2.8.2

Just flashed 2.8.2. Everything works smooth. Did a2sd cache and zipalign. No problems so far. Only thing I saw was there is some Chinese characters when choosing a theme but it doesn't bother me.

Great work Rod!!!

ive just flashed this rom my first attempt at miui but it doesnt seem to connect to mobile data only wifi does anyone know how i can fix this thanks

edit nevermind sorted now
[Nexus One Android Development] Franc38:
You probably need to reset manually your APN... that's in settings/system/mobile network settings/Access Point Names.

The first time I used MiUI (and after full wipes) I've needed to go there and select the right one... It's there but not selected by default. After that, all's cool!

If nothing's there or one's selected that doesn't work, you'd probably be better off searching on the net to find what the parameters should be for your specific provider/contract/data plan...

hi i have tried to use the call features while on a call and record the conversation, but it other person does not hear me. i have tried it many times, and when someone calls me and i answer and record the call, i can only hear myself in the recording, not the other person voice. any help would appreciated.
[Nexus One Android Development] skytcam:
thanks for reply i just had to set the carrier my own fault i thought i had gone through it all but missed that setting . thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] kpjimmy:
Go into recovery and wipe only the cache partition and dalvik cache. Reboot and test. Remember to always keep your nandroid handy.
[Nexus One Android Development] lushmoney:
Hi. Is there any way that all of the apps on the screens can be alphabetized? The old style launchers were cool cause it was very easy to find an app if you have LOTS of them cause it was in order. MIUI just sorts them by how you download them and in no specific order. Is there a way to sort all of them alphabetically?? thanks...
[Nexus One Android Development] kpjimmy:
Only way I know is to create a folder, pop them all in one or sort them however you want. Then in the folder there is an option to alphabetically sort them or sort them by most used, or even the default of last downloaded.
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
This is what I do, then place the folder in the middle of the dockbar. Works just like a makeshift app drawer :)
[Nexus One Android Development] vegetaleb:
I flashed Wildmonk kernel and the PC transfer speed bug is gone :D
[Nexus One Android Development] kpjimmy:
+1 well I flashed pershoot's kernel and the folder lag has gone as well.
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
2.8.2 no problems at all to report. Only suggestion would be...start over with installation technique. I installed clean. meaning full wipe of all options from amon 2.2.1 menu 3X each.
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Not sure it is stated here, but pretty sure on just about every MIUI ROM there is, German (Dutch) and US English are the ONLY supported languages. You have to understand that a small group of people work on the language packs you are NOT seeing in a combined ROM. Go to MIUI-DEV for example where many of the OP's (not all) pull the base ROMs and you will see that these are first available as all chinese on the initial flash, then a second language pack is flashed on top where the translations are made. I really doubt you would ever see much more as far as language availability in the near future.
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
I know you have or thought you have seen my posts on this before. Especially for those using Kingston cards which seem to have more issues with this.

With root explorer check your /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb file. (Long press and use text editor) Many ROMs use a Kernel that have this value set to 1 or 4. If you have root explorer (or a file explorer with root privledges) then you should be able to change this value to 128 and save it.

Other s say the following has to do with all .37kernels . My card states 128 so all I can do is pass this info on.

If you or anyone else here has to edit thier settings, they will have to do this on subsequent boots. Some users have written scripts to auto fix this for their given issue.
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
I think you would lose all customizing, but I could be wrong.
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Usual course of how to deal with issues based on upgrade installs. Do a NON upgrade install. Clean install and zero issues. Pretty basic how to fix all these isolated one of a kind issues. IOW...how many other posts have you seen that have the same issue. Not trying to jump on you. Just trying to reduce some of the clutter, based on issues stemming from upgrade installs. They work...sometimes.
[Nexus One Android Development] Franc38:
A large part of the customization is in the framework, I'd say... But yes, there ought to be some in settings.apk too. So that method would just be if a different local is more important to someone than benefiting from all the niceties RoD's cooked us ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
I knew 'WE' (loosely) should have copyrighted this technique :D

Of course I already got one user mad at me on MIUI-AU when the OP there had a ROM with a broken stock launcher, where only ADW or Launcher Pro would work. I voted against that and got an earful, even with suggesting the folder method was what many of us use and why would anyone want an MIUI ROM that had zero stock launcher capability.

Anyways, as much as the D2 release on AU works nicely, Rods customization of miuicamera is unbeatable on all the other ROMs. I still will try the moviestar and Formels release, but it's the camera and the doubling of pixel count. I get consistent 1.8MB pix taking standard indoor shots. All other miuicamera ROMs are generally in the high 600-800kb range. I attach pix with gmail instead of mms which cuts the sizes down ingeneral, and most of my friends I send pix too appreciate the much increased quality.

Hey ROD!!!!. say HI. Brew on it's way. Congrats...you ARE the main squeeze to beat ;);):D
[Nexus One Android Development] Franc38:
You're very right...

There should be a big flashing post (well, there's one on the original RoD's post ;) ) stating that OK, you may go as update (just wipe cache and dalvik)... Yet if anything's not stable or giving weird results, a full wipe and clean install is great... If still having problems, format the SD on top of the full wipe...

If still having problems... Well, that's either a bug in the rom (but there should be many people reporting) or, sadly, a hardware problem.
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
I still say a script should be made to do this automatically. I would really like to make one myself, but without the know-how, all I can do is hope :p

Any devs want to help out? I will donate! :D
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Well, once upon a time, I was one of those users posting about no matter how I installed, I would have low memory. After 6 months of crying on every ROM thread, turns out I did have bad hardware. It did hurt to hear users tell me I MUST not know how to install, since no one else was reporting the issues I saw. (Bad blocks in /data...well over 85Mb of bad blocks)

But that's an isolated issue. For the most part, you would think the obvious that if at first you don't succeed, try again doing it what one really should know as the best alternative to diagnosing an issue. But....:rolleyes:

OK,,,for the quadrant freaks....Just installed Pershoots kernel I see others using boot-cm_2635.11-oc-uv-xtra-btn-aud-ram-neon_fp-020711.zip. SetCPU maxed at 1113 and userspace as the governor. No performance choice. Screen shot below. Smooth as glass and no lags at all

RoD's MiuiMOD for other phone?

Hi, I've been using N1 for more than a year and am quite happy with it especially having RoD's MiuiMOD.

But I might change to another new Android phone later (not sure yet). But it must come with the same MiuiMOD.. can't it's really fantastic.

So is RoD porting his MOD to another phone now? Which one?

Thanks..!
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
As far as I know, Rod only develops for the N1. There are, however, other variations of MIUI on several other phones. Visit the official MIUI forum to see which devices are supported, then check the development forums for the same devices on XDA. Even then, MIUI can be ported to devices not listed. For example, the Acer Liquid E (I only know this because I set it up for one of my friends). Good luck!
[Nexus One Android Development] chris4chelsea:
1 other thing apart from those chinese char, is that my Wifi does not reconnect itself when i travel from home to office or vice versa... also it disconnects from time to time but does not reconnect itself automatically. eventho my wifi sleep mode is set to never already.

have i dont anything wrong or what...

anyone has this issue?
[Nexus One Android Development] myn1:
In System Settings->Personal Password->Password,

After I created a password, it says Press OK when done. But where is the button for "OK"? There's none on the screen or on keyboard!
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
The only time I had this issue is when wifi sleep was on. I could suggest 2 things, although I'm not sure either will work. They are merely suggestions.

1) Enable wifi sleep, reboot, disable.

2) Enable, reboot into recovery, reflash kernel, reboot, disable.

