---

About BlendMIUI:This is a teamwork rom and everyone can contribute to our project if you like.Feel free to contact me if you have any great idea.

BlendMIUI Kernel sources have been posted at github.com/JasonStein

Since I'm busy these days and the latest rom is just nice to use so I decided not to update it for weeks.Today,I'm going to writte a short program to help you port MIUI to Xperia Arc and Neo in just few mintues which name is MIUI Speed-Porting Software and I'm still writting the program now.When I'm done,I will release the software and tell you guys how to use it to port the latest MIUI for your XPERIA ARC and NEO.I think it will be quite easy and friendly to use.

=======================================
[NEW] Changelog for V09

1.Update to MIUI 1.11.11 (details at www.miui.us)
2.Recompiled new kernel which greatly increases standby time.
3.Some tweaks trying to slove the deepsleep issue and reduce lags
4.Some tweaks trying to reduce FCs.


1.If you feel unhappy about the boot music you can delete the bootaudio.mp3 under media dic.
2.From now on I will concentrate my effort on making kernel with better battery preformance and if you want OC kernels or else plz goto DooM's MIUI kernel post.
3.I went to sleep 2 AM last night and battery drains from 85% to 83% for about 8 hours however it depends but I think it's better than ever.

=======================================
Changelog for V08

1.Update to MIUI 1.11.4 (details at www.miui.us)
2.New kernel with swap support
3.Some small fixes
3.New default theme: BlendUI (Progress:30%)
4.xLoud(I'm not sure wether it works)

If you feel unhappy about the new kernel you can try using powersaving kernel in V07.5.
If you are already on kernel in V07.5,you don't need to flash new kernel if you want.

=======================================
Changelog for V07.5 Hotfix & New Powersaving Kernel

About hotfix
1.Bravia Engine(I forgot to copy those two main files in my V07 rom)
2.Delete lock script to let new kernel works fine.

About New Powersaving Kernel:
This is a moded SEMC kernel using sources from FXP.I locked the maxium frequency from source and did some tweaks to fix the touch screen problem when using official one and I also add some goverors tring to solve the battery drain issue.
My friends and I have tested it for two days and I'm sure it works.For V07,you may loss 3%-5% battery per hour even you done nothing but for now,you will just loss 1% battery per hour and it's exactly 1%(Not in flight mode) which is cool for MIUI.However,it performs well.

I help JasonStein compiling the kernel from source

Thx for your support

don't forget to download wifi drivers :

https://github.com/freexperia/vendor_ti_wlan

then to compile : HOST_PLATFORM=msm KERNEL_DIR=~/android/sources ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/home/bhe/android/system/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/arm-eabi- make

change path for kernel sources and toolchain
you have to do it twice, somewhere in ap directory and somewhere in sta directory

you will need wifi modules matching your compiled kernel version

i feel really confused when compiling the wifi module

You mean somewhere in ap directory and somewhere in sta directory

but i can't find anywhere to compile the module

ashamed for my poor knowledge

anyway

Thx you for sharing
