Can you share the modem? Couldnt find the uckh1 modem....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] invizo:
Same exact problem.

Love miui and greatly appreciate the developer's work but this latest release I think created more bugs than fixes.

Oh and the supposed working superuser a couple pages back will not install at all.

Are you coming from a froyo rom? If you were on a gb rom, you need the 2.0.1. The v8 is for those coming from froyo

Why does it have the non-MIUI Superuser on it?

I can't enable Superuser because of this. Lame.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtown:
nope had miui installed 1.10.7 but i got things back up and running now. :) on miui 1.10.14

my REC function on the phone is still greyed out even after this update? does anyone know why? does this have anything to do with the phone being locked? or is the samsung infuse (rogers?) model not capable of recording phone calls??

do any permissions need to be changed or settings that i am missing?

any suggestions or help is more than welcomed :) thanks

1st time: Update from Infused 2.2.3, clear all 3 (data,cach,cach) and install .14 zip.

2nd time: Update from Stock, clear all 3 and install .14 zip.

After 2nd fail: I 3 buttoned to recovery, cleared all 3 and installed .7. Root access was back and I used TiBu to restore.

Pretty simple stuff. I don't get why root access will not be granted with the combination of my phone and .14 build. :confused:
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LuRock:
It's the T959VUVKH1.

I don't have the link but I'm pretty sure if you google it along with modem & xda, you'll find it. It's somewhere around here in another thread from July I believe. there's a whole bunch of them listed on that thread.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] sl0v4k:
hey guys dont wanna bother but the recover recovery steps r a little vague for me. what is this update.zip file where do i get it? ive had blue recovery up until i installed the 10 14 miui. and when he says pull battery does he mean pull it when the samsung logo comes on?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MaverickCoast:
Update on losing root then regaining it

Lost root when I installed 1.10.14

Did the following and finally have root:

AT NO POINT DO A FACTORY RESET OR A DALVIK CLEAR

- Return to stock

- Root stock with SuperOneClick

- Install the basics, ie. google/market registration info, install

Titanium/Titanium Pro.

- Use Odin to install Voodoo kernal

- Go into CWM and install MIUI 1.10.7

- Check to see if you still have root by running Titanium BU.

(At some point, Superuser will appear in the TOOLS folder. Might not be

until 1.10.14 is installed) Make sure the "allow root"

is activated. I never had A problem keeping root in v1.10.7

- After installing and activating the basics, install 1.10.14

- Check TOOLS folder and check Superuser settings.

You should be rooted.

Hope this helps. I tried at least 6 or 7 different combinations and found this worked at least once. Good luck.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] the2rrell:
The update.zip is the file created by Rom Manager to get you into the GREEN CWM i think most people here already have this on there phone somewhere from prior installs. if you need the update.zip just use Rom manager to get it. then save it.

and Yes pull it when the samsung logo comes on.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sl0v4k:
thanks :) only problem i have no update.zip file anywhere on my phone. i dont even have rom manager installed never needed it
[Samsung Infuse 4G] the2rrell:
hit the market up and download it. pick I900 when asked which Mod to install. it will load up and put the Update.zip file at the root of your SD card. or you can go into a File manager Sd Card/Clockwork/Downloads/...and it should be there as well.

i personally have never lost recovery, so i dont see the need for all these steps.....but if you want to see if it works, i dont see another way of getting the update.zip then using Rom manager.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Eddie Bombay:
No issues with root on latest version.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LuRock:
Ok so my battery is lasting 10hrs. With moderate use. Anyone doing better?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] sl0v4k:
you sir r a lifesaver. been trying forever to figure this out just didnt knw wher to get update zip from :) grazie :) alls good now
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JordanElliott:
ok. im sorry to say guys. but looking at the past comments about users not losing root. it looks like its the user that did something wrong. if u follow directions to a tee you'll be fine
[Samsung Infuse 4G] the2rrell:
Ehhhhhh

ok i have Root or something like root...lol

TiBu see's root, but my Cpu programs(Pimp my Cpu and Set Cpu) were unable to gain Root access.

other programs like adfree and what not also run just fine and find root.

