[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itschemistry:
I have a strange problem. My phone's ambient/proximity sensor seems to be glowing dim red all the time. its really visible in the dark. it only starts to glow when the phone has booted into android. during the booting it stays off.

I understand some people will think I am confusing the LED for a sensor but let me assure you thats not the case. I am actuallt talking about the sensor situated on the right side of the earpiece beside the "SAMSUNG"'s letter G.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terranoid:
Its from Viber. Uninstal it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itschemistry:
Thank You, That seems to fix the problem. However whenever I use the messaging app the dim red light comes on again.

Furthermore, Is this dangerous ? as I would just ignore it and keep using viber if its not a big deal.

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
Nothing dangerous, you will see the sensor light in messaging app because the very same is used for Smart call feature

Hi I have a kyocera Milano that I would love to root but can't seem to find ANY solution to do such.

Phone Specs:

Android 2.3.4

Model number: C5121

Software Version: ADD1015

Hardware Version: 0305

Baseband Version: ADD10

Kernal version: 2.6.35.7-perf drehg@ubuildserver3 #1 Mon Dec 12 17:56:45 PST 2011

Computer Specs:

2.2ghz Celeron 64-bit

2gb RAM

Windows 7 64-bit

Android SDK Installed

Phone drivers Installed

Adb for phone installed

-------------------------------------------------

Whenever I do a run of ZergRush I get this:

now when it goes to install android terminal and Root Explorer I get errors because they're already installed, but it still wouldn't root even before i had them installed.

I would love any help on how to root this, or at least a point in the right direction in doing this. I know no one has really had success with rooting the Milano on 2.3.4, but i figured with 4.6 million people Someone surely could help.

Thank you so much in advance.

[General Questions and Answers] Zelious:
I did it! Finally!

I just got my phone from Ting a couple weeks ago and rooted it yesterday.

Unfortunately I can't directly post Outside links (Not at 10 posts yet, and have no idea what else to post about other than this at the moment, which requires a link (For Credit Due Purposes) and I know it will be helpful to people that were as desperate as me for something that was starting to seem rather impossible and no one was paying that much attention to it.), but this is important enough that I'll try to just chop it up - You'll just have to put it back together to go to that site.

This works:

androidforums

.com/milano-all-things

-root/709963-no

-pc-root-method

.html

Not sure why the guide says "Enable usb debugging in Settings, Applications, Development" since you never use the PC, I enabled it anyway, and also enabled to install third party apps, or else Poot won't install, not sure why that isn't on the guide. (Maybe they got mixed up?)

A few things you might want to know:

After hours I finally found the solution. But the terminal still doesn't work for uninstalling ("pm uninstall com.google.android.books.apk" = Failure), you have to do everything though your phone (I'm using the app "RootAppDelete"). The phone roots itself with a third party app called "Poot" using libraries from "Ministro 2"

Before doing this you're gonna need something like 25MBs of storage or so (Can delete everything afterwards with the exception of SuperUser (Can't delete that) to get the space back (Also, you need a app to actually use root actions). - The "Ministro 2" packages are huge for this phone's tiny internal storage! 11MB around)

Make sure to install anything small first and anything big right before the phone gets over 15MB full, because at that time you can't install anything else, with low memory errors.

Another thing that might have helped me when I did this is - back when I couldn't root I made all apps default install to the phone with the android sdk platform-tools (I didn't want to risk anything so I moved Poot, Ministro 2 and SuperUser back to the phone before running Poot. since they default installed to the SD)

"adb shell"

"pm SetInstallLocation 2"

Know its been said elsewhere, but this works with the Milano. Wanted to say that in case you needed the space to use Poot.

And the last problem is after I did all this, now my headphone jack wants to think it has headphones plugged in all the time, If I move the phone around it starts playing on the phone's speaker. It seems like something is lose. Not sure if that was caused by the root (since it wasn't doing it before, and I've never used the headphone jack before) or because there was lose hardware, not sure. Still working on a solution to that, which I found

something similar here, almost looks like a common problem: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=817872

I would put my proof of doing this have a screen shot of root checker, but alas its an outside link. Understand though.

And as I've read a million times before this, here's a disclaimer: I'm not responsible and use at your own risk.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dragon_rckr:
I guess you're looking for the app2sd from Froyo... ICS can't do that nativly, but there are work arounds with root. Like the one posted above, but that swaps you interal with external memory.

The best option would be Link2SD, reported working in Sprint SG3 by a few members. But for this to work you need to partition your extSdCard so it has a ext4 and FAT32 partition, if you don't know how then follow this post that has detailed instructions.

CHANGELOG:

v1.1

Compiled with the latest MIUI patchrom code. Some apps added by default but most are relevant only for the chinese. This is again a full release and not an update. I had to be because I built using the latest MIUI patchrom sources.

Fixes:

1. Fixes the irritating sec MIUI, sec error dialogs. Now if some application crashes we get proper error message

2. LockScreen sound lag fixed. Some lockscreen still lag if you turn screen off and on immediately. But we dont get the default ICS screen anymore. It gives the current wallpaper now. Overall the lag feel a little better.

3. Themes fixed in dialer where background texture were not displayed correctly. Some theme lockscreens will still not work. But most of these themes are not formed correctly becuase I keep getting missing images in the logs and the images are actally missing in the theme package. Maybe there's a workaround somewhere but I can't solve it for now. So lets live with it :)

4. PIN unlock works now.

5. MIUI backup seems to be working fine now. No issues with Contact backups

6. Tried to fix SIM import issue. Can someone test. My sim card is empty.

7. Can now play mp3 by clicking on it within fileExplorer. I guess it wasn't working earlier.

8. Lot of other small fixes.

v1.0 beta

Fixes:

1. Now no more FC/restarts on App error messges. However, still need to see why we get sec MIUI and sec and not more meaning error messages :)

2. USB mass storage works now.

3. FC/restart on volume up/down when screen turned off fixed

4. Themeing fixed (most themes working)

5. Added support for custom boot animation (Thanks to freeza from Galaxy III forum for the wonderful article on changing bootanimation and to wanansmile coz I used his trick to stop boot animation)

6. Root and Permission issues fixed

7. Improper shutdown messages fixed

8. App storage calculation fixed. Now you can clear data, clear cache for particular apps.

9. Added support for move app to Usb Storage

10. Fixed no multiple call rings issue

11. Fixed Browser image downloading app Error issue

v0.1

Initial alpha build

A general tip : Sometimes when I change something in settings, it doesn't get saved. Must do it 1-2 more times and it works. If you click on the text for a setting toggle and not the toggle itself, it works a lot better. Probably its meant to be used this way. You get a sound when changes are applied. I cound enable voodoo smart amplifier too when clicking on the text. I can't fix it coz I dont get any errors in logs when clicking the toggle itself.

So do all device functions work ? Like Network, WiFi, Data, Camera, FM, all bundled apps etc. ?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parajsinghal:
Network, WiFi, Data, Camera - Yes

FM - App opens fine, did not test

all bundled apps - They work, but you may get some launcher restart issues with some apps.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
It'll be better if some screenies will be added to op.

Finally we got it....:victory:

Thanx buddy...:good:

Dammit. I did take some sceenshots. Just forgot to put them in OP. Thanks for reminding.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
Miui is a aosp based custom rom so it requires different kernel than stock to run. So I have some questions.

1. Can u plz tell what kernel u have used?

2. Is there are some kernel related extra function?

3. Have u removed secured erase? If not data wipe can lead to known emmc super brick.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] shaheen7m:
Please give some info about the kernal. Can we use latest Ardatdat updates? Do I have to flash Australian ROM first to flash MIUI? I am currently on Angeeks custom rom over Nordiac.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parajsinghal:
Its based on custom stock rom buddy and uses ardatdat kernel. But you can't directly flash ardatdat kernel coz I made init script changes.

