LOL.. Bill you speakin Chinese bro.. just wanted to let you guys know it's working since I read so many people having issues.. Before I changed this I wasn't able to receive or send any MMS because when i checked my APN's it was empty.. something I did notice is if you change the MCC and the MNC to the traditional MCC 310 and MNC 120, When you save the APN it just disappears..

Oh and every setting in the mobile network was untouched..

Hey Bill. just want to ask you you think that Atrix ICS leak is going to benefit us Photon users ?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bytethegroove:
The bill you are correct...kinda.... the apn still disappears however mms will work

i believe i figured it out for us USCC customers..

these are the steps I took to get USCC mms to work on a freshly flashed full wipe MIUI

flash the rom, reboot...wait for it to boot

using root explorer or something similiar...edit the build.prop

these lines

# CDMA Carrier support - Native carrier is Sprint

ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=310120 <------------------- this is the line u need changed....in MIUI build.prop it is not right for USCC

ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha=Sprint

ro.cdma.homesystem=64,65,76,77,78,79,80,81,82,83

ro.cdma.otaspnumschema=SELC,1,80,99

persist.radio.cdma.min=0

then extract a working apns-config.xml from the AOKP rom and push it to your phone using root explorer or something similar..

make sure the permissions match the original file...this is necessary becuase the apns-config.xml file in MIUI is not right for USCC

last step..

using root explorer navigate to data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases

and delete the file telephony.db

reboot into recovery, wipe cache/dalivk

reboot...and enjoy USCC mms on the latest MIUI

apns will still be empty, however everything works fine....test a sms/mms/internet and a call

attached are the poper build.prop(had to zip it as .prop files arent allowed to be uploaded, so extract it first) and apns-config.xm(also zipped so extract first)l if you rather not edit them/extract from the rom yourselves

peace

Little help please...

I flashed 2.9.28 this morning and am loving it so far. I've just got a couple of questions that I'm hoping someone can help with.

First, voicemail. Does someone have the original sprint vvm file that is used? As of now, I can't set my voicemail up and I really enjoyed the vvm format.

Secondly, is there a way to get the new S Voice to work on this ROM as it's pretty nice on my Transformer and would love to get it on my Photon if at all possible. Thanks again.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cayjominara:
The APN's didn't work for me...:(
[Motorola Photon 4G] cpfeifer:
My co-worker with a Droid Bionic which is our exact same hardware received an ICS OTA this morning. ICS Blurr looks pretty cool.
[Motorola Photon 4G] AaronEmoBoi:
Bionic is Ti-omap based this phone is tegra so it might not help us
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I'll by putting together a ROMOptions after flash for all my JB roms, rather than making Aroma install roms. Just minimizes confusion in some ways.

The line you referenced works with Sprint CDMA just find...I have apns and MMS send and receive. I'll put an option for USSC into the ROMOptions. It might not be up tonight. I'm working on AOKP right now, then once I have that building, I'll be working on porting over MIUI.us to the Photon and I'll let you all know when it's up :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
New Build is UP 2.10.19

GAPPS are included in it (well, some of them...the framework, play store, talk, and velvet are in there)

CHEERS!​
[Motorola Photon 4G] NishantM:
Updated to 2.10.19, no issues found so far. The ROMOPTIONS worked like a charm too, GSM user here.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Cyclonesrule91:
I switched over to CNA because I could send MMS on that ROM. I was excited to try this so downloaded the 2.10.19 and the ROMOPTIONS. Since coming from a different ROM I wiped everything, then I flashed the ROM and then flashed the ROMOPTIONS to which it gave me an error saying it didn't install correctly. I am restoring my CNA and later this afternoon I will try again and if I get the same results will post the error it gave me. I also got pop up windows telling me that 'The program [Chinese letters] has stopped working but when I closed out of that box, everything appeared to be working followed by pop up window again, and repeat. Not sure what that was.

Also in the short time I was messing with it, I noticed the MMS app didn't auto rotate yet either. US Cellular user here .
[Motorola Photon 4G] Cyclonesrule91:
OK, I just tried flashing the ROM again. I did a factory reset wiping everything. I then installed the 2.10.19 Rom and it said the update was successful. Then I flashed the ROMOPTIONS and picked CDMA with tweaks, main storage to external card, and chose the USCC fix and installed it. It takes me to the next screen where it says "The installation wizard has successfully installed MIUI.us RomOptions. Press Next to continue"

Down the page a bit under "Mount partition" it says.....

mount / data

Mount / cache

Mount / system

Under "Prop choices" it says.....

Install CDMA tweaked build.prop

Under "Storage Edits" it says...

Use SD as Primary Storage

Install USSC Eri fix

But under "Finish Customization" it says......