Sooooo, my question is why do some apps find it and other dont??
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MaverickCoast:
The install instructions on the first page, recommend that you do a factory reset and wipe dalvik cache. One or both of those

seem

to be causing the loss of root, from what I've been reading. Has that been ruled out?

Maybe the instructions need to be changed. I had a h*ll of a time getting root back

after following the instructions

. Only after I started from scratch and didn't do the factory reset and/or wipe the dalvik, did I successfully root, so I wouldn't say necessarily the users were doing something wrong.

Just sayin' :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] BravoMotorola:
Can anyone explain to me what the whole "red CWM" thing is about? I can't find anything about it and I'm doing this for a friend so I just kind of got here and know nothing about development history for this phone. So can I just root it, install rom manager off of the market and use the latest recovery (5.0.2.0) to flash this and have no issues? Thanks.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mulcahyd:
Here's what I did. I was originally on S7 gingerbread rom. I pressed power and selected recovery mode. Phone booted red cwm. I selected install zip from SD card and chose miui .14. Installed but hanged on Samsung after rebooted.

Remover battery and reinsert. Go into blue cwm. Reinstall miui. 14 again and reset. Everything running nicely. No root loss or anything. Just had 2 small soft reboots at the beginning. But afterwards it has been running fine no problems.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] g1g:
Ok i just noticed i lost recovery also but i do have root ... tried to do a manual recovery 3 finger and hangs on the samsung logo same thru cw and power so how do i get to recovery ?:confused:
[Samsung Infuse 4G] antoniopujadas:
I don't know in this version of miui but in the first version superuser sits in tools folder in home sreen
[Samsung Infuse 4G] indymx:
Same for me.. Happened with last weeks version too.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MaverickCoast:
I didn't remove the battery at all during the whole process, so maybe that plays a factor in the scheme of things!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rob1216:
Same exact thing here, have root but no recovery
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mulcahyd:
Possibly but also maybe on some versions of infuses phones the manufacture build date could also vary to peoples phones and that could also determine if you need to flash miui rom once or twice to get it working.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] g1g:
So how did you get recovery back ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] cracjackson:
There's a post on first page of thread on how to get back it works I used it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] farmercyst:
I had problems with root going from infused to the latest miui. I DID follow instructions and still did not have root. I replaced the superuser.apk in miui 1.10.14.zip with the superuser.apk in above link and reinstalled. i now have to option to turn root on and off.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] e0mandaniel:
for those having issues with losing the recovery..

download this kernel

http://www.multiupload.com/1E3AWIQYAA

and download sgs kernel flasher from the market

and then flash the community kernel from the sgs kernel flasher

thats how i fixed mine

or you can use odin and just flash an infuse kernel such as infusion GB 1.1..

if you dont want to do this just

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116251

go to this website and follow the steps to reflash back to stock

reroot your phone, and flash infused 2.2.1 or 2.1 and reflash using this method

From red recovery,

Factory reset, wipe data/dalvik cache

Flash miui

Factory reset again (this step may not be neccesary but ive always done it to b safe)

Boot up (should b stuck at samsung screen)

Pull batt, replace batt, boot back into recovery using 3 finger (power, vol up, vol down as u already know) this should put u in orange recovery

Reflash miui

Factory reset

Boot up

if you lost your root, flash the 10.7.11 version and update to 10.14.11 rom

to do this just go into recovery and wipe cache/dalvic then flash 10.14.11 (dont do full wipe data)

this will fix it
[Samsung Infuse 4G] matermine:
Where would I find the 10.7.11 version?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sl0v4k:
heres the thing when it comes to root. if ur already running MIUI then do not do factory reset. ive been trying some things and noticed that if ur running miui already and do factory reset it takes away root. why i dont really know it just does lol. so dont do it. this is my case others may or may not differ.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] matermine:
I went from Infused 1.6 to the latest MIUI and lost root. Don't know how to get it back without 10.7.11 rom, which I don't know where to get, unless I'm supposed to just get the Galaxy S version
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sl0v4k:
pm me your email ill send it to u :) but dont do factory reset.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] terra-starr:
How did you do this?

I lost root and recovery (both firsts) and get "not installed" when I try to instal the old superuser, via file explorer or root Explorer.

thanks

Great directions.

any ideas for those who lost root and recovery?

I'd prefer to avoid having to go back to stock.

thanks
[Samsung Infuse 4G] slapshot30:
I went from last version and when flashing new version, I did factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik. However, I still have root and recovery. So this is not the issue.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] LG_iiNsTiiNcT:
This thread has turned into a q&a thread for the same questions over and over lol. "I'm not being a **** sorry if it sounds that way". Okay first and foremost nobody is loosing root because for infact the ability to have this Tom or recovery you have to have root ur phone would not run. Second the recovery issue has being sollved numerous times. Please read I'm not trying to be rude but if we keep talking about issues that have being takin care of we wont get any were we need to bring up new issues that haven't being addressed. With that being said, for those who are loosing root slash recovery read threw a little then post. Like the whole root thing some don't have the app and some don't know what I'm talking about if when u flash nihilism there's a tools folder with a superuser app in it "you don't need to download one" click the menu of the app and turn root on. If you already have miui running no problems I suggest when flashing a update only wipe cache and dalvik. "This will prevent you from have to start over as if you just flashed a new rom". Second if you lost recovery follow the steps on the first page its very simple. If you want to do it the hard way flash back to stock and start over. With this being said can we please clean up this thread a little to further development. Please read if you are having trouble use the search button and if you can't find a fix for a question that being asked before pm me or Jordan or any of the devs out there. Please and thank you and once again I'm not trying to be harsh.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] e0mandaniel:
i agree with LG_iiNsTiiNcT
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mulcahyd:
I agree too. Been noticing alot of questions and answers regarding to root. Topics should be relevant towards the miui rom itself. And on how it can be better or what additional features could be added etc. Thanks.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Rico12321:
Does the torch work for anyone??
[Samsung Infuse 4G] indymx:
I followed the steps on the first post. Updated the ROM and immediately lost recovery again.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bzmotoninja83:
Well, I flashed from 9.30..... I did the full wipe, flashed and was like, why can't I enable root???

Was getting mad at my device. The I was like hmmmm, maybe ill use the "$EARCH" button. You know, instead of filling this thread with "hey, I lost..... and I don't know how to get.....", I looked for it myself. My issue was the full wipe and not just update. So, went back to 9.30, enabled root thru folder, then updated to 10.14. ..... no, with that being said, the only thing some people may notice is that there is no "enable root privileges setting" for me.

Sent from my SGH-I997 using the greatest MIUI ROM!!!!!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jerrycoffman45:
root

could this be the problem with people losing root the ones who have root downloaded before the update. and the ones who are losing root downloaded after changes where made
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lieutenantsword:
With regard to the losing recovery issue, I had the problem once.

I reflashed recovery in ROM Manager (the i9000 one) and rebooted into recovery. I got green recovery at that point. I reflashed the MIUI ROM, rebooted, pulled the battery, restarted using 3-button and got blue recovery. I flashed MIUI again and rebooted. No problems after that.

