If anyone else is running MIUI 2.1.13 with the latest SiyahKernel, could you please try downloading/installing some app or another from the Android market website? Because I live in a 2g area, I have to download my apps from the website. Any time I try to search for an app in the Market on my phone, my connection times out. I have no wi-fi for the vast majority of my day, so that's also out.
I would really like to determine if this is a known issue or if this is an isolated problem. If it's isolated, I'll reflash in hopes that it will work. If not, I'd obviously rather not.
Did you look in that ROM's thread in Dev to see if anyone else reported a similar issue?
I searched the MIUI thread but didn't find anything. It's possible that I missed it, I suppose, but I don't know what else to search for other than what I already have.
Try to enable sync on all Google related services and then using the Market on the website.
If its turned off then it probably won't get pushed to your device.

Did you before you made this jerk response? Or did you just assume that help was already in that thread.
I made sure that all google services are free to sync as they wish. That didn't do it. I re-flashed MIUI. That didn't do it either, unfortunately.

New users come to xda and ask simple, common questions on a regular basis. It's not uncommon for someone with a low post count to dive straight into posting, rather than utilize the search button.

It didn't look like a jerk response to me. It looked like a reasonable response. He was merely pointing him in that direction to see if it might have been answered, especially since a lot of people on here don't bother to search.
As for the topic, my experience with MIUI is that all the apps never show up in the market, and is part of the reason I've never really stuck with it. It has to do with google not recognizing it as one of the standard UIs on their list for our phone, therefore not all the apps are shown. At least that's what I've seen explained in the past. Hope this helps.

Unlike your response, there was nothing jerky about mine. The guy has 8 posts. It's possible he might not have even thought to look where I pointed him. I said nothing derogatory to him. Any perceived jerkiness is in your head as evidenced by the two following posters. Don't bother with an apology as your screen name fits you perfectly.
Thread cleaned up...
Have the same issue as the author of this thread. Using Nexus S, Kalimchoaz's Rom v. 2.1. Does anyone have any solutions?
I was able to do it just fine on WIUI 2.1.13 -- I probably got around 80 apps that way. However, I was redownloading them and had previously already gotten them, so it may be different. I no longer have WIUI, so I can't check if I have your issue. I guess MIUI may be different than WIUI...

The reason I bring this up is because I feel like I started getting these calls, which has nobody on the other end and you can't call them back (line is disconnected), when I started rooting my phone.
Just a shot in the dark...hoping by rooting my phone and installing these roms I haven't given my number to some entity.
Anyone else getting this?

Why post this in here? This belongs in General.
If anything this belongs on the general discussion, it is not develpoment related.
my fault. sorry guys.
can someone just kill this thread now before it catches the whole section on fire from the flaming that is likely to ensue?
this is a perfect example of what we were talking about yesterday. Starting threads that have nothing to with development. This needs to be in general, but even then it may be questionable as its not really Eris specific.
OP, please understand that this forum is about developing roms for rooted phones.
ummm so is this like an actual question or are you just wasting space on the board?
what in your right mind makes you think rooting and flashing your phone will send numbers to telemarketers? i mean someone please correct me if im wrong but i think its called PUT YOURSELF ON THE DO NOT CALL LIST?!
Instead of replying to posts like, people need to simply hit the "Report post" button.

It was a timing thing...I wasn't getting called until after I decided to start mod'ing my phone.
Given that rooting/flashing the phone is because 3rd party developers get their fingers in the code, etc.. I didn't know if there was a possibility an app on the phone "phones home" per se my phone number to some call center.
just trying to connect dots...since it already seems like its a single case of just me, then its not the root / flash issue.
no need to be a **** about it...my original post wasn't flaming anyone nor was it written in poor taste, just trying to connect dots.

Well to answer your actual question OP, instead of posting just for the sake of getting my posts up, I haven't experienced anything of that nature. I doubt it would do with rooting though because then many of us would also be complaining about those calls. Maybe an app you installed? website you visited? Text you sent out? try tracing your steps
Edit: Also, if all else fails, just block the number

Are any CM7 testers experiencing this?
Please don't create multiple threads for the same issue. People will respond to your first post if they have something to say.
Okay, but while the issue is the same, the question I'm asking is different and thought it warranted its own thread. I would have asked my question in the CM7 thread but I do not have sufficient privileges.
Does the issue exist on a different ROM?
We do not have different roms yet, and CM7 has not been released for use.
One thing that I have noticed is that there is no shortage of forum cops on these boards... but surprisingly few people willing to answer questions. I understand the mindset... spoonfeeding newbs just empowers them to brick their devices. But this doesn't seem like an unreasonable question, even if he originally brought the issue up in another post.

I agree 100%. It seems the nt forum is full of tough guys who also pretend to be smart asses, but actually these guys are no help whatsoever. So I try to help when necessary and be quiet when I need to be. Other than that this forum is turning into a joke with these guys.
As for the headphone issue, I'm sorry but I'm no help. I'm currently only using my tablet for games and reading.

