Isn't MIUI V5 due out March 1st? Will you be able to to simply add merge code like CM does currently for future releases?

Also, as someone hesitant to switch to anything other than stock (which is so functional)...how does MIUI incorporate Google Apps?

The same as CM10, the thing is that the look & feel of MIUI is completely distinct like Sense or TW, so a lot of people use it for the style of it, like an iOS type thing, plus it does have a lot of nice poweruser options.

That being said, I may have to start from scratch with a different base because although this rom is somewhat stable, the few bugs it has are very obnoxious, the phone call issue is annoying, and on my native phone which actually seems similar to yours for MIUI ports (lol), It has broken GPS which I assume will carry over.

MIUIv5 core code will be open source, so I think it's possible you'll be able to source build it, and if this is the case I can make a very spectacular rom for this phone.

For now I'm stuck trying to port, the build posted is not really functional as a phone but more as a fun toy so people can see what all the fuss is about, although I do hope to make it fully functional in the near future.

Re: [Rom]MIUI 3.2.8 XT925 ALPHA

Hey I got this to boot on the 926 I know this ROM is not meant, I get an error saying unauthorized

Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using xda premium

Tquetski.,
anyway you can make a miui v5 patchrom build....built off a verizon firmware?
Id be happy to host it on my website.

Ill keep trying myself, but my linux knowledge is minimal, and I keep failing.
thanks

I should mention I have a pretty bad arse V5 BuuF theme, i started in the photon thread, just picked up my xt926 and eagirly awaiting a MIUI v5

are there any active devs working on miui V5?
imam start reading on porting (don't expect anything, but I cant just sit here and wait without trying)and perhaps give a shout out to th3bill, who was maintaining the port for the photon.maybe he can point me in the right direction
peace

There are three ways you can do a PatchRom build, By 'scratch building' the proper resources by hand via decompiles, by doing an ADB pull on your phones stock rom to obtain target files and by just building if the phone is supported by MIUI which this one is not.

So it really only leaves one option.

Make sure your Linux Build-env is set up correctly

mkdir patchrom

cd patchrom

repo init -u git://github.com/MiCode/patchrom.git -b jb

repo sync

This will pull all the needed Jellybean files from MiCode Repo

the next part is a bit more obnoxious, make sure your phone is connected and make sure ADB is in proper working order..

open a terminal in your main Patchrom folder, and:

source build/envsetup.sh

mkdir razrhd

cd razrhd

adb reboot recovery

Your phone will now begin booting into recovery, let it do it's thing, when recovery has loaded run the following commands in terminal

../tools/releasetools/ota_target_from_phone -r

It will begin dumping everything PatchRom needs from your phone, resulting in a StockRom.zip, you can flash it to make sure everything is in working order or not; it really does not matter

Run the following command

cp ../i9100/makefile .

This will copy the i9100s Makefile over to the working folder, which will need to be modified to suit the phone and the stock-specific APKs, etc.

Once this is done run

make workspace

make firstpatch

make fullota

And PatchRom will begin to build, being an unsupported phone expect to see errors in your life here & there, If a FullOTA.zip is created in the Out folder of 'razrhd' then you have successfully patched Stock, If there are errors they will need to be resolved before Stock can be built.

By the way all of the commands I've listed are case-sensitive and must be followed verbatim for the most part, regretfully I do not have the RazrHD's target files from stock so I can't do this myself; manual decompile is too much of a pain in my ass.

I know that uhm, It will be a little awkward since this is not the same as porting, but PatchRom yields results if you are tenacious enough for it

is this Rom still on development?
