< NOTES >
Click to expand...

- If you're coming from other MIUI V5 realase you don't need to [wipe data / factory reset], [wipe cache partition] and install the GAPPS.just flash this rom over previous. -

- Turn Rounded Corners Off,Limit Background Processes To 3 and Enable 'Force GPU rendering' In Development Settings And Reboot For Smoothness. -

 - If you have "assert failed" error during flashing rom you can fix it easy by on this way:
Open the zip file with 7zip. go to META-INFcomgoogleandroidupdater-script drag it to your windows explorer (or other programs). open it with notepad :
assert(getprop(";ro.product.device" == ";LT26i"; || getprop(";ro.build.product" == ";LT26i"; ||
getprop(";ro.product.device" == ";galaxys2"; || getprop(";ro.build.product" == ";galaxys2"; ( Or Something Similar )

and

delete them entirely :p . save it. then drag n drop to your opened 7zip, replacing old updater-script. - (Thanks to m1st3r1)

- VALUABLE APPS -

- To Replace Native Camera Which Quality Is Poor I Suggest 4 Alternatives:
  • Download And Install SNAP CAMERA HDR(Trial Version Works Completely ,But You Must Disable Internet Connection To Use It)

Im sorry but this is a development thread, not for FAQ or Tutorials. Your thread header reads (ROM)...bla bla bla thus one would expect a ROM available for download. Please forgive me if I misunderstand.

I can't flash the rom
it shows
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "nozomi" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "nozomi" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "galaxys2" || getprop("ro.buildproduct") == "galaxys2"

I'm pretty sure it's Xperia S in my hand
also, I have already restored to 6.1.A.2.55, rooted, restored to factory, cache/dalvik cache wiped
flashed with CWM

how can I solve this? thanks :)

open the zip file with 7zip. go to META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script drag it to your windows explorer (or other programs). open it with notepad and change:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT26i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT26i" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "galaxys2" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "galaxys2");

to

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "LT26i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "LT26i" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "nozomi" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "nozomi");

or delete them entirely :p . save it. then drag n drop to your opened 7zip, replacing old updater-script.

done. :) and it's best if u flash the kernel first via fastboot,

Setting contact images(or avatars) gets a FC, kills the entire system, forces launcher to redraw.

Edit: works by going through the gallery.

Original thread is in Chinese.Changelog is the same as http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/miui-rom-3-5-17-changelog.20459/.

Whole rom is based on Cm10 FreeXperia Project from 17.05.2013.

As i know camera is only 720p (cyanogenmod).and you must couple times press home button to activate task killer.
Please post any other bugs.
Click to expand...
The problem with task killer can be solved by the following steps:
- settings
- Buttons & keys
- Home key --> select "None" instead of the default "Launch Recent panel"

Long-pressing home key still brings the list of recent application and task killer.
