Goldcard is needed for Roms that have locked bootloader/SPL

examples of this locked bootloader SPLs are 4XX, 5.0/5.1 ect

These dont allow u to flash custom rom or replace them

U have to first check yr bootloader . it has to be 1) supported under DFT RSPL/HSPL and 2) should be below version 4xxx

if it is, then u can go ahead and use the DFT RSPL/HSPL and then once installed that u can install a custom rom
[General Questions and Answers] zozoquete:
Hi!

I'm zozoquete! and i have this question!

I want to know what's the best kernel for battery life on my i9003! I got MIUI 2.3.7 GingerBread, and my battery life it's around 8-9 hours without wifi!

And i saw several people that their batteries last for two days!

I got vurrutKer! so i want to know the best battery life kernel for I9003!

Thanks a lot!
[General Questions and Answers] MissionImprobable:
I'd check your phone forum to find out. As far as MIUI versions, Galnet 2.2.10 gave me the best battery life and as I have a Motorola it was still on the stock kernel.
[General Questions and Answers] zozoquete:
Really?! do you have the link to download the kernel?! How much time does your battery last?! and how much with wi fi activated?!

Can my I9003 support that galnet kernel?!

Thanks!!!
[General Questions and Answers] MissionImprobable:
You don't need the kernel. Just see if there's a port of Galnet MIUI for your device. It's the most stable Rom I've run to date and had the best battery life as well.
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
If you want the galnet Rome check the galnet site. As their Roms are banned from XDA.
[General Questions and Answers] zozoquete:
What do you mean that Galnet Rom is banned?! Is there a problem?! And with that Rom how much time the battery last?!
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
Galnet roms have been banned from XDA for a long time, I will not talk about why. As for the battery life. I couldnt say. I know better then running an MIUI rom no matter who it is from
[General Questions and Answers] zozoquete:
I think that Rom stole private data?!

Another option for a Great Gingerbread MIUI with an awesome battery life?! 'Cause i tried SetCPU and it still the same!
[General Questions and Answers] zozoquete:
Hey MissionImprobable can you give a link to that Galnet Rom for I9003?! Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaase! And someone tell me why was that Rom banned!

Known Issues / Bugs

General

Settings > About Phone has some strange graphical glitches and is missing baseband info Fixed in v0.2 Hotfix 1

Settings > About Phone > Status causes FC Fixed in v0.2 Hotfix 1

Some minor color issues with the new dark theme. Nothing too serious. Work-in-progress.

Phone/Contacts

Pressing "Set up my profile" in Contacts results in an FC. Don't click it :) Fixed in v0.60

Browser (Web)

Searching from the address bar doesn't work (must visit google.com manually) Fixed in v0.31 (MIUI Browser working yay)

Some UI strings are wrong, such as 'Remember Username/Password' when logging in (I think that's what it is). Just press back twice to get away from that if it scares you. I use Dolphin HD browser myself so I couldn't be bothered trying to fix it.

Media (Audio/Video)

Default SMS tone is "silent" - MIUI bug. Remember to change it manually on a fresh install. Fixed since v0.60

Some strange pops and glitches when AudioFocus is dropped (sound stops playing), not sure how to fix that one. Fixed in v0.31.

Can't set custom tones from SDCard - known MIUI issue. Set with ES File Explorer (select "Others" when choosing the tone > ES File Explorer > browse to the file). Alternatively, push the ogg/mp3 file to /system/media/audio/whatever/
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Ringtone/Notification Packs

All non-default MIUI tones were ripped in order to get the maximum free space for /system to give to /data. In order to use these, you must extract to your SDCard. MIUI still has a bug that doesn't show custom tones on SDCard, the way I do it is to install ES File Explorer then when changing sounds select "Other > ES File Explorer" and manually browse for the audio file you want. I have only tested this method as working, other File Explorer apps might not assign the file properly (and it goes quiet).

- Missing MIUI ringtones/notifications - Mediafire

Default ringtones have been restored in v0.50. Remember - if you want to set custom tones from SDCard, use ES File Explorer!

thanks for dis rom
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
No problem, I missed MIUI based on CM so I could mod it with more CM features, so I spent many days straight getting it going....

