I just reinstalled Chrome, and it didn't work. I figured maybe I needed to reboot, but that didn't help either. The only things I changed in the ROM before flashing was edit the build.prop to increase the Dalvik VM heap to 128m like the stock MIUI ROM and add Google as the default DNS, and I removed some unnecessary apps like the Google Gallery, Superuser (MIUI has Permission Manager to handle root permissions; Superuser is redundant), and a couple others I can't remember. I also wiped everything, including /system and ran a format-all zip before I flashed the ROM, so I don't know why Chrome would work for everyone but me.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomzefi:
i would like to see proof that it works on no hwa
[EVO 4G Android Development] ladle3000:
Why do devs using anything besides goo-inside.me for downloads. Seems the only dependable one IME
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomzefi:
thats bad ass ...what did you do. i just flashed v5 and went back to drews well not because of chrome, and it didnt work....i jump from yours to drews and i would like to get it working when i flash v5 again...and i have tried on gummy, moz, aokp, swiperat and no go man
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
Nothing special was done, I just installed via play store.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MonsterMatt:
I like the sound of that, you and Psp working together to achieve HWA considering this and gummyworms is what I'm constantly Looking at but can't go with the change until HWA is implemented. Great work thus far :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomzefi:
oh dude....now i am going to flash it again and try onr more time....lol......thank you and you are doing some good work ....best ics miui in my opinion
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Am i the only one getting the MIUI launcher FC after going to the last page on the right? At first i thought it was because of restoring with titanium but then i uninstalled everything and reinstalled fresh from market and it still FC
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
Try changing the VM heap to 128m. For some reason, it's at 32m by default, which is probably way too low.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
i tried through terminal a2sd heapsize128 and it got me stuck on the bootanimation :/. Im changing through the build.prob before i flash now
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
thanks its working now :D had to change it in the build.prob before flash
[EVO 4G Android Development] MonsterMatt:
Can anyone using the latest V5 ley me know if the stock emoji works?

The one in the stock sms app when you hit the paper clip and then the smiley face.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Day 2 with the rom and have had almost no problems. Changing VM heap size to 128 helped a lot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomzefi:
Almost? So what problems do you have. I would like to no please.....
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Right now I tried camcorder and while I moved my phone slowly to the left and right while recording it caused my phone to become unresponsive and bootloop. But before it recorded fine but playback looked weird. Changing the heap size got rid of the miui home launcher FC on me
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomzefi:
Cool. Thanks. I want to give it another go because the first one was just buggy and weird random things. I am going to change the heap size and they again. I assumed the dalvik heap size was 128 out the box. Evervolvs that I am on is set to that out the box. Any way I gonna do it again. Not all themes will work for 4.0 though rite? I had one get stuck on blank home screen before.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Just gave camcorder another shot recorded fine twice but playback looked messed up still then on my third time about 30 sec in during recording phone froze then restarted to the boot animation. Yes I believe not all themes will work with miui v4 but I'm still rocking the stockish look I kinda like it on miui v4
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomzefi:
I can live with out cam cord
[EVO 4G Android Development] flex360:
just flashed this and went back to flash something else 20 seconds later

utter garbage rom

sorry for bashing it. but it is not a good rom at all
[EVO 4G Android Development] coffeehandle:
...

LET me at em. LET ME AT EM
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Obviously user error :rolleyes: . Could you do better? Probably not :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] flex360:
ive been flashing roms for a year and a half now

i wipe properly and everything

so dont try to insinuate that im some idiot noob
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
That's right you've been FLASHING roms for over a year and a half. That gives you no reason to come in here and just post "this rom is utter garbage". If you can do better at making this rom be my guest and go for it but if you can't keep your mouth shut. This will be my last comment I'm not going to keep the thread off topic.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slick4mitch:
Yep ... probably are. Make your own and stop *****in'.
[EVO 4G Android Development] a senile fungus:
Is this not a work in progress?

~ I'm a fungi
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomzefi:
Dude, if you don't like it just say so . That's your freedom of opinion. Choice of words to describe your opinion is what make you an idiot, no insinuation.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Alright guys let's not derail the thread anymore and let's get back on topic. Anyone experience any weird issues while using the rom they want to post about? All I've noticed is camcorder is a bit bipolar and video playback looks kinda weird
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomzefi:
You been at it for a year and half and you have not built an appreciation for developers? Ya, that makes you an idiot too. No insinuation. I am not even on this rom because I prefer evervolv and when I see comments like that, I have to shout back. No harm.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomzefi:
Cam and everything with it will be an issue for awhile because of drivers and kernels and such. So really, its not an issue. If its just that than it is considered stable enough to use as a daily. Keep up the good work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Yea camcorder doesn't bother me I just need camera to work just in case I ever need it. Definitely daily driver for me
[EVO 4G Android Development] sunkim50:
no need to bash the rom. if you don't like a rom for whatever reason, keep it to yourself. these dev threads are started to help the developer out and to gather feedback.

am sure these types of comments discourage future development!:mad:
[EVO 4G Android Development] suarezn:
Camera works as well as Panorama and video...If you install the ICS camera zip that's floating around the forums. It's just the front facing cam that doesn't work.

