[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lesdense:
I can't comment on benchmark performance but I'll say that, after using and really liking variations of Cyanogenmod (CM7.01, CM7.03, CM7.1RC and various nightlies) I'm almost sad to report how much better looking and smooth operating MIUI has been for me lately. The Nook port of MIUI automatically sizes icons in a visually appealing way, I have never had one single problem with Market (not with access, not with missing apps, not where I have to fiddle around with density settings) and it delivers an overall responsive performance. No problem reestablishing wireless after sleep, no problem syncing after sleep. I had some freezing problems with my Nook but I had those when I ran CM too. I believe my freezing problems stemmed from Beautiful Widgets as I haven't had them since uninstalling it. I really admire the work that Cyanogenmod does but I want to give my Nook the best chance to work fully and flawlessly and right now that's MIUI for me.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daners85glacier:
MIUI, although based off CM7, is very lightweight. It is meant to run fluidly and smoothly, taking up as few system resources as possible. It makes for great battery life.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] votinh:
I have heard about MIUI for a while but never give it a try. I got CM7 on eMMC, does MIUI offers installing and running off the uSD?

If so, can some MIUI users pls give me the link to the file?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dormido:
I love the undertones of unbridled hate for MIUI... I mean, CM7 is nice and all -- without it, there would be no MIUI -- but it is not the end all, be all Android ROM. Each one almost explicitly caters to a different subset of Android users and let's be honest here, we all know which way we lean...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr4nk1yn:
I tested today, partially. I only used Antutu.

I benched at 1.2ghz and 1.3ghz. I took photos of the results.

bottom line: MiUi was the old install, no wipe, gun bros and apps in the background, using built in app killer betwee tests, 2600 at 1.2 and 2700 at 1.3.

CMn211, with "bloat" removed, only gapps and Antutu installed, rebooted between tests, near the same results.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markusrow:
I am using MIUI, and wondering what I am missing by not trying CM7.

Can you share what you think are the "CM7 Nook Friendly features"?

Only two apps NOT working on MIUI :- (Now both resolved)

Samba

, which exposes the SDHC card to my PC's on my home network. (however apparently this does not work on CM7 either) It complains that it cannot gain access to the shell. (Downgrade Busybox one version, Set up Samba, use once and upgrade Busybox again)

BirdieSync

Syncs with Mozilla Thunderbird (this problem may be a resolvable setup issue) (Forgot to activate on PC as separate device)

Apps working on MIUI :-

Market | GAPS | Twitter | B&N Nook | Titanium Backup | Cozi | Swype | Overlook Fing | Set CPU | Swype Keyboard | QuickPic | Nook Tweaks | Roboform | Rom Manager | DropBox | Google Books | Astro File Mgr | Google Maps.

Have you found a good Notification-bar at the bootom of the screen; to replace the Nook Notification-bar (at least that is what I thing it is called)? (zMooth is very good 1st step)

Credit definitely goes to CyanogenMod for making it possible !!!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr4nk1yn:
Since I posted ive become more used to button saviour, I bought it before cm had tablet tweaks.

my problem is due to the 180 screen density. at 160 all apps show as compatible in the market.

so I work around using Amazon store and changing the dpi, manually, for certain apps. maps for example are not compatible.

still wondering why MiUi is so much smoother. the new stable and nightly are even worst video performance wise than the old er nightlies.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BethyM:
I've tried both and can't speak to benchmarks but the one persistent thing I didn't care for in Miui was the lack of app drawer. I didn't care for every application having an icon on a homescreen. I think I've just become use to the drawer so much that the Miui seemed cluttered.

Would love to hear others opinions and/or work arounds for the missing app drawer.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majorpay:
That's border-lining on the IOS philosophy of stuffing screens with icons. I'm not a fan either. The main thing that keeps me from switching, however, is that I want to use it in landscape mode. Tablets are meant to be used landscape primarily. Readers are not, but the whole purpose of me going through the trouble of modding my Nook is to make it less like a reader and more like a tablet...

---------- Post added at 02:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:15 PM ----------

I.E.: Watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xOvTnNsmEc

Everything runs much smoother than in CM 7 nightlies, BUT, look how many times the individual has to flip the device to run any of their apps.

That's not right.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majorpay:
Yeah, I guess I never realized the launcher in Miui was replaceable. I loaded up VTL launcher, and it's running great! Very smooth and very stylish in all the menu systems! Android should take a chapter on design from these guys...

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Locobato:
I have been searching through the forums and have been able to find answers to a few of my questions. However I have been away so long and previous phone MT3G was so much easier to work with than the SGS4G I'm a little lost on some of the jargon.

I managed to get the amazing Bionix frost rom installed and working. Here is my question.

