I first installed MIUI.us for the first time a few days ago. The current version at the time was 1.7.1. On the first install and full charge it went for close to 28 hours and still had 10% left on battery.

1.7.8 came out the next day and I installed it straight away. Full charge lasted 14 hours and 17 minutes until it hit 3% battery.

Similar usage on both occasions. During office hours my phone pretty much sat there with occasional email checking and instant messaging. In the evenings it experienced heavier 3g and phone traffic.

Any explanation or ideas as to why guys?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MrFrankfromCM:
You should have also wiped the cache and also Dalvik before flashing newer version.

you could also wipe the battery stats under Advanced in Recovery.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
It only seemed to be at my house. I would lose all signal, not just data. And I would receive text messages up to 10 minutes after they were sent, when it did show a connection. When I reflashed 1.7.1 the problem was rectified. I'm going to reflash 1.7.8 with a full wipe and see if that changes anything.

I flashed 1.7.8 from 1.7.1 with no wipe and have not had any issues whatsoever with my network
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MrFrankfromCM:
I flashed from 6.8 to 7.1 with no wiping....no problems.

Flashed from 7.1 to 7.8 only wiping cache and dalvik...no problems.

I'm using Radio .30.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
Yeah, definitely bizarre. I wiped data and reflashed, I did do MIUI backup and restore. the reception is fixed, though it is bouncing between 2 and 4 bars pretty frequently. But at least now the connection is stable. It's only going to Edge though, and not 3g/H like it would on the previous version...

I can't get my ext4 partition to show up. Says A2SD+ not available. Anyone know how to fix this?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Delta105RUS:
Idk if this is usefull but I flashed 1.7.15 over 1.7.8 WITH WIPE and my market app kept closing, not fc but just closing. I restored 1.7.8 and flashed 1.7.15 WITHOUT WIPE and that fixed it. Hope this helps someone.

Video Review of 1.7.15

Hey everyone,

Sorry I didn't get a video review of last weeks build done, the new job is keeping me busy! Watch the latest video here and spread the word to everyone to check it out!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] boon_dock_saint@msn.com:
I have Installed 1.7.15 and used 1.7.8. Im having issues with the network connecting on 3G and GPS seems a lot slower to lock on. I had previous versions of MIUI and didn't have those problems. I have tried a bunch of browsers and the only browser that will work on 3G is Firefox. Market Place will work. I did a full wipe, reinstalled the rom and no change. Any ideas?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] antinerd:
Is the FM radio working in this build for the Desire Z and G2? Looks like it is from the video, but that does not look like a G2....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] alexgarrett:
Mine is working

Music app is buggy, headphones in sound on for messages and the music comes out of the speakers for a sexond, asking the autolight can't decide its mind, maybe one of the devs could do so that it only changes every 5 seconds, asking FN + Z = no pound sign :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hitman818:
Will this get updated to 1.7.22?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] alexgarrett:
It already has been. Go to miui.us and look at the downloads page
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noodles2224:
someone running the latest, well yesterdays update please comfirm if Netflix works too? since netflix updated their device support, i think it no longer only works on G2 2.2 but any G2 now..

im recaliberating my battery so i dont wanna be flashing back and forth right now.. thank you.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Wheres the option to change "My Phone Number" located in this ROM? Under CM7 its under additional settings in call settings but I don't see this here.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noodles2224:
Shouldnt have to change your number, all miui dont have phone number issues as CM do
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Interesting mine shows as unkown.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ctraywick1:
Mine too

* Thank you. That is all......
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noodles2224:
Well that, is true but i mean.. you dont have an sms issue with that being unknown like CM does :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
I haven't had any issues with this update yet. It's getting smoother and smoother that's for sure!

My phone number shows up just fine, and always has since I started using MIUI. it could be a sim card issue, do a nandroid backup, load up another rom and see if it shows up there.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Well Im coming from a stock rom., which obviously showed the number It didn't show up when I was on CM7 but they had the option to enter it manually and it would stick. I could have sworn I used a MIUI rom before that had the option to manually enter it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dk2000zx:
Hi, Is there a way i can use ENTER key when texting to send SMS instead of hitting the Send Button on screen each time?? thanks

PS: Used "Search This Thread" but came up with nothing.

