Wifi problem

i might be wrong in asking this here when its clearly written that wifi is working still

i am on v9 nothing else i.e. no mods applied..

i face no backlight issues no audio shutters nothing

i only face wifi issue ie whenever i switch on my wifi no list comes up with names of wireless networks then when i goto settings then to wifi it FORCE CLOSES and after a while phones retarts again and again till i dont switch off the wifi.

i upgraded from v8 to v9 directly...

KINDLY HELP!!!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
From what I could understand, you did something with Themes and it went into a bootloop. It can happen in certain cases. Just keep a CWM backup handy after you've flashed MIUI and done all the setup. After you have a CWM backup, mess with themes all you want. If anything goes wrong, you can restore the backup.

That is very strange. MIUI does not show networks as a pop-up, you have togo into Wi-Fi settings and choose to connect to a network. But Wi-Fi settings FCi'ng is something I haven't heard of until now.

Did you flash any kernel on top of MIUI?

First attempt I know, but is everything that's supposed to work already working? I mean, apart from what we know doesn't work.

And you don't like vanilla Android? :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] gm007:
yes everything that work in Waleed rom should work fine.maybe i am wrong so need test.

Urgent help, not booting

I was on V9 and Vurrut v3. I tried to flash vurrutv2 through MobileODIN but nothing happened so I went to recovery and flashed it as PDA. But phone got stuck at Samsung Logo. Then flashed v3 zip from recovery but phone does not boot. After Samsung Logo seems as if it shuts down. Flashed MIUIV9 zip through recovery but still same thing. Now what?

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Dipu K:
Backlight issue

I assume what you mean is that it may be related with the hardware, and the software doesnt take care of that particular hardware variation... Unfortunately my phone is in the problem category and what I have noticed is that this problem was there in earlier ROMs, in KPE and KPQ, I never faced it (which also means that it is not a pure HW problem, but it is related to software - kernel, driver or ROM). But once I moved to V9, I got this problem again. Yes, I know it may not be easy to do this!

My observation was that when I press the sleep button, things are fine and phone goes to sleep. After around 5 seconds, the backlight comes. So what I have done temporarily is to write an app which loops every 5 sec and executes the below code:

PowerManager pm = (PowerManager) context.getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);

boolean bIsScreenOn = pm.isScreenOn();

if (!bIsScreenOn){

PowerManager.WakeLock wl = pm.newWakeLock(

PowerManager.FULL_WAKE_LOCK

| PowerManager.ACQUIRE_CAUSES_WAKEUP

,"BBL");

wl.acquire();

wl.release();

}

So every 5 sec, app acquires the wakelock if phone is sleeping and then releases the lock which forces the system to go to sleep.

Anyway, will wait till someone who is familiar with the things deep inside finds some solution to this problem...

rgds,

Dipu.

hey bro thanks for sharing this one...:D downloading now... but still thinking if i will flash it... the only thing i love in cm is the screen rotation.. which i was trying to put on your rom... and fix the vib... but still no luck :D... thanks again for sharing

I was a faithful Poseidon Rom user for a few months.I can say i'll be on MIUI from now on . v9 is a very smooth and stable rom.No FC's till now.

Followed OP Instructions and this (1000/300/smartassv2/sio)

Everything mentioned in OP works just fine.If you faced any problem read the FAQ.A few bugs were encountered as mentioned in the bugslist. (Restart on Rotating Device both in Stock Video Player and Freeze after capturing the pic and pressing back).

No Wifi Drops.Music playback is fine , no stutters.'Mx Video Player' v1.5 failed to play some of my videos. Switched to 'Dice Player'. Plays all videos just fine.

Although , I am eagerly Looking forward to the video recording and mic fix and also Cyanogen ROM.

Big Thanks once again to JP and all those who helped with this ROM :D

on another note, I just wanna know what's changed in the camera for some odd reason I took some amazing shots today and compared via the stock camera, the shots are bloody amazing...Here's a few that I uploaded taken via the camera app. Also there are 2 camera apps on the screen LOL.

I don't know how into photography most of you are, but the color vibrance and clarity is ****ing brilliant.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
+100000000

Its got the Bravia engine. Much better colour tones and better exposure handling. :)

The two cameras are MIUI and CM7. Use whichever you like.. ;) Pictures will be the same.

Btw, JP is a professional photographer and I'm a hobbyist semi-pro. :)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mhajho29:
yeah before on stock rom i dont get a nice shot... but now yes... thanks to JP..... :D....
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
Made me LOL hard when JP cursed. I figured it was the CM7 one because of the Icon but I wasn't sure, On another note alot have been discussing the same matter on the S2 forums about the CM7 camera being SO much more better than the stock, And it's true, chief try this, Open the camera (CM7) and notice how the pixels are all smooth edged making it crisp, but then open the stock one (The stock one) and you'll notice the picture seems pixelated :[

Glad to know you guys are into it aswell :] I only realized the beauty of photography when dad got into the whole photography scene :P

Edit: And I was right, here is the comparision, More like phoneception? or cameraception, Taken shamelessly from the 3Gs because screenshot shows a black screen (Btw where are the screenshots saved to in MIUI?)

CM7 Camera

Stock Camera

And luckily my cat was beside me to notice the difference, and he was shocked too. :MotherofGod meme:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] gm007:
The difference is when you open CM camera the screen brightness go to full.

Screenshots are saved in /cache.

For the vibration issue.

The vibration is quite low during calls but upon connect/disconnect of a call it feels like stock.

Guys can check for this and maybe we're able to derive a solution out of it
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ybyb:
Also the battery still not working out for be.