Here is a post from another person detailing this.

Flashable zip file

http://www.mediafire.com/?5r599m5jg5yfaqn

Known issues:

Sometimes screen has some garbage while in Panorama mode viewfinder. Quitting completely from the app and restart or invoking Gallery from inside the app and returning back to camera app should mostly fix it.

Regarding this ROM my only issue with Sinister is that it seems like he tries to rush stuff out sometimes without a full test...having said that I'm using this as a daily driver with the only thing I'm missing being Torch and of course the usual ICS stuff that nobody else has either. I would never bash a ROM anyone puts together since they know a heck lot more than me about ROMs. My respect to anyone who even attempts to build one...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
Sad to hear you think that. If I may ask what are your issues with the build? And I advice that if you dislike the whole development of a rom, you should refrain from wasting space from a pointless comment.
[EVO 4G Android Development] w1zk1d:
Version 5 is miuch more stable and faster but I am still getting some weird issues with the lockscreen and MIUI Home. I have to use pin to unlock, not sure if that effects it. Lockscreen circle sometimes is located high up on the screen- and when I drag to unlock, it reboots MIUI. Not sure why this happens, but at least happening less in Version 5. Also, when I play music, there seems to be an issue there-- once so often, it pauses and skips. Sinistertensai- what version/brand of recovery are you using? Have you partitioned your SD Card in any particular way? Have you flashed anything else to your phone other than the rom? Perhaps any tweeks that are not built-in? Also, Chrome is working on my phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
This is what i did changed vm heapsize to 128 in build.prob before flash then flash dta2sd then mason kernel then vipermod. Then i moved dalvik cache to sd-ext and then did the CoD tweaks then installed Chainfire3D and changed the texture quality and then undervolted -100
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kenjari:
Can some explain to me how to change heap size to 128? I just updated my sis evo and I haven't did this in about a year. Thanks in advance.

I gotta crank this thing up. Btw ..is there any other kernels that work better? What about a supercharger script that's applicable for V4? Sorry if this has been discussed already!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sooks:
Is it possible for someone to post a mirror for download? I really want to try the update, but my download stalls around 30MB.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
I changed it in the build.prob using notepad++ before flashing the rom. And you can use v6 but you have to use the latest one which is RC7
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Also I would like to say congrats to sinister for being the official evo4g miui maintainer :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
Thanks, haha I was not expecting this but eh. I'm honored.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MonsterMatt:
I also saw that on Twitter and am really excited for you Sinister! Glad to see you maintaining the EVO for MIUI!
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
I noticed that the lockscreen problem happens when I lock the screen while the phone is in landscape. I don't have the rebooting problem, though.

And why the **** does Chrome work for everyone except me? This is bull****.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HipKat:
No Offense to Sinister, but umm, what does that say about Swiper, who was the first person to pick up on MIUI after Stiff left?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
hmm, try running rom managers "fix permissions".
[EVO 4G Android Development] oodork123:
Dumb question but what are the chances of seeing a sense version of the ics miui rom or ics sense for the evo 4g?

shaggydowell
[EVO 4G Android Development] oodork123:
Also Sin, looking at the goods bout this rom saying camera/camcorder and in the bands didn't say FCC (front face camera) is that working or just for got to put that up lol?

shaggydowell
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kenjari:
How do you change it in the build.prop before flash? On desktop or on notepad in the phone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] w1zk1d:
I also just downloaded it from Play Store, but it didn't work for me in v4 when I tried.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
On pc using notepad++ regular notepad won't work you need notepad++
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
There can never be a Sense version of MIUI, because it would be Sense and not MIUI. The whole point of MIUI is that it's neither stock Android nor Sense/Touchwiz/Blur/whatever.

As for ICS Sense ROMs, I'd expect something to be ported from the Vivid or Sensation, but who knows how long that might be?

