Problems with Bluetooth car kit [SOLVED]

Hi guys & gals,

I have searched around and found lots of problems, but no solutions. I am running the latest (1.12.16) MIUI on my Desire S, but cannot get it to pair to my car kit. It starts the connection, asks for the password, tells me it has paired, then drops out and just asks for the password again.

Any ideas as this is essential for me to stick with MIUI as I spend half my life on the road.

Cheers.

Update:

On advice from Zeekiz, I gave the latest version of Galnet MIUI a try instead. For some reason this worked perfectly - Bluetooth just picked up with no problems. I reburnt the original MIUI just to confirm and there definitely seems to be a bug with it.
[HTC Desire S] f0xy:
Not been around for abit,

I have just flashed latest MIUI, is there a fix for vibrate on keyboard yet?

Regards
[HTC Desire S] Kolo39:
You can install another keyboard from the market.

I think this should work ;)
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
If I remember right hapatic feedback was disabled due to comparability issues. Could be wrong in saying this though, so take it with a pinch of salt.
[HTC Desire S] Forwox:
Seems like everything works fine. But I am facing problem - locking phone and then unlocking (pressing power button) to slide to unlock it goes into unlock screen very slow and frezes there for at least 5 seconds, then you can unlock normally. Why so??
[HTC Desire S] mouzzza:
Did you change the theme, kernel or something else after flashing MIUI?

I was using MIUI for a half year, changed on CM7.1 last two weeks, so i can't say if this is a bug in latest version, but i for myself never had such a problem on MIUI!

PS: v2.2.10 is out now, try it!
[HTC Desire S] Forwox:
Well, after moving from Desire to Desire S I backed up my old whole theme, so maybe that's the problem? Tried setting up Widgetlocker and happens the same. Kernel or anything else is untouched after flashing MIUI. But the problem still appears and very often, really annoying actually.
[HTC Desire S] mouzzza:
Are you using the same SD-card as on Desire? That could be a problem in my eyes, because of different settings saved on MIUI-folder!
[HTC Desire S] Forwox:
Well, actually I am using another SD-card on new Desire S, the old one I sold together with phone. Okay, I hav reconfigured theme settings and everything seems fine so far. Tnq.

But just noticed another problem with MIUI on Desire S, as one member posted before, but nobody made attention:

+

Stock Android on Desire S gave us wonderful video recording sound quality (src), but now on MIUI sound is terrible again... :(
[HTC Desire S] mouzzza:
Nice to hear that the theme is working now!

Sry, i can't give any iinformation about video-recording. I still haven't used it on my DesireS:rolleyes:
[HTC Desire S] Forwox:
mouzzza, I am coming back once again with lockscreen freezes. Well, it is a little bit strange, but freezing is back again and happens only after long stay outside. It's pretty cold here in Latvia, about -20°c, so maybe low temperatures makes some affect on hardware+software behaviour? :confused:
[HTC Desire S] mouzzza:
oh yeah you are damned right...that will be the problem!

I read an article last week, where a finnish magazine had tested 15 smartphones in cold environment!

The DesireS haven't been tested, but you can see that most smartphones aren't working well anymore on fu..ing cold temperature!

An english article based on the finnish, because you may will not be able reading suomi:D

Original article

Also here in Austria we have -15°C and less, but I always have it in my pocket so I haven't much problems.

PS:

Well, thinking back a bit more, I remember that my device was turning off 3 times yesterday when I was outside. I thougt because of the cover, but it never turned off when I was inside!
[HTC Desire S] Forwox:
Hey!

My HTC Desire S is running, freezing awfully being outside even at -5°c for hour or two. MIUI lockscreen beams slowly on, freezes for few seconds, then runs normally. When calling, screen goes white at first, then shows up calling display and sometimes freezes process "android.process", so phone simply shuts down sim hard (I have to enter pin and it relocates zone again...). Oh gooosh! :(
[HTC Desire S] heno.sthlm:
Hi,

I have a strange problem with my FM radio, when chancing the volume inside the FM radio app everything works fine but if i try to change the volume when the app is not in front i just get a static sound and the FM radio crashes.

