[Defy Android Development] antony.ps:
lol

BTW, how is this version? I have around 100 apps to install, so i'm afraid of the lag on the launcher, i have tested the version from 2 weeks ago and was beatifull, but too much lag to everyday use. If this lag is solved, i will try MIUI again.
[Defy Android Development] hitanshu:
Folks like antony.ps/ephumuris,

Is CM7-quarx better than this, or is this MIUI? Which is more stable/faster?
[Defy Android Development] bioan:
I would go for CM7. I've used today MIUI 1.6.3 but it hasn't convinced me. It's eye candy, but not buttery smooth. Your choice.
[Defy Android Development] VTomi1975:
Hi again. Before give another chance to MIUI, I'd like to know about a few things which were problematic earlier (in both MIUI and CM7):

- Is video recording OK? I don't need HD, only fluent, smooth VGA recording without stuttering and frameskips.

- What about still images? (quality, zoom, camera UI)

- How do you rate the overall stability of this build?

Any answers are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance...

Tom
[Defy Android Development] drfakeacc:
Video is ok. Had no problems with it.

Zoom up to 4x (software zoom is useless, anway), camera UI is less annoying than the default Froyo one, picture quality is somewhat improved compared to the default froyo.

Well, for me it is really nstable. No fcs, no lags, everything works fine.
[Defy Android Development] crazyjosi:
Cam quality isn't good as on stock (green lense)
[Defy Android Development] VTomi1975:
As I experienced, image quality is greatly affected by the theme itself :)

Are you guys using the miui.us version or the chinese one? (I see there's no English language pack uploaded yet).
[Defy Android Development] bujcri:
radio???

Looking and working great. Also stable, so far and good overclocking capabilities. But I'm pretty much disappointed cos it doesn't have a working FM Radio app.

GPS no wokring for me

german retail defy from amazon.de

GPS is not working for me with 1.6.3/ 1.6.0/ 1.5.27/ 1.5.20

i tried some gps_fixes but not the one from this thread

btw the wifi/gms icons are white now, but the download animation is still green...
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Yeah download icon is in framework-res.apk but it would push the zip file size right up. I could do that I suppose and also the alarm icon doesn't match so could fix that too :-)

Ephumuris. Defy MIUI.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
I honestly wish gps just worked well in this release as well as cm7. I have gotten so used to this rom now but with my recent fitness regime I like to use mytracks to record my routes.

One thing I have noticed is this rom uses a gps lib whereas this is not apparently in cm7... I have tried with just about all cm7 files relating to gps but still max 4 satellite fixes. I'm thinking it may be a framework or services problem but my smali knowledge is verrrry limited.

Ephumuris. Defy MIUI.
[Defy Android Development] stunno:
I've been using this since last night and am very impressed so far. Using Skydroid I get a fix in less than a minute and no problems at all, however, using iGo it take about 2 minutes to get a fix, after 10 minutes iGo crashes, but I get an instant fix on restarting iGo. Unfortunately the phone resets after another 10 minutes

Apart from that it is excellent!

One request, if anyone can point me in the right direction, I use the top line battery indicator - a bit like Batti from WM6 days - and the line is bright green. Any ideas on how to change it to white - or any other colour for that matter?
[Defy Android Development] jjp84:
Im pretty well off when it comes to the devices, adb, roots, mods etc, but when it comes to GPS I am a complete noob... I am trying to use the navigate and it never picks up anything.. I am in the US, the configuration states the following:

NTP server

cn.pool.ntp.org

SUPL server

supl.google.com

SUPL server port

7276

Does that look right for US? Is there something I should try that I don't know?

Choose a zip that is closer to your location and flash it. ftp://cgserver.sytes.net/usgps/USGPS 1.2/

L.E: After flashing it in custom recovery, download GPS Status & Toolbox free edition, reset aGPS data and then download it. Wait for the first fix cause it will take a while. The next fix should be quick. Good luck !
[Defy Android Development] VTomi1975:
Will Defy's camera ever work correctly under 2.3? Pictures are overdarkened, blurred, video is choppy as usual. More or less the same under CM7 :S Seems like the only usable app for this is BlurCamera.apk under Froyo.

