You can try porting lewa os it is very similar to miui nearly same
Lewa os supports supports dual sim but I don't know about miui.

The answer is in your signature:
Oxygen hboot doesnt give so much space for additional stuff on /system
I am afraid you will have to make place or to erase some apps modded on my theme ( check your /data size folder) or just change your table partition like i did to Bravo Sense for example.
My theme works for others and me as well, screenshots freshly posted today
Hope it helps you
Loads of downloads but only a few thanks - I think because people use the xda app on their phone which (I believe) doesn't allow for thanks. I specifically logged on to the pc xda site to click thanks!!!
Wonderful theme, thanks man, really appreciate it.

Me to, I flashed lucid to give me a black market then oceanis over it. Im not overtly bothered about blue just the green I can't stand lol.Warning flashing lucid does interfere with the new g talk though, you will lose the video voice option. If you want that you can flash proper black by str355 first which will give you a black/grey and white market, doesn't interfere with gtalk. Long winded but I've tried other markets and end up losing the whole thing lol. I can't be bothered lately with adb and I'm not s-off.

Modded Market working for me
Install market through ClockworkMod Recovery or Root Explorer
Method 1 >>> ClockworkMod Recovery installation
- Copy zip file on your SDCard
- Go to recovery (if you don't know how look here > Recovery Mode... )
- In recovery mode choose option install zip from sdcard
- Now click on option choose zip from sdcard
- Find your zip file where you placed it on sdcard (your sgs)
- Now click on Yes - install Market_2.3.4_yourcolor.zip (example)
- Click on last option which says +++++Go Back+++++
- Choose now reboot system now option
- Wait till phone boots and enjoy your new market!
[ Installation script has been rewritten so it clears DALVIK cache and delete old market files (old version or updates) _ boot will take a bit longer then usual so DALVIK rebuids ]
Method 2 >>> Root Explorer "installation"
If you have any problem market not running or similar problems after CWM install.
Remove Market apk file or files completely from:
- /data/app file called com.android.vending-1.apk if there and
- from /system/app Vending.apk with Root Explorer or Super Manager.
Reboot to recovery and wipe (clear) dalvik-cache. After you deleted and clear dalvik-cache let phone boot (it'll take a bit longer since it rebuilds dalvik). Next step is to extract Vending.apk from zip file and copy it in /system/app folder. Again reboot to recovery and wipe dalvik-cache. If some trouble with file set right permissions >> in Root Explorer long press on apk file and it will open menu and from menu select Permission.
Reboot and everything should work.
Works for me at least.
Again Oxygen Hboot may doesnt give sufficient space for all apps modded on /system and /data. Modded market apk is bigger than the stock one !
Hope it helps you

People like me find it really impossible to switch back from ics to gb permanently. And its also impossible for me to keep using ics, with poor video recording and playback, GPS wakelock bug, crappy game performance and buggy bluetooth. And you can't keep ics and gb side by side with the original multirom since they need to be compatible with the same kernel. But with this app, you can
What is Tassadar's Multirom? See website and original thread
Features:
Apart from the existing features which were there in the original app, this has:
ROM switching:
This app changes kernels by creating boot.img backups and flashing them. Flashing hardly takes a second in gingerbread. In ics and higher, it may take a bit longer.
ROM zip modder (to flash directly sd-ext):
You can use this app to modify your ROM zip to flash directly to sdext. You can flash it with any recovery. The modified rom zip will have multirom embedded in its boot image. So, no need to flash multirom after installing every rom.
This method is experimental.
A few points worth noting here:
-- Modded zip names will have the prefix "mrom-".
-- The boot image (with multirom in it) of the last modded zip is stored at /sdcard/multirom/tmp_boot.img. You can simply rename it with any file manager.

Version history:
v1
Added boot.img backup / restore. (Backups are stored in /sdcard/multirom/)
Asks for default boot location after you flash.
Added back and reboot buttons in Updater, so that you can reboot right after flashing.
Enabled ICS theme and made some layout changes to suit with it.
v2
Now its possible to select a backup ROM as default after restoring boot image. (For those who keep 3 or mopre ROMS).
Fixed Czech translation
Fixed a minor bug which was there in the original app; it displayed "Multirom folder not found" instead of "No backups found"
v3
lots of bugs were introduced in the last version. Choosing backups should work correctly now.
v4
Now you can flash a rom to sdcard directly FROM ANY RECOVERY.
When modding your ROM zip, a preview of the updater script will be shown.You can edit it, if needed.
It is recommended to keep a copy of multirom.zip on sdcard. If you choose to download it from internet, it will be saved at /sdcard/multirom/multirom.zip.
You can now erase your default rom (on sdcard of course) directly from this app before flashing a new one. Go to "manage ROMs".
Also shows the size of your default ROM.
bug fixes.
v4.2
Script will mount sd-ext automatically before flashing in recovery.
if /sdcard/multirom/multirom.zip is found, it will use that for preparing zips.
v5.1
fixed "Cant move active ROM to backup!"
fixed absurd behavior and FCs during zip modding, which would happen if you cancel the process and try again.
shows detailed progress during zip modding.

How to install a new ROM in sd card
Just use the app to mod a ROM zip and flash the modded zip in recovery.
Simplified instructions for first time users
I have tested this method with cm9(arjen's nightlies) , cm10(rasheed's rom) , cm7(gingerblur) and stock roms(dynamite and resurrection).
Long method (only if the above process fails with certain ROMs):
Its somewhat similar to the original process here.
- If you haven't, perform up to step 2 of the original guide.
- Make nandroid backup (ur gonna need this). Wipe. flash ROM which you wanna to have on SDcard.
- Flash multirom.zip, even if you did earlier ( because everything gets wiped after flashing the ROM ). Get multirom.zip from http://tasssadar.github.com/multirom
- Backup ROM's boot.img with recovery (preferably AmonRA, because it lets u do selective backup). you need to copy the file to /sdcard/multirom/ later.
- Go to "MultiROM options" menu and select "Create from current ROM".
- Restore nandroid backup from beginning of this step and reboot.
How to switch ROMs:
1. (Only if you haven't done this before) Backup boot.img of current ROM
2.
Warning: To backup/restore a boot image, you need at least 160 MB of free RAM. This is not a big deal in gb (where u have 300+ MB of RAM). But in ics, you may need to free up RAM using a taskkiller. A bad flash will make your device unbootable. (you will still be able to boot in recovery though)

