back light notifications - basically instead of lighting up your whole screen - the bottom 4 lights of your phone will light up when you have a message / missed a call etc
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] illathanyours:
Incredible, will try that!

Are any of you participating in the show off home screen thread under themes and apps? With all this traffic thru miui you should!

Also that camera issue, going black in the viewfinder after previewing photos seems to be fixed with this update, still no headphone fix tho? How must we approach the fix to this?

Quick question, do miui backups get wiped when you switch between different roms? I'm talking about the backups made with the built in miui backup app.

I want to try one of the other roms (not cm7/miui) just to experience more on this phone. I'll, of course, come back to miui :)

Also, do I need to flash a different kernel (like I would with the infuse) or can I just wipe and flash?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stevehkim:
not sure if the miui backups will stay because to flash a new rom you are wiping everything. Don't quote me on that one. I do know that you will have to flash the kernel of your choice after as the new rom will include a specific kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatin707:
Ok, gotcha.

I wonder if I can move my miui backups to keep them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stevehkim:
you can always move your backups to your pc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatin707:
From the miui app?

Fix for Market freezing issue in MIUI Version 1.12.23 and 1.12.30 Versions

Hi All,

Those who have issues (device freezing) with Market in MIUI versions 1.12.23 and 1.12.30, please follow below instructions to fix. Tested in I9100.

Open root explorer or similar app > Go to system/app > Find "com.android.vending.apk" > Change permission to rw-r-r > Reboot.

This was personally tested by me and I tried downloading few apps from market which was working flawlessly. Please let me know if you still have issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] n1nj4dude:
yea i just updated to the latest.. it didnt work so i tried the one i was on (2.5.2) which didnt work either.. but had been working for me on 1.12.9(the version i was recently on before .30
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TechSilver13:
That's really odd. They have all worked for me. Are you sure you know what your doing
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] n1nj4dude:
yes. im aware of what im doing.

---------- Post added at 02:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 AM ----------

I normally use the BLN Control Pro, so to touch toes on each side of the pool i uninstalled and installed the free bln and now it works... so something is different between bln and bln pro causing it to not work properly

so, I've been seeing what kinda battery life I'd get for the last couple days after wiping and flashing on Sat. No better, still getting hot, still ridiculous battery drain, still same culprits draining the battery. Any other suggestions? I'm open to anything, any help would be appreciated greatly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] afrojoc:
Uhm.. do you use your phone alot? lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TOA Duck:
you need to see if it is stuck in 1200 mhz. Mine was having the same symptoms. Get set CPU or another overclocking app and see if it's staying at 1200 or going down to 200. That's where the heat is coming from probably.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Donmeister85:
So were you having freezing problems yourself before this fix? And you haven't had any problems since?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] priest2705:
I just installed SetCPU I've got it set to 1200-200 ondemand scalling, dropped voltages from 1200 to 200 by 50 each, ran the stress test, seems to be working fine right now, but we'll see
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gumboman4:
First of all thanks @shep for the awesome work of keeping this ROM updated.

I don't know if this the right place to post but here it goes. I use gosmspro because I like having different sms ringtones for individual contacts. For some reason it never let's me pick them while using any MIUI ROM. When I pick system sound from the individual notification sound option it just flashes right back and doesn't let me pick any sounds.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] priest2705:
yes I do use my phone a lot...I work at an authorized AT&T retailer. But, I made my original post on Saturday concerning my issues with battery life and actually had some really helpful people shoot some suggestions at me. I followed those suggestions and, as of right now, I'm in the same boat. But, I'm seeing what SetCPU can do for me right now and I'll post back with the results. And again, thanks to everyone for the help that you've given me, I really appreciate it. That's why I love XDA so much
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] akira02rex:
When I ran the stock miui kernel (cm7 kernel) the phone would get hot just using it for day-to-day tasks - I did verify it was deep sleeping as well and my scaling was 200-1200. After switching to Siyah this no longer happens.

I run 100-1200mhz scaling with 825mV at 100mhz and 1250mV at 1200mhz.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wshing:
I've dropped the cpu speeds to max out on 1000 and have been using luzactive without any issues and I've been able to keep more than 20 hours of battery life.

