sorry guys, but i have to recook it. i just discovered that Toggle2G is demanding nearly every permission that exists and this is not needed for it to work.

something like this dos not sound trustfull thus i will not include it anymore, at least until someone cames ap with trustfull version.

i can't include something that has network permissions and the permissions to read everything and even being a system app that adds even some special permissions to it. there is something odd about this.

i strongly do not recommend using it!

p.s. if somebody comes up with a version that does not need such permissions i'll include it.
[Desire HD Android Development] AdrianM:
Damn! You're recooking it right now?
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
yes. it just finished. will start uploading in a few minutes.
[Desire HD Android Development] AdrianM:
Great. Thanks.

SCI MIUI 1.11.04v1.0 is up
[Desire HD Android Development] alienmind:
Yo! You stole my james xD

BlackICE community is crying for their loss...

---------- Post added at 12:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:39 AM ----------

My boot manager was missing sci ;-)
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
There appears to be a problem with download of 1.11.04 as it shows as a 2.32kb html document to download !

Edit:

You have to remove ?dl=1 from the end of the download link ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
don't know where you are clicking but there is no "?dl=1" in my download link. the link is correct. just rechecked.
[Desire HD Android Development] alienmind:
It gave me an error too. But after a few tries I could download it.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
strange. it is a direct link to the file on my wuala account. anyhow you can go to the bottom of the op and use the alternate download link which points to my wuala public dir.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
tomorrow i will go to the toggle2g thread and ask there about the unacceptable permissions it demands. it's totally crazy! the author has it only for download here on xda. on the market is only the plugin. i wonder if the reason is that it is maleware.

there does not seem to be any rational reason for such permissions.
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
On the wuala page the download link is

http://content.wuala.com/contents/stefan3141/SCI MIUI/public/rom/SCI-MIUI-1.11.04v1.0.zip?dl=1

Did you update SU binary?
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
hmm, you mean when you click my link you get to a wuala page and there the final link is what you are posting?

if so then wuala has currently a bug.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
ah, checked that. it has indeed dl=1 but it is working fine for me.

edit: is it working now for you or shall i upload to a mirror?
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Just tried, ok now.

Like you said, probably wuala problem.
[Desire HD Android Development] muneeb.ansari:
Just flashed. Smooth as ever. Trying without LordMod's kernel this time.

a user: for Toggle 2G, I'll also try figuring out if its malware. Although, I've used it for 6 months n haven't faced a situation which would male me think its malware. Anyway, going without it for now.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
a good maleware would "talk" very quiet to its home ;)

anyhow, if it isn't i don't see why the author shouldn't remove all this unnecessary permissions. will try to ask him tomorrow.
[Desire HD Android Development] Leechoonhwee:
hi auser,

I'm from Singapore and a MIUI user for sometime now. I'm very tempted to try your ROM but it seems that the ROM is optimized for EU only?

I am using the original MIUI ROM now as I needed both Chinese and English input and dictionaries so I am wondering the Android Keyboard that you included contains Chinese dictionaries as well?

Thanks!

Vincent
[Desire HD Android Development] alienmind:
@a user

I'm curious about your lowmemorykiller values. I'm kind of new to this, but learning fast ;-)

Your values (and also mine) slightly increased from the original ones, but only in the lower prio processes:

Originals:

echo "2048,3072,4096,6144,7168,8192" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

SCI-MIUI (and BI, you know I trust your experience):

echo "2048,3072,4096,6144,8192,16384" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

However the values suggested by zeppelinrox guy in V6 (768HP profile, intended for high memory devices like ours):

echo 1536,3072,38400,42240,46080,51200 > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/paramers/minfree

That means he will start killing way sooner for almost all levels (EMPTY_APP at 200MB, but even SECONDARY_SERVER at 150MB) but will keep FOREGROUND_APP a little more.

Something in my guts say that it's better to start killing later than sooner (like you do), but may be a slightly less value on higher prio processes could be good.

What are your thoughts about this?
[Desire HD Android Development] mr.bobbels:
Download for the new version is not working! I can´t download it.

Workes again!!!
[Desire HD Android Development] DrBasta:
Just a quick question...

I have SCI MIUI 1.10.28 v2.0 on my phone and I just downloaded new version.

So, what's the easiest way to flash new version and to keep up my phone setup (themes, apps and general setup...)? Is it just flash over (will my apps be gone then?) or do I need to do some backup to restore all my settings after?
[Desire HD Android Development] karanx:
Hi auser

very nice and good rom.

but insufficient contact app.

perhaps a better app that can change.

Is it possible that ?

google translate
[Desire HD Android Development] wiQbold:
;) good work

& danke nochmal
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
@dr.basta:

simply flash over your current one. all will be kept. remember to also flash your kernel if you are using a different one than the stock one.

@karanx : what are you missing? but you may wanna try "go contacts".
[Desire HD Android Development] DrBasta:
Thx mate!

I'm using stock kernel, so all good then :)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
@alienmind:

well, the reason why empty apps are not being killed (their process) is to increase the speed restarting them if needed later again.

we have to differentiate the to situations: aosp rom or sense rom:

1. aosp rom:

i usually have over 200MB permanently free. so even this aggressive values from zeppelinrox won'T make a difference. but if you start some games, assuming the consume, more memeory you can trigger the lowmemoryiiller.

2. sense rom:

i very rarely had 200MB of free memory when i was on sense rom back in the past. so i assume this is nearly permanently triggered. theoretically this should be by far too aggressive and slows down restarting apps.

overall i would say his settings are not good. my slightly modified ones are not really tested and usually would have any effect on an aosp rom. but i increased the value for empty apps a bit to ensure freeing memory fast enough in case it gets tied.

so finally, i agree with your conclusion.

regarding sense roms: one should test zeppelinrox values on sense roms, but using ONLY his lowmemorykiller values without all the other stuff to be sure that any observed effect is due to this and not anything else he is changing.

i would expect that the is no improvement but a slight slowdown of restarting apps that once already were started.

for aosp roms though his settings suck or are at least useless. most of the stuff he is changing is either without effect or useless and many things are suboptimal. he definitely does not know what he is doing and never tested each setting separately

if he feels offended by this i feel sorry as it is not my intention but what he did is not dev like, especially not that he promotes this script so universally working as he does.
[Desire HD Android Development] alienmind:
Yep but what about to decrease foreground app a little bit?

Sent with my fat fingers
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
did it ever happened to you that the app you are looking at got killed?
[Desire HD Android Development] alienmind:
Aren't launchers restarts related to that? It had happened to me in the past but I find hard to believe that I managed to waste all my memory...

Sent with my fat fingers
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
no. when a launcher gets restarted then it was not on foreground anymore. beside of this launchers memory and place in the memory can be tweaked elsewhere, like in build.prop.
[Desire HD Android Development] alienmind:
Sounds logical, the launcher couldn't be foreground forget what I just said:-)

Sent with my fat fingers
[Desire HD Android Development] karanx:
thanks for reply :)

I tried gocontact. but I do not like.

this contact app good.

but the best sense Contact . beautiful, but I do not like it.

your rom is very nice and stable.

gps successful and smooth. The biggest problem my gps.

Thanks for this rom

so

might be better to contact the app

for example,

facebook does not in some pictures.

make the default photo. After the picture is not facebook again.

google notes sometimes preview codec html.

I erased the codes one by one.

I think the space character codes.

I'm sorry I was busy forum.

thanks

sory english
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
hmm, sorry but i am not sure if i understand you.

it seems you have some problem with facebook pics. i remember that others had a similar problem but there was a solution. don't know it though. you might want to use the search and/or google.
[Desire HD Android Development] hawkwind:
I think syncmypix is the app needed for syncing facebook photos with contacts.

Just purchased systune to say thanks for your work a user.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
thank you very much!
[Desire HD Android Development] karanx:
thanks all :)

no problem :)
[Desire HD Android Development] kitecarl:
Apologies if this has been reported or solved before! I'm getting strange text, both on keyboard entry and on links, when visiting Google.com on the stock miui browser. I wonder if it sees the browser client and then displays text as Mandarin or Cantonese. Also, the default search engine in Miui appears to be Baidu. Any way to override it to Google in English? BtW I confirmed my Miui default language is English UK
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i remember in the past others had a similar issue. try switching your language to germanm then back to english and then reboot.
[Desire HD Android Development] gillepy:
The miui contact app will only sync profile pictures with face book if the name of the contact is exactly the same as on their facebook profile or if you manually join the two accounts. All my photos are synced fine.
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Do you have bandwidth saving mode enabled in browser settings?

If so disable.

Also, thought Id share the splash screen that jameslsmith kindly did for me.

It looks lovely when booting up, just need the boot anim to be modded a little now.

Edit: I actually think having the splash as the boot anim but with gears turning slowly would be great as it would simply be a continuation of the splash when you boot up.

My 2 cents ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i agree with your last sentence.
[Desire HD Android Development] karanx:
I'm sorry I do not speak English

I wrote a little bit as well as

1 step

manually add a contact picture icon

2 step

I gave up after. I wanted to delete picture icon. Then press the default picture.

but no facebook picture icon.

But I solved this problem with syncmypix.

thanks hawkwind

Hey guys, this will need further testing, but it seems I'm getting batt life over the couple days using a little tweak in the display settings by adjusting how often the light sensor records brightness levels from every 1 second to once every 10 seconds.

