Miui in English and compatible?

I just tried the Miui rom real quick and i loved it! But it's unusable bc the camera doesn't work and some things are still in chinese. So does anyone know if there's a updated version? Or can someone suggest a rom that's similar, i love the idea of no apparent drawer like the iphone. Any ideas? Thanks

You need to head to MIUI developers and download one of the past three or so versions of the ROM. I'm running the 12.31 latest, but I think the 12.11 was my favorite.
MIUI-Devs I'd also recommend running it with one of the Savage Kernels.

Yea I ran the 12.11 and the 12.24. I preferred the 12.11 also, seemed all around more smooth and fluid. Went back to cm6 though. Overclocked, its just so fast, smooth and better!

this is the exact same thing as rom manager from clockwork

Way more options than Rom Manager. Should be quite useful. Thanks Linsalata. Will press button also.

You need to look through all the settings the ROM Manger part is just one window on the app this has a lot more options then rm.

Looks nifty. Seems like it has a few more features to it than Rom Manager does by itself.

Just downloaded it and changed my fonts in a jiffy. Looks nice at first, will see later if it brings any ill effects. I think some of the parameters as vm heap size and autokiller size are best not played with. Anyone know how to avoid app names in app drawer being cut off after font change, or is it impossible to avoid with fonts other than default?

You would need to change the size of the fonts there is a app for it on the market I don't remember the name off hand.
And I used it to change vm heap with no problems I've used fix permissions as well and it seems to work.
I've played with some other things as well with no issues so far I really want to know if the battery icon changer works I'm on deck 1.3d right now so no point to try it but it would be cool if it does and the dev adds more icons.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Is there any reason to fix permissions even if you don't get any force closes? I think rom developers assign the needed values themselves so I'm not comfortable doing it and potentially compromising roms stability. I could change wireless scan interval. Also it would be better you posted in general Android forums.

What? No.
The free app is OK, but all of the useful tools are unlocked only in the paid version.

I have a question,
You guys know that ROM manager requires CWM. Now I have Amon_RA on my phone, if I install this app will it try to replace my recovery or will it use what I have?

To use Tom manager you have to use clockwork .. it will force an install.

Jelly Bean RAM Hog

OK guys after spending two days with the new Samsung official software I was wondering if anyone else thinks that its a RAM hog. I have to keep killing the apps in the task manager otherwise I see lag while opening apps and things. Anyone else think this? Or could this possibly be because I quickly loaded about 40 apps onto the device? Any thoughts? Personally I hope Samsung will just improve and mature the software and it will get smoother. If not I might grab one of those deodexed ROMs.

I heard that Android loads apps in RAM for faster use unlike Windows. So if you close them, it loads them again, and that causes more bettery use. So why don't you try the phone without closing apps and compare which works better. Some poorly written apps cause lag and consume alot of system resourses. They should be closed and better be uninstalled.

Get OMEGA 27. It is very snappy. Make sure you do a complete wipe meaning formatting system and reinstalling all your apps.
It is very snappy. Do a custom install and choose to install or not install V6 SUper Charger which always leaves 200 mb of free ram. Your phone won't multitask as well but it will keep everything fluid.
Although I optioned not to install V6, and everything has been perfectly fine.
YOu can always install or uninstall mods thanks to OMEGA FILES that comes with the phone. Highly recommended.

I just did a Google search of it and it seems that the quadrant score is fairly low and about the same as stock? Is that true and reflective on the ROMs performance?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

So I had a quick look around and I think it would be between the RonenROM and Omega v27. Thing I can' stand about custom ROMs is the frequent updates and having to reinstall ROMs and that. Anyway, I might chuck one if them on. Any thoughts?

Why are you worried? I stuck with Omega 13 for months. You should only force an update if you were:
1. Trying a test rom and then official came out.
2. Or if it has problems and a X.1 version came out.
Omega only updates every time a leak rom appears but that doesn't mean you have to update.

I haven't checked quadrant but the point of Jelly Bean is that it implements a better use of a GUI than ICS. So quadrant isn't going to take those kind of things into account.
Omega 27 is working better than Indies last ICS for me which was 13.1

quadrant doesn't mean a thing about how snappy the rom is.
Uninstall quadrant as it serves no REAL purpose.

stock odexed here, just cleaned up 300mb of bloatware. RAM at the end of 2 days is 600MB used, didn't cleaned up RAM. You better don't cleanup, it will just piss off the apps and will consume more juice.

[Q] Best tweak [MOD] for RAZR M?

What is the best tweak MOD for the RAZR M?
Battery Life: TESTING...
Smoothness/speed: Pure Performance X Gold Edition
Features: Pimp My ROM
Pure Performance X Gold Edition
Pimp My ROM
CrossBreader
Fly-On
ODEX (Compatible with any of the above)

I have to go with x-breeder, its been my go to mod for a while now. If i remember correctly pimp my rom can help "pimp" a stock rom which is pretty cool.
Its worth noting that I have not used fly-on and am still on a 4.2.2 Rom.

SD swap. As implemented in the Avsitralia deodexed mod rom. Basically renders internal for system use. You can still use internal if you want.

YEah, I tried out Pimp My ROM... that was a fail.
Both the Aroma & App versions failed to create a rescue.zip, along with all of their other features.
Switching to crossbreeder...

It works in a totally different way than XBreeder, and I'm pretty sure you can use them together. Also, the issues with many of the those types of mods is that they eat battery. They claim to save on battery, but I've tested a lot of them and almost every one of them eats up battery.

I think I'm starting to notice that... But it defiantly does what it says, best performance I've ever had on this.

Yeah, with every mod that I've run the phone will fly, but with performance comes battery drain.

I used to use Supremacy, but it's pretty old and is not updated. However, it is a real light init.d script that doesn't touch build.prop at all. I would use this on stock CM and helped and didn't drain the battery much at all. On any ROM that's not stock CM, I only run XBreeder. A lot of ROMs have tweaks build in that we can't see, so I just leave it up to developer to give us a good product.

Haven't really seen any noticeable battery drain on xbreeder but not doing any scientifically sound tests... Just general use
Sent from my XT907 using Tapatalk 4

OK so I pulled my old Dinc out and fired up 4.2.2 on it with the performance and xbreeder mods... Wow! It competes with my RAZR m when it doesn't have the mod, and it doesn't kill the battery either!
I figured out the battery consumption problem also
It is not in any of the mods, it is your wakelocks.
I've found "Google Services" as a whole is the big bad wolf to look out for. I suggest turn off all location related services (NlpWakeLock). Also make sure NFC is turned off if you really don't ever use it.
I suggest flashing both xbreeder AND Pure Performance for best results.

Hi, can't give you specific rom. Right now I am using the rom and kernel combo you said, so far so good with performance antutu 37900+.
What I can tell you is that, you can play around because you can always go back to stock unrooted. Just read properly and follow instructions.

Can't remember on top of my head which ROM was but I got 15+ hrs screen time, no FC whatsoever even though I got it from Apple Appstore. Also I can run any Windows executable file on it. It's superior!
That's the most stable ROM I got.
Again, it is based on my experiences
