MIUI for EVO... SPEECHLESS! UPDATE: TIPS ADDED! - EVO 4G General

Folks, I just installed MIUI 0.1.14-RC2.5 and I am totally SPEECHLESS! It feels like a totally different phone! It doesn't even look like a typical Android phone anymore. Yes, it gives the phone an iPhonish feel, but it's amazing indeed. If you have been thinking about giving it a shot, NANDROID and give it a try!
http://miui-dev.com/forums/showthread.php?2053-UPDATE-New-Official-Release-Thread-0.1.14
UPDATE: Just wanted to add and compile a list of the little things that make this ROM great and UNIQUE. If you have any tip or things you have discovered, just post them in this thread and I will update the OP.
1. Built-in screenshot feature. Simply press volume down + menu, and you will be able to save a screenshot if your current display.
2. When making a call, you can RECORD the conversation. Once the number is dialed, simply click CALL TOOLS | REC and the call will be recorded and saved as an audio .amr file to your sdcard.

That's exactly how I felt when I first flashed it. Heck that's how I still feel after running it for close to 3 months. It's amazing.

Dude, I am in awe as to how flexible Android OS is. It's just amazing. I just finished flashing RC2.5 where they fixed the MMS issue. I think RC3 will be released tonight.
The ROM looks so professional and fluidly smooth. I don't even have to install Launcher Pro on it nor ChompSMS.

hows the battery life?

My opinions of course:
Sense ROMs - Myns, Fresh
AOSP ROMs - CM of course and MIUI (is MIUI considered an AOSP ROM?)
Kernels - Any that has SBC integrated

that's my BIGGEST issue with it. wasn't impressed by MIUI tbh, i did love the look of the dialer though.

I'm actually running LauncherPro on top of it, and it is even smoother. Have you had a chance to check out any themes yet? I recommend the Darkness theme, it's pretty awesome.

I ran MIUI for a while, not sure if much has changed on it but it was pretty nice. Looks, functionality, and smoothness was awesome. Battery life was in between CM and Sense based rom. who knows with newer kernels and builds but thats how it went for me about two months ago

Yeah I don't know what battery life is like on Sense ROMs anymore but I always have 55-65% left every morning when I swap out batteries. If I forget to swap the battery I still make it through the second day no problem. I'm using these batteries though, and they do last a bit longer than stock.

The look is the least of the MIUI rom. The theme manager makes it very very easy to change the look of the UI.
I've been on this rom since the beginning. It has (had?) features before many Sense roms. One reason I kept going back is the controls in the pull-down screen. Then there's the file manager (ok, right now it doesn't work but 1.1.14 may fix it), the camera, the lock screen. I also like having folders to organize my apps.
I'm hoping that the Wimax on CM means MIUI can also get Wimax. It would be nice to have 4G.

How can I check it out? I'm still learning how to navigate around MIUI.

i feel like trying it, which version should i try? lol only things that dont work is 4g and hdmi?

LED's fully functional with Wimax LED Notification
version 1.1.7
Does this mean 4g is working on this version?

For those wanting to try it, official release thread here: http://miui-dev.com/forums/showthread.php?2053-New-Official-Release-Thread-1.1.7
The story with this ROM is that it is not developed for the EVO. It's officially made the for the Nexus One (I think), and we have a generous team of devs to port it over to the Evo each time the official devs release a new version (every seven days or so). Also the ROM is developed in Chinese so there's a lot of translation work to do.
1.14 was just released so those wanting to try out MIUI might want to wait a day or two for the Evo port to drop. If not, 1.7 is working great

