You're probably right, the MIUI backup app is probably sufficient. I've been using Ti for so long, and like it so much that I stick with it. Not to mention it's nice to be able to restore apps on non-MIUI based ROMs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Careless_:
Looks like MIUI Backup works well. But I agree that the Ti Backup would be a good idea. So I guess restore MIUI settings and restore roms using Ti is the best solution.

:-)

But at least now I can do all this stuff without having to put off updates because I don't want to reorganize.

Btw, tun4fish, just did a Quadrant. Scored exactly 3100 points :-)

There probably won't be a fix to the unknown number issue. I've been on MIUI for about 7 months now and it hasn't been fixed, so I gave up on waiting for it.

can I skip the update 1.11.11 and go straight to 1.11.18? or Do I need to upgrade to 1.11.11 first?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rick83:
well, the pic is totally gone. installed quickpic and its still not there.

Tried accessing it from my pc and also the pic aint there.

I guess its time to change the rom. Cant afford for my pics to go missing.. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
The issue is that gallery deleted the pic, not that it just can't find it any more. If you delete gallery and install quickpic, I don't think you will have a problem any more.

Edit: sorry for your picture loss though..sometimes a picture is irreplaceable.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
definately not hardware, came from RCMix and bluetooth worked fine.. just wondering if its a bug coming from just me or others as well?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
The Sense 3 ROMs use a newer Bluetooth stack, so those ROMs seem to have better BT compatibility. Try whatever BT device you're attempting to use in CM7 and see if it works. If it doesn't it's the BT stack that's included in AOSP ROMs that's causing your issues.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Thanks, jon - you're absolutely right.

IF YOU USE THE MIUI GALLERY APPLICATION TO UPLOAD YOUR PHOTOS, THERE IS A HIGH PROBABILITY THAT THEY'LL BE PERMANENTLY DELETED FROM YOUR SDCARD. That said, use QuickPic to upload your photos, and they won't be lost. You can still view photos using MIUI's gallery without risk, just don't upload/share photos with it.

This is an upstream MIUI problem straight from China. All the MIUI variants will produce the same problem, so just be careful.

you can also write the ftp addres that you get from phone on you browser and acces all the files on sdcard.

Ok, just tested it on my bt dongle (which is older than dirt, by the way) and it was able to connect using bt file explorer. But Tun4 did mention something about the bt stack on aosp being outdated. Perhaps there's a way to pull config files from a sense Rom and patch them in to an aosp to get it working? I'll play with a sense Rom tonight at work and see if i can find anything.

Switching to this ROM from Virtuous Affinity which was pretty nice 3.5 ROM.

This ROM however is light lightening in comparison.

Couple of things I miss from the start are the live weather wallpaper and sense clock thing.

Is there anything similar available?

Really like quickpic BTW good gallery app.

Any other cool things I should know?

Will report on battery comparison later.

thanks, i'll let you know what happens.

ok so i'm back up. just tried sliding that slider down. when i got it to 0, i went back to "filter by folder" and now i have 4 folders available to choose from, but still not the folder that has all my mp3s. so weird.

A few times I've had a problem with receiving calls. Tried searching the thread but didn't find anything similar.

When the phone rings I get the 'Slide to unlock' screen but it freezes and I am unable to answer the call.

Also, I can't make it use a song for my ringtone. It just keeps ringing with the default ringtone even though ringtone settings show the song I want.

Other than that I love this ROM! Incredibly fast and fluent :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
install oc beater and increase sleep value, and maybe increase voltages
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] whpsnp:
Could you explain how that will help? Thanks :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
no problems.

Okay so first of all the kernel is already undervolted. Undervolting speaks for itself, it uses a lower voltage from the lower to higher end frequencies of your cpu. The reason you may be getting freezes when you receive a call is because the voltage is too low, or your sleep profile frequency is too low. Having a low frequency for sleep profile means your phone may take longer to wake up because it is operation at a slower speed. by increasing the frequency using the oc/uv beater2 this may solve the problem of laggy lockscreen when receiving a call.

Sorry if i confused you my explanation is a little shotty but i tried :p
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] whpsnp:
Thanks for the explanation!

However, I think it might be something else. The last time it happened I was doing something in settings when the phone rang so the screen was already on.

Luckily it has only happened a couple of times so far - not every time it rings. EDIT: I should probably specify that the screen didn't unfreeze until the phone stopped ringing.

And still no luck on custom ringtones :confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
I see.. I haven't come across this yet, I will look further into it tomorrow for you.

For ringtones try use ringdroid free from market ;)

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kingston73:
To change the ringtone you need to go into your Themes section, under "customize" at or near the bottom of the list there's an option to change sounds. I found that by accident, I don't know if that's a bug or meant to be like that. I don't currently have Miui running so I can't be more specific in the steps, but I had that problem and the answer is a few pages back in this thread.

EDIT: here's the full conversation I had about the ringtone:

haven't tried setting personal tones, but I'll give that a shot. You can disable boot audio in menu, settings, personal, themes, customize then at the bottom of the menu is a setting to disable it, in case you still needed an answer to that

adb shell chmod 000 /data/data/$b/app_plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/.macromedia/Flash_Player/config.data

Or you may have to edit the config file so the frame rate isn't above 17.

is there a file that can be edited to lower the headset volume further?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rezapatel:
V6 is probably the best mem management tweak out there. My personal experience with it is always fantastic on every phone.

With a good 18 to 20 background apps running, it shows a 60 to 80 mb free, although if you close all running apps with a task manager, it successfully reclaims 130 to 150 mb, even after 2 days of no restart. And the best part is, it never let's you feel the lag on the phone, phones snappy all along, even during the low mem times.