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wilnotdie:
Just something not there yet. Same thing in sense (evo slide) why? Idk its pretty lame imo. Only thing I can recomend is modify it somehow or use Handcent-- which has the option.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dk2000zx:
Mmmhh sadd... i really love the miui sms app ui and go sms or handcent cant replace this lol.. oh well, i guest ill have to live with the onscreen send button lolll
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dk2000zx:
Another bug is: somehow the phone would hot reboot from nowhere. For example, i was listenning to fm radio last night and the phone somehow hot rebooted by itself! But what's strange is that fm was still playing!

4g speed

Ok so I decided to give it a try yesterday just because i saw that it was officially supported.

I gotta admit that the user experience is quite impressive.

I don't like the fact that there is no drawer on the default launcher so i might have to use launcher pro or go launcher.

One last thing. can we get the tmobile 4g speed on this rom?

I keep doing some researches about it but can't find any answer.

The only thing i found more than once is that since china does not have 4G they only support 3G.

Is that the case? If true, then i might go back to CM7.

I did a couple speed test and i was getting ****ty speed.

thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
I like the stock launcher in MIUI a lot, even if it is kind of similar to the iPhone. As for data speed, look at my sig :) This was with radio 10.04.03 with matching RIL.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] antinerd:
Does anyone know how to change the boot animation in this rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ctraywick1:
Mine too but it did it during a phone call.. the call kept going on those. I just happened to look at it and saw my boot animation

* Thank you. That is all......
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Whippler:
backup your miui theme, load the backup to pc, extract it, and there should be folder for boot animation and sound... replace them whit your own, zip it back and change the extension, load it back to phone, and then use the theme manager to apply your backup whit new boot...

guess its easier make "boots" folder and put you boot animation and boot sound in there they should be named "bootanimation.zip" and "bootaudio.mp3" sounds format doen't matter much as far as i know and then put the boots folder into zip, and change the extiension to .mtz transfer to phone, go to theme manager, pres menu and import theme, and then apply it, should change the bootani.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dk2000zx:
Battery seems to be less performing too.. anyone know how to fix this??? (Using streamline kernal, only gmail sync is on, data is always on but im always on wifi)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] adrien1977:
hmmm.

I have not checked the latest radio.

I still have 26.08.04.30_M3

I'll try this as soon as i get home.

As far as the launcher, i actually really like now the Go EX Launcher and all of the GO products.

I just can't live without the drawer.

thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] alexgarrett:
For the launcher, I just put all but three of my most commonly used apps in a folder and told it to sort alphabetically. Then I put the folder, which I named "launcher", and my three apps I kept out in the dock. I really don't miss the other launchers so this works fine for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] antinerd:
Thanks for the info on changing the boot animation.

Now, if I can figure out how to change the digital clock widget (Clock 2x4) from 24 hour to 12 hour (with am and PM) I'll be all set. I tried Settings > System > Date & Time Settings , but this only changed the time format in the notification bar, at the top right corner of the screen. I'm starting to think that there might not be a way to toggle 12h/24h on the digital click widget....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Are.Two:
For those of you who want a good app drawer for MIUI you really need to check out Alt Drawer here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1154299

It's awesome for MIUI and the dev of the app keeps making it better. It's a lot easier than using a folder for an app drawer and is pretty customizable as well.

Does the led notification color change work for ayone? When I changed the color, and received a notification it was still orange. Does it only work for specific devices?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] guyute74:
After years of cyan on the g1 abnd now g2 i've made a switch and loving it. One question so far... in my contacts on cyan I had home and mobile and custom where I put husband/wife name... on miui all those customs are mobile? Any work arounds or toggles to toggle?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
Orange notification light? Mine is green! But the custom light does not seem to work, but it hasn't bothered me, I'm just glad the trackpad pulse works!

guyute74, I don't quite understand your question... but I'm sure I can help once I do!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
To the left of the phone number, you can click the drop down menu and select what type of number it is. "Mobile" "Office" "Landline" and "Fax". Up at the very top you put the whole name, where I have "Home". And you can also add a nickname, such as "Wife" or "Husband".
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] guyute74:
Thanks.... What I was looking for is an option on cyan... And maybe stock... That gives you options for home, mobile, fax, other and custom. Under custom I add wife or husband. All this is under one contact. So far... I love everything about this rom. Without a fix, I can't be certain I'm not sending inappropriate text messages to the wrong spouse. Plan b. I'll just make individual contacts.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] guyute74:
Actually, just checked, this is a feature in google contacts. Miui must change the 'customs' to mobile?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shrome99:
Hey, this rom is amazing. You've made one for the incredible s as well. Can you please make an OFFICIAL MIUI ROM for the Desire S (SAGA)??

Old Gallery

Anyone knows why did they remove all the nice features from the Gallery app?

There was alot of customization, like transition effects, reflections etc...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wilnotdie:
MIUI hasn't incorporated that feature yet. I'm hoping they do, I have a ton of custom labels. The closest work around is to use Go Contacts/Dialer.

I haven't found a way to port stock/cyan dialer to MIUI, but maybe someone else has?

Also, I haven't found a way to create new contacts and give them custom labels....but maybe Go Contacts can do that, perhaps I just missed it.

Why cant MIUI just leave some things alone! lol jk
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] guyute74:
In addition, the address fields are all jacked up. Small price to pay for an otherwise sweet rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] alexgarrett:
1.7.29 is up on miui.us, and the changelog is on the homepage. Get your asses over there and snag it if you haven't done so already
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] carlospr21:
I read that a hole lots of people r getting launcher FC so ill wait .22 working great for me
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] alexgarrett:
I've been running it since it dropped this morning and have had zero fc's... It is a more stable build for me than 1.7.22 was, in fact. Where are you getting your information about all these fc's? There is nothing in this thread or in the desire z/g2 thread over on miui.us about users having problems. I haven't had a single problem yet, and it actually fixed a lot of issues that popped up in the last build.

Contact Telephone Number

I find this rom is fantastic. Superfast. My only problem is that the Contacts telephone numbers appear in US format. Is there a way of displaying it as in Europe? That is the numbers appear as a whole not split with a - (US: 2-367-456, european would appear as 2367456)

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Spastic909:
Instead of doing all that you can change boot animation and sounds from settings..not to mention you can download tons of animations and sounds directly from theme manager.

Why did news and weather get taken out of this? Going back to .22 till it comes back
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
Yeah, while editing the fields are out of order, but at least the "ghost text" is correct, and when just viewing the contact, the address appears proper.

And also, I have not had any force closes and I downloaded and updated as soon as it dropped.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TrueYears:
Hey What kernels are you guys using with this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noodles2224:
Omg, just push the news and weather app from 22 to /system/app on this one..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fidyyuan:
Is it worth it to make the jump from MIUI 1.4.22 to the latest one? Android 2.3.3 is super stable with 0 gps issues. Have there been any huge changes between 2.3.3 and this current 2.3.4 version? I had been getting a lot of GPS turn-by-turn issues when I ran the 2.3.4 version a month ago (I rely on GPS for my job so it's crucial). Thanks so much!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
I use Umaro's latest kernel with no issues and battery life is really good! Still have about 35% left with screen brightness on auto, gps nav for half an hour, and the screen being on for just short of two hours.

I also get a lock on GPS fairly quickly with my set up, you can see my phone set up in my sig.

Omg you are the all knowing android god...it was a simple question as to why it was taken off smart guy
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arich:
But you also said you were going back to .22 until it came back so he was saying you didn't have to since you could just reinstall it...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mazta132:
Yes, if included application from previous version is not there just extract from previous rom .zip then install manually. Just double check in weekly log if there is incompatibility reason why the developer doesn't include it

This rom update is great. I use tiamat kernel. But when the fist time I upgrade got bad experience. My phone is found blackout when it is downloading a game but I set wifi neve sleep.

12 hour digital clock

Sorry to bring this up again, but I still can't find a solution. Does anyone know how to change the digital clock widget (Clock 2x4) from 24 hour to 12 hour (with am and PM)?

I tried Settings > System > Date & Time Settings , but this only changed the time format in the notification bar, at the top right corner of the screen.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mazta132:
Yes it is the same with me. If I changed to 12 and click the widget show the correct hour. May be it is a bug.

Btw I don't use this widget, I use go weather widget & it is nice widget you should try
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] antinerd:
I would use the weather widget, but a don't think it has any Canadian weather locations (I live in Toronto), so I use the basic clock widgets.

v1.8.5

The link to download the latest v1.8.5 is still pointing to v1.7.29. When will this be updated / where can we download the new v1.8.5??

EDIT: The link for 1.8.5 is updated now. Thanks!

Can anyone comment if miui has better battery life then cm7?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Whippler:
flashed this on top of 7.22 no issues have emerged.. atleast yet

this is supposed to be in osimood forum...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
I get about 24 hours on a charge with moderate phone usage. pretty darn good if you ask me!

I have yet to run in to any problems with flashing over top of the previous version, and I always download and flash as soon as ROM Manager informs me of an update. Mind you, this is still Version 1. A flash MIGHT be required on the 2.1.6 release ;) But that is still a ways off!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hitman818:
Is the battery better on miui than cm7?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] urnamehere:
I'm having an issue with my physical keyboard. All of my quickkey shortcuts (which I don't use) are automatically selecting. For example if I type an 'e' it takes me to the email application. I know I can go in and deselect the quickeys but its still an issue. Also sometimes I have to hit alt to get the main character (ie if I hit 'b' I get a +, if i hit alt b i get a b). It is inconsistant though and not all letters do it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Athrun88:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] autom8r:
Big issues with this ROM. I superwipe+'d 2 times, factory reset and did all cache wipes... My phone was definitely clean before installing this ROM.

Issue 1 - try to use Voice Search, FC's everytime the browser should open.

Issue 2 - Phone Idle has used 3 times the battery of display in the last 2 hours. I have had the display on playing a offline game for the last 2 hours, display and the game should be the highest battery consumers, however, Phone Idle used 3 times the power!

Issue 3 - If you record a video in portrait orientation it playsback weird and you don't get a very large video. It's like a sliver of the width it should be. Only video while in the landscape oreintation looks normal.

Issue 4 - Where is landscape mode for the homescreens?

I love everything about this ROM, however, for me, these are deal breakers.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] brian.dore:
I can explain issue four for you... its not supported by miui. If you want landscape, install another launcher. Sorry to disapoint you.

Is the new pershoots kernel not compatible with this? When I tried to use the torch appbit wasnt working. I tried doing from the lockscreen and didnt work either.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RobBull69:
I can confirm that Pershoot's newest kernel does work with this. It doesn't break wifi or camera, which are tell tale signs that the kernel and rom don't play nice. I use the torch app daily and have not had issues. Maybe it was a corrupt download or different version?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ericjosepi:
EDIT: It was just an upgrade bug. Rebooting it fixed the issue. Sorry!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AreOh:
Wow... just installed this (which was super quick, btw) and I'm super lost. Coming from a stock Gingerbread ROM I can not figure out how to get my apps + data back.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Athrun88:
Did you do a backup of your apps with titanium? if you did, just go install titanium from the market again and you can restore your apps. I would recommend NOT restoring your data though since that WILL mess with the ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AreOh:
I did use Titanium Backup. So how do I get my old texts, notes, and other settings back? With this rom it's just all gone?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jandyman:
With miui best way is to use the miui backup app, preinstalled.

Otherwise you could use 'sms backup and restore' but miui backup is more complete.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AreOh:
Using the MIUI backup wouldn't help now. Since what needed to be restored is already gone and not showing on this rom. Bookmarks, notes, texts... that's all I can think of.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Athrun88:
Did you do a nandroid backup of your old rom? go back to it and you can back up your texts with GoSMS and restore it when you flash back to MIUI. As for bookmarks, there is an app called Backup Bookmarks, which is self explanatory. I don't think you can import your notes as MIUI uses a different app, not sure on that though.

I personally use GoSMS so I know that will work for sure. I just did a google search for the bookmark app, so give that a whirl.

It makes sense that nothing from the previous rom shows up in MIUI because, naturally, you would have to do a complete wipe =p. Just have to decide if it's worth the work to go back, back up properly, then come back to MIUI. I personally think it would be worth it, great performance on this rom for sure!

Is there a zip to flash a 4g icon to this rom.

Todays update is already on rom manager for anyone wanting to flash. Since its not upped here yet