Config Permission

set_perm: some changes failed

Then it says to hit next and it takes me to the next screen where it I choose "reboot" and hit next. I select it and it takes me back to the recovery menu.

Under rebooting...

E:Error In /sdcard/MIUI.us_2.10.19-ROMOPTIONS-sunfire.zip

(Status 0)

Installation aborted.

Any suggestions??? I hope what I typed helps
[Motorola Photon 4G] MIONS:
same with me and also the theme engine dosent work after choosing theme nothing happens
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Are you choosing a V4 theme? 75% of the themes in the MIUI Theme app are GB. If you pick one of those, nothing will happen, as they are not set up for the proper values to theme the rom...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
ROMOptions is fixed and up :D Same file name
[Motorola Photon 4G] Cyclonesrule91:
Well I did it again and it appeared that it installed correctly but I was unable to send MMS. I applied to USCC fix but the number that was suppose to change to 310120 is still the sprint number. I try to change that to the USCC number and save but it just sits there and thinks but won't save. So I figured I'd mess with it later and went to the home screen and it keep getting little black pop up windows that say 1 of 3 messages about either MIUI.us, {Chinese letters} or Root browser Lite has been grainted superuser permissions for the interactive shell. every 1-2 seconds the next one comes up. Also, running the rom I keep gettin a white box popup saying "Unfortunately {bunch of chinese letters) has stopped working".

I did a full wipe.

I flashed to 2.10.19

I flashed the ROMOPTIONS that replaced the one I was using.

Hope this helps and thanks for the work you do
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
That number doesn't make any difference :P
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Check around in the settings for the carrier. There are a LOT of options in there for different CDMA settings....I know that those can affect MMS...gotta play around with em until you get just the right setting.

Believe me, MIUI has become a bit of a pain in the butt as of latelt with all this. I'm still trying to find where this is being messed up, but without source, it's really tough...
[Motorola Photon 4G] bytethegroove:
"that" number points to the appropriate apn in apns-config.xml if the other number is in place, it will never find the USCC apn

---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 PM ----------

I too installed the update, and mms didnt work for me unless I applied the workaround I posted a page or so back, then mms sends and recieves just fine, however apns are still empty (which doesnt make sense, since I cant put my user and pass in the apn???) but it works so i dont question it,,,,

however I did notice the new update did break some of my theme....(the buuf theme thats fully v4 compliant...)

lockscreen icons changed to default, and a few other issues....however I didnt apply it as a new theme, i updated with that theme already applied....

I restored back to last version...just so i can continue adding to my theme....everything else seem to be working

Never mind
[Motorola Photon 4G] NishantM:
Noticed today that I have lost root access after updating to the latest version. Titanium Backup gives the following error
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
Try reading this post. Its in the CM10 thread but should still work for you :)

Lemme know if it does either way!
[Motorola Photon 4G] NishantM:
Trying now. Will update this post eventually.

Got a bootloop. Maybe because I didn't wipe cache/dalvik. Wiping cache/dalvik now.

That worked. But I now have two root mangers i.e. supersu and Permission Manager. Can I get rid of any one of them by deleting the apk from /system/app?

--

I'm getting reboots as soon as lockscreen is shown after booting up. This has started happening after updating the above superuser fix. I'm reverting to the older version of the ROM for time being.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Can't do that...MIUI uses its own SU setup. He needs to go into the Permissions app and turn on SU. In MIUI, it comes as OFF from default. Once turnedon, he'll have root :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] cpfeifer:
I flashed 2.10.19 also lost root. It is enabled in permission I even toggled it to make sure. Still no root. I then flashed 2.10.12 back without wiping system and problem persists.

I'm about to they flashing 2.10.12 and wiping system that should give me a clean start.

Edit: after wiping system and flashing the last version I have root back. Definitely something breaking it and its something new cause flashing previous version didn't fix it I had to wipe system before flashing.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MIONS:
Best life i ever had thanks bill
[Motorola Photon 4G] cpfeifer:
Ok guys I'm having quite a bit of an issue. Let me start from the beginning.

Yesterday I was using RSD 5.5 to SBF back to stock 2.3.4 and was planning on unlocking, and flashing back to the newest MIUI hoping to cure any issues I was having with SU not working on newest versions.

During the SBF flash my battery died, or at least I believe this was what happened, it just failed, and couldn't boot anymore. Error was "Failed to boot 4[enter]Starting RSD Mode[enter]Battery too low to flash" and it wouldn't connect to RSD Lite 5.5.

Finally today I went to a USCC store and swapped my battery for a different Electrify battery because it would not charge it would just that same message anytime it was plugged in.

