hey guys miui is pissing me off big time. for the last three releases the phone app keeps force closing with a "com.android.phone has force closed" error ever since like january. thats the only problem with these releases. if i turn data off, it works just fine with receiving and making calls but with data on nothing. if i make a call i can hear the call in the background like if i call voice mail i can hear the lady being like "you have no messages" but while i can hear that the force close app is in my face. if i hit force close, the service like resets itself like the bars get the X on them and it says no service then it regains it. please help i tried copying the phone apk from an older miui release but miui wont let me install it it says its installing but then its like "app was not installed".
Well with the phone apk you'll most likely have to push it with adb or with a file manager to your system apps
You can't just install a system app the way you do with a normal app. You have to use adb to push it to the system or use a root browser to put it in the system apps, but don't forget to change the permissions before you reboot and you should be golden. You might wanna try a FULL wipe and fresh install tho

I would also recommend trying MIUI Pyromod v1.0 if you like MIUI enough to be going without data
I would try a FULL wipe, I used to run MIUI on the Speedy from time to time and never had these issues.
Go into recovery select mounts and storage and then format system,format SD EXT IF IT'S PRESENT don't wipe the SD card just the EXT. Then format data and format cache, head back to the main menu of recovery and select advanced and wipe dalvik cache.(some say the dalvik part is redundant BUT I do it anyways and have never had a flawed flash with this wipe method and I'm about 2k flashes in lol)I hope this helps you in some way

My MIUI for EVO Shift is well.
The problem is from framework.jar's CdmaCallTracker.smali.

Try Pyromod MIUI I haven't heard of any force closes with the phone.apk for that rom.
I have tried it before, it was really laggy compared to the current ones. So there really isn't a way to fix this error?

That's interesting you say that because Pyromod MIUI is available for more than one device and people always say it's the best MIUI rom :beer:

I have already solved my problem!!
1. Backup SD Card
2. Partition your SD Card with Rom Manager (I used 512mb/256mb swap)
3. Install Simple2Ext (You can find it in the Android Market)
4. Open Simple2Ext and toggle on 'Download Cache'.
5. Now, reboot your Desire and you should be able to install Angry Birds/Maps/Other big apps.
It's very easy!!!
Thnx!!!!
I have the same issue. I dont want a work around. although i would take that as a last resort. I want to fix it.

Is it the new style market?
I think some people are having download problems with it, I can't pin it down to 1 version though as I've never had a problem and nobody ever posts what version of the market they are using, try a different version see if that helps.

One more thing can be issue. If you flash your roms from rom manager than all dalvik-cache is moved to /cache and it fills it to the top. Try to flash roms directly from recovery than your /cache partition will be clean and youll be able to download from market.

I have tried a few roms now and haven't come across any issues using the new market. Sometimes its a little slow but nothing more than that.
Only problem I've seen is sometimes it hangs when downloading paid apps, my solution is force close the market and try again. Other than that I love it.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
I'm using the old 2.12 version and it's terribly slow at everything, it seems the UI hangs on network access. But the latest market was fully asynchronous iirc, I would update if it wasn't ~7MiB.
this solved my problem too
Ive tried to find out in other threads but not found a solution yet...
Ive deleted 1-2 system apps and now I get this error code: " com.android.phone" force close. since this I cant connect to Internet( Wlan works but not the other one, dunno the English expression ).
Fixing permissions and reboots havent worked. The stupid thing that I dont know whats missing at all.
Looking forward for your answers.
Reflash the nightly without a wipe.
Do I lose my Apps and Data then?
you wont lose any apps or data unless you have placed them as a system app.
How do I place apps as a system app`?
You don't, that's the point! Flashing the rom again will replace the system apps you deleted and by not wiping data your user apps should be fine.

