Still lagy and slowly launcher. Lagy open folder. I try diferent kernel and oc, but there is no diferent. Back to aokp milestone 5.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tnicko:
How is moving icons around on the homescreens? It was pretty painful in the last version. I struggled to get everything into a single folder becasue it kept pushing icons around.

Can you sort the icons in a folder? Like by name, date, etc? I didn't see that option before.

I'm guessing folks are using stock kernel?

Didn't see this reply before mine :o I was getting my hopes up too lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
I'm using franco nightly 156. It was easy to organize everything into folders especially if you long press an empty spot on the home screen and do it that way. There isn't an option to sort items in the folder that I know of here.

I don't know what people consider "laggy" but ever since i flashed the rom,I've been running franco kernel and everything works just as miui has in any other device I've used. Lag? Whatever... It's fine here. I mean there's an animation when you open folders and maybe that's what people are calling lag. I came from aokp m5 and I'm perfectly fine with the speed and smoothness. Everyone is different. I'm having a hard time going back to aokp after having miui on this device. I love the options. Again, it's all personal preference, but I don't believe there is any huge performance issue at all.

Btw it looks great with the inverted gapps. Super clean
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shtsh:
Please run antutu benchmark of 2D and 3D perfomance and post results here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rico13:
the lag is not as bad as before but still not as smooth as aokp/liquidsmooth
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
Benchmarks mean nothing to me. I never run them. It's all about the overall experience. I would just mastoid and give it a go and if you don't like, you have your backup.

Here's your scores anyhow. Franco nightly 156. 1st is stock setup with live wallpaper running and 75 apps installed. Second is fully overclocked on performance gov. I'm telling you with this being my 7th android device, benchmarks have never directly corresponded with good user experience.

Enjoy
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheSobadef:
Just use a standard ICS launcher like Apex; the MIUI one doesn't use hardware acceleration
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meminiau:
I installed the latest as soon as it hit. Have since gone back to Liquid ROM, but was pleasantly surprised with the increased usability of the ROM. Still laggy for me, even using Franko's kernel using the On Demand governor, but since going back to Liquid I am using Performance governor even on that coz I HATE any lag! lol

I am backing up the phone right now and may give MIUI another go using the performance governor.I really do like the whole interface, but can't deal with lag.

It is certainly improving :-)

EDIT- looks like when I last ran this, it was the most recent, but since then there is a new version, 2.5.4. Downloading it now :-) Will then install and run it using Franko's latest kernel with the Performance governor and post back how things look to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meminiau:
Nice!..... Heaps nicer than the previous version.

I may end up swapping to this for a bit longer than usual for me, but can someone tell me why I can't have the phone backup my pics and videos to my google account? There seems to be that option missing from the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MechanicalMind:
you can just sideload the Android gallery app from the standard gapps package and run both gallery apps ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aftab565:
Its smooth and lag free ...

I just changed two things ..

1. Untick icon shadow in launcher setting.

2. Transition effect set to cube .

I find it smooth with miui launcher ..:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
MUCH BETTER! I didn't think it was too bad, but after unticking icon shadows, it flies! Cube is nice and classic with no overshoot is buttery smooth for me as well, and most definitely the miui launcher is the reason I even run miui. It's a full experience thing for me. Gotta be all of nothing. If I want to use apex launcher or whatever, I'll just stick to aokp. If I want miui feel I run miui, not just the launcher. That's just me though. I mean I know aokp has Nova as an option, but Apex, Nova, and stock ics are all one in the same.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] punjabi_xtasy:
I know this isnt a place to ask but when I switch to this rom, how can I make sure my data (music, pictures, files, etc) dont get deleted? if someone can send me a link to a guide or explain it ill appreciate it thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
Your pictures will never get deleted when you flash a new rom. What will be deleted are things like sms,mms, and call logs. Everything else data wise that you've mentioned is safe.

Make sure you follow the advice to uncheck icon shadows in the launcher settings for a smoother experience. It is like night and day.