After getting the battery and attempting to SBF again everything seemed to be successful. It got all the way through several reboots, and said "Please power your phone on manually" but it was still at the Moto screen so I pulled the battery and turned it on. It booted up to stock 2.3.4, although after a very long time (10-15 mins).

I then SBF'd the pudding unlocked bootloader, and then used Fastboot to erase recovery, and flash CWM. At this point I thought I was good. I then flashed MIUI 2.10.19 which was successful, then I flashed the 2.10.19 ROMOptions aroma installer, and the touch screen did not work at all so I used the buttons to go through the menu's.

Selected SDCard as the SDcard, and a few other options including "Use this if USCC" option. Then during the installation I got the dreaded "set_perm: ...." error and rebooted and it sat at the Motorola M screen indefinitely.

I then pulled the battery and restored a CWM backup of 2.10.12 that is fairly old and it booted up and I was able to restore a Titianium Backup that I pulled 2 days ago.

I can not flash any aroma installers at this point. Neither ROMOptions for the newest version, OR the 3rd version of the JB Options Chooser. Currently it would seem that I am only able to restore this backup and anything I flash will hang or error out with "set_perm" issues.

Any ideas would help. Normally I would just SBF back to stock and start over but it would seem that doesn't fix the issue.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I need the set_perm that is failing for your device. Without that, I'm just guessing...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
New Build is UP!

Need to follow these instructions to the T if you're CDMA.

1) Place ROM on Phont storage

2) Reboot to recovery

3) Make a Nandroid Backup

4) Wipe

5) Flash rom

6) Reboot to Phone (DO NOT FLASH GAPPS YET)

7) Skip the setup steps until you get to main screen

8) Go to Options

9) Go to Mobile Networks

10) Choose Choose Network type (it is the bottom option on that screen)

11) Select Automatic

12) You should have service and 3G now

13) NOW, reboot to recovery and flash gapps

14) Enjoy :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] cpfeifer:
I think I'm just going to try the below before I recreate the set_perm failure. I'll report back tmrw.

MIUIAndriod - Has no issues with the permission

if i install MIUI.us 2.10.26 it has permission issues but if i install MIUIAndriod 2.10.26 it works great...... but i did wipe the system before installing the rom......
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I don't get what you mean...
[Motorola Photon 4G] ashhanlove:
if i install MIUI.us 2.10.26 it has permission issues but if i install MIUIAndriod 2.10.26 it works great...... but i did wipe the system before installing the rom......
[Motorola Photon 4G] cpfeifer:
I'm getting "Invalid MD5 hash code" when trying to download anything from your goo.im account Th3Bill.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bray424:
Ok just so I'm clear, when you say "gapps" do you mean the standard gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip package at goo.im, the Options Chooser v3 rom, or different MIUI-specific gapps package like we were using in May?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Any gapps...be it in a gapp zip or chooser :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
How are you trying to download it?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
which recovery are you using? I tested both roms before uploading them...I'm beginning to think it's something with the individual recoveries
[Motorola Photon 4G] bray424:
I had that and it was just a bad file copy from desktop to sdcard, redownloading directly to phone worked.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cpfeifer:
Through GooManager. That is what is saying the md5 is invalid not recovery. It won't download because it says invalid hash.

I didn't copy it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I'll have to take a better look at it tonight. It's really weird that it would be giving that response, as it's not like it's downloading from an alternate site...LOL
[Motorola Photon 4G] cpfeifer:
Yea I have no idea. And no GooManager is the only way to even get that far. All browsers (I've tested opera mobile, miui stock, and chrome) all just keep refreshing the download page on goo.im no matter what.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
hmm....I'm not sure on this one. I'll have to try putting the regular Goomanager app into the build sometime...
[Motorola Photon 4G] cpfeifer:
When you use your daughters photon do you ever download through the browser from goo.im?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bray424:
dunno if it was intentional but ro.telephony.default.network=4 snuck back in, had to change it to telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=1 and wipe to get cellular service working
[Motorola Photon 4G] ashhanlove:
I am using TWRP recovery......
[Motorola Photon 4G] Demonlinx:
If I am using the most current TWRP recovery that i downloaded and flashed via the goo mobile app will this do all the things necessary. Is Th3Bill's recovery flashable over the TWRP recovery I have now?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
You didn't follow instructions. If you follow my instructions I posted, you don't need to do that, and you will have cell service and apns
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Yes it is...it's not touch, but it's really nice
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
THESE are the PROPER instructions for service/apns. No need to edit build.prop
[Motorola Photon 4G] EgOrus:
Does anyone know how can I use volume rocker wake option, maybe some tweak or file replacements? maybe I need recompile frameworks or other files and change this option in xml, anyone know something about that? I have to go back from every new JB release to last ICS build where this options exist in settings.