[Defy Android Development] arokan:
great rom!

but unfortunately it can't connect to WiFi with EAP and 2nd phase security method. I need it to connect to internet in my university.

you can try that: define an access point, then select 802.1x EAP as security, then select anything in "phase-2 authentication". Save it, press back, and then open the settings one more time. the setting for phase-2 authentication is reverted to none. :(
[Defy Android Development] jjp84:
Seems as though it worked a little better than previous flashes, so thank you much for helping. It is able to pinpoint my location and pull directions to a location... I'm guessing the aGPS part of it is the step by step instructions?? That doesn't seem like it's working if that what it is... Can you clarify the difference, if I should still get turn by turn directions then something is wrong still.. Again thank you for helping.
[Defy Android Development] lanfearxt:
i'm using CM7 RC0. can i flash this MIUI over RC0 without wiping?

Is there a fix for battlehearts dark characters?

BTW: I love this rom. I think I'm keeping it.
[Defy Android Development] Quza:
My Defy is randomly rebooting a lot and I don't know why...

I'm running 1.6.3 with the German language pack (lots of spelling mistakes btw :rolleyes:) and as far as I can tell, it's not rebooting due to too high overclocking...

It's doing fine at "Stability Test", the testing software for SetVsel. At the moment it's running at 1000/58 700/48 300/28 - that shouldn't be the problem.

Also when it's crashing, it's only doing a "Hot Boot" or "Fast Boot", so it should be a software problem, right?

Can't work it out, when I don't have a clue soon I'll go back to 2.2 :(
[Defy Android Development] jjp84:
Well, this sucks. I really love miui, but the fact that the GPS system only half works kind of kills it. it's not detrimental, but still the fact that the phone should be able to do these things and doesn't ruins the rom a little. Looking at miui's website, it doesn't seem like it's even in scope to fix and posting on those forums with that topic it's crickets. Looking like I might have to go back to CM7 =/
[Defy Android Development] Maringer:
In the other MIUI thread, somebody says that an app from the market, GPS Fix resolves the problem in MIUI. I assume that this is the app referenced:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.androidlab.gpsfix&feature=search_result

Perhaps worth a try?
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Think I got a fix for agps I will wait for new version later and have a test.

[Defy Android Development] darktyroll:
Good to see that..and maybe will disappear the lag from menu, options, games ..
[Defy Android Development] martin.flory:
1.6.10 is out in china! I can't wait!

I'm really happy with 1.6.3 (little low battery life, and the music player loses the file position after a while if I use the headset button). I think I'm sticking with MIUI, lets hope they keep improving it!
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Laggy menus should have been fixed in 1.6.3. They seemed to be for me. And never had lag in games they ran great.

Ephumuris.
[Defy Android Development] darktyroll:
Last time i tryed to play Asphalt6 with 1.6.3 and it was lagged :) When i play with settings from menu, all phone was lagged..i have this felling ":-<"

It`s weird because in all tests MIUI is better then CM7.

Respect!
[Defy Android Development] darule_2011:
Hey Euph...may I suggest that when you install the new 1.6.10 you do not wipe and see what happens? Then, wipe and see what happens.

I didn't wipe when I installed 1.6.3 over .27 and didn't have the theme issue and file explorer issue and although not officially stated, it appears there was a common trend that those who wiped had the issues while those that didn't wipe did not have the issue (notice I'm saying trend...not every single case). But I honestly don't know the repercussions of not wiping...perhaps I'm screwing something else up without knowing about it! Anyway, just a suggestion as you've become the go to person for posting the miui rom on xda and perhaps the current installation instruction of wiping might have a need to change to no wipe.:confused:

UPDATE: Just installed 1.6.10 from MIUI.US link - http://goo.gl/MgP9J

FYI - I did not wipe, just installed over 1.6.3

-agps/gps working same as it did when I installed 1.6.3, used gps test from market and as last rom have 11 sats, 6-7 used, 15 feet accuracy.

-Themes worked for me on last without a fix, and still do but I'll say now it seems a little quicker to access online themes/download than before.

-Still cannot access all my contacts in sms, I should probably wipe and see if that works but with every else working great I hate to mess with things for one little minor flaw.

-Market works fine, file explorer works fine (as did before for me), still using camera360 for full screen and taking good pics at about 1.2 mbs.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Wiping is hardly necessary but i always do it as a precaution, there was a work around to do with the English language pack where you apply a theme before the lang pack and the theme chooser didn't force close.

