For me it's really better with ICS :D

I'm using Resurection Remix ROM v9.4, make some trick with betterbatterystats ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yungjizzle909:
yes

it is faster if you have a stable ics rom
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The-Hulk:
I would say it's the same for me at the moment, i am using CM9 Codeworkx, but as the rom gets more stable the battery life is getting better. My battery life when using stock Gb was pretty poor anyway.
[Blade Android Development] doc3000:
MIUI v.4 2.2.24 for Blade by doc3000 (beta1)

Let me present you MIUI ROM made by me, allbest on Modaco, aka doc3000 on XDA and DOC2008 on 4pda.

Based on Burstlam's CM9-PRE-RC05.5-BLADE and MIUI 2.2.24 beta

Thanks to Burstlam for his ICS ROM and jahlovePL from XDA for help.

What should work:

- MIUI themes

- Wired headset

- Bluetooth and Wi-Fi

- Music player (FLAC support added)

- GPU acceleration

- SD card

- Google Sync

- Gmail (partly)

- Sound

- Gallery

- Maps (May not work)

- Multi-touch

- Market

- Auto rotation

- Superuser

- Able Overclock

- Telephone Fully works

- GAPPS

- USB storage mode (only via Dual Mount SD Widget - included in the ROM)

- DSP manager

- Default browser

- Built-in file manager

- Video (with MX video player app)

- Camera (You can take pictures, but does not what you're doing!)

What does not work:

- YouTube (app)

- Wi-Fi tethering / mobile hotspot

- Auto brightness doesn't work properly. It's better to disable it.

Issues:

- orange help pop-up disables keyboard in text field

Solution: to make a missed call and tap notification in the expanded status bar - pop-up will no longer appear

INSTALLATION:

• You need at least 200mb system

• Download the ROM

• Copy the ZIP to Memory Card

• Start CWM

• Make a Full Wipe (data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, mount & storage > format /system)

• Start the install

• Boot into the ROM

• Wait 2-3 minutes

• Reboot

• Enjoy!

MIUI THEMES:

ATTENTION: Before using MIUI themes you should create data/system/theme folder with root explorer. The themes for old MIUI are not fully supported. Miui v4 won't theme settings and other system menus unless made for v4.

You can use downloaded on PC themes by copy MTZ files into MIUI/theme on your SD.

[Blade Android Development] Gokh:
I hope you will continue this rom, look very promising :)

[Blade Android Development] karthiknr:
Whoa! Nice!:) Stable and fast. Thank you.:)

Edit: Can i add this to the list of ROM's in the "ICS ROM's by Saaransh" thread?

Don't care about the criticism from some users at Modaco. I see no point in arguing about worthless topics.
[Blade Android Development] karthiknr:
Have been using it for more than 3 hours. The animations and scrolling aren't as smooth as Tilal's MIUI. But the themes and the widgets work properly.:) Even the music widget works. Since its based on Burstlam's 5.5.1 i don't think OpenGL is included.
[Blade Android Development] doc3000:
Yes of course
[Blade Android Development] xyz`1:
Cant wait for you to update the base rom to burstlams 5.6.1 with openGL :D
[Blade Android Development] karthiknr:
I'd rather not actually. Because both the threads are in xda under Android Development. So it'll be as good as a double post. Great ROM. Awaiting updates.:)
[Blade Android Development] doc3000:
Unfortunately MIUI doesn't work on Burstlam's 5.6 and 5.6.1. These ROMs are different from others CM9 ROMs.
[Blade Android Development] DrPaua:
Two questions:

1. Why says the market, I cannot install DB Navigator, Google Goggles and Öffi? I can live without Goggles but not without DB Navigator AND without Öffi. I need at least one of them.

2. How to change the lockscreen to the one in Screenshot 9?

Apart from that I'm excited.

edit: Whatsapp is incompatible either which is "death verdict" no 2....

[Blade Android Development] Rapier07:
That isn't a lockscreen, its the callScreen

@doc

Tried the Rom, works nice and smooth. Less buggy than tilals version but then the bugs depend on the ics base used.

Keep up tha good work.

Bdw I'm using the Chinese devs GB mIuI atm and its just perfect for me :)
[Blade Android Development] NunoFilipeSantos:
Is everything working on the GB version of the MIUI that you're using? Could you please point us to that ROM thread?

@Doc3000.

Are you going to update this and try to make it work on the new 5.6.1 rom by burstlam? Because,on the ICS thread you said it may not work.
[Blade Android Development] Rapier07:
Everything works perfectly. Just the settings menu is like cm7, rest everything miui

Hi, after flashing (full wipe of cache, info, dalvik and battery) the phone restarts but after the orange MIUI logo appears nothing else happens, have left it 20 mins to be sure. Anyone else have this problem/ know how to resolve it?

Many thanks
[Blade Android Development] NunoFilipeSantos:
Thank you! I will try that patch ;)
[Blade Android Development] karthiknr:
Have you checked your partition size and GEN? You're ending up with a bootloop maybe because your system partition size is less.
[Blade Android Development] Sabrezx:
Bloke I bought it from said it was upgraded from GEN1 to GEN2. I am just partitioning the sd with clockwork mod which I'm guessing is wrong, haven't had to do this since my desire, have been running an S2.

Do I have to change the system partition size through adb?

Thanks again for help
[Blade Android Development] karthiknr:
Do one thing. If you're running any rom with terminal,type df-h and check your system partition size. If its 200mb or more,then you have some other problem. If you have less than 200mb then use Wbaw's GEN2 TPT v10 and try this rom again.

EDIT-Just saw your previous post. Did you do wipe data/factory reset and format /system?

I tested this rom yesterday, but i can't get wifi working even after patching of the image..
[Blade Android Development] Rastaman2302:
Have this rom installed for a day now. It looks great (it's miui) but not very smooth.

WiFi is a bit flaky (even with the patch) but besides that everything pretty much works.

Some of my apps don't work but that's because of compatibility issues with ICS.

So far no real complaints, just not that smooth :)
[Blade Android Development] sbasil:
How about making a GB Miui? V4 is seemingly slower even with Huawei Ideos X5 than the old good GB version. :)

[Blade Android Development] avalanchenl:
most apps i got working by just downloading the APK.
[Blade Android Development] Rastaman2302:
that would probably work yes, didn't give it much thought at the time :)

OT: are you going to keep developing this rom doc? If you can fix the Wifi issues and smooth it out a bit this is by far the nicest rom I have seen for the Blade.

Although a GB based MIUI would probably be better for the time being (i.e. until we get proper arm v6 support for ICS) :)
[Blade Android Development] karthiknr:
A GB based Miui rom is already there. Head out to modaco and download miui 2.3.7 by andalululu. I'm using it. Except for a few Chinese text here and there,its the best you get for the moment.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bfollowell:
I rooted my NT and when I go to the apps list in my Go Launcher, I see an app with a little Android icon called NookViewer. If I open it, it doesn't seem to do anything except for blank the screen. The menu icons at the bottom of the screen drop away and the screen turns white. Then my NT just sits there until I click the Home button, after which I'm returned to the Go Launcher apps list.

Does anyone have any idea what this app is or what purpose it serves?

Thanks.

[General Topics] Dillsnik:
Unless of course you want to use it on different networks, ie international.

Carrier phone comes with those fat discounts, so i don't know why anyone would ever PREFER to pay full retail?

Yet people say they prefer to do it.
[General Topics] JustinUhhh:
The unlocked international versions are often available before the US carriers release their modified versions. They also often have higher resale values for people who like to switch phones a lot.
[General Topics] Dillsnik:
ok, i was assuming both versions are available. but higher resale makes some sense, although that alone doesn't add up to not wanting carrier brand.

Maybe less bloatware, faster updates, etc?
[General Topics] nistco92:
Less bloatware is a big part of it, I think, but there are also contractual benefits. It's sometimes easier to cancel a plan without paying a hefty termination fee if you paid for the phone outright. Additionally, certain plans (e.g. T-Mobile's "best plan ever") do not provide subsidies for good phones (e.g. HTC Sensation). Basically, it's a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. You can buy the phone outright and then get a cheaper plan or buy a subsidized phone with a more expensive plan. If you plan on keeping your phone more than 2 years and/or switching carriers, it's a good investment to get the cheaper plan.
[General Topics] JustinUhhh:
I don't even think they have less bloatware, or get faster updates. They can't update their phone until a carrier somewhere releases a build for that phone. Unless they are going off an ASOP build which still requires that devices drivers to be released. I've never had an unlocked phone myself. I assume it would also make it easier to travel internationally, but if the carrier had already released their version of the phone I wouldn't go and buy an unlocked version. :P
[General Topics] wendellc:
I buy unlocked usually because I like to get the hottest devices first and they are usually released overseas before coming to US; Galaxy S2 for example. I am also not on a contract.
[General Topics] jm0990:
If you're talking about new phones, the difference is the 2 yr contract. If you're talking about used phones, the difference is probably about ten bucks (or whatever the cost is to get an unlock code).
[General Topics] newter55:
Unbranded phone=$10 unlimited data on at&t.
[General Topics] thebobp:
Sometimes (subsidized price + contract cost over 2 years) actually costs more, or negligibly less than (unlocked price + equivalent prepaid cost over 2 years). That was the case with me, and it depends mostly on what plans the carrier offers, as well as what promotions happen to be on at the time. When that happens, a contract is just plain not worth it.

Even if it is slightly or somewhat worth it (which is the most it's going to get), that's still 2 years of vendor lockin you have to consider.

And, of course, even the option of using your phone internationally is worth something, even if you have no actual plans of going yet.
[General Topics] s9pa:
The reason people get unlocked phones vary, but most can be classified under these:

- Phones that are not available in a given market

- Update without a two year commitment to a given carrier

- Cheaper to get a used phone on ebay/amazon than a new one from the carrier if you are not due for an upgrade

- Unlocked bootloader, rooted, or bloatware free. -- As most carriers nowdays want their phones locked.

- Possible higher resell value
[General Topics] gmengass:
allows you to use other carrier sim cards. Good if you travel and use different country sim cards on other networks.
[General Topics] bleach168:
The first step is understanding that you don't get a "fat discount" when buying a carrier branded phone. You end up paying more than the full price of the phone in most cases.
[General Topics] Drzfr3shboialex:
They get updates first look at the international phones and compare them to ours. The SG got the update over seas to gingerbread and here in the states it took forever.

sent from my Virtuous Unity :D
[General Topics] mike21pr:
•Unlocked to use anywhere

•More resale value

•No bloatware from carriers

•Faster / more direct updates without needing carrier approval

•Usually more dev support since carriers variants isolate models from one another

•Availability much before carrier versions (mostly, depends on exclusivity)
[General Topics] taktd:
There was a time when carriers would impose restrictions on features which were stock from the manufacturers and threaten them with not buying handsets if they did not implement these restrictions. For example, features like a music player would be locked out in favor of the carrier's music service and music player to help support their store. The phones would be heavily branded and often hardware locked out of even flashing to a different firmware/rom.

If you do a present value of all the payments you will pay to the carrier for the life of the contract + the cost of the "discounted" handset you have to pay today, you will find in many cases the cost ending up greater than buying the unlocked phone outright. I suppose time-value of money plays into it... (but not really with this economy)
[General Topics] acetkbez:
its not too hard to unlock your own phone, also quite a few phones are global phones, the carrier branded ones just don't say that you can use them overseas
[General Topics] 4ktvs:
And they don't put crap in them to kill things. When you are not locked in for 2 years they tend to be more helpful. Unlike the droping 4g LTE big red. I am starting to think most of the AT&T hater's had a 2g iphone and got a droid and now think there is no better than the big red, becuase TV SAID SO 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times.

[General Topics] Archector:
no choice

I live in Venezuela, and if I want to get a decently priced smartphone, my only choice is to buy an unlocked one over amazon or ebay if I cant get some dollars and a courrier service.

For example, you cant get an USED LG Optimus 2X here in my country at 4.500bsF, that's like 500$.

Nowadays, the smartphone market is growing a lot here, taking apart the fact that we have the greatest blackberry users per capita in South America.

Something like that happens in Brasil, Argentina etc.
[General Topics] luftrofl:
Because those "fat discounts" are short term - the discounts are usually lost over the course of the contract you have to sign. You save a few hundred initially but end up paying a few hundred more by the end. I say 'usually' because it's not especially common in the U.S.
