Hey lennox, BIG fan of your GB MIUI ROM, in my opinion the best rom available for desire until miui v4 is fully stable hehe, well i believe it to be much more convenient, alot of people have this mod for other phones and roms, ics is meant to have a dedicated button for multitasking, and while the new phones all have it the older ones wont so since i know personally alot of people would like this, as it makes it alot more convenient than holding the home button, and plus alot of people dont use the search button and instead if they need to search something always use tapping on a search bars within the rom... it would be deeply and greatly appreciated if a flashable zip file could be made for such a case, that would give people the freedom to choose.

Any way to have lockscreen and security lock at the same time
[Desire Android Development] P.x.:
Two more issues:

1. Mobile data gets shut off from time to time. Only reboot helps to restore data connection. Maybe it is somehow connected with Data Monitor app, which has unusable controls - set data limit. Cannot change limit from default 50 Mbs.

2. market downloads fail sometimes. For example, today's facebook update installed only on third time, first two failed with 'not enough memory' error. Using normal a2sd.

And by the way some apps have translation problems. Most apps use english translation for system locales with no translation(contacts, dialer, settings, whatever). But some of them(Firewall and Data monitor, maybe more) use chinese, rendering them unusable. :) Maybe that is only true for russian locale.

Maybe you can direct me where to read about MIUI localization so I can fix this?
[Desire Android Development] acuk:
+1 for this!
[Desire Android Development] ph87:
There is still only the English and Chinese language in this Rom... so if you choose an other location then Great Britain there will be some Apps in Chinese! There is a short translation tutorial on Page 31 from me - if there are some question please ask!
[Desire Android Development] P.x.:
Thanks. That is exactly what I was looking for!
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
Its going to be multi language soon enough (I'm on official miui beta team, so I deal with xiaomi directly). They have already started the process, its only a matter of time :)

MIUI Monitor App - some Chinese

@Marange

Just to let you know, the attached screen shots show some Chinese in the Data Monitor App which I think is bundled with MIUI. From memory the English text was something like "Manually Adjust".

Keep up the excellent work!
[Desire Android Development] 1982Strand:
The Monitor app is removed in next (2.6.1) release and replaced by Network Assistant :)

So i guess he'll catch it then ;)
[Desire Android Development] raha0007:
This is my favourite ROM so far, once you had the comfort of MIUI and all its functions you dont want to go back.

In the latest version of MARANGE ROM there is one show stopper for me and that is no ad hoc wifi.

Since it is based on Sandvold's ICS ROM which has an option in the install to add adhoc wifi could you add this in the next version of your ROM.

I use ad hoc wifi about 50% of the time :(
[Desire Android Development] marange:
This should not be that difficult. I will see if I can include it in the next release.

Marange.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi,

I just noticed it shortly before the 2.5.25 came out and Xiaomi removed the monitor :). In the 2.6.1 is a new Network monitoring app. Looks very nice. And it is translated, so no problem there ;).

Marange
[Desire Android Development] 1982Strand:
Fanboys mirrors for french lang packs:

For 0.8.1 - 2.5.18

For 0.5.4 - 2.5.18

@Marange: Could you update the OP with these mirros? :) Thanks..
[Desire Android Development] jordan87:
Hi all

How can I get radio FM with this rom? Maybe some external app?

GREAT ROM :)
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Sometime ago I tried spirit radio. It was a bit tricky to get it to work, but it did (but I don't remember anymore how, should be on google somewhere). But there are some people who complained that it did break their speaker, so use with caution and only with headphones :)

NOTE: I tried again, but could not get it to work anymore. Maybe that someone else has better experience ?

Marange
[Desire Android Development] 1982Strand:
TuneIn Radio is a good alternative :) I'm using it now
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi.

As far as I know, TuneIn is not FM radio. But it is a good app.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] l0minus:
Marange

I have started with the Dutch language pack for the rom, as soon as I have a alpha version, I will let you know or 1982Strand, so you guys can check if I`ve done it correctly,.... :D
[Desire Android Development] bel57:
Hi marange

check your pm :o

Btw I can't wait the next release for new monitoring app :)
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Still need to make some small adjustments, but it looks rather stable, so hopefully there will be a release in a few days (need a little more testing).

Marange.
[Desire Android Development] fede-emil:
Hey, 1982Strand!

Good to see you helping with translations on yet another MIUI rom :D

I got a question about the Danish language pack:

Is it fully (100%) translated? Because most of it still seems to be in English after flashing the Danish language pack. Settings, menues, icons, etc.

I have tried re-flashing the rom and the language pack, but still the same :-)
[Desire Android Development] 1982Strand:
Yes, it's fully translated and hi again! :)

But the DK lang pack is not fully compatible with the 0.8.1 based 2.5.18 rom - i won't be updating before next release, 2.6.1. Disregard the 2.5.25 as it's base is not released..
[Desire Android Development] fede-emil:
No problem, looking forward to it :)
[Desire Android Development] djsynth:
Is there any way of moving from LX-D2SDX to normal PC-2SD without having to start from scratch and reflash everything ???
[Desire Android Development] bel57:
Backup everything with your fav app like MIUI backup or Titanium backup then reflash.
[Desire Android Development] fangthorn:
Out of curiosity, why do you want to revert?
[Desire Android Development] djsynth:
I was on LX-A2SDX and I wanted to move back to PC-A2SD because i have a 16GB Kingston CLASS 4 SD Card and its giving me lags when opening apps... which is a big shame...

P.S anyone know when roughly the next release will be? (its been a while and no disrespect intended to any and all developers involved, just asking out of curiosity,)
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi,

The only way to switch to PC-A2SD is to make a backup, and reinstall. I don't see another way.

The next release will be in the next few days. I just got all the patches in (from the beginning of patchrom till now), so I need to test it a bit more (make sure that a patch doesn't break stuff, which is very easy to do I noticed ;) ). I also want to fix 2 small things (not bugs, but some clean up). So a little bit patient and the 2.6.1 will be released.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] bel57:
Aw yeah I hope you will release it very soon because I was trying some apps and my phone was more and more laggy so I reflashed. Now I don't want to install all apps again then doing the same on the next version :D
[Desire Android Development] fangthorn:
I have a class 6 and it works fine, ... you can get one off ebay for well under £10.00.
[Desire Android Development] djsynth:
Yh i already done that, but thanks for the reply and for your rom, if its so good now i can only imagine how good its guna get when it gets stable :)

when you release the update, will i have to do a full wipe or not? what do you recommend? because reinstalling all apps and reconfiguring all homescreens is a hastle :)

thanks again for the reply...

ohh yh.. and p.s i also asked a couple of pages back (page 60 - post 591)if wether either you or lennox could make a mod zip which would patch framework.jar so that we could access the recent apps/multi tasker function by pressing the search button instead of long pressing home as this is much more convenient and many phones already have this with many roms.
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
Yeah I remember but I just donr have time. Its not important enough for me to waste time on. If you find a guide spelling out exactly how to do it I will, but I'm not figuring it out for you sorry. Don't take that as offensive please, just stating the situation.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
The issue with stability is that there are three variables when things go wrong. A problem in the base ROM, a problem with MIUI itself and (probably most of the time) something I messed up :). That's why I want to spend some time before release to test and let it run for a few days and see what happens. But its getting there.

No full wipe for the new version. It can be installed over the 2.5.18. Found no problem there.

I will look into the search button issue a bit later. Sadly my week vacation is over, so I first need to go back to work. But I think I can find a little time later in the week (but no promises).

[Desire Android Development] chezidec:
tasker / locale

is anyone using tasker or locale (successfully) on this rom?

they install and run fine but they dont execute any actions? maybe i got something wrong?

just trying to figure out if its a problem with this rom, ics miui in general, tasker or just me :D

oh and btw: the rom runs just lovely here, thank you all working on it
[Desire Android Development] asm0diel:
I LOVE the new installer! That's actually the first time I've seen this, I didn't know it was even possible!

I can't wait to finally see all the ICS/MIUI awesomeness, thanks! :D
[Desire Android Development] tajimura:
Just the same for me on BCM Rom with Tasker. Seems that app needs to be modified to work on ICS.
[Desire Android Development] MidnightDevil:
It's "Aroma" installer with MIUI skin :)
[Desire Android Development] elRadix:
is there a way to mute camera/shutter sounds?
[Desire Android Development] raha0007:
I think and I think it was pretty easy, maybe you just have to go on "more"

but maybe this was just in stock miui.
[Desire Android Development] Gregor07:
LED Notification for missed calls / messages does not work (2.5.18 on 0.8.1 base).

Can anybody deny / confirm?

[Desire Android Development] bel57:
Didn't pay attention, you're right :( I can't even remember where are the LED settings :confused:

@Marange: is there a way to add a search function in settings ? Would be great and really useful :)
[Desire Android Development] jerrylin612:
MIUI v4 2.6.1 has come~

marange, when can you carry it for HTC Desire~
[Desire Android Development] Gregor07:
In Settings / Display you can find "Pulse Notification Light". This is on per default but does not do anything.

So I guess this was an official bug report or is there any other forum to report? Sorry for the silly question. This is my first day with a Desire on ICS and Miui ...
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Let marange work, he already has to catch up 4 version of sandvold and 3 version of miui.....

[Desire Android Development] Gregor07:
another bug report

Phone reboots when I have headphones connected and initiate a call as soon as the other party accepts the call.

Can anybody confirm?

P. S. My headphones are from a Samsung Galaxy but this shouldn't have anything to do with it ...
[Desire Android Development] Linto:
For sure, I had the same issue with gb MIUI on desire and my girlfriend sony ericsson headset... so there's a chance it is not specific to this rom...try htc headphones and see if it keeps rebooting... :-)
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Mmmm ... I don't think I removed them. Did xiaomi remove them in the 2.5.18 version ? Very strange. I will look into this.

And I only port the ROM to the desire. To implement new features is a bridge to far. I think for new features it is better to ask xiaomi.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Is this problem reproducible ? Or was it a random reboot ?

I know that there are some random reboots. Sadly it is very difficult to trace what the problem is. Or even if it is a problem introducted by me or something in de MIUI source/Sandvold base rom.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
I know it worked in the 2.5.25 (not released) version, so maybe it was not yet complete implemented in 2.5.18. I just tested it on the 2.6.1 and it also does not work. I will look into this.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] Gregor07:
Yes, it is reproducable. I tried it 5 times on different numbers in a row.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Ok, thanks. I will look into this.

NOTE: Let's see if I have it correctly. You connected to headphones and You phoned to another person and when the other person takes up the phone, the phone reboots ? I just tried it with the 2.6.1 rom and phoned our home telephone and had no problem. Could you check the 2.6.1 version, maybe it is solved ?

Marange
[Desire Android Development] mikegadd:
App button

I know this may sound silly but how do you access all the apps or place app on one of the screens?

Thanks Mike
[Desire Android Development] Gregor07:
How can I find out, if data2ext is working? How can I start it?

Within recovery I have created an 1024 MB ext3 partition and a 128 MB swap file. It worked because now the available memory of my SD is about 1128 MB smaller than it was before.

But in Settings/about phone I have only 148 MB of total memory. I can't find anything hints about data2ext.

---------- Post added at 06:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 PM ----------

Press and hold icon of App. Then drag it to the edge of the screen and it will flip to the next screen.

---------- Post added at 06:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 PM ----------

Correct.

I would gladly check but where is the 2.6.1 version? In post 1 one only 2.5.18 (0.8.1 base) is available.
[Desire Android Development] mikegadd:
Yes but thier is no apps button at the bottom of screen
[Desire Android Development] acuk:
DOWNLOAD 2.6.1:

- Thru GooManager (download from Google play)

- Use the link: http://tinyw.in/MRLh
[Desire Android Development] mikegadd:
Apps Draw

Now realise that there is no apps draw.

