Im playing flac via bluetooth headset for an hour now switching' pausing and resuming and the only problem I have is a tiny lag once in a while during a song.

my headset doesnt have buttons on it though.

in previous versions it was force closing a lot but in 1.5.20 it seems ok

about the camera, same deal, previous versions got stuck and force closed and even rebooted the phone a couple of times.

now it seems to work better.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
I dont have the issue. My mobile connection is reliable as well as miui has not bale on me on that area yet.

Screen off music player control via Vol+/- keys?

Any info about this feature? Will it be coming to MIUI?

I deserted briefly from MIUI to Oxygen to test something and I just realized how convenient this feature is :)
[Desire Android Development] tbaxter08700:
Could someone help me out on which zip file to download as there is 3 to choose from and I would really like to try this ROM out.

Much appreciated
[Desire Android Development] Grudgie:
When i view my Gmail on my phone and read a mail its all in chinese..
[Desire Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
Nice quote!:eek:

What exactly do you want to know?

If you want a Froyo Miui rom, you can download any of the three

FULL

roms. First read this and this to discover what a2sd, d2w, d2ext xpart means.

If you want a Gingerbread rom, download a full rom from the first post of this thread, and follow the instructions.

Good luck!
[Desire Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
If you want it to be english press menu=>settings=>system=>language and choose english.

If you want another language, download the multilang zipfile and flash it in recovery.

After that: menu=>settings......etc.
[Desire Android Development] Grudgie:
Yeah i already had it at begin in Dutch language. Everything is dutch.. when i open gmail the title of the mail is dutch but when i press on the mail everythign is chinese.. so weird
[Desire Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
Did you apply a theme wich also changes the used font? If so, change the used font back to default.

[DUTCH]Ziet de nu-app er ook anders uit bijvoorbeeld?[/DUTCH]
[Desire Android Development] Grudgie:
[DUTCH] Als ik de font aanpas dan blijft het chinees[/DUTCH]
[Desire Android Development] tbaxter08700:
Thanks for the reply.

Well I guess I want the most stable ROM. What would you recomend?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Mine shows dutch on all text. I just switch language.

Sorry for the image size. Uploaded via mobile
[Desire Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
Ok, so changing the font doesn't help, text stays in chinese.

Did this happen after a theme change? Then, don't use this theme. There are lots of usable themes out there.

Otherwise i'm clueless....:confused:

Or did you get lots of chinese friends all of a sudden?:p
[Desire Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
I use 1.5.20 d2ext xpart and i'm very happy with it.

I partitioned my sd like this: 1gb is an ext partition with 255 mb swap, rest is fat32.

Good luck and enjoy this amazing rom!
[Desire Android Development] tbaxter08700:
Thanks I will try that then. Do you get apps to SD with this one?
[Desire Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
More or less. Did you read the links i posted on a2sd, d2w and d2ext?

With d2ext, the ext partition on your sd card will be seen as internal storage.

It's like this, in my situation:

And just for fun a benchmarkscore:
[Desire Android Development] H0ngi:
D2W Version works great :)

thank you XJ for that great work
[Desire Android Development] wahur1:
im not a miui user but can anyone confirm please ? that does this miui rom has facebook integration with contacts like "htc sense" ? before switching i want to be sure about it.

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
Affirmative!

The facebook app does this, isn't it?
[Desire Android Development] tbaxter08700:
Do we have any other download links for datatoex as they keep failing.
[Desire Android Development] wahur1:
hmm no idea about the facebook app...i use sense integration so im in love with that feature....its easy to catcup with friends through that.
[Desire Android Development] rutgerhoorn:
Yeah, it's a nice feature.

Anyway, all my facebook contacts are shown in my contactlist, merged with my existing contacts.
[Desire Android Development] AlexShu:
no its not integrated into MIUI like in sense

but you can sync your contacts

_____

btw, when I try to edit a facebook contact in contacts it force closes (android.process.acore) .. its logical you cant edit that but I dont think it should force close :P
[Desire Android Development] ayk33:
Yes you can flash update3, nothing happens
[Desire Android Development] Raffie75:
@gu5taf Just a question...

Do you sometimes have total freezes? This afternoon my device totaly froze down.

Had to pull the batt... after that it worked fine again.

Have you installed setCPU if so what speed?

Just curious cause of the freezes and curious of we have the same settings.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
yes you can use other language pack in this ROM, any rom type in the OP. make sure it is same version 1.2.25

just check if the language pack will install other things as well.
[Desire Android Development] jamesc123:
I cant post images yet cos im a new user. But for example the :-P symbol in the sms app of the rom shows the 3rd icon on the 4th row of the sma smileys. With two hearts for eyes. I don't think that's a suitable image for :-P
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
It is just an add-on and it is always changed over at miui-dev, grab it there and flash via recovery

If i put it i will always have to change it every week
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
\

You can flash 1.2.25 update3 it will update Gmail
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Can you check Vubrate in Sound Settings for phone call,

If you change the option it will go away

The music translation i am looking into it for they just grab the old string name to point to that. (they i mean the devs)
[Desire Android Development] jamesc123:
Try turning up the ringer volume using the physical volume keys on the side of the phone
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
yeah i saw what you mean, i don't use smiley's that's why i did not bother on that. will see what can be done, seems like images are hardcoded to chinese chosen symbols
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
This has been addressed, they are new miui music player features, it took me a while to trace it, LOL. Maybe Update 4, i hope you don't want it that bad, it's not uploaded. just waiting for maybe some more...
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
that should not happen on update, we just flash 7 files i think.

Anything changed to your set-up lately?
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
i don't have setcpu though and never had froze issue, even in 1.2.4 versions in our stefan thread, users have this froze and reboot
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
And this one also looks better now:

For update 4 posting, it's only the 27th though, might find some more :)

Weather Information Not Available

Hey im using your MIUI XJ D2W.

I tried updating the weather, but it said that weather information is not available. Any ideas why this is happening?
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
You have to set location first.

Tap lower right on the weather widget.

Go to bottom,

Set weather location

Data connection should be available. I know you know that already
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
i tried it, now i know what you mean,

But the other person receiving your text message is receiving a ":-P", only in our device that it looks odd because the chinese have different image and smileys interpretation, i will just arrange the text but it will not still show correct on our device.

But definitely the one receiving it show the correct image. am not sure of Desire to Desire though. wanna text me? LOL
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
Is a german pack avaiable?
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
The german pack @ miui-dev will work if you want the MIUI XJ or MIUI XJ X-PART,

same common installation.

Flash MIUI XJ rom

Flash their german language pack.

:)
[Desire Android Development] kartoffel1212:
Sorry for my question but this here is a XJ Rom [ROM] 1.2.25 [MIUI EN][XJ][27 Feb] ?

And where i get a german language pack ?
[Desire Android Development] memphisuklf:
Nothing at all changed. Have done a full wipe and installed the rom again. I am on stock kernel.

It only happens on various sips but never had this problem in 1.2.4 or previous release.
[Desire Android Development] hooverdk:
It is! You have to edit contact press menu and join contact.
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Bluetooth and power consumption

Another turning moment with BT stereo headset and MIUI music:

Turns out that above stuff I've described were working perfectly while the phone was on charger (USB or wall plug). Once taken off the charger it simply freezes, and the phone becomes non-responsive to any input. It functions like that each and every time.

Looks like the BT is consuming too much of phone voltage, so the processor cannot process nothing else when not on charger.

@ XJ, xavierjohn, can you provide my input to chinese developers? Do you need some additional logs, catlog or so? Feel free to contact me, hope I can help MIUI get better.
[Desire Android Development] +BroNNoS+:
Also after a reboot? Fixed it for me when I had it after changing a theme.
[Desire Android Development] PioneerZgZ:
But if you change the room you have to merge the contacts again. Honestly its something I miss in miui.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Theres mirror in fanboys
[Desire Android Development] AlexShu:
the sense integtation sync birthdays, events, status updates and photos.

in miui all I get is a view profile button and it opens the facebook app
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Just tried it, works for me, VOL + - with screen locked.
[Desire Android Development] gafi:
XJ, a great rom indeed. Using XJ MIUI for a while now. Currently on 1.5.20 X-PART. On battery for 26 hours now, with only 2G, some WIFI, some gaming, calls, SMS (usual use) and 42% left! No battery or CPU software whatsoever. Great work!
[Desire Android Development] payaxy:
You mean it skips to the next/prev music track after longpressing Vol +/-? Never worked for me with MIUI. Is there some setting to get this working?
[Desire Android Development] tbaxter08700:
Thanks
[Desire Android Development] syncopy:
+1 to this problem. I've had this problem for a long time - with LeeDrOid and MIUI too. Happens occasionally though, but when it happens, it is quite irritating.

P.S With 1.5.20, I haven't had any such problems.
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
No, I ment to get volume up or down in lockscreen (shortpress).
[Desire Android Development] payaxy:
What I meant was a feature to skip to next/prev track by long pressing Vol +/- buttons. This is incredibly handy feature, skip to next track without even taking your handset out of the pocket. CM or Oxygen ROM support this and I really wish that MIUI would add this feature.

MIUI music player supports feature to shake the handset to skip to next track, but I found that the feature is not very usable in real life. Works very well when you try it sitting in a chair, but skips tracks all the time when you don't want it to if you're walking around. I dare you to run trying to catch a tram with this feature enabled. You have never skipped tracks so fast in your life :D You can adjust sensitivity, but it didn't solve my issue, either it was skipping tracks while walking normally, or sensitivity was set so low that it was impossible to skip tracks altogether... Vol +- buttons work very well while phone is in your pocket, it's absolutely awesome feature if your headphones don't have working player controls.
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Now I got it, sorry for misunderstanding. Yes, this feature would be nice.
[Desire Android Development] tbaxter08700:
Yeh I read all that mate, thanks, I understand all that now. Just one more question, once I have installed that ROM is there anything elce I have to download. Sorry for all the questions its just with this ROM there seems to be so much you can download compared je other roms.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
If you join contact already then sync to google mail after that so it will be in gmail. AllMy contacts in gmail are now with right pictures and all details, numbers, etc.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
If the phone is in my pocket it means i am using a headset to listen to music.

In real life i dont reach to pocket or play like majong to find the volume down or up when sitting in a chair.

I use the next and previous button in the headset. Lol. And i know your talking about without player controls headset.

Sorry thats what came into my mind right away. Ill feedback to cn though.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
This one too, ill post in cn.

@ XJ22

After installing this ROM last night, on my 1st two attempts i couldnt get the A2SD set up proper, but after rechecking the opening page, followed the instructions and got the A2SD set up proper. Restored all my apps & data with MyBackUp and thus far no FC. I am very impressed with the amount of thought and effort that went into this ROM, my favorite thing about this ROM is the built in customization, which for me is on a next level. The ability to customize the entire look and feel from your homescreen to the lockscreen with wallpaper & hands down the best messaging app on any Android build… Nuff Said

The only thing that I would hope to see added in the future is the MIUI 3D weather clock with support for my region, Cape Town, South Africa.

Props to you XJ
[Desire Android Development] tbaxter08700:
Hi pal. I'm going to try this ROM later to only I'm going to use the data2ex. What's the season woke have gone with a2SD?
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Thanks.

You can leave feedback to miui 3d clock developer to include your town.

They update regularly. In fact it was updated some hrs ago
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Nothing wrong

A2sd is not enabled by default.

Chinese rom set to internal initially.

Just left for users to decide whether to activate it and use sdext.

Xpart is a good choice too.
[Desire Android Development] tbaxter08700:
So what will I have to do to get my apps on SD if I go with data2ex ROM?

Thanks

Suggested feature: Messaging app to strip accent symbols

@xavierjohn22 Since you seem to be sending some feedback to Chinese devs, here is another minor problem with MIUI messaging app.

Even though it's one of the nicest apps for messages I've seen, I'm unable to use it on regular basis because of the problem with diacritic accent marks that used in my mother tongue - Czech, such as ě, š, č, ř, ž, ý, á, í etc. Most keyboards dictionaries suggest words with these diacritic symbols. Same problem exist in number of other languages, such as French or Spanish. Also in languages using non-latin alphabets, like Russian, Arabic or Chinese.

When SMS contains such characters, its encoding automatically changed from default GSM 7-bit alphabeth to UTF-16. Practical implication is that number of available characters per SMS is reduced to only 67 characters for 16-bit encoding. If no accented letters are used, SMS length remains 160 characters.

My suggested solution would be optional feature in SMS application that would analyze text of SMS message before sending and replaces any accented letters with non-accented counterpart; á would become a, etc. Since this might be difficult to implement for many different languages, maybe just this feature could enable user to specify which characters replace with what, like two comma separated lists, one letters with accents, the other one "cleaned up" versions of same letters.

Right now I'm forced to install Handcent SMS every time to solve this issue for me. I don't especially love Handcent and I'd love to ditch it but I can't because my SMS throughput would almost double without it.

[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
As XJ said on Home screen is all...you can slide to the left-right. There are folders into which you can put apps of your choice. You can also create folders and name them as you want. It is different then the Sense ROMs. Manuals:

[Desire Android Development] Hypercaine:
Thanks, that worked ;)
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
Im not sure if i fully understand you, but you can create folders to categorize your apps, you have folder options to list the apps by default, date and most used.

You can make these changes by clicking in the top left hand corner of an opened folder.

Edit

If you are not using folders you can move your apps to any homescreen by long pressing and moving it to your desired location.

Edit2 if this doesn't work terminate your contract and get a Nokia.

Lol pun intended am pissed

You can flash it on your ext3 with 512MB. 1GB isn't necessary.

No, you don't need a 1GB partition, a 512MB partition is fine! It's just smaller.:D

Thanks a lot..will join the club tonight! :D
[Desire Android Development] westlife:
I admit... nice looking ROM, but I left this one.

Because there are too many lag at usual basic stuff.

The first two issues are stuff I use very often.

1. Like GPS is freezing whole the time while I'm driving.

2. Music will lag and skips sounds. (doesn't matter which app)

3. Next reason I left is that the contact merging isn't complete and totally customizable.

These all are compared to normal running roms. I'm sorry.

Maybe I will turn back when the first two basic issues are fixed.

But thanks for the ROM. Good luck.

I don't use GPS much, but music works fine for me. I use MIUI default music player atleast 3/4 hours per day. No Lag at all. (not sure but I'm using setcpu, that might be helping me with music player and other tasks)

contact merging in MIUI is pretty much non-existant, the way a default HTC Sense ROM merges contacts from Twitter, email, phone, Whatsapp, Foursquare, Facebook and Hyves is simply awesome.

This is THE major drawback for me from using a MIUI ROM, and the bad thing is: you have to merge all these contacts manually each week :(