But I still need people to test if phone call works! As soon as it does I can work on CDMA patch so more users can test.
[Xperia Play Android Development] d_zen:
Testing now:D

UPDATE 1: Just installed, (Used the FXP RC 2 kernel, figured it should work like the one provided by you) it booted fine and is sooo smooth, but one problem, I couldn't get signal and settings.apk crashed when trying to opening mobile networks, trying with your kernel now...

UPDATE 2: Exactly the same with your kernel, no signal and crashing when opening settings.apk
[Xperia Play Android Development] solomon4400:
Ok im definitely testing
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:

No not yet. It's being worked on still, as the Status section says (it's in blue)

Damn it, I knew it was too good to be true to work straight away lol.... OK I'm working on it non-stop (apart from sleep) there'll be a patch soon.

EDIT: OK I found it, my hack to fix the crash due to disabled proxy sensor in CM9 kernel is what is causing phone app to crash. I need to find a better way to do this hack. Hotfix soon.

Thank you, it's a cool emblem!
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Hotfix for v0.2 is up, tested it by calling my phone and it works :) Just install over the top of v0.2. You know it sucks, dunno if it's an MIUI thing but when I call it, the phone I ring from rings for a second and a half before the screen even appears on the Play. It also happened on the X10, maybe it's an MIUI thing or this ROM just needs more work.

FYI, I had to update my kitchen. APKTool 1.4.3 is broken for apps from this ROM so I compile Phone.apk with baksmali 1.3.3, but baksmali 1.3.3 is broken for framework jar's so I have to use APKTool 1.4.3. :eek:
[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
Does the same thing on sony based roms when I tried to mess with them. Def want to test this when I can.
[Xperia Play Android Development] tempest918:
I tried flashing it but I'm just hanging up on the kernel splash screen. Could it be since I'm on an r800at? CM9 RC2 works fine on my phone. I wiped data/cache, not sure what's going on.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
It might be. I think the R800at is the same as the R800a, and I run an R800a (was Telstra Australia branded, their 3G bands are different). All I can suggest is to move the Phone.apk from the hotfix into the original v0.2 ZIP and start from scratch.... but maybe it is an R800at issue in which case I'll need a logcat. EDIT: If you can't even get to logcat then it's a kernel issue.

Fixing compass (orientation) is really annoying me, it seems to work fine in MIUI Compass and GPS Status but does all retarded crap in Google Maps.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
I was dreading that.

The MIUI framework is "stock-like". Unlike the newest CM9 builds, the telephony framework doesn't have different classpaths for gsm and cdma. Well it does, but it's nowhere near as extensive as what CM9 telephony has.

Still, it's not even getting that far ATM. If I see a logcat error related to telephony crash I could work on it, but right now it's just a strange permission denied issue.
[Xperia Play Android Development] game_guy:
One failed. Same issues, shows that I had service, then goes away. Dialer still crashes. I'll replace the Phone.apk but I don't think that'll really accomplish much without working data. Though I'll let you know if the crashes stop.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Damn it, it happened to me once but never again after deleting data. Can I get a logcat?

@game_guy, I just realized your logcat is only partial. To work on CDMA I will need a full logcat from boot.

EDIT: Please try these commands in adb to fix Play Store FC's and Settings > Apps > any app click FC's:

rm -f -R /data/com.google.android.*
rm -f -R /data/com.android.vending
rm -f -R /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk
reboot

I can't remember what the error I was getting was, but if it's the same then it's completely random and I have no idea why it's happening. But this fixed it. If it does for you let me know, and I will have to automate this process in the next version.
[Xperia Play Android Development] game_guy:
Did a logcat from boot. Replacing the Phone.apk from a CM9 build was a bad idea. It caused an endless supply of force closes.

Logcat:

Haven't looked over the logcat yet, but could not having complete calls to cdma in the smali be causing the permission error (check /etc/permissions for android hardware cdma)

[Xperia Play Android Development] xRegrets:
Edit: It opened once and force closes again. I'm not that good with adb. All I did was connected the device, ran adb devices ( to check the device) then adb root and adb shell before running the commands, is it correct?

Lol dud you could have said this thing crashes on absolutely everything... Market, dialer, when receiving messages. Is there any fix for this?!

I have an R800I btw so no confusion with the CDMA version.