But how do you place apps on the screen?
[Desire Android Development] Gregor07:
In Miui there is no App Drawer that you might know from other Android OS. Look & feel is similar to iPhone (this was the original idea of MIUI: combine android technology with the iOS looks)

To get a better understanding of MIUI:

Hope that helps.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
About the data2ext. It is installed as selected by the installer. It should work out of the box. It worked in previous versions and I did not change it. (But I use lx-d2e)

And I just uploaded the 2.6.1. I included the information in the first post.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] marange:
You just install apps thru google play and then it will install itself on the screen. Or was that not your question ? It is not really clear what you exactly try to do. Or do you try to install an app under at the screen ? Just drag an app there.

Please let us know what you try to do and someone will know the correct answer.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] MidnightDevil:
So, how does this last version compares? Anyone?
[Desire Android Development] mikegadd:
How do I get the apps to appear example calculator on one of the screens?
[Desire Android Development] Gregor07:
@marange

Here are the test results of 2.6.1 regarding my bug reports:

SOLVED : Phone reboots when I have headphones connected and initiate a call as soon as the other party accepts the call.

BUG still present: LED Notification for missed calls / messages does not work.

THX for the hint regarding lx-d2e: Got it running - and now I get a better understanding of Aroma (saw it yesterday for the 1st time):D

I can google my way through but I would be gratefull for any recommendations regarding kernel, governor, scheduler and other settings in Aroma in terms of battery savings for the Desire (I don't care about performance).
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Titanium backup will show your internal as 1 Gb, if d2x is established properly on the phone.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Yes, the LED Notification are missing. I never noticed it and saw your report after the upload. I will look at it and hopefully find where the problem is. I know that it did work (I think on 2.5.25, but I am not sure).

About my setup:

I use the shaky kernel. It is a bit faster and has less Black screen of deaths. I swtiched the governor to "conversative" and did not have a BSOD in weeks. I keep the scheduler on default, but maybe other people have other experiences with the setup. My battery savings look good (I do use greenpower thou).

To change the govenor and other kernel settings, you could use 'No frills CPU Control', but I guess there are other ones.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] 1982Strand:
Combined danish/german lang pack uploaded. Thanks to Andy25, Midian666 and rest of miuigermany.de for german strings. (Myself for the danish strings :D )

Also, mirror for full 2.6.1 ROM up too.

ROM + Lang packs

Cheers!
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Calculator should be on a screen. It is one of the miui apps. All apps which are installed should be on your screens. There is no app drawer, there are no hidden apps. All apps should be on your screen. By swipping left or right, you'll get another screen.

Please look at http://en.miui.com/a-39.html. This gives information about MIUI. Note that it is the gingerbread based miui and not the ICS version, but the ideas are the same.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
I'll pm you a (rather dirty) fix to enable led notifications. Needs permissions set in init.d and a modified version of ledmeknow I've made. Will add "LED Notifications" under Display settings menu.
[Desire Android Development] jerrylin612:
hi Marange, I want to know witch kernel do you use.

will shaky's kernel be better than tiamat?~
[Desire Android Development] marange:
The general feeling is that shaky's kernel is a bit faster and uses less battery then tiamat. It is a bit faster because it uses a newer lib for hardware acceleration. But if you want to know which works better in your situation, try both. Just use a nand backup and you can always go back to the previous situation.

[Desire Android Development] ruslanvetra:
i have a problem with all the ICS roms to connect via WIFI to nokia n9 as a portable wlan hotspot.

actually i don`t even see nokia n9 as a hotspot in wifi connections.

and with MIUI XJ there are no such problems - nokia n9 is present ar wifi connections and connects wqery well.

any suggestions?
[Desire Android Development] floramy:
is there a way to remove the 'no service' line from the top left corner? it's really annoying :(

also, since installing this rom I noticed that may signal-both 3g and wifi is somehow weaker... with the previous rom I always had full signal (at home and at my workplace). what could be the reason for that? :confused:
[Desire Android Development] bel57:
Marange, thanks for the new version ! When will you include the led notifications fix ? It doesn't bother me, just want to know :p
[Desire Android Development] raha0007:
I guess thats adhoc wifi too.