Easiest and best way to port CM7,CM9,CM10 Based ROMs to HTC Aria/Intruder/Gratia
Code:
I do not guarantee any successful porting.
I am not responsible for [B]bricked devices, dead SD cards, or a broken device[/B].
[B]YOU[/B] are choosing to make these modifications,
and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device,
I will laugh at you.
->Copied from some xda thread.
*****
But a rom, no matter how bad should *not* do any physical non recoverable harm to your device,flashing a rom or restoring a nandroid backup via cwm *should* immediately fix any problems what so ever.
And I will try to help in any ways I can.
I am NOT a developer, I can not code,compile,etc, I am only an android enthusiast with half a brain able to follow specific instructions.
This guide is actually somewhat a good combination of various "how to port roms"
guides found here on xda suited and very slightly modified for our beloved Aria.
Thanks to all of those threads and their writers.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Actual Tutorial starts here:
I will try to make this guide as straight forward as possible.
PORT ROM:
First you need to figure out what rom you are going to be porting.
For our Aria, The rom you want to port should belong to a device that has:
HTC brand (optional but recommended)
A ArmV6 CPU (VVVV important)
A HVGA Resolution (optional, any mdpi should do,if not just open the system apk files using 7zip and resize all the BIG images.)
The Rom needs to be:
CM7 BASED OR CM10 BASED OR CM9 BASED.
The full zip size less than 150MB(Recommended).
What Does Port Mean:
This simply refers to the rom you will be trying to port.
Recommended device to port from is the HTC Wildfire S a.k.a Marvel.
But any other device
BASE ROM:
What Does Based Mean:
It means that the rom should have similar sources and stuff,
Meaning you can only attempt to port a android 2.3 rom if you already have a 2.3 rom on the device.(In our case cm7).
So,
For porting 2.3 roms, chose cyanogenmod 7.2 as BASE.
For porting 4.0 roms, chose cyanogenmod 9 as BASE.
For porting 4.1 roms, chose cyanogenmod 10 as BASE.
ETC... I hope you get the point.
:fingers-crossed:
Thing you will need:
A good Zip extractor and compressor. (I use 7zip, its free. If you have winrar or something else,it will also do.)
Notepad++ (This thingy is awesome! And you need it for some stuff)
Android SDK(Not the whole thing, just adb zip from our sticky thread will do.)
Some Basic Android Knowledge, Root knowledge.
Mostly Common Sense.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 1:
Extract our device rom zip and name the folder AriaRom,
Extract our Port rom zip and name the folder PortRom.
Step 2:
Delete the following folders on the AriaRom/system folder:
App(You can keep some non conflicting indepent apps if you want)
Framework
Fonts
Media
Step 3:
Go to
Code:
PortRom folder/system
and copy:
App(You can keep some non conflicting indepent apps if you want)
Framework
Fonts
Media
and then paste them to AriaRom/system.
Step 4:
You need to open these two folders side by side(on windows, open both folders then right click on the task bar and click "Tile windows vertically").
The two Folders are:
Code:
[LIST]
[*]AriaRom/system/etc
[*]PortRom/system/etc
[/LIST]
In
Code:
etc/permission
folder copy all the permissions files in PortRom to your AriaROM folder except
Code:
platform
handheld_hardware
Then open init.d Folder in AriaRom and Delete Everything except
Code:
banner
and then copy all the files inside init.d folder of PortRom to init.d folder of AriaRom.
Step 5:
Now
Code:
AriaRom/system/buid.prop
and
PortRom/system/buid.prop
files using Notepad++
On AriaRom Build.prop make changes as you wish.
Code:
[LIST]
[*]ro.build.id=
[*]ro.build.display.id=
[*]ro.build.date=
[*]ro.modversion=
[/LIST]
Copy and replace these values from PortRom buildprop to Aria rom buildprop.
ro.config.ringtone=
ro.config.notification_sound=
ro.config.alarm_alert=
Also Copy anything you Find Extra and important-ish in ADDITIONAL BUILD PROPERTIES using common sense.(Not much major stuff, but if bootlooped, copy whole thingy.)
IMPORTANT Step of commons sense:
Open up both
Code:
META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script
using Notepad++.
Compare AriaRom AND PortRom line by line(on two tabs in notepad++ easily done).
Copy extra/additional lines from PortRom which are not present in AriaRom to aria roms updater script.
Step 6:
If You find any extra file or folder in system folder of PORTrom than copy them to your Ariarom system folder.
Finally, zip the
Code:
META-INF
system
boot.img
data(if exists).
folders/files togather and use "normal" compression if asked.
Name the zip to whatever you want, and walla you have successfully ported the rom!
:fingers-crossed:
Doing the above steps should land you a pretty solid rom, as solid as the base rom.
Still,Incase of problems:
If the ported rom does not boot:
Stuck at boot screen
Bootlooping
Then copy system/lib/
Code:
libandroid_runtime.so
libandroid_servers.so
libmedia_jni.so
files from PortRom to AriaRom system/lib.
It should boot, if it still doesnt, check the above steps and find out what you did wrong.
Common reasons could be:
Build.prop mess up
Updater Script mess up
Forgot to delete or copy file
After it boots,
Everything that worked on Base rom, should work on Ported.
Every problem on Base Rom will exist on Ported.
In case of root related problems(settings not being saved,system app FCs,etc), install a root app like titanium backup or something and check if it works,if it doesnt its surely root issue,just download and flash latest superuser zip.
If some FC,Port rom funciton not working,etc issues appear, you need to decompile framework-res.apk using apktool and change device specific xml files to ours.This is a part where I have the most trouble and suck at.
Just search xda for

I just tried to port the PACman ROM from Samsung Galaxy Ace to the Aria, but I am stuck at boot screen after following your tut, which is awesome by the way. Could you post a working build.prop and updater-script for this ROM? Maybe this will help me get it booting...

That's an Armv7 device.
Still I'm gonna download it & try.
In the meantime take a look at bootclass path.

I don't think so... the Samsung Galaxy Ace with device number S5830 should be Armv6, but in the Galaxy Ace Forums there is also a place for the Galaxy Ace II, which is Armv7. Maybe that's a bit confusing. But nims11 PAC-Man Rom is definitely for the Armv6 device.
hey man thnx for the tut but i tried porting the paranoid rom like you but i keep getting this error while flashing ( set_perm: some changes failed) i think it have something to do with the updater-script, could u upload the build.prop and the updater-script for me ? and btw why do we need the sdk ??

In that case you'll need to unpack both boot.img aka the kernel , fix bootclass path in init.RC by replacing it with the value from port roms init.rc.
Ill try to port that rom soon and upload a fixed boot.img (if I can get it to boot),if you don't beat me to it. it looks cool.
Why are SMARTphones soo... Freaking Dumb?
Bootclasspath is the same on both roms. So there must be a mistake in updater-script and / or build.prop. I've just messed up my updater-script, I guess, so I'll make a new one and post it later together with the build.prop.
I got this pac rom booting & everything operational except per app dpi(exists in port rom).
This rom works with the guide.

It should pretty much work,
If it doesnt, just send me the
Updater script
Build.prop
files of BOTH roms, And I'll have a look.
I wouldve tried myself but my aria has no network and has random reboot issues due to falling hard.

* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Where are Nightly builds ? : Our phone is not officially supported by CyanogenMod so no nightlies for now(?).
Screenshots:
There are no Google Apps bundled with CM ROMs, because Google asked Cyanogen to remove copyrighted apps from his roms,
so after flashing rom don't forget to flash Google Addon package.
Instructions:
- First time flashing SuperShendu9 to your U8800Pro (Or coming from another ROM)
Root the device and install ClockworkMod Recovery.
Perform a backup of your current ROM.
Perform a factory reset.
Wipe cache and dalvik cache.
Format the system and data partitions of your device.
Flash SuperShendu.
Install the Google Apps addon package.

awesome bro!.. i had feeling you would work on this ROM..
How do I go from CM 7.2 to this ROM? i have CWM 5.0.27 and have always been on GB.
Really nice work Nick, i just installed this rom and sometimes when i'm installing an app from my sdcard the system process does not respond even if the installation is successful and i just have to click wait. This does not happen if i install directly from the play store. Anyway, apart from this little thing everything seems to work perfectly.
Search button instead of power
Hi guys,
For All people Who wants to get Search Button back instead of POWER Behavier, follow the guide:
Open any else file manager (i prefer ROOT EXPLORER) go on SYSTEM/USR/KEYLAYOUT and you will see "Generic.kl", (Make sure you are on R/O). Hold on "Generic.kl" and open it as a "Text editor" scroll down the page till you found "key 217 POWER" and just replace "POWER" with "SEARCH"! Remember don't change anything else. Now hit on menu button and "Save and exit". You will be automatically created a "Generic.kl.bak" so don't worry if you mess something up. Now reboot your device and your are OK with the Button
System/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl -----> Text Editor ----> replace "key 217 POWER" -----> with "key 217 SEARCH" (without quotation marks [ NO "" ])
Respect the structure on the lines!!

Hello XDA'S Today i'm back with a useful guide/tutorial for ANDROID ROM PORTING
may have tried porting roms to their phones and has been succefull but most of the case is that we being end up in bootloops or cwm errors
So i'm dedicating this post for all users how are having a craze of rom porting or for atleast those wgo wanted to try rom porting
SO LETS START
There are two phases or rom porting
1) Its finding the correct port and source roms for ROM PORTING copying the files which is explained here
2) After a succefull port also the rom may not work properly ,we have to sort out the bugs to for a rom to become perfectly working
So with no more blahh blahh blahh Lets start the PORTING procedure :fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed:

And lastly Before you a port a ROM, make sure you asked permission from the Developer!
What you'll need:
WinRAR/7zip
Notepad++ (When developing, always use this)
Android SDK (For Logcatting & DDMS)
Some basic knowledge about Android
If you are on Linux/Unix/BSD use your favorite Archiving Tool & Text Editor.

for clarification
This method gives bootloop too often. It works only for very similar devices like Xperia J & Arc or Huawei u8818
Yes. This method gives a lot of bootloops. It only can be used on devices with hairline differences between specs.

Good evening to all, first of all thanks for the guide.
The rom part, it works most of the things, porting is a rom for nexus 5 to take on g2.

Do you have suggestions?
thanks
