same issue?
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Look up...
[Nexus One Android Development] gui.aguiar:
Sould I partionetad to instal a2sd version?
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Oh no, I've just installed .22 and restored everything except my Desktop, meaning I still have the default theme, and Settings|Sound FCs. I did 5 factory resets in Amon Ra and 5 Dalvik wipes before install.

I'll bet the phone doesn't ring. Can't live with this.

Hope jbbandos is working on this...

gui.aguiar I'm not clear on how the SD card should be partitioned. I have mine partitioned for Rodriguez, and that's supposed to be fine for A2SD or D2Ext.
