[Q] MIUI Kernel/ Glitch - Samsung Mesmerize

Been using H57 and imnuts voodoo kernel for a while. Having tons of problems with the phone rebooting at random. At least once a day, it freezes when I press the lock button to wake it up...vibrates once, then twice, then reboots with no response from the panel.
Looking for better performance and more reliability. Anyone have experience with the MIUI Rom? What doesnt work properly? Is it recommended?
If so, what is the best kernel to use? I hear lots of good things about the glitch kernel. What is the installation procedure?

Read and re-read here for info on MIUI. Everything works with pretty much the same quirks with AOSP ROMs (sensors, occasional phantom ring, in-call volume depending on kernel, can't charge with phone powered off, etc).

Depends on what your needs are. Use the bundled JT's V3 kernel for better in-call volume, or use Glitch's kernel for oc/uv and voodoo color. The installation is the same as any kernel on CWM4. The in-call volume is being worked on by a couple of people on Glitch's V12. You can find V12 Beta Wave 2 here.

You flash it just like any other ROM; the difference here is that it will flash CWM4, reboot, and automatically flash MIUI. Take the same precautions as you would when flashing anything else.
Make sure you read dfgas's instructions on how to return to stock just in case you need to go back.

Awesome, thanks for the tips!
Went with the install last night. For some reason, It didnt not upgrade my CWM...im still on 3.2.2 yellow...but the MIUI rom is installed and runs great.
I notice that voodoo lagfix is not included on this kernel- is it not recommended for MIUI?
A couple of quirks I have noticed- no flashlight app works. Any recommendations to get it back working?
Other than that , I love it. Awesome personalization and performance so far.

CWM3 actually still stays installed, but don't use the 3-finger method to use it, anymore. When you choose reboot from the phone, you can choose recovery to go into CWM4. You can also use ADB to reboot into recovery from your PC or from a terminal session.

Voodoo lagfix fixed the slowness issue with the slower RFS filesystem by converting it to EXT4. MIUI/CM7 is EXT4/Yaffs by default.

That's one of the issues with the Mesmerize and CM7-based ROMS. The flash will work with the camera, but the flashlight/torch feature currently doesn't work.

[Kernel]Froyo 2.2 ROMs- 7/21 - fps-fix

this is a kernel that i compiled direct from toast's HTC-Supersonic-2.6.29 source. toast and netarchy all put in their fixes and enhancements so i take no credit but altering the kernel that netarchy posted in this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=719763 thread.
this is based off his 3.7.1 kernel that enables around 55-57 fps on both epson and novatek screens. Like he said, it disables the HDMI so if you need that, don't use this. in fact, this kernel will have all the issues that netarchy's 3.6.2 might have, but the touchscreen does work and you should still get ~55 fps average on fps2d.
this means that the kernel also comes with overclock and undervolt, compcache modules, audio boost and everything.
the kernel that's included is only compatible with ClockworkMod recoveries, sorry for those who use Amon_RA! i can't seem to make a working boot.img, and koush's way of updating kernels also is a lot easier to use
i highly highly doubt this has the possibility to break your phone but if it somehow does, i don't take responsibility.
once again, all credit goes to netarchy, toast, and all other people who i may have missed.
if you're using this kernel and get around 40 or so frames per second, here's probably the best thing to do. go to setCPU into the Advanced tab, and set the Up threshold to a value between 65-75. I chose 65 and i consistently get 55-57 average with stdev of 4 or 5.
edit: i just compiled a new kernel straight from Netarchy's sources, as he says that he updates his to the latest at all times. so, the new version is 3.6.4, because that's what his is. remember, this is exactly the same as his kernel, except that i just modified something to make it work for Froyo ROMs.
enjoy!!
edit: wifi does work, i think it's just that for some people who are flashing it over a ROM it might not work. I re-flashed evolution v9 and wi-fi worked again
using amon ra 1.7.0.1 i got
E: Missing file:
system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko

this DOES NOT work.... but thanks for playing

yeah i doubt it works on amon ra, cause it's something made for clockworkmod. could you flash clockworkmod and then try this kernel, and tell me if it works?
btw, the bcm4329 appears because i found a kernel that i could use so i just replaced the zImage inside it. the original one was supposed to put the bcm4329 in /system/lib but i took it out cause it wasn't necessary.
will this work on the froyo sense rom?

