Op and twitter both say this has 4.0 framework
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
I can't even get the theme application to open. It goes to a black screen and freezes then force closes. Any ideas how to fix that?

**Edit**

fixed this by going to the application manager/all apps/changed it to compatible mode and it opens and runs fine now. Themes seem to all work as well.
[Motorola Droid X2] Jubomime:
I would wipe and reboot first. Haven't had that problem tho.
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
It was doing it from the start right after a wipe. I fixed it though by changing something in the app manager to compatible mode or something.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
My bad. Didn't know it was. I stand corrected. Damn...there goes my theory ...guess I don't know everything lol

Decided to take the plunge and try this BETA. HBOgo does not work, even over wifi. I'm getting 'video cannot be played' notifications. Kind of a deal breaker for me (given it goes unrepaired). I will run this for the next couple days with hopes an update will pop up soon and make this ROM as awesome as it can be.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
aceoyame has been hard at work fixing the video and sound/game problem that has been reported. No ETA yet, but know that he is working on it.

Keep up the great work, aceoyame!
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
Just noticed that the top bar battery doesn't work either.
[Motorola Droid X2] Jubomime:
Mine does..
[Motorola Droid X2] phoenix2217:
Easiest way to get top bar to work is

1) Change to top bar in settings

2) Go to the MIUI control panel app

3) Change the color of the top bar under color settings

4) Go back to Battery settings and click "Show battery" off and then on

Then it should show up.

FYI For everyone

If you see Android System using quite a bit of battery (like on mine) you can use TiBU to freeze the app called "Telocation Provider". AFAIK this has something to do with the Chinese ROM and will not affect us or do anything good for us except drain battery. We use to disable it on my Captivate and Inspire.

Also, apparently there is a wake lock issue and thats why Android OS is using 50% CPU on my phone lol.
[Motorola Droid X2] samari71:
is this good enough to use as a daily rom
[Motorola Droid X2] phoenix2217:
I'm using it. Network seems stable. Calls work just fine. Music works as well as the MIUI equalizer.

if you watch a lot of videos or play lots of games you should probably wait for the next Beta.
[Motorola Droid X2] Srambo217:
Another possible bug:

Every time I plug my phone into my computer at the lockscreen it freezes and I am unable to access my memory card. I'll have to pull the battery, unlock the phone, than plug it in for it worked.
[Motorola Droid X2] LexRockhard:
Does this ROM get recognized by apps as being 4.0?
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
I am. If you don't play games you should be good.
[Motorola Droid X2] DaveRichardson:
I'm getting this, too.
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
Worked great, thanks!
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Does this ROM have a problem with speach to text? I tried using the mic on the keyboard I'm using and it won't load to the part so I can start talking.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Another bug I came across. I tried setting a ringtone with an mp3 I always use. When I get a call, the ringtone doesnt play. The phone just vibrates. But when I have someone call me who has a ringtone set for them, the ringtone plays fine.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Oh and the android os percentage is high like cm7 was
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Wasn't sure if you tweeted this to ace, but I went ahead and did. Here is his reply
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I don't have twitter so thank you. I saw that he posted something about wakelock a while ago. I didn't know what that meant though.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Wakelock is logic in the android system that allows a program to inform the system that it requires the device to stay on. Basically, you ask for the lock, but you are to release it once you are finished so that the system can attempt to go back to sleep.

In this case, apparently there is a stray process or app within MIUI that is NOT cleaning up after itself very well, hence the amount of usage you are seeing and possibly, bad battery life (or at least, it could be better).

That's basically what the wakelock is for.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I noticed something else weird last night. I know I'm just posting like crazy here, lol. I applied a lockscreen that wasn't the right resolution and wouldn't let me unlock my phone. I couldn't get into it at all. This isn't my complaint or anything. My observation was that when it was locked, I was pressing/holding everything just to see if I can get in. Well eventually I pressed and held the home button and the torch app opened and the LED light came on. When I released it, it went off and went back to the lock screen. Tapping the home button turned on the LED, but didn't open the app and tapping it again turned it off. I dont know what I did or why that happened. Well I had to do a factory reset to get into my phone so I lost all my settings and everything. Is there a setting for what I described?

EDIT: I just figured this out. The screen has to actually be on. Duh, lol. When the lockscreen is visible, you can hold the home button and turn on the torch LED light. Cool feature.
[Motorola Droid X2] phoenix2217:
The way to unlock your device if that happens is to press the UP volume and back button at the same time. Hold it for 1-2 seconds and let go. The device will unlock.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Thanks. I just tried that though and it didnt work.
[Motorola Droid X2] phoenix2217:
Make sure the screen is on.

1) Press power button so screen is on

2) Press UP VOLUME button and back button at same time

3) Hold for 2-3 seconds

4) Let go and device will unlock

This has to work as it's built into the Android OS. If it dosen't I'm not sure then.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Still nothing. Are you using MIUI? Maybe MIUI took that out.
[Motorola Droid X2] phoenix2217:
Yes, I am using MIUI. Are you using the back button on the bottom of the device near home? Make sure its volume UP and the hard back button.

