Force Close with LauncherPro - ??

I have a weird bug. Am running MIUI 1.6.3 with LauncherPro Plus. Everything seems stable (only been a couple of days) EXCEPT: when phone first turns on or goes through a fresh reboot, sometimes LauncherPro FCs when I first unlock the phone. Once if FCs once, it then runs perfect.

So basically I have a totally usable phone aside from this weird FC issue on LauncherPro after bootup.

Only idea I have it so totally re-install the ROM, and don't use Titanium Backup to restore any apps (I did NOT restore data - only apps). Kind of a pain but doable. Just not sure if it will fix the problem.

Any help / thoughts appreciated.

Loving this ROM....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
I've been having that with LP for a while. It doesn't quite force close, I get a dialoge to FC or wait if I try to do anything on the home screen. If I wait it is fine but it takes awhile. It is 100% of the time. It also happens with CM7 so I don't think it is a MIUI problem.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] past_pluto:
LP will FC every single time if you try to use your phone before it fully loads up. SOmething about how it caches the homescreens for super fast scrolling.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TheWhiteBandito:
I just want to add that LPP closing has happened to me on every AOSP rom. It's normal, once it force closes it's all good

[Droid Incredible Android Development] carlbettag:
thanks!

marcmarshall - past_pluto - TheWhiteBandito: Thanks very much. What you're saying makes total sense to me... I've been using LPP with sense and sense-less ROMs - this is the first AOSP ROM I've used. Interestingly, this is NOT a problem on sense or sense-less ROMs...

I agree that it seems to be a problem IF LPP doesn't have enough time on startup or if I 'rush' it after boot up or restart.

I'll play around with this a bit. Mostly it's good to know that there's nothing 'wrong' and that it does not make sense to re-install from scratch (or that doing so won't change the behavior).

If anyone else has similar input, I'll take it but otherwise I'll consider this to be the answer.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
I used MIUI back in the Froyo days. I recall ALL the icons having the "square" background.

But now I just flashed the latest, and most of them I installed from Titianum don't.

Is there an option to get them all to have that square behind them?

Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RyanTX:
Download an icon pack that has square backgrounds. I was using one for weeks, can't remember the name though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SethAC:
Yay, I like MIUI.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Bullhead00:
I installed 1.2.4 through ROM manager, did a full wipe. When it booted up, my apps immediately started installing from the market. I started getting multiple force closes from titanium and a few other apps. I've never had that happen with any other rom. I usually go through and install my apps from the market manually, and a few apps through titamium without restoring data. Another weird thing, when I was using Root Explorer to look at some pictures, when I clicked the picture I wanted to open, it would bring up a different picture from another folder. Just some weird issues.

Also, when I rebooted, I was still getting force closes and my settings weren't sticking. For example, I use multicon widget and my app shortcuts would disappear, leaving the multicon widget with empty shortcuts. I'm back to my rEVO 2.1.3 for now. I really like MIUI, but I can't have my phone acting up because I use it at work regularly.

Anyone know why I might be having these issues?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] paintguy:
Possible remedy

I installed Miui with the older version of rom manager a few days ago and had no problems. In fact I loved it. I started having similar problems as you stated after I updated to RM v3.0.0.5, in fact my phone went to hell. I switched to the alternate recovery and have had zero install and usage problems.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] khanam:
if any of you had a partitioned sd card, miui 1.2.4 did not play nice with it, thats why a2sd and dalvik2cache have been removed in this version. i am going to get the update again. i doubt i will face the issues i did in the previous rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Bullhead00:
I suspected that after thinking about it. I even had issues restoring my backup when I was on 3.0.0.5. My HTC Calender widget was missing, started getting random FCs, and under the add to home menu some things were showing as missing. I reverted back to CWM 2.5.1.2 and it restored fine. Weird. Guess all that orange was screwing things up.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chris98891:
i've got this from time to time....and i'm definitely holding off on updating to CWM 3.0.0.5

still running 1.2.4
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ThugEsquire:
I updated to CWM 3.0.0.5 and then flashed MIUI and MIUI now force closes constantly and I can't even get unrevoked to recognise the phone when it's in USB debugging. Not sure I'm ever going to have a working phone again.

Lol, just fixed permissions and now I'm much better off.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] converge12:
awesome.. does this fix the glitchy keyboard?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ogrosticlops:
finally have it working.. after various attempts from just about every angle, I had all but given up, but decided to give it one last go.. flashed the rom, then flashed the 2.6.37 AOSP tst34 kernel and rebooted.. It has been working flawlessly since then.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] muaddib20:
Cwm 3.0 is for gingerbread roms. That's why there are issues.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] syde1020:
keyboard closing

does anyone know if the issue with the closing keyboard has been fixed?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Atlas.rouge:
Also, every time I call out on my phone, people can't hear me still. But they can hear me if they call me. Radio issue?

I can't find the new link btw. Only says 1.2.4, no 1.2.11 that I can see.

Sent from my HTC Incredible running MIUI.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
It redirects to the miui site that has a sticky of the newest one. So the link is 1.2.11, just hasn't had the text on the link updated.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Atlas.rouge:
I did a direct flash over my 1.2.4 build and got a screwed up language pack... when will these become straight flashovers lol? Or did I miss something? I might have... but from what I read in the changelog, the new build doesn't add on anything that essential.

What I'd really like to know is why every time I dial out, no one can hear me, but receiving calls everything's fine. Thoughts?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] converge12:
sounds like a specific problem on your phone.

just wipe and flash again..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wowthatisrandom:
thats def something with your specific phone. i woudl recommend full wipe factory restore... then reload miui and see where that gets u
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Atlas.rouge:
I can back up settings and crap before that, right? And should I do factory restore like from hboot, or just do wipes from CWM? Thanks in advance!

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Caligirl2828:
I love the MIUI rom, however, I have issues with proximity sensor and my cheek hitting the touch screen during calls, which then leads to accidentally hanging up, calling someone else (during current call), muting, etc. the Droid tools don't work for this, because of the one click green notification bar that send me back to the call screen. Is anyone else have this issue? Is there something I can do to prevent accidental screen touches while in call?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TheR1Rob:
i f***** love this rom, man!!! Miui is sick!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 5thAgent:
You only need to do wipes in Clockwork recovery. However, after doing a wipe, I recommend manually reconfiguring settings so you don't just re-install whatever borked setting you wiped to get rid of.

Check in call settings and enable the "enable proximity sensor" option... lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miguel11691:
Is 1.2.11 newer than version 1.2.4... if so why is it a lower number... confused faced... also what ha the best kernel for this rom...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Atlas.rouge:
I thought this too... I think the numbers represent the year, then month, then day (1=11 I guess). But that's just the pattern I've noticed. The big thing for me is that they're dated in order.

Best kernel = chad's 37 Froyo. For me, that gave awesome battery life & performance. It's not perfect though, but it's sure worth a try XD

hey my camera was working but is stop recording it will still take pic but not recording help I love this rom I got this rom on my driod inc and it is work very good
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jiggadroid:
How is it a lower number? 11 is greater than 4 which is the last part.

Sent from my HTC Incredible
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ianxcom:
.4 is greater than .11

.04 would be less than .11
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miguel11691:
My point exactly
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miguel11691:
Is it normal for my battery to die this quickly... I'm on 66 percent and I took it off at 620 in the morning off the charger after rebooting after deleted the batterystat.bin
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miguel11691:
Now I'm on 62 percent
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miguel11691:
Now I'm on 54 percent... when I recharge the phone does it have to be off or on when recalibrating
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trillonometry:
i have had a lot of luck with my battery life with the 2.6.37 incredikernel for froyo

i've only had it on for a few hours but noticed a difference anyway
[Droid Incredible Android Development] caleris:
I'm using the same kernel and have also been getting very good battery life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] theguy386:
going to give incredikermel a try. Are you guys running setCPU as well? lately I've been used to letting the kernels do their thing without tweaking my settings
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scottjb:
I tried this ROM and used Conap's CPU BoostPro to create a screen off profile. I think it helped with battery life. I imagine setCPU would help too.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Grex25:
The last two numbers are the date it was released. Ver.Month.Day
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Steveo321:
where do you get the update for this rom I don't use cwm and is there a update out?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wezzybman:
Does anyone know if miui-dev.com is down? I know markhuk (site admin) was talking about making some changes to the site, but he wasn't going to make it unavailable to everyone was he? Thanks for any replys!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] titans808:
Its working perfectly fine for me
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dgwood12:
I am wanting to try this Rom but I love launcher pro and its widgets. What will I lose on the Rom by running launcher pro? I would run stock miui but I love the people widget launcher pro has. Anyone know any good alternatives that I could replace it with?

Sent from my Droid Incredible
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scottjb:
Not sure I would bother running LauncherPro on this ROM. You might as well stay with a stock CM ROM with LauncherPro. You will lose the MIUI launcher and home screen, which IMHO, is the major part of using this ROM. The other big things are the graphics--quite different from a CM or Sense ROM. Do a nandroid and try it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dgwood12:
It's not necessarily the launcher I like. I just like the sense style widgets. Like the people widget. If anyone could recommend a good people widget alternative I think I could ditch LP all together...