Settings -> Personal|Display -> Advanced Mode -> Sample Interval.

I only notice that it doesn't ramp brightness as quickly when light conditions change subtly. So, not much a problem for me at least.
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
I've PM'ed gfx designer jameslsmith and asked nicely if he would do it for our SCI community :)
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
I'll definitely do it when I get a little time :)....happy to do my little bit....
[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
I'm trying to apply different themes to dialer and text/sms. The theme changes, but background stays white when it should be black. I have tried multiple themes, same result.

Is there a setting somewhere else that dictates light or dark theme on dialer and sms?

Edit: clearing data did not help, either. I fixed it by manually deleting all messages and call log. Now it is all dark. Strange that clearing data for messaging and dialer didn't delete the sms messages.
[Desire HD Android Development] Jackones:
Still (or again) having huge battery drain.

Did Full Wipe and i'm using the systune settings.

Verdammt :)

Hey jagdave lol, long time no seen! :p

Ontopic: I still got FC problems example with MMS when i install the dutch language pack even with this new version :(
[Desire HD Android Development] pjprofili:
I find that turning the filtering off entirely works fine for me in most conditions. Got to be a saving there!
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
@Jackones : i think it is an app problem you have. start with a full wipe without restoring apps. then restore only a few apps and see if you get the drain, etc.

@victoryo : no idea.

@RampageRR : sms messages are stored elsewhere. for this there is a container app.

@all/toggle2G: it seems the reason that toggle2g is shown to be demanding so many rights is only because it runs under the system process id. i decompiled toggle2g and its manifest file does not ask for so many permissions. so it seems to be true.

though it actually could still use this permissions as it gets them while running under the system process id.

beside of that if i decide to release again a version including toggle2g you need to do a full wipe for it to have toggle2g working.
[Desire HD Android Development] muneeb.ansari:
I like ..
[Desire HD Android Development] kitecarl:
+1 for me - Big fan of Toggle 2g. In my (notably) unscientific testing I think it saves me around 10% battery on a daily basis. Great to have it baked right into SCI.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i will do it... later today/evening.
[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Forgive my ignorance but is Tasker needed to be able to use Toggle2g?
[Desire HD Android Development] muneeb.ansari:
No. Its a stand-alone app AND! it has the Tasker plugin built-in ..
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
Update......Update.....

New Splash and Boot Anim.....

[Desire HD Android Development] djcsurf:
Nice James

It's a keeper for me ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] kitecarl:
I've had little success getting Toggle 2g running effectively in a Tasker profile, so I use it fully standalone. Have it set up to throttle down to 2g only after 10 minutes screen off, and then have the Notification add-on installed that allows me to manually switch back to 3g if needed. Perfect for work where I can continue to receive emails over 2g during the day, but save on the battery power. I'll then switch back to 3g for the commute home. Perfection!

SCI MIUI 1.11.04v1.1 is up

FULL WIPE IS TRONGLY RECOMMENDED! SEE NOTES BELOW DOWNLOAD LINK!
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
Haha. Thanks man. I'll keep trying to improve on it though :)

I hope all the other lovely SCI Users like it too ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] HkDng:
I got fc on Systune all the times when trying to open, even full wipe.

Any xp on this? Thanks.
[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
I am back to SCI after messing with Sense 3.5 for a little while. I know there have been issues with sound. I flashed Lord's latest beta, and deleted the libsqlite.so from the zip before flashing. No audio through the headset.

Tried also without touching the libsqlite.so file. No sound. MIUI included kernel works fine. What do we need to change to get it working with miui now?
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
I use LorDmod UE V8.2b1 BFS kernel with both BlackICE and SCI Miui.....It's the ****!
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
@HkDng : with rom versionv1.1? anybody else?

@RampageRR : i didn't tried any kernel newer than 8.2.

p.s. i didn't flashed v1.1 myself yet. am currently backuping my stuff. but i didn't changed anything beside what i mentioned.
[Desire HD Android Development] RampageRR:
Did you do anything to the kernel before flashing for MIUI? Are you using a DHD or Inspire?
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
Nope just download and flash in recovery as you would a ROM...I'm on a DHD :)
[Desire HD Android Development] HkDng:
Yes, version 1.1 latest one.

