I get maybe a little less battery life on this, but with my use, it still lasts the day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PR0MISE:
Video Issues

This is a very nice ROM however; I seem to be having video playback issues. Everytime a video is chosen, system UI forcecloses and the phone freezes up, have to do a battery pull to reboot. Other than that, nice job !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Anon9mouz:
No problems here how u wipe and also care to explain these video problems like where which app so on to get a better understanding??

I love MIUI but man is this Rom laggy. I've been on it for about 30 minutes. First time since my Incredible and am incredibly disappointed. Ugh, was hoping this was going to be my main rom like the good ol days on the Incredible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
To be fair, it's the launcher, not the rom. Still, there are a few things you can do to improve it, if not fix it.

First, go to launcher options and change transitions to crossfade or no bounce.

Secondly, flash a better kernel. You might need to experiment a little with that.

There will be some occasional lag left over, but it will be significantly improved.

The third option is to replace the launcher altogether. Try Apex.

For what it's worth, I'm with you on the disappointment and waiting for the day when Miui can keep up with the aosp's.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SoCalSpecialist:
add spare parts to that equation and you should be good to go.

its what i do and this is my daily driver..update it every Saturday morning like clockwork
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Heads up for those that want to disable lockscreen, the setting has been moved to developer options labeled "access system directly".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tkuligowski:
When I first installed this ROM the status bar was transparent and now its black and I haven change any themes or anything. I really liked the transparent status bar. How do in get that back or does anyone have a clue why it would change?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Try reapplying the default theme. That should work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jozanich:
Change log in MIUI toolbox says custom navbar order was removed as this is now part of MIUI - does anyone know how to change the order? I can't find a setting in MIUI to do so and having the 'menu' and 'back' keys opposite of what I am used to bugs the snot out of me!

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jozanich:
Wow, i'm an idiot haha.

Thanks a bunch!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThaDSman:
This driving me crazy! How do I get Updater and Permissions manager to stop crashing?

With latest .22 update?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Looks like the broke permission manager made it into the build. http://t.co/20RWXe9x is the fixed permissions apk. push to system/app and reboot.

The updater app will not work for our phone, it is for updates right from china.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThaDSman:
Thanks, I was about to lose my mind!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Breezer23:
Am I the only one who finds that the non Linero build runs faster? I find it strange as NON MIUI roms are the exact opposite!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jozanich:
Agreed. Had to flash back from Linaro since it slowed (seemingly) everything down.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tattedupboy:
Where can I get the zip file for the non-Linaro version of the most recent build?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
You can always find the most recent at roms.miui.us
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BixBix78:
Linaro feels smoother on my device. I did change kernel to faux 18m kernel, but that was after I decided I felt linaro ran better for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Anon9mouz:
Well ima bout to build this same build but for sprint and I will see and let u know my findings BC I can finally get libs bins and vendor yay:p

Why cant I backup/ restore any of my apps? It didn't do the original Verizon startup and what not so I'm confused what to do and how to start miui
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
I am new to MIUI. I had been running AOKP. I am really liking all the little graphic details. I have a couple of questions

I am running a clean install of the Linaro compiled build with the Linaro build of Franco's 196 nightly kernel, and Nova Launcher (The no app drawer seems sacrilegious)

1. Why no setup wizard? It is a giant pain to download apps one by one.

2. I don't like the permission manager but can get used to it, why not just use superuser? It seemed strange that to give an app superuser permission its like a 6 click approval process, especially since to use the MIUI ROM on any device you have to be rooted. And will most likely be using apps that need root permission.

3. I lose 4G signal after a while. I have solid 4G coverage, but after a few hours it reverts to 3G and have to reboot for it to pick up 4G again. This is very annoying.

Found this on miui.us forum:

4G doesn't work right. This is due to the fact that the 4G radio is a port. -- Confirmed

Some apps don't connect to the data network. (credit to ejackson). This includes Verizon Apps and Weatherbug. -- Confirmed: See above bug.

4. The phone apk. The stock phone app is better IMO. I like being able to swipe over to contact and favorites. Why not just theme the standard ICS phone apk?

