Ok for some reason, I can not download anything from the google play store using 3G, I do not have Wifi (yes, I checked to make sure UPDATE over Wi-Fi only is disabled). Am i suppose to disable or enable anything else?

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 PM ----------

Also, is there a way to remove the Sprint Banner on the top left?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
Trying to answer question from memory so:

LED-seems to turn of prematurely around 90% even though still charges, so if plugged in at that level wont show the led

kobridge-looks like there might be issues going on with that and video playback, over on chris41g kernel thread, so i'd hold off on that, and im gonna look over the tweaks in build.prop as well.

3g-this seems to take forever to reconnect if you were previously on wifi and turn it off, i have experienced this and another user as well, if you disconnect wifi, disable data and re-enable data, that cured it for me.

and use miui toolbox to change that upper left of the screen to anything youd like text or images, there is a thread for more images in the android theme section here on xda.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jocelyn:
Thanks for LED problem explanation, but what about inability to turn on the phone from off state?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ohsomomo:
can someone show me the way to download miui 2.7.13 plz, thx
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
I got it to work by doing this, in wifi tether settings (not the built in hotspot) select "generic ICS" for the device profile, then either for setup method, but that worked for me. Starts with no errors and works like a champ

I loooooooove iPhone battery life. I can charge it to 100% and unplug itvat midnight, check it at 7 am when I wake up and it's still at 100%. Gs2 would of lost at least 15%. And I can use it all day without worrying if I have a charger handy. Lol

I had built in tether working on my evo on miui gingerbread. And wifi tether has always worked on v4 for me with the epic touch. just have to change devices profile .

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------

Should be able to go into miui toolbox under status bar mods and change the custom carrier label option

Have you tried flashing from el26? Lot of problems arise still for some when you flash from el29, it could be your issue

sent from my SGS2 running AOKP, eh...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
You guys are getting good battery? :/ In 5 hours I'm already at 40%...and screen on was maybe 1-2 hours. Gonna wait til it cycles but this is kinda disappointing compared to what others are getting.

Oh and Captain, have you looked into the Placebo tweaks by phaker? Those seem really good and maybe you should implement them into the ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jocelyn:
Yep that's what it was. I have no idea why I used EL29 instead of EL26. Anyway, Thank You :)

Haven't been running it long enough to give you my opinion, but wanted to carry this over from last page :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zagazeta:
I'm pretty sure this ROM bricked my phone.

Here's what I did.

Prior to flash.

AOKP (Latest version)

Odined to El26 stock kernel

Flashed Caulkins format all

Flashed MIUI (latest version listed)

Robooted

Got android.core process stopped (or whatever everyone else is getting)

Held down power button pressed reboot and accidentally hit the "recovery" option

Now stuck at "Samsung Galaxy SII" boot logo.

Can NOT get into download mode or recovery.

Don't have USB jig

Any help would be appreciated. :eek:

Also, I don't know about you guys, but my Phone seems to be idling at around 600 MB of RAM Used... that's a lot higher than other it was on other ROMs from what I've experienced. Is this a normal MIUI thing or is my phone just acting abnormal? It's also really hot too...

Edit: I just reboot and the battery went from 40% to 15%... yay -_-

Edit2: Further analysis shows that my phone refuses to go into Deep Sleep. Anyone else getting this?

Well grr... now I'm just frustrated :( I love MIUI but the first day experience has been pretty bad. Bad battery drain, very hot phone, no Deep Sleep, etc.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KELO777:
Can somebody help on this ?

On my signal bar i got 3g and a 1x bar how do i fix this thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
I think this question has been asked on all 26 pages of this forum and 200 something on the last forum, don't mean to sound like a jerk, but try reading or searching the forum. Miui has a dual signal bar. It shows 1x even tho your getting 3G. Known miui problem it happened when they added 4g. You can miui toolbox and change it to a single signal bar. But it won't show any signal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Correction you possibly bricked your phone. There is a disclaimer in the OP.