I am not sure if you need to flash Austrian rom first. Do it if you want to play safe or maybe you can try directly. I think it should work since you are wiping data. Do let us know the outcome if you choose to try it.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
Downloading. Report if I notice bugs.

will take a damn lot of time as I have slow connection :o :(
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] shaheen7m:
Buddy, It would be great if you can make an FAQ in OP so that many questions can be answered in a single shot. And please mention the kernal version too. I am not able to flash atm, have to look into it tonight:good:

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] 824587:
Better wipe, install austrian ICS, latest CWM, flash MIUI and any other stuff you want to (like MBB mod), and fix permissions before rebooting.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] xlm13x:
while granting SU permissions, device freezes and reboots. :(

after reboot pop-up appears asking SU permissions and accepting it or declining it both freezes device and reboots.

i m unable to provide logcats as phone is not being detected in adb.

also i m unable to use adb, device is not being detected.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] hors_sergio:
Thanks for the fast reply :)

I will try this today in the evening :)

Btw... is cwm 5.5.0.4 okay to flash it?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parajsinghal:
Factory reset will definitely work but you will have to install the rom again after factory reset till I build a temp flashable zip or find a permanent solution to the /syste/bin/installd issue.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] boulder96:
Thanks. I really appreciate your help. Will go with a reset then :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] chandanbs:
I think users may need to take few precautions after flashing this rom..

1. Restoring my system settings from MIUI backup app broke my usb mass storage functionality.

2. Restoring my 2 gmail accounts didnt restore anything.. (Restoring from backed up gmail accounts settings doesnt work. it didnt in earlier alpha also.

3. System wipe from Settings menu (i.e., factory reset) will result in "stuckup in boot". I had to reflash the rom before wiping everything again.

Other than that, its a wonderful rom..!! permission issues fixed..
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parajsinghal:
Installed each and every app you mentioned, except setCPU(its paid) but I installed NoFrills, no issue at all :confused:

Maybe will try gapps as well. What was your source for gapps. The same as in the OP ??
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] chandanbs:
dragosh01x, may i know what this ZSPLD rom is? i dont see anywhere on posts here..

Nevermind. Its taiwan rom.

Btw, Paraj ...one thing i noticed was the ram usage is always hovers around 750 mb even if we have opened few apps. Once i reclaim by purging ram, i get back around 300 mb and after 15mins or so its again back to 750+ !!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] boulder96:
Does init.d scripts work with this rom?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parajsinghal:
Should work. Thats a property of the kernel and we are using the awesome ardatdat kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parajsinghal:
Ram usage on Miui will always be a bit on the higher side. But dont get fooled by the Miui free ram utility. It reads the ram as 1G. So if you have 750 mb usage it means 250+ mb is still left. Thats like ~580 mb usage if viewed through any other utility.

I hope you get what I am trying to explain. If not download any ram utility from market and you'll know;)

CRT off is not working in new Beta version, is it just me ? any one can confirm ?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] chandanbs:
Loks like its disabled. I have read in miui forum that it caused few glitches while turning on on some roms.. more details here..

http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/req-crt-off-animation-for-screen-off.16771/

But, please dont apply the patches provided there and in other xda forums.. you may get into bootloop..

Lets see Paraj has some thoughts on this..
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] hasanjaved:
Sorry guys....i didnt check... Now we can change automatic date and time , vibrate on touch...:D

But still we cant change many more...and in apps also options r not changing...
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] chandanbs:
Hasan,

vibration on touch still doesn't work in general.. (although as discussed earlier.. vibration on dialer and keypad work with respect to their app components).

Hi Paraj,

I was wondering if you can port miui toolbox which is showcased in miui us site to our device.. :D

The customized settings look cool..

http://www.miui.us/content.php?235-MIUI-us-Toolbox-MIUI-us-Exclusive-Settings-Toolbox
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] hasanjaved:
Yea sorry.:D

I found one thing by long pressing for 3-5 sec the written option changes... I changed states(enabled/diabled) stuffs in the settings. that was not changing earlier like touch sound.

Also I m able to enable WLAN direct now.:thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parajsinghal:
Sorry but what are you guys discussing about. Vibrate on touch and everything works. Dont touch the toggle itself to change. Always touch the text beside it. You will hear a touch sound if enabled. That tells you if toggle successfully worked.

What apps the options are not changing? I'll try as well. Almost all toggles seem to be working for me.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parajsinghal:
Yeah like Chandan suggested I disabled it after reading some forum that it causes lockscreen gliches but no luck :(
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] hasanjaved:
I hadnt tried it earlier...thats y

I didnt know that...:o

Now I m part of you. Gudnt
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] hors_sergio:
So... I think it's time for a small report from my side ;)

I'm about 3 weeks at this rom and I have to say, that I love it and I use it as my normal daily rom. Since the last update I haven't any fc's,everything runs really smooth, the themes work as they should, Bluetooth, wifi, mobile network, GPS and all things work like a charm :)

I'm really satisfied what you guys have done with the rom :)

:thumbup:

There are only 2 things, that i've faced and they are known. That's the crt-off animation and the haptic feedback from the softkeys are not working.

Thanks 1000times for all you do for our device :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] chandanbs:
Hi Paraj

vibrate on touch option itself can be enabled or disabled like what you described but its intended effect is just not there. I mean physically we can see the setting getting toggled and so is vibration intensity levels viz medium strong ...

Btw, I have observed fc (sec miui : sec) when using ringdroid if you set a custom ringtone to any favourite contact the app crashes and get this fc. I think it could be apps fault since its not been updated in market for ages :D
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:
Buddy, its really Great ROM. I have tried MIUI for My Official LG Optimus Black but it really Smoother then LG one. Till now what I have seen reported below:

1) Battery Backup is very Good. My phone was Deep Sleep for whole night.:good:

2) Touch Response is smooth. :good:

3) MIUI themes are applying without any hassle (Please GOD This would always be like that):victory:

4) Looking really awesome.

Problem facing til yet:

1) If I m applying LBE privacy Gaurd, it just restart the system after pressing "OK" button for conditions for application.:mad:

2) When I disable to the Touch sound / vibration on touch / dial pad touch tones in Sound setting, it doesn't do that.:mad: Just shows me ticked first then unchecked automatically.:eek:

Paraj buddy. You did a really good job & may we will b getting it more smoother MIUI. Great one.

Note: If above bugs are already reported first, then please ignore. Coz I wasn't using MIUI till yet for my Galaxy R. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parmarket:
1)This ROM already has that app called Permission which is powered by LBE privacy Guard, so I think there is no need to install that app from market.

2) Paraj has already mentioned that to make it work seamlessly you have to touch text of that perticular setting and not toggle, it just works best that way. go through last 1-2 pages you will get your answer.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:
This is what I called a nice answer. Great one buddy & I know about LBE privacy Guard is there in MIUI but when we install the application it restarts. Doesn't matter. Now I have fully working MIUI..:highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Adam77Root:
I had used the alpha version for some days and now I use the beta. It's definitely better. Everything I need/use frequently is stable and smooth. It is strange for me that the lockscreen behaves a little lazy, but I can get used to it.

Another issue: The fonts in the xda app are too small. I'm sure it's some system setting. Will post a screenshot later if needed. Can you do anything with this?

All in all: Great work buddy! :) Can you pls share your patchrom code on GitHub? It'll definitely help other devs to port MIUI for a 4.0.4 ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:
I m using the theme of ANGL. It working great in Lockscreen. yes, 5% can b lazy but overall great.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Adam77Root:
I've just noticed that SMS is buggy. Even if I set SMS centre number, it doesn't work. If I set it to +number, it even kills mobile network. If I set it to 00number, it saves, but still cannot send message. So I cannot use this rom now. :(
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:
Have you tried to send on saved contact..?? is it same..??

Edit: I have tried it buddy. My msgs are sending & i m getting received notifications.

But when I try to download through mobile it says "Error: "******" couldn't be downloaded due to an error (927)"
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] chandanbs:
Vikesh I think you have setup more than one gmail accounts. Point to your primary account in play store account settings.

I think in this beta few miui addons are not visible in the apps.?? There was a miui addon called app startup settings where we can enable disable app auto start at bootup. I don't see it in this rom.

Adam, try the lockscreen of sense 4.0 its quite snappy and also music controls work fine.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:
No buddy, i have only one account of gmail.:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] parmarket:

Is there somthing i build.prop that could make apps incompatible:confused:

Also, i removed google play services from data/app. Again installed previous version and checked bt FC. Again i flushed the data and reinstalled newer version.
