MIUI 1.10.7 using the Defy base and Gingerbread kernel is live on Rootzwiki.

I'm about to ask DXC for permission to repost the release thread here XDA.
[Droid X Android Development] atreyu954:
I'm having an issue with a friend's DX. For some reason her phone updated to 2.3.3 and unrooted, after finally figuring out that issue and getting root back and taking care of a bunch of issues with it, we went to upgrade to MIUI and everything went without a hitch except for now we're getting a notice "The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly" and FC's this happens with both incoming and outgoing calls. Does anyone have an easy and simple solution to this issue?
[Droid X Android Development] infazzdar:
Try fixing permissions.
[Droid X Android Development] atreyu954:
Tried that, it's not working. I'm at a loss of what to do. Any other ideas
[Droid X Android Development] infazzdar:
I can only think of SBFing and installing the newest MIUI version based on the Defy MIUI builds.
[Droid X Android Development] Greatdane:
FYI, I am on 605 Stock Rooted.

Any Help?

I have also tried the latest miui Rom.

Please....
[Droid X Android Development] j0shtalgia:
Can anyone take a moment to spell this one out for me? I just came off of liberty and have been looking for something new, and MIUI looks like it fits the bill for what I'm looking for.

I tried using Rom Manager to upgrade the ROM but that obviously wasn't ideal since my phone ended up constantly freezing on bootup.

I SBF'd and I'm back to stock. I've seen several posts with different methodologies and I'm not sure exactly what I need to do.

Currently I'm totally stock. Version info below.

Droid X

Sys Vers: 2.3.340

Droid Vers: 2.2.1

Kernel 2.6.32.9

If any other information is required please advise. Thanks guys!
[Droid X Android Development] infazzdar:
Upgrade to System version 4.5.602 (will also work on .605)

Then install MIUI version 1.10.07 (or 10.21 if it's released by tonight.)

The thread to download it from can be found on Rootzwiki; I will be reposting it on XDA late tonight.
[Droid X Android Development] J3bu5Cru57:
I followed this sticky in the MIUI sub-catigory on rootzwiki to get me on the defy base and had zero problems while on that ROM.

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/6775-guide-clean-rom-install-miui/

The only thing that sucked was having to track down and re-install all my apps as it was recommended at the time not to restore any form of backup (MIUI, TiBu, ect...) Might have changed by now as I haven't been on MIUI for a while. Hope I helped you out a little bit.
[Droid X Android Development] infazzdar:
New thread has been created for the latest version of MIUI.
[Droid X Android Development] Tekn010933:
You should have to see it through before leaving a comment towards another ROM, Miui is one of the biggest versitle through out different devices but without 4G operational in most it lacks for users who are unlimited to bandwidth. CM7 in the other hand just as the same, and everything works including 4G, so my opinion is hard cause both are amazing with Great Teams Behind it.

Ive got cm7 running again, my question is do i reboot recovery from global menu or from rom manager?
[Droid X Android Development] Juanito216:
Are you trying to install MIUI from CM7?
[Droid X Android Development] millbean:
Thinking about giving this a go for the weekend and give the tbolt a rest. Glad I haven't sold my old x yet!
[Droid X Android Development] Eris _2.1_2010:
Yes I am trying to.

There are people who know better than me, but before i flashed from CM7 to Apex i rebooted into recovery?
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Launcher Pro doesn't seem to like to run properly & FCs or is severely laggy. Gonna have to stick with the stock MIUI launcher for the time being.
[Droid X Android Development] shilohdrummer:
Clearly, you have not given the miui stock launcher a chance. You'll see that it's identical, if not BETTER then pro launcher. Thank you for listening.
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
So do you make it a habit of assuming things and making yourself look silly?

I'm assuming the answer is yes so to correct you, I have in fact used MIUI way before the DX release on my wife's Dinc. So to answer your question, I have given it a chance.

Also your response holds no ground what so ever either. I use Launcher Pro Plus (not sure what "Pro Launcher" is :P) because I use the widgets it has quite extensively...something MIUI doesn't have.

If I wanted to use a phone that I couldn't change and was looking for responses like yours, I would have stuck with the iPhone.
[Droid X Android Development] itzjen:
I love it so far! But I'm having some trouble alot of the text is in Chinese not all of it some of it its in English but I can't figure out how to make it all English any help anyone?
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Where are you seeing chinese characters at? Youre for sure gonna see then in the Theme manager when you download themes, etc. Thats even the case on the Incredible but doesn't usually affect what you actually see when you apply the themes.
[Droid X Android Development] bluxart:
I've been eyeing MIUI for a long time, especially the lockscreens. It's good to finally get on the Droid X.

