3.8.2 is out for DS (saga)

http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/3-8-2.21591/ :cowboy:
[HTC Desire S] dady000:
Is there any official MIUI forum for saga or we have only this? :confused: I think that forum on MIUI is dead...
[HTC Desire S] otterbvrn:
On miuiandroid.com yes, it's dead...

On en.miui.com it's very slow, but not dead I think
[HTC Desire S] Magicim:
Regrettably, our DS is being obsolete and people is replacing it with new and better smartphones... Last Saturday I was testing the last version of Miui v5 (3.8.2) but I had to return to Miui v4. I found some problems after installation (or I couldn't find the way to configure some settings). After installation:

- sometimes, when I get into some menus, words appeared blurred. This occurred sometimes and not always on the same menu...

- I couldn't find the way to move the apps to SD card.

- Smoothness was not very fine (not as good as Miui v4)

Perhaps I tested during a short time because I flashed again the Miui v4 Rom after a couple of hours...but my feeling with the last Rom was not quite good. I think our DS works better with ics version, perhaps jb is a big jump for it and....do we actually need jelly bean running on it?? Is a "port-from" a good solution for upgrading a device??
[HTC Desire S] otterbvrn:
Yep, word blurred sometimes on me too, but it doesnt take too long, so i can live with that...

Moving apps to sdcard, I'm using titanium backup, it works, but my phone gets laggy after that

Yes, smoothness is not fine, I'm using v6, it gets better
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
Have any of you had any problems with their WiFi disconnecting after a while? Mine seems to be doing that, and it's really annoying! It started with the last few updates, and I'm not sure how to fix it.

I really hope this can be fixed, because I have to keep toggling my WiFi off and on. :(
[HTC Desire S] Lynxen:
Hey! Can someone fix my problem with S2W? I need to set it up or install some that won't mess anything.

Looking forward to replays!

[HTC Desire S] vinprivag:
I'm using trickster mod it's better than sweep to wake enabler! (coz it has apply on boot option)
[HTC Desire S] Artic King:
I've tried almost every posisble way to flash a custom rome, so far; hopeless. It stucks at the boot animation.

I've used the All-In-One-Kit to unluck my bootloader, flashed as well CWM as TWRP 2.4 succesfully but when I try to flash a custom ROM using one of those two Recovery's; nothing. I make sure i wipe, both before and after.

Do i mis anything?
[HTC Desire S] NVardan:
Flash the boot.img found in ROMs .zip file. And make sure, that you have a Sony panel when installing AOSP JB ROMs.
[HTC Desire S] Artic King:
Thanks, your directions led my to this tutorial (https://gist.github.com/sickill/1694742) wich worked!

I used the CM-mod mentioned in the tut, but i assume it works the same way for this marvelous MIUI-mod?

[edit] jups.
[HTC Desire S] nagorimayank:
Is there anyway can the latest MIUI be ported on 4.2.2 (CM10.1) as base??
[HTC Desire S] dady000:
Mostly no because 4.2.2 have only few devices, I think non-ported made by MIUI team. But do not know too why it does not have 4.2.2..
[HTC Desire S] nagorimayank:
If it could be ported to 4.1.2 by MIUI porting team, it shouldn't be difficult to upgrade their base to 4.2.2 then! I just want the existing Desire S 4.1 release to be ported over to 4.2.2! That's it! :D :)
[HTC Desire S] anomalic:
awesome, accept for the keyboard?

I am very pleased with this version, its really awesome, it took some try and errors before it was working, but hey, never give up, never give in, but one big problem is the function of the android keyboard, I have tried several things and re-install of the image and apps, but it keep crashing..

Unlocked HTC Desire S

You have got two months old version (in your signature), maybe you can try new one (upgrade is simple).
[HTC Desire S] MaxAndroided:
thanks

I'll try this solution :)

[HTC Desire S] otterbvrn:
Weeww... What version is it? On 3.10.11 changelog I dont see a significant update
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
It's 3.10.11. There are two versions available for download, the 4.1 and 4.2. I still have to install the update though, but I'm seriously looking forward to it! :D :good:

Here's the link for the downloads: http://www.miui.com/extra.php?mod=download/rom&fid=31

The big orange button is to download the 4.2 version. :good:
[HTC Desire S] otterbvrn:
thanks... have you tried it? I'm till using june version. Everytime I opened official website, the phones which get android 4.2 still having much trouble than 4.1 one...
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
Yes, I did, but I'm using the 4.1 version. There are a lot of graphical glitches, just like in the first few versions of v5. There's no 4 way reboot menu, and the camera has a green screen when capturing, and the photo quality is quite bad. So I'm sticking to 4.1, for now. I'm sure it will improve with time. I'll obviously keep trying the 4.2 version with each update though, lol!

