Will the Qcom adreno libs be used in this rom soon? Pretty much the only complaint I have with this rom is that it's pretty slow in the graphics department.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Will try to incorporate the libs in next weeks build.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Guys I've tried to port miui-us build 2.3.16 for nexus one to our device but it had graphical glitches and was very slow. Also there were problem with superuser permissions, so I decided not to release it.

Looking forward to the next weeks build, but this build had a beautiful lockscreen.

Also there were chinese here and there.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] masterismos:
can we have a link or a photo of lockscreen?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wez89:
Nice I'm glad this isn't just forgotten about, patiently awaiting a new build. I appreciate your effects in keeping this alive, thank you very much (:

Also can't wait for the next build! :)

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] v1r0x:
Thanks for your port and work :)

It's a pity that HTC/MIUI will not release a v4 for the device...

I got some bugs like freezes and reboots, but I don't know if its from v4, your port or my phone.

I'm really excited about the next release.

Keep up the good work :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wez89:
The freezes are most likely a mixture of ICS not supported for our device and the fact MIUI V4 is still beta, although if you are OC'd this could be the main cause of freezes and reboots (:

Quick question aj, are you going to be using the nexus build as a base or waiting for lenny? im just skeptic that lenny might not be updating for some time now, i do like MIUI_AU and the customizations but if im honest id most likely prefer stock so the nexus option would be the best, if its not too much work obviously (:

Regards, Wez
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
Tried that port already but it was very laggy. Also the translation were not complete in control app and I think security app, everything was chinese.

Homescreen transition was laggy and the biggest problem was that the screen went messed up, i.e. when you open up the messaging app and click on any blank area to type, instead of keyboard appearing at the bottom, whole screen got jummbled up with randomkeys and glitches.

The glitches were too much that I decided not to release it and wait for next weeks build.

You can see peple reviews in Desire S forum of proxuser port.

Also I have 3 projects on my hand:

MIUI v4

IceZSense

and I'm also trying to work with snowokami on Lord's ICS port to desire Z.

So, I'm a bit short of time. Also desire Z is only hw kepboard phone out there so porting process is a bit tedious and not so easy.

Proxuser has written a guide on how to port MIUI to your device at : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1499411

You can try on your own and If you stuck, your can share here with us what you got.

I'm trying to manage with all this but I also have to complete my college work so I'm not able to introduce a lot of tweaks and things don't seem to work the easier way.

Hope you understand.... :)

If any of you with some knowledge of roms are willing to help me with the port, I would be happy to hear that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wez89:
Is it best to use the desire s port of MIUI then? Obvs if hes updating it?

I have never built a rom before but it seems fairly straight forward, correct me if im wrong but is it a case of

finding an ICS base (found in this forum, specifically for the DesireZ)

Using the lastest MIUI and merging in the system/app and system/framework into the ICS build, overwriting the ICS files.

Changing all the files and build.prop to the correct version as it states by proxuser in the link you provided.

then packaging up the rom

Is there any tool or apps i need or is it just a case of unzipping and zipping the rom and just manually adding and replacing files?

I appreciate your help, hopefully i have understood everything.

Thanks for the help aj (:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] v1r0x:
I've set the max MHz to ~900 and it seems after some reboots/freezes everything works fine.

I would help you, but I've no knowledge about the rom-porting. :(

If I had more knowledge maybe I could help you ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wez89:
Is that on demand or performance, i guess you could try a different OC deamon, you havent messed around with the UV have you?

I ran mine at 1.2ghz ondemand with only the occassional reboot, once every 2 days or so which was fine with me as i couldnt get swap working on ext4 so rebooting refreshed my ram (:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] v1r0x:
I've set it in the Daemon Controller App of the rom. Don't know much about OC and only set it from 1152000 to 921600 but it didn't work...

I don't want a high OC to save some battery
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajhavery:
The new andromadus kernel doesn't seems to boot with MIUI build and Desire S port is from nexus one.

Its way to tricky and sometimes you need to hack into kernel and you need to edit android.policy.jar, framework.jar and framework-res.apk to fix autorotation, autobrightness and sym key on keyboard.

Read a little bit more and then try porting the build. I could provide fix to specific problems but teaching whole rom porting is very difficult.

Just look for guides on xda and ask me if you stuck.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wez89:
Ahh i see, seems alittle bit too much over my head :/ if i had alittle bit of building rom knowledge it wouldnt be too bad but i have zero, thought it might of been as simple as using ICS as the base then following the instructions, using the instructions by proxuser, i have never edited the android.policy.jar before, thanks for the help so far though (:

1. Download T9dialer_for_ICS_4_0_3.zip, and unzip it.

2. (Optional). Make a backup of your old .apk's. In case it's not working. They are found in system\app.

3. Copy the files you just downloaded, and paste them in system\app, overwriting the old ones.

4. Change the permissions of the files that you just pasted in system\app, to: RW-R-R

5. Reboot your phone.

Screenshots?? Source??

It's a bad habit to share stuff like this... noobs get used to it and when you less expect someone starts share hijacked apps. :\

Weird how people complain about random app's permissions, when the android permissions system sucks ass: there are many simple tasks that apps do, but the system requires the app to request almost-full phone access. On the other hand, no-one seems to even question some guy that simply shares a zip and instructs them to flash it through the recovery!!!

Hey guys I am sharing these host files to block ads

**Disclaimer**

**I Take NO Responsibility in bricking your device**

**If there is any connectivity problems, replace the old hosts file**

Needed:

Rooted Device

Root Explorer (Or another file manager that has /system/ directory access)

Attached hosts File

Installation

Step 1: Download and unpack hosts.zip.

Step 1: Copy the hosts file to /system/etc/.

Step 1: Reboot and enjoy.

What it does?

The Hosts file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. This file is loaded into memory at startup, then Android checks the Hosts file before it queries any DNS servers, which enables it to override addresses in the DNS. This prevents access to the listed sites by redirecting any connection attempts back to the local (your) phone. Another feature of the HOSTS file is its ability to block other apps from displaying ads .
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] hasjee:
Or you download/install "adfree" from the market.

My Opinion its the best right know.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrewRoid:
Although it's been out for some time, SGS2 is still one of the best phones on the market. Rooted and you can tweak as much as you like
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zabranjeniples:
Galaxy S2 vs Nexus? If we look at the hardware, I think that GS2 is superior to the nexus. Although it nexus comes with larger screen and higher resolution. If we look at software, ICS is on a Nexus in full glory. While on sgs2, ICS will come with tw, if I am in right.

But, with root access, you can do many things you like.

So, between this two, my favorite is galaxy s2.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opethrocks:
the sgs2 is a really nice device, but samsung is really dragging their feet when it comes to ics updates. if u want a fully working ics rom, might want to buy a galaxy nexus. Also if you are a fan of aosp roms such as cyanogenmod 9, the nexus is the way to go

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
galaxy s2 is a great phone. if you want to mod you better find the i9100 international model with the exynos cpu and mali400 gpu and not any other variant of the same phone.

why? because it has far more support for custom roms and kernels than any other i9100 variat (they are many now T,G,P,M,N. maybe others or less. i think this are right).

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LegendZenify:

Love the Super AMOLED Plus screen too, it's awesome.

Though you might want to consider waiting for the SGS3 or getting the Galaxy Nexus?

But the SGS2 is a good choice for a phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamSparx:
The phone is a joy. I managed to get my partner to upgrade to one, though I have to convice her that letting me flash a non-stock rom on it is a good idea :) As someone who had a programming background, but no real smartphone experience, it's been great, because it's eminently configurable, almost impossible to brick, and I can run my own homegrown apps on it. Highly recommended
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
I shadow most of the comments already made on here. This is surprisingly only my 2nd Android device, DHD was my first, also have a cheap T-Mobile Rapport as a backup.

But this phone rocks, sure like any phone it has it's flaws, so it's better to discuss those than it's pros, my major cons would be - SQ, although acceptable not great, with certain headphones you can hear the frequencies change which has be annoying, don't expect Voodoo sound like the original SGS which had a Wolfson DAC so that sound pretty good (I've got the tab which had Voodoo so clear difference in SQ).

Buggy software, like the stock email app on exchange it has wakelocks which can keep the device awake, this has ben fixed on the CM source but Samsung/Seven seem reluctant to fix this for GB, not sure how the ICS version fares not tried it and wont until we get an official rom.

Notification light, the major thing I miss from the DHD and previous phones like BB, very useful, BLN not as good as it drains battery.

Other than that I'm pretty happy with my device, had it since day 1 after Phones 4 U exclusive finished, an array of custom roms/kernels available to keep you busy for a while.

SGS3 will be announced maybe March 15th but who know's when it's release will be. I say buy it, enjoy it sell it or keep it after new phones from MWC etc are out.

You'll be happy with it.

I went with galaxy s2, rooted it, and absolutely love it! my friend has the nexus but I find it is too big and a little bulky for my liking. the bigger screen is nice but might also drain more battery. You can always go to a local retailer to see them both up close, that's what I did. :)

Yesterday i flashed ics leak for the chinese version of the note. Everything works like a charm! Well, somehow today the keyboard didn't appear on the screen when i wanted to write something and I decided to wipe my phone. Did a full wipe. And the trouble began.

Didn't reboot.

Tried to flash rocket rom 20 via cwm instead, which still works (cwm) but it got stuck at the wipe status. I can't wipe system with cwm. Also i can't load my battery which makes me even more nervous. Tried mobile odin but maybe I'm too stupid or it simply doesn't work because it says something like "can't find device"...

Tried to flash red cwm or chainfires.... didn't work

So if there is someone who can help me... PLEASE!!!!!!

I'm an old hand at flashing Android phones, but just recently moved from my beloved HD2 to Atrix 4G.

Is there a safe way to unlock the BL on this phone? Most of the discussion on this forum deals with previously unlocked 4gs. Since this is not my handset, I thought I'd ask for a second opinion, in case my research led me down a garden path...