ROM Request - Vanilla AOSP 2.1

I am not knowledgeable enough to do this myself, or I would. I would like to request a plain AOSP 2.1 build ROM for the CDMA Hero. I figure since the kernel source code is out and Android 2.1 source code is out, this one shouldn't be too difficult to achieve.
I'm not big on the extra apps in a ROM either. I'm talking almost barebones. I don't want Sense either...just a plain AOSP.
Anyone want that too? If so, add your comment here and let's see if you can get someone more skilled than me to do it.
I also realize that it does take time to make a ROM, so if this doesn't come to fruition I'm not going to get upset, but figured I have nothing to lose by asking.
Thanks
yeah would love 2.1
i love the bottom menus with the dots instead of drawer and new icons
i hope its like this onedaylol

A plain just from source build would be right up my alley as well.
I also would like. Anyone want to start a donation pot for the dev that does it? I would donate.
Me too. Just like the Nexus One, no Sprint-specific apps, but also no funny stuff like adding apps or changing colors. What is AOSP?
AOSP = Android Open Source Project

I usually hate posts like this, but the situation DEFININTELY called for it
Sweet, Advanced On-Board Signal Processor, got it.
Uh, that's a joke btw.
+1..... a fully functioning plain vanilla 2.1 ROM for my Hero!!!
This may take some time.. Although we have the kernel, from my understanding there is still some porting that needs to happen to the 2.1 code so that the AOSP will run on our phone with all the different hardware. HTC was right on time with this release i was two days away from ordering an n1 from google. guess ill stick around and learn as much as i can and see what happens
yes please. as plain as possible
You can use flipz 2.1 Rom, turn sense off, and that would be a 2.1 vanilla Rom ...... that is what I'm doing right now for the moment

Besides having the hero apks, does this ROM (when sense is turned off) look and act like the Nexus 1 ROM?
(I would try it for myself, but I don't wanna go through the hassle of wiping my device and restoring all the info/data)
Thanks for answering my question.
PS: I actually like Hero's Phone, Contacts and Calendar a lot more than stock.
Yeah, I would definitely be interested in this too. I just switched over from a Touch Pro a few weeks ago, and have been reading up on Hero ROMs, but none have really caught my attention too much yet. I'm not usually a fan of all the HTC goodies....
(Also, I'm a new poster here.. This seems like a better place for Hero stuff than where I was over at PPCgeeks)

If only
The kernel source is out, yes, but for 2.1 to run at its best, it needs to be running 2.6.29 kernel version, which is not released (for our phone). I'm working on a port, but so far it doesn't boot )) and others may be in the process of doing the same.
There are other projects to get AOSP 2.0.1 and 2.1 on the phone, and those have been working with the 2.6.27 kernel, which is not going to run as well as intended. Of course all it'll take is replacing the kernel, hopefully, and I'm sure someone will make a breakthrough in porting the kernel soon

Well if your going for straight performance i would suggest trying an oc kernel over my rom because i have had awsome results as far as speed. i cant guarentee you the same results as few are able to but i was able to run 1.4ghz on my rom with -75mv across the board all day long i was getting around 19 and 20 linpack. hope that gives you some ideas.
Will def give this one a try!

may change my mind on things i got suckerpunch and serendipity if that puts it in focus pun intended
any reason that you took the link down?? i started downloading a bit ago and i saw that you took the link down about 1 min after i started the download. i think that this rom is just what my captivate needs i need about 1 hr more battery life than what im getting now. cant wait till my battery is fully charged.
i noticed 2 small things and it was not signed. it will be up in a min
Good luck with your ROM, I know I've learned a ton in such a short amount of time.

[ROM] 666th Sense V1.1 - Retro (2.1) - 7/17/2011

I've decided to run it Retro for a little bit. This is a 2.1 Sense ROM based on the March 2011 OTA for the HTC Eris. As of right now everything seems to be working very smoothly. The Rom is default O/C at 710400 with on demand governor. Min CPU speed default is at 19200. You can easily change the cpu speeds and governors with setcpu or Conaps CPUBoost. I've also went ahead and changed the kernel to zanfurs kernel by popular request. If you want to use Conaps it can be flashed from recovery. There's also been a ton of other tweals I've added with some help from HaRdC0r3 so a big thanks to him for his input on this.
credits:
zanfur - kernel
btfb0 - all his work catching the OTA and sharing with us
Make sure you perform a nand backup before flashing. Also.. as always, what you do with your device is you're ultimate decision. No one has told you nor forced you to do anything so if anything happens to your device it's no one's fault but your own.
I recommend a full wipe on this update. All updates after this I plan to try and keep as dalvik only.