I'm really eager to do this, but I'm also new to custom ROMs. I'm rooted on Froyo, with LCD density change, custom bootanimation, custom system font, and I think that's all. Since I'm on Froyo, I can just boot into recovery(make a backup of my stuff now, of course), factory wipe, then boot from the zip?

Has anyone had a successful install yet? I wanna get some opinions first, because I use my phone for work, so I can't go messing it up until I'm off. :p

Edit: Also, do I need to backup my contacts/messages and when using Titanium Backup, is the batch action of backing up all user apps enough? And Swype, it came preloaded on the DX, I'm assuming I'll have to get the beta or whatever is out right now, or does MIUI come with it?
[Droid X Android Development] PimpShit420:
Bootloops

I know the OP says that bootloops are normal but thats all I got. Over 30 minutes of bootloops, then tried battery pulls and rebooting and same thing. SBF'ing for now
[Droid X Android Development] itzjen:
On the lock screen the date is in Chinese and the pulldown bar like when I toggle GPS wifi data sound ect ....I can provide a screen shot but I'm not home at the moment ones I get home from work I will.
[Droid X Android Development] bluxart:
Couldn't wait any longer. Flashed MIUI, but I'm stuck on a bootloop. I know it's supposed to be normal, but how long do I have to wait? I did a battery pull after a few minutes, but I'm still in a bootloop.
[Droid X Android Development] Dangraef:
I installed over the top of Liquid Rom, not one boot loop. Rom has been working flawlessly! :)

Can anyone comment on the battery life? I stopped using CM4DX last week because of the (relatively) horrible battery life, and I would rather not SBF back to .340 to flash this just to find out the battery maybe lasts a full day...
[Droid X Android Development] millbean:
Can't seem download glympse on this rom. Other than that all seems good
[Droid X Android Development] jangjong:
I have the official extended battery. I just flashed this rom yesterday and Charged it to 100% couples hours ago.

I'm looking at the battery usage.

It has been running on battery for 1h 42m, and the battery is at 82%. It is pretty bad.

It's kind of strange though. I'm looking at the battery stat and it states that Android OS used up 90% of the battery.
[Droid X Android Development] fatmaninc:
yea i been using this rom since it come out and the battery life sucks compared to liberty v.09 gingerbread. if that helps. it really wont last a fully day if your a moderate to heavy use like i am.
[Droid X Android Development] Eris _2.1_2010:
+1 for bad battery life here, but I like MIUI too much lol.
[Droid X Android Development] infazzdar:
Agreed, battery life isn't the best, but this is the greatest rom I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing.
[Droid X Android Development] mmsiddi:
I read somewhere that all the battery issues are caused by not having a fully charged battery before you flash.. I got my battery to last 19 hours with moderate use. So try to have the battery fully charged before you flash
[Droid X Android Development] letterboxdreams:
My battery is a million times better on MIUI than CM7. I couldn't go 4 or 5 hours on CM7 before my phone would have to be recharged. It's lasting on average about 15 hours on a single charge since I flashed to MIUI on Friday. MIUI is working a lot better for me.

[Droid X Android Development] runandhide05:
Creadit goes not to me

This is exactly what i used and if followed to the letter should get you working

It wasn't completely clear what to do after you uninstalled Swype with TI Backup. The main difference is in red below which is that you must re-download Swype during the key generation process before restoring it to fool the installer. Here are the steps taken to help others in case the link isn't available at some point.

What a hassle.

The steps below were done with Swype 3.5.83.26516 and Swype Installer 1.5 using a valid beta account.

NOTE: This won't fix expired versions of Swype and you must use a current version.

1. Uninstall both Swype and Swype Installer

2. Download installer from swype

3. Run Swype Installer

4. Login using your Swype beta account

5. Choose the version of Swype you wish to download.

6. Install the downloaded Swype.

7. You should now be at a screen with 4 buttons, one of which says Generate License

8. Click Generate License

9. You will be at another screen with 3 buttons.

10. Click Select Android Keyboard and switch to the Android Keyboard

11. Your next step is to Disable Swype but DO NOT click Disable Swype since you currently can't do this in MIUI

12. Press Home button, open TI Backup, find Swype, back it up and then uninstall it from TI Backup

13. Long press Home and switch back to Swype Installer

14. This will cause it to go back to login.

15. Login to the installer again when it prompts for your credentials

16. Select the version of Swype you are already trying to install and actually download it again

17. After it downloads, DO NOT install it

18. Long press Home again and go back to TI Backup

19. Restore the Swype backup in TI Backup (App + Data), which will prompt you to install. Do the installation

20. Long press Home and go back to Swype Installer and cancel installation

21. This Will take you back to the screen saying it is trying to get a license but ignore it and go back to the home screen

22. Go to a text box such as a text message and click in the text box

23. Long press text field, click Input Method and select Android Keyboard* 24. Long press text field, click Input Method and select Swype*
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Figured out the severe lag and FC'ing was from restoring Launcher Pro w/ settings via TB. I did a fresh install of LPP & tweaked it...no stability issues.

The one bug I did notice is that I wasn't able to change the icons in the dock bar...it would FC when I tried to do that. I already sent a bug report to Fede though, just thought I'd share it here too.
[Droid X Android Development] ryanwv24:
So my battery has been uber trash since flashing. Today I fully charge stock battery and take off charger and in 53 minutes i am done to 79%. I have just checked a couple emails and that is it. I made it 4 hours yesterday before it died. I was late to work cause I did not put on charger and phone was at 69% when i went to bed and woke up and it was dead. Before I was getting 18-22 hours on a full charge. Something has to give.
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Have you cleared the battery stats after you complete an over night charge? I'm at 19h 38m with 10-15% battery left. I used to get meh battery life but yesterday I applied the auto brightness tweaks from the RootzWiki forum and that seemed to work great.
[Droid X Android Development] bluxart:
Can you provide the link to where you found those tweaks? Were they tweaks of the advanced settings, or something flashable?
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Sure: http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?913-CM4DX-Auto-brightness-Settings

It says CM7 but settings still apply since CM7 and MIUI are so similar. Oh and don't worry about the "upper" values because as you go through and change the other values the "upper" column will auto-adjust itself.
[Droid X Android Development] ryanwv24:
Yes i have let it charge and charge and charge some more and still crap. Where are the "tweeks" on rootzwiki? i have been watching the thread but can not find them.
[Droid X Android Development] marvelous7325:
Took my droid x off the charger at 6:30 in the morning, and i just got home from work and it's on the charger. It was on 45%, terrible battery life, but it was my first day, hopefully it'll settle in. I have it over/underclocked, and im cleaning up the unnecessary apps i don't need. All in all, this just made me love my droid even more. I just told my friend that the only way i'll get a new phone when my contract ends in march is if the droid x3 has 2 radios in it like the thunderbolt or it is a MAJOR hardware/software upgrade to the x2. I really love this rom and it was worth it. I wish the had an app drawer, because my screens are so unorganized.
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
That's why you use folders ;)

...or do what I did and use a different launcher. The MIUI Launcher is neat but nothing beats the widgets that come with Launcher Pro Plus.
[Droid X Android Development] marvelous7325:
Folders? Please tell more haha
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
You're joking right?
[Droid X Android Development] marvelous7325:
You gotta pardon me being slow. I didn't think about what I had said, so when you said folders, i thought it was a rom option lol. oops, did i mention i just got off of work earlier haha
[Droid X Android Development] marvelous7325:
Also, my long press on the lockscreen doesn't work. I try long pressing the sms icon to preview the message and nothing happens. It just says "slide to unlock." Any idea of how to fix this
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Oh, naw I was talking about the normal folders that are in Android itself.
[Droid X Android Development] tharris297:
There is a way to make a sudo app drawer. If you put all your icons in one large folder and organize by alpha ... voila .. app drawer. simply drag your new app drawer to the toolbar area at the bottom .. in between contacts and browser ... or anywhere you want down there ...
[Droid X Android Development] runandhide05:
Have u figured out if u can make multiple icons for the same app?
[Droid X Android Development] gomisan:
Can anyone confirm that MIUI can be flashed over other ROMS other than CM7? Just seems like a huge process to install CM7 and then MIUI. I ran MIUI on my Droind Incredible with Launcher Pro and loved it. The Incredible was a crap phone though..

I'm running Liberty and wondering if I can simply drop the .zip on my SD Card and flash it.. Can anyone confirm?
[Droid X Android Development] runandhide05:
So just had to go back to stock from this, too many bugs for the time being, but I should have pulled a few apk before I left, could any one pull a few apk and post, mainly what im looking for are the gallery, and the file manager apk.

Thanks in advance
[Droid X Android Development] gomisan:
To follow up to my question. I flashed MIUI over Liberty 2.0 last night. I did it by dropping the .Zip on my SD Card and installing it from Rom Manager.. No issues as of yet and MIUI is running as smooth as it did on my Incredible. This just added new life into my Droid X. I like the feel and long press options of MIUI, but hate the clutter with no app drawer, unless I'm not privy to another option (Folder's possibly).

Some have complained about Launcher Pro not working with MIUI. I installed Launcher Pro and it's working fine. On the fence about going back to Launcher Pro, or running the MIUI launcher.

Overall, I'm super happy with this ROM and the smooth nature of it. I had 70% battery last night and woke up this morning and my battery was almost fully drained? WTF? I setup my normal SetCPU "Screen Off" 300/300 so we'll see how this affects the horrible battery life.
[Droid X Android Development] jangjong:
I haven't used Liberty rom for awhile, but I know jrummy was working on one based on CM7 or something.. Are you using that one? or are you using the one based on 4.5.596 ?

If i'm right, even though CM7 and MIUI are both Gingerbread, it uses 2nd init and that is based on 2.3.340. so your dx needs to be Android 2.2.1 2.3.340 to install either one. and unless you have the rom that's based on 2.3.340, you can't install MIUI over it.

EDIT: Well, what a late reply i did haha. Good to hear it worked for you
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
I originally posted that I was having problems with Launcher Pro Plus but I figured out it was probably because I restored from TB and didn't do a fresh install. I've been running a fresh install of LPP for the last 1-2 days and so far no performance problems to speak of.

The only problem I've noticed is trying to change the dock icons. The only way I was able to successfully change then was using the app "Custom Launcher Icons" (which I bought sometime last year).

That battery issue you mentioned doesn't sound right though, have you tried clearing out battery stats & checking the auto update settings of your apps?

I would also HIGHLY recommend checking the CM4DX auto brightness settings I shared from Rootzwiki. I recently applied those and now I'm getting 19-20 hours of battery with maybe moderate use (our just below moderate use.)
[Droid X Android Development] marvelous7325:
hey everyone thanks for all the help before. I made a folder and added the apps in it. One more thing though, does anyone know how to easily import itunes playlist into the stock player? I really like it and it's organized, but I don't want to spend hours adding songs to playlists. I hope tomorrow on their friday updates, they incorporate this small but useful feature.
[Droid X Android Development] Juanito216:
Does anyone know if I could use this rom while flashed to another carrier?
[Droid X Android Development] bigshotrob22:
Yes but you will need to do the necessary stuff to get web and mms working again.
[Droid X Android Development] shilohdrummer:
Does anyone have problems finding certain apps in the market? For Example, were you guys able to find the Bank of America app or the My Verizon app in the market? It's not in their anymore after I installed MIUI.
[Droid X Android Development] curtdragon:
I had this problem before. You need to grab the upgrade from ROM Manager and it will fix this and a few other issues.

I had problems getting the upgrade, I had to flash the DroidX 2init recovery before it showed an update.
[Droid X Android Development] piiman:
I went to flash this over the .22 version but when I went to recovery its was the old standard android recovery. WTF? How do I get CW4 on it now? Can you still use bootstrapper (I thought I read you couldn't) is there a odin version I can install?
[Droid X Android Development] curtdragon:
I tried to do it automatically from ROM manager but that didnt work for me either. I had to reboot into recovery using ROM manager and then installed the update by browsing to the clockworkmod update folder. I would not use the bootstrapper app once you have MIUI on as it caused me to be stuck at the M screen and I had to SBF and start over.
[Droid X Android Development] curtdragon:
What blacklist app does this app use or try to use? When you go into the menu in the call history they is a blacklist option but it says "no application found to handle this action"

Tip for better battery life:

Disable data monitoring in the Monitor application. Word has it that this increases battery life a decent amount.
[Droid X Android Development] gomisan:
Is there a known kernel to improve the battery life of this ROM? I just disabled the data monitoring. We'll see if that works. The auto brightness settings seems like to much to tinker with.
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Uh there is no other kernel you can try...the Droid X has a locked bootloader...perhaps you missed that part ;)

The auto-brightness settings are not that hard to mess with...go back a page or 2 and find the link I shared from RootzWiki. I thought it would be too tough to mess with & it ended up being a lot easier to do then I thought. It WILL give you a nice boost in battery life...trust me.
[Droid X Android Development] gomisan:
yeah I'm not too privy on the Droid X as the Droid Incredible was my initial phone. It was plagued with boot loops so I sold the replacement and bought a Droid X off of craiglist. Still learning the Droid X, so wasn't aware of the locked bootloader dealio, the reason I asked.. I flashed Liberty 2.0 on the phone after I bought and haven't had to do much to it. That ROM was cool, but I ran MIUI on the incredible, the reason I wanted to jump on it for the Droid X.
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Keep forgetting to ask & apologies if this has been mentioned before (I didn't see anything searching for "USB" in the thread"...but anyone having issues (or know how to fix) USB connection issues?

I'm on 1.7.22.1 (had the same problem with 1.7.22 as well) & plugging in my phone gives me no option (in Windows) to access the phone's SD card nor can I choose an option on the phone.

Any ideas?
