[Q] miui 1.8.19 problems, how to fix? - HTC Desire S

I am using miui 1.8.19 by superkid and it is the best Rom but now I am back to the stock Rom because there are following problems and suggest for following improvements
1) music player hangs frequently and I have to remove battery. how it can be solved?
2) while calling I hear voice clearly but receipient tells voice quality is not clear and sound is not orignal. I.e voice changed to be like of old man. I found this problem in most of the custom told, but don't know why ?
3) sound volume is very low. can someone implement SRS enhancement from stock ROM?
4) after installing Hindi unicode font, text rendering is not perfect. how can we make it to render like Samsung galaxy s or galaxy ace or galaxy mini.

1) read a lot about this issue, most people say it's because of the equalizer. closing the equalizer has solved the problem for me

[Q] Looking apps from the ROM MIUI

Hello everyone.
Here after testing the rom MIUI, I found it very interesting but graphic bugs remained.
I went back to another rom.
But here, some of the apps MIUI was top.
My question: is it possible to recover somewhere. Apk?
I think of the music player is fantastic. There is also the consumer application, filtering, I would like to recover.
I tried to save them with titanium, he restores them to me but not a good start: I was returning to the office, or to crash the application.
Thank you for your help.
try this zip file:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17019671&postcount=17
Thank you for these apps, it works.
But I'm looking primarily :
- MIUI Player (MP3)
- MIUI Sound record
- MIUI Notes
- MIUI Fileexplorer
- MIUI Monitor (consumer 3G, ...)
- MIUI Antispam (screening calls)
thank

Well I've flashed it yesterday at 17:00....and I spent 9 hours after that to "learn" and play with my new phone I'll try to tell as much as possible about this ROM.
It is my first experience with a MIUI ROM and I must say I was impressed. All the settings are in totally different places or grouped in a different way compared to CM or sense ROMs I used till now. I can't say in which way differs from a normal MIUI ROM cause this is my first one to try as I said, but I can say some things I found out and compare them with the others ROMs I had
The first thing I was trying to get rid of was the...launcher. No offence to the MIUI lovers but I got used too much with CM or sense to like that launcher from MIUI. It may be fast and have good graphics but as I saw does not have a drawer and all applications are placed on separate screens as soon as they're installed (I think this is a MIUI characteristic). I've installed ADW Launcher EX which I've used since my old Legend and with which I'm familiar.
Apart from the launcher, I was thrilled about the graphical interface and the detail of each part of the theme. Someone in another thread said that "MIUI is about ALOT of customization"...I must agree. I've never seen a ROM having so many customization/theming posibilities with the exception of CM (or CM based ROMs). There are even backlight or LED settings to play with.
What I think that differs from the regular MIUI ROMs or CM having Theme Manager, is that there is an on-line theme database having ALOT of themes, each very well designed. One can choose each theme component and customize it to it's needs. Ranging from ringtones to status bar, notifications, screenlock, dialer and many others, each component can be selected from a different theme and matched alltoghether to create a unique one. The ICS theme I saw, it's very well made (though I never see the real ICS so I can't say if this is how it'll look like) you will see in all the print screens I've attached, as long as some settings screens with what cand be done.
The speed is...fast. I've done some Quadrant benchmarks with all my previous ROMs, I had 18000-2600 with CM 7.1 (OCed to 1500) and about 2000-2100 with Endymion V2.1 (also OCed to 1500). The lower benchmark values were due to an animated wallpaper I use curently (PuddleDrops), which drops the values. Having the same setup with PuddleDrops, in this ROM I got about 2000-2200 in Quadrant. Unfortunately I was not able yet to identify the speed at which processor runs so I can't tell if it's OCed by default or not. In Quadrant, the System Information does not show anything about the processor, only about graphics, I couldn't use OC/UV Beater cause it is not a supported kernel so...I don't know. But is not getting hot, battery life seems to be good (I've intensely played with the phone several hours and didn't drain the battery. There's also a battery monitor included with customisable notification.
WI-FI is good, have a stable signal but seems to find and lock onto the networks a little bit slower than the sense ROMs and I had ocasional "cannot reach network" messages. It's understandable , sense ROMs are the "kings" here cause they use proprietary HTC layer/drivers. But it is ok overall.
Network signal is great, I have almost all the time full bars, but I also live in an area where there is very good coverage, I think at this part all ROMs are similar, this one being a little bit ahead but not with much.
A feature I was thrilled about (dunno if it's a standard MIUI "thing" or not) is the firewall. It's the first ROM I see that has such thing integrated and "out of the box". And I'm not talking only about controlling the way each application has access to the net but also about filtering incoming calls and SMS's. You can define blacklists/whitelists and setup rules to block/reject/hide notifications for calls or messages. There is a firewall notification for each action (can be activated in settings) when running in "DND mode" and you can go dirrectly to the separate list for blocked calls/mesages from there. There's also option to automatically filter incoming unknown calls/messages. An addition to this is the "guard mode" that once activated, do not display at all any call in the call log or message in the message box. They're there just they're not shown up (alternate messaging apps like Chomp either FC or don't show them up in this mode).
There is an integrated data monitor also, showing traffic for Wi-Fi/mobile data separately and also accessing the firewall related to applications. You can set notifications for data limits you set and also see graphs with data traffic, number of incoming/outgoing calls and messages as well as individual application data usage.
Another feature that's standard for MIUI is the "power notification" swithes (CM has it also, sense has it in the quick settings) but in MIUI it's better cause you can customize it deeper and also having some switches I didn't saw in CM or sense ROMs...like the guard on/of or application access control on/of. Also the way to setup it as a grid or a single scrolling row it's awsome.
Having a standard dialer that can directly search in contacts (similar with the sense one), is another great addition. Standard for MIUI as I saw but a great feature. Of course this can be themed also separately. This makes me have no need of third party dialer as I was using in CM (DialerOne for ex). The ability to work with the contact groups directly is also very nice, till now I had to use a third party application. You can edit/add/remove groups, assign a ringtone to the group or send them messages
CONCLUSION! (no intention to troll, this is STRICTLY a conclusion from my point of view and it is not my intention to praise this ROM above the other great ones that are already out)
The ROM is great, dunno if it has or not some ICS "spice" in it but it's the only ROM I've played with, that almost doesn't require third party applications to be installed to have a total experience.
Sorry for the long post, I've tried to tell as much as possible to be usefull for others that never tried MIUI in general (or this ROM in particular). MIUI users can say alot more about the features and if they're "standard" in MIUI ROMs or not.
I'll also add print screens for each part I've detalied above, for each to see and compare. "A picture is worth a thousand words" it is said...and true
Enjoy...
Very nice review. Although I am a huge fan of MIUI, I don't trust this ICS builds. I've tested it for a day and it didn't impress me. So I am back to miui.us build, superkid did an awsome job.
Thanks a lot for this thorough review Rapier :-D

You know better. As I said, this is the first MIUI ROM I've flashed. Now that I've got the MIUI "flavor", I'll be tempted to try some others as well and see if all have the same features with this one (or at least the ones that I need: firewall being on top of my list)
Don't know what to say about how much (or less) of ICS is in this ROM, if someone can tell what logs or checks I should extract (and how), I'll do it.
Fantastic Review; MIUI is most definitely the most complete ROM there is right now for Android. I had heard people say that it was too much like iOS and how bad that was; I was reluctant to try it, but once I did, I found to be more like a Ubuntu on Android, than iOS. That said, once you give MIUI a fair try, you won't want to go back to another ROM; MIUI is a complete package; it looks great and functions great.
How do we check out the ICS enhancements?
one big Review thanks a lot Rapier
Are there any major bugs on it? Coz I have downloaded it and I won't flash it until it is major bug free.

Since I've flashed it I've played alot. What can I say is that has the "standard" bugs of MIUI:
1. Problem with the country code for the incoming calls.
Regardless of how you save a number in address book (that is with or without country code), incomming calls are displayed with 00 prefix and for incomming messages are displayed with the country code. For ex if I have the number stored as 0040721234567, when that person calls it'll be displayed as (00)0721234567 and when receiving SMS from the same person it will be shown as (004)0721234567.
That's not a big issue itself cause the caller is recognised and it's contact details, picture, ringtone, etc used, BUT...the integrated firewall does not filter the call/SMS properly cause it's looking for the whole number (including country code) and that's not a match. Saving the number without country code does not work either cause in that case the call is displayed the same (00)0721234567 but the firewall looks for something like 0721234567 (as the number is stored in the address book).
Way to solve it: Either add in the firewall BOTH numbers (like (004)0721234567 and (00)0721234567)) OR install a separate call firewall/blocker. I used the second option and installed the best available one (in my opinion) Call Master Beta available on the Market (original thread on XDA HERE).
2. Integrated MIUI dialer does not support "speed dial" keys. That is, you cannot assign a key for quick dial a number.
Way to solve it: Install a third party dialer (like DialerOne available on the Market) or live without speed dial.
These were the ones that bothered me, I heard about some "YouTube uploading" problems generally speaking in MIUI but not tested it.
What was a surprise (good one this time) is that the MIUI Control Panel (or Extended Settings how it's called) is working on this. I took the Extended Settings made for MIUI 1.11.11 and it's working even if this version of MIUI is 1.11.9.
Apart from these I couldn't find any problems (major or not) in 4 days of heavy usage
I do not see the diffrence between MIUI and this rom. If you install "NeonBT" theme all the colors and everything exept the lockscreen will look the same as in this rom. So yes its based on miui and i can see that
The only bugs i have in MIUI is the lockscreen is mostly slow, and worse then slow on some themes.
Dont use speed dial, so dont know what bug that is.
But there is no problem with country codes on my phone and ive used MIUI for the last months. And never had that issue.
I only want someone to tell me whats this ICS framework ?
Another bug is that the stock and Swype keyboards don't vibrate . It's really annoying.

cool review but I think I stay at 'normal' MIUI and wait for MIUI 4.0 official release

Hi, I live in UK and all of my contacts are saved with +44(1234567890) and in messaging app is all fine, i can see the names of contacts. but the problem is when i get incoming call i see the phone number instead of name for example the number saved in phonebook as +44(1234567890) on incoming call shows as 01234567890 so instead of +44 there is 0 . So as you advised I installed Call Master and i tried to set it up , i tried many ways and i still couldn't resolve the problem.
Any ideas? Please.

BTW I've been following your posts all over the forum, and its nice to see one more active member in these parts. Haven't seen you here before the last couple of weeks or so...
In case no one else did it, here's a warm welcome to the DS scene.

Installing different rom.

A have a question.
1)I have install pixel rom 1.7 for nexus s + matr1x kernel.The device runs very smoothly .No problems at all only when trying to see youtube vids through browser it's very slow and if i hit fullscreen it might get stuck!Anyone experiencing this problem?
2)A have read many things that pixel rom includes :Voodoo Sound v10
Voodoo Colour v2
Deep Idle Bluetooth Fixes
Updated colour schemes
Transparent Notification Pulldown
Transparent Power Widgets .....
and so many other.
My question is i tried to find voodoo music & voodoo colors and i can't find them.I mean aren't they build-in the system(kinda o noob question i know )
.Apart the apex launcher i canot see any difference.
3)If i wish to install a different rom or kernel i simply zip it above the current or is there a different procedure?
Thanx for your time!

Equalizer apps not working

THE ISSUE:
-The current stock equalizer only offers options for Bass & Treble and "Lound" (Loud?.. it adds loudness). When volume is up it sounds like portion of sounds is missing (quite midrange effect)
-Currently I am not able to use any equalizer app except the one that comes stock with the ROM
-When installing equalizers, some fail to open and are forced to close; others install but simply do nothing when changing the settings
STEPS TAKEN:
Disabled stock EQ app in settings and cleared data/cache - Alternate equalizer apps still did not work
Disabled stock music player app in setting and cleared data/cache - Alternate equalizer apps still did not work
Looked for 'Settings>Sound>Music Effects' option to switch to new equalizer being used - 'Music Effects' option does not exist for this build
Attempted using music player apps with equalizers built into them - equalizer option in app doesn't show - other apps like this just don't start (they are forced to close when starting)
THE DEVICE:
-Model: SNT-210
-System Version: 4.4.2-20140516-sntb-HOMEMADE
-Kernel Version: 3.0.101-gdaab9de-dirty
[email protected] #46
-Build Number: omni_sntb-eng 4.4.2 KOT49H eng.QDroid.20140516.133512 test-keys
-Basband Version: Unknown
Does anyone have any suggestions to resolve the issue? If they would have included a good stock EQ it would be nice..
If anyone knows where I can find good custom rom(s) for this device that may also be helpful.
UPDATE - I got Poweramp working on there, equalizer and all! It doesn't sound the best, would be better if I had more options but gonna try to make due with this.
This is a cusptech head unit right?
It is a little bit late but I got a solution for you.
They simply did a very bad job in editing their config files. Check the file audio_effects.conf in /system/vendor/etc.
Simply delete it(or move it if you like a backup). After rebooting you will be able to install any Equalizer that you want. I am using Viper4Android since a year without any problems.
But even with viper or poweramp equalizer, the sound of these units are distorted, the mesured frequency response is a joke. I could not even correct it with an external DSP.
The way I am trying now is to plug a USB DAC(like hifimediy) to the system and bypass all the sound processing crap that they have implemented on their mainboard, espcially the TM2312 chip.

Can't find options for equalizer + auto-merging contacts

hello,
since 2 weeks i'm owner of a 6039k and i really like that device. the are only 2 things i can't find (and i thought it's more like a vanilla android ):
1. i have no equalizer-settings (except that jbl-sound on/off switch - but even with my jbl-earphones it sounds horrible). do have any idea how to enable the lollipop default equalizer? or can you recommend an equalizer for me (should be small/fast - i've tried some apps but they decreased the loudness very hard)
2. on my last samsung devices my contacts used to have a function of "auto-merging" similiar contacts. on idol i can merge single contacts, but i can't find any option like i had before. do you have any tipps?
thnx, peter
