hi every one

i would like you know base roms [ROM] Official MIUI 1.10.21 , because after me update rom and checked base rom of me is : KH3 """
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Kavko:
Are there any kernels that have better battery life that i could use? I tried siyah when i was using galnet but it was even worse then the one that galnet was using...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] netcitizen:
battery life with sgs2 - MIUI was never great since the 1.9.6 version. but again its still in development phase. so give it some time. do the battery calibration, check for partial wakelocks caused to remove/freeze the apps that cause it, try for sometime and if u still feel the drain then may be try some other ROM.

---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:07 PM ----------

I am not sure if the ROM ships with a Modem. If you had already using a KH3 modem then its likely that it was untouched.

Can someone post camcorda fix. Link not working.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] netcitizen:
not sure why is the issue. may be you must go back to a stock ROM using ODIN and then flash back MIUI after a clean wipe.(data,cache,system)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jorse912:
Thanks a lost
[Galaxy S II Android Development] netcitizen:
Its the same as CM7 camera app. check cynogen wiki/forums. When i downloaded it, it still was not recording for me. I tried the free LG Camera app from Market and it worked fine.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] jankhner:
I thought this does the same thing that FasterFix does... But i'll try it anyways, thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] langthang:
For MIUI ROM, you don't need this app because MIUI allow you edit directly:

Goto Setting - Personal - Location Settings - GPS Configuration and change to what you need

And you can use GPS Status app to improve GPS Lock time

I changed my GPS to German and it works like a charm! "Cold lock" took about 15 secs, after that I've always had a lock after 2-3 secs!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jankhner:
GPS is now working after applying gangsterjoop's fix!! Now i have zero problems with this rom!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] troyjamz:
Video recording quality is horrible compared to stock cam. I would definately like to see a hi bit version of it as that is one of the major reasons i bought the sgs2.

Other than that, this is a work of art!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DobermanS:
Running it for a day,for sure there some bugs under the hood about some services,

IMHO they cause battery drain,they appear constantly on,parallel with graph of screen on :

1.the light sensor - screen brightness on manual

2.alarm manager - no alarm set

Voice Input + Music Player Cover Art

my posts was 2-3 pages back but no one has given any clues on them, so I'm asking again. :confused:

How do i get Voice Input? I can't use Google Translate (through voice translation) and iris. (android's Siri). Voice Input only works for the Default MIUI dialer. Searched a bit, and some suggests to install Google Voice Search from the market, i am able to find it in the market but it says "Your device is not compatible with this item". Zzzzz.

And about the Default MIUI Music Player, ain't it suppose to download Album Cover Arts when i have already enabled it in the settings? Cause mine just shows a CD in the background.

Hope some experience users can guide me a bit on these 2 issues.

Thanks.

Camcorder Zoom issue

Anyone?

Also, so fat what kernel fits "almost" perfectly with this ROM and does it matter to use any kernel for this official ROM? (sorry, newbie here. I always thought that any custom ROM has already preloaded with custom kernel as well)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] luster:
I get hot battery from time to time

Every few reboots I cannot get any signal (reboot fixes this)

BT Audio streaming doesn't work, BT headset/car is fine

Aside from this, the kernel is exceptionally stable, I'm very happy with it!

whats the deal with using ninphetamine kernel with this rom?

and how come many are having heating problems, thats not healthy!

is it due to the kernel - rom combination?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mbroeders:
Well, ninphetamine ain't an AOSP kernel so of course that won't work.

As for the heating problems; as this is mostly a themed CM7 rom, it's most likely due to the media scanner. I'd recommend downloading OS monitor and see what process is keeping your cpu running. I bet it's the media app. Delete all videos you shot with stock camera from the phone and the heating will go away.

As for kernel/rom combination, you can try Syriah or whatever it's called, but it's best just to stick with what comes with the rom...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Blue1k:
I think you have hit the nail on the head. I couldn't figure out why the last 2 builds of miui had horrible battery. The only difference was I had a bunch of videos on the card from a stock rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] queenkong:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] E-riko:
I didnt flash anything, that is why all the question, I tend to do some research and ask questionn before getting into eventual problems...

thing is I would like to update to MIUI (love the interface) but I want to keep similar battery life that I got from the Lite'ning rom (but the dev left), this was due to a good rom and a good kernel combo (ninphetamine) wich let me use SETcpu app so I can set profile and custom volt values.

All that assured a good battery life and a wonderful phone.

