If usb gets up and running it might become my daily driver.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
My suggestions. For usb, include usb.apk from some older versions of cm9. It's needed for cm9 too. Don't know why it's not included. And for bluetooth, try additional kernel from oleg and me.
[Motorola Photon 4G] s1yder:
What about gapps? Or we can use Jocker's?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bricky23:
Gapps are in it already.
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
No need for gapps just flash the spleefiuitest1 zip and run will have to download/restore your user apps planning on adding titanium for quicker restores next build of course miui has a builtin backup but I don't know how it works soooo....

miui

hey thanks a bunch for rom! never used miui much, but as im a big fan of cm, but wanted to try and help with testing. so far its very smooth and i've had little errors

get com.android.phone fc or whatev when its started up... got a couple boots. when i hit music it FC's, mms not working, and roam message for me as well....still testing will report back.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Battery Life is great! 14 hours 40 minutes (phone was at 90% when I flashed). Died right as I read the "how to take screenshot"...LOL

Would have been MUCH better had I not left bluetooth on for about an hour at idle (knocked battery down from 43% to 13% in an hour). To put that into perspective, it took my phone almost 3 hours for my phone to kill the remaining 13%, :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
ok heres my report on 1x.3.3 finally got the boot ani. back started from scratch and left that mess alone. but some tings still fc'ing more so than in the 2x.3.3 builds so........ not going to post it really not worth having to restore especially since v5 is running so well.

yeah bt still wip can try using a cm9 kernel but could lose the tweak joker did to the stock one idk though
[Motorola Photon 4G] ski21:
What I did was download v3, and v5. I used the wipe zip to wipe everything, then installed v3. After it booted up, I booted into recovery, wiped again then installed v5. It is pretty smooth. Just was concerned with the sms not loading without have to click download. Can't wait until you get a final version. I believe this rom will be my daily driver. It is definitely smooth.
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
when you say downloading sms do you mean mms? never seen having to download the sms but have had to download some mms before not sure if thats normal or not
[Motorola Photon 4G] ski21:
I don't think it's mms, because there is no pictures or files, just txt

---------- Post added at 02:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:07 PM ----------

Also my wifi won't find my wifi.

K I think I figures out the whole download sms deal. I have my emails forward to my txt messages, so when I respond to them thru sms, it sends as mms i guess.

Is there a way when you hit the home button to have it take you to the main screen with the clock.
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
i

home should take you to home page on Miui launcher I do it all the time... not sure about other ones maybe select i it as default launcher can check menu/ launcher preferences for launcher settings also some apps in market will do this for you like home switcher

so far as Wifi goes my Wifi has never worked better no dance sturdy connection not quite as fast as IMO should be can try pressing the scan button in Wifi settings if it doesn't search automatically can also try resetting your router. if none that works try starting from scratch v3-v5

news flash i just ported miui 2.3.9 from the nexus which is where atrix gets its from about to try it out if i did it right will put us one up on them.......crossing fingers

pants wont boot not looping just sitting there with the miui animation flashing

flashing another test this time with .3.1. .3.3 was built to be more of a update/addon i think so im trying .31 since it flashes on its own

Thanks it does take it to the home screen, I just had to tap it 2x, once close the program and puts me on the screen before I started program then the other time takes me to the home page. My wifi is adhoc, is that why it's not finding it? Also I got the phone set up where I want it now. Is there a way to save everything so when I update, I can just restore it and it will be set up the same way, or do I have to go thru adding all my programs and setting my screens up again. Thank again for you work, on this rom.
[Motorola Photon 4G] XCellPhoneSalesRep:

[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
yeah use the backup app built in but dont restore the actual SYSTEM data restore anything else though apps contacts sms mms home screen set up the whole nines really like the app. most likely thats the problem its adhoc idk if its supported or not
[Motorola Photon 4G] ski21:
Thanks Spleef. Another ? is there a way to install the music app from the stock rom. I like how the stock music app had internet radio.
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
you know im not entirely sure but if you want to try can put it into system/app in rw mode in root explorer or a root file browser similar to it give it the same permissions as the other apps in system/app and then reboot. shouldnt hurt anything, i would think worse thing would be it doesnt open and you simply delete it reboot and its gone. if it does or doesnt please report back so anyone else wondering will know

thanks

BTW i cannot get 2.3.9 to port will keep trying so far ive tried with 3-4 different similar phones all ran into same problem, hang in boot animation its not looping just never changes just stays in cycle will keep trying to figure it out tried with cm9 .31 and .33 both same result just a fyi in case anyone was looking for me to slap another one out today or anything.... have a few more ideas and ways to try just need to charge ye olde battery ya know
[Motorola Photon 4G] ski21:
Thanks for the info. Now need to try to find the stock music app
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:

It's all good. I'm enjoying what you have already put together.
[Motorola Photon 4G] DWake014:
So I came from the old alpha to your alpha 5 and no data. *sigh* Gonna try flashing v3 then upgrading to v5.
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
the only way to use 5 is to full wipe/format flash 3 let it boot

reboot recovery

wipe cache and dalvick cache flash 5 let it boot

reboot recovery

wipe dalvick cache and fix permissions

reboot

i realize this is a huge process but for now if you want a very stable experience this is the way to go
[Motorola Photon 4G] thatguy07:
Between miui and cm9 i have flashed my phone 6 times in the past 24 hrs. You guys are on top of things. I download over 3g and it seems that by the time I've got one downloaded something else is up. Love it. Thanks for all your work.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Total process takes less than 5 minutes if you use the 2 wipe .zips here:

Wipe-All-Photon.zip-wipes /system, cache, data

Wipe-Cache-Dalvik-Photon.zip-wipes cache, dalvik

[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
Yeah what happened was I started porting in the middle of everyone updating so naturally I had to keep everything up to date so that's why we have do many. Planning on shrinking op since 3 & 5 are the most important

[Motorola Photon 4G] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
There is a different theme format between MIUI GB and MIUIv4. You are not going to find a theme that "fits" a 100%. Icons, most of status bar, walls, dock, and some apps will, no should, theme over. settings screens will not, not until v4 themes are created. There are a few themers that are currently working on v4 themes. You need too remember that MIUI still only "officially" has 2-3 devices available with ICS. A lot of ports are still in alpha and beta and devs wanna get the rom right before people start spending time theming. No point on themin broke roms....

When the FULL v4 themes drop, i'll be sure to post them....

This has easily become my favorite rom. I'm getting best battery life I've gotten with my photon (14 hrs and still 48% battery). Everything works nicely. Mms works great in gosms...at times was hit or miss in stock app. Phone, bt, USB, themes. Great work:D

installed v5(after installing v3 first ofcoarse;) ) on USCC electrify, and wow buddy...amazing work..super fast, super slick...it pretty much worked right out of the box...no apn edits or build prop edits...you da man....

I have a few questions to ask...and have done some googling on the subject...

is there anyway to remove the download limit when on mobile data... the most i can download is 10mb...even though i disabled it....if not is there way to increase the options listed adding 20mb-100mb?

bluetooth works, but randomly shuts of when listing to bluetooth audio, is this kernal related? this is the same behavior i had on uscc stock 2.3.5rom

is the 8 point multitouch mod included, and is it safe to install beats audio?

and dont hate me for asking as i know there is some video issues with ics for photon, but will the bravia engine zip do anything for this rom?

thanks again for your hard work

[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
was looking at the cm7 thread and the mokee thread someone there has a script to make it see them correctly but its not perfect yet has issues maybe it would work on miui ( not sure untested i havent tried it just seen it ) so far as setting go when i port all the apk and framework is miui except for the few i throw in or are already there so any settings that cm9 has might not be there if they werent intergrated into miui originally or by the porter in this case was the atrix team originally and then by myself to the photon in which neither used them. so for now keep an eye on that script unless you have experience in editing such things is a wip though so as it progresses thhose sort of things should get worked out. sorry i have no real solution other than idk at the moment.

i know you can force it to download it once you try to downloa something too big you should get a pop up message asking you to force it anyways click yes and it will download... so far as setting it past 10mb i dont think you can at this time you can change some settings in the monitor apk but its mostly just for the warnings i believe and can try turning the monitor off maybe then it wont know you are exceeding the allowed limit....

bluetooth still very much needing fixing the man ( joker )is working on it. the base of the port is joker's cm9 so the bluetooth issues reside in it and from reading can flash a oleg/peter kernel to fix it but im not sure if it fixes it completely is one of those have to try and see things.

im not sure if the 8point is buit in but i know joker has the raindrop fix built in or has stated so in the raindrop fix thread some time ago. and as far as beats goes its pretty much same answer have to try and see the miui is still fresh off the burner so am not sure what works and doesnt work on or with it yet best guess would be to read up on the mod you wanting to use and see if others having similar device specs have had success or even someone on miui using it

the bravia i am not sure could try it and see but make sure you make backups cause could mess with things or make your sound horrible.

wish i had more answers but i dont as this roms grows/updates we will have them but for now is best to research research research ... i realize thats what you are trying to do by asking but i really am not sure and dont want to tell you misguided info and have you having to sbf or some crap

Is there any other sms app besides gosms. I tried handcent or something like that, but it keeps error and closing.

[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
On the preinstall, did you use the apn file that I posted in fixes or edit the file as it existed in the rom? If you used mine, that will create a problem depending on which version of CM9 you're using as the base. Joker changed around the file before he released his latest build. (CDMA used to be on line like 520, and it was on 300 something on 0.3.2). To use the apn-conf.xml that I made, you would have to have a base of 0.3.1 or earlier...

either way tomorrow can look for miui2.3.9 alpha going to update op making 3&5 (betas) into their own category since they run great. will keep it updated with the atrix and cm9 as they come as well.also putting my 2..3.9 in its own category since its 100% coming from miui not the atrix this way we get best of both worlds... ill do my best guys to keep op understandable, links easy to find, and both build updating. so bare with me cause its going to be a hell of a ride probably going to take down post 2 to be either atrix port or miui port the fixes, apps, and stuff there can be found in our man th3bill thread and xcell thread as well as in mine in theme/app section...

I apologize for the huge post there I'm just excited and wanted to share the news

I just had a thought...with the "data not working" issue for 2.3.9, could that be from the fact of using 0.3.3 as a base? Maybe try building 2.3.9 over 0.3.1 or Test 3. While it would lose us what Joker did between 0.3.1 and 0.3.3, if we get it running right, we can always figure out how to try to implement those changes after...would also allow use of Oleg/Peetr kernels which have some good bluetooth work done.