I have a question for some of you. I had been doing some research on CM9 for NC. I found a download, ( Though not on this site) along with some additional help from this website.
I installed everything to my NC and low and behold, it all works!! It looks just like my Toshiba Thrive tablet, except it's showing that its running Android 4.0 version.
Now for the drawbacks.... it has NO sound, NO Market, etc... Is there any way to install those? Or has this been the problem all along??
Thanks!
What links you got the CM9 from?
I got CM9 running with sound and market is working just fine.
I knew better than to trust another site, but ... I went to androidfamily.net. It had a "how to" to install CM9 ...
Could you give me downloads you used?
Thanks alot!!!
Check out the Samiam nightly builds in the development forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444943
You basically need to flash three files that are available from there. Latest nightly main CM9 ROM, Google Apps (Gapps) and the telephony-permissions fix.
That will give you market, working sound and best CM9 for Nook at the moment.

I see the Gapps file, and the telephony-permissions fix file, but where is the CM9 main file you mentioned? Am I overlooking it?
I tried again, using the same CM9 file, and then installed the Gapps file you mentioned along with the telephony permissions fix. Still no market. Everything else worked fine!

Are you connected to wifi? When loading a new rom, sometimes the market doesn't show up until hooked up to wife.
If this doesn't solve your problem, then I would start from scratch. Can you boot into CM recovery? If so, go into mounts and storage and format data, system and cache. Back into main screen and factory reset and wipe cache partition. (so many debates on if this is all totally necessary, but I have had glitches with installs when I have not done every one of these steps in this order).
Install CM9 (I do recommend samiam's build. It works flawlessly on my nook.)
Choose reboot option in recovery. Connect to a wireless network.
Samiam has included Rom Manager in his build. I use this to boot into recovery. Install Sam's gapps, telephony fix and boot animation fix. Reboot.
Hope this helps. Post if you need more detailed instructions.
I don't think you are flashing the right ones or are missing one of the 3. There is a patch that fixes market, boot animation and SOD issues. In unofficial cm9 forum.

I am getting a little confused. When I clicked on the CM9 build....it shows parent directory and then all the nightlies. Which one do I use? I also tried to just wipe it and reinstall CM7... I did manage to get the market running the CM7. So, I think I must have just downloaded the wrong nightly??

From Recovery you want to format cache and system (under mounts). Also format data unless you already have a good working set up and you want to preserve all your settings, apps etc.
Then you should be flashing 3 zips in this order
update-encore-2012xxxx.zip where xxxx is the latest
gapps-ics-4.0.3-sam-noinit.zip from the misc folder
telephony-permission-fix.zip from the misc folder
The gapps zip in particular has the google apps including the market. Note that if you are comparing with the CM7 MiRaGe ROM then that has the gapps in including the market already in whereas with CM9 you have to flash them in separately.
If you have formatted data then when you reboot it should take you straight into a setup where you set up wifi, then sign in to your google account. The market app then should work OK.

Went to CWM and did the above ..went to mounts and storage..format cache and system, and data. After I did this, I hit the power button, once to go back to the screen to install the zips. Now, when I hit that power button, the following message came up 4 times... E: can't mount/cache/recovery.log. Could this have something to do with it??
I tried your instructions again, and No Market. You said that it would take me to a screen to set up wi fi ..but it doesn't. My screen is black, with a clock, a picture of a camera, and box that says gallery.
I am just going to have to go back to CM7!
I think I finally thought it out. For whatever reason when I put the gapp file in my NC it shows installing..but I don't think it worked. CM7...No problems! Have installed twice today and both times had the Market.
CM9... runs great...but no market!
Strange. The only thing that I can think of at the moment is that you have a bad download of the gapps file.
If you haven't tried it before then I'd suggest downloading it again. You should then just be able to flash that one on its own.
---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ----------
As a double check the zip should be 16,874,937 and you should be able to open it on PC and see the apps files in the system/app folder with vending.apk