Hopefully it works out for you.
[Nexus One Android Development] MrCDWJR:
i noticed the same thing today so youre not alone. anyone else?
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
+1

I don't use this feature, but seeing as I have a stable install, I checked anyway. And yes, I'm also missing the OK button.
[Nexus One Android Development] myn1:
[pls ignore this]
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
Question: say I wanted to remove the clock from the status bar, how would I do this? There's an option to do it in CM6, so I think it should be possible somehow. I'm comfortable with editing system files, so what would I need to do? :D
[Nexus One Android Development] fni69:
Not only for entering password there is no OK button for PIN entering there is also none :mad:
[Nexus One Android Development] skytcam:
hi peeps can anyone tell me how the fm radio addon differs is it worth installing also i notice battery runs down a little fast should i change kernal opionions much appriciated i love this rom been using it 24 hours . thanks ;)
[Nexus One Android Development] Franc38:
For the radio, I'm not too sure of the real advantages of the new one over the old one, except for a revamped UI and more settings + scan.

Both do work, both allow you to save your prefered stations...

However, as they are fairly small and since we have large app space with the a2SD+ after having moved the cache to SD... I just keep the two of them and use them rather indiferently...

Now, in terms of battery usage, first thing is to check in the settings/system/battery settings/battery use and identify what has sucked in most juice... The MiUI tweeked version of battery use contains plenty of graphs and other indication that might indicate the culprit.

I, for one, have ofter problems with maps... Even if I don't use it, it will run and use the GPS at times, sucking some juice... (might be connected to the geolocation for picture... I'll enquire into that soon).

Another frequent problem is that sometimes wifi prevents the phone from going to sleep when the policy is "on only when screen's on". So setting wifi sleep to "never" actually saves battery most of the time.

Eventually, if you really want to save battery in addition to that, flashing an alternative kernel might be a good idea. I favor Wildmonk's for that reason (among others): it's undervolted and enables underclocking as low as 128k as well as overclocking up to 1152k.

So using WM's latest, in conjunction with setCPU and a profile to OC the phone (on demand between 128 and, say 1113 for stability) when the screen's on plus a profile to underclock (on demand between 128 and 500) when the screen's off will allow to get at the same time good performances and improved battery life.

Keep in mind, however, that the battery life you get depends heavily on the use and the network quality: when I'm home, with good wifi and strong H signal, my phone is usually at 75% at the end of an usual day. When I'm at my office, where the wifi and network reception are weaker, plus I move a bit arround loosing or gaining on these points, I usually end the day with a battery at 60%... for very similar uses.
[Nexus One Android Development] skytcam:
thanks for the detailed reply mate delving into those battery stats it shows so much infomation its great. better than gingerbread . i noticed i lost roughly between 30% to 40% while i was asleep last night i had wifi turned on but the screen was off . il keep an eye out tonight and see what happens before i go about changing kernals . it says 33% for the android os and 30% for display wifi only 3% and the rest is just apps ect . il just bide my time before messing round with it . thanks once again for the reply :)
[Nexus One Android Development] Franc38:
Based on what you say, the first step I'd take would be to put the wifi sleep policy (/settings/common/wifi settings/advanced/wifi sleep policy ) to "never".... and then see what happens. My impression is that wifi should have slept but couldn't, thus maintining the entire phone awake, particularly the "android os". Setting it to "never sleep" allows the rest of the phone to more effectively go to sleep, as crazy as it might sound ;)

That should improve the things and make the big suckage from android os diminish greatly!

And since it's not anything permanent or complex to do (not like flashing a new kernel) you may go back to initial settings easily.

On top of that, putting the phone in "airplane mode" when you sleep could be a good idea, I think. It reduces battery consumptions and prevents you to be awaken by an unexpected notification or phone call... But still the alarm works !
[Nexus One Android Development] skytcam:
cheers mate changed wifi sleep policy to never il see if that helps . thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
I think on every MIUI ROM I have seen this. Usually just reticking the wifi notification gets it started again. Sometimes in G-Mail or Market, I also get a *network error* or no connection...retry and same thing fixes.
[Nexus One Android Development] rodigezstyle:
last MiUi 1.2.25 Update Online & 100% Stable Now...

i think this is the last Froyo Update.. the Next Rodriguezstyle Update this month will be an Gingerbread build...

Great news!!
[Nexus One Android Development] superlantern:
is miui moving to GB in the next release? or are you moving to gb yourself?
[Nexus One Android Development] ryusaeba:
Totally looking forward to it! Thanks so much Rod!!! For the time being, let me go try out 2.8.3:p
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
Very much looking forward to Gingerbread!! New UI too!! :D

For those wondering:

[Nexus One Android Development] android_master:
yes is MIUI moving to GB??
[Nexus One Android Development] skytcam:
can anyone tell me when updating rom if i have to wipe or can i just put it on top coming from previous build .. thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] kpjimmy:
Rule of thumb:

Do a back up and try just wiping the cache partition and dalvik partition 3x's. Then flash the rom and any optional kernels on the previous build. Then remember to do the a2sd commands listed on the OP.

Once rebooted, check your settings, pull down menus and such, if the toolbar is in chinese, simply reboot.
[Nexus One Android Development] skytcam:
ok thanks il give it a go
[Nexus One Android Development] l3nnon:
Dude you just need to wipe cache and dalvik cache 3x, this has been told alot time already @@
[Nexus One Android Development] Franc38:
Great news....

2.8.3 flashed, all's right as usual ;) Great job, RoD!

And I can't wait for the RoDrIgUeZsTyLe Gingerbread-MiUI.... and a new UI on top.... arrggghhhh (drooling like a crazy)

Edit

As for wiping, as they say "your mileage may vary..." Sometimes no wipe at all will be OK (for a little uprage like 2.8.2 to 2.8.3), sometimes just wiping cache and dalvik once is enough (most of the time, actually), sometimes, to be sure, wiping 2 or 3 times' better...

And when you change the style of ROM, or if you have any problem, clean wipe is a must...

Anyway, an up to date nandroid backup and a full apps backup (titanium) is to be maintained whenever you change anything to your ROM.

A full backup of the SD card on the PC/Mac is a good thing to do as well, from time to time...
[Nexus One Android Development] Obsy:

2.8.2 and 2.8.3

Not sure if this happened prior to 2.8 but in the Music Player, the lyrics are in chinese. Anyone know of a fix?
[Nexus One Android Development] ocujos:
I've got a problem with Automatic Brightness: when I turn it on, screen dims to the lowest level, regardless on surrounding light conditions.

I came from Enomther ROM, so I wiped data/cache/dalvik three times. I then installed 2.8.2. Today, I noticed that 2.8.3 was out, so I flashed it, doing all wipes 3x. I've also installed Pershoot and Wildmonks kernels, but the problem persists.

Has anyone else had this issue?
[Nexus One Android Development] kpjimmy:
For one, I never opt for the auto brightness because that kills the battery big time. I usually put mine on manual a little less than half a little more than a quarter brightness. You can get to this by hitting menu>settings>common>display settings. You can adjust the automatic settings in the advanced option.

But if that doesn't work, you'll need a full data wipe and reflash the rom again.
[Nexus One Android Development] Franc38:
Heum... I don't have this problem... Lyrics are in correct English (at least those of the last song I've checked... )
[Nexus One Android Development] kpjimmy:
Well I kinda take it back lol.....I have went through my library and I have to say most of the lyrics are in english. But it's no biggy. GB here we go!
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Oh please. Are you seriously posting this question. Maybe read the OP page one. Maybe read the threads here. Maybe use logic. Maybe.........shaking head......
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
I have seen this before. Usually applying a theme causes this. I have no idea why. But I have seen it after playing around with different themes. Just like sometimes all of a sudden, I have pages of generic icons on pages that had no issues. Apps are no longer installed Again, installing a theme was the cause. I usually reboot once as a first try at fixing. Install a different or same theme on top is a second try. Flashing the rom on top is another try. Wiping Cache and Dalvik-Cache, then reboot is another try (Try at fixing). Clean installing as i should have tried on step one of trying to fix, typically fixes the issue. But I did have to try the easy way....:D
[Nexus One Android Development] smurf2:
guys, do you have location detection issue? I'm using 2.8 after fresh install (full wipe), but I can't get google maps detect my location (using wireless) ..it used to be working normal (when I still used 2.6) ...If I turned on my GPS, it's working fine..this issue only when I use wireless network.
[Nexus One Android Development] bori1030:
is any one getting this bug, cant apply text theme thru manager it applies so it says but text says as default.... been like this since 2.7.2

1.2.25r3 the theme manger does not work with main system theme have reverted to 1.2.19r2.5 everything running beautifully
[Nexus One Android Development] ryusaeba:
Yes I am experiencing the same issue- in auto brightness mode- the screen is so dim that I can barely read what's on the screen; and I don't have a screen protector on my Nexus One so there is nothing blocking the sensor. Personally I stopped using auto brightness and instead set to a fixed brightness (~35-40%), then increase when necessary.
[Nexus One Android Development] chris4chelsea:
Rock Rock Rod! so eager to see the GB build... as u said, its a present for us all this month!! WOW! :D
[Nexus One Android Development] vegetaleb:
Still using MIUI till OTA 2.3.3 get a real and complete custom Rom with lot of goodies and Tb wake after being deceived by CM7, perhaps the next MIUI will do that ;)

have installed 2.8 to 2.8.3 and everything so far is working great~!!!! smooth, no issues ^_^

can't wait for GB builds~!

Very fine release Rod. Back to the old-time rock solid quality as far as I can tell! :p:D
[Nexus One Android Development] sebastie:
my gtalk can't be open, it will auto close in split second.

Any advise?
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Did you clean install or upgrade. My guess is upgrade. I have zero issues with a clean install. Meaning wipe all options x3 and then flash the rom. You can try using an app like Titanium Backup to uninstall, then download from the market and reinstall, but if you did upgrade, then I would suspect you will run into other same problems.
[Nexus One Android Development] joesixpack1969:
Hey Rod, great ROM! wipe + your ROM + appbrain + titanium backup = awesome!

One nasty bug which has been mentioned previously - corporate e-mail policies requiring PIN code entry cannot be satisfied, because the PIN code entry panel is missing the OK button, and I sit there looking fairly silly staring at a "click OK" with no OK to click :)
[Nexus One Android Development] erikclaw:
Everything seems to be working, but my volume is about half of what it used to be. Can't firgure out why. Also set cpu, handcent sms force close and i just uninstalled to stop it. When I go to the mkt and click my apps it shows two, not the 40 or so on the phone. Have searched my to no avail. Also where do you download kernel pershot 2.6.35.11 ? the link has kernels I know nothing about.
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
First part, no idea. Could just be a bad flash? I honestly don't know what to tell you

But as far as the kernel goes, click here. Next time, just search for Nexus :p
[Nexus One Android Development] erikclaw:
i just rewiped everything, and reinstalled again. Now seems to be working correctly. Volume normal, mkt showing apps. Should have done that long ago instead of run in circles. lol thanks
[Nexus One Android Development] erikclaw:
LOL the search part makes sense. Long day:mad::o
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
lol no problem :p I'm honestly finding slightly better battery life on the WM kernel, however. just thought I'd add that.
[Nexus One Android Development] erikclaw:
cool, well facebook hasn't worked since I installed the rom this morning. I uninstalled it to reinstal from mkt but says unsuccessful when installing. Incompatible update.

Never mind, figured it out. Fixed permissions.
[Nexus One Android Development] Bloodflame:
In case you do have more problems, it's been noted many times lately that a typical fix is 3x wipe of everything (or more). Even a re-partition of your microsd card could help. waiting 5-10 minutes after the first boot, then rebooting right away is a good idea as well.

wish you the best of luck :)