I was able to get CWM on my phone to flash the rom, now when I boot to recovery I am getting the stock recovery screen but if I select reinstall packages I get the CWM Recovery v3.0.2.8. On my MT3G when I booted into recovery the CWM screen was the first thing I saw, I just want to confirm that this is the normal and or correct method to access CWM on my SG4G.

thanks in advance for your responses.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jigglynuts:
flash dr honks kernel. that will make sure everything is correct with CWM. that should fix any issues you are having. If you have any questions let me know. Its not too bad. I think its easier using ODIN but you can do it either way.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
That is the normal process for bionix. It uses an older cwm stock. Search for the Bali 3.3UV kernel. Once you flash that, you will go straight to cwm. plus other stuff. Read his op. Once you undervolt on frost...omg. That battery life is out of control
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Click on the Bali + CWM link in my signature. You might as well start learning how to use Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
Glad to know you started some reading on your own! FBis251's Odin Bali 3.3 makes flashing Froyo so much easier.

Here's five of the most valuable things I've learned so far:

1) Odin is your friend.

2) Losing your soft brick virginity isn't a bad thing. QQ if it's a hard brick though. Nothing in this forum would really give you a hard brick though.

3) The Bible is quite holy. Don't read it and you'll get some sort of punishment from the community.

4) Reading is fundamental.

5) The developers are awesome!

Not in any specific order. XD

You should try out the GB ROMs here once you get more comfortable flashing on this phone. They're crazy smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Locobato:
Thanks all.

I have been going through the "Bible" each visit to the site. That's where I was able to figure out how to get the Bionix Frost rom working on my phone. And because I missed a few steps like making sure the permissions were correct before flashing I experienced my first soft brick. Which took another 3hrs of reading and playing with Odin to get fixed. But that's what I love about this site. Everyone is so knowledgeable and willing to help. It was't to hard to find out where I messed up and how to fix it. I appreciate all the help, I will start with FB's Bali+CWM upgrade and then I'm hoping to flash Valhalla. The rom looks amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Locobato:
Thanks again FB, just followed your guide and now am enjoying the red CWM. Quick question, with this setup I can now flash any FROYO roms directly from CWM correct? The GB roms however like Valhalla will require the GB bootloaders.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Meddlemaker:
So I've looked around and haven't been able to figure this one out.

Basically, I flashed the new ICBINB ROM last night, which looks pretty good so far, but I *hate* the keyboard. I actually prefer the old 3X4 keypad with T9.

Is there any way to get the old Samsung keyboard back?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
You could try ripping it out if a stock ROM. I'm not sure what it would be called though.

I'm curious, why don't you like a qwerty keyboard? It makes texting a whole lot more efficient than the 3x4 keypads.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Meddlemaker:
Yeah I am not sure how to pull the stock keyboard out of a stock rom. Anyone have ideas?

I find the 3x4 much faster and I make many more mistakes on the qwerty pad.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
The keyboard actually is stock the one your thinkin of is swype
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
just about say that too
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Meddlemaker:
Ah, ok. Didn't know that. But back to my question -- is there any way for me to install the old keyboard so I can set up 3X4 keypad or am I screwed?

It's almost a dealbreaker for an otherwise great looking ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bassmanjames:
http://beta.Swype.com
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
I don't think Swype BETA has the 3x4 keypad. I think that's only available in the stock Swype. Try ripping it out of one of the Froyo ROMs or the older GB ROMs. Those should probably have the old Swype.
[GT540 Optimus General] sponky514:
Hi, all, well this question is kind of dumb, but i have been searching on the phone how i can add more screens, I saw a video were you can choose up to 7 screen to put all the shortcuts, or widgets, but i cant find this option, I have the Lg gt540 with Gingerbread 2.3.5.

Can someone please help out? o let me know if this option is available in this rom?

Thanks in advance!!!

[GT540 Optimus General] Banex:
Speaking of launchers... which one do you rec. ?

Is it GO the best option with minimum usage of memory, etc... ?
[GT540 Optimus General] androidboss7:
all launchers mostly use about 7-15mb of ram!
[GT540 Optimus General] Rne800:
I choose GO because it offers you more control, and a couple of extra functions, like uninstalling apps through the app drawer, a recent app tab, a task killer tab, and a decent amount of effects, and in my opinion it runs smoother than other launchers.
[GT540 Optimus General] bataya:
LauncherPro Plus, fast and smooth... use 6-8MB of ram.

Hi my laptop died on me, so ive just bought a new one, I have the problem now of having no files on my laptop whatsoever, and a phone full of music, photos videos contacts etc that was synced with my old laptop.

Can i sync my phone now so that all the data on my phone goes on to my laptop, so it can just be updated via HTC Sync, because as soon as i sync it now, i shall lose everything of my phone then i shall be well and truly stuck!

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Binkie88:
If you change the setup from htc sync, you can choose that only the files from your phone get synced to the computer.

Or you can choose disk drive and do it manually.
[HTC Sensation] Harmani:
Why not attaching the device as a disk drive and copy the data to your laptop using windows(?) explorer?

Contacts are synced with your gmail account, which in it's turn can sync with pretty much any other CM software.
[HTC Sensation] gtcalder:
Hi thanks for the help, all sorted now. Wasnt sure how to change sync settings in order to sync from phone to pc though?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riskaa:
HI all.

