Love MIUI, not sure what's official about this ROM over any of the others though. It's community support like many of the others and has the same bugs at the same stage of development. There are now at least four versions of MIUI ROM's here, and all more or less are only slightly different from one another.

Personally used all of the but this one [as its new], stayed with Osimod because he got the Chinese characters fixed the best of the ROM's. Behavior etc is the same between all the mods.

Dark theme and some theme FC's is MIUI in general for instance [not to this ROM in specific, but MIUI in general}. There a lot of bugs with it that can be found to be unilaterally the same among all versions of MIUI out at the present.

Official would be a direct Chinese made MIUI for the specific devices of Desire Z and G2 [i.e. full keyboard support, landscaped launcher when keyboard's extended and .com key working on the G2 models.] That's not there so far, as ALL of these are unofficial ports of MIUI from non-keyboard device centered MIUI code.

Just my opinion on the use of the words Official in a post :)

IMO You can expect more responsive control of the device with the MIUI ROM. There are numerous options to be controlled that are not present or are limited in other ROM's. Its very clean and runs smooth, usually having plenty of free app ram to run things. Downside, its NOT made for a keyboard device and so is not going to have those features in mind. G2 Keys do not work, .com key works as tab only and there is no landscape mode for the launcher. Upside mms notification and reply option is available in all apps [have yet to find anything better for this] and built in unknown call blocking [a very nice feature]. Themes are extremely detailed, again unlike anything offered by other ROM's. Boot screen, Boot sound, Lock screen, numerous personal preference details in the UI theme and sounds ... very fun when you can get the right one working good.

Give the ROM a look, search the forums for an encountered issue [check the other MIUI threads] and enjoy :)

Saw this in the other OsiMood MIUI thread... the Theme Manager FC fix is resolved here:

http://forums.miuiandroid.com/showt...Theme-Manager-FC&p=67990&viewfull=1#post67990

Flashed successfully, at least for me.

If you just want the direct flashable ZIP, I mirrored it here: http://bit.ly/mlMB0U
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nicolfa:
Was about to post that too prp2 :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] prp2:
Actually, that fix doesn't seem to fully "fix" it. While it didn't force close when applying themes, it also didn't apply them. Just reverted back to the default theme, for everything but the main icons (on the bottom dock). Those stayed from a different theme.

Also, it did FC again once I tried downloading a new theme to test it some more. Ah well. It's partly there.

Video Review of 1.6.10

I'm proud to present the MIUI.us review of the 1.6.10 build!

Enjoy! :D

LMAO At the cat! You lifted the phone at the perfect time! lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dogei22:
Looks great, would be my first ROM choice only if it would be more stable.

A few FCs every now and then for different apps, e.g. FB (in addition to the ones already reported in this forum).

Also, the biggest issue was that it keeps loosing my contacts (synced with Google through mobile Exchange = corporate account), they just disappear from the contact list. After a reboot, they come back again, just to disappear a few hours later. I have not found the reason why this happens, but makes the rom unusable for me for the moment.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] funkdoobi:
hmmm. titanium backup wont load for me, anyone else having this issue?

edit: this rom's crazy buggy. keep getting force closes and all that jazz from a fresh install. oh well. worth the try.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] prp2:
Make sure you grab the newest build of it, 3.8.5.2. Finally fixes the data restore bug that I'd been banging my head against the wall all day over and flashing five different ROMs thinking it was something I was doing wrong.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Spastic909:
this rom is dope!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] miui-us:
We are working on the fix for the Theme Manager right now and hope to have it done soon for all phone any minute now. Sorry for the issue. :(

Yes, from what I hear JasonK75 was laughing at that himself!! You can't plan for that type of comedy!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Decided to give this a try.

