BUGS/FIXES​

TORCH/FLASH- to fix torch bug you can just flash this kernel

Thanks to@core720 for his amazing kernel! Remember Folks this will make the default Flash/torch app dysfunctional so you would need to download any other app from play store.

So I was asking about installing super su.....

I got it working by installing it as an system apk and then updating the binary

---------- Post added at 10:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 PM ----------

I needed super su because according to me the auto hibernation feature of greenify wasn't working with the normal root app present in miui

After installing supersu I disabled the permissions manager and everything now works fine
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
I see,well i am using Greenify that too without Any super su and auto hibernation is working perfectly! you had make sure you had Latest WSM tools which is port of Exposed for MIUI and greenify module.
[Galaxy S 4 General] asad007:
After using super su it is working perfectly
[Galaxy S 4 General] asad007:

[MENTION=3492338]veer1238[/MENTION]

can you please explain what does it mean "warez free", what exactly was removed?

and also is your version multi-language?
[Galaxy S 4 General] jclarel:
"warez free" means that MIUI Market was removed.

I don't know if it's multi-language...
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
its same as official version but withou miui market as jclarel said.

about muti-language .....it just have option for chinese and english. I dont think two or three languages count as multi-language so no its not.

Torch

Thanks for letting us have the new kernel which will fix the torch bug. Does this kernel affect anything else?
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
no the kernnel is port of adam kernel. click on user mentioned on second post for actual thread of kernnel where all features are listed.

torch bug

hi, i flashed the fix kernel but i still have the torch bug, whats the problem??

help????

thanks
[Galaxy S 4 General] jclarel:
It seems that the torch bug is fixed in 4.3.14, provided that you use the stock theme.

Apparently, the bug occurs again if you change to a custom theme...
[Galaxy S 4 General] hajyihia:
....

thanks....for me the idea of flashing miui rom is to have an ios style, so if this doesnt work with themes then its useless for me....
[Galaxy S 4 General] jclarel:
Why don't you wake the phone up with the power button instead of the home button? It's just a question of habit...

If you do that often, the torch bug will go unnoticed and you will be able to use the IOS theme that you want...
[Galaxy S 4 General] hajyihia:
yeah i know what you mean and i did that couple of times but its hard not to press home button because thats what i was doing for about two years...first s2 and now s4....
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
thats realy strange, just to confirm I flashed both stock(default miui kernnel) the torch worked fine and then again flashed miui adam port kernnel (the one provided in second post) torch didnt work.

Make sure you flash and wipe cache and dalvik cache after wards.

actually we dont have an apk file for torch. the app you see in drawer is shortcut to torch fuction which is embedded in miuisystem/androidmanifest.xml. I will try to decompile and remove function and recompile it,though I think its that easy.
[Galaxy S 4 General] hajyihia:
i didnt wipe anything after flashing the kernel, maybe thats the problem?? can you confirm that even at using themes its fixed....??

thanks
[Galaxy S 4 General] AlexMullerSA:
Whatsapp voice record doesn't work. 'Can't setup recorder now, try again later.'
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
working just fine... no bugs at all did you restore your apk
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
Just a few bugs I picked up so far:

1> MiTools - not all changes take effect ie. setting clock to center has no effect. This is probably because it's still made for 4.2.2 and needs updating to work with 4.4.2

2> Some apps and parts are still in Chinese, like the music equalizer setting

3> Battery drain has increased after a few days, now using 2-4% on idle, not good. Did full wipes and loaded Al_Iraqi's Barebones MIUI and battery drain seems alot lower but I'll reserve judgement for a few days.

4> No stock settings like in 4.2.2 so can't enable Stay Awake and Power Saving (not the one in security, that one is still there)

5> Phone gets hot when gaming and battery drops rapidly. 15min playing Ace Fishing and used 20% battery! :(

6> If you go to themes while using stock theme the tabs are in English. If you change your theme the tabs turn to Chinese. Switching back to stock theme and the tabs remain in Chinese :rolleyes:

Other than its a solid start and I'm hoping further updates will refine this beautiful ROM :D
[Galaxy S 4 General] ain_gt:
It's not a bug. Themes app will change into Chinese because of Xiaomi themes regulation. It's always synchronize with xiaomi server.

It already happened since MIUI v 5 (4.2.2 version)

If you want themes app always in English, flash ROM from miuiandroid version. :cool:

http://miuiandroid.com/
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
Thanks buddy :D

Why was this not ever posted here before, I didn't even know about that site, I always been using the official miui website.
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
yup I can confirm that. I never use default theme. :p
[Galaxy S 4 General] fifa_dxy:

[Galaxy S 4 General] hajyihia:
thanks......
[Galaxy S 4 General] hajyihia:
not working

hi, i tryed what you said but it didnt work, i flashed the rom, then this kernel, dalvik and cache wipe, but i still have the torch working.....!! strange
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
strange indeed. i can at the moment suggest you a work around. go to developer options in settings and turn on skip screen lock. you wont go through screen lock when you press home button =no time for torch to launch.

Hello I'm planning to flash this ROM to my I9500 currently I'm on Lidroid 2.0 with Kit Kat 4.4.2

Recovery Philz touch latest version. As I'm downgrading do I need to take any special precautions so as not to brick my phone ?.

Thank you in advance ?

Enviado desde mi GT-I9500 mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
no you dont need to take any precautions. Just flash like it like a normal rom, make sure you have nandroid backup, and do a full wipe before flashing.
[Galaxy S 4 General] liquidcooled:
thanks
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
OK so I start with V 4.2.14 upgrade via recovery to 4.3.7 and finally to 4.3.14 and reboot after that. Am I correct?

Hi guys,

Anyone able to get the OTA updates to work?

I tried updating to 4.3.21 via Updater and it keeps failing "Status 7" error.

I tried CWM 6.0.3.6 and 6.0.4.7 as well as the latest Phils Touch but no luck

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
Gboss01 same issue here. No luck with the update.

Also I couldn't add my Facebook contacts to all my contacts so as to show their pictures during phone call. Same issue with the calendar
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
Maybe Veer the OP can help us out here.

I managed to at least get my contacts issue fixed using http://en.miui.com/thread-13943-1-1.html
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
sorry I forgot to post the latest ota.

I will in few hours. removal of miui market cuses ota to break as it contains system file verification.

Yes it will soon.

I will probe into calender or fb problem though I never synced myself.

For 4 way reboot. search and install wsm tools apk and install its module rebooter. I will update the thread for all these stuff once I get my hands on pc.
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:

[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
Hi Veer,

I managed to get the OTA update to install by editing the updater-script file and removing all the lines pertaining to the Supermarket :D

I also removed SuperMarket.apk.p from /patch/system/app directory.

Flashed in recovery and voila 4.3.21

I have attached the ota zip for anyone wanting/waiting to update to 4.3.21.

I hope you dont mind - I'm not trying to steal the show or detract from the great work you've done :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
Gboss01 couldn't flash your update... Status 7 error...
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
Hi roCorral,

What recovery are you using?

I'm using CWM 6.0.3.6 the one that comes with MIUI.

My friend got the same status 7 error when using Philz Touch. He flashed CWM 6.0.3.6 via Odin and flashed the update again with success.

Can you try the latest CWM, if that fails go with 6.0.3.6
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
<br />

Hi roCorral,<br />

<br />

What recovery are you using?<br />

I'm using CWM 6.0.3.6 the one that comes with MIUI.<br />

My friend got the same status 7 error when using Philz Touch. He flashed CWM 6.0.3.6 via Odin and flashed the update again with success.<br />

<br />

Can you try the latest CWM, if that fails go with 6.0.3.6<br/>

Yes philz touch latest version

I will try CWM
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
Tried with CWM 6.0.3.6 touch no luck at all... :'(
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
Dude, I'm stumped then. It flashes without an issue on my device.

I just reflashed it on my phone now and it went through and completed.

Let me repost the attachment maybe it was a bad upload.

Are you currently on 4.3.14?

If you want you can try editing the original OTA update yourself and try flash that.
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
UPDATED THREAD WITH LATEST OTA i.e v 4.3.21,:)

I DIDNT GET TIME TO TEST IT PLEASE REPORT IF YOU GET ANY ERROR ON FLASHING.
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
Got status 7 with philz touch 6.19.2

Based on cwm 6.0.4.7 with that recovery I was able to flash the whole Roman and it's up dates to 4.3.14... Any ideas?
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
edit: you are right. problem with script will fix it in a moment.
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
ota is fixed. report if you still face problem.
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
I re flashed the whole rom from scratch and now it worked nicely. My thanks I really happy with this rom. Expecting KK...

Question is there a way to use samsung keyboard with emojis?
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
I dont know, if you have samsung keyboard from stock then try pushing it in system folder and set the permissions.
[Galaxy S 4 General] yuzgen:
Can't install

I can install other ROMs just fine but status 7 while trying to install this one: miui_i9500_4.2.14 (moded by veer1238).zip

Does this guide work? en.miui.com/thread-9785-1-1.html
[Galaxy S 4 General] venki5star:
Is Bluetooth works fine in this ROM? And also can I install from TWRP recovery???
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
I wouldn't recommend flashing using odin. as its a flashable zip.

could you be more specific as there are many status 7 errors. what else do you get when you flash. or better send me recovery log.

never tried on twrp only philz or cwm,but technically it should work for any recovery.

no one has reported bluetooth as problem so it should work.
[Galaxy S 4 General] yuzgen:
Sure. Where is the log located?

