MIUI Android with JellyBean

RIL/PHONE fixed!! This is something that's been a thorn in the side of these ROMS for a while. Sorry for the delay, but I didn't want to keep releasing small fixes until I dealt with this major issue. If you don't know what I'm talking about, count your blessings. If you DO, the fix allows you to switch from 4g to 3g and back, the phone will now pick the network correctly, you can enter Mobile Network Settings without losing data, you can edit things in Mobile Network Settings effectively. Phone info is fixed as well so you can also dial *#*#4636#*#* to edit your preferred network as well.

Welcome to unofficial MIUI Android port for Verizon's SGS3.
- CM10 20120914 base
- MIUI Android 2.9.14 port
- CM10 stock kernel: available here


DISCLAIMER: By altering your phone as described in this thread, you have the potential to brick your device, void your warrenty, and other undesirable things. I, nor anyone else, am not responsible for what with your phone. Back everything up, including comprehensive IMEI/NV backup...it's already saved me :)

If you're completely new to rooting and installing ROMS, check out this thread.



How to install:

1. Make sure you are rooted and your bootloader is unlocked
2. Backup everything you possible can
3. Reboot into recovery, make a nandroid, and wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik
4. Flash ROM
5. Reboot and enjoy



What works:

- Phone
- Data/4g/Wifi
- SMS/MMS (works for me even after reboot)
- Themes
- Play Store
- Camera/Camcorder (just re-fixed)
- Google Now/Search
- and more!



What's broken:

- Notification sounds (e.g ringtone, notification sounds, camera sounds, etc) don't play unless you manually change volume. Adjust the volume with the rocker until you hear a beep.
Then you should be good.
- NFC (fix is in the works)
- Facebook (MIUI-wide issue)
- Torch causes soft-reboot
- also probably more...



Changes:


- Alpha4:
- Fixed the RIL/telephony/phone incompatibility stuff
- removed the Xiaomi welcome/login

- Alpha3:
- rebased to CM10 09142012 and updated to MIUI Android 2.9.14
- SD card fixed so internal and external are both available at the same time
- LED notification fix
- added 4-way reboot
- fixed an NFC related FC, though NFC is still...not ideal :)
- enabled soft-key backlights
- I THINK I eliminated Gapps FCs
- overall data is much more stable (though see the above note!)

- Alpha2:
- fixed camera (works after multiple reboots for me now)
- fixed Google Search/Now so there's no need to flash Gapps anymore

- Alpha1:
- Initial port
- Screen flicker fixed
- HW keyboard fixed


Thanks:

- As above
- Cyanogenmod team
- Lens_flare and all the other MIUI devs
- MIUI Android
- chairface, R4INS, lithium76, sasovics

IF YOU WANT TO HELP WITH THIS ROM, DON'T HESITATE TO DO SO

I would love to help with this ROM, just clarifying if you flash the latest GAPPS won't that remove the MIUI theming from the applications or is there already a flash-able GAPPS that is MIUI themed?

Yes they do, I did as suggested in OP and turned volume up to max.

Cool, you've been a huge help!

One more question...did flashing Gapps ruin the MIUI theme for Google's apps?

PM me if you'd really like to help out. It'd be good to have another hand. Actually, flashing the new GAPPS doesn't change the theming. It may not even be necessary. There were only a few test runs where I was having trouble with Google Search.

Works both ways in my testing. Let me know if it's not working for you.


EDIT:
Have fun everyone...gotta sleep for a little bit.

Glad I could be of assistance :D

As far as you gapps question, I did not flash them.

Another thing I noticed when I plugged in to my puter the screen went black and wouldn't turn back on?

I just flashed and I get 3g apparently, but no 4g, and I am in a 4g area. Also my camera freezes after taking a picture. Anyone else confirm?

Edit: 4g just came on. Camera still borked.

I can confirm the camera issue, mine did the same thing after trying to take a picture. "Camera isn't responding. Do you want to close it?" Didn't save the photo either.

Also just opened the options in the camera and you can only use up to 3MP??

Also cannot filter music by folder under music settings.

Kinda seems like it isn't seeing the external SD card??

Now I am having wifi issues, it turned on earlier and connected to my wifi. But once I rebooted the wifi will not turn back on? Also received a com.phone.android error on reboot.
-got my wifi working again, rebooted into recovery cleared cache and fixed permissions - profit!

    Fixed the Mobile Network Settings, preferred network, RIL, telephony, phone info nonsense. Didn't really make other big changes, but now that the data issue is (hopefully) resolved, I'll do the smaller easier stuff. Thanks for being patient!

    Camera works as does volume.

    In other news, I'm going to team up with some other people so I'm going to let this thread die out. I think StrumerJohn is probably going to incorporate these changes or switch to this base. He's done a TON already so hopefully we'll get a nice dd going soon! Details TBD but keep an eye on his thread from now on. Thanks everyone for the support!

Thanks for some great work kid..
