I've found ALTdrawer.apk :D provides me an appdrawer. Thx :) but I've backed up the MIUI and restore my stock 2.3.4 with zeam.
[Nexus S Android Development] Bandis710:
I am very new to MIUI , have been using it for 2 days now and I am really impressed ! I really like the look and feel and gives me a "i have a new phone"experience .. The one thing I do not like is the launcher , I do not like having all icons on my desktop .. I therefore installed launcherpro and think it works great together with Miui .. Are there alot of you using an alternative launcher or is it a bit of blasphemy to use another launcher ?
[Nexus S Android Development] Shivammcool:
Actually, it is

That the whole point of miui. If you want to Change the launcher you should have went with Cyanogen Mod
[Nexus S Android Development] Shivammcool:
Yep
[Nexus S Android Development] Bandis710:
That is not making sense ! As if cyanogen or Miui only consist of a launcher .. I like miui because of all the different toggles, the dwitches in the menus the menu structure, the easy skinnable and easy changeable lockscreen, the themeability of the ui itself etc etc . MIUI and cyanogen both have a lot of things that set them apart , it not only the launcher.
[Nexus S Android Development] pooley:):
+1 actually I was stuck. I have to made a choice between MIUI or AOSP, I like app drawer, but on the other hand I like the MIUI menu (not the structure) and the easy way skinnable part, but seeing all the apps on the pages was kind of messy..

But I think ALTdrawer could fit to your needs Bandis
[Nexus S Android Development] Bandis710:
Where did you find altdrawer ? I can't seem to find it in the market .
[Nexus S Android Development] pooley:):
ALT Drawer this way
[Nexus S Android Development] Bandis710:
Ok, thanks for the tip. Tried it and it does what I want. Now I have figure out how to remove all the icons from the desktop without uninstalling them. Only option seems to be to put them in one folder.
[Nexus S Android Development] pooley:):
Yes that's what I've done... A folder in the corner of a homescreen, I tried deleting the screen which contains the folder (believing the result will be the same that on an AOSP or a launcher : erase the page and the app (shortcut)) but nope the folder is automaticaly put on the next page...

I tried it twice as well. Too laggy and a big battery drain. I have MIUI-XJ on my Desire - it's faster and better on the battery (one-year old battery on the desire).

MIUIANDROID hasn't yet brought their crespo rom to stable yet. There is only a beta version. Waiting on that day with anticipation.

I have a problem by using the address book. Since I installed whatsapp and viber in my Miui.us.1.7.22.

For whatsapp >> I found that the contact in whatsapp cannot extracts the contact from the people who is using whatsapp from my address book into the contact list of whatsapp. hence there is no any contacts shown in my whatsapp contact list.

For viber >> the contact can be extracted from my address book but when there is a new joinner to viber, it will not automatic update to viber contact list unless I clean all the data and refresh the contact list by re-install the viber....(I have also pass this to Viber...)

Any one has the same issue with me???

Been running this ROM this MIUI since last week and very good

make sure you go to launcher settings and set hi-res to low .cant even see a difference but makes a huge improvement on performance

Also try with matrix kernel its stock 1.2 and really makes this ROM fly also thry this i posted a few pages back it helps allot also

Never though i would part from CM7 but i think i have finally.

This ROM is fantastic not to mention im totally hooked on making themes so much customization.

Also battery is allot better than CM7 on any kernel

Never really like miui prior but at the same time i never gave it a chance but now that i have im really pleased its breathing new life into my NS :D

Many problems with MIUI 1.7.22

Hello everyone,

sorry excuse my English school and my little knowledge of the excellent MIUI.

- 1 problem: I have problems with battery life. I'm out all day and now I can not reload as the sea every night, so I need a good battery life. With cyanogen7 I was fine with the latest kernel james bond. With "MIUI" what I do for a good time?!? James Bond is compatible with the MIUI?

- Problem 2: Registration records a file called "amr" but it is empty, can not hear anything. Why? If I use the recorder's default MIUI, the files "amr" registry that you feel fine, no problems. Only those phone calls are muted.

- 3 problem: With the Cyanogen (which is more similar to the stock) was the "Accessibility" which allowed me to set the key lockscreen, ends as a keyboard Call (very convenient). MIUI disappeared in the "Accessibility". Or I wrong?

