Ace tweeted that his x2 screen was smashed by his wife in a fit of rage. I don't want to pass judgement, but it was his wife that forced him off xdev. Now this?

So he's now asking for a donated x2. Otherwise, I'd say that development of miui for the X2 is dead.

If you want to donate an x2 to ace, contact him on twitter at @aceoyame

I would send mine but the only backup I have is a Droid X my son wouldn't talk to me after that he wants mine for GTAIII. My Storm just died. And just was able to turn my service back on yesterday. Im kinda in a rock and a hard place right now really wish I could help. Sorry. :-( I believe in helping. If any one has a cheap and I mean cheap decent phone laying around I could buy to send this one out let me know.

Thats ok its not what happens to me, its how I handle it after it happens I dont let it stop me it just slows me down. All about what I have to offer in the end. I want to help everyone in this DX2 community. I wont see any of the development for the DX2. Community but it would make all of you considerably a lot happier. For me it would actually put a smile on me face knowing I could help

I looked at his twitter and from what I took from it, its a whole new ROM. MIUI 4 based on ICS. Not an update to this ROM. But I could be wrong.

I've never restored a nandroid from someone els's backup. But I would assume that you put it in the clockworkmod folder that is created on your SD card when you do a backup. So it should be in clockworkmod/backup/"nandroid file". then just use BSR to restore the backup

The only other thing I have ever run was the dual core script and that was it supercharger always worked good at first for me but after a few weeks it seemed as though it would get more and more laggy....but that was just my experience almost everyone swears by supercharger so it may have well been I just didn't have it set up ideally

I think this is my favorite rom for the X2 so far. Stable, quick, nice theme options, the best Settings menu I've ever played with and after a supercharge, great battery life. If only the MIUI Control Panel from the ICS versions could work on this GB build.

    MIUI4DX2 Beta 1​


    Bear with me for the awful quality of the screenshots. Screenshots crash the system server. Took these photos with my iPod Touch.

    FQJQvs.jpg
    5GQeks.jpg
    7q7css.jpg

    To see the screenshots in large size, goto: http://imgur.com/a/n63L9

    This wouldn't have been here without the combined efforts of all the devs who worked on 2nd-init and CM7 so thanks to all and of course thanks to aceoyame (I DID NOT MAKE THIS AT ALL, JUST POSTING IT ON BEHALF OF ACEOYAME).

    Note:
    This requires Dragonzkiller's modified BSR (posted in CM7 thread and linked here for convenience).

    Includes:
    • Same Hardware working as CM7 i.e. CDMA/3G, WiFi, Bluetooth, Camera.
    • ICS Framework
    • MIUI US apps
    • MIUI Control panel
    • Black Ice theme default

    Known Issues:
    • MIUI's camera FC's on saving pictures. This release is using CM7's camera app which works
    • Screenshots are crashing system server
    • The Black Ice Theme may not apply fully on install. Just choose it in the theme manager after install and you should be good to go.
    • FM and HDMI is not working

    How to Install:
    1. Nandroid Backup
    2. SBF to 2.3.4 unless you are already there.
    3. Root your Motorola Droid X2.
    4. Install the Motorola Droid X2 Bootstrap Recovery (BSR).
    5. Put the MIUI4DX2 zip and the dragonzkiller's patched BSR apk on the external SD card.
    6. Boot into BootStrap Recovery.
    7. YOU MUST WIPE DATA AND CACHE! This has 4.0 framework and is very different from CM7's or any other ROM's 2.3.x framework.
    8. Install the MIUI4DX2 zip.
    9. IMPORTANT! Wipe data and cache (factory reset) and wipe dalvik cache!
    10. Boot your phone into MIUI. (You will probably have to activate if you didn't after you SBF'd and setup your Google account here.)
    11. Install the patched Motorola Droid X2 Bootstrap Recovery (BSR). (This can be found in the download section of this post. Once you have MIUI4DX2 installed, you MUST install this BSR!)
    12. Go into the Android Market and update the apps on the phone.
    13. Sit back and enjoy MIUI on your DX2!
    14. Never user RomManager! NEVER DELETE ANYTHING FROM PREINSTALL!


