Not going to happen and it's not their fault.

Proper development isn't coming MIUI as it's closed source. If MIUI was open source, we'd have MIUI and a bunch of different flavors of it. Instead we have copies of the same rom with slightly different amounts of crap inside.

Both, MIUIScotland and MIUIAndroid, seen to have huuuuuuuuuuge egos, but the latter one's just ridiculous.

Aokp based miui is ten times snappier then official samsung based miui roms
[Galaxy S II General] adamski123:
Theirs aokp based miui? :0
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
Let's be truthful - MIUI is going open source, little by little. The GB version's code is released as far as I know, and any decent developer would be able to do something with it. Completely agree with your last sentence though. Anyway, open source or not, fighting over who used whose translation is completely ridiculous. MIUI being closed source is an even bigger reason for people to cooperate...

As for MIUIAndroid vs MIUIscotland, MIUIAndroid is completely ridiculous I agree, but let's not forget that MIUI scotland (aka, galnet MIUI, same people without galnet), completely forgot its "Groupies" members who actually gave their time (beta tests) and money (donations), Groupies pretty much don't exist anymore, even though MIUI scotland reopened 2 days later and is releasing new ROMs. So both MIUIAndroid for his clear lack of tact and maturity and MIUIscotland for the aforementioned aren't exactly worthy of praise in my book.

I didn't know that they have opened MIUI partially, but it's certainly nice to hear.

As much as I love CyanogenMod, the MIUI file-explorer is great. Still, it lacks is root-access.

The music-player is a great base for something amazing. I'd strip it off unnecessary features, fix some bugs and re-theme it to integrate with aosp ics....if it was made in c# that is.

Might take the opportunity to learn java, as I heard it's similar to c#.

B2T:

I'd just sit back, relax and see what happens between them.

Let's face it, they won't work together. (At least I wouldn't want to work together with someone like MIUIAndroid)

Best case scenario, they both shut up, forget about each other and go on.

I've heard good things about the roms of both of them and Galnet's version was my favorite back in the days before cm9. Not much better than the official one, but had some less "minor annoyances".

Maybe there'll be some real differences between them in future, so I'll keep an eye on them for sure.
[Galaxy S II General] ArtoD2:
I remember seeing port of it with root + other functions... never bothered with it, since I use Root Explorer...
[Galaxy S II General] TheSniperFan:
Yeah I remember something like this too. Would love to see the music-app sources tho.

[Galaxy S II General] nurkruste:
Heh, it is quite similar but if you already know C# you'll be really annoyed by many of Java's "features" or rather the lack of and the stupid API design (the latter not as much if you focus on Android). I honestly despise Java but because it's still so popular and also necessary to develop for android I guess you have to turn a blind eye.
[Galaxy S II General] TheSniperFan:
Yeah, I already tried to port some c++ and c# applications to java. Syntax is really similar, but some basic stuff like goto's and clearing the console weren't there. :-(

The IDE's were nicer tho. Monodevelop and Sharpdevelop are nicer than Eclipse. Maybe I'll take the time to set Netbeans up.
[Galaxy S II General] ermacwins:
The lag on the lockscreen and homescreen is really annoying. I wonder if this lag is related to lag on temple run...
[Galaxy S II General] nurkruste:
I would really like that to be a joke but it doesn't sound like one :(

B2T: Is it somehow possible to get rid of the remaining chinese symbols on the lockscreen (date & low battery)?
[Galaxy S II General] AshleyTayles:
Reapply the theme :) Or use the velluxium project theme :)
[Galaxy S II General] TheSniperFan:
goto's are fun. Not using them, but asking why not to do so. There is NO good reason to not use them AT ALL. All arguments are basically that in the past the programming languages sucked, because they weren't structured and you had to use goto's for everything. That lead to "spaghetti code".

However, we aren't in the past anymore! Modern programming languages are structured and therefore you don't have to use them all the time anymore. I try to avoid them, as using them too much makes the code a ***** to debug, but it's always good to have at least the option.

Want an example where they are better than restructuring the code? I saw one in the past.

Imagine that you have a loop with a bunch if-statements. Everyone of them is very time-intensive. So returning "true" or "false" takes some time and much processing power. The loop should check 10 times. If only one returns an undesired result, only the code in the end of the loop should be executed.

Add a single label right before the code in the end, that should be executed in every case, and the goto's every time a function fails.

Add them right inside the function, so that even before the function returns the result, the code in the end of the loop is executed, skipping the other if-statements and therefore saving time.

You could also restructure the entire code, add a couple variables and checks here and there.

Despite what all the coding-pro's say, it does NOT make the code simpler to read nor easier to understand IMO.

The sheer lack of the option makes me angry. Besides the example above, I used them frequently to troubleshoot code, by placing temporary goto's and using them in a "what would be if it did not fail there"-manner.

B2T: I think that the MIUI dev's have to do it. If the translators could, they would have already. Don't you think so?
[Galaxy S II General] rustyguy:
Of you want the fully translated lock screen someone on miui android created a theme that fixed it. Pretty simply the "theme" is just the stock lockscreen with translations finished off and you move it into your theme folder.

Secondly for people getting lots of reboots just flash latest Siya. Totally fixed the problem for me. I said this a day or two ago but I know it's tough for people to read through a Page or two before just whining.

If you have an SGS II, I suggest you try ASNET it is based on MIUI v4 2.4.23 and has all patches. Works like a charm.

You should try it.

Started using ASNET and have 0 issues so I'm going to wait this time.

there is few bug feedback thread in miui china forum. but what issues 0413 have,it have too.
[Galaxy S II General] kamz999:
Tried both MIUIAndroid and MIUIScotland's build... equally as bad... and by bad i mean camera not working in both... Music player has been resolved though... sometimes a stray FC pops up here n there...

Feels as if week by week there are more things to worry rather to cherish as far as MIUI is concerned...

No winner still,,,waiting for ASNET and WIUI,,,

Go to settings , developper options , set both options for animation scale to .5x
[Galaxy S II General] rustyguy:
No camera issues whatsoever. I have had a few screen of death instances though. Might be how I messed with the governer settings a bit though.

I flashed wiui and asnet during the week and really didn't see much of a difference. Still kind if miss the speed of Ady's build, may try this new dexter aosp build.
[Galaxy S II General] m2smoe:
The problem (from what I understand anyway) is that nobody has the MIUI v4 source except MIUI china, so basically any other version you try (WIUI, ASNET etc) will be older builds with homemade 'hack fixes', that don't properly patch the source itself. Best bet (unfortunately) is still MIUIAndroid or MIUIscotland.

Personally I use MIUI scotland with Siyah latest kernel for proper battery life (let's face it, stock MIUI kernels are always awful), and it's ok so far.
[Galaxy S II General] pabligeno:

[Galaxy S II General] Juan Kerzhoff:
The theme issue does let it down but i still prefer the whole look of the rom over the rest.. I use Asnet version of MIUI though as it seems faster and smoother :) I have also tried the DX rom which even in its infant stage looks like an miui beater have a look at it oh and the themes work! Would use it always but the graphics are not as sharp so it lets it down a bit.

That's a lot of memo's. Guess the miui note app doesn't support that file. Using an app like Evernote would ensure you always have access to those note files from any type of device with syncing.