I try to change Generic.kl, just add "wake" flag to volume keys, reboot, but there is no luck.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bray424:
Actually I think I followed them TOO closely, as you never said when to flash the romoptions file, so I just flashed the base rom, booted and set the network settings exactly like you said, rebooted and flashed gapps. Then when I couldn't get cell working, changed build.prop, wiped data, and it's been great ever since.

Originally before I saw the instructions I tried flashing the romoptions file after the core file, but the installation aborted and said it couldn't properly fix permissions. Even tried flashing your recovery and got the same error as when I did it from twrp.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mambaram:
Hi Th3Bill , thank you for all your hard work, in all miui rom's I find two issues gets no attention and no answer, can you pls if you get time to look at it:

1- Call recording in this Rom, it record very well but we cannot play it, can you tell as how can we play it or any appl can play it or fix it.

2- The face lock in screen lock choices is a good appl, but it does not work, I get error (Unfortunately, Face Unlock has stopped.) can you pls look at it.

Other than that, this Rom is a very good one. Thanks to you.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
would need to wipe cache and data after you do any edit like that so that it will reflect.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Which carrier are you on? romoptions has been updated to a new setup, so it shouldn't have those issues anymore.
[Motorola Photon 4G] krish_nank:
Hi @ Th3bill I am having same issue last ROM options works fine with latest build , I mean GSM works fine but some issue like permission and themes doesn't change. New rpm options not changing to GSM any help?

[Motorola Photon 4G] couponfork:
With the latest build, I followed all the directions and every time my phone turns off, I have to go back in and set Mobile Network to automatic. Also my theme from the last build no longer works.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MIONS:
i have edited the settings to have volume rocker wake any one want it
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I am working on making that permanent from the start
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Ok....I'm going to use this thead for both MIUIAndroid and MIUI.us builds now. So, when providing feedback, be sure to say which one you're using.

That being said, 2.11.9 of MIUIAndroid is UP. I'm waiting for the files for the Toolbox to do MIUI.us

The files are now located on SourceForge, so you'll need to look in the OP for the links.

Options Chooser has also been updated to the latest Gapps.

MIUI.us

Check em out.

For those of you on CDMA, I think I finally have the signal persistency issue corrected for this build. That being said, ANYONE using CDMA is encouraged to FULL WIPE before this flash. ​
[Motorola Photon 4G] humanbean:
I keep getting a pop up in Miui that says permissions manager has stopped. Any ideas?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Which build (us or android)? Also, have you gone into the permissions app and started root access? If you don't do that, then you'll get that error all day...
[Motorola Photon 4G] humanbean:
It is the Muiu.us build. I did do the root access, but will try again tomorrow.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bray424:
Seems like the earlier fix of restoring the settings for Permission Manager works for that, but I'm still getting MIUIHome crashes left and right.

edit: ok i tried to be a bit more informative than "crashes left and right" but i remembered that all the logcat apps i normally use havent worked since i switched to miui and / or jb (not sure which). how do i go about getting a logcat on this rom?

edit 2: i tried to isolate the issue by doing a full wipe, flashing the rom and nothing else. any time i try to install an app, be it through market, sideloading through file manager, or restoring a backup, i get a message saying miuihome has crashed. even if i turn off force close messages in dev options, any time i install anything, halfway through the process it just goes back to a blank desktop then reloads the miui launcher. cant test anymore because for the time being i just went back to my 10.26 backup
[Motorola Photon 4G] krish_nank:
Same problem here ,this was same in 11.16 over too but in 11.23 permission app also force closing
[Motorola Photon 4G] bray424:
To fix Permission Manager FC:

On your current older rom, go into the MIUI Backup App and backup the setting in the attached screenshot. Wipe your phone, flash your new rom, and when you're up and running, go into the MIUI Backup app again and restore that setting. IIRC, it has something to do with the language the setting is stored in, but I could just be talking out of my ass.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Is everyone having issues with Home crashing? I need to know if this needs fixing or if it could be due to data being kept from a preious build...

This rom is undergoing a LOT of changes under the hood, so it could be causing problems for the updates being "dirty" flashed....I don't have an old version to flash (I nandroid my daughter's PA that she's using-it's her fav, then install fresh full wipe).
[Motorola Photon 4G] inimitableac:
I tried .us with a full wipe (actually wiped twice the second time) however no matter what permissions manager force closes home constantly crashes and the lag is terrible
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Hmm...I'll have to work on it more for this coming week. I only had a quick chance to play with it.

Have you checked out the MIUIAndroid variant? I'm curious to see the feedback on that one. I am thinking that the Toolbox might be causing the borks. It has been problematic in the past, unfortunately.

If you can give me some feedback on that one, I'd really appreciate it.