There is no FFC in any ICS ROM for the Evo. The drivers haven't been written yet, and FFC is very low on the list of features to get running, after full HWA (Deck and Drew both have it, but they're working out the bugs still) and full camera/camcorder functionality.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
OMG. I'm not the only one? I thought I was going crazy. I wonder what's so different about our phones that it's not working for us. I mean, I hate to make such a big deal about something as petty as Chrome not working, but after the third or fourth person posted that Chrome worked fine for them after I tried several times, I can't help but get a little jealous.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] suarezn:
I thought Chrome needs full HWA for it to work. Someone posted in another thread that you didn't really need it and you could make it run with a build.prop tweak, but then didn't really say what the tweak was. I think you do need HWA...I got it to work on Deck's ROM (which does have HWA), but not in any other ROM I've tried including AOKP and different versions of MIUI.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
That's what I thought, but several people already have said that Chrome works fine for them in this ROM, straight from the Play Store. It's not a huge deal, and I'll keep using this ROM regardless, but I'm still perplexed as to why it's working for so many people but not everyone.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MonsterMatt:
Hey endless is the stock emoji working for you on the latest build?
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
Nope. I don't use them, though, so I'm ok with it.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] oodork123:
Dude theres another miui ics rom now with full hwa. That's what he said .lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] MonsterMatt:
Thanks endless.

Sinister any way to look into the stock emoji used with MIUI? I only ask because my girlfriend and I use them alot to show how we're feeling(haha usually penguins and smiley faces) and while go sms allows for emoji I prefer stock sms over it any day.
[EVO 4G Android Development] weirdfate:
where??

i cant get the camcorder working on this gd thing!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] workindev:
I liked this ROM. This is my first ROM that isn't Sense based. I had a few stability problems, but nothing major. But then today I discovered a bug in a pretty embarrassing way. Mute doesn't work on the phone. I was dialed into a conference call for work, put it on mute, and started a conversation with a friend, but apparently the phone wasn't on mute. Whoops. (Fortunately we weren't talking about anything sensitive, but the call was disrupted and they had to get the operator to disconnect my line).

I've verified that it doesn't mute when you select tools -> mute while in a call.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
Working on fixing that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
@Sinistertensai:

Do you have any idea why this ROM makes the Play Store think the phone is a "Sprint HTC HTC Evo", which happens to be incompatible with apps like Slice, Google Shopper, and Google Offers? I tried swapping out all the phone ID info (including the fingerprint) in the build.prop with info from the build.prop from a working ROM, but it didn't work. The apps won't even restore in MIUI Backup because of this, and I would especially like to get Slice working.

Is anyone else having this problem?

Edit: Also, is there a reason for including Superuser.apk in the ROM? Is there a benefit to using that over the built-in Permission Manager?

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] suarezn:
Ah so that's the problem? I have a bunch of Apps that won't install on this ROM as well...and I know is not an issue with ICS or MIUI, because I had them running on other ROM's (i.e. The one from csshuangwaiwai).
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
Superuser is need for USB mount. As for the double HTC in the build prop I have it set to HTC EVO. You can just drop the HTC with a prop editor.
[EVO 4G Android Development] amiblindyet:
I've been on almost every top name ROM out there at least once. I just flashed MIUI v5 a few days ago. I love it. Gorgeous, stable, fast. Just for kicks I put my stock battery back in, fully charged, wiped stats. I'm at 23hours, 9 minutes and I still have 38% left since my last charge. On other ROMs the best I've seen is 16 hours.

Nobody has said anything about it in this thread but if anyone opens "Monitor" and the "Data usage warning" comes up and you can't get it to go away then just touch the Notification and enable Mobile Data (if not already enabled) and toggle set mobile data limit ON and then just raise the limit bars higher than you'd ever use and then then just toggle it back OFF. Boom. Solved.

ISSUE: Native screenshot shortcut Volume Key down and Menu results in a screenshot with the volume slider in the picture. I know you can just touch the screenshot button by dropping down the notification bar but I just thought I'd mention it. Not a problem at all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
The thing is, I already changed that before I flashed the ROM. I saw that the first time I looked through the build.prop, and I changed it to "PC36100". It still comes up in the Play Store as "Sprint HTC HTC Evo". I'm gonna keep looking into it and see what I can do.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
Press Menu before the volume button. Of course, then it's a ***** to get browser screenshots, because the menu pops up, but that's the only app that causes problems with the menu-first method.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sinistertensai:
New version on the way. also a new thread for MIUI.us Builds, think of this as a nightly / not yet stable build thread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MonsterMatt:
Cant wait to try out both of your new builds the ICS and especially the GingerBread it'll be nice to finally have a updated version of it with everything that ICS doesnt quite have fully functioning yet. You da man:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] souleman:
But now you gotta update it to Android 4.0.4!!!

(sorry had to be a pain in the arse sometimes :) )
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
Not to ruin your joke, but Sinister wouldn't have control over that anyway. It's up to the MIUI devs to update to 4.0.4. They're usually pretty quick, though. We should see it in the next month or so.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmillspaysbills:
Hey guys, awesome ROM. I love MIUI, and the ICS integration is going to be bad ass once this thing is at 100%.