Also if someone calls me the FM radio crashes and i need to reboot the phone to get things running again.

one thing i notice is when inside the FM app and chancing the volume it say's i'm chancing the headphones volume but if i do it from the home screen it say's i'm chancing the ringtone volume.

maybe it's just a case of mapping the volume buttons to the right function.

any ideas ? i tried different kernels (like tiamat) and different radio's but i still get the same problem!

anyone had similar problems ? or know of a good fix for this?

cheers

heno
[HTC Desire S] Sick1:
Hmm, anyone know whats the latest build/latest stable build of Miui gingerbread and where to get it? been searching miui.us and seems that everyones just using v4 ics... As it still seems little unstable accorsing to reviews and with "unofficial" kernel. thanks!
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
MIUI GB is discontinued.......
[HTC Desire S] Sick1:
There isnt any "desire s Miui GB Official FinalStableBestVersionHardcoreRom"? or should i just go with proxusers v4 ics port? thanks for your reply shrome!
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
ICS is almost as stable as GB, plus tons of more features so i reccomend ICS.
[HTC Desire S] monkey21stc:
Could it be related to bandwidth saving mode? Try clearing cache...
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
I seem to have only the auto brightness problem. Not sure about keyboard as i'm using swiftkey. Everything else is ok.
[HTC Desire S] florek235:
Hi is there a recommended radio. I use 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M. My battery life is about 2,5 day with average use of data network, mainly wifi - about 30% of day, and also i don't face of to sound problems on stock superkid kernel.

is that good battery life - i'm little bit confused compare to VU roms where i gat the best score 4days (every data off - I'm not gaming person also :P )
[HTC Desire S] maniacscorpio:
i am on unlimited free use plan. already cleaned cache ... solution yet to find
[HTC Desire S] monkey21stc:
No, I meant under browser settings, there is a bandwidth saving mode switch perhaps you can try toggling it to see if it helps? Sorry if I couldn't help much...
[HTC Desire S] e2zippo:
One issue I had with 1.9.2 was that "prefixer" a third party app that adds a prefix before a number based on rules didn't work, nothing happened.

The developer had a fix that worked in previous versions and I seem to recall it worked for me in 1.7.29 and maybe even 1.7.22.

The setting was

"Settings>Common>Calls Settings> and towards the end you'll see "Third Party Access" enable this all will be well"

I think that setting is broken as prefixer doesn't work for me.
[HTC Desire S] t-ryder:
I don't know if this is a MIUI bug or porting or what else, but when taking a photo there is meant to be a moving zoom minimizing animation (to the menu bar) of the taken photo. This animation takes a blink of an eye and causes very bad screen output: distortion, half of the screen grey and faulty colored lines. For a half second I thought my screen says good bye.

MIUI Saga 1.9.2

tiamat 1.1.2

stock radio
[HTC Desire S] gordonendersby:
Installed this as my first rom replacement and very impressed.

Had the call sound problem, seems to happen if you have been playing with volume settings and headphones. Applied the fix and seems ok now.

Haptic on std keyboard would be nice to have back.

Screen auto brightness is an irritation but not a show stopper.

Looks good and easy to use once I got used to the launcher and organised all my icons and widgets.

It seems faster, battery and wifi are better.

Well done to the developers

Gordon
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Check first post for keyboard haptic feedback. I've provided a fix.
[HTC Desire S] t-ryder:
After setting configurations for the build in SMS app my Saga freezes totally. Had to shut down pressing all buttons. After a reboot it works again. Tough crash. Such bugs appear every time a few days after flashing.
[HTC Desire S] gordonendersby:
Worked a charm.

Thanks

Gordon
[HTC Desire S] Tone-Fu:
I've had real problems with the screen dying on its arse with this version.

One minute it's fine, auto brightness is enabled, next minute it dims, sometimes to the point where I can't even see anything. If I am able to see anything I have to go back in, re-tick automatic brightness and it brightens up enough to use again.

Another problem I had was with calls connecting but noone can hear my voice.

I formatted, re-installed and the problems were still present.

Everything else is great though, thanks! =D
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Why don't you read first post ?
[HTC Desire S] sayeed91:
Does anyone reckon there will be better performance in the web browser its kinda slow. Not as fast as the original sense one
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
The next release 1.9.9 will have a faster browser - 30% faster to be more accurate. Why don't you try Dolphin Mini ? It's faster than anything else out there.
[HTC Desire S] Cateye:
Noob question.. Should i apply these patches from Hboot ???
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
No, no. Only from recovery. Where you flashed the ROM.
[HTC Desire S] Cateye:
Thanks appreciate your swift response

EDIT : No luck with voice... still facing same issue
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
What issues are you facing ? No voice on audio call or ? If it's that problem, then try this kernel also http://tiamat-dev.com/tiamat_saga/ . Keep in mind that this kernel boosts audio volume and you have to bring it down to 50-70% in order to work correctly.
[HTC Desire S] Cateye:
Which one ???