Sent from my Desire S
[HTC Desire S] otterbvrn:
Aah... so my guess is right...

idk, is it a beta version from beta?

haha, thanks for trying each update, now I'm more selective updating versions.. because it's hard for me to restore my apps back every week because I always do full wipe :P

i hope it will be stabilezed in a short time
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
It most likely is a beta of a beta. I always do a full wipe too, but I don't have too many apps to restore, so it's not too much of an effort for me. :p

Sent from my Desire S
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
Ok, so I couldn't help myself, and installed the 4.2 version again, lol! :p:D

Here's what else I've experienced so far:

It feels much smoother than 4.1, especially with the launcher. Folders open up quicker, and moving icons is smooth and fast.

Copy and paste is broken; when long-pressing on text to copy, it FCs the app you're in. >> I want to fix this, but I have absolutely no idea how to!

I've swapped the camera with the one in the 4.1 version, and although it gave me a few errors after wiping the data, a dalvik and cache wipe seems to have fixed it. Now the camera works well, and is even more responsive than it is in 4.1.

That's pretty much it, so far. I'm keeping it for now, as I have a workaround for the camera, but I just need to find a solution for the copy and paste issue. Not that I'm a dev or anything though. :confused:

[HTC Desire S] shiftyHungary:
I'm installing the 4.2 version, could you upload the files of the camera which you've replaced? I don't want to download the 4.1 just for this...:laugh:

No problem, I'll post the link when it's done uploading :thumbup:

What about the temperature on standby? On 4.1 I face quite hot..
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
What can I say? I'm a flashaholic :p :D

The temperature seems fine to me, but I never had a problem on 4.1 either. Maybe I just didn't notice it, if it did get hot.

How's the battery life on 4.2?
[HTC Desire S] shiftyHungary:
I think it was pretty bad :(

That was the main reason why I personally reverted to SVHD 2.1.0.

4.2 CM also had a relatively weak battery lifetime, but it wasn't as bad as on MIUI.
[HTC Desire S] vinprivag:
Might be off topic but how's svhd treating u? In terms of battery and ram?
[HTC Desire S] otterbvrn:
In my opinion, for battery life, cm 10.1 is the best, 2nd between miui 4.1 3rd svhd

I love sense but I will have to sacrifice battery consumption

But for smoothness, the best is svhd, then cm 10.1, then miui

I dont know, i never feel miui very smooth except before installing all my apps
[HTC Desire S] shiftyHungary:
Well battery isn't suprsingly good, but it's not bad either. It hangs on for a day with moderate usage, by which I mean 2-3 hours of music and 3G, 1-2 hours of gaming, some calls and SMS.

Ram needs a task manager however...:D

Although I haven't SuperCharge yet :D
[HTC Desire S] otterbvrn:
Idk, what I've done, but, after supercharged, my phone gets hot, even on standby...

I never play with minfree setting, just default... It's better for me when it's clean
[HTC Desire S] shiftyHungary:
Well I only experienced overheating problems when I played some games with the processor OC.

But is there anything that could do the same or something with the ram management?
[HTC Desire S] Nemisia:
Just flashed the 3.10.11 last week, my first encounter with Miui. Can I flash the 3.10.18 "dirty" over my current ROM??
[HTC Desire S] levijhun:
dirty flashing is fine, unless you've encountered strange bugs. :)
[HTC Desire S] Nemisia:
Thanks. By the way, on the website of Miui they mention V5. Is the ROM for the desire S this V5??
[HTC Desire S] levijhun:
yes it's ported MIUI V5 for our device. ;)
[HTC Desire S] Nemisia:
Thanks again. Just one more thing, than I think I have the hang of this Miui.

Do I need to flash the English version first, than the MultiLang version over it? Or can I just use the MultiLang version alone? Because the seize of the MultiLang is bigger than the ported English Rom. Is this because the MultiLang Rom is the origional English Rom with added languages, or are these just the the extra translations?
[HTC Desire S] levijhun:
If you only need an English language then English ROM would be fine. You seem to know the answer on your question. :p
[HTC Desire S] nodeffect:
I can't find v5 for our device.... Can I have the download link or the official website? Thanks.

