Swpe Licensing

Hi ALL,

Just installed the latest 1.85 form Rom Manager, all is good, except the swype licensing issue has reared its ugly head, tried the fix in Fassy general but no luck.

To all those involved, thank you for your hard work

Edit: Found a solution

Assuming you already have Swype installed,

1.Launch Swype Installer.

2.Tap Android Keyboard and select Android Keyboard as your default input.

3.Tap Disable Swype.

4.At the Language & Input Settings page that follows, hit the Home button, then go to Menu > Settings > Application > Application Management and uninstall Swype only. Do not uninstall Swype Installer.

5.Once again, launch the installer, login, download and install Swype. (If you resume the installer by holding down the Home button and selecting it from the Recent applications popup, back out of the Language & Input Settings page that appears, tap Generate License, login, download and install Swype.)

6.Reboot your device.

Once rebooted, Swype should be licensed and fully functional. If the keyboard isn’t already selected as your default input, you can do so from Menu > Settings > System > Language and Input > Current Software Keyboard.

I take it the flashlight doesn't work on this rom?

I don't know of this happening to anyone on a MTD Rom. This was a major issue with people using the Gingerbread Touch Wiz leak.

Can anyone else confirm this happening with 1.8.5?

For me the theme manager is gone from the launcher and when I go to re-install it still doesn't show up.

Edit: Above was fixed with a fresh flash of the rom.

I have no problems with MMS sending or receiving.
[Fascinate Android Development] jmac9:
Downloaded and so far only issues I have are Swype (used fix from above - thanks colklink14!) and back light notification not working (hopefully someone gets a workaround.....BLN isn't doing it either)

SD card is fine. Phone running smooth. Thanks again andmer!
[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Been running 1.8.5 since it popped up on ROM manager (shortly after andmer's tweet) without issue.

Wiped all 3 but didn't use the "cleaning script" this time. Calls and texts are coming through fine. Volume is set "too low to hear" on speaker initially, but simply turning it up to full nailed it. Also located an app called 'Volume+" on the market that seems to help with sound issues (speaker is set to +6 right now).
[Fascinate Android Development] Toddw:
My mms seems ok.I don't think it'll work with wifi enabled though.

does anyone else have a problem themeing the text/mms bubbles? my background color will change after applying a theme...but not the bubbles

+ 1 on needing the BLN control app

Only fc I've encountered is when sending a text that takes up more than one page fc'd the phone process, not a deal beaker just wondering if anyone experienced this?

Only thing I wish was in this was shortened LED lights, loved how they would only stay on for 3 sec, don't like how they stay on forever... Otherwise everything running fine as normal.

I have my corporate email on my device and it requires a PIN to be entered to unlock the device. With the Touchwiz ROM's, i would have to enter the PIN every 30minutes or so when not using the device. With the latest version of MIUI, i have to enter the PIN every time i unlock the phone which is a pain in the butt (i have to first unlock from the MIUI lockscreen and then enter my PIN). Is there anyway in MIUI to change this so i only have to enter the PIN after a given amount of time?

Thanks.

update to 1.8.5
[Fascinate Android Development] J Shed:
Got BLN, running the HL Glitch, no notification LEDs.
[Fascinate Android Development] pntballer505:
When switching over, must you also flash a Miui supported kernel(after wiping and flashing the rom) in recovery before booting up?
[Fascinate Android Development] tonu42:
BLN doesnt work properly because of the kernel. We need kernel source so we can get it 100 percent working. As in Blinking does not work, and its not always gonna stay on.
[Fascinate Android Development] jmac9:
No. The Rom has a kernel. After flashing you can change to the kernel of your liking but let the Rom boot first.
[Fascinate Android Development] Elluzion:
I've had 1.7.29 running on my phone for the past day and it is awesome!

the only issue i have found is that the lockscreen on/off sound doesn't work when enabled (i've checked volumes)

also, earlier this morning, i was trying to go into the market, and it said to enable background data, i enabled it and then it said NO DATA CONNECTION but my 3G was showing in the bar. it for some reason wouldn't connect to it.

anyone else having this issue?

p.s. can someone post a link to and's twitter, i want the new update
[Fascinate Android Development] akellar:
Andmer is this using the same kernel that has possibly been eating sd cards as reported on rootz and here?
[Fascinate Android Development] Schmarvin:
Cannot send or receive calls as of version 1.8.5. Awesome. Just what I need, a phone that can't send/receive calls.