- 4 issue: Toggles on the desktop instead of opening more notifications. How? I wish, as I did in Cyanogen, a beautiful single-toggle (better sync or 3g) on the desktop. In Cyanogen was born in MIUI how? The widget "Power Control" has only a few toggle between which there is neither the "sync" or the 3g. you can install the widget on Cyanogen MIUI? It would be really nice.

- 5 problem: When I choose, in the settings, scroll to the toggles in the dropdown menu and not the page, there are toggles the "sync" and "3G". If I choose the page no longer those toggles. Why?

- 6 problem: In my version on the desktop is an icon of a program that has not been translated from Chinese and tells me that if I click "This program is not installed."

I have a Samsung Nexus S - MIUI 1.7.22 - Language Pack ita by nexus lab.

I hope that the developers of the fantastic MIUI read this thread.

Thanks.

Guys, my problems?!

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16087236&postcount=449
[Nexus S Android Development] pooley:):
1 - kernel matr1x v5.5 (our international Mathkid is doin great, no battery drain with this one)

2 - you want to record phone calls? Or the amr extension cause you trouble?

3 - if I get it you want a instant application unlock + access on your lockscreen? If so, try themed lockscreens on theme manager app, or try the widgetlocker apk provided on the market.

4 - go to theme manager, then edit them. In notification bar look for the KOBALT_IC3 (I'm using it actually).

Done.

5 - press to activate/hide or deactivate/hide ... OR long press to enter toggle setup,

6 - do not use :)

Has the theme manager always been broken or is it just this build?

Thememanager if flaky in this build .. Wel actually the biggest problem is in the online themes .. If you download a theme from for example xda it will be okay .. Not to impressed with this build though .. Browser is great but the the icons not keeping position on the laucher ( dock) , the thememanager problems and a few other quirks makes 1.7.29 a lot less stable than 1.7.22

Hi! Had a very strange occurrence last night with this ROM. I just flashed it yesterday (have tried the ROM several times and never had this). At precisely 10:30PM, an alarm started going off on the phone. No notifications popped up and I had no alarms set for that time. I played with it for quite a while but could not locate the source of the alarm. It was not even an alarm I had chosen for anything. Anyone have any ideas/similar experiences?

I also noticed that the ROM wont let me set a ringtone for SMS. I keep setting one but it stays on silent after I apply a tone and exit the picker.
[Nexus S Android Development] jerrycycle:
Theme will still work.
[Nexus S Android Development] bringonblink:
Yup tried it out its sexy as hell xD

One little annoying thing is the file broswer that comes with MIUI, you can't browse internal memory :S

Is there like a modded 'root' file broweser? Would love to stick with the MIUI theme, but worst comes to worse ill install root explorer
[Nexus S Android Development] Heeter:
Hi all,

Testing MIUI for a bit now.

I really would like a bullet-proof kernel to go with this ROM. The Kernels I am testing are not working with my bluetooth device.

I tried Netarchy 1.3.7CFS, Netarchy 1.3.9CFS, Matr1x 5.5, none work with MIUI and my bluetooth device.

The default MIUI kernel seems to be the only one.

I would an alternative kernel to get voodoo v10 working, for my headphones.

Maybe someone can recommend a voodoo alternative for MIUI?

Also, Can I get the App bar at the bottom to have 4 or 5 icons, instead of only 3?

Thanks

Heeter
[Nexus S Android Development] bringonblink:
Can not think of any kernels, but you could just get VooDoo Plus from the market. It loads the relevant modules so you don't actually need a compatible kernel.

The downside is you have to pay!
[Nexus S Android Development] asb123:
just drag an drop more icons in, i tried up to 6 icons
[Nexus S Android Development] asb123:
anyone able to help with this?
[Nexus S Android Development] Heeter:
DOH!!! Should of known better.

[Nexus S Android Development] bringonblink:
Which theme are you using?

I am using this one and it all works fine.

It's the official MIUI dark theme
[Nexus S Android Development] asb123:
My status bar is "metal build"

I pieced the theme together because when i look online for whole themes and click on one, the theme app force closes.

Ill try that theme, thanks!
[Nexus S Android Development] bringonblink:
Ah you were in the same boat as me! This theme is defo the one for you then.

You might have to right click and save to get the actual file. then put on sdcard, and with theme manager there should be an 'import' button somewhere.