Wow... brutal guys.

i'm not trying to trick you guys. why don't you guys tell me what's wrong instead of telling me "fail" and giving me some stupid crap like failhorn.com
it works 100% fine on my phone, running EVOlaunchv9 froyo. so why don't you tell me what's not working and NOT be douches about it?
Douches.
Thanks for making this, man. I've been waiting for this kernel to support Froyo. Works great so far. Only thing is Wifi Tether isn't working, despite trying to reflash the fix from ffolkes thread. Might have something to do with clockwork recovery, though.

Can you not use that patch that is in the Nova FPS kernel thread for the 802.11 N and 4G. Just a thought, when I flashed to the kernel in that thread I lost my wireless too and then i flashed that patch and it started working again. I am new to this game, sounds logical to me lol.
Worked great on my phone, running Damage Control's newest. The only thing is that I had 5 points of touch with the kernel just for the novatek screen and 44fps. With this kernel I only had 3 points of touch and only 41fps. Still good work, dont let those other guys get you down. Thanks
Noticed this is based off 3.6.2
Maybe the wifi problem will go away if 3.6.3 is used instead. Looks like the audio boost patch was removed as it was causing problems with bluetooth, and no fluffy pink bunnies were harmed in the making of 3.6.3 so its peta approved
I had 5 touch points using Dotty on ffolkes kernel.. Only got two with this one.
Sent using the power of swype.
good god there are some real ******** on this board as of late !
op thx for the work when i flash a 2.2 ill give it a shot
Way to show this Guy support you tools!!!!!!!!
tried it running evolution v9. everything worked great except for wifi which was already stated. appreciate the work you've done. thx
when i get home from work i'll see if i can build the kernel again. it might be 3.6.3-based if netarchy and toast updated the kernel source on github, but otherwise we'll be stuck with this one till they do so.
sorry about the wifi guys, i spent a few hours and i could not get it to work. but if you flash the wifi/4g fix on ffolkes's kernel's page (the link is on the first post), you'll get wifi tether working at least

Issues with installing certain ROMS [SUCCESS!!!]

Some of the user's here, myself included, have been having issues installing any ROMs/ kernels built by Faux. What I'm trying to do is pinpoint the exact cause of this and hopefully rectify the issue.
I'm currently downloading all available ROMs and will install each to determine which are flashable and which are not.
Flashing Procedures
0. Boot into CMW Recovery: External with EXT 4 support using volume down + power method
1. Wipe Data
2. Wipe Cache
3. Wipe Dalvik
4. Format /System
5. Flash ROM
6. Select Power Down from CMW Menu
7. Power on phone without wall charger plugged in
ROM List:
Bionix- Confirmed as working
EagleBlood GB- Confirmed as working
EagleBlood FR- Confirmed as working
Ultimate- Confirmed as working
Light&Sinister- Confirmed as working
Dark&Sinister- Confirmed as working
Faux AOSP-NOW WORKING!!
CM7- Confirmed as working
LG Stock- Confirmed as working
Observations:
Bionix converts /system and /data to ext3. I figured that if the issue we were having with Faux was due to format errors then I could just flash Faux over Bionix and it would boot. In testing, it seems like Faux gets further when flashed this way but still refuses to boot. Before I would only get the initial LG screen and then it would black out. Now I can get to the second LG screen with blue background but it hangs there. Will run logcat to see what is causing the freeze once I get logcat running again.
My current theory is that there is a difference in the boot.img that Faux has built for his ROM that will not boot correctly. I have the same issue with his kernels as well. They boot to the first LG splash screen and then the screen shuts off. Still struggling with my logcat issue so I'm at a standstill until that is fixed.
Development:
I was finally able to get pure AOSP to boot by flashing Faux's AOSP and then flashing Morfic's CM7 kernel. I personally believe this definitely proves that there is something in Faux's boot.img that doesn't function properly on all devices.
At Faux's suggestion, I flashed his Stock Voltage kernels in order to see if I could get the phone to boot.
Kernel:
[ Start @ 1.0 GHz, Stock Voltage, Max @ 1.2 GHz ]
(Official LGE/Tegra Voltage Values, Same as STOCK LGE Kernel)
CM7 Kernel Version 0.1.9- Boots to second LG splash screen then freezes.
CM7 Kernel Version 0.1.9 With EXT4-Booted fine but still displayed Morfic boot animation for some reason. Kernel version shows as Faux's in about phone, though.
I want to flash my first ROM, any suggestions on which one is the most stable and better with battery life than the Stock ROM?

