[Q] MIUI 1.8.5 vs 1.8.26 - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Ok so ive been searching and searching and i can't find anyone else who has asked this, usually i dont post on this account because i dont need to, my actual account is only for development which i kinda have abandoned for a while and i need help.
What is the difference of MIUI 1.8.5 and 1.8.26?
i understand its the first without a cm7 kernel and all but otherwise is it the same? Ive been reading so many peoples problems with that kernel and i dont really want to go to that and just regret it and flash 1.8.5 again and spend all that time redoing everything. 1.8.5 was unofficial so there is no change log or anything from what ive found,so is 1.8.26 just 1.8.5 but for a different kernel? please help if you know, thanks .

Here's the full changelog:
http://forums.miui.us/content.php?102-MIUI-1.8.26-Preview-Changelog
I've noticed that .26 fixed several bugs i had in .5 (Music fc'ing from lockscreen, vibrate not working)

If you don't like the kernal then flash a new one

[Q] GB 2.3.4 GTalk w/video & voice keeps force closing in CM7

I tried to get GTalk with voice and video working using the method in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062980
After following the directions and opening GTalk I see the video icon in Gtalk, but when I press it I get a FC.
If I initiate a video or voice call from my PC to the phone, the phone will show a GTalk FC.
I'm tried it with Tiamat 3.3.7 SBC and Savagedzen 2.1.0 BFS kernels with the same results. (I'm using CM 7.0.2.1)
I also tried changing the permission of the Talk.apk to RWX.
I know i'm close, I'm looking for any additional info. anyone who has this working with CM7 can give me
I don't have a particular fix for this, but thought i'd give a heads up that i just flashed the latest CM7 Nightly, which brings the phone up to 2.3.4.
I flashed the latest gApps and the GTalk with video is working PERFECTLY.
I guess what i'm trying to say is that if you are willing to move to Nightlies, it would work for you with a lot less effort.

Thanks for the info. I may give it a try.
Two questions;
1) Where are you getting gapps specifically for CM7 builds? I collected so many different GB gapps over the last two days that I've forgotten which version goes with which ROM.
2) Which kernel are you using with that nightly build? I was considering trying Tiamat 4.* (sic) with CM7.
There are two different links. Have you tried the one labeled "Test" yet? And I am having the same problem on Evervolv Wimacs b6.

1. Here's the most recent gApps that i used:

2. I use the stock CM kernel that comes with flashing there ROM. they put a lot of time and effort into it and i think it is underrated. It does me good, personally.
Thanks for the link. I'll have to give it another try.
EDIT: Flashed CM7-64 with the latest gapps (20110504, I think) and GTalk is working.
Thanks bweisholtz.

1.5.6.1 is the latest...for the incredible for other devices i think its 1.5.13
Where can I find the latest release? I've looked into the MIUI thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=939606) but wasn't able to find it. Every since the split, it's been harder to find the latest release of MIUI for the Inc.
Thanks.
EDIT: I found the latest release: http://forums.miui.us/showthread.ph...(Gapps-2.3.4-deodexed-CM-Kernel)-Updated-5-07
http://forums.miui.us/showthread.ph...(Gapps-2.3.4-deodexed-CM-Kernel)-Updated-5-07
looks like its updated to 1.5.6.1
gonna check it out myself, i dont believe ill make the jump from CM7 tho
1.5.6.1 is just a full rom version of 1.5.6, the first 1.5.6 build was a flash over.
1.5.6.1 shows as 1.5.6 in about phone.
1.5.13 is the latest but the links down go to miui.us
After trying to find the latest version I just gave up... like "fp99" said is hard to find it.. so now im in Warm z rom... for a minute....
Newest release is found at miui.us.
1.5.13 breaks the camera for me though, and the last release broke Google Voice. MIUI is too buggy for me lately so I'm trying out a Sense 2.0 rom.
and now I'm seeing a release it out again on MIUI-DEV, which had all but shut down for the past few weeks. Anyone care to comment on MIUI-DEV vs MIUI.US?? I don't care to hear about the riff that occurred between them, but I care mostly about comments on the relative skills of the developers on either side. I'm not sure which to download and test (probably end up trying them both anyway )

Both ports are made by different devs and the one on miui.us seems more complete since the one porting on miui-dev is new.