I checked, and BTW I'm using gapps-ics-4.0.3 -sam noinit ......my download is 18,275 KB ? and when I clicked on it to check the apps files as you suggested this is what it showed... 3 folder icons with MACOSX, META-INF, system. And then directly underneath the folders were 3 other things with the same words as the top 3 ... NO vending.apk ?? I clicked on the one that had system, and all the apps are there. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Would you tell me which gapp file your using?
Thanks for helping me!!!
I go the Gapps I use from the link
http://sphsolutions.net/android/Encore/Nightlies/Misc/
However, it looks like I got a slightly earlier one (probably 1 day before). I retrieved the current one to compare them. The later one has the YouTube app in which explains the difference in size. All the Google apps are exactly the same as in the one I use and the Vending app is there as well under system/app
If you can't see that folder then there is something wrong with your zip download.
The other difference from the earlier one I had is that it looks like the later one had been put together on a Mac system as it has the extra __MACOSX folder and a few .DS_Store folders which are not really part of the required zip but should be harmless.
Just to check I just tried installing with the latest nightly 20120128 and the later gapps version and I got the market OK.
So two thoughts: either your download is still bad or maybe you have signature verification turned on in your clockwork and that is causing this gapps install to fail whereas the main ROM is passing and also the gapps when you do CM7. I have signature verification disabled (which I think is the default). Try toggling the signature verification menu item and get it set to disabled.
What and where is the signature verification? And..... how do I get there?
Well anytime I use stock rom the wifi wont connect. And when I was unrooted it still wourent connect. Im using royal glacier n I like it but wifi cant connect, only when im close to the wifi router it does.but miui and sense roms connect perfectly and being far away. Ive use apps like wifi fix and stuff from market and still wont work. And I googled build prop wifi fix and dirent find answer. Ands its not the kernel cause ive used a stock rom with tdj kernel...so my question is how can I make it work? And my problem is only with stock roms. Any way with the build prop or an app or tweak? And it connects only when im next to router but disables when im more away. Thanks
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
Try these steps:
Restart the router by unplugging for 10 seconds and then powering it back on again. (I'm assuming it's not a router issue but sometimes this can simply be the cause)
This may be a bug in the ROM or an error during the installation, so I would re-download the ROM, verify the MD5 sum.
In CWM, backup the current ROM. Do a factory data reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache, go to mounts and storage and format /system. (this is to ensure there aren't any files lingering on the phone)
Flash the ROM, and after the flash wipe cache and dalvik cache (just in case.) Reboot.
If you're still experiencing WiFi issues it's most likely is a bug in the ROM and I would contact the developer of the ROM for a fix/workaround.
If you want to try, you can download the Kick Ass Kernelizer script by Zepplinrox found here:
Kick Ass Kernelizer RC7
After you have the script on your phone, install script manager from the market, err, play store
Navigate to the Kick Ass Kernelizer script and tap it. On the dialogue the pops up click 'run as root' and run the script.
Follow the on-screen instructions and choose if you want I/O tweaks.
After this, in order to make sure the script runs, there should be a log somewhere that would tell you
If it isn't running from your init.d folder you may have to navigate to your init.d folder at /system/etc/init.d
Find the script usually 98 something Kernelizer. Click it and select Run at boot as well as run as root. This should fix that issue if it's not running.
And if the kernel tweaks there don't help you, it's a bug. Contact the developer or switch to a different ROM
Wow thanks for all that help!

Wanna thank Evol4G for the idea of starting a thread to focus on future development of MIUI ICS and how it can carry over to other ICS ROMS.
This is an add-on thread to talk about Specifically MIUI ICS and the different parts of the ROM that need specific attention.
This is NOT the place to ask about HWA, WIMAX, lagginess or anything that is probably attributed to user error or lack of reading/searching skills.
GUIDE TO RUNNING A BUG FREE MIUIv4
This guide goes over all the steps you'll need to get as close as we can for a bug free MIUI, A lot of bugs people get can be avoided if the steps are done propperly that is why this thread is so important..
THE GOAL HERE IS TO GET EVERYONES EVO RUNNING SMOOTH!
IF YOU FEEL THAT YOUR METHOD IS BETTER PLEASE POST IT! The whole point here is trial and error to see how we can get these ROMS to run as smooth as possible and to expose the less than obvious bugs to help the devs pin point the issues..
I have followed all of the ICS Threads on XDA pretty carefully and I have made a career out of determining the very best way to go about setting up a new ROM on a phone.
I know that ALL of the Devs working on ICS Roms are fantastic in what they do and should be commended for what they have accomplished, but in MY opinion, Swiper/Fergie's MIUI v2.4.6 is the closest to a complete ROM out of any of them, but it's not as easy as a quick wipe and a flash to get it up and running.
This is how I flashed this ROM, from step 1 to finish and probably why i have a fast, responsive, almost bug free ICS ROM that is easily my daily. I'll never go back to Gingerbread.
A lot of this is the same as what I have in my All Things Evo Guide
The first thing I do is prep the ROM itself. I remove all the ringtones, alarms and notifications from the Zip file. I keep those on my SD Card already, so I don't need them in there. I also have Astro File Manager on my Phone and I use that to back up all my apps, occasionally. I take the apps that I know I'll need right away from the backup folder for Astro and add them to the zip.
Specifically, Titanium backup, Maps, GPS Status, Connectbot, and now, the new VVM for ICS, which DOES work!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1547780
Step 1. This is a MIUI ROM, which means GPS could be an issue, so the first thing I do is make a nandroid of my current Setup, then I restore my stock/rooted ROM.
Step 2. I update Profle and PRL, then I do the Sense GPS Fix.
You must be in a Sense ROM for this
Open Maps; get a lock on your position.
Open GPS Status & Tool Box, get a lock on your Sats and then hit Menu>Tools>Manage A-GPS State>Reset.
Open Dialer and dial ##GPSCLRX#
In the popup that asks for your password, enter your MSL, (You'll need MSL Reader from the market) then reboot.
When the phone is rebooted, Open Maps, get a lock; Open GPS Status, hit Menu>Tools>Manage A-GPS State>Download. Once you are locked onto your Sats, power down, then Reboot to Recovery.
Of course, I only use Amon Ra and in Recovery, I wipe everything, completely; Factory Reset., then each option underneat that, except SD Card:
Then I run Factory Reset again, then Cache and Dalvik Cache and Data again, jsut to make sure it's all clear.
Go to Flash, and Flash the Rom. Once it's done, go right back to flash and flash DT A2SD, the nI boot to System and once booted, I let it sit for a good 10 minutes, so everythign get's booted up and settled in.
At this point, I open LBE manager (Superuser) and set all my permissions to on and accept all.
I open Maps, get a lock, open GPS Status, and I already know I'll get a lock on my sats. Then I hit menu and update GPS Data.
Next is Connectbot, and I move my Dalvik Cache to my SD Card. Here's the commands
su
a2sd check
a2sd cachesd
The phone will reboot and again, I just let it sit for about 10 minutes.
Once I wake it up, I set my preferences, display, sounds, accounts, etc. MIUI ICS hasd a TON of new settings and one is the Status Bar Options. Hit Customize Statas Bar Notification and make sure Hide Notification is turned off. This will allow notifications to show up.
Once I'm done, I reboot to recovery, wipe Cache and Dalvik and Flash my Kernel.
The BEST kernel to use right now is Mason v0.14 SBC No FSO. I also Flash Vipermod.
That's it. If you use a different kernel and you have problems, this is the first place to look.
Upon reboot, I let the phone settle, then I open Titanium backup and restore my apps/Data. Now, I have had a lot of problems in the past with TB Freezing up when U try to restore all 117 apps I have in one session, so I do it in 3 now. I alphabetize the apps and then go A-H, I-P, Q-Z
Once finished, I open Rom Toolbox and go to Autostart Manager and make sure all the apps I DON'T need to be runnign at boot are toggled off. Then I set Car O Dope Tweaks. I'm one of the believers that Car O Dope is for AOSP, V6 is for Sense. I have yet to give Smurfs tweaks a run, but I plan to, soon.
I reboot and run Vipermod -50 in Connectbot, and then setup my desktop folders, etc. Then I g othrough any apps I need to set preferences for, Make sure VVM is working and that is basically it. Took some extra time, but I shake my head at the problems people are having that are almost alwasy attributed to shortcutting the process.
Almost all of the links and files anyone needs are on the guide in my signature
Bugs & Fixes.
• USB Connect - The two ways to fix this are with the app, USB Mass Storage in the market or the FTP Function is File Explorer.
• Camera only takes 3MP pics - D/L Camera ICS from the market and you'll get up to 8MP
• Theme Manager - There are very few themes for MIUI ICS. I understand that a new Theme Manager should be coming soon, according to the rumors.
• Music Player/Theme Sounds not seeing music folder - D/L Rescan Media form the market. Problem solved.
• Slow 3G/Data Speeds and Market Downloads. For me, after about a day, this fixed itself
Known Issues
No WIMAX
No HWA, yet
No Front Facing Camera
No Video Recorder
I know these are a lot of steps but if you can follow them I promise your phone will see massive improvement.. it's worth it, trust me
First of all, You'll see that my steps are close to hipkats that's because i learned a bit of this from him but I do a few things different, one of the main things is that I don't use the SENSE GPS fix, gpsfix from the play store works great for me and saves me the headache of the sense fix..
Secondly, I'm running swiperrat's MIUI 2.4.6, if you haven't tried it yet I suggest you do, it's the most stable yet IMO..
(*) asterick means that this step is highly recommended but not necessary
1) View thread to download Swiperrat's MIUI v4 HERE
* Download Dark Tremor's Apps2SD HERE
* Download viperMOD HERE
* Add 3rd party apks to the zip before flashing, this step isn't necessary but it does save you some time..(I added Titanium Backup,Terminal Emulator, GPSFIX, Srpint VVM for ICS)
2) Reboot into recovery (Amon Ra IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!GET IT HERE!!!!!)
3) Wipe user data/factory reset, cache, dalvik cache, data, and boot (I do factory reset, cache, and dalvik 3x)
4) Flash ROM (DO NOT FLASH CUSTOM KERNEL YET!!!)
* Flash DTA2SD
5) Boot up phone and let it set for about 10 minutes
* I recommend waiting until the sd has fully completed its read before unlocking the phone
6) Run GPSFIX
* If you have DTA2SD I strongly recommend moving cache to sd as well, I garuntee you will absolutely love how much free space you'll have on your internal storage
TO MOVE CACHE TO SD open up terminal emulator and type in all lowercase
"su"
"a2sd check"
"a2sd cachesd"
7) Reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik and flash custom kernel, I use MASON Kernel the one in my signature, and let sit for another ten (hipkats recommendation)
* Set up tweaks, I use Car-o-Dope which you can find HERE
8) Restore backup via TB or MIUI BACKUP
9) Use any kind of startup manager you have and disable all the apps you don't need to start up at boot.. (this helps reduce the time the phone takes to boot and stops stupid apps from running in the background behind your back) THANKS HIPKAT, idk why i was forgetting to do this, I used to all the time but the past 5 or 6 flashes I forgot lol
10) FIX PERMISSIONS (I hate ROM manager and don't even have it installed on my phone so this is how i do it)
- Open Terminal Emulator type in all lowercase "a2sd check" then "a2sd fixapk"
11) Reboot into recovery (only if you want vipermod, if not then just reboot)
* Flash Vipermod and reboot, then open terminal emulator again and type "vipermod" then set it to your liking (i set at -50mv)
12) Download MX player from the play store once installed go to settings and make sure s/w is checked and h/w is unchecked (THIS FIXES THE CHOPPY VIDEO!)
13) THE MOST IMPORTANT. IF YOU DON'T DO THIS YOU'VE WASTED SO MUCH TIME AND EFFORT!.. enjoy

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Just realized the recent version of dta2sd wasn't on my sd after reading your post.

I'm using an old version of dta2sd, it still works perfect but to be honest it's only because I've been to lazy to update... I guess I'll get on that tonight

I have the same version I've had for quite some time. Is there a newer version?

ya, hyperlink is in my post ;] tbh i'm reconsidering upgrading... I know the version i have works and have yet to have a problem with it so i don't really see the point in updating... anyways this thread needs some love... I would say move it to MIUIandroid but tbh this thread isn't supposed to be solely about MIUI in the long run it's supposed to help ALL ics roms but i don't think people understand that yet...
Native Messaging works for sending/receiving MMS in MIUI ICS by Swiper/Fergie so al lwe're waiting for is FFC, Video Recorder, HWA.. a few other things.
Since MIUI is based on CM, shouldn't this be able to be reversed to bring CM9 to the Evo?
