[Epic 4G General] gTen:
They are definitely playing favorites..it has nothing to do with HTC or Samsung, they are not paying the bill..Sprint just has more interest in advertising the "EVO" brand similar to how Verizon does the "Droid" brand...cause in the future if they release a phone with "Evo" in it, thats instant advertisement...the Epic has no value for sprint to advertise brand wise..sure they can release an Epic 2.but there won't be an Epic series of phones...

I mean I haven't even seen sprint advertise 1 ad online with the Epic in it..only 3rd parties like Radioshack and wirefly advertised it on the net..
[Epic 4G General] ungovernable1977:
PSN has those 'Epic ___' videos... not sure why.... and Ive seen it frequently on the 'pumptop' TVs at 76 stations...thats it. Sprint is in bed with HTC... im sure HTC paid for it. Maybe some ex-microsoft employees working at HTC??? If you cant win, outspend em... worked for Ronald Raygun...
[Epic 4G General] Grogck:
Agreed. The 'Evo' is an exclusive they can market for differentiation. Sure the Epic is the most unique of its Galaxy S cousins. But because its series is ubiquitous across all the carriers none of them are going to market any of their variants aggressively. I never saw a lot of marketing support for the Vibrant/Captivate/Fascinate either. They all sold well though.

I don't know why people seem to take it personally. It's just a phone. Even though the Epic has been stuck on 2.1 for a lot longer I still think it's offered me a better experience than I would've gotten from the also-excellent Evo. Even on 2.2 the Evo didn't feel as responsive as the Epic did on 2.1 And the screen size can't make up for the quality IMO (it felt like trying to compare a cheaper 55" LCD to a high end 46" Plasma.) I've been happily running locked stock for the first time in my smartphone-owning life after years of custom ROM flashing on other devices. The only feature I've personally started to want is the ability to put apps on my storage card - and now I'll have that too.
[Epic 4G General] CapsLockKey:
Like the last post said, Galaxy S is a common line across carriers. I've actually seen more ads for the Epic than the other Galaxy S phones other than maybe the Mesmorize, but the Galaxy S is the only good phone US Cellular even has.
[HD Mini Themes and Apps] k_nachoo:
Hi All,

It'e been 3 months since release of CHT 2.0 ..

I have a hTC HD Mini. and I use CHT with HVGA Port.

I found some very minor bugs while using it. I am not sure if it is due to the porting or not.

One of the bug: If I turn off the phone screen when I am on Music Tab and then turn it on again ... when I unlock the screen I find the "Library" and "Menu" option at the bottom disappeared .. instead .. there is "Phone" and "Menu" option as if I am on my Home tab. Does anyone else face the same problem ?

I hope these bugs will be resolved in the next version ... and I want to ask when should we expect the CHT V2.1 ?

Thanks.
[HD Mini Themes and Apps] tzacapaca:
dude CHT 2.0 thread is HERE

so ask THERE!!!!
[HD Mini Themes and Apps] BHS Interceptor:
Hola, I would not expect any update or new releases of CHT in the near future ,-) Maybe we should ask and help Tummy to finish the HVGA Port of CHT instead of asking for further releases of CHT :p

Regarding your issue when turning your screen off.... I just checked it and don´t have your problem. I use CHT Lockscreen, so when I push the upper button (for screen off, lock, long press device off, etc...), my screen turns off, but doesn´t lock my device.... which is what I want :D Pushing it again, it turns screen back on where and how it was before...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
PLEASE SEE HERE FOR UPDATES!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xl DIGITAL lx:
Nice job, I'm going to try this.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] da900:
Great work... Gonna try this soon... Biuld-in screenshots didn't work in Q'N'D MIUI too, but then the dev fixed this. What about asking the dev?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Thanks. I had the key combination wrong, the screenshot function works fine. OP updated :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bloodhawk:
Downloading! :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Elegy:
does this have a2sd enabled? i downloaded the official (chinese) miui 1.2.19 but it had a2sd disabled and there was no way of getting it to work ://///

*edit*

settings->sd-card settings->A2SD+ "This device does not support A2SD+"

whatsup with that? need to install darktremor a2sd+ ourselves? I tried but it didnt work
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
My SD card isn't partitioned for A2SD, but as far as I know it should work. Check Settings > System > SD Card Settings
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bloodhawk:
For some reason my phone went into a boot loop after i appliedthe Gingersauve 1.7 theme.

Update : A Battery pull did the trick and the theme was installed properly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wez89:
Nicee, will try out soon.. Thanks (:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Elegy:
my settings look the same as yours; "this system does not support a2sd+".