One bug I noticed is that when I send a text message to someone, it notifies me that I received a text from that person a few seconds later.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DROITURK182:
Thanks for the suggestion

Thanks for responding back with a suggestion but I think you getting a .apk file confused with a desktop application. To my knowledge there isn't a right click on android or a double click, I've tried to install with the file manager on the phone and it keeps telling me that "application not installed." message. That's why I asked if it needs to be adb pushed to the phone. I just tried using root explorer and no go I think I'm going to try adb maybe I still have a website saved in my bookmarks discribing how to do it. Its been awhile since I've done adb afterwards I'll write back if it works or not.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MrFrankfromCM:
Ooops, sorry if I confused you...and me. But I did mean you can just 'tap' the .apk files and get an option to install.

To be more specific with Root Explorer since I have it too....click the file and you should get a prompt from Package Installer and options to either Install, View and Cancel. Just click Install.

Someobody asked this earlier in the thread and I haven't seen or found an answer. WIFI calling app for tmobile users? I tried the Market and didn't see it, does it not work for this ROM?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fluxgfx:
Has anyone noticed that in version 1.11.4 when using the gallery to post a picture to Facebook it get's deleted of your gallery?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DROITURK182:
Yes it works

Yes the WIFI calling app works with this rom and the newest one also the 1.11.4 that just came out also. I used titanium backup and restored the app from a previous rom just the app not app+data and it works flawlessly.

How is that new radio working on your G2?

Mine loses GPS signal...

I am on 26.10.04.03...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DROITURK182:
I had a hard time with the GPS locking also but just flashed vision_wipe_efs_signed.zip after flashing the new update. And downloaded a app from the market called faster fix and that fixed my GPS problem and I'm using the newest T-Mobile radio from the stock rom update.

Sent from my 7 inch HTC Space Banana running AOSP MIUI 1.11.4 - gingerbread 2.3.7
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
I have this problem too. I read somewhere that clearing data/cache fixes it, I did this but have yet to test if it does it or not. I can post pictures to groups I'm in, as long as I do it from inside the app, it doesn't remove the picture. This happened in a previous build of MIUI as well, I'm not sure if it's the ROM, or the app, or the app being on the ROM? :confused:

Works great! I don't get any better or worse signal where I usually go, and haven't noticed any increase or decrease in battery drain. Also get GPS lock in seconds, I have never had a problem with GPS lock on this G2, I did on my old G2. I was running 10.04.03 before switching to this radio.

Also, where's the update??? lol!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g2uzer:
so this rom changes your radio??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mintaeroboy:
Phone freezes when playing music and receiving a message,
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
No, a custom ROM will not change your radio. The only ROM's that will, or have the chance to change your radio, are ROM images titles as: PC10IMG and need to be loaded through the bootloader, and not recovery.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g2uzer:
thanks a bunch!:) one more question, is this rom safe to use ( any rom safe from xda) ? im really new at rooting so any help will be appreciated;) THIS ROM IS SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
This ROM is as safe as any to use!

As usual, here is my "big picture" Mms.apk.

And I think, since there are a few MIUI roms, I'm going to make a new thread for my Mms.apk file.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g2uzer:
THANKS;) one more thing, ive been searching but haven't found if any fix to the "unknown number" issue under settings, system ,about phone, status and my phone number and it showing unknown, this is preventing me from using tikl:(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
I have never had this issue, but I have read about others having it. some of them call in to their service provider, explain that they can't use an app because the phone doesn't know the phone number and they send some OTA updates. But I've heard of some cases where they had to get a new SIM card as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g2uzer:
I'm sure its not my sim card because my other phone does show my number and all the other roms I install show my number except miui:( I really like this rom but that's the only issue I have. When I call or text some one it does show my number but like I said the apps that need it won't work( like tikl), is there a way to add it ? I read that some roms you could add it but I haven't been able to find it on this one. Thanks for the response:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
Yeah, can't manually add your phone number in this rom like you can others. Sorry!

possible memory issue

has anyone been having problems with memory on the more recent miui roms, this build and the last two i have been having my memory being eaten up like crazy, itll start at 250mb then by the end of day itll be at 100mb and ill use the app killer frequently and itll free some up but the total amount just keeps going down.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
No memory issues here. Though I did have a random reboot earlier while trying to read a mail in the gmail app. Right now I'm sitting at 50% used.