    NOTE: If you get a hang on the M after the install, it may be because you did not wipe data and cache. Try getting into stock recovery by having the phone off, pressing the Vol Down and Power Buttons until the "Fastboot" appears on your screen, scroll DOWN until you see the "Android Recovery" and press Vol Up. You will then see an android with an exclamation point. Press BOTH volume buttons and scroll down to "Wipe Data." Press the power button to select it and scroll down to "Yes" and select that. Then reboot and WAIT! The initial boot takes the longest. If this still doesn't work, THEN SBF and follow the directions above EXACTLY.

    Using the Patched Bootstrap Recovery With MIUI4DX2
    In order to get into recovery with MIUI4DX2 you ABSOLUTELY MUST download the patched BSR APK located in the download section of this post! There was a problem with the "hijack" name. It is conflicting with the CM7 hijack (MIUI uses CM7 hijack). NEVER install the original BSR while in MIUI4DX2! This is a guaranteed way to boot loop your phone! It might not boot loop the first couple of reboots, but it will... Eventually!

    Download:
    Put these on your EXTERNAL sd card.
    MIUI4DX2 Beta 1 md5 sum: eeb013fceeb06e6ca412e3b80484aa13
    Patched BSR APK by dragonzkiller

    Stay tuned for upcoming releases:
    Next release will have added scripts, a few fixes and possibly working FM - via aceoyame twitter

    YOU CAN POST BUG REPORTS HERE, BUT IDEALLY PING ACEOYAME ON TWITTER @aceoyame.

    P.S.: You can donate to aceoyame by sending him a beer to paypal at: schmidt_nathan2002@hotmail.com

    Peace \m/

    Wow, have you ever had to do something like what Ace has been doing? He DOES have a full-time job and is married, so he's doing this on his own time in addition to balancing a work load and marriage.

    ACE is having to take MIUI code and get it working on a device it wasn't written for specifically. In the case of what he was having issues with, it's not open-source. Apparently, the MIUI team owns it and doesn't release the source, so he is at their mercy right now. And, with this not being an official MIUI release (just like CM7 isn't an official Cyanogenmod release), Ace has to rely on others to help out and not the MIUI team. It's not like he HASN'T been working hard at this.

    Seems a little ungrateful and it's that attitude that has caused other developers to leave XDA and not develop for Android phones.

    I can understand if you paid him to deliver you something, but considering he's doing this and not charging us a penny for it (only asking for donations), could we show him some more respect?

    Let's instead be grateful and thankful that he even got us a very functional and sustainable MIUI build.

    Not trying to belittle you or anything, but the post just came across wrong. If you meant no harm by it, then I apologize, but I've seen too many developers scared away when people make comments like what you just did.

    Just noticed that the top bar battery doesn't work either.

    Easiest way to get top bar to work is

    1) Change to top bar in settings
    2) Go to the MIUI control panel app
    3) Change the color of the top bar under color settings
    4) Go back to Battery settings and click "Show battery" off and then on

    Then it should show up.

    FYI For everyone

    If you see Android System using quite a bit of battery (like on mine) you can use TiBU to freeze the app called "Telocation Provider". AFAIK this has something to do with the Chinese ROM and will not affect us or do anything good for us except drain battery. We use to disable it on my Captivate and Inspire.

    Also, apparently there is a wake lock issue and thats why Android OS is using 50% CPU on my phone lol.

    Just wanted to share a helpful tip for us Droid X2 MIUI users since a lot of the themes arent the right resolution for us. Maybe some of you could find this useful. There are also a lot of themes that have been converted by users in the thread already as well.

    Ok as posted in the older thread when sitting on the home screen and pressing the up volume rocker 2 to 3 time it causes a hot reboot, coupled with that the sound settings are taking effect or something because I get sound on and off on the system. example I have it set to click when selecting an item and it doesn't, however the unlock sound does work. The music player doesn't play, it gives you about 2 secs of play (no sound) and then stops. It doesn't FC or anything just doesn't work.

    I have tried a reboot to fix some of these with no luck.

    EDIT: Changing from the default theme fixed the sounds issues.

    Slim!