You not wiping somehow bypassed this as data for the theme app was already stored as used. :)

I'm dying for them to sort out 1.6.10 and upload it so i can have a go at fixing agps...if it's not soon then i'm at work until 4 tomorrow and then got other stuff to do too!
[Defy Android Development] darule_2011:
So that's how mine worked! The english 1.6.10 is up...while you're working on the agps...can you work on my sms contact problem? just kidding:D
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
What's up with sms contacts?

I don't see the 1.6.10 where is it?
[Defy Android Development] darule_2011:
The download link is in my post above...but if you want to go directly to MIUI.US it's uploaded in the ROM DOWNLOAD section.

When I'm in sms, and click the add button, under the 'contacts' tab I cannot access all my contacts (shows 17 out of 31 contacts). I just did a wipe cache and it didn't work. Fortunately everything else still works. I was going to wipe davlik but was wondering what data is stored in davlik before I go and wipe it?
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Dalvik only stores app info i think and whatever is needed is rebuilt upon first boot after a wipe. That's why wiping dalvik boot time takes a couple of minutes. It's definitely worth trying.
[Defy Android Development] bioan:
Here you go ephumuris.
[Defy Android Development] bioan:
Theme chooser still FC's. Damn.
[Defy Android Development] darktyroll:
Same here, they say that will not be anymore, but still FC.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Hmm rom seems very smooth even after restoring my 98 apps. Theme chooser does still force close....bah!

For anyone brave enough to try... aGPS fix for 1.6.10 by me.

http://www.multiupload.com/2YKTJUC5EC

I tested and indoors at night i got around 6 fixes within 10 seconds. Turned gps off and still got my rough location for weather too. You may still need to apply a gps.conf for your region for perfect gps.

Let me know how it goes...

Big thanks to eybee1970 for pointing me to the fix by kabaldan :) I just did the smali editing.
[Defy Android Development] darule_2011:
that's weird, wonder why some are having force close issue while others aren't. Similar with my sms contact thing (I have problem but others don't). Some times I wonder if the motorola devs put gremlins in different batches of phone hardware and are sitting back tossing a few down as they laugh at the rest of us:)
[Defy Android Development] darktyroll:
Also with phonebook got FC..damn :(

EDIT: i change the rom from www.miuiandroid.com not www.miui.us, the theme choser and phonebook working fine right now, no FC.
[Defy Android Development] rbeier1221:
I might just have to flash this and test it out. I went back to CM7 because of the gps issue and because to be honest I couldn't stand how third party notifications got hidden...small thing I know, but it just annoyed me. haha
[Defy Android Development] jjp84:
Finally, something that works!!! Thanks so much
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Just done the fix on the miuiandroid.com version too for agps. This US version has errors plus still has some chinese text for me, i recommend switching to my other thread for miuiandroid.com version.

[Defy Android Development] juanyunis:
Amazing, i got everything working, my only issues with custom roms were agps, and slow data... i extracted my baseband from my stock rom, and replace the MIUI default. Instant GPS, instant DATA, intant everything!.

Also, i made a benchmark with Quadrant:

Config: 1200Mhz@55 vsel. My score: 2280 :O!
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
I don't understand... did replacing baseband make gps instant or did you use the fix I posted?

Ephumuris.
[Defy Android Development] juanyunis:
Only replacing my baseband... i have always problem with my gps, and custom roms... i used to use basebandswitcher... with China ME... the only baseband which works with me, but now i found the way to use my stock baseband... and it's better for me. I just flash a custom rom, replace the baseband, and i get data, void, and gps working perfect.

Has anyone been able to use the wvga recording fix from CM7 to incorporate into the miui rom? I use camera360 for photo to get wvga, but would love to be able to get wvga recording as well.
[Defy Android Development] hitanshu:
Ephumuris.

DQ - Since you replace the 2nd init on CM7 with a new version - how easy is it to go back and reinstall CM7 if I get bored with MIUI? I'm curious because it looks REALLY nice but I don't want to be flashing a SBF if I can avoid it.

What are the possible caveats. You made any FAQ for this? Any possible issues during installation?
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
What i do is always keep an old basic nandroid of MIUI and CM7. If i'm on MIUI i restore cm7 nandroid then wipe data and instl newer version. And vice versa. I restore nandroid of old MIUI and then wipe data and install newer version.

It avoids having to flash an sbf when going back to cm7 :)
