Root [rom] miui4dx 1.8.19[updated 8/23/2011]

What about your keyboard? Massive text? Im going to snag the LatinIME.apk from CM7, my grandmother wouldn't have a problem reading the text on that thing.

Mine is good but I only use swype, haven't looked at the GB keyboard.


I fixed the FC in the theme manager by deleting data for the "Theme" application in the app manager.

All I had to do was go into the application manager and clear data for the "Themes" application.

Also, I had problems with a few lockscreen themes, I just removed them from the theme manager (preview > trash icon) and then put them back on my SD and applied and it worked great.

Sadly after I got that working other things just wouldn't. :(

like what?

Lockscreen was so laggy I couldn't unlock my phone, rebooting caused the screen to be black with a white square in the corner until I hit home 2x and then the lockscreen would come up. WiFi would not allow me to get to the internet. A few other things I can't think of right now so I wiped data/cache and booted back up.

Restored settings from the miui backup program and it set my keyboard to swype which wasn't installed yet so I couldn't log in to my acct, couldn't dl TiB to restore, and opening the settings menu caused FCs. So another data/cache wipe and reboot. Installed RM and TiBu.... restored all my apps, did a restore of the settings for MIUI and got most things working except.....

FTP server still doesn't work from file manager (SwiFTP also doesn't work from that market) even though it says it is started the alogcat says the service is started and I can't change any settings without rebooting.

I might go back to it in the morning when I have some free time but work just called so I have to have my phone available.

that sucks. i've not had really any of those issues.
but ever since the 1st release, + patch, when i reboot i have the blackk screen with white box. i figured that was normal?
did you not have that on the last release?

Nope, I didn't have it on the last release. Can you use the wifi ftp in file manager?

I was thinking of that too but I have a "good" backup of MIUI on my card. I'm back on CM7 for tonight but I will probably go to MIUI and flash the update again in the morning to see how it goes.
