hey all perhaps I can get some guidance
I've been trying to install the newest MIUI but when I try to flash it this error shows up.

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "triumph" || Getprop ("ro.build.product") == "triumph"
E :error in /sdcard/download/miuiandroid-triumph_1.11.3-110911-3.zip
(status 7)
installation aborted.
E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
I can't see any problems with my sd card and cyanogen is running ok with no errors
I was thinking a wipe will cure this but I have one stupid question first...if I do a wipe it leaves my nandroid backup alone right?

You're not using the right version of CWM. Read the first post under the "Downloads" section.

Isaac....

hmmm I thought the CWM I was using (yours if my memory serves

) was good for miui and cyanogen.(thought I remember reading that over at triumph hacks but obviously I was wrong) can the CWM you need for miui be used for cyanogen mod too?
is it possible to have more than one version of CWM on a phone at once? how likely am I to bork things by changing versions of CWM?
thanks a million dude

Yeah, as long as you're using a version 4.0.1.5 and above, you can use it to install any current ROM out there (e.g. CM7, MIUI, etc.)

Given the way that we (Triumph users) have to install CWM, it isn't possible to have 2 installed at the same time. The reason why I assumed you had the wrong version installed (basically, 4.0.0.9), is because of this error:

Code:

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "triumph" ||  Getprop ("ro.build.product") == "triumph"

What's happening is CWM checks to make sure that package you're trying to install was meant for the Triumph. Obviously, since you got this with the error:

Code:

E :error in /sdcard/download[B]/miuiandroid-triumph_1.11.3-110911-3.zip[/B]

You're not trying to install anything strange. That's a good thing! The package is fine.

Now, The only reason other reason I can think of as to why you're getting an error is because you're using a CWM built for a different phone. CWM 4.0.0.9 was originally intended for the FB0 variants. That phone is no different than ours, but the name it checks for ("FB0") will cause the installation to error out like it's doing for you.

There isn't any reason to worry about changing CWM versions out. As long as you're using one built specifically for our device, you should be fine.

How do you know all of this stuff? I know I can use Google, but I would love if you could give some advice on where to get started with Android (ROM) development. I know my way around computers and the terminal pretty well now, but don't know any languages (except a small amount of C++ and Cocoa, along with a small amount of HTML5 and CSS3) .

I'm sure there are others like me with moderate computer experience just don't know where to get started.

Is there anyway to get rid of the setting where it requires wifi to download bigger files?

melissapugs · Nov 26, 2011

Just wanted to see if there are any plans to have MIUI 1.11.25: changes in this version allow for weather and a few other new things on the lockscreen :link. Didn't want to start a new lockscreen without knowing

Thanks!

So. Just kinda was messing around and have had problems with this since early miui, but not on CM7.

MMS, just long/over the limit texts I believe, I cannot send to myself, or to others, or recieve as well. But on CM7 I get prompted every time to recieve and my mms sends without flaw. Both sent from the same area (my condo) with 3-4 bars of 3G coverage.

So what can I do to crack this one down? Because I do want my MMS working as I can't really split texts like I can in CM7 for long over drafted texts. (Girlfriend. =/ )

I believe there is an option in the message settings to auto split long text messages. Or you can you use another SMS app that will do that automatically, I use Go SMS. I think I remember Isaac saying that it is a problem with MIUI that cannot be fixed without the miui source code .

OK so I downloaded the latest recovery..your right I was using the outdated one and followed the directions over at Kyle's tech desk (Motorola triumph hacks) to replace the recovery image and now it wont boot into recovery it hangs at the boot logo any ideas?
the phone boots but not having a recovery scares the hell out of me

I'm not sure what those directions that you mention are but are they similar to these?

http://androidforums.com/triumph-all-things-root/421674-clockworkmod-recovery-motorola-triumph.html

If not, follow these instructions to get the correct recovery and install it on your phone.

I'm scared very scared

Yeah it auto splits but won't send em if the message is long enough to need splitting

zaphodbblx · Nov 26, 2011

uPDATE!
Isaac and everyone.
I hate to admit it but windows saved the day!
went to my mother in laws and downloaded the file, zipped the recovery into mobile/image and all is well.
my initial problem was not paying attention to THE INSTRUCTIONS for the CWM update because the controls are somewhat different (quick press on power is NOT "enter")
hate to do the noob thing AGAIN but such is life....
Id still like to know if any one out there can figure out why Linux switched the file permissions to "read only"

Isaac,
so I got the files and followed the instructions right to the letter but now the phone wont go into recovery. so i went to try and replace the file but now it says the file is read only and it wont let me replace it.
The phone boots normally but now I don't have recovery and I am FREAKING!
I'm running Linux so that may be one of the problems but I got clockwork installed initially but the upgrade to the latest triumph version went wacky so I am basically stuck

You're saying that the recovery.img file in the MOBILE drive is set as read-only? You should still be able to delete it... and then after you delete it, you can then copy over the recovery file again.

couldn't do it from Linux anyhow...worked fine from windows. :mad:

That's good. So everything's working now?

Edit: Just saw your update on your previous post.

thank god for NANDROID
I cant easily get into CWM now because the phone dosnt want to boot into CWM recovery..I was finally able to get it to work! (yay for me)
Unfortunately I had to do a wipe to get MIUI to run without force quitting every 3 seconds and that's way too much work!
do you think it would work with just wiping the dalvik cashe?

boot into the bootloader and see if you have a recovery.img on the phone...

or battery pull and try again

cubecube · Nov 26, 2011

How do I uninstall some of the pre-installed apps? Most of them do not have an UNINSTALL option.

Ziggy thanks!

it seems OK now I guess its just really fussy on the key sequence. I think I got lazy having a "boot into recovery' option on CWM
is there a way to boot into recovery in MIUI without going to the 3 key press?

xthedakmanx · Nov 26, 2011

Hm, I noticed something today, and was wondering if it was just me.

Well, what happened was my battery got low, and it turned it off. Well, seeing what would happen if I turned it back on...it worked....kinda
It went to the miui logo, and looped on it until the battery was fully drained.

Is this normal?

Uh, what pre-installed apps? I haven't included anything besides the Weather and News app (because it was necessary for build 1.11.25). Everything in this port is stock MIUI. If anything, I removed apps that you would normally find in MIUIAndroid or MIUIus ports.

If you still want to delete apps use Titanium Backup.
