Thank you guys for still developing MIUI on our device.

I witnessed only a few bugs:
# unable to take screenshots - MIUI shows "Unable to save screenshot. Storage may be in use."
# Calendar app doesn't show Google calendar - in Settings it allows me to sync Google calendar, but it doesn't show up in the Calendar app. Only options are Birthday reminder and Local calendar.
# installed WSM Tools and the Mi-Tools module, bet when opening Mi-Tools it shows that i have an unsupported OS, therefore some things don't work (this problem might related to me disabling some MIUI apps)

The ROM feels and is actually faster than the previous versions than were based on Stock JB 4.1.2 version. Ram management isn't bad at all - still not as good on any other ROM but actually can multitask 2-3 apps at the same time. Battery is also quite good - now the ROM actually goes to deep sleep when you're not using it.

For which reason your base rom is omni.
Pure AOSP is better than that.

[emadtaha]

[tradingtoms]

Did a clean install with the latest 4.8.15 version - fixed some things, others are now broken.

# Settings button in Notification panel doesn't work (already mentioned)
# Home button doesn't work (already mentioned)
# unable to add Facebook account in Settings
# while charging (USB) phone doesn't lock, sometimes it doesn't even turn off the screen
# missing some features from Settings > Buttons - no option to disable backlight keys

# Google calendar sync now works

Here's a log file which includes Facebook problem and probably some other errors

 

[kamald73]

Yes, same bugs happened to me. But i think this is because gapps 4.4.2 as link in OP. After flash gapps 4.4.4, setting button in notification panel working, home button working, no problem with facebook

im on miui , but on stock based. i assume that since the update is based on carbon rom , some games might not work , like asphalt?

Sent from my Xperia S

edit:

you can use aospx or pure aosp as base rom , but the ram is low. im on stock but i am using a chinese kernel that is based on doom kernel which has 768 ram.
