[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] igotlostintampa:
So, Just days after making my post about my thoughts on the latest stable Miui.us Rom which is version 2.10.26.3 I was looking through the original dev section and came across (almost as soon as it was put out) The Miui Lens edition. Which was originally titled to imply that the rom was able to be used right off the bat as a daily driver, so I downloaded, and installed it. And here was my original impression.

Before the first update release the rom was uninstallable, but this was fixed.

I installed it to realize that I stupidly had not installed gapps, so I picked from one of my default gapps version I keep on my SD card, and installed it.

I got back into the rom, to realize that out of the hardware keys (back, home, recent apps) the only one working, was back.

Within minutes, this rom was updated to fix said issue. And I currently have all buttons working, that said I am having a haptic feedback issue where none of the buttons make the phone vibrate, this was not enough of an issue to get me off the rom, so I continued and until today was waiting for another update to hopefully fix the issue, but even with said update, issues are existant that still make phone usage not completely satisfying, as it was in the Miui.us 2.10.26.3 version of this rom.

Usability current Testing results, and thoughts:

I would like to start out here by saying that I have every intention of going back to the lens release of miui as soon as I can confirm that it is stable enough for ME to use as a daily, which for me, generally means that everything I do on the phone has to function properly, without the need of downloading a separate application, or having to fix things manually. I like the lens release of the rom more SPECIFICALLY because of the developer. His releases of the Miui rom are getting better, not worse, and I likely believe that he will create the perfect Miui rom for our phone faster than the developers at Miui.us.

1. Miui Launcher Configuration is functioning properly

2. Miui Themes is currently functioning properly as long as an account is set up, during the set up process.

3. Miui Music test showed first, that the app was functioning properly, however upon secondary test of setting configuration I realized that when

the Id3 tag correction and album art download was enabled without setting up an account during setup process, that the music app would F/C

I rebooted and cleared my cache and dalvic.

4. Headphone test (Brought to you by the Lens Rom Forum) failed, without an application (headphone toggle) from the Marketplace any -----------headphones plugged into the device, will not output sound. The device will remain on speaker.

5. Miui Sound Recorder, upon initializing sound record brings the emergency notification (Internal Application Error)

6. Miui Music Visualizer on both lockscreen and widget are responding to system sounds only (such as a notification, or a previously enabled or defaulted touch sound. They do not respond to music.

7. Miui will not detect that music is playing and alter the lockscreen to music format for you, because of this, to access the lockscreen music controls you must double tap on the...dongle to drag and unlock, to switch to the music control lockscreen, this is not a major issue, however with the visualizer not working, the controls, and the widget look a tad bland for Miui. (odd how that works)

8. The Miui Virus Scanning Application is functioning properly (a test was done with a known app to contain a virus, it was found and removed)

9. The Miui Shake to organize on home screen is not currently an available feature for this rom.

10. The Miui Notes application is functioning properly.

11. The Miui Setup Process was completed without error.

12. Miui Wifi download speeds seem comparable to sense. However an issue with rom abuse may cause you to loose ALL internet access until phone was rebooted, I cannot test further as I am still currently unaware of how this happened. But after I got this rom, I was preforming tests on it to test stability for 3 hours straight without letting the device sleep, after 3 hours (and some odd minutes) my internet, while displaying I had a perfect connection in 3g, and wifi, would not download an app, load a webpage (tested on 3 separate browsers), or allow internet access to an application.

13. The Miui firewall application, Seems, to be functioning properly, however when first setup it did not block the first incoming call from test subject. All others, were blocked respectively.

14. The Miui Camera featured in this rom (actually a camera from a previous AOSP rom) is functioning properly, with all settings configured, It is not a Miui Camera but a modded camera none the less, and has interesting features, that I will miss, upon loosing this rom.

15. All Miui Notification configurations are working properly

16. Miui sound mods have been enabled on this device, allowing me to hear my ringtone from 3 rooms away in an apartment (currently not so on cm10, and Paranoid android (tho I do love that rom))

17. Miui Online music, notifications, themes, album art, and id3 tag correction will only work if an account is set up at the initial boot of the room during setup.

18. The Miui Torch is working without issue on this rom.

19. Awesome beats v3 is untestable at the moment but assumed working, as headphones can be enabled.

36. All but weather widgets are currently functioning properly on this rom.

37. Google voice (brought to you by the Lens rom Forum) is not currently working on this rom.

-I would like to point out, that sprint is partnered with google voice, and you can set it to replace your actual voicemail, and text you visual voicemail, making all your texts go to you, and all calls go to you, you have visual voicemail, and regular voicemail. It will also screen your calls and blah blah, idk what the app is for if it already does that, if you know something that you would be missing, please inform me promptly.

38. Lucky patcher patch confirmed working on all different configurations on multiple applications.

45. The miui Compass is working properly on this rom.

46. All lockscreen transition options are working properly on this rom.

47. 3g, 1x signal bars seem to be accurate in comparison to sense rom.

48. Calendar, reminders for calendar, and notifications for calendar are working properly on this rom.

If you have something you would like me to test other than the 51 things i have already tested for you please let me know below and I will try to get around to it within 1-2 days. I will keep a backup of this and of The Miui.us rom and keep them both updated, i will also, keep both of these posts updated to the best of my ability.

Thank you very much, and i hope you have a wonderful day.