Seriously, people are totally missing out if they haven't given this rom a go. It doesn't bother me though, it makes it more exclusive. Haha not really it is just great to see miui alive and well. I've always loved it since tdj's DARKSIDE builds for htc glacier. What a pleasant surprise this has turned out to be!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jdiddy_ub:
not much info in the OP...is miui bugfree now?

if not, can anyone please post the known bugs in the latest version?

i was a big fan of MIUI on my old vibrant...it was sooo awesome...was waiting for it on my SG2 and it never happened...would be sweet to load it on my nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
If you flash the right gapps, and turn off icon shadows, you are in for the best miui you've ever had. Themes aren't fully developed for ics yet, but damn it's good. Wifitether beta app works great but built in hotspot doesn't. I mean don't get me wrong, I love AOKP, but this rom is nice. I haven't found many other bugs to speak of. You'd have to try to see but it is really worth your time.

the UI for miui is so nice i miss it

which gApps is the "right" one? can i use the 4.29 one from aokp?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
I used the "fixed" one from the paranoid android thread. That put gtalk in there for me and the contacts issues I was having are gone. I should've been more specific. My bad. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MechanicalMind:
There are MIUI-a-fied gapps on the goo.im hosting site, along with the miui.us builds ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
Nice. That's good to know! I actually dig the inverted gapps from rootzwiki. I got all but the market, talk, and email to work right. Not bad though. I originally flashed inverted gapps off the bat with this rom, and I had no gtalk (wouldn't install), market purchasing issues, and contacts problems. I then flashed the "fixed" gapps from paranoid android and then individually pushed the inverted gapps. Probably a better way to do it, but I'm enjoying the hell out of this rom. Brings back memories. It is actually really snappy and highly functional.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphaola:
theirs a bug of white on white background when I try to search in google play, cant see what am typing or is it just me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MechanicalMind:
Nice, have you got a link to the inverted gapps? I've been using inverted

Gmail app for a while and always copy it in to my system folder after flashing a ROM. Works great on MIUI. And I have to agree with you there, really does bring back memories when I used to use it on the Desire - this ROM is almost up there with those features and stability

Are you using a theme? Mine is white on white also but I use a theme and can't remember what it was like before
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphaola:
it was like that before the theme and the same after the theme.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
Yeah that's a bug with the rom. It's there for me too.

Here's a link to the inverted gapps thread over @ rootzwiki

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matteventu:
How good is MIUI now compared in smoothness and stability to the CyanogenMod ??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monk4Life:
I am on 2.5.4 and don't have any lag. You have disable icon shadows and make sure classic is used for transitions. Once you do that and let your rom settle for about 10-15 minutes it flies. I have been steering clear of MIUI v4 but this version is working great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monk4Life:
This is the only annoying issue I have found.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mert2go:
Just tried miui 2.5.11 for a few minutes. The launcher is with disabled iconshodows still lagish. I was running Franco kernel. Everything else is very smooth but the main problem us that the grafics are not fully optimized for our resolution.

Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monk4Life:
That's weird I don't have that issue and everything is optimized for the Galaxy Nexus. Did you give MIUI time to settle because a few minutes isn't enough. I am using the stock kernel provided in the rom also and I do not see any lag and came from AOKP M5.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathanhuerta4:
Open up a 3D extensive game (preferably TapSonic) and tell me it doesn't lag...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Monk4Life:
Sorry its weird but I don't have this issue. I have played asphalt 6, need for speed and chaos and there isn't any lag. I don't know why you are experiencing this because I seriously have not found a major issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SteelToast:
I agree with you in that Temple Run keeps stuttering a bit with this ROM, but with AOKP, its lag free and runs like the version on a particular fruit phone.

That being said however, this ROM's customization features are second to none, its features are also something I find intuitive, (e.g. double tap lock icon in the Lock Screen to load up music controls). There is a ton of great features on this ROM which I love, and this ROM's most favorable attribute would be it's non-AOSP look for our GNexus'. Really appreciate the amount of work put into this ROM, just waiting for this to have good 3D performance, and it's definitely my daily :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
I'm digging it for sure. Gotta love the possibilities.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Idk if anyone else has this problem when I open up recent apps ans scroll there are aome major glitches its like the left side of the screen is good and the right side is 2 steps behind

Edit: this doesn't always happen, Idk I am running fracos m3 ondemand at 1,3 GHz.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
first of all i prefer flashing dirty when only small updates are done because to be honest i dont want to start from the beginning every week.

and well since that my phone is running in german then there will be no need for the us version i guess

It's all personal preference but between titanium and miui backups, it's easy breezy... not like I've never done it in my life. I've just gotten so efficient at my full set up it takes less than 15 min including making a nandroid beforehand. Only difference could possibly be found in the tweaks etc... I doubt they're much different.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
There is an app in the "tools" folder called "Backup" it will backup everything. I mean desktop layout, permissions, accounts, apps, call log, mms, sms, contacts... you name it, that app backs it up and restores it all in a matter of just a cpl seconds (if you don't backup apps) to a few minutes (if you do backup apps). You're pretty new to miui I'm guessing?

Btw on a bug related note.... no video chat will broadcast audio on the speaker, instead it comes thru the earpiece no matter what. Unfortunately I can't deal with that since I use tango and gtalk and g+ hangouts quite a bit. I still dig this rom. We'll give it a go next week too.

My thoughts on the latest MIUI for Gnex.

Used it as my daily driver on my old HD2 but this is the 1st build i have tried on the Nexus. Love MIUI especially the brilliant theme options, see this thread for some amazing ideas: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=990233&page=1869

I would say this build is *almost* good enough to be used 100% of the time.

It lags. Not hugely but enough to detract slightly, the theme manager (which imo is the one of the biggest pulls for MIUI for me) is not there 100% yet.

Once the slight lag and theme manager works 100% I will use the rom full time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pearse:
Sorry for the noob question but is there a way to remove the chinese characters on the 4-way lockscreen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
Sure is... Use a different lockscreen. There are literally thousands to choose from.

Start your search here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1288096

Download the .mtz file and move it to /sdcard/MIUI/theme folder and apply it from within the "Themes" app on the your hoimescreen. Tap where it says "Mix" and you can choose from you lockscreen options. There are tons of themes for miui. Not too many for v4 just yet, but there will be.

Hey Raycaster,

I know this isnt the place to post but since you were talking about backing up data etc etc. and you seem to know alot i had a quick question for you if you could help me out.

1.) How would I use titanium backup to back-up my data (sms, call logs, etc etc) so i could restore them onto ANY rom i flash?

I have the pro version purchased.

and

2.)since everything is deleted when i flash a new rom, how would i go about to restore all the data saved?

and LASTLY (sorry for so many questions) but

3.) what is the exact proper way to flash a new rom ANY ROM? do you wipe system, factory reset, or what?

thanks for your time my dude
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I'll help you out if it's okay.

First of all if you are on miui then forget titanium backup. Use miui's backup its absolutely amazing.

And I always flash factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik wipe, and then the new rom

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dangerdan:
Reboot I'm pretty sure
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Well that won't help. As it seems at the moment its not possible to theme everything because v4 is new. We with ics miui will have to wait. Out themes aren't as good as the GB ones.

Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raycaster3:
Like I was saying before, not all themes are fully functional on MIUI v4. You should specifically search for MIUIv4 themes if you want the status bar etc. themed.

Backing up...

With TB (and you should use this or a similar app like Rom Toolbox no matter what type of rom you'll be using) You hit menu, batch, Backup all user apps.

***MIUI is unique in that it has its own very effective Backup app, but it doesn't transfer to other roms, so you still need TB or similar if you want to back up your apps.

For SMS use SMS backup from the market.

How I flash.

1. Backup all apps with TB

2. Backup SMS using SMS Backup and restore (sometimes)

3. Reboot recovery

4. Make a nandroid

5. Wipe Dalvik and Cache

6. Wipe Data/Factory Reset

7. Flash rom

8. Reboot

9. Install TB from market after signing in to Google etc.

10. Restore all my apps and set up my home screens.

11. NEVER restore system data

I follow this EVERY single time I flash and have done it across at least 15 different devices ( I hook a lot of people up) and it always works for me.

I NEVER flash over (dirty flash) a preceding rom. I want my experience to be free of any conflict between previous and update. Some people say it doesn't matter, but I learned from the DARKSIDE Master TDJ that if you don't full wipe, you don't have the right to report bugs. Simple as that. I agree. Full Wipe for me NO MATTER WHAT. It only takes me about 12 minutes to totally have my device set up and running 92 user apps. So....If I can do it anyone can. We all have 12 minutes for a bug-free(well if the rom is that good) experience.

Hope that helped.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] punjabi_xtasy:
wow thanks ALOT man! appreciate the detailed steps.
