Thanks! you guys are awesome! I appreciate all you do as well as your patience and quick responses to my questions!!

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

is anyone having any audio issues with apps like youtube or youmail? they both begin to play then it stops but there is never any audio.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Custodian:
Only audio issue here is that my ui sounds don't work... or sudiable selection
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
sky pointed out some audio issues...they are confirmed.

It is happening with several applications. Angry birds and fruit ninja are the ones we tested with. Audio sometimes works but doesn't always load the files correctly or sync them with the video properly. Not sure if it is a media service issue or some issue with an audio lib...
[Motorola Photon 4G] DethMetalz69:
Fixed mms (with the great mentoring of ebbinger)

uploading now. check back in 15 minutes.

Ran into a speed bump.

Check back a little later LOL.

FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU

maybe not
[Motorola Photon 4G] yepitsme19:
What seems to be the problem?
[Motorola Photon 4G] DethMetalz69:
Ive been pushing framework jar's all night. i thought i had a fix, but i couldn't receive unfortunately.

I may go to sleep soon. But i will get down to the bottom of this nonsense.

I may need to ask cybik how he got his mms working though.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dave0812:
Just wanted to say this is running great on the electrify. No roaming issues and good battdry life. Occasional fc on market when opened. But as soon as reopened it works fine.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mesmerbelly:
Does it see your internal memory like music and pics ?

Sent from my electrified mopho
[Motorola Photon 4G] dave0812:
Yep
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
I'm gonna say this again...i think it should be in op or somewhere that people can see it...

Both sdcard and emmc are mounted!!!

The problem is that the miui apps - meaning camera, music, filebrowser, gallery - cannot view the emmc as it is not mounted to where it is looking. The miui apps only look for files in the /sdcard folder.

If you download root explorer, google music, winamp, any other gallery or application they will see both partitions and you will be able to access your files without any issues.

We have a fix for this - but are not worried about implementing it until we get the hardware kinks worked out.

So for now just use 3rd party apps to view the files - or push everything to sdcard, whatever suits you.

Titanium back up wont read internal sd either anyone? I looked in its settings but no luck that I see
[Motorola Photon 4G] DethMetalz69:
It reads mine?
[Motorola Photon 4G] mesmerbelly:
Ok? Well hmmm I wonder what's wrong with mine is there something u did different? Than just installing it?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bricky23:
I had the same problem. The only program that saw both was quickpic, for me.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Cythrawl:
if its anything like CM7 then the SDCard will be the preferred storage (And NOT internal like stock). If you was on Stock or swapped that in CM7, your Titanium backup folder will be on the internal Storage. All you would need to do is to Copy/Move it to the physical SD Card.. Reboot and see if it sees the backups then
[Motorola Photon 4G] mesmerbelly:

[Motorola Photon 4G] :
There isn't one yet...latest is suppose to be in op but it isn't updated that often. All the downloads are on dropbox but they only let you share links to files not folders.

We are currently getting together a better way to manage the thread - we have a collaboration account for all the miui devs so we can all edit the thread and I am currently uploading everything to box for better storage and management of downloads.
[Motorola Photon 4G] fordthunder:
I might be able to do some hosting. For free with a ftp account for them. Just a idea.

Sent from my Motorola Electrify
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Idk...I think well be good with box...they have better bandwidth too...unless your offering an expensive paid hosting space of your own rather than self hosted from your personal sever...
[Motorola Photon 4G] mesmerbelly:
Same for me only quick pic can see it damn
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
The box account is setup. I will be continuing to upload the current builds to it.

Here are the links to the builds - it will be a lot easier to keep track of all the builds now.

[Motorola Photon 4G] DWake014:
Thanks, my bad
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
No problem...it's at about 15% at the moment - check back in about half an hour using the link provided and the latest build should be up (build 6).

at work tomorrow i'll transfer the rest of the current builds to box.net from dropbox - much better internet there and i already have dropbox synced to that machine anyways.

[Motorola Photon 4G] yepitsme19:
Aside form the phone FC, the only other thing I can find a problem with is the widgets are off center.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
- Data/Call isn't working - most likely same issue as fc's...

- light sensor doesn't work

- led flashlight doesn't work

- Wifi doesn't work

xboxfan360 had me swapping phone and telephonyprovider apk's trying to solve the fc's - thought process being that the current apk's are from gsm phone so we switched them from builds that were from cdma phones (droid 2 and triumph) to see what would happen.

Neither worked - still force closed....but here are the two logcat's from those for people to look over...