*EDIT*

Try it once or twice in sucession. Try holding it for 4-5 seconds instead. It's a bit tricky to do but it works.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Ok. I'll keep trying for future reference. Thanks

Also, does anyone have the LatinIME.apk file for this rom. I made the mistake of replacing it and now the keyboard is gone. Even third party keyboards are unusable. And I'm at work. :(

EDIT: Nevermind. I just forgot to change permissions. :)
[Motorola Droid X2] MrWilliams2:
I was in the same situation and I can confirm that this works. Nice tip Pheonix!
[Motorola Droid X2] ForevermanRGPC:
That Torch shortcut is pretty sweet. Never knew, been using it awhile.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Just wanted to say that the "Seamless Dark White" theme along with "BackToBlack" icons is pretty nice. Just dont use the lock screen. lol

EDIT: In case anyone is interested in the icons:

Most of the games I play still run (Worms, Sentinel) but the sound doesn't work. That's not a big issue for me because I usually turn my phone down all the way when I play games anyways.

I would suggest anyone curious about this ROM to go ahead and give it a go, just know that it is kind of buggy but it isn't unusable. The kinks should be worked out in a timely manner and you could use this short period to familiarize yourself with MIUI if you haven't used it in the past (the launcher, messenger, browser, ext).

Seems like some people here and completely new to MIUI, here are a few little tricks you can do with this ROM. Most that I have tried work (screenshot just reboots my device). These seem a little goofy, but trust me, you'll miss them should you choose to leave MIUI ;)

[Motorola Droid X2] phoenix2217:
I hope this gets updated soon. There are some decent bugs the more I use it. The phone soft reboots sometimes, wifi shuts off with the screen even though I switched to never in settings, app force closes, sound issues as clearly noted, video issues, wake lock issue, android system using a lot of battery, etc. I'm not trying to shy people away. I love miui and was waiting for this release. I'm just posting bugs I've seen.
[Motorola Droid X2] jeremy46er:
Wow first time using miui... ever. I must say I had my doubts after using cm7, but so far it seems real nice. Thanks Ace and all others whose work went into this.

I have a nice set of nandroids now, all 2.3.4.

[Motorola Droid X2] chrislewissd:
I hear you on some of those bugs, but the battery getting burned out quickly seems weird to me. I am going on 12 hours of decent usage and still at 66%

by decent usage i mean: downloaded some themes and apps, streaming music for 45+ min, texting, calling, wifi on (when it works), auto sync on, and more.

Have you tried using battery calibration? its a free app in the market and i use it every time i flash a new rom and it seems to have helped any issues with my phone.
[Motorola Droid X2] DaveRichardson:
For those of you guys not watching Ace's twitter like a hawk,

"Expect next beta around Tuesday or wed. My working setup before I bricked is on my work computer."
[Motorola Droid X2] krusir:
Finally we have working MIUI for D2, appriciate OP and Dev's work and time.

Thinks I used often all working except minor minor wifi issue. It won't re-connect after wake up. I have to do OFF/ON in setting page to make it re-connect. Hope we will have fix in next beta.
[Motorola Droid X2] Jlewis894:
lovin it so far, but how the heck do i get to my music on internal sd in the music player? my music just isnt showing up, in fact in file explorer i cant even figure out how to get to the internal sd or root directories......thanks

[Motorola Droid X2] samari71:
can anyone tell me how to fix the problem the process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly please try again
[Motorola Droid X2] andyw123:
love it

I gotta say also, I was a little like "ehh.. why do I need another rom, I already have cm7". But I went for it, had a few issues installing, but it was my fault for trying to hurry. But now I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

Don't know why, but the screen seems crisper and brighter, I don't really notice any issues with it that I don't like, had to customize some things, but that is expected of course.

Very nice work. If I decide to keep my dx2 then I am probably going to stick with this rom, not that cm7 was bad or anything, because it was also very good, I just really like the look and feel of this one.

Next step, cross fingers hoping that someone figures out how to unlock the stupid bootloader thing because the only problem I currently have STILL is no 3g/data at all, not even 1g. I have tried everything, but as far as I can tell, until we get a unlocked bootloader, I can't even begin to find out how to fix it.

I think my problem however stems from the fact that I purchased the phone off cl (ya, I know... bad idea) for a very good price, and activated it on Alltel. I think the phone has a bad esn with verizon, as alltel doesn't seem to check where I live. But, since alltel uses verizons data network, it is probably blocked somehow.

Tried the whole update the prl, no luck, tried everything. So, if anyone has any ideas, please let me know!!
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
Pretty sure only Verizon phones will work on Verizon. Something about cdma or something. I could be totally wrong though.
[Motorola Droid X2] andyw123:
Actually, Verizon ownes most of Alltel now after a buyout. I have used many phones with Verizon, and usually no problems until now.

