Holy crap, fully functional 3g AND mms? I might just have to give this one a shot today..

Man I just started trying out MIUI for my phone haha, if this has solid 3G connection I might have to come back :(

Oh my god this ROM runs AMAZING!

So So fast.

No toggle dance. Instant 3g/WiFi

No camera, but its being worked on.

and it runs like a cat on fire.
 
All I can say is wow. 3g and wifi work 100% mms is working. Super lightning fast. Only thing I'm noticing is that for me, the physical buttons still light up when I press the screen.

So.
  • backup
  • wipe system/data/cache
  • flash alpha9
  • flash alpha9 powerkey fix
  • flash 3/17 gapps
  • advanced restore data
Initial thoughts & observations:
Wifi worked straight out of the box, though didn't give me blue bars. Turned wifi off, 3G connected immediately, again without blue indicator bars. Looks like the Toggle Dance may finally be obsolete.

Phone froze when I went to "Accounts & sync" to add my Google account. (The "one time" setup didn't run.) Seems to be because I flashed gapps before restoring data; flashing gapps again fixed that right up. (The "one time" didn't run, but I was able to add my account.)

Huh. Blue bars are back after gapps flash/reboot. Toggles seem to be working. GPS seems pretty speedy. 3G apparently still sometimes needs a toggle, but not the full Toggle Dance to get going when wifi is disabled.

Looking forward to a day's use with this ROM so it can get settled in. I really hope the clock issues are fixed; having the clock decide that it just wasn't going to update once the phone's screen was off for ten or fifteen minutes was a real pain in the arse.

Further observations:
Homescreen shortcuts for several installed apps (Maps, Trillian, Wikidroid) are displaying default Android icon instead of their respective icons; apps run just fine despite this. Running apps or rebooting phone doesn't change behavior; shortcuts must be removed from homescreen and re-added.

Google Play Music completely unwilling to even try playing songs on 3G. Attempts make app FC.

3G stays connected, but seems slow as Christmas. Streaming music still largely a fool's errand, even without 3G disconnections. Cache that music, kids.

Kraven: thanks for fixing e2fsck, I'll be updating very soon, can't wait :-)
 
Try turning off that line in the build.prop and see how data behavior is. I think we don't need it, but I'll leave it on if it's working. I'll look at adding 3g scripts to see if speed helps or not.

And I think I need to turn off sprint streaming proxies for hq vids to be smoother

I have Alpha 9 installed, but for some reason charging over USB to computer doesn't appear to be working. Is it indeed charging (and not showing because of battery stats) or not? Any ideas?

Update:The phone does charge, just the battery icon doesn't alert you that it is indeed charging.

clock still hangs but everything else iv tried works great! able to stream Pandora wifi and 3g. this rom is so snappy with CPU at standard settings
 
Re: [WIP][ROM]COLD AS ICE-CM9 Sprint LS670 4/5 ZVD basesband Alph

I'll make the alpha8 boot.img available to fix the battery status. It will be later in the day.

Edit: The charger icon changed for me, try changing the settings/system/status bar/battery status style to percentage and change back to icon.

For some reason, hitting the power button in A9 doesn't turn off the screen - it instead selects the first item on the screen, much like the D-pad up activity the home button used to do. Any thoughts? Everything else is awesome - 3g is perfect, speed is great, camera still doesn't work but no huge issues otherwise.
 
Re: [WIP][ROM]COLD AS ICE-CM9 Sprint LS670 4/5 ZVD basesband Alph

I think alpha 10 should be beta 1!