I'm going back to 1.7
[Fascinate Android Development] DrkGhst87:
Hmm, I thought the BLN feature was part of the kernel... And the kernel included in 1.8.5 allowed the use of BLN control app. Glitch uses its own BLN feature that doesn't require a app, it's just built in. It has been known to not work for some since it hasn't been ironed out yet, maybe try the ML or LL versions. Other than that maybe stick with the included kernel if it's something you must have.

EDIT: I am on the kernel that is included with 1.8.5 and I'm using the BLN control app by neldar (I'm using the pro version, don't know if that changes anything) and just had a buddy call and text me to see if it works, and for me it did. Had to change the settings to get it to blink and not be a static light (I know it uses more battery but it grabs my attention when it blinks)

Question: What is the CLEANEST least destructive way to go from the 1.7.28 update to the 1.8.5 update??

I'm guessing wipe everything or just cache? & would I loseee my GLITCH kernel HL kernel>??? ;/

Thanks!:rolleyes:

Oh & one more thing, is it possible to flash the EC09 radio OVER the ED01 radio?

My 3G sometimes doesn't load when my phone powers off and comes back on, would EC09 work better?
[Fascinate Android Development] andmer:
AWESOME!, I put in an anti-schmarvin codec this week so it would **** up just for you. im so glad it worked!
[Fascinate Android Development] J Shed:
Don't need it, it's just annoying. Worked on 7/22 (I skipped 29) and all versions prior, so it seems something changed in the ROM that might have broken it. I might give the ML a shot just for s and gs though, thanks.

Oh, BTW, yes BLN is supposed to be wrapped into the Kernel.
[Fascinate Android Development] andmer:
not sure about that situation, but i'm using JT's 8/4 vanilla v4 kernel this week.
[Fascinate Android Development] millwood:
Andmer,

Great job on this and thanks for keeping it up to date for the Fascinate. Any word on the low volume for calls? Even if we could just get it cranked up 50% more it would be great. I have to say this thing runs super fast without many hiccups.
[Fascinate Android Development] wowser21:
:)

schmarvin, it works perfectly for me. If anything my calls connect quicker in this release. I recommend you try cleaning up your cache first and trying again, or if that doesn't work perform a clean install.

1.8.5 has been great so far for me. Thanks andmer!!!
[Fascinate Android Development] Jduke705:
OMG. You just made my day with this comment. Makes you even that much cooler Andmer!
[Fascinate Android Development] Bierce22:
Hey I was wondering if someone would be willing to help me port this to the continuum. It shouldnt be to hard because the faccenate and the continuum are relativly the same except for the ticker. Please pm me if you think you can help.

Thx in advance.
[Fascinate Android Development] kriddle04:
Hoping for a little help/advice. I put the updated miui on and now when i try to reload my backups for apps and system the phone just goes nuts and freezes. I have started from scratch miui about a dozen times and keep getting the same problem. Thanks in adavance.
[Fascinate Android Development] pntballer505:
Oh, gotcha. Thank you.
[Fascinate Android Development] neh4pres:
Are there any changes to the fascinate base this week? Or just changes to miui itself?

Thanks for everything andmer

[Fascinate Android Development] jmac9:
If you use the MIUI back up then wiping data and the caches is the best way. You will then have to flash the Glitch kernel after booting up. Not a big deal.

You can go with EC09 as far as I know.
[Fascinate Android Development] dricacho:
I just updated to 1.8.5 and this time, I have the same issues as reported. FC with SMS and no BLN. It looks like the Glitch kernel is causing the FC. So I reflashed the ROM and didn't use Glitch. So far, no FC. I'm gonna install BLN from the market and try to see if I get that working.
[Fascinate Android Development] pntballer505:
So if the Glitch kernel seems to be causing problems, what

other legitimate kernels are there for Miui?!?
[Fascinate Android Development] sendan:
Installing BLN from the market does indeed work.
[Fascinate Android Development] neh4pres:
Think I'll stay on the older miui.. Y change what's not broke :)

Coolie..

Just flash 1.8.5...went well..it fixed the alarm issue I had. Much thanks...

Now one thing I notice. The digital clock widget defaults to military time. How do change it off the 24 hours clock and back to 12 hours clock?
[Fascinate Android Development] Shamrock13:
Great.. The ROM deleted everything off my memory card. No more music, no more pictures. Absolutely nothing.
[Fascinate Android Development] prometheus1010:
I just got the FC issue with Glitch kernel as well. Was running fine most of the day and then suddenly constant FCs. I tried clearing cache and fixing permissions, but that was no help. Reflashed the rom and running the stock kernel fine for now.
[Fascinate Android Development] Rick S:
does anyone else have a problem themeing the text/mms bubbles? my background color will change after applying a theme...but not the bubbles.
[Fascinate Android Development] wowser21:
Yes I have exact same issue! At first I thought it was a theme issue but it happens with all themes.
[Fascinate Android Development] dricacho:
I spoke too soon on the SMS part. It will not FC as long as the messages are short. I just sent a 10 line SMS to a friend and it FC'd on me. Tried to clear the application cache, that didn't work. :-(
[Fascinate Android Development] streebs87:
I've also noticed themes aren't applying properly.

[Fascinate Android Development] Rick S:
thanks guys...just wanted to make sure it was a universal thing and not just me
[Fascinate Android Development] smilepak:
A few issues seen so far

1) Digital Clock Widget defaults to 24-hours clock / military clock

2) No matter what music player you use (doubletwist or standard MIUI), it only play each song for 2 seconds
[Fascinate Android Development] DrkGhst87:
Hmm, ran into the sms fc'ing only when I had a text that split into 2 pages. Also have a problem downloading anything from...anything... Can't DL from browser, twitter, any other app. Don't know if it's just me. Plan on doing a full wipe and clean install tomorrow since I'm off the next few days, so I guess I'll see.

EDIT: currently running 1.8.5 (of course), kernel that came with, and EC09 radio

[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
Anyone know where you can adjust the Vibrate sensitivty? I have looked for it in settings and cannot seem to locate it.
[Fascinate Android Development] filthy1:
please check!!!

Can someone please check to see if they can add a photo to a contact via the add photo option while editing a contact...I get a force close every time I try. This is the only wat I have f found to get full screen caller. I was able to do it until the july1 update. Can some other people check to see if they can set a photo or take one from this option. TIA.

[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
If having the issue, should we reinstall the Rom?
[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
Also, are we able to change the boot animation for MiUI? Are there different ones to choose from? I do not see them in the Theme Manager.
[Fascinate Android Development] Jduke705:
Theme manager > edit theme > boot animation??? I see it in there just fine. There are no preloaded ones to choose from. But across the top you can go to the online options. where there are a lot to choose from
[Fascinate Android Development] filthy1:
I can set a photo to a contact throught the gallery no problem but if I go into contacts and choose the add photo option so as to get the full screen caller id photo when I hit save it force closes on me every time.
[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
When I try to edit a contact to add a phone number to one from Facebook it doesn't give me any options to adjust and then goes into force close... I think that I just need to reinstall the Rom, or go back to previous version. I saw were some suggested installing Cyanogen MOD Rom first and then Miui if coming from Com Rom.
[Fascinate Android Development] filthy1:
I have re-wiped everything and reinstalled twice...no luck.
[Fascinate Android Development] Jstevenett:
Does anyone know if the problem where people can't hear you on the other end has been fixed?
[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
The new kernel in the development section fixes it from what I have seen.

The only one for CM7 and Miui
[Fascinate Android Development] Grimis:
When going from MIUI to CM7 or the other way around, are you suppose to wipe data/cache and dalvick?
[Fascinate Android Development] DarthCivicus:
All I did was wipe out my contacts and then re loaded the vcard back up and it seems to be working just fine.
[Fascinate Android Development] Junkboy0:
I do, every time. The exception to that would be when updating builds like 1.7.1.1 to 1.7.1.3 I wiped everything BUT data and that has worked 9/10 times

Would anybody be interested in a morph to remove the carrier label ("Verizon Wireless") from the statusbar? Check this screenshot out so you know what I mean http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15325743&postcount=201 and if there is enough interest I can start a thread in the theme section or maybe I can provide the zip to andmer and he can add it to the OP?

Sorry andmer if it seems I am hijacking the thread. I just want to contribute with things I can do but I need to gauge interest first to see if it's worth the trouble. Let me know if I'm being out of line and I'll remove this post.

Thank you andmer, jt, and nemesis for making me love my phone even more!

[Fascinate Android Development] PhoenixPath:
Lesson learned: Backup your sd cards, FFS!