Then you are good to go!
[Nexus S Android Development] Bandis710:
MIU.US just posted a newer 1.7.29 rom with some fixes ( all chinese gone, launcher bug fixed ((icon position was mixed up after reboot)) Online theme manager bug not fixed, they recommend to use theme manager from 1.7.15 .. There is a chance they will post a flashable zip for that
[Nexus S Android Development] Heeter:
Let us know if they do post a flash for that. I guess this is the only way to change bootanimation and add themes. I don't have permissions to do this directly into the /system/media folder, looks like it is a read-only permission

Hey all,

Is there a Call Log only screen? One without the dialpad in the way?

Or maybe someway to minimize the dialpad would be great too.

Is there a way to get the touch buttons in front of my NS to light up when a notification arrived? Kind of like the BLN app?

Thanks

Heeter
[Nexus S Android Development] denteca:
I need the same.

I also need the widget "power control" of CyanogenMod, customizable and configurable as I will, instead of the standard MIUI. How do I?

With the stock firmware or CyanogenMod is the key "Accessibility" in the settings. In MIUI does not exist? I needed to finish the phone call with the power button. It can be done with the MIUI?

Thank you.
[Nexus S Android Development] jerrycycle:
Slide down on the screen dialer will minimize. Accessible is in miui. Use launcher pro to make shortcut.

Or install a app that need to access that feature.
[Nexus S Android Development] Heeter:
Thanks Jerrycycle,

I am going to do that from now on. It is still there when I hang up on a call, though. Hopefully there is a way to keep it minimized at all times.

Thanks

Heeter
[Nexus S Android Development] roshga:
go to settings->call settings

i think there is an option "show dialpad", set it to off, maybe that'll do it.
[Nexus S Android Development] deejaylobo:
Hey, just learnt. You can finally hide apps on MIUI's launcher. Through Access Control settings. Awesome!
[Nexus S Android Development] mizunox:
I haven't had any luck with 1.7.29.

Up until now I've been able to just flash each new rom over the previous.

With this new version as soon as the launcher loads it crashes, then it crashes again and again..

I tried wiping cache, system, data, boot, then flashing it. It worked for a few hours then started to crash again.

I'm back on 1.7.22 for the tmie being.
[Nexus S Android Development] bringonblink:
Sir, i thank you.

Annoyingly, not all the apps are shown there :S For instance compass.

Bug perhaps?
[Nexus S Android Development] deejaylobo:
That's odd. Maybe check after a reboot?
[Nexus S Android Development] bringonblink:
I did :S

Does this happen for you?
[Nexus S Android Development] deejaylobo:
You're right. There are a bunch of apps(mostly the system apps) that don't show up on the list. And a few are not mutually exclusive. Eg: you cannot hide Latitude without hiding Maps.
[Nexus S Android Development] Heeter:
Hi thanks roshga,

I tried that already, still doing it!

Dialpad still showing up after call hangs up

Heeter
[Nexus S Android Development] bringonblink:
The more i think about it, the more it makes sense.

I mean you use access control because you don't want people to see your private data. Well there IS no private data on compass so no need for it to be hidden.

I just wish someone will come up with a way to hide them from the homepage lol
[Nexus S Android Development] roshga:
ohh you ment AFTER a call. well then im sorry my friend, there is no way hide the dialer just on special occasions. you just have to minimize it every time :P
[Nexus S Android Development] Heeter:
Thank You Roshga,

I guess I will have to do that.

I found another problem.....I set my alarm last night to wake up this morning, I could not select a ringtone.

Everytime I do select a ringtone, it goes back to "silent" automatically.

Heeter
[Nexus S Android Development] bringonblink:
I have had this problem for the last 2 days its been annoying me to no end lol.
[Nexus S Android Development] Bandis710:
Well there is an easy fix for that .. Put your alarmsounds on your sd ( you can copy them from your system/media folder with root explorer if need) now when you want an alarmsound , select music insted of thememanager to select the sound and voila your alarmsound is set :-)

i LOVE MIUI, but i really don't like the search function and the long press on the home button. Seems like it takes longer to get the most recent apps than stock android.
[Nexus S Android Development] deejaylobo:
Download the Google Search app, copy it from /data/app to /system/app and rename it to QuickSearchBox.apk (make sure the permissions are same) then reboot. This should bring up stock search when you click the search button. The MIUI search app (Sidekick.apk) should stay put and come up when you long press Home. But, if it doesn't work, try deleting Sidekick and rebooting. This will disable any action on long press Home, though.
