[XPERIA X10 Android Development] themis123:
One of the best MIUI roms out there. It is the best in terms of free RAM (I get about 120MB after loading everything).

Suitable for everyday usage, no FCs.

(I have installed the better in my opinion MIUI dialer instead of the SEMC).

Please update to 1.9.30.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] sika68:
I have been using since day one, it is stable, no fc. I am using the previous version with miui contact manager since the dialer is very nice. An update is welcome.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] timchew:
This is the best Miui ROM with the most free memory (250MB) and Best of all wifi working and data connection is excellent!!

@alzbac, please work on 1.9.30!!

SE Likes + Doom V5 Kernel - Battery life in 3G and WIFI

Hi I would like to know if there is a way of improving battery life when using 3G and WIFI.

The deep sleep and frequency settings for SetCPU and No Frills work wonders for the battery, however I have notice battery drain with 3G and Wifi.

Is there something that can be done?

Thanks for the awsom ROM!!!

Keep the good work.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] alzbac:
New ROM coming soon.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] acerulz:
waitin for it !!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] alzbac:
I will post BETA version in main post.It has some bugs and we need to wait for a new version of MIUI.Theme manager doesn't work(It even can't aply default theme)

wifi uses i think static IP...We'll see what will new version bring.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] silveraero:
WTH??? 250MB ??? 250 what?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] grgsiocl:
hai alzbac... nice to see one more ROM from you....Ypu rightly said, theme manager cant be applied with the latest MIUI version. I checked even with whitecookie, by putting launcher2 (selike) from tripnraver and flashed it. Launcher is working fine but you cant apply theme...

I checked with TripnRaver sensation, but there it is working fine even with selike launcher. According to his build.prop, the MIUI version is 1.9.30....

I am downloading yours and let me check for any bugs....

great work! cheers
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] grgsiocl:
Downloaded and tested!

1.. New installed apps ICON's are small (I think this bug is with MIUI as it is the case with whitecookie too).

2.. Some of the applications menu's / options are dark, hence it is not visible.

3. No problems as such with WIFI and need to test data diconnect

4. Screen off /on animation is working

5. Trackid record is not working

6. Fun and downloads is not working

7. Type to search widget FC!

8. When phone rings, there is a few sec's delay before the call is shown! (Happening with 1.10.8 MIUI)

9. FC when new message pops up!

more i test it and will report!

Bloodbath at the House of Death - very funny with Kenny Everett and Vincent Price, sort of in the English version of the Airplane/Police Squad style from the early 80's.

A New Hope on bluray aka "How that hack Lucas can screw things up even more". Seriously someone needs to buy the rights off him and remove the crap he's added, remake the prequels so they actually fit with the series, and make Timothy Zahn's trilogy as eps 7-9.

Danielle picked up a 6 film Bond box set on bluray from hmv today for the bargain price of £22 saving about £90! So we'll probably watch Dr No tonight.

Just had a look on IMDb. It's got my doppelganger, Brad Pitt, in it! :p I know i'll get slammed for this, but i've liked every film he's been in and i do actually rate him quite highly! *Dons flame proof suit

I was watching the new BR Star Wars releases last week. There are scenes in A New Hope for instance, that are gritty and untouched, the way you'd expect an old print to look that then transition to a cleaned up, CGI enhanced frame and it's completely jarring! I'd like a BR release of the Theatrical versions myself.

At least the DTS audio is a good addition.

I saw them in concert so he gets a free pass for that :p

If not, go for some classics like "The Warriors" any of the Dirty Harry movies or the original "Assault on Precinct 13"....

Yeah you've seen em before but hey....

The lives of others looks good. Going to check it out..

I should probably add that as a massive movie fan i've probably seen most of what there is to see. At least among the better films anyway, although apart from some Guillermo Del Toro films i don't often do foreign language. City of God was awesome though, as was Das Boot.

I've done the IMDb top 250 as it stands now, which is where i've always gone for inspiration before:

I think the industry is lacking in truly visionary directors these days. Once Scorsese hangs up his hat we'll have none of the old greats left! :(

Edit: Just seen a trailer for 'Killer Elite'. Probably nothing more that a good action flick, but look at the cast: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1448755/

Yvonne Strahovski, (the butt-kicking blonde in 'Chuck'), oh and Robert De Niro, Clive Owen and Jason Statham. :eek:

James Bond in HD. Hmm, sounds interesting! Cheese aside, they had their moments...not to mention the likes of Britt Eckland and, as you mentioned, Jane Fonda. The only movies that had a better collection of lead female stars were Hitchcocks own films!

I liked it. Films like that with atmosphere, (pardon the pun), and subtlety are few and far between these days. Reminds me of Kubricks classic, 2001 A Space Odyssey. (Although not as monumental). Another pun...sorry :D

Ok, it's a monolith, but monument is close enough!

Just finished watching Watchmen - The Ultimate Cut. All three and a half hours of it!

Great film, great soundtrack... and as xaccers mentioned, blue emo penis!

I'm no expert, but that's the way to do a comic book movie. Very graphic, very stylish and very submersive. There were elements to it that remind me of other films - the dystopia of V for Vendetta, or the action sequences and cinematic quality of 300 and Sin City.

Perhaps i'd have enjoyed it less, and been more critical of it, if i'd been a fan of the book before watching this...but going into it with no preconceptions made it a pleasant surprise!

I (personally) think that it's very bad humo(u)r, and it's maybe something i would enjoy when i was a teen, but not now when i'm in my middle twenties. I enjoy intelligent humo(u)r and not "I kicked you in the groin, and now you're crying!" OK, that can be funny if it's properly timed, but i think Meet The Spartans is a bad movie that tries to be funny, but fails miserably IMO. It's as bad as Disaster Movie.

Movies, music and everything else is a subjective thing, so if i don't like a movie it doesn't mean that it is a bad movie. But in this case, yeah it's a bad movie :p Maybe somewhat entertaining, but not good.

Yeah I'd say terrifying for me. They dig into your fears or what could really happen.

Home Invasion and murder, although this is a little different.. I'm technically talking about V/H/S.

Spoiler content hidden.

That just shook my fear, I honestly was terrified and couldn't sleep well for about a week. I kept thinking what if someone breaks in.

But this is kinda where Sinister plays its role too. While I didn't watch the entire film I'm sure it was an entity they played off of. But its a creature or entity that broke into the home and murdered 5 families a each differently.

Spoiler content hidden.

That type of stuff cuts straight to my fear, because its real and it can happen.

Savages is actually pretty good. Was quite surprised with how it turned out and the hate it received.

Somewhat. 1979.

I'd recommend watching the theatrical release rather than the directors cut if you plan to see it. The latter doesn't really add anything interesting to the film and just makes it a bit drawn out imo. Otherwise, it's an immersive and atmospheric journey that you shouldn't miss.