Note: I have used every MIUI rom Andmer has released without this issue. Perhaps, just perhaps...it's not the ROM. Did you even, for one moment, consider that before blaming Andmer?
[Fascinate Android Development] Schmarvin:
Not cool, wasn't meaning for it to be an insult. Hence why I went back to 1.7.29

On 1.8.5 I do notice that I keep getting disconnected from google servers. It always asks me to sign in, so it never syncs. Any idea how to fix that?
[Fascinate Android Development] hector93:
Wow, so many issues... Ive only seen 1 so far. Just no BLN, but got fixed easily with the BLN Control app. I also tried flashing other kernels (Glitch) but seems to slow the ROM a bit.

Log in via a pc and manage your devices. There is a soft-limit of 20 or so. Each install counts every wipe, even if it is the same device/rom.

A minor bug I've experienced is with the charging dock. With the prior version the dock worked great. With the update the screen comes up when I put the phone in cradle like it's supposed to and the clock displays. After a couple of minutes lock screen comes up and stays like that the rest of the night. Any way to get it to work like before?

Few things... I'm getting cannot authenticate my phone when intrusion to make a call. I did the activation and it worked but no dice. Also I get the error when my phone the back arrow is being pushed and closes my apps. Any help?

I seem to have fixed the issue by just using my google apps account.
[Fascinate Android Development] lowtech80:
Are you restoring data and app, our just data? And what are you coming from?
[Fascinate Android Development] millwood:
Noticed a couple of things.

1. I am also getting the extended MMS problem with a force close. I get a force close on com.android.phone. Works perfectly with shorter messages.

2. Not sure that this is Rom related, but ever since I installed the 1.7.22 I have had issues with the MIUI music player showing the correct album art that corresponds to the music. I have manually downloaded all my album covers and synced them to the songs using MP3 Tagger. Never had a problem before this. Any ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] Shamrock13:
Hey, hey. You calm down there buddy. I'm not blaming Andmer at all. I've had this happen to me before on my Droid X last year. It's a freak thing, but it does happen. I'm thankful for Andmer's hard work he's been putting in. It just upsets me when this happens, and that I can't ever find what caused it. On my Droid X, I think it just happened with a random reboot, and I'm not even sure if it was on stock or if I had a ROM installed. Anyway, it's all right. I've gotten past the fact that me stuff was deleted.

On a side note, has anyone experienced the autobrightness not changing brightness at all regardless of the kind of light there is?
[Fascinate Android Development] adambobbyburgers:
That sensor still hasn't been fixed, I suppose. I'm still on 7/22 and auto-brightness won't work, so I'm assuming it is still borked on this build.

When receiving calls my phone rings, but nothing shows up on my screen until I hit the unlock button. I haven't changed any settings either. Any help? Thanks.

[Fascinate Android Development] lucas.scott:
yep ... my data left .. and doesnt seem to be coming back after several data wipes and reflashes ... guess ill try to odin the radio again .

edit:

Odined the EC09 modem again ... still no 3G . Anyone else faced this issue? Its very odd , since it worked all day until recently .

Can anyone link me to 1.7.29? Thinking about backtracking and coming back .
[Fascinate Android Development] Jazz848:
Have you tried Odin'ing back to DL09 radio and working your way up from there? This thread may be your ticket: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1097355 Nothing in there about EC09 though, so I'd wait to see if someone corrects me before you start an Odin journey...

To be honest, I've been using the ED05 radio since the first CM7 nightly with no noticeable problems, but I believe doing so is inadvisable in general.
[Fascinate Android Development] lucas.scott:
I may try ED05 then .. can always Odin back. I'm also exploring the possibility that 3G is just out in my area, that sometimes happens this time of night.

I actually went back to cm7 to see if data came back, and it didn't. So data outage may be the answer ...I'm hoping so at least.

Really great release other than the SMS theme issues, and this data issue that may or may not be related at all.

I have since flashed back to it from cm7 and still no data. Its 3:30am , so I guess ill leave it be and see what the morning brings.

Is anyone else not able to completely power off their phone and charge it? Apparently, this ROM forces a boot as soon as it receives power via the USB.

Went back to 7/22, too many bugs in these new versions.
[Fascinate Android Development] yaheath:
I have two problems with 1.8.5: GPS isn't working (never gets a lock; it was working in 1.7.29) GPS can take a long time to lock, and the light sensor works intermittently.

Actually, it seems like the light sensor works properly until I let it get dark, then it gets "stuck" at a reading of 6 and it doesn't change even if I shine a light directly on the sensor. Until I reboot the phone, anyway.

edit: the GPS actually does work, eventually, but it takes a while. See my next post for a possible explanation
