Is it really necessary to do a full wipe when you go from 12.11? After the problems I had with the first 12.18 release, I had to do a full wipe before my 12.11 would work properly (all apps FC'd on me).

It's just such a drag to redo all things again. I mean, I do a system and apps backup with MIUI backup, but I have to rearrange all my theme, wallpapers, screens, widgets and stuff. Is there a better way to backup all those settings?
[Desire Android Development] Potsu:
trying to download Emiui but it keeps stopping at around 36mb. Also it doesnt look like the mirror is working

EDIT: looks like the mirror is working ok.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
YAHOOOO! BEEN waiting for this one, I'll download and update then post feedback.
[Desire Android Development] shinodoigt:
Ok so in you post, you say to use 30.2 radio but at the end of flashing, you say 05.27. What to believe ? xD
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
i've not yet tried cenkaan's 12.18 versions.

you'll get more confuse, here R2 is release,

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9928718&postcount=4056

It was mentioned to revert to recommended radio. i guess you'll have to trace back. if what whas ment is "recommended Radio by MIUI developers, that is 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2".

Unless specified by the custom rom developer to flash his own recommended radio.
[Desire Android Development] r47z:
thank you for 0.12.18 I can feel the difference in stability/speed. I updated from 0.12.11 without wiping with the method from http://miui-blog.com/blog/how-to/update-miui-without-losing-everything/
[Desire Android Development] mon@diac:
What's the problem? I wrote everythings in my posts...

Bold numbers are download counts until now and only you say about it... I say again, for R1 I used latest RIL for latest radio and for R2 (0.12.18) reverted to recommended radio RIL...
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Thanks LooBoo, eevek,

Working great after flashed.

GPS okay, signal okay, wifi connection okay. will test more.
[Desire Android Development] edwardally:
Market is not working... Thanks anyway
[Desire Android Development] MasDroid:
Thanks for the current update, wilk surely try later today.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
that is not a market related thread post.

I don't use market a lot.

Anyways, the market that comes with the 12.18 eMIUI works for me.
[Desire Android Development] edwardally:
Market in 12.18 is not working for me and there are no problem if I revert back to 12.17. Ignore me since you mention this is not market related thread. Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] r47z:
anyone getting random reboots ? :(
[Desire Android Development] squall343:
i am getting storage space low

very weird..according to titanium backup there is only 14.4mb internal space left

however i got A2SD+ available space of 325mb

seem like the apps are not storing in the A2SD+ partition
[Desire Android Development] xanadu:
Apps are stored where you want like on my Desire:
[Desire Android Development] stoske:
I flashed this RIL and its not working, losing network after 1 minute, no signal at all.

P.S. everything else is OK for now, only one strange issue with Market.

Apparently I cannot find some apps anymore, for example SD Card Speed Test etc...
[Desire Android Development] nanujra:
Reporting that eMIUI 12.18 works perfect for me,

coming from eMIUI 12.11 having wiped only cache and davlik cache. :)
[Desire Android Development] Mike Philippens:
Me too. Earlier, I had to revert back to 12.11 because of problems (which could have been resolved with a reboot I gues...in hindsight).

I flashed 12.18 R2 over mij 12.11 with only a clear cache/dalvik cache and at first I still had some Chinese, but that was solved by setting the locale to English. After that, I installed the VorkKernel. Works perfectly. Only strange thing is that the Phone storage is something like 30Mb, where it was more like 60 before. And I do have an EXT3 partition of 1Mb. I don't know how this works, but I was under the impression that with A2SD+ you don't have to set anything in this regard and that apps go on the SD automagically. Not really an issue, as long as newly installed apps go there.

I also noticed that the Circlemod that was build for 12.11 doesn't work on 12.18. I had a boot-loop when I tried that. I recovered from that by removing the battery, boot into recovery and re-flash 12.18.

Everything works smooth and fast as I'm used to by now. Hats off to all developers who spend so much of their time on keeping us happy with nice rom's to play with ;)
[Desire Android Development] nanujra:
follow the instructions in the OP's faq to activate your A2SD+ if it doesn't work.

my A2SD+ has 723mb space left out of a 1gb ext3 partiton with some 70+ apps installed.
[Desire Android Development] Mike Philippens:
My A2SD+ works allright...It worked before, so I have no reason to believe it suddenly stopped working. I was only wondering why I only had 30Mb phone memory left when I flashed 12.18 R2. I just flashed MIUI_au 12.17 and I have 90Mb phone memory... Weird stuff.