Sent from my Droid Incredible
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dougdirt:
"Photo Contact Widget"

It's exactly like the LP one.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Lynx83:
Colorize Widget is a great alternative to not using LP+.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dougdirt:
Yes, that's what I use on AOSP roms.

Colorize widget for facebook and twitter.

Photo Contact widget for contacts.

ADW Ex and it's all good.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dgwood12:
Says it only works with a launcher that provide scrolling widgets...

[Droid Incredible Android Development] thejosher:
Sounds like a big update. Flashing now :D

Thanks to all of the devs for their work on this ROM. It's simply mindblowing the progress you make each week! Google could learn a thing or two, and that's saying something.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Caligirl2828:
That was the first thing I did...still had issues. I assume that when I use my phone in a room that is almost completely dark, it throws off the sensor? And although that green "touch too return to call"status bar is pretty snappy, it doesn't help when my cheek touches it, :sighs: well I still love miui, but I must say that as of now CM7 is doing a great job at distracting me from miui :-P
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Longship:
Backup App

I just made the switch from MIUI to CM7 and was wondering what the back app was in MIUI and whether it can be used in another ROM?

Regards.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] itch808:
Why the switch? I'm actually thinking of doing the verse, CM7-> MIUI

The lack of touch to focus camera and some other little niggles are bothering me about CM7
[Droid Incredible Android Development] smoonyheim:
I too am debating switching from cm7, i'm currently on nightly 3.

I'm digging it, but I'm also a rom whore and need my fix.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Longship:
MIUI just didn't seem to run right. Interface was great but there were little nuances that just told me it was time to try another ROM :)

CM7, thus far, is very fast. I wasn't aware of the lack of a focus camera so that may be a deal breaker for me but I want to give it a fair shake.

Is the backup app in MIUI one that can be installed on another ROM? I'd like to recover some of my SMS messages from the backup if possible.

Who knows, I may end up going back to MIUI...we'll see.

Thanks for the replies.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miguel11691:
im having time issues with messages when i recieve the pop message the time is like 5 hrs behind but the time is correct on the main menu screen.. is there a way to fix this
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thejosher:
Go into advanced settings in the SMS app and turn off the setting that's named something akin to 'sort messages by sent time'..

As a side note, I seem to be getting GREAT battery life with this latest release. I've been off the charger for nearly 7 hours and am still at 73%. :D I've never seen anything close to this on a sense ROM, and it seems to be improved even from prior versions of MIUI. The new battery monitoring is great, also. Lets me keep an eye on any rogue programs that might be abusing the battery.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] toomie05:
i was wondering how you get such battery with your phone i can barely last 3/4 of a day!? tips :D this rom is amazing btw!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] itch808:
Could someone post the .apk for the MIUI camera and gallery? They're two things that I would love to try on CM7 to see if they work.

ive been looking at this thread for a lil while now and im kinda a noob to this kinda stuff...right now im running redemptive rom and lou #4 kernel (haven't really updated in a while) but im looking for something different...can anyone tell me what will i have to change to run this rom? is my current kernel good for this rom? and what will i loose or gain from switching to this rom from my current one?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thejosher:
I disable syncing for everything but Google and Facebook contacts... set the weather update intervel to a few hours... turn auto brightness off and instead set it at a minimal but comfortable indoor level (auto can be turned on if necessary for outdoors using the dropdown toggle)...

I also don't use the phone very heavily during the day because I'm at work or in class all day, tho.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Bullhead00:
Is there a bookmarks widget like the sense one anywhere? That and the HTC calender widget are the main things I miss.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 20twins10:
Jsmoove - flashing the Rom will change your kernel to whatever is in the rom. If Lou's 4 is an aosp kernel, then you can always flash after you install the Rom..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rayporsche:
Well I don't know about the bookmarks but there is an app in the market called 'Pure Grid calendar widget' which offers various calendars and the HTC is among them. It is not a free but still a very nice one. Lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] juttschallenger:
Been running this rom for a couple months now. Running 1.2.19 now but from the last couple of updates, for some reason I am unable to recive MMS. Get the message with the download button but when you click on the download button it turns grey but never downloads the pic.

Is this a known issue or is there something else that I can do?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] juttschallenger:
Anybody? Other then that, rom works perfect
[Droid Incredible Android Development] vigordesign:
Does anyone know if it's possible to customize the power control widget bar in the notification drop down? I've noticed that sometimes they change spots, but can't tell when or how they do it. I thought maybe it was theme driven but one just moved spots since yesterday and I haven't changed themes.

