I have talked with MIUI US and they say that the only reason they aren't working on MIUI for the Atrix is that they dont have the device.
I would like to either:
A.) Start a fund to purchase an atrix for MIUI US.
OR
B.) Donate them an atrix from someone.
If you would like to help get MIUI on the atrix let me know. I would really like to see it ported to the atrix.
I'd rather have cm7, but I hope you guys get miui a device (simply to attract more people to the atrix)
Tell them to set up a pay pal donateable account and Ill send 5 bucks their way.
Generally if there is a cyanigen mod release they make a Miui, so once we get cm miui will likely be soon to follow.

If only someone had an Atrix or two that they didn't feel like keeping :/
I'd donate to that. I loved MIUI on the Captivate. I'm sure it'd be amazing on this phone. I'm not even all that worried about CM7 now that we have people developing it.

Yeah. I'd recommend not bothering until CyanogenMod is available first. Considering MIUI is loosely based on CM, they're not going to budge until that's ported and working.
what about the atrix we all donated for finding a way to unlock it. Now that we have a way.
Which atrix was that?

Yes agreed let's not commit fraud. Was a dumb idea.
I just bought an atrix on craigslist. I see many other listings for sale at 280 dollars, so its definitely possible.

That is a possibility... wonder what Tenfar would think about it since he hasn't been very active lately
Once a phone is donated, it is that persons property, you can't just ask them to send it somewhere else.
Anyways, MIUI NEEDS CM7 in order to run. There is no such thing as a phone that has MIUI but not CM7, because it's not possible. Once we have a working CM7, I'm sure they MIUI team would be happy to pick this up and then receive donations after the DEV is done. Which is the right thing to do. Let's not go throwing donations at people that haven't done work yet, please. This has been a problem many times in the past

Just out of curiosity, is there a standard or general amount people donate to developers? Is any amount too small? Like, if you were to donate a few dollars, would that be frowned upon, or is literally any amount cool?

This ^
No amount is too small and is always appreciated.
Think of it like an app in the market with a free version and a paid version. You try it out for free and really like what you have so you're willing to pay 1-5 bucks for the paid version just because. There is no reason why donations to devs can't also work on the micropayment method.
I was surprised to find people were donating to me... I've had everything from $2 up to $15.... I've personally given from $5-$20 to developers/themers.
I think the general rule is, if you want to donate a penny, you are a good person and it would not be frowned upon.
This is a good question. I've also wondered the same in the past.
I like to think i'm buying the team or person (whoever does that particular release) a 6-pack ($6-$8). Then i go buy me a 6-pack and i flash away!

It's an acer thing...i dont think money will help..
should help if we make a list with people that want to donate for the problem might draw a good crowd...
it might help even more to get enough donations together to buy a device to send to a well known developer. usually where the problem lies is that they do npt have money to go and buy another device since they have already invested in other ones. once a really well know developer gets their hands on the device we have is when big things start to happen. you just gotta find one willing to accept the device and hack it.

Yes, it'd be great to have a custom honeycomb rom especially since the source has not and never will be released (until ice cream sandwich, anyway).

By now many of you guys have seen the twitter post by r2DoesInc that says he will soon be getting a Fascinate. I have been talking with r2 about getting the funds for him too get one for him and his team to dev on. I was originally gonna pay all $200 for a used one but since I'm still in high school and money is hard to come by I don't see that happening. That is where the rest of you come in. I have spoken with r2 again and he said if we all donated to him he would keep track of the money we give him and put it towards a used fascinate. I am gladly donating $100 to him so all we really need to raise is $100 I think it's a small price to pay for two high quality roms
*EDIT* Another Forum member by the name of Legato525, has offered r2 his fascinate for only $100 so the new goal in now only $100. R2 will be accepting donations until the 7th of June which is when Legato can ship the device. Any amount that is left to pay i will pay personally. Let's all team up to get r2 a Fascinate! *EDIT*

Lol..Bad memories from Team Whiskey I presume?
Well there were several "devs" who wanted money before developing anything back from oct '10
Well for one, I didn't ask to be donated a fascinate, I was approached and asked, 'if we get you one will you work on it.' I've already been donated an Eris, I got omfgb and omgb on those fairly quickly.
And I'm not asking for money before I dev, I already officially support five devices. I'm not just some random guy
Anyways, if the money is raised for a fascinate, the phone will be used by me and t3hh4xx0r member LinuxMotion. He will spearhead the project as I focus more on adding new features and don't like to have all my time caught up in one project.
I'm here to help, no need to imply that I'm trying to scam anyone.

Well you can understand why some of use are reluctant. Many donated to Birdman because he wanted a Fascinate, then he got one, got everyone riled up when he said he got Gingerbread booting, then nothing. Months later, he still hasn't done a thing for us and ditched us for the Thunderbolt. Then the same happened with Team Whiskey. Asked for donations for a Fascinate, told us work had started, and then disappeared.
Well this is a hard platform. When I was first approached about getting a fascinate, I made sure to make no promises. I can't say for sure if ill be able to get the builds running or not, but I CAN promise that Linuxmotion and I will try our hardest.

As bobloblaw posted, it's at $150 now, still has over 3 hours til bidding ends. That last half hour is when the price really starts to go up. I bought a Fascinate on Ebay with a winning bid of $212.50 and it was at $125 with like 2 hours left until bidding closed. Most end up going for $250 that I have seen.
About 200 is what I've seen on swappa.

I think they are creating multiple builds in a day so they have to use future dates to name them. I look at it as a positive, they are making an effort to finish this one.
I've been back on EC05 rooted for a few days now. It's much more sluggish than Gingerbread, but everything works and NO REBOOTS!

Don't you see this is exactly what they want? They're purposely taking their time for an update so you'd buy their new phone.
This is a thread where people can post the amount of money they are willing to donate to the devs which succeed to port the Sense UI on the SGS II.
Starting with 20€ from me
Total so far: €85 + £60 + $275= $479.96
£10 for sense
Get a HTC anyway sense UI suck so hard !!

You guys do know that it will never happen. HtC is very protective of their UI. Can't count how many sense lookalikes have gotten C&D orders due to working to much like sense. Not to mention you missing needed drivers to make it work as well as the new sense can't be decoded completely.
I have to agree with the post above. However, as I have experienced many times with my old HD2, you never know.
Doubtful nonetheless.
Therefore I will give £20 if someone can prove me wrong.