I can last a day with juice defender but without it i'm at 49% after 5hrs on v9.

I only have fb, whatsapp, gmail & exchange email configured. nothing more.

My stats say gmail is taking 43% of the battery i don't know why as i haven't used my fone much for these 5 hrs.

Id love to but then I could always ask vishaal to link post to OP but he's been away for some time now :P

LOL @ anna, I just hope it stays bricked. I didn't know we did door to door customer service? If it loops, READ THE OP 0.0 I didnt know that reading was so over-rated that some people didn't need to do it..

which camera cm7 or miui ?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] gm007:
Yes it should work also.

Use root explorer go to system and keep pressing on built.prop then open in editor,add this two lines at the end.save and exit,reboot. Done

For users who don't know what is modem it's the baseband.

You can flash it separately in odin under phone.

Over the rom no problem.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ybyb:

and this ?

Backlight issue & workaround app

>>>So what I have done temporarily is to write an app which loops every 5 sec and executes the below code:

The app is attached. Just install it and enable. In case you dont want it, put value of 60 and disable. It will not go away, but it will not also do any work ;) App will automatically start after reboot, but loop duration is not carried across reboots... After a reboot, it comes up with default value of 5. If u want to change that u need to do it again after reboot.

My update: After testing this app a few times, now I am not getting the backlight issue as of now!!! Dont kow what process was causing that.... :D

If anyone is using, let me know if there are any bugs...

edit: Yes these don't work, neither does SpeakToIt Assistant (Siri alternative)

Nice! Agreed with @misledz with the photography thing, suddenly camera is important :P.

So basically we try and flash different modems over onto the ROM i.e. KPE, KPQ etc. and find out which works best for us?

Does the camera improvement cause any other change, like for example increased image size?

I don't use GPS and signal's 3/4bars (too lazy to find exact value :$), so do I need any of the reflashing?

@anna try not to post again and figure it out yourself if you have to show that kind of attitude repeatedly.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
Actually doesn't matter what modem it is, most are based off the original anyways. Like DDKP3 is based off XXKPQ and the rest follows with the XXKB3 and so on, I wouldn't mess around with the modems too much, GB and Froyo always did have some sort of major change done to them, flashing a froyo modem over a GB isn't exactly the best idea..can cause issues later. Just not very noticable ones

Increased compression probably would increase the size of the file, probably to 1.5-2mb more clarity when better compression.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jsp1984:
I'm actually using a froyo modem cause in Argentina the frequency works mostly at 850 mhz (850-1900) and the gb modems works all mostly at 1900. Still waiting for an official Argentinean gb. All in all, froyo modem works great. No problem at all! Cheers and congratulation to JP for this rom

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
I know for a fact that certain Froyo modems work absolutely fine with GB

like the XXKB3 modem worked fine with KPE, KPM & KPQ ROMs. I'm not so sure about testing it on CM7 or MIUI. If someone's feeling adventurous, please go ahead and let us know. I would try it myself but I'm tight on time. Worse that could happen is a ref lash. Keep a backup handy before trying out.

Also, the KB3 modem was quite battery efficient and push notifications worked like a charm!

Very good question! :)

It was also working fine on the CM9 Alpha2. So, its highly unlikely that its a baseband issue.

Yes they work fine. But I notice that the phone sometimes enters in deep sleeps and do not receive notifications and/or disconnect from Wifi. But as soon as I unlock it receive the notification and connect to wifi. about flashing froyo modem you have to delete and rename one file in efs folder (with previous back up of that folder), I'm on my work now. When I get to home I explain better the procedure if you want
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
I don't get it or understand, Push Notifications work perfectly for me on XXKPQ, I get all my notifications properly, I understand that most people expect that when you install an app you are supposed to get automated notifications, Sorry but it isn't like GluGames where a 101 unwanted popups appear.

GMail- You need to configure this manually in the Settings, also in Sync settings you need to enable GMail sync and set what intervals you require it at, Better yet you need to disable to option, here's a screenshot for how to get Gmail push notifications PERFECTLY working with each mail notification.

All push notifications work fine and perfectly, Even XDA ones on Tapatalk, You just have to change the settings to refresh often or such or alert you, by default all are set to "When open app only" because alot of user's have complained how enabling it on default caused so much phone activity.

Edit: I had the Wifi on for a whole day now, since 8am today morning and that's the battery life left on MIUI ;_; Would be nice to know the battery percentage like the previous builds

In earlier verision of Jp-MIUI you had used UC kernel compiled by waleedq.

Was it Overclocked to 1.2?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] gm007:
Yes why??
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jsp1984:
For flashing froyo modem (in my case i flash it with LUBK1):

1) Make a copy of nv_data.bin file, you would find it in "efs" folder (or better the whole efs folder) in sd card, and save it in external sd card (in some cases this file doesn't even exist) so you have a back up if anything goes wrong.

2) Flash the froyo's modem.bin with odin as "PHONE".

3) Once the phone is rebooted open root explorer and go forward to efs folder. Delete nv_data.bin and rename .nv_data.bak (note that has a "." before nv) to nv_data.bin. Close Root Explorer and reboot the phone.

4) You can test data network by letting only connect with WCDMA band and see if "H" appears in status bar, then set up the data network to automatic (or both types of connections). If you are in XXKPQ stock rom you could dial *#0011# and see the frequency of the connection. This works for me.

I came from XXPQ with froyo modem, but i think you can flash the modem whenever you want. Correct me if i'm wrong.

This is a pic of my baseband in JP Miui v9:
