Root Miui Problem Sorted. Opefully!

Oooh hang on, let me remove that. :o

I don't really know what Radio Interface Layer was supposed to to but it never did it. The phone running Miui and Cyanogen would have brilliant signal for 3 or 4 minutes and then lose it completely. Interestingly I found that it doeseney actually live on the radio, its a layer and lives in one of the caches, a full wipe and it was gone.
 
I've been using the Coutts kernel and find it fine, battery life is OK and I actually hammered the phone over the weekend due to lots of rail travel so was on Angry Birds a lot...battery didn't die but was down to 4% after 22hrs and had about 4hrs of Angry Birds in that time as well as the normal apps syncing every hour and a good few phone calls.

In the mood to try another kernel but don't know which to go for

what you saying? you dont have as signal problem anymore or you do?
f you do still have issues try and find the corresponding ril for your radio version and flash it (you may need to remove signature verification)

i find the battery life on coutts about the same as vokernel however i find vorkernel a lot more responsive
Ive not tried his newest ones but i keep going back to his xmas wifi fix edition as its stable as hell and fast.

im just testing this 6.1se1 havs bfs axi 124 min kernel with profiles
the last one failed me on 6.1.1 but SE is already showing good potential

it does seem to deep sleep after 20mins on screen off/lock takes a while to come back so i still think this will keep giving me issues after long period of music while locked

time will tell
 
As I don't use my phone for a lot more than email/FB/Twitter needing to OC/UV/Whatever isn't important - I just want it to be usable. End of the day it is just a phone and the bulk of my Internet usage is still on my laptop. So long as the phone's battery lasts a day then I'm happy :D

Your gonna have to give me that again in English. First of all I tried a RIL a while back which I think was generic and it didn't work. Then I found a RIL for my radio version .27 (or at least that's what the file name suggested), but it was still no different. I notice EddyOS is using it now and I haven't heard him report any issues!

I lose signal after say 5 mins and the only way to get it back is to reboot......every 5 mins!
 
Yeah, seems to be working OK. I write it into the ROM before flashing to save on something else to flash seperately. My setup at the mo has me on 80% since 7:20 this morning but as I'm in work I've not been using the phone a lot bar some AB on my break(s)

FB/Twitter/weather updating every hour, had about 20 emails come in too

you only had this problem on emiui or on Cyanogen as well ?

if so then your provider/area might not like that radio version

im on the same version as Eddy
I had a problem with miui wifi with this radio till i flashed the RIL and then all was fine

yeah i know, thing is though: i notice the responsiveness in day to day use especially with the fancy desktop scrolling anims and folders. opening of certain apps etc
even clocked down to 854 on a battery saving profile (under 40%) it still feels quicker than coutts
 
I'm on Orange, and I had the same problem with both Roms. What are the benefits of a working RIL exactly? Before I go flashing radio's.

Got a link, fancy trying it out. My battery saving kicks in on 20% (default)

It's the Radio Interface Layer so basically links the radio to the software/hardware correctly I imagine. Don't know the whole ins and outs but think that's it in a nutshell

thats basically it but he said flashing the RIL didnt help so it could be the radio hes on
might be worth finding out what the stock radio for orange 2.2 is and then finding it on xda devs (radio thread) and = flashing that (check md5 of course)

I am reticent to flash just for the sake of it, but if Ratstaman is right, and the local cellular doesn't like my radio version, I could be getting better performance/battery rolling back an older radio version? Is that what your statemant implies?

I think I might go to Cyanogen Nightlies anyway now, I don't like the way that Rusky wipes his nose, I didn't think that I'd get tired of it so fast but as soon as I got the rom working I knew I wouldn't be using it long.

EDIT: OK Rastaman I'll save that for the hours of darkness. I'll get back with more, much later.
 
Tried that kernel, try and scroll through Twitter and it keeps reloading the app so back to Coutts I go
 
lol none of us work with the kernels others advise

then again i dont use twitter anymore

what twitter app you using, ill test it later in the week
did you use BFS or CFS?
 
EddyOS said:
Does seem that way!! Just actually realised I've been using the CFS one so actually now on the BFS one as per my signature so will see how I get on
Click to expand...

i found coutts cfs to be better than his bfs version, just the voltages were not stable enough for my overclock and i found it laggy in places
still i found it better than the bfs

when mentioning bfs or cfs i was talking about vork xmas
 
for what its worth, flashed Eviollet 6.1se HAVS-BFS-AXI 128. Screen off 128-245.
Battery is lasting way longer, than stock defrost 6.1 kernel. Currently OC'd to 1075mhz and has been stable and responsive all day.
Battery still on 29%, off charge this morning at 6am, 45mins music, prob about an hour and half browsing, email syncing hourly.
doing OK for me atm.

Well maybe I'll be the exception - vork xmas is working fine for me so far. Does seem to wake a bit quicker, but then I was using smartass with the DF kernels, which isn't noted for wake-up speed (but I generally like in use).

Mobile network not too impressive this evening, but most likely that's just Orange around rush hour rather than the kernel.