Tiamat_Saga-v1.1.2

Tiamat_Saga-v1.1.1

Tiamat_Saga-v1.1.0

Tiamat_Saga-v1.0.4

Tiamat_Saga-v1.0.4.1
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
The latest one: Tiamat_Saga-v1.1.2
[HTC Desire S] fosco_:
No wifi tethering in MIUI 1.9.2, just usb but not wifi
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
Yep, confirmed, seems a rom issue and not kernel one
[HTC Desire S] t-ryder:
There's no CDMA or GSM for the Saga, so I could just use any Saga Radio? Thought about flashing, though the stock Radio works quite ok for me.

Just wondering because my location is germany.

Would you recommend this one?
[HTC Desire S] fosco_:
I use that with no problem at all.
[HTC Desire S] bail.de:
me too, works fine
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
New version is up. You can update OTA, or download it from miui.us. Just flash it over, don't wipe anything.

Currently no bugs reported, if you experience something unpleasant, please report here.

P.S: Later I'll have a little surprise for MIUI users.
[HTC Desire S] X10Zelda:
I guess it´s a minor thing but I discovered that the Emoji-smileys in Go SMS are blurry. They were good when I had 1.8.2...:confused:
[HTC Desire S] Adidas108:
lol :D

with clean install says that rom is not rooted :D
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Oh, forgot to tell you this. They updated to latest SuperUser.

Open the app, click menu button, click settings and then check ROOT Permission.

That's all.
[HTC Desire S] florek235:
Bug: Can't set personalised ring tones for different contacts always default
[HTC Desire S] Adidas108:
yes figured out but thx for info

btw its very strange that there is no option for auto arrange icons..that sux big time..
[HTC Desire S] tcchuin:
i cannot format my scard properly on 1.9.9 rom.
[HTC Desire S] Fz.hary:
this miui 1.9.9 will be perfect if have default led notification like in stock rom :)
[HTC Desire S] e2zippo:
I have constant reboots with 1.9.9.

I made a clean install from scratch, anyone know what's up?
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
It reboots even with screen off right ? I experienced this too, thought I had a hardware problem.
[HTC Desire S] e2zippo:
That's right, even with screen off it reboots. Really hope there's a fix for this.
[HTC Desire S] n1c00_:
Hi, experiencing delay when answer calls. Is there a fix? I'm on 1.9.9 with tiamat 1.1.2.
[HTC Desire S] nedd1:
My calendar has chinese characters. I think someone had this before but can't find the solution
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Currently no fix. It's a MIUI bug unfortunatelly, will report it.

As for the chinese characters it's a translation problem from MIUI.us side. Does anyone experience this also ? If it will be confirmed, will be reported also.
[HTC Desire S] petreski:
battery uptime

How I can view, uptime on battery (not after reboot but since last charge) ?
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Settings -> System -> Battery and check Monitor Usage, then you can see.
[HTC Desire S] petreski:
Thanks bioan,

But can you tell me, why this is not checked by default ?

More battery consumption or ?

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
It could consume a little more battery, but nothing more. I don't know why it isn't on by default. MIUI developers may have or may not have a reason for this thing.
[HTC Desire S] zyotty:
why does the music app that comes with MIUI still downloading album art even when i set auto download album art to off?
[HTC Desire S] bail.de:
mmh i turned it off as well but it never tried to download any art... maybe because i downloaded all album art manually on my pc before i transfered my music to the sd card...

but my proximity sensor goes kind of crazy since yesterday... screen turns black immediately after pulling the bar down to answer the call and stays black the whole phone call until the other person hangs up...
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Please check first post before reporting an issue. Thank you guys !
[HTC Desire S] tuguilucian:
when adding contact attachments to sms, all contacts are displayed, not the one which i can see in dialer. if this is supposed to work, at least an option to filter them :)

thanks, great rom very nice tweaks
[HTC Desire S] enr88:
translate miui

Hi guys, I need to translate the MIUI rom in italian, I tried to use the language pack for desire HD, everything works except the camera, so I tried to delete the language packs miuicamera.apk, the result is the same ... Some suggestion??
[HTC Desire S] tuguilucian:
hi, i've flashed tiamat 1.1.2, you were saying that i have to adjust some settings? how?
[HTC Desire S] florek235:
Dear SuperKid pleas take in mind.
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Get no frills from Market, change governor to smartass and adjust frequency to your own needs.