On the newest one 1.12.9

I updated from 1.12.2 to 1.12.9 and everything went well except I get force close on galley bad. can't even use the camera to view pictures it force closes, I flashed just clearing out cache and dalvik like normal any ideas what to do. I read on the miui.us forms that someone had fixed the galley force close but it was on the fascinate rom. has anybody had the same problem..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
No problem with the gallery here, other than when uploading pics from the gallery to facebook, the pictures poof.

format cache and dalvik and reflash the rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] astriaos:
Hi. This is my first time using an MIUI based rom and I'm having a couple problems. First, the .com hard button doesn't work properly. Are there any patches for this? I've dug around and can't seem to locate anything.

Second, upon installing applications from the market I'll get an Insufficient Space notification which is patently false. Then after restarting the install it will go through fine. Anyone else having this issue?

Edit, just saw this can't help but address it.

Hey dude. The reason why you're having "memory issues" is because of the way android caches things into memory. What you're actually doing by using a task manager is making overall system responsiveness go down.

Android can manage memory usage way better than you can. You might want to read the following linked article!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kitila:
First off DON'T us a task killer pointless, next see if ur sync'ing all day that will eat up space only sync when u need it too....both also help batt life
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GamerGuy80:
thanks for referring to me to this article i had no clue, after my phone just running daily activities it would become sluggish and here i thought doing task killer was helping and it wasnt. im gonna start and see which apps are just consuming cpu usage maybe its time for some spring cleaning...another thing is i usually install everything to phone should i start switching them over to sdcard...would that help some?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sahurbari:
Will this os ever receive launcher rotation on the homescreen I love miui but I hate the fact I have to type in the search bar with the keyboard.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
I'm not sure how many phones have a .com/www. button, but MIUI isn't built JUST for the G2, which is why there isn't support for it. possibly one of the "local" MIUI builds fixes this with a probably Vision keyboard file?

This has been in the works for ages, possibly they are going to add this function when they release MIUI 4.0, which is based on ICS. The hardware keyboard works when using the search bar, the screen just doesn't rotate. It's not too difficult to tilt your head slightly?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sahurbari:
Your absolutely right but I don't want to I feel as though if the rom is suppose to be compatible with the desire z we shouldn't have that problem with the vast updates they were implementing
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] astriaos:
Well it's really not that big of a deal to implement a flashable keyboard file. maybe I should go check out Bulletproof MIUI? I'm really digging a bunch of stuff about this style of rom but not having a .com hardware button is kind of irritating.

Everything else has been pretty dang smooth though.

Edit: Okay well I can't even find Bulletproof MIUI anymore. The only ones I can see are XmedroidX and they always do the goofiest theming and Osimood but god knows if that's actually been updated since 9/12/11 so I guess I'm stuck with this.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
I know we're not all this way, but I find that silly .www/.com key as an annoyance on the keyboard. I type www. or .com faster than I could hit that button, but only because I'd have to *think* about hitting that button.

But... like I said, we all aren't that way. I just find the ROM as a whole so kickass that the minor annoyances like a couple of the "bonus" hardware keys not working, and screen rotation on the launcher frivolous.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
My only complaint is not having a swipe away notification bar to clear only certain notifications. Other than that I'm really liking miui.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Yeah you don't realize how much you use it till you switch to MIUI from a CM7 ROM. Kinda annoying but not a deal breaker by any means.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] astriaos:
Agreed, it's not killing it completely for me. I really dig how settings for device/apps/software are categorized. Stock browser is honestly extremely good. I've been using Dolphin Browser Lite since February and this is the first browser that I've been genuinely impressed with in its minimalistic interface and security options.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sandipbarik:
Im using the "MIUI.us_vision_1.12.16" on my Desire z ...so far its an amazing rom, smooth fast, im loving it, but there is one problem...

the display turns off when i use it outdoors in bright sunlight with the keyboard opened (like when typing an sms)...however the capacitive buttons stay lit, and the screen stays off until i push the lock button again (the tp wake doesnt work only the lock button turns the display on)..however it works perfectly indoors, or in shade..sounds weird i know :-) ...i can post a video if anybody wants

also if i open the qwerty slider while the mobile is in sleep, the display stays off, only the capacitive buttons light up....this happens in any condition...so i have to unlock the screen then open the slider for it to work.

is this a known bug or is there a fix to this, please let me know if anybody knows whats wrong

Thank u
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] silverton:
Crazy! I suggest doing a full data/cache wipe and reflashing from a clean slate.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Sounds like you should just reflash clean. Never heard of this.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sandipbarik:
.

Okay it was not miui's fault...seems the ribbon cable was damaged :D

had a few days warranty left, and HTC repaired it for free (still had the miui installed in it with S-off and root)

And i thought rooting and installing custom roms voids warranty :rolleyes:

i m in love with htc service :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] astriaos:
Okay so I started to get some really weird bugs on the last release. In attempting to instal any applications, I get a "not enough app space" warning but after a couple tries, it will actually install.

Also another odd bug I noticed was after a week or so of testing was in attempting to access advanced battery stats it would crash the entire Settings apk.

If I could only figure out how to stuff the Miui browser and the battery stats page into Cyanogen I would be a very happy man.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
That has happened to me too. Whenever I had the "track battery use" or whatever on and left it for a few days (without toggling off/on to clear it), it would FC almost every time I tried to go into it. The battery use graph/percentage area has always been buggy/slow for me for months I've just generally stopped using it.

FWIW the battery use page seems to inaccurately show usage and awake times anyways, it pretty much just made me paranoid about nothing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
I second everything you just said. MIUI's battery history stats are bull****, period.

When my phone is running MIUI, I just use Spare Parts of Bettery Battery Stats to track the wake/usage.

---------- Post added at 01:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 AM ----------

For the browser, just install "Miren Browser" from the market, it's what MIUI's browser is based on (also developed by Xiaomi, the developers behind MIUI). As mentioned in my last post, the battery stats are poison and should be avoided at all costs. <3

edit: as it turns out, Miren was removed from the market for whatever reason. Just Google for the APK, it'll be in the first couple results. Cheers
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Thanks for the headsup on the battery app, tun4. Looks confusing but I'm sure it'll make more sense with a day of usage to look at.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bigt2003:
The old market used to do that. What version are you using?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Razorless:
Hey there,

flashed the ROM after creating 4GB ext partition on my sd card and flashing super wipe+ext4.

Everything works fine except emebedded flash video is really choppy, like really not pretty to look at.

Any ideas?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] astriaos:
Thanks for the tip. I asked around on another few sites and the name Boat Browser came up a couple times as a pretty decent stand in for Mirin. I jumped ship from Dolphin Browser Mini just to change things up. Plus it has a nice pleasing blue semi-iOSish shade among the built in theme pack.

I digress though. It's a shame the MIUI built in stats end up dying since their so ridiculously detailed. Very laggy after the initial couple charts and I imagine there is a glitch in the code for purging whatever cache it dealt with if you don't reboot your phone every day or two.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nicolfa:
I just tried to install hulu+ on my device as the G2 is now listed, it gives me the device is not supported and is adement that the device is Desire Z which isn't listed. Anyway around this?

Any ideas as to why? Thanks.

Seems to be a problem with the stock browser, cuz opera works just fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nicolfa:
Hulu+ doesn't run on stock T-Mobile rom when rooted it seems (flashed to find out). Anyhows while flashing through various roms I found in all other roms I can use launchkey to assign programs to the three hard silver buttons. Miui.us does not even acknowledge the buttons being pressed. My question is can I use a kernel from cm or virt roms?

Just installed this ROM and I think it looks great so far. Thanks for the hard work MIUI! I've noticed a couple of problems so far:

1) There are Chinese symbols under the dates in the calendar.

2) The screen shot option by holding down the menu and volume down button makes the sound as if it captured a picture, but going to the MIUI folder I'm unable to locate any screenshot.

3) The firewall under the data manager doesn't seem to work. I've ensured it's enabled and have tested it both ways to see if selecting the app allows or denies data access but either way data is allowed.

4) The torch app works yet the flash will not come on while taking a picture. This happens whether the flash is set to auto or always on.