AT&T ownes another part of Alltel i believe, not 100% sure about that one though. But looking at my wifes phone, which is an Alltel Milestone X, it does show that the data is directed at Verizon. So, I am def on Verizon's data, even though I am still using Alltel. So, unless I can find a quick way around this, I have to either find a way to resolve the problem about a possible bad ESN (change the esn to a known good esn? which is very illegal I guess?), or find out why my phone isn't connecting to Verizon's network, which is even more difficult, or find out why it has a bad esn and resolve that matter (unpaid account?) OR just give up and revert to a good phone for my data.

Problem is, I love the Qhd display or whatever it is called of the dx2, and the screen size, but my only "fall back" phone is the desire, which works fine, but it is def not the dx2. Alltel now offers the "milestone x2" on their webpage, but for a crazy amount of money WITH an account renewall, which I can't do until August of this year, so not going to work.

So, only remaining question is, can I flash LEGALLY my esn to my esn of my desire, if I discard my desire phone? AND/OR is there another way around the bad ESN possible problem?
[Motorola Droid X2] Srambo217:
I'd suggest moving them to your external SD or just upping them to Google Music. I've actually moved about 16GBs of music from my 32GB card to Google Music and despite a couple hiccups here and there I am very happy I did. Plus you can install/sign into Google Music on up to 10 devices. Love having access to a lot of my music on my Nook, PC, Wife's iPhone, ext.
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
Have you even asked alltell? That work have been the first thing I would have done. Ask them why your x2 won't connect.
[Motorola Droid X2] andyw123:
Oh, such a long story. But yes I have. First alltel that I got too "tried" to get the phone to work. He told me it wouldn't work, so I left and discovered my old phone (the htc desire) didn't work no more, voice or data. So I stopped at an actual corporate store, explained the problem to them. They looked at my dx2, pushed a couple buttons on their computer screen and all of a sudden my voice worked. So, thinking it was all good, I left. Then I called alltel once I realized my data worked and they told me that there was a problem with the phone, I needed to purchase a new one from them. Of course, I didn't do that, and as of now, I am at the same boat. No data at all. Wireless works of course, and voice and regular sms, but that is it. No MMS, no 3g/data, no 1g/data, no data at all.

Welp, I seem to have run into a HUGE problem. My phone was on the charger, because it had died on me, so of course I am gonna charge up, I was on a 30 minute long phone call, using a BT headset, and I went to go check my text, and the phone was so hot that it burned my hand. Maybe init running the phone hard after it dies, maybe something with BT, IDK. But, it was enough to push me back over to CM7.

Let it sit for an hour and the msg hasn't gone away nor can I access my internal memory card. Es task managers SD card analyzer still sees its there and how much free space, but nothing else recognizes it. Any1 have this issue? I think the settings in rom toolbox may be the culprit but unsure...

Edit... if any1 else has this problem all u have to do is reflash miui and wipe big 3 so be sure to backup everything to ur SD card first

[Motorola Droid X2] DaveRichardson:
Getting an interesting glitch in Google Maps. Anyone else getting this:

The compass works perfectly in every other app (MIUI compass, GPS Status, Navfreem etc), but somehow in Google Maps, it switches east and west? Which is bizarre, because it knows when my phone is pointing north and when it's pointing south.

If I'm facing west, the phone says east, and if I'm looking east, the phone says west. Basically, it seems to think a compass rose goes "North, west, south, east"

Is there a firewall built into this ROM that denies apps that you choose to access the internet? Like the app droidwall does. I see there's one for phone çalls and SMS but I don't see anything about blocking apps from using the internet. I thought there was but I don't know.
[Motorola Droid X2] Epicardium:
Yes, look for the program called 'Monitor'. There is a firewall tab at the top. Works very well, but I've found that the first time you turn it on and set it up you should reboot for it to take effect. After that, any changes you make seem to take place on the fly. I stopped using Droidwall when I was on MIUI with other devices.

Im sure ace is fully capable of handling it. It seems he's just been waiting for some files and stuff from other devs, including dragonzkiller. Plus I dont think dragonzkiller is willing to take on another project on top of CM9. From what I hear hes a student and pretty busy.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Wow, have you ever had to do something like what Ace has been doing? He DOES have a full-time job and is married, so he's doing this on his own time in addition to balancing a work load and marriage.

ACE is having to take MIUI code and get it working on a device it wasn't written for specifically. In the case of what he was having issues with, it's not open-source. Apparently, the MIUI team owns it and doesn't release the source, so he is at their mercy right now. And, with this not being an official MIUI release (just like CM7 isn't an official Cyanogenmod release), Ace has to rely on others to help out and not the MIUI team. It's not like he HASN'T been working hard at this.

Seems a little ungrateful and it's that attitude that has caused other developers to leave XDA and not develop for Android phones.

I can understand if you paid him to deliver you something, but considering he's doing this and not charging us a penny for it (only asking for donations), could we show him some more respect?

Let's instead be grateful and thankful that he even got us a very functional and sustainable MIUI build.

Not trying to belittle you or anything, but the post just came across wrong. If you meant no harm by it, then I apologize, but I've seen too many developers scared away when people make comments like what you just did.
[Motorola Droid X2] Ki1lACrAcK:
