Were you running TWRP or CWM for your recovery prior to flashing? I noticed your question a couple posts back.

*the OP states to use CWM........if you're running TWRP you can always flash marcusant's 'restore-CWM' zip, this immediately switches you over to CWM.........you can always switch back to TWRP afterwards by flashing Nyan5.

Yeah... i only stated use CWM in the OP, because at the time i first created this thread TWRP didn't exist for our phone. If someone is able to get it to work with TWRP i will be more than happy to change the OP to say so.

    What is this?
    This is a zip file that you will flash through CWM that allows you to install and customize MIUI v4. Once you choose the zip in CWM you are presented with a GUI that will allow you to select the kernel you want as well as what extra apps you would like installed, including what launcher you want. Once you have chosen all of your extras then it will install MIUI v4 with those options included. Right now it is very basic, but I keep adding options week by week.

    Current Version
    Version Beta 5 - 6/10/2012 (hosting provided by Marcusant) min.us mirror
    Normally I run these through the paces, but I won't have time to test this. Let me know if any problems occur.

    Instructions

    If comming from any version of MIUI ICS:
    • Always make a backup
    • Flash with CWM
    • Follow the on screen instructions
    • Button Configuration:
    • Up/Down = Volume Keys
    • Accept/OK = Camera Key
    • Back = Soft Touch Back Button
    • Touch screen works for the non-button items

    If you are currently not on ICS MIUI use the following instructions provided by rootxda
    1. Flash back to Stock after making backup...I flashed back to FC09 not deodoxed. Let Reboot
    2. Flash Clockwork Mod
    3. Once it goes back to CWM, then I converted BML to MTD. This will leave you in a bootloop. Pull Battery....Three Finger Salute, then
    4. Flash another MIUI rom first, once it loads up completely like everyday use, turn off phone.
    5. Then go back to CWM and flash v4
    6. It seemed to flicker to me at first, but keep screen on and run a couple minutes. Then Modifiy to your Desires!!

    Known Bugs

    • All currently known bugs should be fixed.

    Suggestions
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    If you managed to come across a bug, which at this point wouldn't surprise me, let me know and I will try to fix it as soon as possible.

    Oh and of course, the usual jargon that I am not responsible if you somehow managed to mess up your phone or for that matter your computer.

    If there are any apps or other things you would like included, just let me know, I would like to accomodate as many people as i can.

    • Updated Nyan Colonel to V4.1 provided by Marcusant

    • Installer will actually flash a working 2.3.16 MIUI v4, just like the last non-test build

    Once a new Epic MIUI gets an official release, I'll do a huge update that will fix most if not all of the issues that some people seem to be having.

    You should be able to take a currently installed MIUI and overwrite it with this just fine. I for some reason can't seem to make it work without needing MIUI installed to begin with, but I think the next big update for our MIUI will help with solving this issue.

    As for the beats... I'll look into including that. My end goal is to be able to include crap loads of mods like that so people can customize their MIUI experience as little or as much as they want.