@enr88 - I will take a look when I get home.
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
Will check that, i been wondering if you guys really want the tweeter,facebook and google+ apps xD , but well, i will leave them for now
[HTC Desire S] Jan_Joris:
Thx for this!
[HTC Desire S] elburna:
Rather not. Everybody can download them on their own in my opinion. Less clutter is always better :D

...via Tapatalk
[HTC Desire S] JackyJack:
Well, actually I just delete the apks from the zip you provide each week, so so as you wish ;)
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
m.. i will need more opinions, i want less apps, so it will be smaller and faster to download
[HTC Desire S] bail.de:
-no search suggestions in miui search

i deselected all searchable items except web, but i get no suggestions.

-keyboard doesn't automatically pop up when opening miui search with search soft-button

i use htc_ime keyboard. strangely the keyboard pops up after i swipe to the right (task manager) and then back to search.
[HTC Desire S] xxmarkosxx:
please remove them.It's better to be able to download these apps,than have them in your phone and cannot uninstall.Also i don't think miui.us is required
[HTC Desire S] gfandrea:
I think is better to remove all the app that can be downloaded from the market...

So we can have more choices.
[HTC Desire S] alain.duchateau:
Same advice : if an app is available on the market, don't integrate in the rom :-) many thx for you work : brillant !
[HTC Desire S] veef13:
+1 for no Google + etc :)
[HTC Desire S] sayeed91:
does anyone else experience this issue? after ive finished recording a video in potrait mode and then i play it, it plays in landscape leave big black bars on each side of the screen i wish it would just play in potrait mode.
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
I think you can remove:

Facebook

Twitter

Google+

Google Maps

Google Talk

Google Voice
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
Ah yes forgot about Rom Manager. :D And Youtube.
[HTC Desire S] lynxnoon:
@superkid

pls can u consider adding the INTERNET PASS-THROUGH option( i.e using a PC internet on phone via USB) when it's possible?

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] bail.de:
no one else has this issue? would be great if this getting fixed, cause installing the google search and making it a system app needs to be done after every update unfortunately...
[HTC Desire S] alain.duchateau:
Yess ! :-) excellent for space consuming :-)
[HTC Desire S] nedd1:
I have the same issue with keyboard not popping up, I use swype.
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Doesn't it pop when you click on text field ?
[HTC Desire S] nedd1:
Yes it does. not really a bug, just an annoyance. On the google search it pops up automatically.
[HTC Desire S] JackyJack:
This happened to me 3 times now since 1.9.9 :

After using the "Navigation" part from the Google Maps application (works quite well), when arrived at destination and after the app is closed, I can't get data connection anymore, from no app, and I had to restart the phone to fix this.

Anyone had something similar ?
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
:O I never tried that, seems a really weird bug!
[HTC Desire S] Andy`:
I've had this bug too, even though 3G/H symbol shows & have full signal yet nothing seems to loads, always returns error saying network connection.

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] enr88:
can I increase the signal reception wi-fi, with this rom and in general with our desire s?
[HTC Desire S] JackyJack:
Was it after using the Navigation application ?
[HTC Desire S] Andy`:
Yeah.

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] nedd1:
Someone mentioned this on the cm7 rom as well and I have spotted it on this rom as well:

The screen flashes sometimes when the phone is locked. I notice it at night when the phone is beside the bed and I turn.

Anyone else see this happening?
[HTC Desire S] tcchuin:
There's some app making the phone doesn't go onto sleep properly on your phone
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
Err... i updated to 1.9.16 with Updater and suddenly Compass and AIC Bootfix is gone. :confused:
[HTC Desire S] veef13:
Seem to have lost root :(
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
It's exactly the same issue as in 1.9.9. In fact, it's not an issue, it's a feature provided by the new SuperUser. Open SuperUser, press menu button, click on setting and then set Root Permission to ON.

As for the Compas and Aic Bootfix (don't know what app is that) I don't know what happened to you. I've flashed it over and everything is ok.

So no bugs to report yet.
[HTC Desire S] veef13:
Thx. I have superuser, if I open it, pressing menu does nothing, clicking settings on top bar has no root option. I try and update binary, and says there's an update, but that's blocked as no root. Bit stuck where to go now
[HTC Desire S] Fz.hary:
1.9.16

+1 to no compass app.

download facebook for android in market, and give force close every time...

led indicator give more longer blinking than previous version...

edit : facebook app force close, solved. just wipe facebook data with titanium backup
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Did you do a clean install or a upgrade ? If you upgraded, how did you do it ? OTA, flash it over, cache clean ?
[HTC Desire S] veef13:
100% clean install. Fresh formatted SD card with just miui file on it, format system, cache, data, wipe data/system, wipe dalvik, installed, reboot, setup, reboot...
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
The question is also available for Fz.hary.

@veef13 - Search for SuperUser in Market and update it. Something is really weird. It's working for all of us.
[HTC Desire S] veef13:
That's how I got superuser, wasn't installed by default, same for alot of apps...

By the way, thanks for the help
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
It's pretty strange. I've upgraded from 1.9.9 and didn't lost anything.

Please tell me which apps didn't install so I can report the issues.
[HTC Desire S] veef13:
Su, Facebook, twitter, Google+ but not sure if this version had these removed?

Maybe a bad flash, can try again tomorrow
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Nope, I see them in data/app folder. They should have installed correctly. Could you please try my method ?

Flash this first: http://bitly.com/p1VLb7 and then flash MIUI. After booting MIUI, restart the phone and then tell me if everything is installed.
[HTC Desire S] mixalakis32:
+1

plus maps were missing, but installed everything from market.

had formated /wiped everything before flashing.
[HTC Desire S] Fz.hary:
i'm upgrade it from 1.9.9, download rom via pc, and then transfer it to my sdcard. wipe cache and flash it through cwm.

i'm do this since miui 1.7.x

do you really have compass app in 1.9.16??

never use that compass app, but that is true in this new version its removed.

list of removed app in this version

-facebook

-compass

-twitter

-maps, navigation

sorry for bad english :)
[HTC Desire S] bioan:
Ok guys, so this is definetly a bug. All the apps you told me where moved to /data/apps in this release so you can easily remove them.

This will be fixed in next release. As for now, dowload them from Market, or I can create a flashable zip for them. Let me know.
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
I don't have the SU issue though. Not sure what AIC Bootfix does but it's gone as well.

Also, i thought Superkid moved the apps to data folder on purpose so that we can remove them easily.
[HTC Desire S] veef13:
trying this now, same process as before to rule out sys issues, fresh formatted and partitioned sd, wipe and format everything, twice lol, then will try your wipe ext4 file and have a fresh dl of the newest miui... will report back within 90 mins

thanks again for support

edit: right, root is back and i have su, but as mentioned no facebook etc, but you have already noted that as a bug :)
[HTC Desire S] JackyJack:
I confirm, aicbootfix.apk is not present in the new release, it was there since superkid's beginning at miui.us I think, but I don't even know what it is used for...

p.s. sorry amorein, I thanked your post when trying to quote it... Hehe :)
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
damn i thanked him too.

Well, the aic is in app folder, but i am using the ace one and not the one from saga this release... need to check if that makes an issue
[HTC Desire S] sagarda7:
camera flash not working miui 1.9.16

camera flash Is not working in my desire s with miui 1.9.16. Please tell me how to fix that.
[HTC Desire S] Fz.hary:
working fine in my phone...
[HTC Desire S] amonrei:
Lol accidental thanks is ok! :D

What is aicbootfix for anyway?

I seem to have this problem with 1.9.9. Now it works again but a bit dodgy. :o

Gah forgot the reason of this post. If you have issues with photo frame not updating, just clear Gallery data in All Programs. This problems seems to happen with other phones as well as i already searched around for it.
[HTC Desire S] notilad:
No Facebook

I could download all missing apps from market except facebook. The market says that the app is not compatible with my phone. Haha.

I can live without facebook so will be waiting for the next release.

Cheers, Notilad

EDIT: After clearing Market Data, I was able to download and install facebook
[HTC Desire S] X10Zelda:
OK...found two bugs:

1) FC, when trying to change wallpaper from gallery. Always works on second

attempt.

2) Echo when talking on the phone, not for me, but for the person in the other end.

Didn´t have this problem earlier. I didn´t wipe anything before I flashed.
[HTC Desire S] sagarda7:
Thank you. it worked after clearing data of gallery and camera application.
