Another thing...some of you may see the "Maps" is recurrently loading. To get rid of this, long-press on GPS toggle, click on "allow location services", hit "ok", then un-check "allow location services". This will keep maps from auto-reloading.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bullfrog527:
Hey I just noticed that the data toggle in the notification bar doesn't work. I've had it off to save battery and I'm all able to get online and receive emails.

I know you guys are working on a lot of stuff, I just wanted to let ya'll know :D

I even tried to turn off mobile data in the settings and it doesn't work

[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I'm not sure if that's due to the new "settings" they have. I know that themes don't touch it...I'll ask around and see if anyone else is having same issue or if it's just us...

My camera doesn't connect after i tried taking a pic very first time miui and read everything did i miss something
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
DId you flash Cam fix? The camera apk I put in the build was an incorrect one. The Cam fix zip is the correct cam...just flash in cwm like any other flash zip :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] jbb2388:
OK, just flashed .23 over .16 with only wiping cache and dalvik. Booted it and it started updating everything and moments later was up and running .23 seamlessly.
[Motorola Photon 4G] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
Hey Mr Bill, is that a new mms fix, different from last night, or same deal?

OMG Mr Bean is on HBO. Havent seen this dude in a while!!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Same one...just put it on dropbox for a guy who couldn't download mediafire on his phone.

BTW: for medafire...when it fails to download the first time, click "Try again". It always works on the second time for my phone (never on the first). Just remembered that...LOL

Excellent! I'm very glad to hear that! All your settings keep?
[Motorola Photon 4G] dcowboys2184:
Nope nothing camera doesn't even connect
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Did you go to system settings, apps, all, camera

Force Stop, then clear data. Then try camera. If you FCed your cam and didn't do that, it won't reconnect to it until you do.

[Motorola Photon 4G] bullfrog527:
Mmmm, was just checking to see if my camera is good and it isn't. I think it was working on .16. I don't use it much so I don't know when it happened. I have flashed the camera zip and the mms zip from last night. I think it was working fine after I flashed the camera one now that I think of it, so maybe it's something with the mms?

I am having no camera issues at all, even after the Camera fix.

For the life of me it seems to be taking better pics than the Stock Motorola Camera software too..

I'd test your special surprise... but I am on the Electrify so I dont know how valuable it would be to you :P
[Motorola Photon 4G] dcowboys2184:
I know those issues are on the latest cm9 builds too 4.0+
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Yeah...but I don't have any of the issues with camera. It's strange, really...do you have an SD Card installed? If you don't have an sdcard installed, you can go into the vold.fstab and swap the mount point information for the emmc and sdcard,and you should be able to take pics...
[Motorola Photon 4G] cdrice15:
Only issue I have with the camera is taking a picture in portrait while cause freeze. In landscape its fine....but that's how it was in cm9 in was running.

Sent from my Electrified android
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I only take in landscape...so that could be why I haven't noticed any issues. Phone has a rather clunky placement of physical cam button if you hold it otherwise...LOL

Good deal! Knocking down the issues on the photon MIUI build :) I'm still working on how to get rid of the second service indicator...it's a tough little bastard...LOL
[Motorola Photon 4G] bitbearmi:
Great job team! Enjoying playing with this build. The biggest glitch for me so far has been that the Play market now shows the device as being "incompatible" with a number of common applications including Foursquare and Domino's Pizza. Titanium Backup freezes when I try to restore these, and the Play market says "This Application is Not Compatible with your Device". I've tried the version on the Amazon store and it downloads, starts to install, then says "Install Failed".

Any ideas?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bullfrog527:
Try an older version of the app. There are a lot of apps that aren't compatible with MIUI ics yet

sent from my MIUI MoPho
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Unfortunately, bullfrog's right. There are a good number of apps that are NOT compatible with MIUI yet. It uses a di fferent set of framework files than CM9, even though it's based on it. This requires app devs to in a sense port their apps to MIUI. It should only be a matter of time for now until they update it. More apps come out every day that are MIUI compatible. I understand it is frustrating, but in the end, I think it's worth it :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] likearaptor:
So if we do flash a rom at less than 100% battery do we wipe battery stats after it is fully charged? I usually do some flashing at night and by then my battery is quite low and it would take a bit before I was back at 100%. I'd rather flash that night, let it charge all night long and then wipe battery stats and take it off the charger. Would that be an ok method?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Don't need to...according to Android framework engineers, battery stats are automatically wiped when the phone reaches 100% charge. :) After your first charge, the battery will be full and ready to go. I've never deleted battery stats, and have routinely gotten 16+ hours on my MIUI builds...

I'm actually doing modifications to the auto-brightness as I type this which will help a little more for battery life :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] sdw79:
Yea my battery life is not too great but camera works great.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Still working on the tweaks to auto-brightness settings. I'm also trying to get rid of the duplicate service indicator in the notification bar (which I think is also in the framework-res apk, so it may be an hour or two, but I should at the very least have a fix for auto-bright that will save some battery. Once MIUI fixes theming so that we can have the notification area themed as well, there will be more battery savings (screen won't be so bright). Also debugging some other things (though those won't be out till most likely tonight or tomorrow at the earliest)...

I appreciate your patience :)

I'm also going to TEST build a version off Joker's 0.4.2 alternate, though I don't know that it will get released, as if it's not better than what we have, I don't see a point...
[Motorola Photon 4G] LucKyPunk:
Also just because the play store wont let you install it doesn't mean it wont function on MIUI. Download it on another ICS device and manually install the APK, about 75% of what google wont let me install (on MIUI) seems to work just fine. FWIW
[Motorola Photon 4G] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
Mornin Kiddies :) I hope i can play a lil more then i did yesterday...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
You can try this method, but be aware that the app may not completely function properly, and could cause issues with other parts of your system.