Everything went smooth on the latest version .. I'm liking it very much... The only thing I don't like is the stock keyboard, I thought they will have their own miui keyboard.
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
I had it installed for an hour or two, but I had to roll back to 3.10.11, because changing the date and time would cause FCs. The copy and paste works fine, and the overscroll graphics are fixed, but it isn't as responsive as 3.10.11.

If you don't have any apps that require you to change the date or time, you won't have a problem with last week's release. :thumbup:

Sent from my Desire S
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
So this week there's only a 4.2 update, which is awesome, but changing the date still FCs, and that means I can't use it! :( :banghead:

I use a baby feeding tracker for my daughter, and I need to be able to change the date, in order to use the app properly. :( *sigh* Maybe it's a sign that I don't need the app anymore, lol!

Another thing about this week's update is that the system font is very big, even when it's set to small. Other than that, it runs smoothly, and the camera seems to be fixed. :thumbup:

Hello,

Tried to flash the Miui V5 ROM Many Times on Desire S, however its not going post htc logo. I have revloutionary s-off. Tried flashing with CWM, TWRP too

Appreciate your help.

PS: SVHD ROM Works without any issues.
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
Use 4ext recovery. Best recovery for our device .

So you are selecting "wipe all except sd card" before flashing this rom right?
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
Just a quick question, guys: Do any of you have a problem with the gmail app taking really long to open emails? I select an email to open, and then it takes so long to open it up, I have to press back, then when opening it again, it finally opens up. :confused:

It happens on 4.1 and on 4.2, but on CM10.2, it works as it should. So could it be that I'm doing something wrong, or is it miui in general?

EDIT: Ok, I did a clean install, with a different gapps package, and it seems to have made a difference. Although, it could just be that I got the new Gmail layout, with the Social, Promotions, etc, tabs. Anyway, it still does the same thing when I open a new email from the notification bar.
[HTC Desire S] aarat:
Tried it with 4ext too still same issue.
[HTC Desire S] niravnn:
All i can say right now download it again and flash it with 4ext recovery.

And dont forget to select wipe all except sd card.

And if you're s-on than flash the boot.img from the rom zip

[HTC Desire S] Cole07:
3.11.1 was really battery eater, but using 3.11.8 for 3 days its really fine. 3.11.8 using different kernel (I think older), cpu default running at 1024 mhz (3.11.1 was 1200mhz) and I liked battery life. I think you guys should try if not try yet...
[HTC Desire S] MaxAndroided:
Hi can you recommend a kernel for me :)

And is the proximity sensore issue (dead screen while calling) fixed? :fingers-crossed:

thanks ^^
[HTC Desire S] Cole07:
Default kernel comes with rom is doing its job. No need to flash another kernel. Also as you know there is only andromadus kernel is available for JB. Miui v3.11.1 was using linux 3.0.101 kernel and it was awful even 1200 Mhz stock cpu speed. Miui v3.11.8 using linux 3.0.93 kernel and performance is better w/o touching oc/uv settings.

About the proximity sensor; I hadn't have this issue.

You should try new miui 3.11.8...
[HTC Desire S] MaxAndroided:
Ok it seems my proximity sensor problem is fixed ... :good:

And it feels smother :D

....

xposed framework not compatible anymore :confused:

get bootloop :(

Edit: proximity sensor problem is not fixed -_-

have to turn it off -_-
[HTC Desire S] Cole07:
MIUI v5 3.11.15 is up...

I couldn't find much difference between 3.11.8, but usually differences are under hood.

With v. 3.11.15 no need to download multi-lang file and flash after eng rom. Multi Lang is integrated to rom...
[HTC Desire S] miz_pimp:
The date picker is also fixed in 3.11.15 :p :D

I still think that 3.10.11 was the smoothest 4.2 available for the DS. It was just that copy and paste didn't work. Xposed also worked fine.

Never had random reboot since v.3.10.8
[HTC Desire S] levijhun:
Ok I will try the latest version then and will update you all after. Thanks!
[HTC Desire S] Magicim:
Are you sure this is a version without bugs??

I tried to update from 3.2.22 (ICS) to any JB version (1-2 months ago) and I had to downgrade because the feeling was quite bad.

I'm still using 3.2.22 and I don't know if any day JB will be developed for our ds for running smoothness. ICS could be developed from a base Rom published by HTC, but JB is coming from a port version.

Are you sure update to JB is a good idea with the last update?
[HTC Desire S] Cole07:
Well, I think you can try it. In my opinion its less bugfree than other sense roms (sense3.6 or sense4)

Only problem I had (latest 3.11.15 rom) is, which only happened for twice, screen came up late after pressing power button. Do nandroid backup then flash then try. And finally share your thoughts with us...