Have you tried holding volume up and power to get it to reboot again?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
If it at least attempts to turn on I don't necessarily think its bricked. I would try pulling the battery and letting it sit for a few minutes to drain any residual power, then re insert the battery and try either download mode or recovery again, holding the buttons until you actually see the screen pop up. Wish I could help more
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zagazeta:
Do you think a USB jig would help?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Venomusdragon:
Can't really comment on the rest but your drop from 40% to 15 is common, its a Samsung bug, been a problem on all roms across the board for the s2

sent from my SGS2 running AOKP, eh...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Venomusdragon:
Try pulling your battery for 10 minutes letting your phone discharge completely then try booting into download mode again man, that sucks but hope this helps

COOL GOOD LOOKING OUT jeffm922
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zagazeta:
I know I read the disclaimer. I know what I got my self into. :D

Yes I have. Nothing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Battery pull time, there is a lot of folks here that responded to help so lets hope this goes good. Reply fast lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zagazeta:
Lol its been out for about 5 minutes now.

Hopefully it works.

If i go through ADB could I force it into download mode?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
Lol I noticed that. I replied and as soon as I hit refresh there was another page full of replies. Now that's customer service :cowboy:

---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------

It's worth a try. Plug the phone in with USB and turn it on, if e computer recognizes it type " adb reboot download" ( I think that's it anyways) and see what it does or try holding the buttons and then putting in the battery
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zagazeta:
Ok leaving the battery out for 10 minutes didn't work (recovery or download mode)

Time for some ADB.

Thanks for the command.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
Ok, I feel like a complete n00b but I have tried everything and cant get a clean install. I have wiped and formated my phone, sd card everything and no matter what it always will FC with MIUI....stock works fine. It almost appears no radio/modem is getting flashed or something.

Any other ideas? I'm pretty much out of options. Is this some sort of "soft brick" or something? This was the same case with the last build too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
What force closes are you getting? Have you tried flashing 2.7.20 on top of the earlier 2.6.15 build? That seems to stop the android.core force closes

Good luck. I had something similar yesterday where my phone wouldn't boot into recovery after flashing 2.7.20 and pulling the battery after experiencing force closes. It eventually went in DL mode after a couple of minutes though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
Every force close known to man! I'm going to give that a try now. Thanks for the response!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
Wow lots of stuff going on at once here but I'll try to help:

If you are getting to the logo I'm confident you are not at brick state, I have had this as well, just pull the battery and go into recovery mode after giving it a moment. Flash EL26 kernel and then flash a new kernel, install, another rom (j/k) or whatever from that state but as mentioned earlier use el26. you will get the triangle but that is easily fixed.

Tyzing, I installed both ways and got this version working, however, i do know if coming from any other rom including ics use the second method, i wish i knew why that is but its working, oh make sure not to wipe anything at all when upgrading from 2.6.15. If flashing over last weeks version i did that as well without wiping anything again and went just fine. my main app that fc on me was titanium bakcup but reinstalled it and is ok.

If anyone has gone to the newest kernels RC1_b3-0723 video playback is not working. I flashed back to the included kernel RC2_5-0718 and videos play. I also read on the OT that wiping cache/dalvik can help but it didn't. haven't tired a reinstall yet with flashing b3 but im holding off on that for now. if i need youtube ill just odin back to 0718. just wanted to let you alls know :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ross4747:
Fixed it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Venomusdragon:
Dammit man, this update sounds pretty solid... I just got too impatient waiting for it and switched back to aokp, pretty sure tomorrow I'm gonna flash miui again lol... thanks again for your effort and time with this rom man

sent from my SGS2 running AOKP, eh...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zagazeta:
Finally got it in boot loader mode via adb. Thanks guys
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
Woohoo saved. So you couldn't get into DL mode at all through Volume Down and Power? What did you end up doing to get into bootloader through adb? Just wondering in case this happens to me in the future.

---------

Btw, I was having horrible battery life and overheating yesterday, but after charging to full my battery life rocks :) Gonna cycle one more time before I confirm how good it is but I'm impressed so far.

FYI, I also installed an App Drawer (not a Launcher) called AltDrawer so I can see all of my apps easily. If anyone else likes having app drawers, check this out.