Oh darn, didn't test all those out. Restoring backup now.
[Xperia Play Android Development] solomon4400:
that part is not necessary bro the man put in a lot of work in this rom and kernel so if thats how you show appreciation then your pretty much not welcome on xda developers because that type of sh!t aint tolerated.

and i understand same thing happen to me this morning but its dan he will get these things sorted asap man. im just saying please dont dog our devs because they do it for free ay.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Selim873:
So just a question, exactly HOW stable is the CDMA signal? When I tried 0.5, the phone activity always crashed, if I were to switch airplane mode on then off, I would get the same thing. Is that at least been confirmed fixed in 0.6, even though it still says partially working? The AOKP rom works perfectly with the CDMA patch and the one that comes with Glazed works too, which might be the same patch, just built into the AROMA installer.
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Think of this as the same state as the ics beta Sony released. Except cosmicdan is trying to fix it :P

My guess is that the framework files are screwy, as I've said before :P (which translates to a royal p.i.t.a. to fix)

Pax
[Xperia Play Android Development] Selim873:
Nice, can't wait until it's fixed! I've been seeing MIUI since the Froyo days. :) Never had a phone that had MIUI built for until now. :p
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
OK thanks. I've removed CDMA from the thread title while I try and fix it. I really wish MIUI was opensource... though what I'm doing now is decompiling the full zeus and zeusc CM9 ROM's and comparing the differences so that I can work on a patch specifically for this ROM.

Yeah that's right. See below.

Dunno what to say dood, you obviously did something wrong. Nope, I did something wrong. Thanks for the ungrateful and rude bug report :D See below.

Work in progress. Please wait for me to release a new patch to try.

OK, regarding the FC's. I have been running 0.60 myself for days and had no issues, but i realize the possibility that I may have done something on my phone that I forgot to put in my kitchen. So I've done a full wipe and reinstalled the 0.60 ZIP that I uploaded.

The FC's are caused by this same "Neither user 1001 nor current process has android.permission.DEVICE_POWER." error. I don't know how this happened but I am working on it 100% now and will release 0.61 soon.

EDIT: The bug is caused by APKTool 1.4.3 being so out-of-date. I have to manually encode/decode XML files. There will be a 0.61 patch shortly!

EDIT2: We can no longer code resource XML's with APKTool, the errors were caused by the Wifi Hotspot fix. Luckily because I'm so skilled I did it via hex editing the compiled resources. Damn!

EDIT3: FYI, the reason why it was working fine for me is a mystery. I am guessing that because I pushed the new framework with wifi hotpsot fix (i.e. the one causing FC's), it's corruption was being rejected by the dalvik VM so it was using the existing code from my cache. Regardless, 0.61 is being uploaded now and I've tested calls, SMS, Market, etc. there's no more errors. I'll post a reply when it's up to bump the thread, and we'll talk on CDMA next.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
OK, new version up. Tested, no more FC's :) If updating from 0.50, you might not need to Factory Reset - try it.

Now the patient CDMA testers.... please give me fresh logcats. From fresh boot of a fresh install and trying to make a call, without the patch. Then try the AtariiKeiranFTWCM9 patch, format cache, and get another logcat from boot all the way to trying to make another call.

I will be focusing on CDMA and fine-tweaking the dark theme (there are still quite a few minor dark text issues, nothing too bad just slightly difficult to see) from here on.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Zerobarat1:
I did wrong in being a douche bag bro and I'm sorry, you can report me if it will make you feel better. It's just that I felt a bit deceived seeing that in the first post everything works and when I tested it, it was all over the place :). But yeah mistakes like these can happen.

Good luck in your deving bro :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Its fine, my own fault for not testing from a fresh install :p but that was a first for me, i'm usually very careful and not rushed.

[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Hey cosmicdan, how much hackery is involved in phone.apk? (My guess is replacing it leads to FCs due to missing calls in framework, but it that would mean it would also be missing smali in there, too :( )

Pax

(Why I much prefer building from source, java == easier to manipulate :D)
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
The only smali hacks in Phone.apk are commenting - out the calls to check/set proxy sensor.

Very true, but MIUI is only partially opensource :( the official porting method (PatchROM) uses smali injections and uses an AOSP base, so using the CM9 base is what makes this project unique.

How about MIUI builds for a different phone with CDMA? I think MIUI is available for the CDMA Galaxy Nexus. I'll get some logcats ready in a bit. All of my friends just started their high school year today so I'll have some Android testing time before my first college semester. It's hard to test when I have texts flying all over the place!