How do i format my sdcard for a2sd use? format ntfs and then use rom manager to partition it? or do i need to format it with fat32 on my pc?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
You can completely partition your SD card within ROM manager. Just make sure to backup everything on your SD card before you do.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 008325:
delete :) ..problem solved
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 008325:
one more thing, the keyboard backlight is not functional
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GOVATENT:
Hey you should setup a donation link. I would like to send something your way for continuing the rom updates.Thanks!

Edit: I saw your line on donations. I still think you deserve something as well if your gonna help maintain the rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] babyfacedkayos:
the soft touch buttons are SUPER bright...

is that going to be a problem in the long run? i dont want to have them burn out...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
I noticed that too. I know the softkey brightness is directly associated to the screen brightness. I'll look into it later tonight and see if I can come up with a solution.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
I'll look into it. Thanks for pointing it out.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] aM-:
nice! btw, this MIUI base on what version of android? 2.2? 2.3?

sorry for silly question. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
It's 2.2.1
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mojtaba.alhoseine:
it would be amazing if you could get landscape mode supported...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
I second that motion, but unfortunately, the original MIUI ROMs in China don't have that feature installed. Since this is just a "port" to the G2/DZ, landscape won't be available...but it would be mind-blowing!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Thats good to see MIUI is back and running!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ryanmo5:
Loving the rom man good work, hope you will keep at it nothing like MIUI! ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Thanks for all the kind remarks!

For anyone using the ROM, a few quick questions about wifi calling:

1. US T-Mobile customers, is wifi calling working for you? (It should be)

2. Non US users, is the wifi calling application installed? (It shouldn't be)

There are a few issues I need to figure out, which will most likely be worked into the next build (next Saturday as long as the English translations are available.)

Thanks again, and please keep the feedback coming.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jobehonda:
Wifi calling works, but I am having a problem with receiving MMS on TMOUS.

For some reason the download button shows up but I cant actually download it, says failed.

Offical error is: Download of message no subject from (insert name here) was unsuccessful.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fajarep:
another miui..., cool...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Also having the same issue... any fix? When I flashed darktremors. I had a bootloop so I flashed back cyan rc1
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Elegy:
yes i fixed it, finally. In the darktremor thread for desire Z someone said (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10857798&postcount=22) you have to mount /system and /data before flashing the zip. I did this and it worked!

so reboot into recovery, choose the mounts option, then mount system and data, and then flash the darktremor zip
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Ah, must be because the zip was built for the 2.5 version of CWM. Thanks for the tip.

Uploading a new version of the ROM now. Fixed a bunch of stuff and added some goodies!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
MMS is definitely working on the 1.2.19.1 release. (tested on tmous)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jobehonda:
Whats your APN look like? Do anything different to get it to work? I can send but the download button doesnt work it just fails for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Elegy:
im confused now, i believe i have flashed the other MIUI rom out there; OsiMood. but now i read he's not interested in developing further since this one came out.

is this MIUI ROM zipaligned and optimized just like his ?

Anyway, i cannot get imported themes to work. it only changes some things like lockscreen and boot animation. Is this a MIUI issue or did this function get lost in porting over ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Oh alright I only mounted the system. Thanks for the info
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
GOOD job lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] da900:
Just flashed 1.2.19.1 and have WIFI Call installed (but i am not on Tmob). And themes seem do not work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
I Had an issue when I tried to put a command a2sd swapsize I got stuck at the htc screen. So I had to revert back to nandroid backup
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Elegy:
eh, my fault. themes DO work, just not the theme that I wanted to install (M9)

sucks because that was my favorite one.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] malloy0:
What is MIUI for Vision?

Ok...did some searching to see what I could find out about the MIUI.

Frankly I love Sense because of the widgets and being able to Sync with Outlook using HTC sync.

I found that this interface hace this stuff?

iphone style launcher

iphone style icons

iphone style settings [much better organized system settings]

iphone style contacts, and screen effects

innovative new lock screen with music player

loads more MIUI goodies that have impressed me as a user

Wondering about widgets? As deep the options as Sense?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AGunz82:
Loving this rom but noticed the music player shows lyrics whether I want or not.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
Hey guys. I really want to try out this rom, but this will be the first time I'll ever actually flash a rom, so could someone be kind enough to write down simple instructions on how to flash it? I know I'm supposed to make a backup of my current stock rom using Clockworkmod recovery (3.0.0.5), but am I'm supposed to renamed the downloaded rom to update.zip and boot into recovery and flash it like that? I don't wanna mess anything up.. And just because I don't wanna start my own thread in the Q&A forum, I followed these instuctions (http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php...Z.2FG2.2FDHD.29_-_OPTIONAL_and_UNNECESSARY.21) on rooting my phone, and didn't flash the engineering hboot. That won't affect flashing the rom right? I'm sorry I'm being paranoid, but I don't wanna mess up my phone. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
No lol all you have to do is download the rom, make a nandroid back up, go to rom manger look for install rom then look for MIUI at your download folder then flash
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
Thank you for the quick response! So I should do the following:

(0. Use Titanium Backup to back up my apps, correct?) (Also, Clockworkmod 3.0.0.5 is safe to use to flash this rom, right?)

1. Download rom.

2. Use the "Backup Current Rom" option in Rom Manager (I assume that is what making a nandroid backup is. Correct me if I'm wrong please?)

3. Go into Rom Manager and select "Install ROM from SD Card".

4. Select "miui-vision-1.2.19.1-signed.zip" from my download folder and select flash.

I'm so sorry I'm being so annoying with making a step-by-step process, but, I'm still learning, and it never hurts to be extra extra careful. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
Correct, Nandroid refers to backing up your current ROM. Also, make sure to wipe your data/cache before installing the ROM so you won't run into any problems. And yes, you can TB to back up your apps, but NOT the system data (marked in red). That defeats the purpose of wiping. For future reference, always wipe before testing a new ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
How would I go about wiping the data/cache? Is that done in recovery? And I'm currenting backing up apps + data, after it's done, can I choose to back up just the apps and it'll create a separate backup file? Or can I just leave the backed up apps + data and then select "restore missing apps with data" from the TB menu and it'll just ignore the system data?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
Wiping is done in recovery. Select "Wipe data" and "Wipe cache" at the main menu once you're in recovery.

Just run the "Backup all user apps" batch. Once you backed them up, you can restore them afterwards. There's separate batches for system data, but it's wise not to mess with that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Wiped and installed 1.2.19.1. Here's my APN:

Edit: That MMSC reads "http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc"
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
So when I select "Install Rom from SD card", it's going to take me to recovery, where I select the "wipe data/factory reset", then "wipe cache partition", then "install zip from sdcard", select miui-vision-1.2.19.1-signed.zip, and it'll flash? Then reboot into MIUI?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
It's best if you first reboot into recovery, backup your current ROM, wipe data/cache, then install the MIUI ROM, and then you can reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
I agree with Herrera91, the best way to do it is from the recovery itself.

1. Make Titanium Backup of all user apps

2. Power down phone

3. Hold the [vol-] rocker and power up the phone (this will boot you into the bootloader)

4. Use volume rockers to navigate to "Recovery" within bootloader, select it by hitting the power button.

5. You should now be in recovery. Use the volume rockers to navigate to the backup/restore section, and make a backup (use the touchpad to select, the power button to go back)

6. After you've backed up, select wipe data/factory reset from the main menu.

7. Once done, choose "install zip from sdcard" then "choose zip from sdcard". Navigate to the ROM package you downloaded and select it.

Once it's done, reboot your phone and enjoy :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
Thank you so much for the detailed instructions! I'll report back once I've flashed MIUI.

Edit:

I just flashed the rom, and I love it. Thank you so much for all the help guys!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jobehonda:
Thanks, thats what I have as well, dont know why I have an issue. Ill give it another wipe and try again...isnt my first rodeo very confusing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Elegy:
ugh.. im afraid to say, but i forgot which of the two MIUI roms i flashed..

I cannot remember wether i flashed this one or the OsiMood one. How can I find out?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
If you have the Wi-Fi calling app installed, then you flashed this one.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
Any way I can get quickoffice back on my device? I had it preinstalled on stock, and when I try to restore it using titanium backup, nothing happens and titanium backup says the restore was successful. Every other office type app on the market is garbage. Help?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
Hmm, perhaps the reason is because QuickOffice was a system app rather than just a user app on Stock. Was the text highlighted in red?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] brian.dore:
Is any one having issues restoring swype on this rom? I did a full wipe, prior to install. The keyboard shows up, and if I push the keys they work, but when I try to swype the keyboard flashes blue and... nothing. I received a popup once saying this version of swype may not be compatable with your device. It worked fine on QnD. Is there a different layout that might be effecting this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
It's currently crossed out and grey.. Ugh, every other office suite app on the market doesn't open .docx files, which quickoffice natively supported.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
Hmm, if you want to use QuickOffice that badly, you can try extracting it from the Stock ROM with the help of adb.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Novek:
anyone else getting bootloop at the HTC-screen? Flashed the latest in OP, wiped data/cache/dalvik...