Droid 2 Apk's Logcat

Triumph Apk's Logcat
[Motorola Photon 4G] yepitsme19:
Wifi works for me...

Don't use light sensor so I spaced that one

Data/calls not working was meant to be part of the phone FC so I guess I should have specified (though I was sure people would understand *facepalm*)

LED flashlight I don't use either so I spaced that one as well
[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
Pull ril files from cm7 for phone, gotta match dhd.ko with proper kernel, also since this is the atrix miui need to edit the build.prop, remove atrix specific parts and replace with photon parts. Hit me up if you need more help
[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
Doesn't matter, flash something with working phone between tests, one of the Miui roms will mess with the radio. Gotta sbf if it screws it up.
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
its not just led flash, its all led's notice how the bottom lights dont glow? ;)

and yea just seems to have teh same issue as cm7 did at the start
[Motorola Photon 4G] xboxfanj:
Ok. Found one thing: build.prop was wcdma preferred. Switched to evdo. Gonna add some stock ril libs and then ship it off to you guys.

[Motorola Photon 4G] DWake014:
??? Best phone I've owned, well my second one anyways, first one was plagued with issues
[Motorola Photon 4G] xboxfanj:
Can you guys try other build.props? Try replacing with jokerroms build.prop, stock ones, etc. And also, try other phone.apks and telephonyprovider.apks from other cdma motorola devices with miui builds. Mix and match build.props with the apks and eventually, it may work.
[Motorola Photon 4G] RockoDev:
ill give it a try

Got rid of the force closes from phone...well...now it only force closes when entering mobile settings

1. pushed libmobo_ril.so from cybik's cm7 (chmod 644)

2. pushed Phone.apk and TelephonyProvider.apk from Droid 2 Global Miui build (chmod 644)

3. changed the following in build prop (got the values from Droid 2 Global MIUI build.prop):

persist.ril.modem.ttydevice=/dev/ttyUSB4
persist.ril.mux.ttydevice=/dev/ttyS0
mobiledata.interfaces=ppp

I probably just broke something to the point that it doesn't even error out properly...but hey what the heck...

I found a couple other build.prop tweaks in the droid2 that i started adding to see if they would help anything else...i'm not 100% familiar with all the build.prop settings so...take them for what they are

My full build.prop tweaks and commented

Still looking at copying some libs from cybiks to see whats missing or incorrect...trying to get data/voice working...

What do you mean exactly? This can eventually become official (whenever most bugs are squashed)
[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
??? you have miui source???
[Motorola Photon 4G] xboxfanj:
No, but u don't have to for miui.us supported builds.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Those aren't official builds supported by miui.com. Not that they aren't great or anything...
[Motorola Photon 4G] R2DeeTard:
I wiped it like crazy. Nothing.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
its obviously working for other photons...i'd say check the md5 of your download...i'll get you an md5 of a working zip to compare to

just to make sure that your zip isn't corrupt for some reason. also, i didn't catch it - you are installing to internal right? not trying to do a bootable sdcard with miui?
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Stop being a "Dee Tard" and wipe some more lol.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Here is your md5:

AE67F6037d1627DAC1680267818901C7
[Motorola Photon 4G] R2DeeTard:
I was flashing this just like any other ROM. The zip is on my ext-sd.

And where would i locate my MD5? Sorry if this is a newbie question but i'm still new to the android community.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Windows doesn't have it built in unfortunately, don't remember if any of the archiving apps like 7zip or rar have a built in function to show the md5 of the archive. Either way below are two ways to do MD5 on windows...

Windows MD5 Command

Windows MD5 GUI

Personally I prefer the command line, i just toss the exe into system32 and can use the command in command propmpt from any directory. However, the gui will allow you to do a quick compare and copy paste.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Try baby wipes it might help jk Hope they get this working I like MiUI

Sent From My **** While Taking A ****
[Motorola Photon 4G] R2DeeTard:
The MD5 you gave me matched the one the utility spit out. I also moved the .zip to the internal storage and flashed again, and still it hangs at the Motorola logo. Does it take a while to boot up? Am I just not giving it enough time?
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
No it doesn't take long to boot...maybe 2-3 minutes...try wiping dalvik and cache and reboot without reflashing - (not full wipe and reflash)

Otherwise i'm not sure what is hapenning...

but hey guys on a side note - !!!! - this got me excited for a second and i'm not sure how it happend...but i got a text in miui !!!

