I'm gettin a bunch of FCs with the Contacts app :'( I can't see any profile ... it's quite a big problem! I don't understand which could it be the cause of this ... maybe friendcaster ... don't know! I made a MIUI backup of everything except contacts ... so ... ! I also make a full wipe and a fresh installation of the last XPART version!

any ideas!?
[Nexus One Android Development] tnicko:
In the nightly thread, someone was experiencing the same thing who happen to be using the leaked G+ app. Are you by chance using that?
[Nexus One Android Development] timmoty_g:
Hi JB,

I have some stability issue.

I did a full wipe and looks like the XPART crashed when attempting recovery of application using MIUI Backup.

I'm now doing recovery bit by bit to know which app caused it, or is it the read/write load that caused it.

I'll report back.

Thanks and regards,

Timmoty

Hi, JB

Can i flash rom via Clockwork 5.2.0.6 j_r0dd mod or 4EXT v2.2.6 RC5 ?
[Nexus One Android Development] eidros:
Downloading Xpart 1.10.7

BIG thank you.
[Nexus One Android Development] wangweily:
well I'm flashing the new rom

thank a lot
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Please do, that is a strange one, but MIUI backup has its strange situations.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Probably yes, older CWM had problems with the sd-ext partition but that seems fixed now. If you try these recoveries, please post here how it went.
[Nexus One Android Development] net.cat:
damn yes ... is it this the problem!??!?!?!?!? a simple uninstall is it enough?
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
Just updated abs all is good!

Is there any way you could include this in your ROM:

Would be really great!

[Nexus One Android Development] timmoty_g:
Hi JB,

After full wipe, I found that using MIUI backup is still usefull provided that I don't restore those applications that will create a sync setup, such as WhatsApp, Google+, Docs, Facebook and etc.

By the way, I noticed that you have removed "check_data_app" from the package. Is it on purpose?

That's all from me for now.

Thanks and regards,

Timmoty

miui just added a toggle switch 2 updates ago

edit... i see there is more to that than just the switch, that would be a nice to have those settings!!
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
Yeah me like automation ;)

Sent from my Nexus One
[Nexus One Android Development] tnicko:
Yup, that's all they did. Uninstall the leaked G+, and reinstalled the one available on the market.
[Nexus One Android Development] net.cat:
done after a fresh new re-installation :) now everything is awesome ... as always :D

question: do u prefer the stock launcher or GO Launcher EX ... and why? only a little poll for curiosity :)
[Nexus One Android Development] tnicko:
Usually I like to stick with stock when using MIUI. Problem is, after a while I get tired of the lag when opening the folder I create which contains all my apps. I throw all my apps in a folder and keep it in the center of the tray. When scrolling thru these, it'll stick a bit. It was less when using the xpart version.

So I'll grab ADW Launcher Ex that I paid for a long time ago. In my opinion the best launcher. To each their own of course ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] ocujos:
Some people say: if it's not broken, don't fix it! I of course did not listen to that and upgraded to 1.10.7 last night. I had a major issues: I was unable to use LBE Privacy guard and Titanium backup Pro so I switched back to 1.9.16. Nandroid backup I created just before the upgrade could not be restored, so I used one 11 days old. I lost some SMS's in the process...damn!

I suspect the issue is with the superuser app but don't know what exactly. Root permission is enabled in settings.
[Nexus One Android Development] quangtien_bk:
I make a full wipe then upgrade from A2SD to XPART version and It get stuck at boot screen, I have tried with V1.9.16 and 1.10.7, also tried to reformat my SDCard. I am using one Fat32 Partition and one EXT4
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
So it seems you identified one of the bugs in MIUI Backup... :)

As for "check_data_app", it is inserted by the kitchen if I turn on support for flashing apps in /data/app, but since that is broken in the last MIUI versions I've not enabled it this time - and I've not included Titanium, A2SDGUI and Terminal Emulator in the ROM.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Strange... I am having problems with LBE Privacy too (I see the message it is granted superuser but when I open the app it complains it can't start the service), but Titanium is working Pro is working well.

As for the SMSs, I'm sorry... Have you tried SMS Backup from the market? It will backup your SMSs and call history to your gmail account, and will allow restoring everything. It is one of the things I use a lot.

PS: I'm on Xpart now, got a Sandisk class 4 card and it works perfectly! So anyone having problems with Xpart, my advice is to replace your sd card with a Sandisk... :)
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Try downloading again and check the MD5 sum. Also, which recovery are you using? I've just seen a report that the last CWM still corrupts ext-sd.
[Nexus One Android Development] quangtien_bk:
That right, first time I use last CWM to flash and it make ext-sd corrupted, then I used RA Recovery. I still can flash A2SD Rom only.

It is really strange because of last time I have already success to flash XPART 1.9.16 and 1.10.7 by RA Recovery. Yesterday evening, when I trying to flash one mode.zip with last CWM, but I miss by flash back to A2SD 1.9.16 :o, then I tried to re-flash to XPART version but can not... :(
[Nexus One Android Development] timmoty_g:
Hi JB,

All the problems gone after I put back the "check_data_app" and replace the following component (in their respective folders):

superuser.apk (system/app)

vending.apk (system/app)

busybox (system/xbin)

sqlite3 (system/xbin)

Regards,

Timmoty
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Strange, check_data_app shouldn't have any impact, it is used only at flashing time to install apps into the data partition. And for the others, only if the MIUI devs have broken superuser, busybox and sqlite3 (vending can't be deodexed and I always use the latest one).

Strangest even that I am not getting any problems at all. Running Xpart and everything smooth.

I'll need to check exactly what you did to have FCs and see if I can reproduce it here.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Do a full wipe a few (some recommend 5) times before flashing Xpart, and use only Amon Ra's. I still need to check how it goes with 4ext, maybe that is also a worthwhile alternative.
[Nexus One Android Development] timmoty_g:
Hi JB,

I noticed the errors and FCs always had something to do with Dalvik Cache and SQlite complaining, either I/O error or no space.

But now, no FCs so far...

Regards,

Timmoty
[Nexus One Android Development] Franc38:
Just to report that I flashed 1.10.7 when it was released and I'm yet to experience any single FC or problem.

As far as I'm concerned it works as smoothly as 1.9.16 did

(All of these are the XPart versions, and I only did a single wipe cache/wipe dalvik before flashing the new ROM... And of course, I flashed the latest WM kernel)
[Nexus One Android Development] timmoty_g:
JB,

I did a full wipe the way.
[Nexus One Android Development] eidros:
Hi,

I would also like to feedback that I updated to 1.10.7 Xpart rom by wiping the caches only. I initially experienced lots of FC's but after removing Google+ 2.0 and Google Music 4.01, leaked from the upcoming ICS Android 4.0 which I installed with the 1.9.16 Xpart rom, I had no more FC's :)

I was seeing lots of 'android.process.acore...' FCs every time I use the contacts and google search/voice search. After removing the two ICS 4.0 apps, everything is great and smooth again :) I know Google will fix the bugs when they finally launched ICS 4.0. I read that it will be launched in Hong Kong on the 19 Oct together with Samsung Nexus Prime super-phone :)

Is there a new WM kernel with CM7.1?
[Nexus One Android Development] olm3ca:
This ROM is working perfectly now for me with Apps2SD so thanks a lot to everyone involved. This is more of a general MIUI question I know but perhaps someone knows the answer here. The File Explorer app in MIUI keeps track of all your SD card content like music, videos, etc. Does anyone know how to refresh that? For example, if I copy over a video manually, it does not show up in the "Videos" section. I know I can browse for it manually but I'm just curious what triggers MIUI to scan / organize your content. Hitting refresh from within the file explorer app does nothing. Thanks!
[Nexus One Android Development] MaDInDy:
Hi , JB :D

Now, I use BlackRose S-OFF HBOOT.

Can you recommend to resize MTD partitions table for QND MIUI XPART ?

Thanks.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
I've been a fan of this rom for a long time, but been using stock GB for some time. Now I'm itching to use this rom again, but I don't know I seem to find people having problems with it. How come?

JB: I've used your rom when it was based on XJ's, anything substantial since?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Still thinking about what would be best... For XPART, since we barely use the internal data partition, and there is also a script mount /data/local/download in /cache if the cache partition is too small, maybe the best is to reduce cache to 5MB and increase system accordingly. Hopefully it won't give problems downloading angry birds from the market... :)
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Hi!

It still is based on XJ, just XPART changed and now is based on Rod's script. I've also added a bunch of tuning options, and lately had to remove Titanium, A2SDGUI and Terminal from the included apps.

As for the problems, there don't seem to be so much. Some were due to the pre-release google+ some people installed, it seems. But feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
[Nexus One Android Development] MaDInDy:
I think I'll try 145/5/286 or 150/30/256 when next QND version is updated and report later.

Thanks.
[Nexus One Android Development] ocujos:
Jose,

Have you found out what's causing LBE Privacy service to fail?

I would love to upgrade to the latest version, but without LBE Privacy guard I "feel naked".

I also use Sandisk class 4 (32Gb) card with Xpart with 0 issues :)

For the "in-phone" benchmark results for various uSD cards visit this page. Sandisk Class 2 cards beat class 6 cards! Also, why is Sandisk class 4 still the best card for our Nexus One.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Still no luck with LBE, probably will have to contact the developer. Hopefully I'll have some time tomorrow.

Seems like my XPART problem really was the class 10 Patriot (and before that the class 4 Kingston). The 32GB Class 4 Sandisk is working perfectly, and seems faster than the class 10.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
just gonna quote bump myself here because this seems to have been overlooked.

any chance to add this jb?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Just looked quickly at it, seems similar to what juice defender does already (even the free version), if I have time this weekend I'll investigate more, to see how easy it is to add.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
the nice thing is it adds in with tasker which i use a lot!

And juice defender can't switch between 2g and 3g in the free version.it can switch mobile data off completely but not switch between the two. Ultimate can do this but if my Tasker can do it I would prefer that ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
I tried QND once before, but had install problems. I'd like to try the Xpart version now, and have a good Sandisk card.

The first post here does not give an idea of what partition sizes should be. I have a 16GB card. What part sizes? I guess a fat, an ext4, and maybe something else?

Any fixes to apply after install, or special commands to run?

---------- Post added at 08:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 AM ----------

Bah, I have to move forward, so I have to guess.

In gparted starting at 1MB, a Fat32 of 13.99GB, and then an ext4 of 1GB.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
i have ext4 of 512mb and have roughly 180 apps installed and still havent filled it up...so 1gb will be enough ;)

otherwise the setup most people use (including me) is just simple 1 partition ext4 and the rest as fat32. there are a few other setups that are supposed to increase speed but the basic setup works very well for most people.

after install there are no commands to run. dont mess around with a2sd gui or the unbuilt "move to sd card"

EVERYTHING is AUTOMATICALLY moved to the ext partition. you are good to go from the getgo.
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Thank you, good to know. I made the fat32 the first part, and ext4 the second. Only using about 4GB of the 14GB fat part.

According to a link in the second post, it is important to align fat on a 128KB boundary, for best write speed, so 1MB should do fine.

There are lots of fixes/patches in the second post here, but it's not clear whether those have been already applied, or whether we should apply them. Particularly WildMonk's kernel?

BTW pseudoheld, you really have a handle on American grammar and colloquialisms. I wish my German were 1/10th as good.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
the fixes mentioned in the second post have been applied already!

wildmonks kernel doesn't come pre installed though. you will have to get that one yourself. the latest WM kernel is the bomb. i would advise to use it with smartass v2 governor. great speeds and good battery life!
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Help! There's no MIUI Backup/Restore in this ROM.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
there should be.

if you are using the stock miui launcher you gotta go into one of the folders on the homescreen. (cant remember what its called...maybe "tools" or sth like that)

in it you will find the backup/restore. so basically there is just no direct link on the homescreen its stored inside the folder.

at least thats what i remember it was like for me ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Thank goodness. I'm used to using it in the Settings menu.

Oddly Titanium refused to install most of my apps, whereas MIUI Backup did them all. Both were up to date.

Now I have a notification saying "Low on space. Phone storage space is getting low." Settings|System|SD says free space on SD is 9.81GB, but then for some reason it has A2SD with zero. Nothing else.
[Nexus One Android Development] Franc38:
You're using A2SD ?

Well, most of the time when you flash it, A2SD doesn't work directly (a bug with the latest dt beta script... if I'm not mistaken). Solution is: go to the terminal emulator, then go super user. Type "a2sd check"... You'll see plenty of info, and it will most certainly confirm that apps do install in phone not SD... (you can bypass this step ;))

So type "a2sd repair"... You'll see a bunch of stuff on the screen and the phone will then reboot.

For optimal space, go to the terminal emulator, "su", "a2sd cachesd" and that reboots again and moves the dalvik to SD...
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Actually, I downloaded and installed the Xpart version. The filename is QND-MIUI-MULTI-XPART-1.10.7.zip . I do not know why it says a2sd in the SD memory.

But I'm pretty sure the phone's internal memory is close to full, for some reason.

Help with Xpart

Hi guys,

I'm trying to install this Rom with Xpart, but I'm kind of confuse with the Xpart procedure. I'm assuming that I would need to do a couple partition to the Sd card with Gpart correct? Do you guys have a link with simple instruction on this. I tried to read docmjldds post on Rod's thread, but it's pretty confusing.
[Nexus One Android Development] MaDInDy:
How To Partition Layout

load Parted Magic here and burn it with imgburn here

boot with this CD inside you CD-Rom Drive

Connect your SD (in your Phone with the sd mount option in Amon RA) or with a Card Reader with your PC

Format your Compled SD in Fat32

and start create Partitions:

example:

Partition No.1 = xx GB Fat32 (xx = whatever you want)

Partition No.2 = 1 GB EXT4 (Less than 2 GB)

or

Partition No.1 = xx GB Fat32 (xx = whatever you want)

Partition No.2 = 1 GB EXT4 (Less than 2 GB)

Partition No.3 = 300 MB EXT4 (1/3 Size of Partition No.2)

after that Reboot in your Normal PC System, put the Rom on SD and Flash it like any other Rom.

P.S. You can choose Align to MiB for Align your partition.

Great xpart rom, same stability as I had a long time ago. However, after applying the RTL script, http://forums.miuiandroid.com/showthread.php?723-Arabic-RTL-Fix-Now-with-T9-dialer-and-BROWSER!!!!, I get FC in Sound Settings. How come?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Sorry for not answering your posts before, but these days I've been having a very busy schedule.

For the free memory, check in Titanium for the real values. A2SD will show as 0 in system as all the space it expects to have for A2SD is being used differently.

The out of memory message is very strange, shouldn't happen in XPART - unless you repartitioned with blackrose and reduced the system partition.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Not the first time someone had problems with that script, unfortunately. You need to check with the author of the script - and he'll probably ask you to try with "plain" miui to see if it FCs also.
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Well, I thought I was going to be OK with QND this time, but I get FC on sound settings just like months ago. The only changes I've made are WM's kernel and Galaxy wallpaper. (I also did do a restore with MIUI backup)

So my phone's not ringing. I can't live with this.

I guess back to .us.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
That is really strange, as sound settings seem to work for everyone else.

Where does it FC exactly, immediately when you enter the sound settings?

I assume this doesn't happen in .us, so I ask if you have tried QND A2SD or XPART? .us has only A2SD, and XPART might give strange problems with some SD cards.
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Last time (months ago) I tried A2SD. Now Xpart. Does not happen in .us .

Last time you said it has something to do with the theme. This time the only theme change I made was to Galaxy wallpaper for main and lock screen.

The second I hit Sound Settings it FCs.
[Nexus One Android Development] pseudoheld:
**** it seems my reboots are back :( wtf? i had my phone sent in and repaired and today i had a reboot when i missed a call.

didn't manage to grab a log though :(
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
I find that all sound is dead. No notifications, rings, nothing. And Settings|Sound FCs.

I set the theme to HTC Sense, and rebooted, then I had the 'cuckoo, cuckoo' on reboot lockscreen. Changed to the Chinese character theme, and again lost all sound. Changed back to Sense and STILL no sound.

Must go back to .us .
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Back on .us now, and it works.
[Nexus One Android Development] tnicko:
Just slapped on the a2sd version and no issues thus far...
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
I'm sorry, but not being able to reproduce the problem I have to guess mostly. I see you went back to .us, but if you try QND again can you do a logcat from a terminal when it FCs and post it somewhere so I can look at it? Might give me some hints on why you're having so much problems with my ROM and none with .us
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
:(

Try to see in the superuser app if the log shows any access denied.
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Seems like a reboot is more fundamental than an access denied. More like a kernel failure or segfault.

Are all peripherals in your phone working? Does anything not? Exactly when in a phone call does it reboot?

Have you tried different kernels? Anything in logcat?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
One of the typical problems with MIUI is a reboot when you have some apps access to phone or SMS set to ask instead of allow. I've seen it with incoming SMS, outgoing phone calls, etc. It all depends on the apps you have installed.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
I applied the RTL fix again, and after 1st boot I didn't get FC in SOund Settings, but did in the 2nd reboot. How come?
[Nexus One Android Development] quangtien_bk:
Finally I can use XPART now without any issues. After many times of full wipe, re-format SDCard, flash... (not under 20 times) but not success :o, it is still stuck at boot screen animation, then I use only 01 partition of fat32 to flash XPART version and everything seem to good, after that I re-partition sdcard in recovery of Amon Ra to make ext4 and now I am using XPART to feedback to you :)

I am using sandisk class2 16G.

Thanks for your work hard to make a great rom.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Ouch... Can you put a logcat on pastebin or upload it? Maybe that will help also finding why Quantumstate is having FCs in Sound Settings.

I now wondering if it is due to bad translations or something like that.
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Thank you! I'm glad it finally worked for you, too bad it took so many tries. BTW, what maker/size/speed is your sdcard?
[Nexus One Android Development] jbbandos:
Guys, the new release will be up only on Monday. I still don't have ADSL at home, and the 4-way reboot will also be released on Sunday at best. Seems like there is now a wake on vol-up in MIUI that breaks the change track mod, so I won't be using it for now.
[Nexus One Android Development] quangtien_bk:
My sdcard is Sandisk Class2 16Gb
[Nexus One Android Development] ocujos:
I've found an annoying camera bug: when Auto-focus is enabled and flash is set to Auto, first photo taken is always without a flash! This means that I may miss a moment in life I can never get back because flash didn't go off.

To confirm this is indeed a MIUI Camera bug, I then took a series of photos under same lighting conditions (dark room) with LgCamera: 10 out 10 photos were taken with flash as expected (flash was set to auto, just like with MIUI camera).

Has anyone else encountered this bug? Has it been fixed in 1.10.7 or 1.10.14?
[Nexus One Android Development] eidros:
+1 here. I am running Xpart 1.10.7 and have been very happy with the overall performance of the rom. Just had a similar problem last night during an important recognition dinner. I missed a couple of important shots because of the MIUI Camera would not snap :(

Would you recommend the LgCamera as a day to day camera replacement on the N1? Have you tried Camera Zoom FX?
[Nexus One Android Development] ocujos:
Yes. It's a great camera with more features than MIUI cam. However, I'd still prefer MIUI camera because of its tight integration with the rest of the MIUI ROM.
[Nexus One Android Development] timmoty_g:
I've just tested few times the camera with auto focus and auto flash, all worked fine.
[Nexus One Android Development] ocujos:
Thanks for your time Timmoty. Just before the test, kill the camera app process (if running) and try again. I reckon that the flash won't work on the first shot. It will work on subsequent shots. I can consistently reproduce this bug on my N1.

Jose,

I know you're busy with the new ROM, but when you get a chance, please test the camera on your N1. Thanks.
[Nexus One Android Development] Quantumstate:
Wow, 1.10.14 is so much better than earlier versions. Even GPS is working now, which hasn't for six months!

Finally happy with this phone.

(Except the power button is beginning to act up... had this fixed at the end of my warranty, but now three months later it's back)

Just tried the camera with auto-focus, and no flash. So why not leave autofocus off for now?
