Does one must flash SS 5 by wiping data/storage then flash SS 6 coming from SS 4 or can we go straight to SS 6 still by wiping data?
[Vibrant Android Development] Jackdog89:
I was wondering the same thing, I'm on stock MIUI 1.9.16 though.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
I guess if you really dont want to you dont have to. as long as you format system ans cache along with the normal dalvik and cache partition wipe you should be fine :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Chwek13:
extended settings

Make sure system is mounted before flashing extended settings or you wlil get an error message

nick im on miui ss-6 from last week do i have to wipe
[Vibrant Android Development] fragmentttt:
is there going to be an LE version?
[Vibrant Android Development] KnowledgeBroker:
Just wipe, if you did a backup then it will only take a few minutes to restore everything.. I really don't see why anyone would take the lazy way if it means potential problems later AND doing it the right way.. ALWAYS wipe and avoid the issues. It is just the smart thing to do.

Oh, and nick.. just a note, the op says "SS-6 Mirror: Mirror: SS-5 "LG 2X Edition" (clickme)"

Since we aren't downloading ss-5 I imagine that is a typo?

I look forward to the new rom, thanks in advance for the hard work :)

Edit: Oh, and I didn't see BLN added.. what do we have to do to get that working? To the best of my knowledge the built in led notification thing doesn't work for our phones..
[Vibrant Android Development] mr_psycho:
Interesting. SS-6 came out this morning. Do you mean SS-5? Backup your data, then as Nick mentioned previously, format /system, cache partition, dalvik-cache, and flash the new Rom. If something doesn't work right, or you aren't comfortable with these steps, then by all means do the full wipe. Restore your apps as your final step.

In short, as Nick mentioned several posts back, eventually.
[Vibrant Android Development] jalenthejiv:
yeah sorry ss5 haha thanks bro

No, just back up your shiz and you'll be good to go. I came over from stock without any issues.
[Vibrant Android Development] KnowledgeBroker:
If the OP says it, I would listen since he created the rom.

Otherwise read the post 2 before yours, or half the posts the page before that the op answered that exact question to, or the page before..

My advice, don't be lazy, wipe, restore with built in backup, then you reduced chances of issues by a ton.

I hate when people ask questions that have been answered(RIGHT BEFORE) because it fuels future trolls of people with legit questions.

I have edited the build.prop to suit my needs. I was running r12 kernel and wanted to use the stock kernel by Atinm (by default with ROM) w/ a slight UV with no OC. I'm a power user so battery life I can't really give you a definite answer. The phone flies and so does the browser!

Browser is improved but still not perfect, and it should get slightly better battery than SS-5 since the kernel is updated. You shouldn't get lag Unless you add animations, and then they only lag for a few minutes, I run at 1 ghz, and im impatient so if it lags I would run it @1.3ghz, but never need to,

The MIUI.us rom (stock) http://forums.miui.us/forumdisplay.php?58-Samsung-Vibrant

MIUI 360 with overclock

And a miui360 with stock kernel

Both miui 360 roms have optimazations that match the kernels I put in.

I ask that you don't post bugs if you are using a different kernel than came with it.

If you must use a different kernel, use the stock miui.us rom.

I will update them throughout the week as need be and time will allow.

You mean for the new custom toggles? No not yet you can only see them in landscape. they work fine if you turn off custom toggles in settings, it will go back to the way it was in 1.5.20 (still a few buttons in that theme in Chinese but you should know what they are by the pics)

If you like the theme itself you can always just change the ''notification bar''

Can't wait for the update!

I just flashed this one, and seem to lock up every time I try and go to 1.6GHz. Anybody with better luck?

The reception is pretty bad too, with it constantly being on edge where it would be on 3G normally, with less bars in general.

Oh well. It's a really fast and smooth rom (save for the settings scrolling, what's up with that?)

I've tried a few different kernels but so far I like Bali 2.2.1 the best. I get good battery life along with led notifications I need.
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
NO use cpu spy and open cpu spy. it shows the states that are not being used. then with charger unplugged turn the screen off for 5 seconds, unlock your phone go back to cpu spy, hit menu, hit refresh. The deep sleep state should have gotten used, It may be a small percentage because you only had the screen off for a few seconds. that is the best way to see what states you are using. DEEP SLEEP will get used out of the box period unless you have changed something.

Since I didnt include Extended settings or any animations <-(I didnt make those) thats why its important to factoryreset or at the least format system.

SS6 is just amazing :)

installed it yest evening and phone is going into deep sleep properly, and it lost just 10-12% battery in 10 hours i slept which is excellent.

i guess i have found something that was keeping my phone awake, it was the launcher that comes with MIUI, even though i dont use it, it used to show in battery usage as continuously ON, so i have frozen it with TB and it has worked wonders. can anyone, who doesnt use stock launcher confirm this by freezing it with TB?

SS-6 is a phenomenal. Very impressed with how smooth the launcher transitions from page to page. Gps is working well, battery life has yet to be determined with the stock kernel, but it seems good so far. The phone is going into deep sleep as it should.

Nothing important but:

Has anyone noticed the lock sounds are very quiet now?

I had the first LE, and the lock sounds were nice and loud. I changed out the .ogg files for different ones to see if it was the files themselves, but no avail. The audible selection is not effected only screen lock sounds. If anyone has figured this out, or if I'm the only one experiencing this, let me know.

DSP Manager did make them slightly louder, but it also made audible selection crazy loud. :)

My GPS still can't get more than a 20 meter lock, with assisted GPS off as recommended.

My only problem, persistent with ss5 and 6 is I get a system force close after a reboot. That, and my system panel closes for no apparent reason. This time it shows battery as not decreasing for hours, even though it has. No force close, it just randomly stops monitoring. This is my primary and easy way of seeing battery life, stability, and what is using which resource. Since I started typing this, my battery has gone down 5%.. and I don't type that slowly.

Some sort of answer, what is with the system force closing on bootup and a few weird things besides battery drain.. ?
