MIUI General FAQ

Q: How do I root this?
A: Enable root in the perm manager, which can be found in the security folder.

Q: Why is G-Apps not listed for Download?
A: Too Bloaty, add a Google account and install the play store as an APK, I suggest using Aptoide to find it.

Q: 4G LTE isn't working
A: Load the Phone, dial *#*#4636#*#*, goto Phone information, Set preferred network type to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL).

Q: Help! Phone/SystemUI/Keyboard Isn't working/Is Force Closing!
A: Make sure to do a completely clean wipe, also I'm not sure how well this will work if flashed in CWM.

Q: The Browser looks terrible.
A: Settings -> Advanced -> User agent string -> MiOne (It Renders much better & more naturally!)

Q: My Filesystems won't mount/My PC can't see my device/My phone won't act as a MTP/USB Mounting isn't working!
A: Settings -> Developer Options -> Enable Development / USB Debugging (switch both to on)

Misc Notes

Hi, nice to meet you all; I'm Tquetski over at en.miui

I've begun to fork MIUI to the entire motorola device tree, this will be pending for the next day or two while I source build for many devices.

This will be a weekly thing.
Let's hope this will put a little more life in this unlucky device... Thank you so much for your effort!

Once this is stable I'll bring other interesting ROMs to this phone, I'm not a general porter and do not care about derivitives of CyanogenMod; I like things like BaiduRom, ColorOS, MIUI.

Hi Tquetski,

thanks its really nice to see miui for the Droid 3 (I tried to port miui myself with the 2.3.6 stock rom as base but i failed)

This port is based on Hascodes cm 10.1, so no camera and flashlight will ever work.

Personally, I think it would be better to use the stock 2.3.6 rom ase base with the patchrom method (better performance + camera)
I hope you'll prove me wrong ! if you need a beta tester i'm your man.


Here is a small overview of my test (clean first slot, testet with and without gapps, no build.prop tweaks):

1. The Overall performance with installed gapps, compared to cm 10.1 is slow and laggy after you open some apps.
Withoud pre installed gapps the phone works fast.
If you run autoupdates from the market in the backgrout, the phone will be so slow you cant use it anymore (pre installed gapps, Ram ?)

2. Audio dosent work (no mic no sound Speaker/Headset)

3. Calls and data works with GSM SIM in Germany, but audio dosent work.

4. If you enable wifi, GSM disconects and you must wait some time for the reconect, after that GSM still disconnects happen randomly. (much better without pre installed gapps)

5. No softkeybord out of the box ? (clean install and wipe)

6. The lockscreen is very laggy. (same with and withoud gapps)

7. My system language is german but still most of the system is in english.

8. Google Voice Search doesn't work (blackscrean then it goes back to home screen, pre installed gapps, Ram ?)

9. I installed maps to test GPS maps dosent work phone freezing/reboots. (pre installed gapps, Ram ?)

10. Bluetooth dosent works.

11. USB works.

11. In the menu General settings -> Stock settings are not changeable ?

12. After boot error : unfortunately, the process com.androids.phone has stop (wipe and reboot error disappears)

I used a source built CM10.1 that was recently made (like the day this rom was released), I don't have any pre-installed G-apps but RAM seems to be an issue; I'll trim this down and scope out the listed issues.

Also most of the translations just suck, that's not an error they improve with versionups as MIUI reaches more places

RAM issue

2. Audio dosent work (no mic no sound Speaker/Headset)

CM inherent issue?

3. Calls and data works with GSM SIM in Germany, but audio dosent work.

^

4. If you enable wifi, GSM disconects and you must wait some time for the reconect, after that GSM still disconnects happen randomly. (much better without pre installed gapps)

^ I don't pre-install G-apps, I use the installer from the market after I install MIUI

5. No softkeybord out of the box ? (clean install and wipe)

^ I didn't include them but can

6. The lockscreen is very laggy. (same with and withoud gapps)

^ Old phone, new OS

7. My system language is german but still most of the system is in english.

^ Bad translation, most are still a WIP from devs

8. Google Voice Search doesn't work (blackscrean then it goes back to home screen, pre installed gapps, Ram ?)

^ Assign your Google account BEFORE installing

9. I installed maps to test GPS maps dosent work phone freezing/reboots. (pre installed gapps, Ram ?)

^

10. Bluetooth dosent works.

^ CM inherent prolly

11. USB works.

11. In the menu General settings -> Stock settings are not changeable ?

^ The Stock settings are for my phone :D

12. After boot error : unfortunately, the process com.androids.phone has stop (wipe and reboot error disappears)

^ Seems RIL related, no idea on this.

I can do GB based MIUI but that's not a challenge anyone can swing it

any chance that this has working service on verizon cdma? all the rest of the jellybean roms for the droid 3 do not so i was just curious. id love to be able to use this on my droid. since a lot of the links of roms have been discontinued or taken down, roms for this phone are kinded limited and its great to still see development.