5. To use the theme app you need a Xiaomi account. I tried to set it up but I can't read Chinese.

6. How to remove the menu softkey? I went through the settings and it seems you can only disable the recent apps softkey. I would prefer the standard 3 button (back, home, recent apps) softkeys. It seems strange that it can't be toggled off since Google has been pushing manufacturers to ditch the menu key

EDIT* 7. Bloatware, why is there so much of it?

Like I said I am not totally familiar with MIUI, so some of this may be ignorance on my part. Just trying new things. Overall impression is it is nice, and I really like the menus, rounded corners, and other graphic details. If anyone is interested the setup I have is getting between 4300- 4400 on Quadrant

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 PM ----------

Its because the setupwizard.apk is missing from the ROM.

First, Go to Settings > Accounts and Sync > Add Account and add your google account

then go to the Play Store > My Apps > All and manually download your apps.

You could use Titanium Backup, but its highly recommended to install apps from the Play Store, and use Titanium Backup to restore data only to the apps that need it. Restoring apps + data from TiBu can cause instability.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
8. The notification sound goes off after sending a text message.

9. Some of the soft keys disappear. When using different apps the recent app soft key will disappear then when you exit to the home screen it comes back but the menu soft key disappears. If you lock then unlock all the soft keys return.

The more I use MIUI the more it seems like an early beta ROM. Is this typical for MIUI? Honestly I was expecting a very polished ROM from its reputation.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vince7:
Manually installing my apps is such a pain is there anyway to install the setup wizard in the system files?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
I don't want setup wizard. I like having my apps restored w/ data. Use titanium backup to restore your apps, or miui backup if you are coming back from another rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
Its not good to restore everything with TiBu

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Not everything. But user apps and data is fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Anon9mouz:
He is correct but only down fall if u have a lot of apps and using free version kinds sucks one by one that why I been putting my faith into the miui back up app BC its the same thing and its not one by one. Just remember no system apps unless u know what ur doing but most don't so don't do it lol:p

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jakeobie:
For number 6, you don't have to have an account to download themes, only for the backup app.

For number 8, you can disable that in the settings of the Messenger App. Setting is labeled "Delivery Reports".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tattedupboy:
I've noticed that if I try to send a text message the messaging app immediately force closes. The only way I can send texts is by replying to an already-existing messaging thread or by going into my contacts an selecting the message icon next to their name (no way to send messages to someone who isn't a contact and who hasn't already messaged me). I already tried fixing permissions and that didn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] notwen:
Just got my Galaxy Nexus and have had no issues rooting/flashing MIUI; was just curious about having a torch option included in the lockscreen. With my Droid Incredible I would hold the home softkey during the lockscreen, without the softkeys on the Galaxy Nexus the torch option is not possible. Any other options out there?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Go into toolbox and turn on home key for lock screen. I haven't tested it, but I assume it works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Anon9mouz:
It doesn't at least not for my build so I assume not for urs either :(

__________________________________________________
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] notwen:
Just checked, no go for me either. Hopefully they'll be able to get it worked out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BixBix78:
It works for me. U guys hold home for a second?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Anon9mouz:
U must not have the updated system UI and toolbox for build 2.6.22

__________________________________________________
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Builds are up. 2.6.29 get them at goo ROM manager or roms.miui.us. Thread will be updated tomorrow as I am away from reliable internet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BixBix78:
Yeah I was on 2.6.22 but pre toolbox revision. I had no need to flash the update.zip. No go on 2.6.29 but just volume wake, insecure keyguard to status bar button is easy too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Anon9mouz:
I figured that much lol I'm still rocking 2.6.15 bc of the search key lol I just love having it

__________________________________________________
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] magiman7:
It only works if you disable the 'recent' button in Miui settings. Miui is doing some button declaration name changing depending if the recent button is enabled or not. As such, the Toolbox will only work when the recent button isn't there. With China making long pressing home button duplicate the recent button, it has become somewhat unnecessary. Not perfect solution, but now you at least know whats going on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thadrow:
Bump. Thread shouldnt be this low down in development
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SoCalSpecialist:
everyones JellyBean nuts right now..

all the legit **** gets pushed away in the interim :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BixBix78:
I would be too if it were miui v4.1. I did think about flashing a jb rom ;) closest I've been running a non miui rom since root on the gnex. Hopefully miui hops on the wagon in the next few months.. I wouldn't mind a few of the features but not at the expense of a non miui rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
It crushed me to think how long miui has been working on ICS, and its still glitchy as hell. Hopefully it doesnt take another year to get miui jb to the point where its on par with aosp Roms.