Diferences between CM7 RC1 v1 and v2

I just see there is v2 version. I dont see changelog anywhere so could somebody tell me please?
i really wanna know that too, anyone?
I haven't installed either, I'm still on RC0, but I've been following the development thread, and I read that rc2 has a different kernel (up to rc1 the kernel had been the same) Different kernels mean different drivers, and some people were complaining about the new wifi drivers. But other than that rc2 seemed mor stable. Any way, since neither fixes the camera yet, I've decided to stay with rc1, that I found really stable.

I did not ask for difference between RC0 and RC1.
I am interested in difference between two different versions of RC1. There is v1 and latest v2. I cannot find anywhere changelog between those two.

Greetings, Thanks & MIUI 1.8.5 Help!

Hey guys,
First of all I wanna thank everyone for making this such an awesome forum as I learned how to root & even flash my Defy with the tutorials in the Development forum.
Another thing I wanted to bring up was the awesome MIUI droid. I recently just upgraded to the 1.8.5 version. I liked it however I still noticed the problem with haptics feedback especially when typing. Does anyone know any solutions?
You mean the absence of haptic feedback when typing? This is a MIUI bug and as far as I'm concerned there's still no solution to it.
@rafaccb
Thanks for the info! Hope they sort that out real soon coz MIUI is a really sweet ROM.
Edit - One more question, I've tried flashing the latest CM7 nightly build but somehow it won't boot. I've followed the instructions thoroughly & it still won't work. Why is this?
Hmm, not sure, haven't messed much with CM7, but make sure to wipe data and cache before flashing between MIUI and CM7.
try with htc keyboard or swype and enable haptic in their settings, in my defy with miui.us 1.8.5 works
I use Swiftkey and get haptic
Hi
What is difference between [ROM] Motorola Defy MIUI.us Presents MIUI 1.8.5 Pure English [AOSP] and [ROM]MIUIandroid Defy 1.8.5 - English - Updated 2.3.5/CM7 Defy Merge ?
Hey guys,
Thanks for the help & advice. But I managed to get on one of the nightlies of CM7 so I'm currently using that. Maybe when there's a more stable version of MIUI I'll switch to that.
@PK-motorsport
From what I know, the difference is just that on the Pure English version you don't have to flash the language pack whereas the Merged version requires a language pack as it is originally in Chinese. However, I did notice some missing features in the Pure English version.

ICS on telus sgh-t959d

If you are looking for a rom/kernel for the Telus SGH-t959d try cyanogen 9 build 16 and semaphore kernel(0.9.1)-working 99.5%!!! The only thing that is not 100% is the battery drain-I only get about 1 1/2 days max-with darkys rom I got 2 days plus no problem.
No home or back button issues, all apps restored with Titanium without issues....
Have Fun!
link to ICS CM9 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363593
link to Semaphore http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468795
updated to build 17 without semaphore kernel-battery so far seems longer, but I did have 1 random reboot though.

Now have drZMIUI ICS with semaphore 090 kernel-updated to 095b- working pretty good at this time-couple of force closes nothing major, only thing that seems to keep re-occurring is the settings/superuser permissions sometimes get reset.+Don't use deep idle-keeps locking up phone.
Gonna keep trying this one and CM9 for next couple of months to see what is the best

Hi, can I have a kind of status of your usage?
IS the CM rom better than the MIUI one?
I'm currently using glitch kernel with miui 2.3rom and I have a huge problem of signals.
I would really like to upgrade my phone with another kernel and rom, but I want to be sure that it work before.
Thanks for your answer.

I finally I did it.
Installed a stable version(not nightly) of cyanogen (i9000) and installed semaphore 1.3.0
Work fine for now... will give an update status soon.
By the way I followed that tutorial to flash perfectly my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494493
Thanks.