I wouldn't mind going back to Sense for some nostalgia, but I'm not sure if its worth dropping GB.
From what you got tested before the phone decided to go parachuting, minus the parachute, how does it compare speed wise compared to GB ROMs?

I honestly didn't think there was much difference in speed. I also had not o/c'd it at all. I was running it at stock which is 528. It can easily be oc'd with conap's CPUBoost or Set CPU as well. But I personally didn't think it was a noticeable difference from GB.
Dude you got a sick sense of development
Welcome to porting...
Ok. I flashed this bad boy last night. It is very smooth and fast. Of course it is 2.1 though. But really to me, when you have a phone like the Eris, trying to put 2.3 on it is pointless. Im liking this Rom. Plain and runs great. I think a black keyboard with white and gray lettering would be awesome. Good job man

Out of curiosity, why do you feel this way?
I have tried many of the 2.3 Roms on my Eris and have always had a great experience with them. 2.1 wasn't bad either. It was the trivial things that made me want to leave 2.1 and try a newer rom.

Well every 2.3 Rom I have tried hasn't been the smoothest. I was just saying that the Eris is getting dated. It is cool though that we are able to put it on if we want to. 2.1 is just so smooth that I find it hard to leave. I like both sense and aosp but if I can find a smooth sense Rom, ill take that any day.

Thanks. I am with you on Sense. I have always enjoyed it. It's what drew me to the HTC offerings when I dumped ATT and my iPhone.
Just 2.1 underneath made a little less enjoyable for me. Not that it wasn't smooth or anything like that but things like when I get a notification while I am listening to music or an audio book. In 2.1, the music or the book keeps playing even though the volume for it is replaced by the notification sound. In 2.3, the same actually pauses plays the notification sound then resumes.
I am enjoying Tazz Ginger Sense.
As you guys may know I was away for a little bit. I'm back and have some other things taken care of and I'll be looking into these problems some of you have posted and working on and update soon...

De-romming HTC Hero + best current rom?

Hey guys, I bought some on insurance on my phone while I went on holiday and obviously it got broken, so Orange are ever so sweetly replacing my phone tonight with a brand new one. However, to avoid the questions, I'd like to make my phone exactly like I first got it, if that is atall possible.
Second issue, once I unpack my new baby I'd like to install the newest, most stable rom.. good battery life, fast, efficient.. etc. Any advice?
Thanks guys.

Well...seems that you want a custom ROM. If you want to run the stock Sense ROM with android 2.1 you can install VillainROM 13 (it has some tweaks that make the phone rocket )...but you can try an AOSP ROM with android 2.3.5
Here are the links were you can download them
1.VillainROM 13 [Stock ROM with tweaks] -> HERE
2.Elelinux AOSP v3.3 [Android 2.3.5 with some tweaks and extra stuff] -> HERE
3.OMFGB AOSP by JieeHD [Android 2.3.5 with little modifications] -> HERE
4.Elelinux Speedmachine V5 [Android 2.2.1 with custom settings] -> HERE
5.Floyo 1.2 [Android 2.2.1 with custom settings] -> HERE
I recommend all of them, but you choose what you like, i used the first 3 and like them a lot. PS: i put some of the roms with the direct download link, if you want to see the page go to the development section
Keep me posted if you have any problems
Stefan
Sorry if I'm hi-jacking the thread, but thanks for the helpful post stefpaul. I'm getting a Hero this week (won it on eBay for under £100) and going through the development section to look for a good ROM is like looking for a needle in a haystack!
Not that the ROMs are rubbish you understand, it's just hard to find one I like out of all the choice!

on the 140 dpi version everything gets a little smaller. For me there's no problem to read the text and it is pretty useful to display more content at the screen. I've not found any apps that don't like the new lcd density
Yes i agree VE is the fastest rom, but still there's something need to fix, the graphic when you press the power button there is a line should not in that place.. Just a small thing, but arent we want a perfection right?
Sorry for my bad english

I've been using VillainRom since I got my Hero and never turned back, only reason I've upgraded is that mines getting slow and I cant use any apps

There maybe some apps on 140 DPI that look funny. But in spareparts there is an option for that. Compatibility mode. change that and then reboot and all apps show full screen

BAKED Blackbean-3
Flashed and running it , VERY customisable ....even more than a standard AOKP build. Apex launcher as default with a landscape dock as standard.
Loving it so far ! Lil bit buggy but still usable. ( Icons , wallpaper and widgets not in the ROM )

My Initial Thoughts
Well I'm extremely annoyed - I was promised a few bugs (OP) and there are none! Drat! I wiped everything within an inch of it's life, then flashed the ROM followed by inverted gapps. I have not had one force close, no burps, no screen flicker, nada, nothing bad in 6 hours of heavy running.
This ROM is as smooth as , well, teflon - easily the equal of any CM10 I have tried. I noted with pleasure the toggles and particularly the "put the screen to sleep toggle" (I like to save mechanical switches whenever possible) and I can never understand why other devs don't include this very simple toggle.
Truth is, I will be using this as my DD on my GTP3113 - I'm not sure that any significant improvement is warranted.
Thanks much to hjkr and the original dev for this great piece of work.

I'll be sure to pass this over to the dev - I flashed this morning, tinkered with some settings, etc. Haven't tried the inverted apps nor tried to drop Jonsels awesome kernel on it - wanted to let the dev know if anything came across this forum, I'd be more than happy to relay over to him, etc.

The camera is borked - I think this true for CM10 generally (no way to exit app) so I d/l'd Camera JB+ and will use that. Only issue so far.

This rom is really nice. I flashed the inverted gapps and after several hours of steady use I haven't even had a stutter. Kangorade was the very first rom I flashed on this tab and this is the only one I've used since with this many features. Amazing job guys. Best alpha ever...
Sent from my GT-P3113 using XDA Premium HD app
Only major issue I had when I first flashed it was, Superuser was having problems allowing permissions and it froze up once or twice and had to do a hard reboot.But it seems to have settled in now and is playing nice. Froze up a few times initially when using some apps as well Maybe it was a bad flash from AOKP ? who knows ....
Really Impressed with it so far , nice to mess about with and customise that little bit more than you can with AOKP. Pretty cool you can edit build.props ( even though i use Rom Toolbox to do it , but a good feature to have none the less).Themes work well on the ROM.
Apex in landscape is a blessing !!!! Customisable settings menu as well . For the first build its pretty damn good , will be my ROM of choice that's for sure.Cant wait for the next builds to be released.
Only thing that i can fault is when you install an app and the icon is added automatically to your home page it seems to be cut off at the bottom , but deleting the icon and adding it from the app drawer again remedies that problem ( anyone else have that ?) Not sure it that's a problem with Apex as I'm using a theme on it with custom Icons.
On the navigation bar when you add new icons they show as "reflected " in the selection menu but don't seem to work in reality , but I'm making some new ones that you can add pretty much exactly the same as the ones in the ROM with a reflection, anyone wants them send me PM and i will send them over.Got a few more to do but wont take that long.
Apart from that its a sweet ROM ! Loving it big time
Plzzzzzz...........need it for P3100 too...........

You're always left out on these. I was flashing 3100s on my 3113 but obviously mine has no phone function :silly:
I'm digging this so far. Can't seem to find anything wrong except for getting the screen to rotate when using trebuchet. Besides that all is hunky doory. Thanks! :thumbup:

what about some themes? Where can I find different nav buttons and theme colors
