You must do a factory reset prior to booting into the new ROM or you will encounter FC's and UI issues.

I originally ported MIUI to the Galaxy Exhibit but currently can no longer directly support it. I bricked my Exhibit back in June and moved on to a GSM Galaxy Nexus. The warranty is still valid so I could return the Exhibit for repair, but that's not my main priority right now. I might return to help this phone in the future but for now other members of the community are updating and supporting this ROM. I just update the OP so thanks to them for bringing life to an underappreciated ROM and keeping my first official release alive.

This is a first test build. Most everything is working from MIUI. This is a ported build based on the GSM Galaxy Nexus 2.3.16 MIUI English US build from MIUI.us and the CyanogenMod 9 KANG build for the Exhibit II from jocala. The on-screen buttons are enabled in this build. I should remove them in the next release because they consume space on the screen. The screen turns to static when navigating through menus that dim the background (popup selection).

Installation:
This has the same issues as CM9 for the exhibit II. For example Camera and VoIP are broken for now. If you can't tolerate the issues don't use this.
Download The miui_ancora_target.zip 180.25 MB
Flash the zip file in recovery as you would any other normal ROM.
You must do a factory reset prior to booting into the new ROM or you will encounter FC's and UI issues.
Google Apps are preinstalled.

Hahahaha I actually burst out laughing at the first person you thanked, thought it was hilarious. On topic, great job Kem! We're getting more and more interest in the device every day it seems and you're helping move the process along. Thank you!

I laughed to makes me feel important but any u no su I'll be able to flash back right

Why don't you find out yourself? You can always ODIN back. Just a note, to be a tester you must be willing to test things yourself, otherwise why would you hold that title?

Okay let me start this post saying that I have almost no sleep and hopefully will not fall asleep in the process of composing this like last time.

The last 18 hours or so has been a crazy process of emotions with rage at the MiCode PatchROM. At 9:20 AM dswaggz PM'ed me about the MIUI ICS source. I took a look on github and saw that the MiCode team had posted the ICS branch with good English instructions. I start up my virtual machine and download the source and it takes a while for me to get ADB working through Virtualbox. I setup the environment and execute the command that pulls everything from the phone and nicely packages it into a stockrom.zip when I finally get to the make fullota command I get a fatal error similar to the one that had stopped me on gingerbread. I look back at github and see that MIUIAnderson has posted a response to someone that has encountered the same problem. According to the MiCode team the Patchrom only works with actual OEM ICS stock ROMs. They had stopped supporting AOSP-based ROMs to due too many bugs.

Thinking about this realistically how many devices have a goal of the new MIUI and actually have a 4.0 stock ROM? This would limit the new MIUI to devices with official firmware updates and new devices running 4.0 right out of the box. Well what about the devices that won't get an upgrade? I thought about the Kindle Fire and remembered that they had an ICS version of MIUI even though there only stock version was 2.3.5. Searching around I found some more MIUI ROMs that were built on top of CM9 and other AOSP ROMs. Continuing to look around these forums I found a guide for a process that I now refer to as manual patching process or "manupatch". Since the Patchrom was so complex compared to this more basic method I couldn't believe it could work.

I had fused together a MIUI build from another device with the CM9 AOSP ROM from this device and it actually worked! So a big thanks to master expert porter proxuser here on xda. The link to that thread is in the OP.

I'm not sure if its just me but the stock browser seems so smooth and fast almost as if it has acceleration. I do notice that in certain parts of the user interface and browser that the screen starts flickering, pixelates with static, and generally freaks out. I think this might be some sort of GPU render bug since it gets worse when I enabled forced GPU acceleration. Maybe this is caused from using the Galaxy Nexus build as the source ROM, maybe its a glitch between the MIUI and CM parts in the target ROM.

I can't believe that of all things the su binaries for root access are missing. I kept wondering why root explorer wasn't working. I'm going to work on the device specifics for the exhibit in this ROM. Taking out the Updater app, ROM Manager, Status LED options, removing the on-screen buttons to allocate for more screen space, and switch out the boot animation.

When u add the su binaries I'm so down an maybe the method u used for this might work with gb u think kem