Heres to hoping, love miui.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
Legit? I came from AOKP to MIUI and am now on JB.

I wanted to like MIUI because of all the graphic enhancements, but I really couldn't. It never felt like a polished ROM. Especially coming from AOKP

the official source hasn't even been released yet for JB and it already feels more complete than MIUI.

I highly respect the MIUI devs and their ambition. But all the graphic details don't matter when basic functionality is unstable. Maybe if the Gnex wasn't my daily driver but it is.

I was honestly surprised. I was expecting much more considering their team size and reputation.

I will say that if they get the kinks worked out where its smooth, I would definitely be back!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcaya34:
So what exactly happened to the theming in this new version. Everything is completely broken...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
Not just themes, almost everything is broken.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tattedupboy:
Do we have an ETA on when Team MIUI will begin Jelly Bean development? I'd love to see what MIUI's version of it will be like.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Theme manager is broken this week. If you push last weeks theme manager it should work fine. The joys of miuirom:-)

They are waiting for source like everyone else. It shouldn't take them too long to get some betas going. But I must say I am not as optimistic about it as some. They have had quite a while to resolve the rendering issues with the galaxy nexus ICS and have failed miserably. Here is hoping a do-over is what the doctor ordered :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tattedupboy:
Ok, the source code was released today. I now see no reason to continue with ICS development.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
No, theme manager from previous release doesn't work, it give force closes. I tried pushing it, but it wouldn't work. I went back to miui 6.29.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Delvien:
Still no build for todays update?

this makes me sad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
Usually posts on Saturdays if I remember correctly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Updated to 2.7.13 themes fixed, everything should work. Enjoy!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beamer9408:
Thanks for maintaining this thread and not losing your head when stupid questions are asked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WyldOne91:
Linaro build coming anytime soon? Please?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Silaz5210:
I noticed the navigation button apk's that change the order/size/color no longer work with this latest release. Will the toolbox allow for re-ordering or could someone please re-work the apks to work with the new framework?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Button ordering is native now. Settings/ Button. Color is still in the toolbox
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trini.s2k:
dnt like your linaro build , looks nice though , bout to flash your regular build , thanks for your hard work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samuraixzodus:
I loved MIUI on my incredible and would love to return. I flashed MIUI 3 weeks ago and had a lot of issues. I remember with the incredible every week was different as far as stability. Is their a recommended stable release I should flash. Thanks in advance and look forward to more MIUI.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
The current version is good. No issues for me. Setting min CPU to ~700 helps smooth the launcher.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samuraixzodus:
Great thanks hoppermi I'll give it a try!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trini.s2k:
its good i kept running into stupid little problems and it locked up while doing stuff
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cowsquad:
But the current version doesn't have the new task manager, why is that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Updated to 2.7.20
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SoCalSpecialist:
how are things going over here...havent ran anything other than JB in awhile?

any new features?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
No, but that is irrelevant since none of the old ones work either lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bdolan:
Can anyone make the volume button to skip tracks mod for miui v4?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SoCalSpecialist:
ahahahaha no ****?

how can that be tho, this sucker was stable as can be a few weeks back?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
I dunno, but getting tired of disappointment here. I don't think it's the port's fault, I think miui china just never got their **** together for V4. Hopefully they'll do better with jellybean.

Until then, I'm sure I'll continue flashing every Saturday in the hope that hell froze over. Still love miui for the good old days on the OG Droid...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wyattyoss:
I don't know why MIUI seemed so much more appealing on my OG Droid. I prefer that to this still.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
2.7.27 is uploaded. Get it at roms.miui.us or Rom manager
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idle0095:
Probaly been asked before and I apologize if so but how do I get the themes to be 100% english?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shobon:
By using English themes ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idle0095:
LOL. I can't find any. the ones i find i don't like. the one i have is sweet but the phone and lock screen are not english.

---------- Post added at 09:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 PM ----------

The name of the theme I like is called Subtropical Ecology, V4 but i can only find it in chinese and not english.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nighthawk626:
when you say themes work, what was wrong with the themes before?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
Previous build theme app FC's immediately.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idle0095:
So I like the idea behind MIUI but its lacking a lot of things that CM9 and AOKP bring. Like it needs more tweaks for the launcher. a lot more tweaks for the tool box. The nab bar only allows you to rearrange them not change the icon or make the nab bar smaller. If you compare miui to aokp just on tweaks miui is missing too much to be my daily driver. Plus all the themes I like are in chinese.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tattedupboy:
Do we have an ETA on when MIUI will join the Jelly Bean party? Just about everyone else has already.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubomime:
Its probably a little early to ask. Consider how long ICS has been out and miuiv4 still has more bugs than the Happiness Hotel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Ha. Yeah, no. Who knows wtf they are up to. You do have to remember that they are supporting many phones that do not have fully working JB yet. I have a feeling that with the completion of full xhdpi support, ICS miui is about done. No reason to continue, other than bug fixes.

I didn't see many bugs in the couple days I ran it. The stock theme is stunning now fully xhdpi. Unfortunately, every theme now has to be updated to fit, otherwise you end up with tiny status bar icons :-/

Anyway, We bought nexi to enjoy the multitude of ROMs available. I'm taking this lull to check out what is out there. On tap , aokp nightlies and paranoid android.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iTreezy:
I'd say a few months honestly. Though everyone is jumping on board jb, most roms right now are stock or close to with limited features. It takes awhile to cook features into a rom and seeing as MIUI is heavily modified, I don't think we'll see it for a long time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idle0095:
what launchers can be used with miui?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Anyone that works on ics
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idle0095:
is there any extended toolbox settings that can be added?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
Like what? A lot of things can be done with themes. Adding in more stuff to the toolbox is not easy like aosp ROMs. It is all smali hacks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idle0095:
Like remove nav bar, change nav bar icons. Like a lot of settings like AOKP has. Weather on lock screen. More info on lock screen. Calendar on lock screen. Battery bar and battery mods. Status bar mods like remove clock and so on. AOKP stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
OK. There are locksceens that have weather. Nav bar icons are theme able. You can remove clock using toolbox (center then set to transparent). Status bar themes will handle the battery icons. There used to be a mod for no Nav bar, but idk what happened w it.

Pretty much everything you are asking for can be done without hacks. It just takes a little work on your part.

However, you can always ask lithium76 to include stuff in the toolbox. If he thinks it can be done, he is pretty accommodating.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slosrtnick:
Anybody having geolocation problems with this latest release? The phone thinks I'm on the other side of the world unless I have GPS on and even then it takes forever to get a lock. Is there a patch or fix for this issue? This is a fresh install. Wiped data, cache, and dalvik cache before I installed.

Any help would be appreciated.

Nick
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hoppermi:
grab the network location .apk from 2.6.22 and push to system/app and set permissions to match. idk what has happened the last few weeks. but that should work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Anon9mouz:
Also fresh install includes wiping system

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is it possible to get Google now while running miui???

Question for you MIUI'ers: Does anyone else have stuttering and general lagginess of this rom? I've tried every update for 2-3 months and the issue continues. JB (cm10 and variants) and ICS (aokp and cm9) work fine with no lag, so it's not my device.

I love miui and I would like to use it again, but it's practically unbearable with the stuttering and lag everywhere.

Am I the crazy one here that notices it? I don't see anyone else complaining about it. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Anon9mouz:
Been gone since like 2.6.15 that's last version after that with all of China's trying to recode everything it was causing instability issues sorrie I loved that feature too:(

__________________________________________________
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Anon9mouz:
Try a different kernel we try to make it as best as possible out the box but really its china so I guess u can blame them but I'm sure u can look into maybe adding some speed tweaks but at the expense u might get ****y battery life so idk we will get it right hopefully before ics dies out and we are on jb :rolleyes:

__________________________________________________
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Delvien:
Well I've tried Trinity, Franco, Glados, Lean kernel. None seem to help with the stuttering. Scrolling on non-miui apps also seem to be stuttering and laggy.

Tried forcing gpu render on 2D apps, it helps a little, but does not fix the problem.
