This ROM is awesome!! Beer on the way!

I had issues with Launcher Pro Plus with the app drawer, but uninstalled with titanium backup, rebooted, then reinstalled like mentioned above. It worked fine until I imported my settings from Launcher Pro backup, then app drawer went back to acting flaky. I changed settings to 4 columns, and removed te 3D drawer option(it was experimental). All is perfect now so it must have just been the weird settings I had!!

Keep up the great work!!!

Menu works for me on those apps. It's a roll up and down menu. On Maps, it should automatically open showing search, directions, Starred Places, Clear Map ,Join Latitude in a vertical menu that will still scroll up vertically and shows Labs, help, Terms Privacy&Notices and about at the bottom of the scrollable vertical menu.
[Nexus One Android Development] TheShoura:
Woooow what a boneheaded mistake I made :p I didn't realise the menu scrolled

I been flashing ROM's since iPhone (1st gen) came out, played with the G1 for a year and a half, now this :p

after finding it, I really like this new menu style!
[Nexus One Android Development] cqms13:
Well, im laughing at this cos I did the exact same thing this morning:o:):)
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
I wish we could reorder the menu. For example I think with Handcent, do delete a thread you are forced to scroll up more to get to settings I would rather have a quicker access to, such as delete. Not the end of the world. I also went from Iphone for several years to N1, and now it's like going backwards. Anybody have an app that can better deal with organizing approx 13 home screens of apps. Really hard to keep track of.
[Nexus One Android Development] godjunior:
Facebook still doesn't sync on my phone after flashing 1.1, anybody expericing the same thing?

Also, i can't connect to secured network.
[Nexus One Android Development] Lumsdoni:
Reloaded all my apps and got launcher pro setup as I want and nandroided. Looking forward to playing with the miui screens tomorrow

One thing I noticed is contextual menus on dolphin browser (long press) are black text on black menu!

Only app does this so far.

ADW, or LauncherPro that came with the rom. i tried dealing with the "unlimited" screens the first couple hours, but i gave up and installed a launcher with an app menu. not having the apps organized in a collection was driving me crazy. ADW with this rom is great. i was getting a scrolling bug in launcherpro after i enabled the "3d launcher".
[Nexus One Android Development] TheShoura:
I get scroll bug on this rom only too, with 3D enalbed

I tried Evil's NXSense, KoR 1.0, CM6 - all were fine
[Nexus One Android Development] b33zy682:
the dev that made launcher pro has been informed
[Nexus One Android Development] TheShoura:
Glad to hear it :D

Facebook sync is broken in MIUI, hence SyncmyPix being installed to pull your contact pictures from it.

I can connect to a WPA2 Enterprise network and a regular WPA just fine. Check you don't have a proxy enabled.

:-) Nevermind, its still there in Settings/Battery. I was looking in preferences for it. Sorry
[Nexus One Android Development] dRaCID01:
look in the folder, with that "chinese Signs" :D
[Nexus One Android Development] Dai323:
You guys know you can rename the "folder box" with the Chinese signs right? That folder is also useful for putting apps in that you dont use alot, as it seems you can put an unlimited number of apps inside it!

Anyway, after running the ROM for a few hours now, I really REALLY like it. Very nice work on this one man. 132 apps installed, and still 140mb internal memory left :)
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
First. I normally do all the partitioning stuff before I even copy files back to the fat32, but I don't see this as your issue. I use the USB mount from recovery for the file copying, but that's neither here nor there, so I think this is OK

Next, you mention wiping several times. What are you using specifically for recovery. I advise ONLY using Amon 2.2.1 and NOT clockwork. Clockwork has been know to cause all sorts of problems with a prper MIUI install. Not saying that it doesn't work. Am saying that it just makes it easier for us to eliminate this as a source.

Next. No mention of using a format utility. Highly recommend since no recovery will format or wipe the system partition. Any remnants can cause issues. Now...the following is extremely important. I had in the past posted a signed format.zip utility that would format the following 2x

boot

system

data

cache

After doing the format via flashing the zip file, you would then go back and use Amon and wipe several times all the options pertaining to partitions. (not battery or the other reference) But...on this ROM, the boot partition wipe with the utility somehow interacts with Rods specific version ROM that uses data2ext, so one would end up with ONLY booting to a boot loader. (The fix for this is to copy back a nandroid backup, then run a restore, BTW)

This format.zip signed utility will work on any NON data2ext ROM. So it can be useful for a2sd, or CM7, or any other MIUI, or Gingerbread, etc etc.

I modified the signed format.zip file and uploaded it to a mirror on hotfile. I will post the link at the bottom. This modified file is called Formatdatasystemcache.zip or some close to that :) Notice it will NOT format the boot partition. So you can safely use this modded utility that will format 2x each the system, data, and cache partitions. Then do the wipes and proceed.

I have seen the UID messages and believe it's just a failed install for whatever reason.

Finally, Rods ROM has a wifi issue that affects some...not all here. It affected me. It was NOT fixable no matter what I did. I ended up offering an alternative FAQ for having a data2sd setup that uses your whole EXT just as Rods, but you use an a2sd version, then install, flash a file that kills a2sd script, flash another file that installs the new script, then good to go. Please see message # 8936 for more info and FAQ on this. I am using this now and it works with NO issues.

Link to my modded format utility below. It is NOT signed. Please turn off sig verification when running this or it will abort with an error.

I can confirm also that your method works great, i flashed the latest stock miui + lang pack, wildmonks kernel, and the other scripts, restored all my apps and my phone is running very smooth no lags, rock solid after a few restarts, Quadrant score is around 1800's.

Thank you Doc for all the information and help :)
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
It's the %^&^%Black theme. Change the theme and rotation flies. I just tested this. I was using Rod's black theme on MIUI 1.5.27 and it was horribly slow also.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
So Doc:

Should I wait for the .27 version of ROD's for all the issues to be fixed or go with your method with the stock?
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Good deal. Stay away from the Black theme. Just noticed that it was causing the rotation laggs. Just tried another theme and now I'm a happy camper especially just trying to text and shifting from landscape to portrait. Hmmmm just notice I could send a text in landscape. I think this was a new add for 1.5.27 Maybe my brain is fried. Have to look it up. I think I used to have to go to portrait to send using stock message app.
[Nexus One Android Development] loggie1:
Sorry doc, I was aware that in v3.3 wifi was not working but I didn't think by nand-restoring v3.2 or even clean installing v3.2 or 1.5.27 for that matter that there would still be a wifi problem. Lots to learn. Thanks for your help.

I'll try your 1.5.27 method when I get back.
[Nexus One Android Development] xdapimp:
yeah i noticed the lag with the black theme, thanks for the tip, i'm using another one and happy with the rotation time, and as far as i remember i could always text in landscape mode with miui previous versions.
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
It's a matter of how much you like doing this stuff :)

I have not heard from Rod since the release. Kind of surprises me, but nothing unusual. His data2EXT is different scripting I have the feeling from the one I posted. Not saying one is any better than the other. Just a point. I happen to like the ability to take an a2sd rom, remove the a2sd scripting via built in a2sd remove commands and also using the kill file associated with my version I referenced. Plus beside the initial install files, there's a reinstall file that is supposed to be used if one flashed a newer base on top. I'm not so sure that will work. I also happen to normlly just go thru a complete clean install. So, Nandroid, then try the easy way of flashing new ROM as upgrade via caches wipe, run the kill file again, then run the reinstaller script, instead of the initial script. If that fail, then you are all set knowing you have a nandroind backup as well as the tools to run a new install which is pretty quick.

Finally....stock does NOT have Rod's Mods. How important is that to you.? Also, I know that these scripts sometimes break on a modded Rom. The 1.5.27 is stock, so I expected it to work which it does.

My plans...wait for the next release from Rod. Hopefully he will post two updates...an a2wsd as well as a data2ext.

1. Try data2ext. If it works...great if it doesn't....step 2.

2. Install Rods a2sd ROM and use the FAQ on it to strip out a2sd and install the data2sd stuff. If it runs fine....great. If it doesn't...step 3

3. Use MIUI-DEV latest stock and do my data2sd conversion.

If you notice....two of these favor Rod and one of three favor me. obviously I would prefer a modded setup that uses "a" form of data2EXT/data2sd

Clear as Mississippi mud :D
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
There shouldn't be a wifi issue with 1.5.27. I can't confirm with Rods3.2 since I never used it to know. If you had a good working setup with 3.2 and nand restore brings out the wifi problem not seen before, then it sounds like bits and pieces still left. Many people do NOT normally format or wipe prior to a nandroid restore. I do. Therefore, I highly advise using the modded Format utility I referenced , followed by wipes with amon, then try a restore again. When you get a chance, try the restore again, if you still have it and you know that wifi was working, but use the method i mentioned. Then go ahead and use the new install. I know...work, but not that much extra to try. Thanks.....
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Thanks for the confirm on texting. Been using so many different ROMs and sms apps etc I get a little laggy on my brain at times :)

I new the Black Theme had issues in the past, but had assumed that it was fixed. I guess not since I see a huge difference. I know that users on MIUI have posted before the wish to have the home screen work in landscape too. That would be nice also. I'm still hoping for trackball answer and TB hangup, myself.

New ROM Mod by Doc?

Hey Doc,

BIG thank you for your continuos support and sharing of your tips and info.

I am just wondering. What is holding you back from modding your own Miui-ROM and sharing it with us here? I am sure many here will agree that you will be one heaven of an OP :)

What say you guys? let us run a vote here.

All in favor of Doc-MiUi-ROM, say AYE!
[Nexus One Android Development] jonno2k:
Ahhhhh thanks so much! Or as somebody else suggested, I turned it off. I didn't even know that app existed.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
I like modded roms that give you speed and flexibility.

I tend to like MIUI over CM7 in general.

I like fiddling with stuff, but don't have the time to extract pieces from one rom to another.

That's why it would be GREAT if you can upload your modded MIUI-Dev rom that you are using! :D

Or if not, I'm fine with stock MIUI + D2E.
[Nexus One Android Development] loggie1:
I tried a couple of nand restores I had from a while back. One a cm7 and the other miui. They booted fine but still wifi network error as before. I ran the format utility 3/4 times and also wiped all 5/6 times. The wifi connects and the wifi icon appears in place of the 3g as normal but then "network error".

Now to try docs method...
[Nexus One Android Development] hughey2k2:
I haven't had any 3g or wifi issues with the new partition and 4x wipe on v3.3 D2ext
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
But then I couldn't go out on the threads offering help. I have thought about it, but me thinks I am better at doing what I do now. Originally, Rod had asked my opinion on going with a mod using these newer scripts. I became familiar a while back because I had a ton of bad blocks on my N1 and had horrendous issues with installing ROMs, especially the mega sized Sense ROMs. Basically it's been OJT for me...on the job training. Appreciate the thoughts. I'll keep it on the backburner thoughts for now :D
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Must be something that some of us have that others don't. Or simply a slight hardware variation causing issues. I ran my clean install a number of times and I absolutely came up with the same errors that others here report...the wifi giving off a vague message about obtaining IP address, than basically not turning on. 100% repeatable and no manner of kernel changes did me any good. Doesn't matter. We go thru weekly updates anyways.......
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
My current setup is pretty darn close to the FAQ I posted. I reverse engineered so to speak some of the stuff I have seen in Rod's or added some stuff I like that I pulled from Rods or from other ROMs. My time is limited too, which is a major factor preventing me from actually creating and uploading and supporting all on my own.
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
Is that it?

Hi Doc,

Since I was not doing much last night, so I decided to install Rod’s v3.3 D2Ext. I installed v3.3 rom with a twisted (since so many people complained about the 2 ext4 setup).

Here is what I did, format my 8 GB in the “phone”, setup 120 MB swap-Linux, setup 1.3 GB ext2 (then upgrade to ext3, then to ext4). That’s it, no gpart what so ever – just did the whole thing in the phone with RA 2.2.1 recovery.

Wipe data, cache, dalik-cache 3 times each, flash the rom; 10 minutes later (after 2 boot loops), the rom is up and running, titanium restored my 200+ apps back, still showing 1.15 GB internal storage. The rom had been running great the last 24 hours, fast, stable, smooth and no FC. (Must better than D2W and speed is very comparable to X-Part or a2sd). I did this for my own (experiment only). It’s working (for me) so someone can try the rom with existing setup if they want to. But don’t blame me if it doesn’t work, they should follow Rod’s installation instruction. I believe the key thing is to start the installation with a “clean” state (I remembered the X-part did not call for extra ext4 and was working great for me with my existing setup).

By the way, Rod’s rom is great. Thank You.

I have a issue with, camera ..when I take a picture it freezes then ask me to close it...then when I load it again says it can't find camera
[Nexus One Android Development] loggie1:
Hi doc, still trying to get my wifi sorted. I've unzipped bcm4329.ko to tools in AndroidSDK. I remounted the phone successfully and keyed in your 2nd command but I get "cannot stat 'bcm4329.ko' :No such file or directory". I've obviously done something wrong. Directory prompt is C:\AndroidSDK\tools>

The wifi connects to the router ok but when I try to access the market it will not load and comes back with a network error. I think this maybe different from the problem you had where it wasn't even connecting.

Any help much appreciated.

EDIT: I sorted the adb push problem put it in wrong directory, now to see if I can get wifi sorted

EDIT2: Still no luck with wifi after the above push and flashing. Tried a clean install of 1.5.27 using format utility and wipes . Booted up ok but still getting a "network error"
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
That's the basic building block starting point. I would grab language pack b for those that do not know an update came out. And i did post that for those that did the FAQ already, they can flash update Language pack and it will not affect the setup.
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Some of us have wifi issues with the rom. Some don't. I'm still wondering where Rod disappeared to. I basically am using the data2sd script I mentioned a long time ago to you. It's just a variation of the same Rod is using. And I knew already from past experience a single EXT would work. There's something in the way it is supposed to interract that supposedly in theory boosts the I/O. Who knows for sure. I could not find one fefinitive write up on the pros and cons of One EXT vs two. I did find info on ext2 vs 3 vs 4. Some state that EXT2 is the fastest. But I also read something about it will easily lose the information stored under certain situations, while ext3 or 4 will somehow avert this issue. Then there's a ton of stuff on journaling and how each uses it to it's advantage or disadvantage. Basically too deep for the average person to comprehend, including me. I do have an Electronics Engineering and Biological sciences background. (I can recognize bugs in a ROM when I see it :) Couldn't pass up melding Bio Sci with Engineering :rolleyes:

Right now, I am going to wait for Rod's next. If I have time, I may try your method, but realistically, I have 1.5.27 running with absolutely zero issues and all the space I would ever need. BTW..if you are running Rods ROM, are you still using his Black Theme? And if so, is you rotation capability on the slow side. Change the theme and see how much faster it reacts when turning from portrait to landscape.
[Nexus One Android Development] Docmjldds:
Hmmm...this is a different issue than the wifi problem I had with Rods. Is this your home setup and if so, can you confirm your wifi is running OK. A simple reboot sometimes. Does your home computer or another device see the wifi router/modem or whatever you are using at your residence.

Confirm with a nandroid backup using another ROM that wifi is working. Sure sounds like something else. I clean installed 1.5.27 and basically went hog wild testing maybe 6 kernels this morning, just to see what would score the best quadrant. Yes, I was bored :) I basically flashed them with no wipes. Just flashed and they all worked with no problem which is why I have the feeling it may be something else.

1. Shut the wifi down for a few minutes and restart it. If still an issue, try a nandroid back to a good working setup. Or even flash a quick CM7 nightly or final. Whatever it takes to prove the wi fi on your phone does not have a hardware problem, coincidentally or your home setup is working correctly.

This is what I would do based on your previous tries.
[Nexus One Android Development] lcchan1:
I was running 1.5.27 since Friday and it was great and no issue at all. (I haven't missed Rod's MIUI rom, so I just have to try his 1.5.20, my wifi was working in 1.5.20).

I am going to switch back to Sense 1.4 tonight.

Good luck to your wifi issue.
[Nexus One Android Development] stewroids:
I'm quite new to this D2EXT thing.

I've been using this ROM for a long time - and I usually just do a full wipe, and flash the .zip file that I download. Do I still follow that process, or is it completely different now?
[Nexus One Android Development] ultra99:
Great job, man! It worked well, however, when i open file explorer or any application, it's kinda slow. Any ideas?

My sd card is class 6, and I tested with a program and said its speed exceeds class 10. Not sure what that means or if it's accurate or not.
[Nexus One Android Development] rottenjello138:
So I installed a "light" theme to get rid of the rotation bug with Rod's dark theme, but now I get force closes every time I try to access any type of settings. I read somewhere else that deleting some of the theme png's would solve the problem but i'm not sure which ones to delete. Any ideas?
[Nexus One Android Development] loggie1:
Resetting my home router did the trick. Stange how my laptop was working fine off the same network all the time my phone wifi was giving a network error.

Hey guys, i've been having problems with most miui roms. The problem is that when ever I get a call nobody can hear me. I have the dewonkificator running but I don't know. Any help?
[Nexus One Android Development] nealed:
Doc, you're a legend. You were always there providing support in formels ROM thread and here also - thank you on behalf of the community for your unwaivering support.

The reason behind me copying data before creating the other partitions was that I had a rather strange behaviour partitioning the sd card in Parted Magic - when I tried to format the big FAT32 partition - and copy data - it ended up partitioning the linux swap partition - I tried this in windows (the fat32 format) after creating partitions in Parted Magic and also directly in Parted magic - seems there was some confusion over the partition ids or something strange like that - This happened twice!? - anyway, as you say, not the culprit here.

I only use Amon's recovery - clockwork has given me problems on my N1 and other devices.

I tried wiping and flashing again as I said I would try - sorted out the regional settings - but I have the WiFi issue (unless I set my IP address manually - which is OK for home - but won't be any good for work - shame.

Lastly, regarding the UID error - I guess that by formatting the partitions as you suggest - I should be able to clear that. Which begs the question as to why the custom recoveries do not provide this functionality. I have, in fact never formatted my partitions - only ever wiped so I'll keep this zip on my SD card for the future.

I am also suffering the rotation issue - and am having great difficulty downloading the 15MB theme file - sooooooooo slow!

Anyway, I'm going to give it another shot.

Again - thanks very much for you help

Thanks. I tried a slew of hacks supposedly that would allow Netflix to run on the Sense Rome. Didn't work for me. Hacks were referred to as Fenny something or other. That's the main reason I probably will stay away for the Sense ROM on a permanent basis, although I still prefer Sense to any ROM out there. I guess the update was just posted. Have to see what's new. Didn't see anything changed yesterday.