But in short, I wont leave Lite'ning rom for MIUI if there is bad battery life and possible heating issues...

Can I use the volt settings in SETcpu with Syriah kernel? cause not all kernels enable that option...

And what is the kernel that comes with the ROM? Because there is absolutely no information about all of that in the opening post..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] queenkong:
Anyone having the problem of phone not detected by PC in usb debugging mode after the flashing of the rom?

Was on MIUI 1.9.30 by gangsterjoop and had an OTA update to this official 1.10 now. Suddenly, phone not detected by PC anymore when in USB debugging mode. Tried a reboot of the phone, reboot of pc, reinstallation of Samsung kies, changing of USB ports but none worked :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] langthang:
You should backup your phone and flash another ROM for testing.

Need test for sure hardware issue or ROM issue to solve this problem

[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] chaosdefinesorder:
After my pain-in-the-arse experience of trying to get Dolphin Browser HD 7 installed on my Streak this morning, I thought I would share my experience and solution for those who may have similar problems.

Background:

Put simply, Dolphin HD 7 is exclusive to getjar at the moment. Browsing to the GetJar site using dolphin 6.x presents you with the desktop version of the site even when UAString is set to Android in settings. In this fashion, clicking "download" on the Dolphin page presents a "select your device" window. Entering "Dell Streak" presents the Streak as a device to select. Selecting the picture, however, does absolutely nothing no matter how many times you tap it!

Using the desktop site on a desktop browser gives the same window, but this time it "works" but says to browse to m.GetJar.com on mobile browser and select "quick download" at the bottom. Even the stock android browser redirects to either the desktop version or Dolphin browser (if Dolphin is set to default)

Solution:

So, here's how I finally got it to work (this guide assumes that you do NOT already have the GetJar "application" installed):

1) Go to settings => Applications => Manage Applications and make sure that there are no defaults for browser applications

2) open app drawer and open Browser (stock Android browser)

3) in the address bar enter about:debug and press "go"

4) press Menu key => More => Settings

5) scroll down to UAString and select Froyo-N1

6) in the address bar enter m.GetJar.com (if at any time it asks for a browser choice, always select stock browser unless otherwise mentioned)

7) at bottom of page select "quick download" (this link will not be there if UAString is set to "Android")

8) enter 40963 and press "download" (or replace with the quick download code of your desired app if different)

9) if you're lucky it should send you to the Dolphin HD 7 ptoduct page. Press "Dowload" and it should prompt you to download and sideload the GetJar APK. Do this.

10) Ignore the GetJar "application" in the app tray, it's just a web portal that ALSO defaults to the desktop version and so cannot download anything on Gingerstreak 2.4!

11) Go back to stock Browser (if you have not closed it, you UAString should still be Froyo-N1, if not, repeat steps 3, 4 and 5). Repeat steps 6, 7 and 8

12) this time when you tap "download", it should give you the option to open the link in "Browser" or "GetJar". Select GetJar

13) Hopefully, fingers crossed, it will now download and install the application!

Obviously, the standard "your experience may vary" applies, but that was the only way I could get it to work on my Streak with Gingerstreak 2.4 this morning...

If anyone knows of an easier way to do this, please do say!
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] danielkaboom:
thanks for the tip,..but what i do is more simple,..download Dolphine7, put it in sdcard, and tap it to install from root explorer, after i uninstall dolphine6.

but atleast i know now how to get Getjar,..thanks.

edit : oh btw,..i use GS 2.4 too.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] chaosdefinesorder:
Well that's my confusion, really. How did you download Dolphin 7 when it's currently exclusive to GetJar?
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] danielkaboom:
idk for sure,...just followed a link that was provided in my email spam box (sorry dolphine).
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] macqueyl:
You are Mistaken...

Dolphin Browser HD 7 is also on the Android Market. I just downloaded it a few minutes ago. Ver. 7.0.2 to be exact.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylerdurden83:
Hello everyone, I have a question about the merging contacts functionality of the GS2.

Imagine this scenario for contact A:

One "phone" tab. In this tab I specify a couple of phone numbers (say cell and home), a nickname, and the job position. I save this on the phone's memory (as opposed to google or the sim card). Also, in this tab I specify an image from the gallery to use for this contact.

One "facebook" tab that comes from the official Facebook for Android app. This tab has a pic that differs from the pic I selected from my own gallery for the "phone" tab.

One "facebook" tab that comes from the Social Hub Facebook account (needed as the above one won't sync the calendar with facebook events). Obviously, this tab also has a pic that differs from the pic I selected from my own gallery for the "phone" tab.

One "unknown" tab, that is actually a WhatsApp tab, without any image.

What happens 90% of the times that I merge these 4 tabs in to one, is that the icon that the phonebook will keep showing is the one specified at 1), the one taken from my gallery.

On rare occasions though, the icon that will be shown is one of the facebook icons.

I have tried merging the tabs in different orders etc, but it seems to make no difference, so I really can't figure out why, on rare occasions, the facebook icons overrides the phone icon in the unified entry...

Can anyone enlighten me? Cheers!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylerdurden83:
And one more thing, I clicked Delete on a whatsapp tab, it said that read only tabs couldn't be deleted, so it was only going to be hidden...

How can I unhide it? I've looked everywhere but I can't find anything, under the Visualization Options I have everything checked...

Android Market › Help articles › Movies › Watching Movies › Watching on your HDTV

It seems to be specifically for the Motorola Xoom, but I would guess the same applies for the SGS II.

No mention of quality/resolution of the movies though.

The only place I could see resolution mentioned was on Android Market › Help articles › Movies › Watching Movies › Watching on your computer

Change resolution

Adjust the video quality from 240p, 360p, 480p, 720p, and up by clicking on the button located on the toward the right side of the control bar.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesking420:
Thank you!

Sadly, I don't see the option of HD purchases on the Galaxy S2, which is a shame.

I wonder if anyone in the UK with a Motorola Xoom can tell me if they see the HD option available...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesking420:
Yay, I now see the HD option on the Android Market :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesking420:
Well, now the option has disappeared for all but a very few movies. Very annoying given that I've just paid out for the MHL cable. What's the point in out putting highdef, if Google's own apps don't support it?

Anyone with a white SGS2 notice that the screen is alot dimmer than the black one? Recently, I bought a white SGS2 for my wife and I realized that on auto-brightness, the screen is so dim that it is almost not readable (much like what the black one showed when the battery hits 5%).

While researching this, I found this post. Hence now I am not sure if it is normal or should I bring my white SGS2 back.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hornedfiend:
I've noticed that my black GS2 has the same issue, but only with custom roms like CM7 or Galnet MIUI. The official roms seem to be ok with the auto brightness setting and function according to standards.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lulabby:
Where is it made in? I bought my one in vietnam ( made in vietnam) and it is very dark on auto brightness compared to others, mine is black. So it is not a matter of colors, it is because of bad batches i guess.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prinzhernan:
I have a white one and in a normally lit room it isn't dark. It only gets dark in a room with no light. Pretty normal performance for me. I previously had a black one.

I noticed though that black context menus come out as a light grey.

Could also be lateral inhibition.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supermurmeli:
It's not just the white ones. I just posted a similar issue - got my display replaced by Samsung service and now the new one is dim like yours. Did some comparison with several other units and it seem there is a lot of variations between different units.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seifer1975:
Oh no, does it mean there is no point bringing it back? They may just replace with another dim screen. For the time being, I have hacked into framework-res.apk to crank up the brightness level. It will suffice for now. But you are right, the "defective" screen has a very cool and blueish tone.

Virtuous Codename: Trentacinque Beta

Maybe some of you already saw on Virtuousrom Website that I was able to leak some screenshots of the new Virtuous ROM. But now I was able to leak a complete build from them *lol*

But now to the "real" stuff:

The rom itself is based on the Runnymede RUU 1.05.401.4. After some days with trying to make this build really stable we still need to say this rom is still in a early build state. So be aware that there will be some problems left. Also there aren't any tweaks at the moment in the rom. We first want to make it stable and then begin to add some nice features.

As you maybe already saw we have no name for the rom at the moment. Therefore we started a thread in our own forum where we got a lot of suggestions for it. We will now try to pick up the best five suggestions and then start a poll here on XDA.

Changelog for Virtuous Trentacinque Beta 2

New Features

Update base to Runnymede 1.05.401.4

Update kernel to newer V10 build

Calculator with switchable different themes

Thanks to nunggg for his version

If you have already made or want to make a mod for the calculator than we will be happy to add it too if you want.

IME keyboard with switchable arrow keys

You can choose if you want to show or hide the arrow keys

Advanced Power Menu (APM)

Overglow effect

Bug Fixes

All devices are now more stable

Less output in logcat from rmt_storage