I have Simply Honey 2.8 Rom on my phone and have had this for the last few months.

I wanted to do a hard reset (since my phone seems to be laggy and force closing more often)

When the phone boots up after a hard reset, will it boot up with the custom ROM or with stock?

Is there anything else i need to make sure to do, before i hard reset?

Thanks so much,

riskaa
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaintfm:
Referring to your use of the phrase "hard reset", in the words of Inigo Montoya, "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

If what you meant is a factory reset, then the answer is it'll boot up with your custom ROM. If you really mean "hard reset", then uh... turn your phone back on and everything will be as it was when you turned it off.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riskaa:
I did mean factory reset - thank you.

Good to know it will boot up with my custom ROM. That's what I was hoping.

Thank you,
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treater:
When is it recommendet to do an factory reset after updating?

If I even do an update for example from V54 to V54 do you think I should do an factory reset anyway?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
A factory reset is usually necessary when flashing a new rom (Say Stock 2.1 > Simply Honey). However, if you're only updating a rom (Say Simply Honey v2.7 > Simply Honey v2.8) then you don't have to do a factory reset.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhu1:
Well their is no way to legally replace it until it just pops out or bursts out automatically and Samsung fixes it under warranty or replaces your phone with a new one. But I have a method which I read in an old article on net, its a cheap method but it works for me- you can just cut out a square piece from the protection cover which comes on top of your sgs when you buy it, just cut it to fit on top of your camera lens, make sure you haven't had any finger marks on the back side and then just apply it, you can clean the outer side with any cloth, if you keep the outer side clean and if you have applied it when back side was clean then camera will show no reduced quality image and it will be protected from scratches.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M86:
Hey everyone, awhile back I ran CM7 (2.3.3) on my nexus and whenever I used the bass amplifier with the "equalizer" app in the market, it made it feel as though I was in a movie room. I mean it was surround sound!

I've upgraded to MIUI and unfortunately I don't get that same sound output. The bass sounds sound smooth, rather it sounds like someone is banging the music playing.

I was wondering if there's anyway besides going back to CM7 and 2.3.3. that I could get that surround sound feeling back.

Thanks in advance guys!

I wish it was that easy. You see I have a kernel flashed, but the output does not sound the same. I have Beats by Dre headphones, and I can significantly remember the richness of the bass compared to the kernel im using now.

[Acer Iconia A500] Rainbowbright081:
So yesterday I decided I was going to play around with the different roms like I do my phone w/ my tablet.. Bad idea. The same usual steps to backing up and restoring are supposed to be the same. maybe not so much.

I decided to try out the new Revolution theme by thor, so i made a backup of where i was at before the wipe and subsequent install. Install went on without any issue, I played with it for a while, decided I wanted to go back to my latest backup. Performed the restore and went to bed.

When I went back to the tablet it had successfully rebooted with all my prior settings in place. Except one thing. Superuser wont work, and I cant download the updater fix in the market. So my rooted device is now unrooted with Taboony 2.1b rom. None of the apps we are all accustomed to using will work without superuser working.

Has anyone experienced this, is there a fix I just havent seen? I have searched and searched and searched. Well versed in google :)
[Acer Iconia A500] shaun298:
This happans to me on no matter what rom I use, just restore your backup using cwm and say good by to root.
[Acer Iconia A500] JdgM3NT4L:
I just finished getting my tab back in shape after much the same thing. What worked for me was to get into cwm, then clear cache and delvic cache. Re-installed the rom (ezterry's rooted stock in my case) and I am good to go. I did not clear data. Hope that this helps.
[Acer Iconia A500] shaun298:
With reflash of rom you will have root again, but do a full backup of your rom using cwm and then restore your backup and you will once again be left without root.
[Acer Iconia A500] Rainbowbright081:
The fix I got was, i got into cwm and flashed the new mix rom and viola, everything works as it should lol
[Acer Iconia A500] Achristocat:
There have been issues with SU in Taboonay. Happens after a backup / restore. I had the same thing.

For a more complete solution check the thread on Taboonay / DEV in the forum, but the short answerthat worked for me with Taboonay is : uninstall SetCPU, Reflash 2.1, reboot, reflash 2.1b. this worked for me...

Good luck!

[HTC Sensation] taxus13:
Hi,

in the last week I tried several ROMs, including Sensation XE ROMs (overclocked CPU).

Then I switched back to LeeDroiD - and had some reboots (with recommended radio).

After that I tried CM7 - again random reboots.

Now I am using Sensation Stock 2.08.401.1 with newest XE radio. After the first boot I got some messages (sms) and the phone switches off an when I turn it on to type the PIN, it is off again (sometimes).

Today, 24 hours later (without any bootloop/shutdown), I updated to the version with APM and I sent some messages - again shutdown (=>bootloop), had to remove battery again. So I booted again and everything is running stable, I am "chatting" with my brother without any issue.

Is my device broken or something? Quadrant and Linpack are running stable, but is there an issue with the radio?

Edit: Of course I have checked MD5s before flashing radio(s)/ROM(s)