Edit: I got it running after sometimes of fc, dont know the reason :)

Thanks.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i did a full wipe and installed v1.1 and kernel 8.2CFS and sound works, systune is not crashing and everything else seems fine.

am now restoring my user apps with titanium pro.

after that i restore system settings via miui backup.

and at the end i will try the new kernel 8.3 b3.

edit: @jameslsmith: new animation looks great. only thing is it needs to be smoother animated, more fps please :D

oh and there is a small glitch but nothing important: the gears are moving/jumping slightly along there axis.
[Desire HD Android Development] muneeb.ansari:
a user .. I also faced FCs with SysTune when I tried the first test build with Toggle2G. They disappeared after a couple of restarts if I remember correctly.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
could be because it didn't got superuser rights. on first start the popup for superuser conflicts with the other popups of the systune app.
[Desire HD Android Development] HkDng:
No, has granted super user for Systune already then run it and got fc, I restarted DHD 2 times, now installing apps and I got it runnig.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
oh wait... i think i know why. you didn't setup up your google account, right?

systune needs a working market account for license checking. if no valid license is found it checks if it is on SCI MIUI.

but it does fc if there is no market account at all :D

should fix that... lol
[Desire HD Android Development] HkDng:
Have 1 issue: always it puts "\" in front of my full hotmail address when setting corporate hotmail to sync. SO can not sync hotmail at all :(
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
where does it put the "\". how do you see this?
[Desire HD Android Development] HkDng:
In account setting/Server settings/Incoming settings: at "Domain\Username" box, like that: "\<my_hotmail_ID@hotmail.com".

Deleted but then I come back to settings there appears again and again ...
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
is this new? or did you had this issue already on 1.11.04v1.0?

@alL: btw it seems that on 1.11.04 controlling the call-ring volume is bugged. hope they fix it on next update :(
[Desire HD Android Development] HkDng:
Just wipe and flash 1.11.04v1.1, dont know about version 1.0.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
what did you had before?

want to know if i did something wrong or it is a miui bug of 1.11.4 base. but seems this is it.

in this case nothing i can do. we have to wait till miui fixes this. i also so another new bug on 1.11.4:

call ring volume cannot be changed with other apps anymore (like llama etc.). also you cannot change it via volume keys being at the home screen. it works if you are in the settings and pres the volume keys though.
[Desire HD Android Development] dekkyy:
You mean you can't set volume with volume buttons on home screen? It's working fine on my rom.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
strange. it is not working for me.

maybe the 4way reboot version i use makes trouble. gonna check that out later.

i did a full wipe for the new version and even after a fresh install it fails.

dekkyy are you using 4way reboot mod? if so where do you got it from? and have you anything else modifying android.policy.jar ?
[Desire HD Android Development] dekkyy:
No, i'm not using 4way reboot. I'm using 4ext recovery updater for rebooting my phone and didn't modify android.policy.jar
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
ok. then i guess they borked it this time :(

this 4way reboot mod and the volume plus mod (how i love this one) are causing too often trouble. i think i will keep it as optional for the future.

edit: glad you were looking into my thread from time to time :P. we miui peeps have to stick together ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
Yeh. When I get more time I'll do a lot more frames but at the moment if I up the fps its far too fast.....

Also the glitch I actaully noticed but for some reason no matter how many times I redo it in Photoshop it doesn't quite sit the same each time even though it seems that way on the pictures.....I'll spend a bit more time perfecting it soon :)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
no worries... looks great anyway. i am just a perfectionist... and it is a pain in the ass not only for the others :D

edit: but lucky that i am also damn lazy which helps to make up a bit for that :P
[Desire HD Android Development] horsetastic:
I always say laziness is closest to greatness :)
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
this is driving me mad...

i removed 4way reboot mod and i still can't change ring volume via volume keys while being on the home screen (and ofcourse it fails changing it with llama).

could some of you test this? want to know if it is a rom issue or something else. i also asked at freesshly squeezed rom thread to check if it is miui-germanys fault.

Changing volume in home screen works for me, and I'm using 4wayreboot.

[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i have a bad feeling about resigning the apks :(

if this is indeed the case than it's either toggle2g or fixing this bug. damn!

started to like toggle2g.

edit: on second thought it can't be the singing. it didn't worked for me already on my v1.0. so what the hell could it be.
[Desire HD Android Development] a user:
i got a response from the freshly squeezed thread.

AdrianM, are you on my 1.11.04v1.0? and while on the homescreen, not on settings or something else you can change ring tone volume via the volume hardware keys at the side?

cause my theory was that it is a miui-germany base issue. a post on freshly squeezed thread seemed to confirm this as one has the same issue there. so it is strange you do not have this problem Oo
[Desire HD Android Development] AdrianM:
Ok, there is a problem. Changing volume works for me in launcher, gallery, but doesn't work in FriendCaster, TweetCaster, Tapatalk, root explorer. Those are the apps i've tested so far.

EDIT: Doesn't work in maps, goggles, Dropbox, Google+, maps...

Works in quick office, calendar, monitor, sms, gmail, browser...
