I was wondering if anyone else was having any fc's when trying to use setCPU? whenever i try to change the speed it force closes. ALso the alarm clock app by pluto, alarm clock plus V2, and the alarm clock xtreme fc's when trying to set the time for the alarm. I tried running permissions in RM but that didnt work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I had FC w/ setCPU until I uninstalled it and reinstalled. I've been working on some custom icons and copied setCPU.apk over in an update.zip. Once I reinstalled it from the Market it worked fine.

I've been trying to make a theme for my miui for a while and was really overcomplicating the whole process. If all you want is a bunch of custom icons you just need to edit the 'drawable-hdpi-finger-v4' from the framework and the '/data/system/customized_icons_1' folders. Then have your update.zip copy the new framework.apk and custom icons folder. It should be much easier to theme than standard ROMS because you never have to mess with the installation apk if you don't want to.

I think that is how it works anyway. I am known for talking out of my arse so the above paragraph could be total bs. Someone please tell me if it is because I'm basing my work on that theory.

Your FC's of SetCPU was probably because you included it in a flash-able .zip file. Certain apps don't install well through this method. For instance Google Earth, if you include the .apk in a flashable .zip file, it'll FC every single time you try to run it, because it doesn't copy over the .lib files it needs to "/data/data/com.google.earth/lib/". The same thing was probably happening to SetCPU in your case, most likely it didn't copy over the lib files it needs to run into your "/data/data/what-ever-setcpu-folder/lib".

As for custom icons,"data/system/customized_icons_1/" will be where you'll customize almost every icon, except for a few that need to be replaced in the framework-res.apk. In the case of framework-res.apk, it's much easier to "adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk", edit what you need/want to, and then push the framework-res.apk back while in recovery mode (In recovery, mount system, "adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/", and then you are done. No need to edit a flash-able .zip and flash it. I only use that method before flashing an update to a ROM. I crack it open, edit the files that I need to edit beforehand, than flash the edited ROM.

This is actually the same method for any Custom ROM; there is no difference to theme MIUI over any other ROM.

Yea, I noticed this with SetCPU, Wired Tether, and Wireless Tether. These apps do not like being "pushed" to a directory. They have to be installed first, and then new versions can be successfully "pushed" thereafter.

my wifi drops in and out, whats the best 1000mhz kernel to use?
Thanks

Alternatively, you can crack them open and extract the lib files and push those too. That's what I do when I push certain apps to system without having installed them first (I do this with Google Earth mainly).

The only thing I have left to figure out anymore (for my particular tastes/install) is how to get the Pandora widget to go all the way across the screen with an incognito style background. Seems as no matter what I do, it doesn't go all the way to the corners of the screen, no matter how long the .9.png file seems to be.

Hell, I've even managed to figure out how to re-sign the pandora .apk after theme'ing it to get it to install normally in the data partition, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the widget background to go from corner to corner.

:wacko:

Thanks Zero. I'd like to be able to release a theme so I'm trying to follow Zen's guide to theming miui.

I have followed your example in the past to make personal themes but I always edited the application apk's. I'd never come across the 'customized_icons' folder in other roms so I went after the icons in the drawable folders. That's the big difference with this rom compared to others isn't it?

I suggest you start doing some research there bud. There is no such thing as best kernel, period. You need to read up and try different kernels and find the one that best works for you or best suits your needs/wants.

lol, I'm familiar with everything on this site but my question is to the people who used a kernel that provided them with great WiFi results thank you

Oh, I totally misunderstood your previous post. In that sense, yes, MIUI is much easier to theme the icons than any other ROM out there right now. But it's a trade off though. If you're theme'ing a ROM and theme'ing the apps; then you most likely are already replacing .png's in those folders. In any case, as a themer, you should replace the icons within the apps themselves, and leave the customized_icons_1 folder method to the end user. This way you get the desired theme and still give the end user enough flexibility to change icons as they see fit, or revert if it didn't work/look the way they wanted it to or thought it would.

The only reason a kernel would change your WiFi is if the kernel Dev included a different WiFi driver/module. In which case, you should follow the Devs recommendation on install method or ROM they released that specific kernel for.

I've tried many different ROM's and many different kernels, and have never had a problem with WiFi. So I'm inclined to believe it might be a incorrect install method, a corrupt download/install, or a misbehaving router (this sometimes happens to me, but I just power cycle the router and it fixes itself).

All were installed through the market.......

I was wondering if anyone else was having any fc's when trying to use setCPU? whenever i try to change the speed it force closes. ALso the alarm clock app by pluto, alarm clock plus V2, and the alarm clock xtreme fc's when trying to set the time for the alarm. I tried running permissions in RM but that didnt work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How did those apps get installed on the rom? Backup/restore program, through the market or manual install?

You're the first to report having trouble with apps FC. You may need to wipe data/factory reset and flash the rom again.

i may be mistaken but i believe i've heard the developers say that things like this are tied in with the framework... sooooo most likely no.

but on the other hand, the lockscreen is one of the most prominent features of miui and will probably go through endless more evolutions in the future. if you don't like it now, wait a week.