Edit: Found it. Attaching.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
I got the same error using Philz Touch but flashed sucessfully using CWM 6.0.3.6

I hope it works for you too.

MIUI is on of the best/stable ROMS I've used on my S4. Not to mention the great battery life too!
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
I used latest version of philz without any problem. Rejected wipe to install a new Rom and worked perfectly... :D
[Galaxy S 4 General] yuzgen:
Thanks. I'm using SlimKat and loving it, but the voice call bug in CM is pushing me to switch the ROM.

I don't even know my CWM version. Will try to find CWM 6.0.3.6 you mentioned and see how it goes.
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
I thought I removed these lines from the build. never mind.

using win rar open rom archive, go to meta-inf/com/google/android/ updater-script and using any text editor remove these lines

getprop("ro.product.device") == "ja3g" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "ja3g" assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "ja3g" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "ja3g"

close text editor,you will get dialogue saying changes have been made would you like to save press yes. and then flash again.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
I gave up on the CM builds I too couldn't take the poor call quality as well as the huge battery drains.

My battery would barely last 8hrs with very little use. If I was on BBM alot then I'd be lucky to get 4hrs.

I'm sure you will like MIUI especially the themes

---------- Post added at 11:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 AM ----------

I need to download the latest Philz and TWRP and test. I stopped using Philz and TWRP because it wouldn't install MIUI.

---------- Post added at 11:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 AM ----------

Does that remove the device check from the zip?
[Galaxy S 4 General] yuzgen:
I guess our files are different. Eg. I can't find "failed" in whole document. Using Notepad++. Attaching mine.
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
sorry i just copy pasted from log.

remove these lines from attached document.

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "ja3g" ||

getprop("ro.build.product") == "ja3g");
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
Yes ! :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] venki5star:
I am on Philz. If I am not wrong philz is TWRP. CM11 has Bluetooth issue on calls but media works fine.
[Galaxy S 4 General] yuzgen:
Success

Removed first two lines of the file and installed it successfully.

Then tried to install your OTA update files but the result was the same error. I guess the same fix will work. Should I fix all three OTA updates or get OTA update from MIUI using software update?

Loved the Samsung keyboard. Phone call sounds great unlike CM. Thanks for your work.

Edit: Including GAPPS link in your OP's downloads section might help. Can I download and install GAPPS now, or should I start over?

BTW I used Total Commander's packer and text editor to remove those lines and repack the rom and it worked on S4 itself, because I'm out of office right now.

Edit-2: Tried to update within MIUI. Telling me to update on every boot and then fail. So don't use internal OTA update feature.

Edit-3: Installed OTAs from CWM. Only the first OTA update needed the removing lines fix. Also installed @core720's kernel. Now I will install WSM tools and flash GAPPS.
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:
updater wont work as rom is modified. so you have to manually edit all three.

I will update rom with latest version today or maybe tommorow and also gapps. thanks for the feedback.

No philz is based on cwm where as twrp is standalone.

No I dont think there's any bluetooth issue on miui. how about flashing reporting it?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gboss01:
Bluetooth working fine. Transferred files from phone to laptop and back.

I havent tried a bluetooth headset yet tho.

Only bluetooth issue I found is MIUI does not turn your bluetooth on if you try send via bluetoth, you have to go and turn bluetooth on manually first then send. Unlike TW which will turn bluetooth for you should you try send via bluetooth.
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
I'm using Philz Touch 6.0.19 if I'm right (the latest version posted by philz in his thread) and it worked flawlessly selecting the wipes to flash new ROM no issues at all.
[Galaxy S 4 General] LittleHedgehog:
Hi! I finally installed the rom, but I have some issues. I'm having frame drops when sliding, scrolling and when an animation plays. They're not much but it annoyes me. Is there a way to fix this? Or I will end up returning to stock.

Also, the samsung keyboard is not up to date as I cant select the keyboard that I want in my language. In stock, I was able to.
[Galaxy S 4 General] kamirza:
Philz 5.1.5.0 will work

---------- Post added at 02:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 PM ----------

If you use Philz 5.1.5.0 you wont require editing these lines.
[Galaxy S 4 General] RoCorral:
Was anybody able to download the update of today from the official website. I tried different methods and no luck. Was planning to edit the script :P
[Galaxy S 4 General] veer1238:

For people not being able to update

First of all this is a hypothesis

According to me, the updater script checks a LOT of things in the system even the lockscreen so apply the default theme and then try updating

(btw it doesn't check the icon theme :))
