Comes with, everything else is downloadable via Market

Segnaro has the 1.6.10b out, his comes with the NEO Kernel, which is very good imho. I've only been running this official one for a few hours without a batt calibration, but it seems that its draining quicker than Segnaro's.

I flashed this MIUI after flashing CM7 nightly 24 and got force close on everything, like it wouldn't stay out of my screen, basically nothing would work and I had no service. Any ideas?

Also, what is the actual difference between this and Segnaro's ROM? If I flash his latest ROM, the 1.6.10b ROM, will I have the basbeband loss problem?

After the first time flashing it after cm7 and running into issues I odined back to stock, flashed bionix, miui easy install, and then this.


Incredibly responsive and snappy, I'm impressed
Battery life is good. Played with it hardcore for 45minutes and only ate about 5%. Will see of this is the case throughout.
SMS mms working well
Camera crashed on me a few times though....

Overall I'm very happy. Guess I found my new daily driver :D

Did you have service afterwards? I've had no luck with any of the posted methods. I've been trying since yesterday (around 20 or so attempts). Finally giving up... :-(


UPDATE: I didn't give up and I flashed v1.6.3 from the miui.us site. However, I got the same baseband problem. NOW I give up!... maybe.

great rom

I followed the instructions on post 43 and it worked perfectly. I did try to flash the cm7 kb5 modem afterwards and lost baseband so had to do it all over again. Flashed nero 6 with no problems. Great rom, really liking this Miui, it has lots of free themes to play with too.

    MIUI for Beginners

    Source: http://en.miui.com/a-10.html

    Already flashed MIUI ROM? OK, pick up your phone now, let’s start our happy journey of MIUI ROM.

    The first step: selecting apps

    Various apps will greatly enrich your cell phone, so firstly let’s select the apps to your taste. Use the Android Market and download what you would like. If you are using a backup app and restoring apps from a previous ROM, only restore the apps and not the data. Otherwise that will create a lot of force close issues.
    pic111.jpg


    Tip: How to copy files from the computer to the phone? First connect your phone to your computer via data cable, pull down the notification panel from the top of the phone, click “USB connected”, and then click "Turn on USB storage”.

    After copying, do not forget to select the option of “Turn off USB storage”, otherwise "File Manager” in the phone will not be able to find the sd card, as it is being occupied by the computer.

    Now I have a lot of apps, how to put them in order?

    All apps successfully installed are listed on the desktop, however, they may not be in the order you want, how to put them in order?
    pic112.jpg


    Long press an app icon and then you may move it freely. When it is moved to the screen border, the screen will automatically switch to the next screen.

    How to add a screen? Use two fingers to pinch on the desktop to enter screen thumbnail mode. Then you may add or delete screens.

    How to delete an app? Long press the app icon you want to delete, drag it on top of the trash box and click OK to delete it.

    The second step: let's make your phone different.

    A phone without style is nothing remarkable, so let’s make your phone different!
    pic113.jpg


    Changing wallpaper: Click Menu button on the desktop, select “Change Wallpaper” to replace the wallpaper. In addition to the existing wallpaper in the phone, thousands of pieces of wallpaper are also available online.
    Changing theme: Themes make great changes to your interface style. Click “Theme Manager” on the desktop to select the theme you like. Also, more online themes are available online.

    Selecting ringtones and more: click “Settings” on the desktop to set call and notification ringtones. In “Personalization” under “Personal” tab, you may find more options.

    The third step: it’s time for some advanced techniques!

    Well, you are no longer a beginner now, so let’s learn some advanced techniques.

    pic114.jpg


    Adding widgets on the desktop: press the Menu button on the desktop, select "Edit Mode", and then click the icon on the upper right corner to access the interface of “Add Widgets”. Choose your favorite widget on the top, and then drag it to the screen below.

    Using folders to manage desktop apps: in the interface of “Add Widgets”, drag [Folder] to the desktop. You may drag multiple apps into folders to classify them. After opening the folder, you may click the edit icon in the upper left corner to rename the folder.

    Using toggles panel to improve efficiency: drag the notification panel down from the top, click "Toggles" to go to the toggles panel (It goes to the toggles panel in default of notice.) On the panel are listed the most commonly used toggles, you may click to quickly enable or disable a toggle. Long press on the icon will launch the settings for that icon.

    Guest mode: enable the “Guest Mode” toggle in the panel, and your calls and text messages logs will be hidden, and all installed applications cannot be removed. You may have a try when you need to show your phone to guests or children.

    Importing contacts or binding accounts: you may use some apps to import a batch of contacts, or bind Google account directly in "Settings"> "Personal"> "Accounts & Sync Settings" to sync contacts at any time.
    How to print screens? Press "Menu" key and "Volume Down" key at the same time to print a screen. The printed image is saved in the directory of MIUI in the SD card.

    How to copy files from the computer without using the data cable? In case of a Wi-Fi connection, enter “File Manager” on the desktop, select the tab of "Remote Administration" to start the service, and then you will get an address. Enter the given address on the computer, then you may copy files without using a data cable!