Any ideas?

Thanks!! :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] warttack:
it changes with usage, the more you use the items more to the left they go.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] vigordesign:
Interesting. Thanks!! I suppose there no way to pin them into one position or another, right?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] warttack:
for YOU and EVERYONE having issues with MMS, as for some it works and some it doesnt i think i know what the issue might be. Next release (friday night/saturday morning) ill try and fix it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 20twins10:
Just came to miui. And have no problems getting picture messages.

With miui being aosp, is it possible to grab parts of other aosp roms? She one thing is like to see in here would be an app drawer.. the app drawer from liquid metal is super sick.. id love to have that here..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] vigordesign:
I don't know anything about if it's possible or not, but I personally just use a folder as an app drawer. It works perfectly for me. Just stick all of your apps that don't go on your home screens or in other folders, in the main apps folder.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] warttack:
Android is not Lego. And miui is not open source so until they start providing source code all ill do is port. Ill fix what I can to make it work. But don't ask me to make a frankenrom out of miui cuz I wont. It has enough mods to make it look better already.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Bullhead00:
I can't get Swype to work for anything. I downloaded the installer, used it to download Swype. When I try to use it, it doesn't "swype" the words. After that, it says that it won't because it's not for my phone or whatever. The installer tries to get me to disable it, but you can't disable it through settings. So that's where I get stuck at. Has anyone been able to get it working?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] h3llas:
Does anybody else see a slowdown in this? It works for me great for a few days then gets laggy .. any suggestions? Running it with base kernel and yes I close my apps.. I did even use a task manager to kill some operations to make it free up ram. If I could get it running smooth again I'd keep it
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cliffzwj:
you should always turn on the “battery monitor ” in system config(the official solution)

你必须到系统设置里面把电池监控一直打开，否则机器每半个小时会变得非常卡
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NellyG:
What does battery monitoring help in the case of laggy performance?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NellyG:
I turned on battery monitoring and the lag went away. I'm curious as to why though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] topaz330:
any chance verizon vvm works with this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cliffzwj:
acording to the official web,it caused by the initial data of the battery monitor, it let the cpu run always

and the MIUI Ver1.2.25 was released today
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bkrickles:
can someone please explain for a stupid person like me exactly where and how to turn on battery monitor?

Thanks in advance
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cliffzwj:
进入系统设置-->系统--->电量

you will find it
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
ummm

had to google translate that one..

"Go to System Settings -> System ---> electricity"

The 'electricity' translation looks wrong but you should be able to find it from there though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] theguy386:
is the battery monitor only in .19? I'm still running .11 and cant seem to find that option anywhere?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 20twins10:
flasked both invisiblek & tiamat and not getting anything more then 2 on multitouch.. not that its ever really necessary..

anyone else experiencing this??
[Droid Incredible Android Development] khanam:
if cwr > 2.5.0.5, multitouch breaks irrespective of kernel
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Steveo321:
Just asking but is this 1.12.25 the update on this rom for the incredible?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rayporsche:
If you are actually referring to 1.2.25 = Miui v0.6 (1.2.25).....yes ! it is for the Incredible.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Steveo321:
Yes ok thanks if you are running this new update how is it working for you?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rayporsche:
Cannot get into details because I am not currently using that update, after trying 1.11 then 1.19 and so on......with various issues and no bluetooth I've just gave up until there is a real 'changelog' variation. Currently running 1.28.1 with everything working very smooth, mms and all, fast with kernel #28, stable without even one f/c, iphone 4 theme and added the Twitter app from the 1.19., Everything seems to be going very well. Awesome ROM ! great job from the developers !
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bkrickles:
I have been running 1.2.25 since yesterday and everything works. I'm even using the stock kernel, although I'm going to try chad's newest later as it was great on .19.

mms and bluetooth both work for me and I have no lag

I'm using lp+, so I can't speak about the launcher. I love the lp widgets and can't seem to live without them, not to mention the scrolling bottom dock that I can set up 30 different things.

anyway, MIUI has just been the best all around rom for me and I've tried pretty much all of them.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rayporsche:
All that sounds great, I guess I'll be flashing in a little while ! thank you...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 20twins10:
gotcha.. that would be why im having the issue then.. any idea if the new clockworks fix that? i know people are having issues with them for various other reasons..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] khanam:
i dont think the new one solves that (have not flashed 3.0.0.8 yet but it wasnt working till 3007 so i would doubt it) yet. Somebody needs to get this issue highlighted to koush too.