But my A2SD+ is working. When I install something, it goes there. I was just wondering where the sudden drop in available phone memory came from.
[Desire Android Development] chrisvr4:
I had problem with low internal mem at 1st, I done a full wipe of everything and reinstalled, booted up checked storage and it went back upto 130mb.

I've about 70 apps installed and all seem to go to app2sd and still got 123 Meg left on internal.

:)
[Desire Android Development] Ivanovic:
If you have A2SD issues follow the steps in the first page guys.You need to type a few lines in a terminal emulator and a2sd+ will work fine :)

earpiece too loud

i' m using cenkaan's 0.12.18 R2 english ROM with recommended radio 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 and the earpiece is too loud in this release, the only problem in another perfect release.... does anyone experience the same?

Thanks in advance guys

So why not just lower it? Either before (Settings, Personal, Sound, In-call volume) or when in a call (vol down button).

Its hard to maintain both Greek and Serbian translation thats why this pack hasnt everything translated.Basic stuff should work though!

Framework-res almost fully translated.

[Desire Android Development] jayk32:
First of all, this is a GREAT ROM :D But could someone PLEASE tell me how do i transfer files with the File Explorer? many thanks in advance & sorry if this has already been asked. :cool:
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
If you mean the FTP server.

Turn on Phone Wifi, PC in wifi too.

1. Run Explorer in Phone

2. Go to Third tab, FTP server

3. Click Start FTP server (your phone will show an ftp address)

4. On PC Explorer, Type that address (now you'll see your sd files and can transfer)
[Desire Android Development] jayk32:
Many thanks for ur reply, but i still don't know how to transfer :confused:
[Desire Android Development] MusiQ1:
few quick question before i'm going to use MIUI rom ;-)

1. I'm using a newer radio version then recommended, if this gives me trouble, is it lot of work to downgrade it or can I just flash the files from the radio and that's it?

2. If i BUY MyBackupPro and I install my new rom (wipe everything), can I just download the app again without buying again (it's synced to my google account I guess?)

3. I'm Dutch and i haven't really found a dutch package but I sorted out how to translate it. Can I download the latest English MIUI rom (English RC3 I read a few pages back), translate it, save it and post it here for others as well?

4. I read lot's of trouble with WIFI and GPS, 2 things I commonly use. Are these bad or is it just casual?

5. A2sd is included or do I have to put it in myself? (if so, how? I've seen how to create the ext3 part on my sd, but not the rest)

Sorry, kinda noobish! ;-)

Cheers!
[Desire Android Development] eevek:
you need to have 2 devices on the same Wi-Fi, obviously... (your Desire and your PC)

start FTP server form MIUI's file explorer...you'll be provided with your FTP server IP address and port...for example 192.168.0.5:2121

use some kind of FTP software on your PC, for example FileZilla to connect to that IP:Port

transfer files to/from your Desire

You simply flash the radio...some users say they need to flash the RIL also..you'l have to see for yourself. I'm currently using the latest radio and it's RIL without any problems...before, i was on 5.09.05.30_2 radio with MIUI stock RIL and...also no problems

Every application/game you buy from the Market is "glued" to your Google account...so, you'll simply download it from the Market again...no additional payment, ofc.

Sure, that's the point :)

I actually had none...sometimes it's snowing as hell, weather sux and ppl can't get a GPS fix in 10 seconds and they start pulling their hair off, talking about GPS problems, when all they need is just a little patience :)

Sometimes you'll get a lock in 5 seconds, sometimes in 30...it all depends on your location, and weather before anything else..and Wi-Fi...i don't know..haven't had problems since 0.11 something i think.

You need to create an EXT partition...after that, just install MIUI and all the apps will go to your EXT partition... moving apps to SD becomes a history

does anyone know what apk to delete from cenkaan rom for the gingerbread keyboard, as it stops some themes from loading

[Desire Android Development] eevek:
Edit contact->Join
[Desire Android Development] gouldy26:
eevek can you tell me what apk to delete to get rid of the gingerbread keyboard

sorry to be pushy, but i really need to do this soon

thanks

is it just the latinime apk?
[Desire Android Development] eevek:
You should ask Cenkaan...i don't know how he named that file. Don't use that sh*t (keyboard) anyway :D
[Desire Android Development] mon@diac:
LatinIME.apk...Gingerbread keyboard... remove it on adb
[Desire Android Development] gouldy26:
thanks, and cant i just delete the apk from the zip file, then just flash the rom as normal
[Desire Android Development] brpqzme:
thanks, but that only shows me other contacts on my phone and not the fb ones. (sorry for being so thick about this btw)

if you want the picture to sync download form the market syncmypix

but for Facebook status the Facebook app should do that when you choose sync with existing contacts
[Desire Android Development] faddys123:
not happening to me :D
[Desire Android Development] gouldy26:
brilliant, just got your reply in time, i was just about to flash the rom.

and the theme now works with the gingerbread keyboard gone, so thank you for the update :D
[Desire Android Development] gouldy26:
only a couple of themes it does it to, well it does for me anyhow
[Desire Android Development] eevek:
Go to contacts.

Menu -> Show all contacts.

Now, if you have a contact named John and his Facebook profile name is John Wayne, miui probably won't join them automatically. So you click on that John contact (not John Wayne) choose edit then press menu and choose join. Now you will see John Wayne on the list. Select him and your John contact will be synchronized.

This will be possible only if you activate synchronization (preferably sync all) in your Facebook app.

[Desire Android Development] brpqzme:
thanks so much for your help! I've finally got it now :)

but this won't sync pics, right? I need to use syncmypix for that?
[Desire Android Development] eevek:
Pics are synchronized just fine

Sent from my ZX Spectrum
[Desire Android Development] nanujra:
Same here. Gingerbread looks like such a let down. Nothing compared to the speed, efficiency and especially the themabililty of miui

Looks and features wise, GB is utterly disappointing. The best they could do was to add a cool screen off animation and some ugly orange flashes at the extreme ends of scrolling. I only hope that they've actually improved whats under the hood.

On that note, i hope too that soon miui will be based on GB. (Don't think that will take too long given the speed at which those guys have worked thus far)
[Desire Android Development] MusiQ1:
Hi,

I can't really choose what version of Miui to use. I want it to be the basic one and in English (maybe translating it myself afterwards). But which one would suit me best?

Or the miui au version (australian version or something???)

And then u haved the styled versions, jezus :P What's the best or can I flash themes afterwards from the basics so I end up with a styled version?
[Desire Android Development] brpqzme:
Oh yeah, they did! I was checking through whatsapp, and whatsapp doesn't sync pictures like it use to on Sense, but the built-in contacts app does fine. oh well

thanks for your help:D

I tried to create a ext3 partition on my sd card for a2sd but it didn't work :( help!

I firstly resized the wrong filesystem thingie, but that shouldn’t be any problem. Everything worked fine and I didn’t touch the sd card.

After that i found the sd card drive and ordered it to resize it with 512 mb. After that I said it to make it ext3 partition. Pressed apply but after a minute or so I got an error. It said to look at the detail screen but couldn’t find it.

Now is the problem, It doesn’t show up at all anymore in Gparted! The whole sd card dissappeared! I can find it in windows though and I can see (in disk manager) that it’s divided in 2 bits! But I can’t format the new bit to ext3 or do anything with it. Could also just be some fault.

I’m not sure about how or what but it’s killing me, i need this for a2sd+ and miui au, damnit. Please help!

SOLVED EDIT

Used this program EASEUS Partition Master 6.5.2 Home Edition and found the drive, formatted it as ext3 and that's it =)
[Desire Android Development] SpaceK33z:
Just try one! I personally can recommend eeveks rom. Simply because the ROM stays in English after changing the locale.

But cenkaans roms aren't bad too. Just try them both.

i dunno exactly, i'm using the standard camera app built in miui 0.12.3 .....what's the best camera app i can use and where could i get it?
[Desire Android Development] MKuiter:
The modded CM6 camera app for 12.03 can be found here; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=857546

On page 4 there's also a new version for 12.11. You'll have to change white balance when using flash to avoid green pictures.

Edit;

Hmm, I'm using the modded CM6 camera for 12.11 with white balance on auto and no green pictures, lucky me :D
[Desire Android Development] faddys123:
Which kernel are people finding that battery is good on ?
[Desire Android Development] Mike Philippens:
Since MIUI is built on 2.6.35.9, VorkKernel, the version of December 2nd would be a good choice.

You don't need Setcpu with that one, just use the cpu button in MIUI to slow it down in standby mode. If you need more options, you could use Setcpu, but you don't have to. I use the BFS version, which was recommended to me. I works like a charm and battery usage seems ok.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:

yes sometimes it does that (the camera sound) because with volume down+menu=screenshot ... press volume down once and then you are good to go.

i will wait the next release and if it is too loud i will go back to old radio
