Is MIUI stable/reliable for daily use?

---

Just got my brother a Desire. He is new to Android.
On all of my Android devices, I've never used MIUI, but he likes the iOS look.

I have just installed the MIUI-XJ on it, and it does seem very sleek and I love how it just seems like a totally different phone but my concern is if it would be stable enough for him to use daily? He would be leaving the country and doesnt know how to mod and such. That being said, he needs something reliable.

I think its either MIUI or coolexe's new BravoS ROM, with Espier launcher installed.

yes... its very much reliable n fast rom as compared to other roms.... i m using it for last 3 months..... near zero fc... very unique look.... very much customizable... m in love with miui xj rom.

Very much indeed, it was my best Rom with loads of support. Teach him how to update OTA from MIUI and tell him to read MIUI thread. Within a month he will be addicted to flashing every week. Also, I recommend to use class 6 SD card with EXT4 with 1.5 Gb. For enough space to install apps

if he isnt going to be updating the rom for a long time, would it still be okay

Ive been running MIUI for 4 months now and its really stable. However I recommend MIUI AU instead of XJ, I've tried both and AU seems alot more slick. If you want to migrate just use the MIUI backup app and then flash AU and then restore from backup. Everything will be restored exactly as it was apart form widgets.

I also recommend using ManU 1.4 HAVS-AXI-CFS. from this thread.

TLDR: yes its stable but try MIUI-AU

Another vote for MIUI-AU (miui-au.com). Been using it for over 9 months without any problems.
I have switched to other roms every so often to see what's changed but I'm always going back.

MIUI is very stable. Up until previous week I was still using the version from a month ago. The weekly changes are usually small bug fixes and translation updates.

No, it will blow your Desire into pieces.

What version of MIUI AU do you recommend?

Allways use the latest. That is a simple rule to obey.