One last thing - if I go to CPU Settings through the MIUI Toolbox, my phone freezes before I'm even able to tweak the governors or overclock/underclock. Anyone else get this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
That's gonna happen I think due to gs2 being exynos processor and not what that program is written for. Tegrak, setcpu, and antutu for your CPU tweaking.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rudyrude432:
Not to get off the subject, but either sprints 4g is weak or 3g is pretty quick. But with this ROM 3g is more dependable than Wimax. With me staying on 3g my phone saves way more battery than my phone trying to make steady, solid connection to 4g. Kind of weird because I thought with Wimax it would work the phone processor less, not true at all. The phone works harder to make/keep a connection. Either way that goes to show that to save battery you must try out a few things according to your coverage area and a mix of kernels/modems and CPU settings as well as phones settings like syncs and brightness. Just trying to kick some knowledge around for some.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
Can anyone confirm or deny that we can flash this latest ROM (after a clean complete wipe) via EL26 CWM recovery without issues?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
El26 is the recovery you should be on yes. You can Odin it to flash pretty much any rom. See the OP flashing instructions also there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffm922:
Sweeeet glad to hear it. Was it e command I mentioned?

Off topic, is anyone else's xda all funny looking?( I'm on the forum site)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
Ok, my ODIN flash count is now 35 and STILL cannot get MIUI to load without an immediate FC...still appears to be not flashing the modem and I've tried flashing on top of both 6.15's as well.

A beer is on me for the first person to solve this! Haha, no really...beer on me :) haha

EDIT: this might be driver related. I thought the proper drivers were installed with KIES but I'll find out for sure in a few

EDIT EDIT: Nope :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ericvbp21:
they built is working pretty good for me so far. i just have one concern. how do i get a permanent fix for the Phantom voicemail?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
What modem should I be using...I think that's the source of my problems posted above.

Obviously I'm trying anything and everything to get my phone working again :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hooover:
...Modem should not flash with the ROM...I had the same issues, go back to a stock build and start from there using the second set of instructions, my guess is you already have...I used mobile odin to flash the kernels...

Maybe this will help?

I can confirm this too... Also If anyone is looking to flash this rom please follow these steps. I have repeated the process at least 10 times:

1. Odin EL26 repacked CWM 5

2. Wipe using Calkulin's_FORMAT_ALL.

3. Flash MIUI 2.6.15

4. After flashing let it reboot into MIUI 2.6.15

** THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT**

5. Then Odin Chris41G AOSP CWM5

6. And Finally flash MIUI 2.7.13 v4

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rudyrude432:
Yes mine connects
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rudyrude432:
Hey ty try flashing the ff18 zip here http://kernelrepo.chris41g.org/modemsite/?startFolder=\ICS\ZIP if you think the modem is your prob. There's also a tar file if you prefer Odin. Reset that flash counter as well with triangle away from the play store.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
Anon9mouz I was having the hardest time with this port. I read Brad Heffernan post on miui.us he had the same issue with this build as well. He grabbed the official ports off of miuiandroid and started hodge-podging the the pieces into his build til it got stable. I did everything with this build except for the official ports (i really banged my head then :) ) but taking the systemui from them helped a lot. I also saw that this build (official) has voice activated camera and looks (ui) amazing so imma try to figure that out next.

Tyzing: wish I could help you out more. I just reinstalled this build again late last night cuz im getting the no videos playing with chris newest kernel (still didnt cure it for me, but included kernel works) and had no issue with install :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Anon9mouz:
This weeks build for me is a no go **** closing out I think ima rebuild it

And as for s3 no boot at least my gnex boots but I'm rocking last weeks until I can figure out which I might do

For step 5 why can't we just use EL26 CWM again?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CaptainMorgan:
Boot into 2.6.15 let it settle, you could go back to el26, but i did this and flashed 2.7.20 even this way without wiping cache or dalvik and all is well. i guess from my feeling if it aint broke dont fix it :silly:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hooover:

Sadly enough on the step of flashing 6.15 and reboot I still get the FC's so I'm unable to continue with the other steps :(

Crazy stuff going on here. Seems no matter what build I try its the same result and getting FC after FC....but only on MIUI

Maybe I'll give CM a shot to see if that does it too....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KingRedHot:
Maybe you should try wiping and flashing from a different recovery. Which one are you using?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kryptonite16:
That was happening to me too. Its no big deal just try the alternate flashing method in the op.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] matt8107t:
Everything is working flawlessly on this rom except that themes won't apply for me. Any one have any advice on fixing it. They appear in the theme app and apply but no changes. Tia
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] likeurface:
I saw this in another thread about miui and it worked for me. You need to go into /system and make a folder called "theme"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rudyrude432:
Data/system then create a new folder and name it theme
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] danyelunn:
Thanks

Thanks for making this MIUI build a reality. My hat goes off to the Cyanogen and AOKP teams as well. However, in my opinion this MIUI ROM is superior. Everything works flawlessly. The task switcher is beautiful; the customization options work great (I personally have a Meego theme applied). Battery life is amazing with the default kernel. I'm averaging a 1.5% per hour consumption while idle- around 3% - 4% per hour via normal screen/phone use. All of that functionality built into a beautiful, silky-smooth, responsive UI. It's just great.

Thanks again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tyzing:
Ok, I'm now trying AG Recovery and every time I flash a file its giving me the error of "assert failed: getprop ".ro.product.device" and 50 times repeated. What could this mean? I'm now 2 for 2 on getting that with two different versions trying to be flashed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] matt8107t:
I did that part and have themes in the folder already. They show up in the theme app, when I try to apply one it says successful but makes no changes.

Is there a fix for the theme manager force closing? And I can't get any video to play back. I'd appreciate the help. Besides that great Rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
So now that there is a source kernel I think it's time to try miui again (its been over a year). Just one question, does 4g wireless tethering work?

Any major issues I should be aware of? Between the different threads and constant updates it is hard to keep track when you are on the outside looking in.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rudyrude432:
You tube won't work for me. Hmm
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rudyrude432:
4g is a go and wireless tether works better when I put the device profile on galaxy nexus cdma. So yes and yes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Venomusdragon:
If you look back a page or 2 the capin said that video playback is borked with some kernals, if you have flashed a different than the one included this could be your issue

From completely Stock ICS do i need to ODIN to GB first before flashing ICS MIUI to prevent bricking?

or just Root/CWM/ flash without wiping?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Noodles_44:
I've been keeping up with this thread for a while, and used MIUI on my Evo as my daily. Really want to make the jump with the ET4G but the flash process sounds like a lot of work with a lot of risk. Appreciate the work that Cap is putting in. Hoping for an easier and more reliable process in the coming weeks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wilderckw:
I got it to download but it just force closes over and over and won't fully boot up. Any ideas
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drunkensunday:
I have an idea. TRY ACTUALLY READING THE OP!!! :mad:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
I'm a real jackass. I was finally ready to flash this and I made the careless of mistake of flashing it from Rujelus' recovery. Got sloppy. I'm lucky it didn't brick. It actually booted up and was just FC like a mofo'. From there I tried to long press the power button to get into recovery but it wouldn't work. Had to use SFHUB stock rooted EL29.

Going to do the whole thing over as per instruction in OP. I'm hoping that I won't have to flash an older version of MIUI to get this to work...going to follow the OP steps to an exact T and then hold my breath.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] matt8107t:
I flashed using the alt method of flashing the older version first and not a single force close been running for a few days now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
I can confirm, that for me, the method in the OP does not work. Looks like I will need an older version. I got FC like crazy and couldn't do a thing. Also, I thought this rom has Cris' recovery built in but I couldn't access it. I had to use SFHUB el29 just to get the phone up again. This latest rom is supposed to have a recovery accesible by holding VOLUME UP + POWER?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cknuth:
If I might ask what is the name of that theme in your screenshots? I have searched but failed to find it on droidviews or Google.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
If you are getting force closes, that means that YOU NEED TO FLASH 2.6.15 BEFORE FLASHING 2.7.20.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asianizeboy:
Can we do this on the phone itself or do we need to edit it through the computer? Any steps to do this? Thanks in advance.
