Do I have to follow step 3, download and install ROM Manager app? Because I already have ClockworkMod Recovery that was included in the CF-Root from Chainfire.

Also, could you tell me the difference between this MIUI ROM and the MIUI ROM from bmarko82?

Screenshots added to the OP.

As for why people should flash this rom over other MIUI roms? It's just more choice for people. We fix things that MIUI leaves broken in most cases, and it simply provides more choice for those who like MIUI, but enjoy the little tweaks we do to take it in a different direction from the stock MIUI.

As your know there isn't many Kernel's for the SGS 2 (MIUI /CM) related. We haven't made our own kernel yet for the SGS 2 and as such we are using "2.6.35-MIUI-g31db975bmarko", so in essence yes we are using BMarko's Kernel, which we are thankful for!

Credits to the CM team and Bmarko for the kernel. ;)

However as Alan (lttldvl) has said the framework for the SGS 2 is modified with our SGS improvements and stableness (which others have grown to love).

I hope this clears this little issue!

Thanks, but what is the different between this and the already available miui rom.. the only thing I could see is tw4launcher and gallery 3d, that I can install manully.. I guess that it not the same as galnet for galaxy s 1 where there is touchwiz frame-work built in with samsung apps..

    The "different Framework" think IS actually a real answer. A different Framework can mean ALOT.

    In terms of looks - Its the same as stock MIUI. The changes are like "under the hood". Galnet is creating their own MIUI Framework so they can actually do their work and fixes that the official chinese MIUI team isnt actually doing, or doing very slowly. Plus, Galnet incorperates parts of the Samsung Firmware and merges it with the MIUI Framework. That means -> In the future, when the Samsung TouchWiz Framework files are properly inserted into the Galnet MIUI Framework, we would be able to use Samsung Stock Apps and Widgets with MIUI.

    Plus, Galnet has a way bigger chance of removing bugs and adding personal tweaks to the system since they got a better overview of things with their Framework.

    One nasty thing has already been resolved: The battery drain bug.

    NONETHELESS: bmarko deserves alot of credit, more than just the kernel. He did the pioneer work to port MIUI and did a pretty darn good job doing it. I hope that the Galnet Team and bmarko can kind of work together in the future.

    Correct. Even Samsung hasn't been able to fix the Gingerbread battery drain bug yet ;)
