Just fyi: I set my wifi sleep policy to never, now my wifi is the nr1 cause of battery drain. 25% after 14 hours of on time.

Dont get me wrong I am not complaining I don't need more then 24 hours of juice.

But it is the second time I noticed myself that setting, the sleep policy to never just isn't a solution for everybody!

I think people with battery issues shouldn't just set it to never, but do some trail and error.

I have the original newest MIUI rom, did the english language pack (nexus s) and the sms and music app broke.. is there a way to make them working? huh? the SMS is kinda.. important to me heh, something like posting the good apk's and a guide on how to replace them?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vigge_sWe:

Delete the bad /efs then run the script again.

I have a problem with Beta7 repack. Almost all games that i backed up force close on opening. I tried to backup using titanium with data and without data, but it doesn't make a difference. Also remounting internal sd didn't help. I don't have external SD so that isn't the problem either. Anyone knows a fix ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Segnaro:
Yes. Back it up just in case.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] skiddhard:
I have a backup taken long back. Would having that help?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Segnaro:
Yes. 10char
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] skiddhard:
Cool. Let me try manually replacing the efs folder with the backup.

Also, while I was waiting for a reply, i deleted the /efs folder and ran the script again. Didn't work. Let me try this method now.

Nope. None of the steps have worked so far. Guess not much of a choice but to either downgrade to v7 or go back to the tried and tested Doc Kitchen. :(

I haven't got the IMEI fixed, but I did get past having no network by removing SIM PIN via settings, then delete the EFS folder and then reboot. I had to then goto Mobile Network Settings and then Network Opearators and manually selecting Network, then I switched to Select Automatically, and touch wood since then it's working...

Maybe IMEI is a bug which prevents the correct one from being seen or read incorrectly? Anyone care to check this out?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
All of you guys are expecting this to be working out of the box.. it's a Beta ROM for a reason and there will be issues, albeit major ones.

Beta 8 does seem very buggy though, i am still on Beta 7, so i will remove it in a few hours.

Also, just spoke to my gf on the phone for 2 hours and phone didn't reboot etc. Looks good.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] skiddhard:
No sir. For a beta release (and i speak for myself here) I understand that everything is not hunky dory all the time. Bugs are expected and the attempt was to merely fix the one I came across. The fact that I do not posses enough coding skills make me depend on guys like you who really are the brains behind this beauty here. One mans problem could be another mans fix eh?? ;)

No offense was intended and I am hoping, none was taken. :)

ok strange

coming from CM7, wanting to retry v4.3 and followed rahul's guideline

factory reset -> odin -> repartition 512 pit -> i9000 froyo full pda -> ok

upon reboot it couldn't mount some /device and landed in 3E console.

rebooted and now i get some vibrations like something is FC-ing over and over.

any ideas?

Edit: reflashing froyo full via odin again, maybe it helps....

Edit2: same thing happens....

install default apk files, please wait

cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (invalid argument)

copy_data_default_apk: Cant mount DBDATA

your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.

Edit3: nevermind, wiped everything that could be wiped from console, factory reset form console and it booted up froyo....

PHEW!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Candanga:
Same thing happens over here with my *111 voice mail#. Sent the report already...

I also have an invalid IMEI, I'm not sure if I can try to restore it using my nv_data.bin backup and reset ownership credentials, don't know if it's compatible with this ROM. Oh, something else, 3G switches randomly to EDGE, is it possible to force it to stay in 3G?

Thanks! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mll7:
And remove adfree reboot. Install adfree again if you are having troubles after an ROM upgrade.

the "new guide" needs to specify that the initial kernel from cm7 doesn't do the efs backup and you get a fake imei on MIUI

doing a efs-backup.zip before initial kernel saves the day
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Candanga:
Yes indeed, that's why I wrote this little guide a while ago.

[HOW TO] /efs Folder backup + Restore NV_DATA.BIN

Was 4.3 supposed to fix mms issue? I flashed it yesterday, but the problem is still there.

Once I want to start a new conversation with someone I havnt had one before, it force closes
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lttldvl:
Have you tried going back to stock and reflashing? If not I'd suggest going back to 2.2 using the ezbase rom and flashing to miui through the correct flashing procedure.

I've not had the loss of ability to send texts at all using that method.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
MMS issue will not be fixed until MIUI Devs implement it themselves.

In other words, MMS FC issue is not fixed in 4.3 - it will be this week on Friday (hopefully).

* dialer bug is part of mms issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lttldvl:
From what I've read on the miuiandroid.com forums, they believe the version available there is more stable than the one here as the xda one is deemed to be more experimental. I honestly cannot validate this in any way, shape or form as I have not tried the miuiandroid.com rom.

Besides, the devs here are too good to not support them :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] montrealguy:
I'm getting random reboots during phone calls! I'm on v4.3 with Neo 04 kernel.

Anyone have a solution yet???
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Szighy:
its a known bug for that kernel...many people reported reboots while calling...anyways I didn't have any reboot till now, and I was talking a lot...incoming and outgoing as well
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAMBO04:
I'd challenge that opinion actually.

The one here is more stable and refined in our eyes, as it has a tailor made kernel and tweaks, yes we experiment more with the ROM but we want to push it past the boundaries.

the miuiandroid.com ROM is only a deodexed/translated version, no tweaks, custom kernel, implementations, experimentations and so forth.

We make the whole ROM as fluid as possible, from small things like theme names still in chinese to major things.

Yes we use miuiandroids as a base, but IMO we make it better.

Does anyone know how to change the baseband in MIUI or CM7? None of the codes are working!

I'm using JL2 but it keeps switching to 900 when I want it to stay on 850.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Arekey:
Good, good! Flashed v4.3 about 24 hours ago, and wiped battery stats. The battery was at about 93% after flashing, and I went to bed without charging the phone. Now, 24 hours later, the battery is still at 15% with moderate use (some phone call, lots of SMS, some surfing and some hours of music). The best battery result I've got with MIUI! Will fully charge the phone this night and then do a real recalibration of the battery tomorrow.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Candanga:
Sure m8, use the 9000T modem I repacked(CM7 Version), post your results.

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] montrealguy:
Did you read my question? I want to force my band to stay on 850 instead of auto-switching to whatever it feels like. In order to do that, I need access to the band menu--but none of the access codes are working on CM7.

There isn't even a way to check which band you're on in CM7!

The 9000T probably supports a variety of bands, but can you select which bands you want?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pliquid:
i have that too, but i manage to solved it last night :p

get the correct sms center number for your carrier. flash to stock rom, change the sms center number in the message setting under stock rom. then flash back MIUI. there you go. it solved my issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pliquid:
WOW. it finally works

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Candanga:
Yes I DID read your question, you are asking how to change the BASEBAND. Up to where I know BASEBAND (check your Phone's ABOUT), is the MODEM/RADIO VERSION, reason why I sent you the link to update your Modem (BASEBAND) with a compatible version of a stable 850MHz I repacked.

If you are having issues with 3G/2G/EDGE, that's another story; as we all know the usual *#BAND# commands

wont

work under CM7 as they are Samsung-OS oriented. I am too having your issue and I'm trying to figure it out how to force WCDMA(3G/HSUPA/ w/e you wanna call it), not a BAND ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] quaff:
What I'd like to know is how does he even know his device is switching between 900 and 850 MHz, let alone which MHz his modem is running on. AFAIK, there isn't any way to tell which band is currently in use under CM7/MIUI.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Candanga:
Yes you can, Punch *#*#4636#*#*, go to Phone information go down to the Pull-down menu and browse the options... Google is our friend.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lttldvl:
I'd like to report a minor issue with the music player (more of a part time annoyance than "I want this fixed yesterday" or "this rom sucks because of this bug" lol), but I copied about 12 albums across to my external SD card via USB (the music player recognised them all once the transfer was complete) but for some reason now it only sees 2 albums. I've looked through the memory card in file explorer and they are still there, but as I said before, the music player (and first view in the file explorer) only recognises 2 of the albums. They're all the same format as well, so I know that isn't an issue.

Again, it's just something for you guys to have a look at (both the devs here and the official ones if they are reading this) when they get the chance to.

I'd like to say thanks again for all the hard work you've put in to this rom!

how do i fix these?

i'm using MCG v4.2. don't want to switch to v4.3 due to the messaging bug. in fact, v4.2 sometimes causes a FC when i receive a message too.

That solution worked, thanks for that!

As for what I was saying about miuiandriod.com saying the xda rom is more experimental than theirs... I was just passing on something I read over there. I have been sticking to the xda version because I noticed from changelogs that they were basically shadowing the xda version. And besides, let's face it... the devs here on xda are simply awesome guys (and gals if there are any) and they have my respect for what they do here. If I knew how they do what they do I'd contribute as much as I can to repay all that they have done.
