[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
The only data that was restored was via TB and only for Market & Amazon AppStore apps, I know not to restore system apps.

When MIUI war originally installed I was coming from CM7 which also oddly enough was experiencing the same problems...which also was using the same radio I was using with MIUI. I wasn't using the 5.06 radio though, I was using 11.19 I believe.

When I went from a Sense ROM (Redemptive Revolution) to CM7, I did wipe data/factory reset (as well as cache and dalvik) but not system. Did all the same stuff when going from CM7 to MIUI (including not formatting system.)

The phone is using the correct version of CWM, 3.0.0.8 & its the SLCD Dinc btw.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
Forgot to ask what is the "right" way to format system? When I go into CWM, I notice that system mounted. Should I unmount it? I'm guessing the answer would probably be yes.

Oh ok, I'm a cm7 convert. Idk how long I can go without it

I cant change the headphone volume for the radio either. That and the chinese dnd really need a fix.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Squale:
Can some tell me how to tell what kind of screen I have? AMOLED or SLCD.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Doddzilla:
Google it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Squale:
Thanks for your "help".

For anyone else who wants to know, here's what I found:

Go to Settings: About Phone and look for the hardware revision. 002 is AMOLED, 003 is SLCD. (Running MUIU.US Rom I could not find hardware revision)

Alternately, go into a dark room and load up an image with a lot of black in it. If it's completely pitch black in the black areas of the image, you've got AMOLED. If you can see some light bleeding through in those areas, it's SLCD.

However, the easiest way I found is to pull the battery and look at the Model number. If it is ADR6300VW, it is AMOLED. If it is ADR6300VWS, then it is SLCD.

Hope this saves everyone else some time.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RyanTX:
Yeah, there have been numerous threads on this site showing you how to find out which screen you have. I am glad you were able to find it, too bad dodd was being a waste of space.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Doddzilla:
I don't make the forum rule's I just follow them. And as u stated that has been answered several times. Probably in Android GENERAL QUESTIONS.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_nivesout:
Hm, JagoX, I don't really know what could be causing the FC issues you were having. It sounds like you know what you're doing when it comes to restoring apps and data so its most likely not that. If it was happening on CM7 too, then maybe there's an issue with some system data still remaining from the sense rom. About formatting system, just to "mounts and storage" and format /system, no need to mount it as that's done automatically (as you saw).

Spence - thanks for working on that keyboard, I didn't get a chance to DL before you edited your post, but that's very cool of you to do. I'm sure there would be other people out there that would use a blacked out or black/blue GB keyboard. It would be awesome if the keyboard theme could be changed just like everything else inthe theme manager. That's one thing I like about CM7, although I LOVE how you can mix and match elements of themes with MIUI.

Kichard - I actually was using swiftkey with that skin for a while. The reason I stopped using it was because the space key is just a bit too small, I would always end up hitting the key right next to it. Same thing with backspace too IIRC, its probably just me though because I know a lot of people swear by swiftkey. For some reason though, I'm just faster on the GB keyboard, even moreso than swype, and I'm fairly proficient swyping.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_nivesout:
Ha, glad I'm not the only one.

As far as wiping, I thought the word from the MIUI devs was to just do a cache/dalvik wipe, like CM7 nightlies.

I'll be flashing when the extended settings mod is updated or confirmed to work with 1.8.5.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trimax84:
I did not do full wipe, just dalvik, everything seems fine for me so far....

do i have to wipe cache etc, to update? first time MIUI user, loving it, bugs and all, and i dont really want to install everything all over again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hovercraftdriver:
Stock browser loads a couple of pages then hangs (program doesn't freeze or force close) while loading after that; default, mobile, chrome desktop mode, doesn't matter. Have to reboot to get it working again, anyone else experience this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trimax84:
I sometimes get something similar where the page just doesn't seem to load unless I wait a long time. Depending in my level of patience when it's happening I may just fire up dolphin browser.

The lag I experience doesn't require a reboot though....just 1-2mins of staring at the white loading page.

Yes, that's a previouse MIUI version. Remember, wiping cache and dalvik does not clear your phone. Wiping DATA will make you have to redo everything, etc. As long as you only wipe cache and dalvik, all your apps, settings, etc will remain.

Just cache and dalvik cache.

Has anyone else had problems downloading certain apps in the android market? Some apps in the market do not have a button at the top to download or install an app. And when I go to the web version of the market it says the app is not available for my phone. I know this isn't true because they are apps that I have had in the past. I've seen it with Google books, words with friends and another app I can't remember right now. Anyone know what could be up?