So here is what I did - i pushed all the libmobo_ril.so, phone.apk, and telephonyprovider.apk as i mentioned in one of my previous posts...

then the only edit i did to build.prop was the following:

Changed This:

persist.ril.features=0x0C

To This:

persist.ril.features=0x0E

When i rebooted after those changes airplane mode was disabled, it force closed like crazy. I enabled airplane mode...and a text popped up.

I attached a screenshot of the text in MIUI...weird that i had no service or signal yet a text came through...

p.s. that text is actually a text my g/f sent to me, i restored cm7 and called her to verify she actually sent me a text and it wasn't a goof...although i'm not sure how the phone would "accidentally" send me a text from a number that happened to be hers...

Edit: Also I have the wifi fix...it's very simple and doesn't involve using a specific kernel

Second Edit: I continue to get texts from my g/f. It appears that receiving texts works fine...but i cannot send. I had her call me...and guess what...i can receive a call...but when i answer i cant hear her and she cant hear me
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Here is an updated version

http://db.tt/XQ98TIro

This build has working wifi and grabs a signal. However it doesn't show that it has signal to the ui - but if you go under settings->system->about->status and you will see it pulled your phone number and account info, but it still says that it doesn't have signal.

Edit: I found a few things from a logcat...anyone have any idea about them...

[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
the problem with it not displaying properly on teh signal is something that we ran into on porting cm7 to the prevail. bad news is it may all work, but cuz teh phone thinks it has piss poor signal it constantly searches for better thus killing the battery.. :(

great job on the fixes tho ;)
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Did it ever get fixed?

Also, I did more testing and when I receive a call I can actuall hear and talk to the person now...i made a few more changes. Had a small issue with putting it to speaker phone and back to normal mode causing lots of static...but already fixed that as well.

I'm going to put up another build with the speaker fix and what i did...and continue to mess around.

Edit: Here is the updated version

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8020060/MIUI/MIUI 12-13-2011 Test 2.zip

I noticed that I was able to talk during calls after I had my brother flash MIUI to his photon and called him to test. He answered and we could actually talk. He switched it to speaker phone, which worked fine. But when he switched off speaker phone it got all fuzzy. xboxfan360 mentioned trying to push the libaudio.so from cm7 - this fixed the issue.

So the above build is the same as the previous, just with the cm7 libaudio.so
[Motorola Photon 4G] shabbypenguin:
yea the issue was fixed, as for what fixed it idk that was someone elses.. something about the meid not being displayed properly and being read
[Motorola Photon 4G] anaragayevafr:
So, should we try this rom, or wait until when you guys fix the bugs? What do you recommend?
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Every rom is flash at your own risk. If this is your only phone I'd say wait a bit. You may not want to use this as a daily driver, but if you like experimental **** then go for it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Exactly...

This rom will not neccessarily break anything on your phone - it can if you don't know how to flash or if you are not unlocked - but if you make a backup and do a full wipe before you flash and flash with a full charge to the battery you will be ok.

That being said here is a list of what's working and what's not (this rom is by no means a "Daily Driver" and should only be used if you want to mess around).

What Works:

Touchscreen

Wifi

GPS (haven't tested navigation yet)

Notification LED

Bluetooth (haven't tested music/data transfer yet)

Most MIUI Apps (1 or 2 will FC)

Receiving Text / Call

Rotation

SD Card and EMMC are mounted (only sdcard is accessible from MIUI File Browser)

USB Charging (tested while device on haven't tested while off)

Mount SD and EMMC over usb to PC

What Is B0rk'd

Outgoing Call / Text

Data

Camera (front and rear)

Light Sensor

FM Radio

Button Led's

Proximty Sensor? (untested but assuming broken)

MIUI Torch (related to camera)

MIUI Settings (sometimes FC's)

Anything I didn't say was working is most likely broken or untested.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Great list! Xboxfanj should update the original OP.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Alright, forgot to mention that FM radio doesn't work...added it to that list already.

I fixed some more minor things - nothing to be excited about.

- Fixed the mobile data settings page not being displayed properly

- Added FM radio, Compass, DSPManager apk's (again fm radio doesn't work yet, and dsp will FC every now and then but works)

- Fixed the sound recorder not filling whole screen (graphic issue)

Here is an updated build with those fixes if you want to mess with it...

[Motorola Photon 4G] yepitsme19:
The power button thing is because the extended reboot menu is not implemented, it DOES read external SD card as well as the internal storage. Just the MIUI file explorer reads only external SD... Even states that in the OP
