now this sux.. MIUI thread was up when i were awake this morning and now it's gone? iot was going so good! :/ hoping for a new thread RLY soon.
[Nexus 4 General] Connor Baker:
How did you get Harsh kernel to work with MIUI? It was my understanding that something had to be edited in the boot.img in order for MIUI to boot. Would you mind outlining your flashing process for me, as well what you were running before you flashed MIUI?

Connor Baker
[Nexus 4 General] druweed:
I really just flashed harsh kernel / Wipe Cache, Dalvick, do a backup before just to be sure. But I had no issue. No edits.
[Nexus 4 General] XupModz:
That's ridiculous so now we can't see any of the progress in the forums...because of no kernel source code? C'mon really?
[Nexus 4 General] dinesh690:
It's not ridiculous, it is a matter of GPL compliance which is taken very seriously on XDA. If you want some extra information on this you can read up on XDA and its approach to the GPL license here:

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/xda-developers-and-the-gpl/
[Nexus 4 General] kipue:
So, help me understand this:

I see that there are numerous other MIUI threads for other devices around on XDA. Are they allowed because they are based on CM, Sammy or whatnot? Is it the difference?

Another case I m thinking off of, what if a version was proposed here, with original MIUI code, but with another kernel by default, would that make it acceptable?

I m wondering :)
[Nexus 4 General] 1Nexus:
If someone doesn't mind directing me, where do these Russian builds even originate from?
[Nexus 4 General] raiderep:
I'm curious as well. I am running v3 and the only issue so far is root, anyone have any idea if we just need to flash the su.zip in recovery?

[Nexus 4 General] avocco:
Although I disagree with MIUIs tactics Samsung themselves have been violating GPL on a number of devices. The truth is I love choice and I also love development that brings our devices far beyond that which was originally intended for them. Which is exactly why XDA was started in the first place.

MIUI when based on AOSP code is lightning fast and some of the features like call recording that are built into it are extremely useful. But then again GPL is GPL. I do respect the rules just like to rant once in a while.
[Nexus 4 General] Connor Baker:
Just curious, but Krait/Bionic/Skia/Linaro optimizations are all added in at compile time, right? So I can't say... Take files and patch MIUI myself?

Connor Baker
[Nexus 4 General] 1Nexus:
Thanks Baker ;)
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
Yes they have to use another kernel that is GPL compliant. Think about it. Without the GPL the only device that would see MIUI is their own.

Wayne Tech Nexus
[Nexus 4 General] XupModz:
But how can you just take it down when it is not at all possible to get the source code for the kernel everyone knows that miui never complies with that stuff they don't care but still, knowing many people are interested and now cannot get the updates how is that fair to the user?

EDIT: not trying to flame or be mean just asking questions..
[Nexus 4 General] Connor Baker:
I've come up with a hypothesis.

The Russian version of MIUI uses Franco's kernel, which contains a modified ram-disk. I've been trying to flash the latest Franco Kernel on top of that, which causes it to stick at the boot logo.

The only people that I've seen successfully flash another kernel on top of the Russian Version are using either Harsh's or Faux's Kernels, both of which (I believe) don't touch the ramdisk. I'm going to try to flash both Faux's and Harsh's kernels, as well as others that don't modify the ramdisk.

If this works, then it means that the tweaks that the kernel needs to boot (or at least some of them), reside in the ramdisk.

Here's how I flashed. First, in TWRP, I did advanced wipe (system, dalvik, cache, data), and then a factory reset. Then I flashed build 3 (three) of the russian MIUI, and without rebooting, flashed the kernel I wanted to test. I then wiped cache and dalvik one more time, and rebooted.

Connor Baker
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
That is part of the reason MIUI is not popular here. You have to remember we are a Developer Forum. Made for and by developers. The reason they still dont do this is because most people dont care and us it anyway. If it wasnt for other developers MIUI would never be heard from again.

The Stock MIUI kernel is not allowed here for just this reason. Any MIUI rom posted here has to use a 3rd party kernel that has source posted. If it doesnt then it is removed.
[Nexus 4 General] XupModz:
Wait...then putting Franco's as the default and giving source for that be acceptable?
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
Yes If you use a 3rd party kernel like franco's which has the source code posted then it is fine.
[Nexus 4 General] lzyllp:
I think this nothing about GPL.

this kernel use stock Google zimage,only mod ramdisk to get miui work.

this no mod source,all source from Google
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
Then There will no no issues posting the source code now will there be. And If MIUI tells you this know they are lying as no stock AOSP kernel works on MIUI. This has been proven time and time again when they first started stating this.
[Nexus 4 General] pikachukaki:
Loved miui while it was a solid light rom on GB i test this!UI lag is unacceptable on a 4cores device!also try it with francos kernel!the same!its beta you will say!i dont care i will answer!4.2.2 is out there at least 10 months now!really bad cause back then it was a great rom!now its only a great themable rom!
[Nexus 4 General] XupModz:
Bricked, joker and others work
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
Then people are free to use those. Nothing is stopping them from using another kernel, but if someone posts a rom there are required to post the source code for the included kernel. If their are the Dev or not.
[Nexus 4 General] villapark75:
I tried Matr1x and PA stock kernel, neither booted.

This was my first experience with MIUI and it looks pretty good...... But not for me, seems cartoony somehow.
[Nexus 4 General] Neefy:

[Nexus 4 General] DJBhardwaj:

[Nexus 4 General] lzyllp:
It only need edit some line in ramdisk init.rc.

original ramdisk no boot.

No need change zImage no chenge source so no need complie from source.only need use stock one.

I already test and do it
[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
The rules are simple and non debatable. If no source is posted for the kernel then no rom is posted. Unless you compile it from source you can only take someones word that it is stock. This will not save you when you are asked for the full source code for the kernel with all changes clearly documented.

On a side note really hoping the AOSP hints are true and we get 4.3 tomorrow

It is not a matter of liking it or not. The rules are clear. If you post a rom then you better post the kernel source code as well. If you dont by the GPL you lose all rights to post anything that falls under the GPL. Now I have made myself crystal clear on this. If it wasnt for the GPL you wouldnt have MIUI to begin with.
[Nexus 4 General] Archmag3:

[Nexus 4 General] zelendel:
No it is site wide. Also you can not link to sites that require you to sign up to get anything. I read over the thread and it said it appears to be but no one knew for sure. Now I know alot of you like MIUI but to be honest you might be better off doing on the MIUI site and not here until people can post links to the kernel source code and that would mean compiling the code for the kernel or using a 3rd party kernel that hey know for sure has not been edited.

MIUI in any place doesn't hold Franco's as its default kernel. Its the unofficial ports that carry the custom kernel for better performance, stability, features etc.

Is there anything that makes MIUI different from, say, the other custom ROM's and/or themes for this device?

I recall running MIUI on my Galaxy Tab I think a while back, and it wasn't in any real "usable" state, compared to the other ROM's. It looked different though, but looks < usability...
[Nexus 4 General] lowrider262:
Miui is completely different from all of the other current Roms for this device. Its like running a whole different OS. I loved miui for gingerbread, but after ICS it seemed pretty borked for every device I owned. Too bad, it would be nice to have a change of pace around here.
