[Q][ROM][MIUIV4] by KingSoft 3.1.25 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All!
I've just installed MIUIV4 3.1.25 made by KingSoft [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113035 ] but it looks like GPS is not really working. I was wondering if I'm the only one to experience this issue and if there is a known fix or what might cause the problem? Other than that works very well and the ROM is stable!
I was meant to post into the ROM's thread but it appears that I do not have enough privileges for that.
Any reply it very appreciated.
Thank you all!

FIXED!
I've flashed another modem JVU and also installed FasterFix from Play . Not sure if they are related, but GPS is now working fine. Almost instant connection with 5-6 satellites out of 8-9.

CM9 Nova HD Plus v1.1 discussion

Hi All,
Since i am not allowed to post directly to the original thread to the great CM9 ROM from hei1125 -- Nova HD Plus v1.1,, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508492
I have to ask here who had this ROM and discuss our experiences.
So far i got 2 issues:
- the voice call is very light said the call receiver, could anyone confirm? is there a way to increase the volumn?
- Google map zoom with two fingers is pretty bad, not smooth as it used to be on CM7
Thank you.

For calling and internet related issues, I would always check baseband and RIL first. I'm using the 750 baseband (as suggested by the developer) and got the matching RIL with GetRIL from the market. I have no issues with volume. I'm not quite sure whether I can reproduce your Gmap zoom issue, but perhaps this is because we are still lacking some graphic drivers from nvidia. Just my 2ct...

Yes I did had a lot of troubles with baseband and RIL,,, i tried GetRIL for help with my the latest temsak Kang, where i had problem that sometimes the mobile network is disconnected while screen off.
I felt this new ICS ROM is much better related to connection, only the volumn is too low.
I installed RC3-6 and really enjoyed the ICS experience. The ROM is smooth and stable as advertised.
However some key features are not working i.e. camera video
and some minor things like no support for wired headset button which ruins my usual music listening routine.
I tried this with Ironkernel but couldnt get it working due to the low memory error.
Wiped and installed again without the kernel and this time it worked great, nice ROM. Only problem is I need TUN support to get my vpn working and the included CM9 kernel doesnt seem to have this enabled.
Any other kernels i can try with CM9?

as far as i read from the forum, Ironkenel is great for performance however many other problems like faster battery drain,, so i would stick to the standard kernel and wait for the features to be implemented... at the end, the kernel is still in a relatively early stage and i am happy with the stability we could get so far.

yes it is known that the video recorder does not work.
about the headset button,, i didnt tried, don't like the LG headset quality anyway
I can`t post in dev forum, so I post here.
I miss the Galaxy Nexus bootanimation, and circle battery mod doesn't work in rc4/rc5, so here it is,
Galaxy Nexus bootanimation and circle battery mod for rc5 (I don`t know if it works on rc4)
install with CWM

Thank you for the post.
My last installation was RC3 and there the boot animation worked.
bootanimation dosen`t work since RC4, and circle battery too, I think
@hei1125
In german forum android-hilfe.de
I offer a little Mod for CM9, it changes the color of pressed buttons from orange to ICS/CM9 blue,and the battery icons.
Since I use your rom, the mod works in your rom too So the question is, is there a difference between framework-res.apk and systemui.apk in RC4 and RC5
I have gone back to cm7 as I need certain features for daily driving but the Nova rom has me itching for LG to release their update ASAP and look forward to all the custom roms to follow. XDA developers rock!

[Q] ICS nyx RC5.0 (ICSGS) - Camera, Backup&Restore

Hi,
I would post this in the Nyx thread but I'm new so I'm not alowed
Anyway, I was installing nyx rc5.0 yesterday coming from CM7.2.
Installation went smooth!!! really impressive but there are 2 issues I wonder is someone can clear:
1) Camera - I was quite surprised to see there is no scene mode in the camera and almost no settings. Is this a problem in flashing or just the way it is?
I was sure it's supported as its not mentioned anymore in the Release notes.
(Just "Camera works")
2) Backup&Restore - I couldn't restore my Wifi Passwords, etc. from the google servers. The option of backup my account is grayed out and also written "Backing up to debug-only private cache". It is a known issue?
Thanks,

cm cameras have always been a bit down on samsung as they wouldnt release source from what i remember, and data restore from sammy roms to cm roms generally doesnt work, and that includes apps data on the whole also
and i didnt read properly!...but im guessing same applies going from cm7 to cm9 based rom due to framework differences

Thanks. BTW, hows the Slim ICS working for you on the Samsung GT-I9000?
How's the camera app there?
Anyway, I don't use the camera so often as its not that great in this phone anyway.
The rest so far feels quite good in nyx RC5.0. Too early to mention I guess but battery consumption feels a bit high at the moment.

WiFi Drain Battery
Hi, im usin the Nightly 10132014, when Turrn on the wifi, drain a lot of battery, this fixed on the new Nightly?
boost p970
for the ones that do not have the same speed like before, there are some things, everybody should consider:
1. go into recovery and delete "dalvik cache", "cache" and "battery stats" from time to time.
2. use fstrim
3. delete cache under ->settings->storage
4. delete all temorary apps -> press and hold home ->than delete all the running apps
5. set animation(s) at 0.5x
now you should feel a speed improvement.

Well, it seems that is not a priority for the devs, but they will do it (I believe on it)
A note for them:
You are making a fantastic job with your ROM for our Black, but as for usability a few notes.
- FM radio (no chance, that's acceptable, for me )
- GPS (come on, we had nice GPS with some JellyBean ROM's, Mackay ROM for ex. Thats indispensable for most users, and maybe not hard to fix as other things).
- Bluetooth (you have almost made the job, but bluetooth streaming has still problems, the music doesn't play flawless, impossible to listen a music).
For me, there are 2 things that keeping me out of this ROM (GPS and Bluetooth). But I'll keep trying every week.
Thanks, and i hope this could be helpfull for everyone.

changelogs and daily builds
I wanted to know the differences between daily builds but can't read changelogs... i'm on windows...
Is there a difference between daily builds or are they automatically created...
Should i apply updates daily?
And how can i read changelogs on windows?
Why after so much development is still in nightly and not in beta or stable form???
wow
Installed today, wow!!!
I got back my Optimus Black from the drawer and it came back to life.
I don't care if there are some minor bugs/flaws/problems...

GPS has always been causing problems on the p970. It was crap on stock and custom roms so don't get your hopes up on that one. I don't think that they will bother to try and make it work.

Oh.. Thanks. Then i keep on waiting for another OB like phone. I can't go back to ICS.. So far none of the companies made a similar phone. They either make giant phones or ugly phones ...etc. Z3 compact was a thrill when i first read about it. Amazing phone but it has a very serious problem. It can't be rooted unless bootloader unlocked. With cause phone to lose very important features....
Hello,
What is the minimum TWRP or CWM version to install to be able to flash this ROM?
Thx

Camera problem
It is the best ROM I have try for my P970 so far, everything work, except for the camera.
When I take a picture, the backgroud of the camera stay stock with the last picture I take. To be able to take another one, I need to close and open again the app.
Also, when I try to record, all my video have the extension .MP4.TMP and I'm unable to read it.
I try Google Camera and I got the same picture problem.
I use the nameless version : 4.4.4-20141215-p970

Compass not working

I have flashed some ROM as the picture shows but I don't have a stable compass working now. In apps such as Ingress and Gmaps I only got 2 pointable directions, like a very bad approximation. Some simple compass apps works normally, but the detailed ones are "buggy" as well. I tried calibrating gps and posted about in in ROM thread. Do u guys have any recommendation? Thanks in advance from Brazil!

Which is the most lightweight and stable ROM?

Hi there!
I just started working as Uber driver and tried to use Galaxy S Advance to work. In the beggining it seemed to be working (stock rom) but when Uber requests me the app changes the screen to the request screen expecting my action to accept the request. At this moment I can note that this screen takes so long to change that sometimes I have no time to accept the request.
The things I use to work are:
- Waze
- phone call
- keyboard (to talk with clients)
- GPS
- Uber app
- Mobile data (internet)
- Sound
- Multitask (to change between Waze and Uber apps)
So since some roms has bugs and others are not stable, in your opinion, which rom would fit better in this case?
THANKSSSSSS :fingers-crossed:

I saw some people talking about this ROM, that is stable and lightweight BUT.... i have tried to install it twice (the new version - old version the Laggera link file is not working) and for the god sake mobile data doesn't work! -_- everything works except that (which is important).
Any help or other rom?
And... somebody has the old version to upload?
Thanks!