Use cpu spy to see if you are able to get your phone into deep sleep when your screen powers off
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TechSilver13:
Very happy with the newest version 1.12.30. Havent run into any issues so far. I do have a question, when I receive my first few SMS messages after flashing it pops up asking to allow N.O.V.A 2 (the game) access to the net or something like that...I have to hit allow or deny (I hit allow obviously) and the text comes through. Any ideas?

Ya check and make sure there's no Cheetos on ya fingers. Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatin707:
Uninstall nova (back it up of course :P), reflash the latest MIUI (don't wipe), let it settle for a few hours, then reinstall NOVA and see if it happens again.

NOVA might be blocking your SMS while its active.

Cheetos, beanbag chair, lube. Happy new years all :p

My wifi toggle looks like the vibrate toggle when I press on it. And my torch toggle looks like the sync toggle until I press it then it changes to the torch toggle. I have had this issue on the last 3 or so updates. I do a wipe and fresh install each time. Anyone else have this same problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stevehkim:
no problems here with toggles. sounds like either a bad flash or bad download. its happened to me before on previous devices. do you go into mounts/storage and format everything? i always do this but i take my external sd card out. format everything so there are no traces and stick my sd card in and restore nandroid or flash a new rom. its probably your best bet.

thank you and ctbear for your input. i didnt try this earlier after uninstalling pro, since i got free working.. but i reinstalled pro just now to find it lighting up again. something must have been wonky and just needed a fresh reinstall. i thought it was odd free would be working and pro wasnt.

weird, thanks again

Extract the mms.apk from the previous version and change permission to rw-r-r. Copy/move it to system/app by using root explorer or whichever explorer with root.

NOTE: this guide was for miui.us 1.12.30. i believe the latest one from the OP shouldnt have the message app FC.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] polobreaka:
I thought I was crash free with the latest miui (not miui.us), but it just crashed while I was using the market.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stevehkim:
fellas. which miui settings are you guys using? my status bar tweaks aren't working ie. center clock, carrier options.

miui+siyah = beast
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] polobreaka:
For the extended setting? im using 1.12.9. I flashed signed-overscroll.v1 to enable miui control panel.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatin707:
Are you guys having the issue where your phone locks up and then you reboot and your battery is much lower?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moustro:
For what its worth I found my issue with the toggles. After my fresh wipe and install. I changed my toggle order. Then later I flashed the miui control panel and no overscroll zip. This caused my toggle icon change. It didn't change the action just the icons. Might help someone in the future.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatin707:
Tried another rom, didn't like it at all. It showed promise but needs refinement. Back to good old miui.

For the record, yes your backups aren't deleted :D

Now on to figuring out why the hell titanium backup can't get root access but all the other apps I use can.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moustro:
You need to open super user and allow it to monitor your calls
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatin707:
Really? That's blocked on every other app and they work.

Edit: That did not work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] moustro:
Did you use the app killer to kill TB. You have to fully restart TB after the change. It worked for me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatin707:
I rebooted the phone and it still had issues.

I uninstalled and reinstalled TB and the license (both from the market) and it's fine now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] polobreaka:
probably because you restored from a backup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatin707:
App only shouldn't cause a problem, and it never has on any other phone I've had.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nicktuso:
Yes using root explorer and it says I can't rename the file because it already exists.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] polobreaka:
1. Using ES or Root explorer (or adb shell if you prefer), go to /system/lib/hw
2. You should find two files: 1. lights.smdkv310.so and 2. lights.GT-9100.so
3. Backup file 1 and rename file 2 to lights.smdkv310.so (name of file 1)
4. Reboot

at step 3, backup file 1 meaning either move file 1 to a different location or what i do is rename it to "lights.smdkv310.so.bak" so i know its a backup/original file. then rename file 2 as file 1.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nicktuso:
Used bln free and pro, worked with the free one but lights only stayed on for 3sec after the screen turned off. This is what I get with the free app, won't even let me attempt to turn it on in the pro version

Edit* got the app to say the kernel is compatible but the lights will still only stay on for a few seconds after the screen turns off. I'm going to try the pro version again and see if it is settings. Crap forgot to say I'm using Siyah with this. I'm sure that makes things different...crap idk.

Thanks anyone who is helping me on this one.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] TechSilver13:
The reason the screen drain is so low is because he never uses his phone. Same reason why his Android system usage is so high. Now if I am wrong my bad to the guy with this phone but from his battery life and from what I have been told before thats my guess. I bet his screen usage was less than 2 hours on that charge.
