[Q]Phiremod MIUI?

ok so i flashed over the Phiremod Miui and got constant process.android.acore force closes..like every 10 seconds...i turned off my sync, but left background on and that slowed down the force closes...and of course there is the market issue as well...
it kinda bums me out because i like the MIUI rom...but yeah....anyone out there know of a fix for it?....i dug around in quite a few forums looking and couldn't find anything

i'm bumping this because i am still wondering if anyone has any input whatsoever...

I will reply. I put off responding because for the most part, people don't swear in their posts on this forum. Clean up your act.
2nd, there are threads in the development section for each rom which would address your problem if you would read them.
Nevertheless, when I flash a new rom I always format data, system and cache in clockwork mod recovery. Even tho some say you don't have to, I have found that it leads to a much better install.
I would not install any MIUI rom right now as there are problems with the market. I have not found a decent fix.
Standard cm7 or the MiRage roms are probably best for you.
Cm9 still has glitches that I don't think you are ready to handle (based on your experience with phiremods Miui).

Well i censored myself but that was mainly out of frustration, I usually have been able to fix most of my problems with any of my android devices...and this one was stumping me. I know there are separate threads in the dev section...but i did not have the allotted post count to post in those threads and did not want to spam a bunch of threads.
So, yeah i'm waiting on CM9 to get less buggy, simply because i want to use my NC as well as modify it, I prefer stable builds to testing or nightlies...I've been through that experience with a couple phones and it did not turn out well.
One of these days i'm going to jump in the deep end and try developing...but, as the rest of you. i'm quite busy when offline..
anyway, thank you for your input...

Apology accepted. Sounds like you know your way around android. But here are some suggestions if you are set on using Phiremods rom.
Again, in the mounts and storage section of recovery, format data, system and cache. Back out and do factory reset/wipe. I know people have said this is not necessary, but I have had problems when I have not done this.
Make sure you are using phiremods gapps. Standard cm7 ones won't work.
The market will fc. That is a given. You can uninstall updates to a certain point, then it will fc anyway.
I love the miui roms myself and am so sad that there is no new development on them for the nook.
I am using MiRage rom currently and am happy with it. I have also flashed samiams's cm9 and loved it but until they find a way to up the resolution and get video going, its not a daily driver for me.
If you are still having problems, post your install precedure and I'll see if I can help

I'll try that out, Also I read from someone that the Dark Market/Black Themed Market will stop the fc's on regular MIUI, So I will try that out as well and let you know...

[Q] Question About the different ICS roms for the Kindle Fire

I successfully installed a rom called USBWOOT.zip (thanks to all the hard work of the developers here, thanks so much guys!) however after doing a little more research I saw someone say the cm9 rom was better (latest one is here I think: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411895&page=210)
I've also seen a MIUI version.
Is there some kind of chart showing the pros and cons of each?
I also have some other noob questions:
Can I flash a new rom (like an updated version, or a different rom?) without losing all my settings, accounts, apps, etc? Or do I have to do a factory reset every time and start over?
Why I ask is I flashed the USBWOOT.zip originally, but it looks like the latest version (in that post I linked to) cm9-02-19.zip has some updates that sound really nice (especially the 200ms to 80ms wait time on screen change)
Since I flashed USBWOOT.zip originally do I need to do a factory reset first or can I just flash cm9-02-19.zip? If I have to do a factory reset will I lose all the accounts, apps, etc?
Thanks for all the help!

That cm9-02-1* roms are follow ups to USBWOOT.zip, they are build from the same source, it just uses a different name coding. Usually all build in that thread are very similar, even if they are build from different people and are named differently since our development is open source.
I would try it first without a total wipe, if you have any unkown problems then do a total wipe. (But a total wipe from time to time isn't a bad thing, since these days many things may change between versions)
MIUI uses a different launcher & other stuff.

I just updated to the latest build of CM9 as well. So far so good. Here is the link too. http://www.mediafire.com/?tnoxgzcgop46odm

Can you link us to the thread of the developer who compiled this Rom? Someone may want to read the discussion before blindly flashing an unknown zip file.

if its the same rom but just an update, you should get away with just flashing it on top and wiping dalvik cache. as always BACKUP FIRST and then resore and wipe if its not working like it should.
dont go with MIUI yet as its had way less work done and it doesnt even have USB ready.

It Worked
Thanks guys! I was able to flash the latest version without having to do any wipe or factory reset.
I am loving my new and improved Kindle Fire.

[Q] Couple of Revolution HD questions.

I recently picked up a used, rooted TF101 and I am loving it. The rom on it was a fairly unstable release of ICS and I quickly changed it to Rev.HD and it works great.
But, the previous rom had the ability to add a couple of programs to the unlock circle as well as the ability to hold the power button and reboot, reboot into recovery and power down the unit. These functions are not built into Rev. HD unless I am missing something, and that is possible. The other odd thing happens in Google Play, I do not see the whats new section for any of the apps that want to update. I could be missing something, have been using, rooting and roming my Motorola Droids for years, but ICS is a little different.
Thanks Matt

Well I can awnser your first question and indeed there is no advance power menu.
and second, I don't understand your question.
and 3, this topic is totaly wrong.
3a. if you post questions do that in the question forum
3b. this could be posted in the ARHD topic.

Please follow up these comments...

I am new to this site, the banner for the general section was subtitled with "Q&A". If there is a section that is for ARHD and not for development I would be happy to post there, but I have not been here long enough to hit 10 posts so I could not post in the development section.
I will try to explain my last question better... On my phones, in GPlay, when I choose one of my installed apps to update I get several panes. One of the is titled "What's New" and it lists changes in the current version. I do not ever see this pane in ICS GPlay and I really like to review this info. On the tablet when I choose an app to upgrade it goes straight to the "accept and download" pane.
Am I doing something wrong?

You were probably on a cm9 based rom which would explain the power menu with reboot to recovery and such. Megatron is probably closer to what you are looking for.
TF101 Megatron 1.0.4 Guevor test 19.2

The first ROM you had was probably a custom ROM also.
There's two ROM i know that you can customized the lock ring to add apps. AOKP and Team EOS and both those had Power button menu.
The Play Store work a little different on tablet vs phone.
When you see an app with update avaiable, you'll see a panel with teh usual "Open, Update or Uninstall" option.
Click on the app's icon, it will take you to a page with "What's New" ect.

First of all thanks to mike1986 for his work on this ROM.
I bought the Transformer rooted and with REVOLUTION HD ROM installed (don't remember the version 2.... ). After this i updated to 3.2.1 ROM and ALL was perfect. No errors, no random reboots no incompatibility with any app that i needed.
Since I was so confident with this ROM and the quality, I decided to upgrade to the last version (3.4.2) last night. All went ok, booted to lock menu and started to continously reboot. After litle observing I disabled the Wi-Fi and no more reboots. So i started to uninstall all apps related to wi-fi that I had installed in previous ROM (Wi-Fi manager, widget, Auto airplane mode). Than again I enabled the Wi-Fi via setings menu and the reboots returned.
Now i have the transformer with ROM 3.4.2 but no Wi-Fi!!! since it is not a 3G model, this puts me in a very frustrating situation .
Does anybody know how can i solve this matter or please post a link to REVOLUTION HD ROM version 3.2.1!
Many thanks to all and I hope someone can help me with this.

Solved my wi-fi problem
What can I say.... some digging in this forum and one solution was found . Even if the original post say you should not wipe if you are coming from dev's own ROM, actualy you should wipe. I just did that and installed again ROM 3.4.2.
Now all is working as it should!
Thanks again for this to all involved

Other tips. Look for an app here at XDA although I'm not sure if it was a transformer subforum or not called Reboot to Recovery. A shortcut to it on your home screen will give you the ability to reboot to recovery of the ROM you're using didn't offer that.

