That's a funny response biggrin.gif . You are in italy?
Don't worry about imei because you can always restore efs folder. Beta 8 was really buggy. Maybe beta 8r2 is better. Please share your experience!

There's efs backup cwm package. To restore in case of changed imei number, just copy paste the content of backed up efs folder in your internal sdcard into /efs folder using rootexplorer
*
but where do i get that efs backup cwm package??

is there a way to use ZSJPE modem with MIUI firmware???

Our sifu freakfingers should be able to answer that.

- try lock and unlock screen
- check imei by dialing *#06# if it is changed, copy the content of backed up efs folder into /efs folder
*
lol IMEI gone...

i kinda love this rom for all the added features and it really looks nice... problem now is i cant call out becoz i cant get any telco signals and overall the transitions and so on are a bit choppy... some apps are slow when its launched... do we need a lagfix for this?

Do you have a backed up /efs folder? Maybe long time ago before flashing custom rom? The instruction explicitly says to flash the efsbackup.zip
*
yup i still have the efs backup with me... i will do it later once i can get my phone to call out and receive messages T_T

You're on B8r2? A lot of ppl get this cos the script doesn't restore efs. Since you have efs in backup/efs, then flash to Beta 7 then flash to Beta 8r2. Remember to wipe at least /system and /cache before flashing each Beta.
Lock and unlock everytime you boot, or else you most probably have choppy animation and no signal. It's a CM7 bug.
*
awww... so unless i get to beta 7 i wont get to call anybody???
can i flash zsjpg into MIUI to get better gps performance?

Does copying the backed up content of efs folder into /efs works too?

Also, I thought beta 8r2 is based on official miui, not cm7.
*
its based on official MIUI but i suppose its using CM7 kernel... thus all the bugs???
its really a nice rom... really hope one day it could reach stable state and i'll stick to it for the rest of the time XD

It is solved. This is based off MIUI.cn preview and it's done from ground up by Chinese miui, only CM7 bug left is RIL Polling.  rclxm9.gif

what RIL polling... phone rebooting after flashing ^^

Lol, it's about choice. And with MIUI, I feel Android is getting closer to the polished vibe of iPhone, not being iPhonish, just being more refined than normal Android. And also, there are thousands of themes, you can get closer to the iPhone feel or closer to the Honeycomb feel. I love it. Not to mention it's fast. biggrin.gif
RIL polling basically causes this: when you reboot you phone, you need to lock and unlock it. That's a bug in CM7.
*
oh icic... ya thats what happen when i start the camera app... i need to lock and unlock to be able to see the preview...

problem now is... WIFI is not working T_T

strongly depends on how u see it... dont always think that our SGS is laggy and have gps issues, those issues are of the past... then its comparable to most phones except dual core ones