I did not do the factory reset. That's where I think the problem is coming from. Just clear the cache and dalvik and flash the rom. Shouldn't be any issues from there.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] the2rrell:
For those having Root issues........

the only way i was able to 100 percent get it back was to nandroid back my previous Miui(with root) then flash the new Miui over it WITHOUT any wiping.

if i wiped, half of my apps would see Root(Adfree, TiBu, wifi teather) but the cpu programs would not see root(pimp my cpu, voltage control, set cpu)

with no wiping though i have no issues at all.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sl0v4k:
so i did the steps to get recovery back and it worked. when i tried getting into it again it wasnt there. i dont wanna have to do those crazy steps over and over just to flash things lol
[Samsung Infuse 4G] vijovame:
Sorry guys, I want to say thank you. Bye bye. infuse was a great phone
[Samsung Infuse 4G] demonspork:
Definitely not the place to say that. This thread is for dev of this rom. Not goodbyes.

Does anyone (talking JordanElliot here) have any thoughts or comments on my two bug reports? Lack of special handling of YouTube URLs and nonfunctional screenshots using the built in miui shortcut
[Samsung Infuse 4G] BravoMotorola:
Can anyone explain the whole "red cwm" thing? Can't we just download rom manager off of the market, flash the recovery and install?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jvanlew:
Here ya go.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] thephoneguyusa:
Red recovery was my best bet to flash MIUI then once again from the blue recovery. I have also done it from the green recovery too also flashing again from the blue recovery.

We need to support our developers I have been supporting developers on xda for a while now and have stars under my name to prove it. I will make a 50 dollar donation to the XDA developer that can figure out a true fix for the miui rom bluetooth a2dp and for full cellphone usage on the infuse 4 G. I hope this is not illegal. 50 bux is not much but something is better than nada!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] francous:
Anyway of getting a working. Swype? The one I backed up keeps force closing..?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LuRock:
I had the same problem.

If you have it backed up with Titanium Backup go to swype in TB and wipe the data from swype. Then restore (app only). Should be working after that.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] francous:
That actually didn't work... once you reboot it comes up force closing :/
[Samsung Infuse 4G] zelendel:
This will not be fixed untill they use better drivers. All roms that are CM have the same problem with WIFI and BT drivers as they use open source drivers instead of the ones built for the device
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LordGeek:
Well, after playing with 1.10.14 for the past 5 days .. I have to honestly say .. this release SUCKS.

Other than the issues in regards to the root, where some apps find it, but other do not !! Installing SU 3.0 from Market did not resolve issues, the SU Binaries could not be upgraded because either 1. cannot since original SU binary files or 2. Says my phone is NOT rooted !!!

Have restored my phone since putting 1.10.14 on back to Factory Stock and starting from scratch .. 3 times .. even if I get it working perfectly, which I did twice .. within 1 day of usage, all of a sudden, various applications will just automatically FC !!! Reboot .. and those apps FC right at open .. and its not always the same applications .. although 1 is .. the Google Framework !! thats the only one that was constant. Now this is fresh/raw installed .. no additions, no MODS .. nothing.

The only stable release I have found so far was the last one (v1.10.7) .. so until someone can figure out what REALLY screwed up the build beween v1.10.7 and 1.10.14 .. I'll stay @ 1.10.7 until then.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] xdahgary:
Working fine for me. New releases every Friday, so relax.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Clyzm:
So I kinda screwed up...

I was going to flash the new gingerbread leak that's out, so I went to Odin back to stock using ultimate unbrick. Ever since that flash, I've been caught in this boot where it just hangs on the Samsung logo. I can't get into recovery using the 3 button method, but I can get into download mode and reflash (which does nothing for me).

Any ideas?

edit: Reflashed the stock Rogers kernel. Problem solved.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] cirecomputers:
This is a very unstable Rom! Tested it many times. Can't overclock it without numerous force closes. It's a very good Idea, but just really doesn't work too well on the Infuse. Do yourself a favor either use Infusion or defuse roms or even better find a I9000 Rom and port it with Linuxbozo's Hellraiser beta 9. You'll have a fully functional nicely overclocked ROM (with the Infusion 1.1 kernel) with enough features to keep most people happy.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LuRock:
I see what you mean but as long as you don't reboot works fine. I Don't mind restoring if I happen to reboot. But We r still in the healing process. :)

