How can we know is Ap2sd is working as intended? I only have 30mb os space now and every app I install takes full space from the phone, this didnt happen on my former ROM.

When I go to options the Ap2sd partition seems to always be with same space.... strange

[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
push the system update apk if it's not there

also note that if you have flashed any lang pack that deletes the system update.apk that is not my rom apk anymore.
[Desire Android Development] Kalashnikitty:
But we need the updater.apk otherwise theme manager is crashing.

see here http://www.miuiandroid.com/2011/06/theme-manager-fc-fix-thanks-lithid/

Yo XJ

I just read THIS POST and if what i saw is true :D I hope you are going to included these AWESOME functions into the next release ...

Would we be getting this anytime soon because 1.6.17, with those new features is a MUST HAVE.

After checking that out I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas morning.

hey people, flashed this A2SD+ and my desire's been stuck on the white htc logo screen for around 30 minutes now, this can't be normal, right? what should i do? this is my first MIUI.

[Desire Android Development] Kev79:
Hi, after some help. I'm currently running 1.6.10, however the market doesn't appear to be showing all apps. If I search using the browser version of the market on the PC I find the apps fine, however searching within the Market program only appears to fine some apps.

I did some reason and there seemed to be something about editing the build.prop file so that the fingerprint and descriptions matched my previous build (leedriod) which worked fine, however it still makes no difference. One example is Google Maps, as its already installed it shows under my apps in the Market however if I click details it just throws up an error page.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hey guys,

Is there any way to get rid of the background behind the non-miui icons ? I think it's very ugly...
[Desire Android Development] rmg2:
XJ i was wondering if it is possible, i dont know for the future maybe, to integrate a script or something for auto shutdown/turn on the phone?

My Blackberry(previous 2 phones) had this feature where you could set the phone to automatically shut off (1 AM) and turn on (6 AM).

For me this was very helpful to either save battery if you weren't plugged in or simply avoid the 24 HR on mode.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
You can use other weather app

Thats just a free one

Sent from XJ's Desire... LOL
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Blackberry and some w7 phones have small backup battery inside which serves as power to read that capability. I come across it when i was using winmo.

I dont know if our phones has it. Else we have already devs that has done that.

[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Do you have a stock hboot or some other else?

[Desire Android Development] rmg2:
I see. One more thing: what partitions do you use? I have now FAT32+EXT4? Do i need one Swap too?
[Desire Android Development] skedone:
if using x-part no mate, that all i have on mine
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Anyone? Tnx.
[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
I know it's not exactly what you want, but you can use an app like Tasker to set up profiles that will put the phone in airplane mode at a specific time and put it back into normal mode at another time. That way you can have the phone consume as little power as possible at night, and not be interrupted by incoming calls/texts/emails etc, without actually being off.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
browse it with gparted, i have a tutorial on 6th post i think
[Desire Android Development] rmg2:
Indeed is not that i want but i'll try Tasker to see. Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] sr1ks:
I Believe you could use tasker to do the same(not exactly turn it off but close)..

I have a task which put my phone into AirPlane Mode at 11 and back to calls at 6 in the morning. you can also schedule the phone to turn on periodically to sync stuff.

Sorry did notice some else had suggested the same already
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
there's no recommendation whatsoever, thats why it is x-part, it works on multiple partition.

as i have said before in theory if you have like 4 partitions or three it will consume more power than the 2 partition, but its not that a huge difference. reason is phone is working more on reading the 4 partitions.
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
XJ, its already created, and I know how to partition sdcard. How to enable swap / check if it is "on" or "off"? Or it is enabled by default?
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
If you got three partition that swap is already ext4, it's already ON

if you got four, the fourth is off by default
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
So, I got 3 (see my sig). FAT32+ext4+SWAP. SWAP is created as swap type, not ext4 partition. In order to have swap functionality, does it needs to be ext4 or swap type of partition (I mean FAT32+ext4(1Gb)+swap(300Mb) or FAT32+ext4(1Gb)+ext4(300Mb)).

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] rmg2:
Yes i have x-part. Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] rmg2:
That's make sense now, i'll keep my fat32+ext4 partitions and really i dont see another reason to use more than 2.

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] kev94:
Anyone knows ?
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Me me me, i know..

create an icon and place it in \default\icons of an mtz file

open the default.mtz file that comes with the rom located in the \system\media\theme

the default icon border and background is there.

icon_border.png

icon_background.png

easiest way is to find a theme with transparent border and background

Just installed 1.6.10 a2sd version over cm7 hboot. And i like it.

Still need couple of advices.

I was not able to activate darktremor apps2sd. Any advice?

It seems that data folder is missing in rom's zip (if compared to gingervillain).

(Sorry for asking help and not providing logs from terminal)

So i put a2sd script from oxygen rom, seems to work fine. Can i go with this?

Also, there seems to exist incoming call delay bug?

Is there speed dial in phone app?

Thanks for answers.

XJ, thanks for nice rom!!
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Post number 3 should b the guide for a2sd activation

Oxygens a2sd will work too. Their all a2sd. Only diff in some parts

Miui cn said delay bug fix on friday. See changelog over those sites that post them every now and then.

None that i know of.

Usually speed dials apply to those phone with hardkey number button. So the term speed dial really make sense. Press one button long then it calls

With a touchscreen and a pop up dial pad i think it may be called: show dial pad then speed dial. Sounds weird. Lol.

Good night for me. Cheers.

You can adjust Alarm volume, Media Volume, Alerts Volume, Ringer Volume, System Volume an Voice call Volume.

You can set profiles as you like.

Hope this is what you mean.

[Desire Android Development] Staggers:
To change fonts you have a few options:

1) Use Font Changer

OR

2) Put the font in a Miui theme:- rename the font files to Arial.ttf, Arial-Bold.ttf, Arial-Italic.ttf, put them in a folder named fonts, then drop the folder into the theme's zip and change the theme in the theme manager.

OR

3) Look at THIS thread to see if the font you want isn't already in a theme file.

Also, the home button is not working.

And when I hold down the power button, I only have two options - Power Off and Reboot.