Also, the dual antenna notification issue I've been working on....well, that's a MIUI bug that apparently will need to be fixed upstream. It doesn't affect data...just cosmetic...nothing like wasting a couple of days work trying to get rid of something you can't...LOL

In any case, I've got the battery tweaks done, just need to recompile and package as a nice, flashable zip, then we should have some improvement in battery. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] jbb2388:
Couple things. .23 is running great, thanks guys. Impressive work. These aren't necessarily bugs but prefs. I love the battery percentage inside the icon but I wish it would stay during charging and maybe just have the icon change color to signify charging instead. I use GoSMS for messaging and the custom notification symbols don't show. Just the three dots. I wish the native messaging apps would have the ability to customize notifications for diff contacts. I also wish I could figure out the whole soft key illumination bug I've been experiencing. Argh.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
The notification area should be fixed within next couple weeks...things were a LOT more theme-able on previous versions...but when they changed the system settings, some strange things got borked (like notification area themeing).

The 3 dots I believe may be due to the custom service banner, but could also be related to above issue as well.

The softkey illumination may be fixed with the battery things I did. I tried some stuff on this release, and edited settings on those...may have inadvertently borked it a little. I'm rolling back that change only. I am setting auto-brightness more aggressive so as to save battery, though....as well as a few other things :)

Is there a way to stop the warning/ notification that I need wifi every time I try to download anything over 1mb. Almost everything in the play store shows up needing wifi and I'm getting a pop up stating the file is to large to download and I should connect to wifi. Its not just the play store....anything I try to download.

[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Just an FYI guys. I'm going to post 2 versions of the new framework-res.apk on here. One will be for those of you who want your EMMC (internal) as primary to your device. The other will be the standard, SDCARD as primary. Should be up within about 20 minutes.

---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 AM ----------

In the main screen, click on the little folder with the multi-icons in it and select "Downloads". When it opens, press menu key and select settings. Then you will see "File Size Limit". Click on that, and change it to 10MB(highest option). Not often you'll be downloading something larger than that too often on data plan...

I gave you a thanks for that one, as I had been irritated by that issue as well, but hadn't really looked for a solution yet...LOL

---------- Post added at 11:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ----------

Here we go...should help to improve battery life for our phones :

SD-Card PRIMARY

EMMC PRIMARY

Cheers! :D

---------- Post added at 12:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 AM ----------

Just an FYI: I will be uploading the updated rom zips tonight (I don't have the bandwidth to upload the roughly 300MB here at work...it's literally dial-up speed wifi). They will include the MMS fix, Reboot Option fix, and the Power Tweak fix. Will be using the SD Primary, so if you want EMMC as primary, you will still need the fix.

Hope everyone's enjoying MIUI as much as I am :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Cythrawl:
Funny, because most of the Apps I have that don't work wont sideload, Nor will they restore in Titanium Backup nor will they work if you copy them into System/Apps folder.

Id say if it wont work on Titanium Backup (causes it to freeze when restoring) you are NOT going to get it to work.. period...

I'd love to be able to use my paid for Winamp and Weatherbug, but alas no, so I have found alternate apps in the meantime until they are fixed.

Ok....had this issue yesterday and didn't think much of it. But it happened again today and it occurs every time. When I place a call the the screen is all zig zag. Sometimes its the call screen sometimes it the home screen but regardless its messed up.

I had that on test 9, but hadn't really had it happen since I flashed this latest version....that is odd, Maybe try fixing permissions?

Have you changed themes? Last time I had that was when I was NOT on the stock theme come to think of it...
[Motorola Photon 4G] cdrice15:
I tried a couple of themes but am on stock theme. Ive tried to fix permissions. I may try to reinstall....could be something residual from the themes.

Sent from my Electrified android
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I'm thinking that has to be it. Some of the themes that show up for MIUI are set up for G-Bread, so they could potentially cause issues with parts of our system. Not sure why the themes app doesn't separate what is compatible from what isn't (like Play store does). What you could try is to go into themes, go into "customize", and try setting the Dialer to Default.

What recovery did you use?

CMW-5.2.7

Are you unlocked on 198_7, 198_6 or other?

Unlocked and the rom I had was ISC from jokersax 0.2.0

What steps did you take to flash(wipe method)?

I use the Wipe-All-Photon.zip and then install the zip file

Have you tried any "fixes"?

I tried the GSM fix from Jokersax but it didn't run, the operation went aborted

Have you made any changes internally(within the ROM itself or the flashable zip?

No changes, im kinda noob on this

Have you tried wiping dalvick cache and fixing permissions in recovery?

Im pretty sure the wipe was done by the Wipe-All-Photon but haven't try fix the permissions

Have you tried oleg/Peter cm9 kernel?

No, just Jokersax 1.3 Kernel

Hope all this info help and sorry about my english, isn't my native language
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
English is fine try using joker recovery, saved instead of the wipe zip format system, cache, data and wiping dalvick cache then installing. Also make sure on a working rom your set to home only in network settings and in the 4636 menu set to CDMA before formatting and flashing..... Can also flash the newest cm9 kernel and would suggest after first boot to reboot into recovery and fix perm. And wipe dal. Cache hope this gets you going keep me posted ill keep trying to get you up and running also can try redownloading could be bad dl