As a general rule of thumb, if you are getting FC's you should do a fresh flash. Especially with an Android version number change.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
It's happening again! :( :confused:

Here's the details on the phone:

- Dinc (SLCD) w/ 2.15.00.11.19 radio

- Chad's 06/27/2011 (v2.6.38.8) kernel (using smartass obviously)

- CWM 3.0.0.8

- MIUI v1.7.22

- MIUI Launcher (3 screens)

Nothing from the MIUI ROM was removed with TB Pro either & the only changes made have just been from app specific options settings. When I installed the ROM I not only wiped cache, data & Dalvik but I also wiped /system too so I was starting from scratch.

I've already gone into CWM...cleared out cache, Dalvik, Fixed Permissions, rebooted & let the phone settle in...and still stuff was crashing.

I had one hypothesis which was is I think it all started when I enabled a Tasker profile I made which set the CPU to run at full speed when the batter was greater then 50%. When it hit 49% though it would (still using the smartass governor) and run no higher then 780Mhz.

Anyone think that the Tasker profile could be the culprit? Everything else was solid & after removing it entirely, the phone seems to be fine (i.e. no apps closing on their own that weren't even being used.)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
The one thing the irks me more than anything else about MIUI is that with the default messaging app, the messages never sort in order of sent and received, only in order of sent. I hate getting a text message from a client that I haven't spoken to in several days and then have to scroll to the bottom of my inbox to read it!

Does anyone know if there is or will be a fix for this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kthung:
Wow thanks! I've been trying to figure out for the longest time why they were ordered so strangely. To me its only a minor annoyance but I suppose if you get a lot of messages from different people it would cause lots of problems. While using Go SMS on Miui my messages were sorting fine, perhaps try a third-party messaging client.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kthung:
Does anyone else get a force close whenever they try and take a picture? This is incredibly annoying and a potential deal breaker for MIUI. I can open the app fine and can change settings but whenever i actually press the button to take a picture I get a force close. I've tried changing all the settings to no avail. This has been happening on every release since 1.6.24. I've noticed this happens when I try and install just by wiping cache and dalvik. Once I go back and do a full wipe and restore it works fine. Anyone else know a better way to fix this?

Edit: I just tried rebooting the phone without going into recovery and now the camera seems to be working. Hopefully it will stay this way.

I can't for the life of me get wireless tether to work. I have a fresh install of .8.5. It enables but my computer will not connect. Sucks hard when I need it in a crunch.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 318sugarhill:
Google voice is working fine for me. This would be a deal breaker if it didn't. Also, this is the first version of MIUI that actually runs well on my phone. Way to many FC issues on past releases made it unusable for me. So glad this one fixed all those for me. I have yet to have an issue other than having to manually force stop the camera app the other day because of an all black screen when trying to take a picture. I'm really starting to like this ROM. I was a huge sense fan, and this at first just seemed like an iphone clone, but now I'm seeing it's waaaaaaaay more than that.

Browser does suck though. What is a good browser on the market to use? Not a fan of Dolphin or Firefox. Viewing web pages like a desktop is a must for me, so need a good one for that.

Has anyone changed Kernels with this? If so, any recommendations?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
It sounds to me like you're not getting a good wipe, even with what you did wipe. Go into CWM, do the wipe data/factory reset. Then go into mounts and storage and format boot, system, cache and data (be careful not to format your sdcard), then flash the rom. FC's are usually a sign of remnants of another rom being left behind.

possible fix for video mms

For those experiencing the issue of having mms video show up as slideshows (qcp file), try this one out! I just modified the mms.apk with the config file from the latest CM7 nightly, so I take no credit for any coding. Sure hope it helps some people out!

And as an aside, I was also only able to record videos approx. 12 seconds long when creating an mms. With this modified apk, I am now able to record a full 30 seconds! That alone was huge for me.

Push this mms.apk to your system/app folder, replacing the one currently there (though you should back it up somewhere just in case). Be sure to set the permissions correctly (rw, r, r) and then reboot. I had to reboot twice to get the icon to show up for whatever reason. Let me know you results!

1.8.5 is great, but coming from 6.24 I've noticed that the transitions through the home pages aren't as smooth anymore. What's up with that? I'm using chad's latest kernel too. Would this have anything to do with setcpu by any chance? I just have it set at smartass.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hovercraftdriver:
I personally never liked the smartass scaling...especially on MIUI. Found my experience was better setting it to conservative. With 1.8.5 though, the included kernel seems to be doing very well for smoothness and battery life. The last few releases, I have given stock kernel a few days to experiment before I switched to Chad's kernel, and have gone on and switched. Don't think I am going to this time, FWIW.

I couldn't do anything on my phone after going from 7.29 to 8.5. I did the wiping of cache/dalvik and got force closes left and right. I did a MIUI backup within the ROM, factory data reset, then restored my apps and all is well now. Battery life seems to be better too (I am using InvisibleK's kernel).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TheWhiteBandito:
Yeah probably will do that. I have been spending more time working on my app rather than actually using my phone heh :)

I'm using incredikernel and battery life has been better here too even without a full wipe. I read somewhere that 2.3.5 brings improved battery life, is that true?