In ICS you will not see these networks and in gingerbread you will.
[Desire Android Development] Angen:
Hi marange,when a stable version?
[Desire Android Development] Murrzeak:
This version is very stable, compared to what I used to have with other ICS roms previously. Using it as a daily driver and am very happy. Many thanks Marange!

Just one question. Is it ICS's native "feature" to hide excessive icons in the status bar? Currently all of my additional icons (Llama, Facebook notifications, BatteryPRO) are hidden behind 3 dots. SO I can't tell if there's a notification say from Facebook without unfolding the bar.. Weird.

And a small bug. In the messages app while writing in landscape mode the "send" button is black as well as the text on it. I'm using the stock theme.
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
No, notifications are hidden by miui. You can disable it in status bar settings.
[Desire Android Development] WangChung:
The question you have about the 'Status Bar', try (from the HOME screen), press 'Menu' button, select 'Status bar', select 'Customize status bar notification' and then turn OFF 'Hide notification'

I think that is the setting you are looking for... I only ask because I too was frustrated for a day or two. I think it's an odd 'default' setting, but chuffed it can be removed!

WC

Edit: OR, perhaps the grand wizard lenny_kano might have just gazumped me!
[Desire Android Development] bel57:
Oh, there is one bug. When keyboard is displayed and you close an app (by pushing the back button), the keyboard still remains on the screen, which oblige me to launch another app, then it disappears. Is there a way to hide keyboard when exiting an application ? ;)

Edit: as you can see, the launcher goes up, on the keyboard.

Screenshot:
[Desire Android Development] marange:
He ? What do you mean with stable ? The current version is rather stable I think.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi,

I don't think it is a bug, but more a feature ;). I think it is something which is in the miui code and not because of the port. Miui closes the app, but the keyboard is not part of the app per se, so it is a bit diffcult to close, I guess. I will look at it...

Marange
[Desire Android Development] philocritus:
I still have miui GB and this happens a few times.

Just press the back button again and it will go away.

Not sure if a bug or just a feature... but it is a miui rom related issue and not a porting issue.
[Desire Android Development] bel57:
Ok, thanks Marange but still a bug. In the aroma installer this time, cuz I'm trying to install the new version. It only happens when I choose to install the "AOKP dicitionary pack" (notice the misspelling :p).

This is what the setup says:

- AOKP dicitonary pack is installed
file_getprop: failed to stat
"/tmp/aroma-data/hboot-stock.prop":No such file or directory

And then setup stops.

I have the Data++ Hboot, maybe that is the reason of this problem ?

So I'm gonna install the last version w/o this pack, as always :(
[Desire Android Development] raha0007:
In 2.5.18 I still have problems with adhoc wifi.

This version is the newest right?
[Desire Android Development] bel57:
2.6.1 is last version with Adhoc Wi-Fi improvements, but maybe still bugs.
[Desire Android Development] raha0007:
Omg im Blind where is the download? :eek:

Nevermind found it...
[Desire Android Development] bel57:
I think so :D

edit : yeah, was on opening page.

Marange should use red bold 72pt text :p

______________ ISSUES

Filtering app still in Chinese

Wi-Fi doesn't work if you check "Adhoc Wifi" in Aroma installer.

Aroma installer stops when dictionary pack box is checked. So can't install it. (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27052523&postcount=680)
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
Filtering is only Chinese for non-english locales, due to the way marange merges the translations in (values-en, instead of values).
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Oeps. Yes, you are right. Forgot to look at that one. Sorry. Will see if I can get that one fixed in the next version.

UPDATE: Fixed for next version.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
About the "adhoc wifi". I copied the files over from the base ROM. Will see what goes wrong there.

And I will change the way the translation is copied in for filtering. Lenny is right, I copied them over to values-en and not values. Should be easy to fix so next version should have this fixed.

UPDATE: The filtering chinese language problem will be solved in next version