I didn't test any of the ROMs for quality but I would personally stick with a Froyo based ROM for now. Gingerbread is simply too buggy and missing a lot of features.

I was finally able to get pure AOSP to boot by flashing Faux's AOSP and then flashing Trinity's CM7 kernel. I personally believe this definitely prooves that there is something in Faux's boot.img that doesn't function properly on all devices. That would explain why I am unable to flash any of his kernels, either.
Most likely scenario is that you have a "weaker" chip which cannot handle the default OC to 1.1 and Under volting. Because of your case and a few others like you with the "weaker" chips, I have decided from next version on to include LG STOCK VOLTAGE version of my kernel as default kernel for the ROM and it's up to the users to install the OC/UV version themselves afterwards.
My solution is while in CWM, after you flashed the ROM, before you reboot, FLASH my STOCK VOLTAGE (SV) version of the kernel, then reboot. You should have NO ISSUES with STOCK VOLTAGE kernels.
So far for MT4G and G2x, I have been lucky with my phones. Both phones I can Undervolt and overclock AT the SAME TIME with very aggressive settings and remain stable with multiple runs of stress tests and benchmarks.

The only problem with that theory, Faux, is that Morfic's kernel undervolts as well. Flashing his kernel on top of your ROM is the current workaround that I've found.

I don't know what Morphic is doing with his under volting, theres no source code to compare. My source is based on CM7 with my tweaks added and its available via github for inspection.

Please don't view my opinions as doubting your ability. This has just been a frustrating journey for a lot of us because we want to use your kernels/ROMs. I couldn't find anywhere where this had been addressed so I decided to take it upon myself. At this time, the two options we have are flashing your stock voltage kernel or Morfic's. Now that it's booted and running, I can say that you've built a beautiful ROM and I hope you continue to support it. Amazing work.

I took NO offense of your investigation or posts. I am actually glad you did all these. You have provided me reason for using stock voltage kernel as default. I was contemplating about this change a while back, but since your post, I decided to do it so more people can try my ROM without having random reboots or issues due to UV/OC combination.
I am simply posting what I can and cannot do. I can do only what I can read and see.

LinuxBozo experience of Ghostie.Napkinz

Just wanted to start off and say a BIG THANKS for LinuxBozo and his amazing infuse mod which lets us use the other samsung roms (JVQ restricted )
I have been experimenting ALOT with various roms and thought i would share some of which i have tested out so far, the only one which gave me some issues was Sensation 2.0 , seems like when you reboot, sometimes you get no netwrok, then reboot, and icons are missing, so its a question.
Obviously this isnt really an OFFICAL rom for the Infuse, but id like to know if anyone else has had nice experience or recommendations for use with this dude's rom.

Hellraiser uses the same Rogers RIL that Infused v2 does, so probably not. (RIL is one of the things that gets swapped out.)
It's often hard to tell for sure because many frameworks won't show HSPA+ even if the RIL/modem are operating in that mode. Hell, even our original Froyo ROMs were broken in that way - they displayed UMTS when in HSPA+ mode. (UMTS is plain vanilla 3G.)

Been running GingerReal V7.1.4 JVQ with Infusion GB kernel and I must say it's snappy. I have not had a single problem with anything. And from what I read Quadrant scores don't mean much, but I got a 3500 OC at 1.6. without Stagefright. I did'nt know Stagefright was til I Googled it. But my phone is very fast and I am very happy.

Which ROM did you test for JVP , i might give it a whirl, i finally finished going through all those roms, The Vibrant rom wasnt very exciting, and seemed to lack the extended power menu drop down which has Reboot, recovery download mode and such, thats a big thing for me.
Darky was my favorite so far,I might try Sensation. If anyone wants to test out a couple JVP roms and try adding in the APN settings, lets see what comes up and post which rom you tested.
Thanks everyone for their input on this, im getting more interested now and i will be trying to use the Infusion Kernel with some of these roms and see if i get a performance boost.
Im not sure if its just me, but whenever i reboot ANY of those roms which are installed with Linux's software , it seems sometimes the icons on the app drawer l ike disappearing, then when i reboot, apps reappear, but the Network to ATT gets cut off, then i reboot again, and sometimes its normal..........Any ideas?

BTW, the default behavior in Sensation is no extended power menu, but if you use the app "Theme Settings (included in the ROM) you can change this.
As to the other issues - that's a new one, I haven't seen it before.

I ran Hawkish 4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032599
I chose it because I saw that the ROM included the background effect from the SGSII, which while I have the SGSII & this feature seems to throw my photos to the way over saturated side - its more appealing for home screen settings and every day use since everything just looked almost wet or gooey. But the setting didn't work I imagine a kernel conflict, but I'm sure this could be built into one of our ROMS later and I wouldn't mind helping out with putting it together.
Overall I thought this ROM was a little laggy for the phone, I'm sure there are others out there that could run MUCH better or smoother.
I find it funny that we get a stock phone and find it boring so we flash a brand new phone to something completely different within an hour and when the next phone comes out we want their stock stuff so we can see how it is on OUR phone...HAHAHA -addicted

I think those are controls for Voodoo Color which:
1) Is extremely difficult to implement on our device (significantly different screen)
2) Is not necessary on our device - our screen fixes most if not all of the problems VC was intended to fix.

Yes sir, I believe you are exactly right. I normally don't like over saturation, but on a HUGE screen it looked great with some gooey gingerbread green stuff around it. My photography looked horrible especially HDR shots, worth it though. The colors on the SGSII and this phone are pretty different tho. But a lot to do with the same resolution on a smaller screen. The screen on the Infuse is a big (no pun) factor that held me to it rather than the SGSII

Okay heres me scenario, hope it helps understand.
1) started off with phone already rooted and such and previously had Infused V2.00 full., Downloaded a JVQ rom ( like Darky's ) , and then downloaded Linux Bozo's rom/mod ) Put both of the zips on the ROOT of the internal SD .
2) backup info and boot into Red recovery.( Shut off device, then hold Vol - and + while pressing power ), release power and continue holding both volume keys).
3) Perform the following
Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache partition, Wipe Dalvik Cache
Install zip from SD card and select the ROM you want to use
Do install from SD card again and this time select the Linux Bozo zip
4) Reboot and you will be in your rom after 10 minutes ( be patient, it takes time ). If you want better performance, install the Infuse GB Kernel. Get it here

I've successfully flashed a JVQ Rom. I'm trying to figure out how Infiniti350 was able to flash a JVP Rom.

I just followed the exact instructions the OP posted up above. With 1 mishap, when I downloaded what I thought was the ROM....I only got the lock-screen (what happens when you read things way too fast & think you know what you did) which I already downloaded and flashed
I mounted the SD card while in recovery and pushed the file containing the ROM over to the phone - flashed it - flashed LinuzBozo's stuff - rebooted & things went well all I had to do was add APN's back.
I really like my current set up BUT I'll probably find something else, before I load the ROM I want I'll run this again with a JVP base and see how things go & defiantly let you guys know. Now I'm curious why it doesn't work for other people.

I think sometimes people either have a bad flash or don't properly wipe data. Same reason lots of people randomly had problems with Infused. (I haven't tried JVP myself though.)
Well, i just finished wrapping up my favorite roms, and i keep jumping between the Sensation rom, and Darky's Rom .
BUT!
I always data wipe, clear cache, factory reset
Idk if this helps, but i saw theres a new Linuz BETA 6 , perhaps this might help problems that a few have been going through.
In closing, i really hope more ROMS designed for the Infuse come fast , i got a feeling with this new mod there will be many to come

This is a very good point. The data wipe is vital for the Infuse no matter what. I have tried it with and without the wipe & all sorts of very strange things go wrong at random. Market apps wont download - Errors when using data - Youtube errors - issues with email. Each time I did it different ones would act up too, never the same.
Full Wipe so far has fixed it without failure
*Edit - Full for me same as prasadudwadia said above - data, cache, and factory reset.

MT4GS will not wake up using Virtuous Inquisition 4.0.2

I recently downloaded virtuous inquisition on my mytouch 4g slide. I have an intermediate understanding of computers and was able to install the ROM and am quite happy with the experience it offers. I however have began to experience my phone freezing and not waking up. While I am usually able to have the phone enter and exit sleep mode no problem, sometimes when I press the power button to enter sleep mode, the screen will go black, but the backlight on the physical keys and slide out keyboard will remain on. Pressing the power button will not turn off the backlight or bring the screen back from sleep mode. Interesting to note that when I call my phone while in this state it will still ring and vibrate, however the screen will still not light up and I can not answer. The green notification light will also still blink. The only way I found to get out of this state is to physically pop out the battery and then restart. I was not experiencing this problem with stock ROM. Thanks for your help!
Do you have Revolutionary S-Off or do you have the new bootloader that is HTCdev unlocked & S-on?
When this happens see if trackpad wake works. I know on cm9 when I have sleep of death the trackpad wakes it right up

While both my trackpad and power button worked to wake up while in stock, only my power button worked from day 1 when I started using Virtuous Inquisition. My trackpad activated nothing while in sleep mode. I assumed this was just a normal part of the ROM?
When you installed your ROM did you do full wipes and then fastboot flash boot boot.img to seperately install your kernel? If not, that'll mess up tons of different stuff.

Yes, I did wipes to system data, catche, and Dalvik catche in CWM all directly before installing the ROM. Right after I installed the .zip file, I flashed the boot.img file in fastboot.
That just DOESN'T sound like anything my wife or me have ever experience on VI. It's always been one of the most stable ICS ROMs either of us has ever used. AMAZING battery life too. VERY strange! Are you running extreme OC or anything that might make it unstable? If not, that one just stumps me. ....maybe UV?

No, I am not even OC because I have found the speeds when running VI on my phone to be fast enough and fine. Overall, I would agree that VI is extremely stable and have not found really any other major glitches. Only the minor tethering and camera glitches that they disclose when downloading. In someways this makes me inclined to think it could possibly be hardware, however I find it strange that I never have this particular problem in stock ROM.

Maybe it's just a timing issue in that the hardware issue arose after changing ROMs. Possible a packet got corrupted during the download. Maybe redownload and flash over what you have now? I just don't know.
Why don't you make a nand if that doesn't work and then flash MikTouch. It's stock just debloated & rooted. Maybe that will give you some indication that you aren't getting right now.
It may BE as simple as a hardware issue. Not good by any means but it may pinpoint it.
VI Blackouts
VI w/the GB kernel 2.6 would blackout like that from my experience. Check the third post on rootz and load the v3 beta kernel. I used VI for a few months, until I switched to CM9. I think I only blacked out once during that time with that kernel.

Do you have a link to the page you are referring? I have not upgraded the kernel and want to make sure of the steps. Thanks!

[Q] Phone application force closes after finishing a call...

Hello, all.
I have a T-Mobile Blaze 4G with rooted stock ROM (Gingerbread), flashed radio version T989UVMC6, manually debloated and dewizzed. I'm running Halo launcher and Busybox Free version 9.6.
Since almost the first day I've had this phone, it would occasionally force close the phone process, usually when hanging up the phone with the Bluetooth radio on and paired with an earpiece. It happened bone stock, rooted, after I changed the modem, whenever. It seemed to happen less often after I changed the modem. The process always starts back up, but the Bluetooth device connection and system sound controls are wonky (unusable) until the phone is rebooted.
The only thing that seems to stop it is running Zepplinrox's V6 Supercharger script. That, however, occasionally freezes the entire system when trying to open certain apps, requiring a reboot. I've run earch after search on this subject, and nobody else seems to have this problem. The only thing I haven't tried is wiping the whole thing and flashing a custom ICS or JB ROM. I tried Dark Knight ver. 8 and hated it pretty much instantly.
I have two questions. Number one; Will flashing a custom ROM fix this situation? I figure that this must be a problem with the crappy stock Samsung ROM. Number two; Which ROM is fully functional and stable? I'd really like to keep this phone dependable. I don't care about the latest and greatest funky cool features that are hit-or-miss at best. I just need dependable, fast and functional.
Since you have been having issues for a while, I would suggest starting fresh. With a few runs of black hole wipe from cwm. Add a run of the gremlin remover for extra cleanliness. Then a flash of the latest ICS rooted stock rom and kernel, for reliability.

I'll definitely go for the rooted version! Does it matter what order in which the ROM and the kernel are flashed? Also, I take it from the name of the download link that I'll have to go through the process of de-bloating this thing again. S'okay, I actually enjoy that part, but I don't want to screw it up since I've not messed with anything newer than GB. Is there a good guide somewhere on the forum for apps that can be dumped safely? I know there was one for GB stock root.
Thanks for the response.

A few more silly questions; Do I need GAPPS or is that just for CM? Aren't the CM 10 ICS nightlies fairly stable and relatively bug-free? I use CM7 on my Nook color and it's...okay... Just a few little annoying things pop up with that. To be honest, I like the idea of starting with a clean slate and adding stuff I like rather than pulling stuff out of the Samsung stock ROM, but the issues I've had with the Nook and CM7 have sort of scared me off. Your opinions?

All the AOSP ROMs for the Blaze needs GAPPs. And yes. The latest CM10 nightly is stable. And you said CM10 ICS? CM9 is ICS and CM10 is Jellybean.

The stock roms don't require gapps, but like Wolf said the cm10 jb variants do.
If your willing to use cm10 it is very stable. Just use the latest CM10 nightly and not the old stable version.

Of course. I get a bit confused ever since people started talking about 10.1.
Okay, I went ahead and installed the stock rooted ROM with the stock kernel. Went through the debloating process (mostly, there are some apps that I'm not sure I can do without so they stay for now), and did some customizing. I'm seeing a bit more battery drain. Is this an issue with ICS or do I need to try another kernel or supercharge the phone? I also have this crazy issue with ROM Manager ver. 5.5.3.0. It tells me that there is an updated version of Clockworkmod Recovery, but it freezes when I try to flash from ROM Manager. Also, ROM Manager freezes when I try to reboot into Clockworkmod Recovery. Maybe I need to test a bit more before I mess with it any more.
**EDIT** Well, it looks as if my CWM recovery installation is corrupted. Can I reflash it without messing up my current ROM?

Yes, with Odin, in the Dev forum
BTW, stay away from ROM Manager with our device. I've softbricked so many times because of it, it's ridiculous

Since you have it setup, except for battery life. I would make a backup, then try a mod one at a time and see if any help. Also check the battery stats to see if anything of is seen. ICS will use more juice than GB, generally.
I would suggest Nos/direct injection, supercharger, or cross breeder. I would use one and see, then restore and try another.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=565
Some time later...
I've been using the stock rooted ICS ROM since my last post, debloated and dewizzed of course, with Holo Launcher and T989UVMC6 baseband version flashed. Just over a month has passed, and I have good news!
I FREAKING LOVE THIS PHONE!!!
All of the force close and freezing issues have vanished, the phone's battery lasts almost as long as it did on GB, it's WAY more user friendly, and the phone is as fast as it ever was.
The bad news is that my wife got a GS4 and I lust after it now. : /
Thanks to everyone for their help!