The flash seems to go right, can't boot for some reason... CWM 3.0.0.5

/edit

CWM was the sinner... 2.5.x works :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
So does landscape work?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CarpeNoctem:
... you should read a bit more about MIUI, this question has been answered about 1500 times... I invite you to read this thread http://www.droidforums.net/forum/te...32-home-screen-does-not-rotate-landscape.html
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
To my understanding, it doesn't rotate with "auto-rotate" but does it switch to landscape if the keyboard is pulled out? I guess I should've been more clear on that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
It'll rotate only when you're texting, on Facebook, etc.

But when you're on the home screens, it won't rotate.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DrBarrell:
Can't see the menu in the psx emulation app 'psce'
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
I remember reading in the nexus one thread that the MIUI was built like that. And MIUI was ported right? Anyways I've been using MIUI for a while and I have to say my fav.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mebizzle:
Is anyone else having trouble downloading the Gmail update? I keep getting an error saying that it is signed incorrectly
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Also have that issue
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
I just encountered my first major bug using this rom. Youtube videos played in high quality won't play, the image gets stuck and the audio keeps going. I've confirmed that this happens in the youtube app and the mobile site. Anyone else having this issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
Can't update Gmail either.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ab0m:
After backing up CM7 with a fresh Nandroid in an empty Nandroid directory, wiping data, then wiping cache, then flashing the ROM via Clockwork Recovery directly, I click on reboot then my phone just gets stuck on the white and green HTC logo boot screen. This happened with this ROM and also the other one that was recently ported also. Such a friggen' bummer! I pull the battery a few times after this happens, then my phone won't boot or show any signs of life at all for about 3 minutes and/or when the charger cable is pulled also. Leave battery out for a while, maybe 3 minutes then plugging it back in it shows signs of life, but is exactly the same as before still with the white HTC logo. Help?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Novek:
Use cwm 2.x

3 won't work and you'll have a bootloop
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MatMew:
Finally, an answer. Hmm, I guess I'd lose my CM7 backup then? Grim. When is there gunna be a release for CWM3? That'd rooooock!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
The official CWM 3.0 recovery has been out and it works with Froyo ROMS as well. I've managed to make a backup of MIUI without any trouble at all.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Yea lol... the new cwm should work with any rom
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ab0m:
What is the latest version build number?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Big update this week! Expect my build to be updated tomorrow night -- busy with family til then. Also, CarpeNoctem and I may have some news soon, just give us some time :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
Sweet, can't wait for the update! And I have another annoying/noobie question. When you want to update a rom to its newest respective build, is clearing data and cache required? Or can one just boot into recovery and flash from sd card?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Herrera91:
It's best to wipe, but not totally necessary. In my case, I always wipe before flashing a new build of MIUI. If it's just a new update to the same build, you don't have to wipe.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mr.bobharris:
I love this rom more than I love my family.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 008325:
love this rom , more than other miui build
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bstylz911:
hows the battery life on this
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
I've noticed you asked the 'SAME' question on all Miui threads, battery life is always good. Just try it. Not hard
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blahbl4hblah:
If you did some searching you'd know.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wez89:
Another person who asked the same question in all 3 threads!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
Aw man. :( It'd be nice if you could update to 1.2.25 and call it day, so it's in line with the other two MIUI builds on this forum. And I'm not just saying that because I've pledged my loyalty to this build and this build only. :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Lol can you update MIUI?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CarpeNoctem:
I don't give up on the hope we could work together on this rom, and share some of the work. We all "love" our phone and the job done by the MIUI community and the guys here and on other forums.

Let continue the good work

Best
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
I agree, and I'd love to continue the work as well.

I definitely don't want to have 3 different versions of (essentially) the same ROM floating around. I think the 3 of us (you, g4rb4g3 and I) need to consolidate and collaborate. Since g4rb4g3 posted his build first, I didn't want to step on any toes, so I decided to back off of my build.

Anyway, I've been in communication with both parties, and I have (what I feel) are some good ideas for MIUI on Vision. We all need to get on IRC or something and come up with a plan :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
That sounds like a GREAT idea :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CarpeNoctem:
I can only agree on that, we could propose 1 minimalistic version and one fully loaded, but discussion is open :)

I am just happy if the work can continue and we can propose something always better
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Updated, see OP.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stryder5:
Do you know how we can get the wifi calling onto any miui rom?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BoscoTM:
