Need GPS fix in MIUI 5 - Micromax A116

The reason I am posting this here is because I am new member, I am not able to comment on the thread which I want to. :'(
So I flashed MIUI v5 rom provided by Kumar Abhishek. It works great but I think my GPS is not working. I use an app called " Foursquare " where it keeps showing " Still searching for location "
The same thing happened with few other apps which use Locations. Please help. :crying:

I dont use MIUI Rom, Sorry.

I use the following method for fixing GPS in every ROM
Enable gps and Open engineering mode
Go to location tab and open ygps. It will start scanning all nearby satellites.
Wait atleast 2 minutes
A message come on screen GPS fixed after xxxx sec.

I have tried this and it worked for me.
Download and place the GPS.CONF file in system/etc/
Rename the file to gps.conf
Let me know if it works for you, i am counting on this option since in MIUI rom you have access to advance GPS settings.

[Q] About Cynogenmod 7.1-cooper-KANG-BETA Android 2.3.5

Hi guys , i just installed cynogenmod & found that many google apps like market arent working correctly . In my case whenever i try to download any thing from market it says that therewas some problem in downloading & nothing seems to happen. I would really like if someone can help me out . Also , i seem to be missing the multiple delete option and themes in messaging app from Samsung. Any way i can use Samsungs messaging & contact list ?????
the sms theme is not "missing", its how the way its is in cm messaging app. no u cannot use messaging app from samsungs rom, it require its own framework, wont work with cm. use other third party messaging app like gosms, handcent or chompsms. those third party messaging app had theme customization till the very font color, not just bubble color like default samsungs messaging.
btw i cant understand why u guys had that many problem with gapps. for me its working flawlessly.
It's because they don't bother to read. Google apps are already in the rom. Market for example is frozen on first start but defrosted when you connect to the internet.
There is always problem with new market application. Better u switch back to older version. I advice version 2.3.4.
(Version 2.3.4 is for Andriod market version and not Gingerbread 2.3.4.)

I would say that happened because you flashed gapps. It's not necessary at all to do that. The market works fine from the original zip.

Kies doesn't support CM.. Next time synchronize contacts with GMail or use some other third party app..

You have to convert kies backup contacts into .vcf format and import it to contacts from SD card.Follow this ...

Just help the guy. Or don't. Don't ridicule him by showing that he doesn't knows, because clearly, as showed by the presence of his questions on the thread,
*NEWSFLASH*
He doesn't. And richorich, I recommend you going back to whatever ROM you had before and wait until the CyanogenMod port gets more stable. This kinda testing's a little bit tough on newbies, so don't stress yourself and trying reading around the forums so you can learn; I recommend you surfing on the Dev Forums. Cheers.

is there any application that called superuser or supersu ?
On the home screen you will see tools folder, open it then find permission (the icon like paper script) open that then choose manage root permission

I did that but it doesnt work , Also I flashed the superuser in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=997581
It always says superuser deny the apps.
Also regaridng battery I see you mention that it stays for only 5 hours , it stays with me for 20 hours with regular conditions & I am using battery deffender.
If I have any other comments I will mention it but we must root it
Again thanks for the good job
This rom is already pre-rooted no need to flash any thing as we generally do in stock roms.......
I think you have flashed some superuser.....so i think you need to re- flash the rom-(***do make a clean rom flash asper rom developer***)
Now after rom instal just instal root explorer......
Now as soon as u open root explorer a menu popup will apear it is just like superuser pop up ...(only the diffrence is this pop up will apear for 20sec...and contains so many warning message all u need to click next every time) (****refer attached images ****)
After this step you can see root folder .....
For every application which asks for root permission. U need to do this .....

I followed what jyeshta001 mentioned and it goes fine with me.
The point now that the screen turnes with some colors ( you can enter VPN and you will see it ). also it is very laggy and it make many restarts. aslo headset problem still exists,the automatic brightness & buttons lighting during press on it.
I have a question abour RAM as most of time it works with 100MB free only ( can we make any thing with that )
Finally Thanks to jyeshta001 for his replay.
Thanks to nom051205 for the rom and we hope to see further development
I have some time to support but I dont have any experince in roms editing so if you can advice with some links I could support.
Best regards

(QUOTE=sherifaly;32178538)
Use rom tool box pro / a strong startup manager so that u can control unwanted application running form the begining for startup.....
For head set one use a wedget called "toggle to head set" from playstore.
For lagness use any CPU tool like set CPU and set frequency as "1xx to 1xxx " and the governor to "on demand" (but drains battery)
For button lights "root dim " aPK. Will help u to some extend ......
For random colours on screen we will have to w8 "Nom bro" will bring a patch ....soon .....

Open the build.prop(this file is in system folder) in text editor of root explorer and add following lines at the end of build prop page ...
ro.product.model=GT-N7000
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
Then save &exit ....after that you should do a reboot.
Now check ur market compatability .... if this is not working then change the model number and manufacture name to some other one..... on above lines....
Give us the feedback if it is not working.....ok

okay, so did you try that trick, i think after trying you shouldn't have said that, even though what about those who does'nt want to credit there accounts, also ive mentioned about 4.0.4 roms, i know that they won't work on them since they're still on development stage so its better to stay on 2.3.3 for frequent voiper's

Trouble with Ace Cream Rom 1.4

Hi,
I've installed the rom without skipping any steps. But i cant use ant of browsers when only wi-fi connection is open. Browsers does not open any pages. But google play and sync. works fine. When I open 3G, i can surf on browsers.
I tried re-install the rom. Still same.
Is there any body who faced that problem?
(I've written here, because I can not write the developping room because of the 10 message rule)
