Hi All,

While we are all in the wait for Android 4.2..."Try, Different"
I have ported Meizu FlyMe OS 1.0.5 to MS2 based on latest CM9 (Android 4.0.4) by sfc3001

NOTE: Rom uses CH GB kernel. Have not tried working on EU GB kernel yet


Credit and Thanks :
sfc3001 - huge thanks for his CM9 rom
GalaxyUser - for his rom.
emwno - for his help and support
Lens_flare - for his guide
Necrosan for being the first one to port this rom from Meizu.
p0isonra1n - for his help, support and testing that he's done and doing.


Installation for noobs :p

0. Download The ROM :) (Mirror) and put it into root of your SD card
1. Boot into recovery
2. Nandroid backup incase you don't like it or in case it backfires at you ;)
3. Full wipe data and cache
4. Wipe dalvik cache
5. Flash rom
6. Wipe cache and Dalvik
7. Reboot and Enjoy


Please, don't be too judgemental and any help to improve this rom is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

TIPS
Code:
- Disable keylight
    Navigate to Settings > Display and bring the light dots on the bottom to 0 (all grey)
- Recent apps
    Like normal ICS, you can't access recent apps menu from holding home key, but menu key instead
- Screenshot
    Hold power + home button
- Using SMS in horizontal mode
    SMS app > Settings > Turn on "Allows horizontal screen"
BUGS
Code:
1 - USB/SD card access - seem to be fixed by choosing Boot [2nd init + adb] from Bootmenu but resets once the cable is unplugged and USB symbol stays on status bar
2 - Mobile data network- I am getting very poor mobile connectivity and none for most of the times but phone functions work normally.
3 - Occasional com.android.phone error - Doesn't effect phone functionality but does make the phone go nuts for a second or two
4 - Settings/Netwrok -> give com.android.phone stopped - Known issue for all FlyMe OS roms
5 - Volume rocker on native/stock music player
6 - Auto rotation on some apps
7 - HW/SW inconsistency

the room is fantastic in my point of view, though the most annoying bug is with the touch function keys ( menu, home, back and search).

Can't wait for the next realease ! thnks ;)

Hi,
A lot of people have been asking me about FlyMe OS JB version these days. Although I would really like to port it to our milestone 2, the truth is that I really hadn't had much time to work on it since I had my little baby girl, she's one now and is running around the apartment, so most of my spare time I am spending playing with her.
And I do not have the opportunity to do porting at work, since this is my hobby and it doesn't pay any bills, also a personal integrity issue comes up.
As you may know, porting a rom is one thing, which is not that hard, but it's testing and troubleshooting that takes a lot of time and makes your phone become unavailable, which I can't afford given the circumstances.
So here is the part where I reach out for your help, if you have any porting/testing experience, especially in logcatting during bootloops for Milestone 2, using ADB (push/pull), may need RSD Lite too and you're willing to contribute your time and phone up time for this, please, contact me.
Since FlyMe OS is not as popular as MIUI and it's community range is narrow, there is not much porting guide or experience sharing or lessons learned that could make this any easier.

Well, that is it. The rest is up to you, guys. Thanks

P.S. One kind request, though, if you're not sure about your technical abilities, please, do not overestimate yourself. Since the last thing we want to do, is put aside rom porting and try to bring your phone to live.