Miuinfuse
[Samsung Infuse 4G] steadly2004:
I have to dragee, I ran infused and serendipity, and didn't like the battery life. This miui is very quick, and doesn't gobble up the battery, and overclocks to 1.4, very stable. Rare force closes
[Samsung Infuse 4G] allendoc:
Completely agree... I have tried every ROM for the Infuse (nice having two), and I have had no problem with 10.14... I am using the newest modem... Weird how some phones work, some don't.... I did not have Root in my tools folder until I did a MIUI restore... But I never lost root...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] andrawer:
Just want to say this also worked for myself. Only remaining problem was that Titanium Backup couldn't get root privileges...clearing data via manage applications fixed it so everything is back to normal :) . Great ROM.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] fleadog99:
Ok I have been reading these replies about the root issue and that it's not stable. I have yet to have any issues with this rom, either the first one or this one. I was on infused for a long time, then went to serindipity and now I am at MIUI. I read the instructions clearly. I NEVER do a factory reset (from the phone), I only do a reset (from CWM either red or now blue) if I am going from a different ROM type, not an update. I usually only do cache wipe + dalvik cache wipe for updates. I always make a CWM backup (in blue CWM). I have never had 1 force close and have ran 1.4ghz since day one of MIUI. What I suggest is the issue is jumping from one rom to another, to another. Somewhere along the lines several files got jacked up. I am not sure if you can ever go back to stock, as I am not a developer. I suppose if you do go back to stock and it works. Keep it stock until an official GB update comes out, or an official MIUI comes out. Since there are bootloaders in the nwest leak, this may help in getting to CM7. I think a lot of people are just trying anything to get this on there phone. Once it is screwed up, seems it is impossible to get this or any rom running prop. only making things worse.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Well then fleadog you are the lucky one...I've been flashing roms for years and I never do a factory reset of any kind when updating ...but this one needs to be fixed...a lot of force closes and no root....I have had no problem with miui til this update...but I am confident in Jordan that he will fix this...he's the man...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MaverickCoast:
Questions

In my case, I was not having a ROOT problem until I went from MIUI 1.10.7 to MIUI 1.10.14.

Is that not a MIUI ROM issue? :mad:

The ROM would "be better" (as you put it) if it didn't loose ROOT!

Afterall, ROOT is a pretty d*mn important issue. You can't reinstall any backups from Titanium without it, ie. your "boat" is dead in the water, unless you want to reinstall everything one by one (No thank-you)! Nothing p*sses me off more than when I follow the directions TO THE LETTER and it still doesn't work. At that point, I share my problems with the hope it will help or alert someone else! In this case, I think the directions FOR going from .7 to .14 should be changed in regard to doing a Master rest or Delvik cache wipe. YOU SHOULD NOT DO THEM!

This isn't directed at you personally, mulcahyd, I just get a little perturbed at people being critized for asking questions AS LONG AS THEY ARE RELATED TO THE SUBJECT (ROM).

I figure the Devs want to know what is going on, both positrive and negative, with their ROMs. :)

My appologies. JMHO. Sorry for the soapbox. Back to business.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] phoenix2217:
Guys you need to remember. These versions of MIUI are BETAS! They will have issues. There is a stable version but its almost 4-5 builds ago last time I checked and isn't available for our device.

For the people with freezing/OC/UV issues.

If you are UV/OC and getting freezes then I am sorry. Certain kernels work with certain phones better. If there is one thing I've learned from the captivate forum is that no 2 phones are alike. EVER. One person in the captivate forum was able to over clock his 1 GHZ to 1.8 GHZ. I couldn't even touch 1.4 GHZ without stuff crashing. Every phone is different. You need to find the middle ground.

I'm not trying to rant, just explaining. MIUI 1.10.14 is a beta. Treat it as such.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JordanElliott:
The stable will work. But id rather wait for a newer stable to port because it will have all the new stuff fixed and features that are in the betas
