We are all optimistically waiting for the call quality fix... until then there's not any reason messing with this bad boy... unless you are okay making calls using the speaker phone or BT.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 0xD34D:
2.11.16 is up for grabs now. I was holding off since there was an issue with themes not applying and causing the Theme Manager to stall out. That problem has been solved now.

As for call quality, this issue is hit or miss. I personally have had good quality so supplying a fix is rather tough because of this. I've made attempts at it but I still hear people complaining and some that say it is good. There may be more to it than just adding some noise suppression code to the Phone.apk. Next up would be to check the framework and see if there is some changes that can be incorporated there to help out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] perknite:
Thanks, 0xD34D. Your hard work is greatly appreciated here. I guess I'll check out the new build and report my results.

Any way to unlock using the volume keys? I'm on the latest miui, 11/16, if I'm not mistaken.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] perknite:
OK, so the quality is still bad and is not affected in any way by installing a custom kernel (it has helped in previous versions).

Are there any particular logcats those of us with call quality issues can capture and upload (aside from making a call) that may help in figuring this thing out?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blackwing182:
no, logcat cant detect voice problems, and a kernel cant be help on that ether, the problem here is in how the rils interact with the audio libs and the phone, framework apps and probably but not posible, the radio.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sddurand:
Its interesting you have "good" call quality. Is it as good as a TW ROM? I have found the call quality usable but far from good. Both call recording and a VM recording of a call to myself are audible but sound terrible compared a stock ROM or CMX.

Is this what you experience as well or do you have perfect call quality? Note, calls using speaker phone sound the same on any ROM.

The code for noise suppression may be in the phone apk but I think something else is definitely missing.

I'm more than happy to help you test... Cheers.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] perknite:
I decided to give it another go. I'm really liking the latest release. Aside from the universal Google Voice bug, and the Hercules-specific bad voice quality, I'm really digging it. No SOD's or RR's. It seems very stable over the past two days. I also use bluetooth about 98% of the time, so the outgoing voice quality is not that big of a problem for me.

Edit***

If you want to install apps like 9s-weather, you will need to flash the latest JB gapps. Otherwise you will run into the dreaded incompatible app issue in the Play Store.

Is there any way to turn of hardware key lights with miui? I can't find an option anywhere.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] smokinjoe2122:
You MAY be able to disable them with programs like BLN Control. I use that app for the ICS version where the hardware lights don't really turn on. It will probably be a little trial and error. Some ROMS (I have no idea with this one) actually have a setting under display for the hardware lights also. Good Luck

I'm running my builds now for 2.11.30 and will have an update shortly. Been quite busy with my new project and a bit burned out on MIUI with all their changes. Stay tuned for an update and if a MIUI/AOSP hybrid ROM sounds like something you'd like to see, throw me a vote at http://rootzwiki.com/topic/36997-you-pick-the-winner-nexus-4-developer-contest/

To give you an idea of the progress here are some screenshots

Those are all using MIUI mtz themes and running in a modified version of CM10. More to come like lockscreens, tabbed status bar with toggles, modified dialer and much more.

Thanks for your support!

The call audio is great now (with the suggested kernel), but the classic >gingerbread echo is back. The only way to get rid of it is to remove your case. For those who don't use cases, you're golden!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] perknite:
I'm not having the issue (at least while applying entire themes). Try fixing permissions or re-flashing (clean flash) after deleting your miui folder on your SD card. Of course, if you have miui system backups or are simply not sure, backup your data first.

Edit: more info...

If you've downloaded themes and want to keep them, back them up before deleting the miui folder also. One or more may be corrupt, though, so don't restore them immediately after your re-flash (if wiping cache/dalvik and fixing permissions does not work).

Call audio is perfect with custom kernel. The person on the other and hears their own echo when you use a case (that decreases when you turn your volume down), but without a case call quality on both ends is perfect with the aforementioned custom kernel:D!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mattpedigo:
Oh well

Gave this another shot with the custom kernel and all seemed to be going pretty well. The call quality was acceptable, not great, with a very recognizable echo. I figured I'd test drive it a few days and get away from CM10.

Had a hard lock this morning when I woke up and a boot loop that took a battery pull, 3 finger recovery, and full wipe to get out of. Finally said screw it and recovered my CM10 installation.

I had it plugged into the wall last night and an alarm set and apparently, it gave out. I figured it has something to do with the custom kernel not being fully compatible with the t989. And yes, I did a full wipe, dalvik, etc... Even formatted the system.

I love MIUI but I guess I love my alarm clock more. Maybe we should grab whatever code is helping the call quality out of that kernel and merge it into a stock one.