Thank you for this info. i'm stable and happy with ROM 3.4.2. for my next update i'll keep this in mind.

When I first started playing with custom roms, ARHD 3.4.2 was definitely my favorite. It has a very stock feel to it with many optimizations.
But when when I developed a better understanding of recovery and flashing roms, I switched to AOKP and its derivatives. They offer you a lot more customization options. I'm currently running Steel Droid v2 with the Harmony rev3 kernel.
Make sure to make a nandroid backup and use an app like titanium backup to keep everything safe and then experiment and find what's best for you.
ARHD is great, but I like Steel Droid sooooo much more!

Was this rom built using the paranoid android port guide?

......

Definitely a HUGE thanks to Socim!! The Paranoid rom is working really well on my phone. Only 1 reboot during initial setup with an up time of 45h. Very stable.

Thread needs to be retitled look at cm9 or Cm10 thread title for format. If not following proper thread title etiquette for custom roms we may get locked by mod.
Screenshots are a big + for rom thread, list of features.
List of working and non working elements of the rom with current release. Ensure this remains updated with each build.
Thanks

I have just transferred my data to new hard disk and it cost me two days.
Hopefully new build will be uploaded later today. With new kernel config it should be highly stable, many thanks to dr4stic. My phone haven't met any reboot for 52hrs.

Thanks for the updated ROM Socim. Just downloading and flashing now.
Quick Q - has anyone tried the Gapps version 20121011? Goo Manager informed me an update was available and I have downloaded it, but haven't flashed it yet.

I am still having some random reboot when I try to light up the screen from idle. But otherwise everything work fine and fast. ROM look amazing

Everything was great for me too... No reboots for 2 days, but what I did experience is lockups and slowdowns. I tried modifying cpu thresholds to no avail. Also had camera probs.
Really cool rom, I hope it gets support in the future to make totally stable... For now, had to revert back to 0829 cm9...stable stable land! Haha
Cheers

Weird, I've never encountered that issue. I assume you did a complete clean install of the Paranoid rom? Maybe get cat log running and log the event if it happens, I hear that helps devs track down the issue. Are any specific apps running when these reboots occur?

been running this ROM for around 24 hours noticed around 4 or 5 random resets and am still having the issue with instagram and youtube controls being put in the background. Otherwise the build is quite reliable and very snappy, Thanks for the effort!

The reboot for me only occurs during screen unlock. I have remove the patern unclock and since then did not see any reboot. Will let you know tomorrow the result
Update: I got another reboot this morning without any lock active. Will try another fresh install to see

[Q] Team EOS 4 Question (JB nightly 160)

Hello, thanks for letting me post here :good: [I don't have enough posts to ask this in the developer thread BTW]
Let me say that this is not a criticism of the fine work Team EOS do to make my Xoom as good as it is
I flashed the JB nightly 160 this morning and it all works great, except that the Gmail app no longer synchronises or picks up mail.
The accounts applet in settings no longer works either, it just does nothing when I click on it.
I flashed from nightly 158 and Gapps 20121208, I flashed 160 but did not clear any caches or factory wipe.
Just asking if this is a bug with the nightly or should I try again and wipe plus load Gapps after the 160 flash?
I also see that they have today linked Gapps 20121209 so maybe I'll give that a try.
I was just hoping to fix it without a full wipe is all (to avoid downloading everything and setting up again).
Many thanks!

I had same problem when I came from 157 to 158... Hence I did a clean install for 160 with 08 gapps and now there is no issue.

It is just first nightlies. There could be some bugs.
I just roll back to EOS3. As I felt laggy. Although 160 is much more smooth, I can still felt it.
I am not sure if the lag is due to hardware drivers.

:cyclops:I did the same.. and once I found the 09 dated Gapps... when I flashed them I wiped and after going through the steps .. everything I tested works smoothly.. the EOS nightlies work so well, it is almost impossible to believe that they are "in development"
TeamEOS = great tablet experience.
