[Q] Official MIUI - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so ive pm'd TDJ about this issue and since i cannot post on the actual thread yet, i thought id try here. he said he has seen the problem but has not experienced it himself therefore he cannot assess the situation i think. anywho, ive been using this rom for about a week and what ive been experiencing is something with the sms inbox and sms popup. this is what i mean
so this is how it looks like if i go into my message inbox:
friend 1:
friend 2:
friend 2:
friend 3:
friend 4:
now if i click the first duplicate it will show our conversation
friend 2:
me:
friend 2:
me:
etc
if i click the second duplicate it'll just show my friend's responses and whatever i decided to text through my message inbox
me:
friend 2:
friend 2:
friend 2:
friend 2:
TDJ said i should add the 1 before the phone numbers to see if that works but all my contacts on google have the 1 and even hyphens. is anyone else experiencing this?
ALSO! so i did a factory reset on this rom and before i did it i was able to use a custom sound for my boot load (using the PSX boot load + PSX mp3 i ripped from youtube = epic win) now when i tried to select it again after the reset, nada. it said "failed to select sound" or something like that. should i reflash the rom?

Did you use the -wipe flag before flashing? Try that and flash again. I've had better experiences with adding the flag

I'll give it a shot! All I do is add that flag and still flash normally??

Added the flag and flashed. We'll see what happens
Update: the flag worked. Not seeing duplicate threads for a contact. Thanks!
Update: I lied.. one contact was duplicate.. fail

My problem wasn't having duplicate contacts in my address book but having duplicate contacts display in my SMS inbox when I decided to respond through the popup. I fixed the problem simply by turning off the "new message pop-UPS" feature although I would still love to use it. *le sigh*

Facebook App Problems

So I let my little brother sign into the Facebook app on my phone and thus the problems. I signed him out and logged in with my stuff, but I'm still getting updates in my notification bar from his account and when I click them, it just takes me to the app with my account logged in and doesn't show me anything new. I've tried clearing out the app data and even uninstalling/reinstalling the Facebook app to my phone with the same results. Anyone else had the same or similar problem, or have any suggestions about how to fix it?
Bump as I've not managed to get this fixed. Hopefully will get some more eyes on.

I dunno Don. That's an odd one. If you've cleared the data it should have done the trick. Maybe something gets stored to the sdcard. I know that during the installation a notification gets stored there. I wonder...
That's kind of on the lines of what I was thinking too but I haven't been able to find anything on there that seems linked besides the sound. I'm going to keep working at it and I'll post any progress I make here for future reference.

Did you follow all of the instructions correctly?
Look In OP in this thread. Pick a camera link. Now once you've done so:
1) Download apk to sd card
2) Use Root Explorer and copy it to system\app
3) Rename existing HTCCamera.apk to HTCCamera.bak
4) Rename the new camera to HTCCamera.apk
5) Long press on new HTCCamera.apk and click permissions
6) Set permissions to Owner RW/Group R/Others R
7) Reboot!
8) Head to settings/applications and clear data from camera (this will fix FFC FC)
As far as widgetsoid, I cannot help you. But there are Quick settings in the notifications bar. Save your phone some space, and delete Widgetsoid.
I got widgetsoid working and the camera I am using is the one that comes with the ROM I dowloaded another but turning off wide screen made it work but mirror is unable to notice it so my best course of action is switch camera's

I had the issue you have to go into settings and actually enable it. Crazy right?
I'm having an issue with Messages forcing close
as well as the phone being overall slow as hell. I'm going to uninstall some thigns to see if maybe that could be the case.. Put literally.. Preview 5, without the toolkit seemed to treat me a lil bit better.
I have not, but I will try now.

Go to your Stock sms and disable its notifications through the settings menu.

Need help with daughters phone please

Don't come on this section much, I'm a captivate guy. But my daughter has a completely stock desire z on bells network.
What is happening with her phone is regularly she will have to do a reboot, or sometimes even a battery pull because she will add some songs, or pictures and sometimes even SMS messages and she knows they're there but they won't show until the reboot. In the case of gosms, she gets the notification icon on the display up top, and when she clicks it, the messaging app is empty, until the reboot?! The songs and pics are the same thing, she knows they're there, and they show, but not until a reboot. Hope i've given enough details. As I said, stock rom, everything. Thanks in advance.

It's probably an effect of a known bug with refreshing cache for files on SD card. Try running this instead of reboot:
SDRescan

Though not sure what the heck is going on with her messaging... First time I hear about that. Maybe corrupted internal memory card?
thanks given, I'll give it a try.
Sounds like an sd card issue going on here. That app should help, but I don't know why it is affecting gosms...

I'm not sure if the gosms issue is a regular one or not. I've got the sd Rescan on there now and we'll see if that helps. I have to go over her phone and get rid of as bunch of unused apps as it is. Not to mention she had about 8 updates that I took care of for her. Thanks a lot all!

I had the same problem after OTA update on the stock ROM.
Reset to factory defaults after update solved the problem.

[Q] QuickContact component missing

Hi, I'm using miroslav_mm SDSL 3.0 rom ad I'm having an issue with widget that use quickcontact. I'm using GO SMS Pro widget that shows the contact portrait received SMS's. When the portrait is clicked a quickcontact bar should pop up with shortcuts to call, send SMS or edit the contact but instead a pop out the following message: 'QuickContact component cannot be found in your system'. The same happens with GO Contacts widget.
Anyone knows how to get this working because on Google Play, GO SMS or even GO Contacts widgets say that this is working on Android 2.1 or later so should be working on 2.3.7...

Man, I'm always flashing new roms, now I'm experimenting leoposas zoe 2.0 rom, it's basically sdsl but with some tweaks of his... and when i say i'm always flashing new roms i mean backup contacts & sms, factory reset, format system+boot and then flash new rom. Basically cleanest flash is impossible
I've figured it out, quickcontacts component is embedded on contacts.apk, i'm using go contacts so i uninstalled the stock one.