Agreed. I understand not wanting to clog up the boards, but talking about an issue in more detail again makes it that much easier for everyone else in the world to find information about. Let a moderator decide what's allowed where.
Anyway, yeah I'm stumped about the popping noise, too. At first I thought it was just my headphones, but it must be part of the NT hardware doing it if everyone else is having trouble, too. Doesn't seem like we'll be able to be change it.
Running CM7 early alpha here, still have the pops . I never noticed it until you pointed it out. I always blamed my old headphones. Hopefully the test version with the new kernel helps this issue.
Thanks to everyone who commented positively.

Unfortunately the same thing happens when on the latest CM7 build. So it appears to be a hardware issue.

An unfortunate and condescending response considering that a that good part of this site is APKs redistributed or modified without permission in ROMs or for those in regions arbitrarily without access to the latest and greatest apps.
Thankfully I know how to look up modifying my build.props to get it installed, I was just hoping to avoid the hassle by finding someone helpful out there.
I guess that as is increasingly the case one will have to go and help themselves.

DigitalMD’s response was the correct one. There was nothing unfortunate or condescending about it.
He went to the trouble to locate the author’s web page in an effort to help you.
As far as developers incorporating apks in their roms, all of them secure permissions before using someone else’s work

If you expect people to break rules and pirate stuff because you are too lazy, then Yeah off you go.
Impressive ...
I posted a response to the accusations to piracy and laziness, and a suggestion that maybe the reason why many users are here is to run unsupported stuff on their phone. I also stated that to suggest that all those HTC/Sony/Sammy variant ROMs are done with the full permission of the manufactures is also patently false.
My post got deleted and I have 6 months of infraction points ...
XDA really has gone down the toilet.
Anyway, the important piece of information that I posted is that DroidDia runs fine on at least two unsupported devices (Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Note) ... I extracted the APK from a Nexus One and installed directly.
Feel free to abuse me again for as long as this post remains ...
As apparently it is OK
Not that I expect this post to last much longer than the last one
Hmm.. interesting debate you guys are having in here. Here is how this is supposed to work:
MaxJavi, believe it or not, is not in fact asking for warez at all since the app is free (just restricted in its distribution due to Market's policies). Reposting the apk needs to be done with the developer's permissions but as it is not a paid app nor does it use any kind of licensing model such as Swype, it should be ok to post under our rules (of course, unless the IP owner complaints, in which case it has to be taken down).
On the other side of the coin, the answer provided to him was neither wrong, unfortunate, or condescending. It was in fact 100% correct. @MaxJavi, you were provided with the correct answer and your response to a helpful post (not too many of these around these days) was far more condescending, inflammatory, and filled with disdain than what you claim the other response was. A simple "thanks for the response" even if it would have meant for you to have to go to Google for 15 seconds to find the apk or ask the dev if you could have it would have been the correct venue. The infraction that you received was for the attitude you had towards someone simply taking the time to reply to you in a courteous manner, who even went as far as searching for the company in Google and posting a link for you to contact them.
I hope the OP doesn't mind, but I am closing this thread now as answers have been provided.

Hi, I am DroidDia developer.
I don't understand your problems with APK on Android Market. I added APK on market for all devices and all regions. But, maybe I am doing something bad.

Hi,
does anybody have any contact to someone in google with who I'm able to talk about partnership regarding licensing google apps for android?
I'm trying to contact them since April 21st to every email address I could find on the net, but I didn't get any response.
Thing is I'm developing my rom for my hardware which is manufactured in China, based on Amlogic chipset, it is fully compatible with their tests and passes all of them...
Don't know what else to do... I'm thinking of writing a story about my experience and mail it to press..... maybe that will get to google...

Not a problem (as long as it doesn't happen again ). I did leave it in development for a few days as I was 50/50 about whether it was the right place or not, so moving it now will probably give you twice the exposure.
Hope you get the answer you're looking for.

Anyone have a Nexus 7 wifi only?
IF SO, I have a favor to ask you. I tried posting this on the Nexus 7 forums, but there's so many people there and so many threads my thread got buried so quick. Plus, everyone here is generally nicer and more responsive.
I made some modifications to my N7 at some point, and now that I want to upgrade to 4.2.2 it fails because of issues relating to Gallery.
I think I'm missing some files. IF anyone has a rooted stock N7 could they post any of the "gallery related" apps / files from System/app (Gallery.apk, GoogleGallery, etc, etc)
If not, I'll keep trying to remedy this another way lol

Except for the fact that it's in the Inc4G forum so he probably thought let it die so.....
It's not a glitch, this isn't Wreck it Ralph.
I know it shouldn't have been posted here anyway, but I was getting frustrated :/
Anyway, I solved it by googling and finding a stock ROM and getting the files from that zip.
Then I decided to flash Cyanogenmod to it anyway, so really I was wasting my own time and other people's time.
My apologies.