I flashed v4 and I had a bunch of issues with MIUI home FCing. I flash v5, and it was a little better, but I still had a ton of problems. So much so that I couldn't use it any more and had to flash back to Gingerbread MIUI.

So, what would happen is when I restored all my apps I would end up with about 4 home screens. 1) Search bar (standard upon flashing) 2) clock and standard apps 3/4) My restored apps.

Trouble is that when I swiped to get to the 4th page MIUI home would FC every time. I flashed v5, and it was a little bit better, but I would still get the FC almost every time. Additionally, I would get a FC whenever I tried to remove a widget from the 3rd home screen. I ended up having to flash back because I couldn't use the phone.

Just a bit of history, I flashed Caulkin's format all several times, wiped Dalvik several times, wiped Cache several times. I did a clean install on both v4 and v5. I even tried flashing v5 a couple of times. i restarted the phone several times just in case that was causing the issue. Still no luck.

Everyone else on here seems to be having no troubles. I've read several people say this is stable, but it didn't seem that way for me.

Any ideas what's going on with me? Could it have been a bad zip file? Really hoping I can get MIUI ICS back up and running. It was super slick.

Thanks guys. Keep up the awesome work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
Change the Dalvik VM heap size to 128m. It's set to 32m by default, which is way to low. That will 100% stop your FC issues.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] amiblindyet:
So I fully charged my OEM battery in my phone until the green light comes on, unplugged it and the battery icon reads 90. I plugged it back in and rebooted to recovery. Wiped battery stats. Boots up, unplug, reads 100. after another reboot my phone green lights at 90. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
Yeah. The light turns green at 90%. Not a bug. It's a feature.

MIUzI weighs a ton.
[EVO 4G Android Development] amiblindyet:
Immediately after I posted that I checked my mah and saw that everything was as it should be. Thanks! By far the coolest ROM ever.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmillspaysbills:
Aaah, ok. that makes a lot of sense.

Is there a VM Heap option in this version of MIUI or do I need to download a 3rd party app for that?

Thanks again. That's a life saver.
[EVO 4G Android Development] amiblindyet:
you can change it before you flash the ROM by editing the build.prop (recommend using notepad++) or if you're already running it you can change it in Rom Toolbox app under the performance tab. You should download that app anyways. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] ECrispy:
Waiting for Sinister to update to 3.30 version since latest MIUI changelog has a huge list of updates. Can't wait to try MIUI ICS on my phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MonsterMatt:
@SinisterTensai any news on an update or even the gingerbread version?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mikeyscislo:
I really liked the V5 I had downloaded, but it just wasn't stable enough for me. If I downloaded apps while listening to local music, it would reboot. If I were in a phone call and I had to look at a text, it would reboot. The homescreen became really laggy as well. I hope this can be stabilized, I loved it except I couldn't deal with the issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] amiblindyet:
So I flashed Tiamat's 031412 ICS SBC kernel and MIUI became slow to the point it became unusable. I had a look at the kernel and I can't figure out why MIUI doesn't like it. Any ideas? :confused:

Edit: I forgot to change the heap size to 128m. I changed it, should I try again or am I noobing by trying this kernel?

---------- Post added at 06:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:44 PM ----------

Mikey did YOU change the heapsize? I had none of those problems. I even just tried and couldn't duplicate any spontaneous reboots. Try updating the heap size in build.prop to 128m. You'll see a world of difference, trust me!
[EVO 4G Android Development] aggiedf:
I'm not running this one but I am running swipers miui ics and I flashed the tiamat kernal which also slowed it down to being unusable. I think it may be due to no hwa in rom. You may wanna try mason kernal without hwa compatibility. I use the g version with SBC and fco and it runs great.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
Like the previous poster said, it's because Tiamat kernels require full HWA. Use a Mason kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ProCision:
downloaded, wiped, installed, wiped and now sitting on boot screen for over 30 min. So i wiped installed and wiped again and still sitting at boot. What is the ave. first boot time for the rom? (Checked the md5 and its good)
[EVO 4G Android Development] amiblindyet:
maybe a minute or two. what did you wipe? everything? data? cache? dalvik? system? try wiping everything. then flash the zip. then restart. try a battery pull and then start again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rezurrectah:
Nice looking ROM. The problems Ivy having are random reboots, stuttery video playback, and some lag (not a big deal).

I've increased heapsize to 128mb but problems are still there. I really like this ROM and don't wanna give it up and go back to GB MIUI.

Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ProCision:
i wiped everything. twice, did a battery pull still sits at boot screen. I am going to flash a sence rom, then wipe again and then try this. I also am running team win recovery. do you think that has an issue?

got it to boot.

I flashed decks aosp rom and then wiped everything and then flashed this and it worked. now let the fun begin. thanks
