That will come most likely in next release. I plan to put in 1.0, 1.3 and 1.4 in a mix from Joker and Oleg/Peetr. I think choices are great to have. I just wanted to kick this out today, and figured we could make it better once it was released and people weren't waiting on it :)

smooth on gsm... fast drain

GSM works on v4, with CM9 fix.

Bluetooth works for me without apply the other kernel.

Only issues:

1. Fast battery drain

2. Titanium backup stucks restoring backups
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
Thanks yeah going to remove tb next update since the backup app works so great. Best advice for now is try redownloading cause if its not in new market for you it most likely won't work. Can do like th3bill said download it then restore only data... Can also confirm Bluetooth working without any extra effort (thanks joker you are seriously the MAN!) I put the correct miui version in this build also.. can also call confirm v4 needs to be flashed as an update do not need to format but must be on v3 wipe cache and wipe dalvick cache then flash v4 reboot then reboot to recovery wipe dalvick cache fix permission then reboot should be running almost perfect..... huge thank you to all who has been right here in the middle of it all testing these with me esp. V4 since I posted without flashing it myself. Thanks guys y'all are the ham on my bone the meat to my potatoes.... lol

[Motorola Photon 4G] Cythrawl:
I have found the reason titty backup falls on restores is because some of your apps in the market are flagged as incompatible with your device using miui. For example, beautiful widgets, works fine in all other roms, but in this miui, if i restore with tb, freezes. If i search for it in the market, it doesn't show up/not compatible with your current device..

If you uncheck the problem backups, it works just fine

for some reason when i installed apex launcher my phone apk didn't work anymore or wasn't available. im not quiet sure what happened.
[Motorola Photon 4G] s1yder:
For me, GSM working perfect without any fixes. Great! I'm running v4 rom and v4 oleg's kernel.
[Motorola Photon 4G] XCellPhoneSalesRep:
I freeze up in Ti-backup as well during restore, but with Weatherbug Pro and a few others, beautiful widgets NOT being one of them. I usually restore 10 apps + data @ a time and when i get to the apps that i kno freeze up, i restore app only and it's all good...

in the middle of mixing another test (test5) its cm9 .3.3 and alpha2 almost done just making sure all the right apps are in there, charging phone up right now going to be flashing it in about 20min so if all goes well devhost takes around an hour to upload so in about 2 hours as long as it boots and has no issues ill be updating OP just a heads up

Another issue.

On GSM The counter show me how many missed call I have, but in the phone app can't see who calls you neither your recent outgoing calls.

But using at third party phone app, works. So is only with the MIUI stock phone app

Can't nstall what´s app. Can´t find on Market

Question : Flashing oleg kernel could improve the battery drain.

6 hours and have 49 % left (haven't calibrate the battery, Iheard is useless)
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
so far as GSM goes i never use it so any gsm fixes i put into the rom are the ones cm9 users are trying out. so pretty much if you wanting full gsm going to just bare with me cause right now its hit and miss

since this is cm9 AND miui some apps wont be compatible YET as you know everything changes constantly. dev.'s update their apps all the time as well as roms so just hang in there if you cant restore it with your fav. backup app and its not in the market most likely it will not work

i really cant weigh in on battery yet since i have been flashing nonstop with every build but i can give a few tips to help:

turn off auto-brightness and lower it

turn off wifi,gps,bluetooth, and sync when not using it

turn off auto-rotate when not using it

make sure you exit out of programs when available so they dont run in the background

try using themes with darker colors some say the darker the better pulls less battery (opinion not fact so dont flame me here....)

go into apps and set the sync time on your accounts to sync less frequently

so far as the calibrate the battery bit is just my opinion but dont think it would hurt of course when you wipe you are wiping this stat but like i said it couldnt hurt especially if you do alot of flashing/restoring/wiping things can get a little out of wack ( my opinion)

hope some of that helps ya

think i put the wrong usb.apk in test5 can someone confrm this for me if i did ill fix and reup immediately

so instead of waiting i went ahead and replaced and reuped the new file link is already posted and ready to go sorry about that folks

I keep telling myself I'm going to go back to CM9 but I just can't do it. Everything is working so smooth.

Thanks spleef for your work on this!

After switching to apex launcher, didn't like miui, Too much like iOS for me, this ROM is the bomb!
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
yeah to flash5 need to be on 3 or 4 don't format simply wipe cache and dal. cache flash reboot let it boot reboot to recovery wipe dal. cache fix perm. reboot and should be good to go its the exact steps I used I came from 4 to 5 no issues what so ever

[Motorola Photon 4G] olegfusion:
I'm gonna say here some things about it.

turn off auto-brightness and lower it -> should help, but I didn't find any battery difference, but without autobrightness it's little pain at street,

turn off wifi,gps,bluetooth, and sync when not using it -> wifi has less drain than 3g/2g internet. Keep it better.

GPS -> is not using when you don't see the icon in the notification toolbar. I always keep it enabled and see no difference if it's disabled or enabled, but not used.

auto-rotate -> may be, but never tried without it. I like it how it is now and battery seems to be good.

bluetooth -> due small problems of bluetooth itself in idle mode, I recommend to keep it turned off when you're not using it in cm9 only! while new fix for bluetooth, it'll be informed, in the new next rom will be added

all other recommendation is good, but best one will be "do research on software you install and use. delete apps you don't use, expecially antiviruses or other stuff that launches all the time".

I know....download numbers have been pretty dismal too. 300+ 2 releases ago...got maybe 120 this time around. I think we just have a lot more roms to try, and more people are "hopping". LOL
[Motorola Photon 4G] bitbearmi:
Downloads and Themes

I think a lot of people may be trying out Joker's Kitchen Sink installer which makes it even easier to bounce around between ROMs. So a lot of people could still be using what is essentially your build, just not downloading from your repository.

Now on to Themes. OOPS. Well not really oops, I knew it was a risk but I tried to install a theme with the Themes app. Well it kinda-sorta worked, but some elements (in particular, text colors) don't get changed. So white buttons which should have black text are coming up with grey and are unreadable.

I've tried re-flashing, but it won't change the resources back. The boot screen and color scheme don't change, but it does appear the ROM installs properly.

Anyway suggestions on getting back to "normal" without wiping?

Oh, and to all you guys who are working so hard on the Photon ROMs, Installers etc. a big thank you.

..Rob
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Kitchen Sink is a project by Joker along with Spleef and I....LOL We've probably spent a good 60-80 hours working together on it. I'm actually porting the bits for CNA into the Atrix version right now...LOL

As far as the theme...if I read right, you're having issues with it not going back. What you can try is to manually change the parts of the theme in the theme app....go in, and rather than try to reapply the entire "stock" theme at once, select the option to theme the parts (notfication, lockscreen, etc), and select the stock one from each.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bitbearmi:
Thanks Bill! That worked perfectly. The dedication you guys put into these projects are amazing.

2) Youtube

3) Voice Search
