[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] icenight89:
Almost all the devs are American, hence the AT&T base. But more and more of them have shifted focus to aosp based cm9 (now stable :D), cm10 and aokp.

These have all proven better in both performance and battery life, as they possess no carrier bloat and were built near to the way Google intended

Guys im really screwed this time. I got a replacement phone with tmobile and everything was great exept i accedentally sent it in usps not ups, now there sending me messege saying to return the phone, o and also it said they miight charge me up to 600 dollars if they dont get it. Im going to check my post office tommorow, but what if i cant find it. I DONT WANT TO PAY 600 DOLLARS
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Just calm down man, they will send you messages like that for weeks. I had to call them and just tell them like look I know I was supposed to send the phone in ( moto cliq ) but its packed away I'm moving, they gave me 30 more days to "find it" and once I did I sent it and never heard another word about it.

But I'm not telling you to hold it hostage, just my past experience with T-Mobile

Sent from my HTC MyTouch 4G Slide running MikXE
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wiswis:
So i should call them and ask for an extendion
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] GoPadge:
Yeah. And tell them to check their mail room....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] megagodx:
I was comparing the front facing cameras side by side and on top of each other. I noticed that the Sprint variant's camera was much brighter, showed more accurate colors and looked better in low light conditions. Why could this be? Are the camera optics on each carriers device different perhaps? I know the Sprint Galaxy S III got a very important OTA update with a few stability fixes/tweaks. Could that have something to do with it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blue265:
Just throwing this out there but did you check to make sure brightness settings were the same ? Yours may have been on a low brightness setting making it seem less colorful. Often display units with be on full brightness to look better
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] johnomaz:
Thats what I was thinking. The on screen pictures don't look very good to me, from the front or rear camera, but the file on my computer looks great. If I turn up the brightness it looks better. I've noticed that on my S3, my nieces Galaxy S and my Dad's Galaxy Note, the screeens have a blue tint to them if the brightness is turned low and the pictures color looks washed out. Increased brightness takes care of it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] megagodx:
I am sure. I sat there for at least 7 minutes comparing them and the settings. I am now sure it could just be my unit. A friend of mine who also has one looks very similar to the quality of mine.
[Android General] 0xD34D:
I've been contemplating this for some time now and as I become more committed to doing this I decided to come to the XDA community for input. Love it or hate it MIUI has done some things right when it comes to custom ROMs. The one big thing that I feel they offered that others have fallen short on is it's theming ability. Other parts of MIUI come with their pros and cons but the one thing that has stifled it's growth in the community is the lack of open sourced code. I've been porting MIUI on several devices for miui.us for a while now and the one thing that has really been a pain is the countless smali hacks needed to get a good port released.

So with that said, here's what this post is really about. I'd like to begin work on a completely open source clone of MIUI. I'm not looking to make this a 100% clone, but I would like to implement as many of the features that makes it a good and unique ROM. First and foremost would be getting the framework and SystemUI modified to work with MIUI's themes. From that point the project could be broken down into all the various sub-projects like the customized apps. I understand the magnitude of this project and it's not one that a single person can take on. Part of what makes the open source community so great is the fact that people from all over the world can contribute to make a product better and I believe that with others that are committed to seeing a project such as the one I propose come to fruition as I am, this could easily become a reality.

I've worked on large projects and I've done my fair share of android development both on the application side and on the ROM side of things, so I understand the breadth of this project. What I'd like to know is if this sounds like something others would be interested in both from a user's perspective and from a developer's perspective. With it being AOSP based and open sourced, we could see better support for devices which MIUI does not officially support.

tl;dr - I'd like to start an AOSP based project that offers an alternative to MIUI's closed source ROM. MIUI theme support is a must and if stock MIUI apps could work with it out of the box, even better. I'd like to hear your thoughts and ideas about such a project.

note: I have the experience and know how to make this a reality with the right team and contributors. I'm merely looking for feedback and those that may be interested in contributing to the project.

Thanks for your time.
[Android General] linds6630:
you know i love the idea :P happy to see this might finally be a reality, and count on me to help wherever i can. now hurry up so i can port it to the One S buddy :D
[Android General] superkid:
Count on me on whatever you need :) You are an awesome dev after all, this will be easy for you.
[Android General] dakunesu:
completly agree, its one of the big deciding factors to me using miui. its especially a big problem when it comes to updaing base versions like ics to jellybean.

i would absolutly love to have paranoidandroid(tablet/n7 interface options) with themes(and icon generation) and lbe integration.
[Android General] 0xD34D:
Thanks superkid. It won't be easy though but that's why I think a lot of us do this stuff, for the challenge. And who knows, as the project matures we may see some of it's features end up in other ROMs, which would be cool by me. That's part of what is motivating me to take the initiative on getting this project off the ground.
[Android General] waynekirby:
+1 for this

This is the reason I love XDA so much! Great idea and I hope it becomes the best alternative to MIUI :D

Can't contribute code but will support it for Xperia Neo & Arc when the code is released lithium :)

LeWa OS

I know LeWa did something similar to this. It looks good, but could really use some improvement. I'm pretty handy with adobe illustrator if you need any design let me know.
[Android General] _polimorph_:
I'm currently porting MIUI for Samsung GT-i9300 on AOSP base and really want to support this cause. It's a brilliant ideea, like the man who wants to implement it.

You can count on me.
[Android General] jordanishere:
Sounds awesome. Hope it happens.

A move like this is big and can only happen at xda. I'm not a dev but would donate to this project.
[Android General] djjonastybe:
I stopped support for CM10, AOKP and so on because of a lack of support for devices. Also their code is unstable, sloppy, ...

I always have skipped MIUI because of the Chinese stuff included. If we can start a open source MIUI project with better translations I will support you and help programming.

I will only support the project if the focus is on user experience, and not crazy modifications like Cyanogenmod. We have enough of those. By this I mean color multipliers, gamma multipliers, vibration multipliers, ...

I also would like to support tablets if this is a go. I can also translate to dutch.
[Android General] crazyfool_1:
I'd be interested in supporting this project.. I'm a dev, Java primarily but I'm half decent with C/C++ so would definitely like to help out.. Always like MIUI but find it very laggy in general compared to other offerings
[Android General] pulser_g2:
A nice idea, will be interesting to see how it goes!
[Android General] i-MAD:
super great idea :) good luck to all devs and contributors.

Q: is the miui promise to open source is off? is their github updating or dead?
[Android General] MrColdbird:
Sounds good. I'm in.

nice work ;) but the screenshots are a lil' bit small
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] LeoPosas:
Screenshots look good for me. :eek:
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] andreas__:
The quote around is 4x4 cm big with all screenshots :D but right-click and open in new tab works :)

edit now they really work :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Ziore:
Awesome, can't access mediafire from this wifi atm but, how to install? 150 MB enough?

why Nemus and not Zeam?

why would you choose this instead of miro's 2.3.7 rom?

can't see screens (open in new tab fixes it)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] LeoPosas:
Nemus it's more complete, very configurable and a lot of themes ( Support Go Themes. )

Yes, it's enough, but 160 or 170 are recommendable.

Just try it, this it's more optimized and tweaked.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Eth4n:
3g and net tweaks will drain battery faster.

And also, i don't get it:

ro.wifi.channels= :confused:

ro.kernel.checkjni=0

and then

ro.kernel.android.checkjni=1

did u add bravia engine?

I'm curious (seriously), i always seen it at 0 or 1...what's this?

EDIT: Ok i saw here

With "2" deep sleep works better on this rom?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Ziore:
Why would 160 or 170 be recommendable over 150 MB?

Nemus is as lightweight as Zeam?

What if I apply each of this teaks and optimizations to sdsl?

(Sorry for all the questions, looking for a "final" rom for my phone ._.)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
@OP can you try usog Google drive as host? Faster :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] LeoPosas:
/ Yes, i tested and it's better slepper
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] LeoPosas:
It's for if you want to install more system apps.

Nemus it's light, fast and smooth, try and you'll see. Zeam have poor features, basically you can't configure to your way too much.

You can apply, but maybe some will be unuseful.

Ok, i'll upload there for the next version.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
nvm
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Eth4n:
I did a search twice...i still think those 2 lines are for bravia hack,not for megabass :confused:

and as for this line

i always deleted the empty one, because on all build.prop files it's doubled.

Thank you,i'll do some tests on another rom :)

EDIT: Seems that you're right. Unpacking the megabass file i found an "add_to_buildprop.sh" file that adds those lines.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] LeoPosas:
See the attached pic.

PD. I'll add bravia engine in next version...agree? :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Eth4n:
It will slow down the device in the long time and there's no noticeable difference, already tested with a 2.2 rom. You can see the test in my sign. There's a link to the mod too,so you can test yourself ;)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] LeoPosas:
Ok, you've tested, i'll trust on you. ;)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] LeoPosas:
I'll make an update soon, i found a couple, minimal errors (novice:silly:), and added more tweaks, minimal too, but useful.

Also, i've planed add this awesome dialer, called exDialer, fast, beautiful, many features and themes support. Here's a screenshot.

Add Dolphin Browser too. More faster than stock browser and more light than Opera Mobile.

What you think about this apps guys? Need some approvals :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] TMinh:
Totally agree with u about these apps
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
Yes! Those will do. Maybe you can change the splashscreen?

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Rusan0052:
comes a new version? if so must come from no fault installations
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] MalarKeY007:
Well. I did make a conclusion today.

This is the Best Android 2.3.7, Cyanogen mod so far.

About any ICS ROM here: They are incredible slow with so many random reboots, that is incredible to see... :( And when I woke up today, My phone was dead, huge battery drain.

This ROM by leoposas is the best. For real... Everything working fine. Little bugs, but OK... Battery lasting for 4 days or more in my usage type (casual games and wi-fi usage, everyday listen to music...)

And the customizations... The unlock ring, the clock, the fonts, the themes... SWAP working fine...

And some bugs on Stroke 3.5 disappeared on Stroke 4.0. So I'm very happy to use this ROM.

Thank You Leoposas.

Then I flashed it (using recovery 6.0.1.0 - Home+Power and downloaded from Dev-Host) TODAY and it worked perfectly.

You are doing something wrong dude.

Yeah,

Auto Focus;

Rarely times mp3 music hangs for a milisecs;

Rarely times the brightness changed on Notification Bar don't get fixed. Rebooting fix it;

I get cyanogenmod.cmparts force close, if I try to get to Widget Options, under LockScreen Options;

And I got to change the Solid Explorer back to RootBrowser. (Solid Explorer Beta Version Expired).

No more bugs so far. Everything else working smooth. :good:
