MIUI for our beloved N4: finally? - Nexus 4 General

Hey MIUI fanatics out there!
Last night, I stumbled on this post on G+:
https://plus.google.com/103335486449456213484/posts/DHeDAbUeVsQ
The guy clearly runs a full blown android 4.2.2 MIUI rom on his GNex, which is pretty exciting, cuz a port to our device shouldn't be that difficult at this point. Or is it...?
Well, thought I had to share this. Let's keep our fingers crossed...
Regards.

MIUI on any device is like running a port of a port on a port of a port that was ported from a port that only works right 68% of the time. No thanks.

(Sarcasm caution)
What is miui..?
I've seen it mentioned since the nexus s days, never run it on a phone.

Not my thing..

Lol okay obviously I'm the only one who's excited

I'm interested in MIUI, MIUI is pretty but I probably won't run it for long before I switch back, maybe 3 weeks max.

how about 'you funny'

Bah, i m also looking forward to it!
People here usualy poo-poo MIUI, although they will claim anywhere else that Android=choice... Don't worry too much about this logic issue

OP, if you look at the MIUI forums, they have launched beta builds for Gnex and believe me there are a lot of bugs now. Once, it passes onto stable, someone or I might port it for mako.

Miui is always lagging way far behind Google on Android versions. And the version that they are on is usually very bug ridden. I like it but I hate dealing with major bugs, little bugs don't bother me to much.

Well, I ve tried V5 on the i9000, and it s simply so slow it cannot be used.
I also tried on the i9300, and it is quite nice over there, so there's hope.
But I agree, it is not as fast as a nice aosp/cm 10.1/AOKP ^^.
I like how different it looks, and weither I ll use it for a long time or not, well, let's see!
I d give a spin to iOS if it were ported, just for the sake of running it on the N4, ahha

You should look into the reason they are poo-pooed....they are a china development house and do alot of shady things. But you seem to have the logic part down so you'll not need to Google or anything.

I cannot wait to try MIUI on my Nexus 4. I been waiting for it since I bought my phone.

Yeah, i know what they say, with the spying and the stealing and the burning of houses...
Anyway..I understand what you mean, didn t want to start a thing here. I just like it, no matter the valid reasons ^^
When talking about logic, I was refering to people saying , 'it looks too much like iPhone, blah'... Which isn t the point I think

Can't wait to run it although I always end up switching to vanilla like 2 days later haha

I knew someone would say that. Alot of stuff actually and if you were to try it you would see.

I think what really differentiates these ROMs is the customization. If it's still just stock Touchwiz, I doubt we'd notice any difference.
But good job. Maybe when you have a custom theme or post some screenshots

So this is basically a faster version off stock KL1 or KMM? I really wonder if it is possible to do a stock Google 3.2 for this...touchwiz just messes it up.
Anyway good work though. Seems a bit faster.
Btw...why are you using screenshot er when there a whole button for it?
Hooray! New ROM! I'll give it a flash this evening.... Thanks!

Who rated this 1 star... Probably some idiot who hasn't even tried it. .__.
Awesome. Thank you to the probably 5 people who tried it actually out of the 396. Thanks.
Sweet. Another 1 star vote. I should just have this thread deleted. Thanks to everyone for supporting me and telling me what to fix. /sarcasm. Maybe I should give up developing since nobody seems to like my ROMs.
Dude you dont need to be pissed off these people, actually the development of the tab roms is getting slow and you are the only one who posted the last two roms, a great job just by posting these thread to keep the development ongoing, probably the one that rated your rom 1 star is 10 year old kid mostly just trolling around.
All the best.
yeah man screw the haters and be patient with all the feedback as that Android 4.0 alpha has taken all the attention lately. Just giver a week or so with the holiday season and all.
Thanks guys. The reason I'm getting irritated at the raters is because it the rating is so low, people are just gonna be like "oh, 2 stars. Nah, I'm not gonna look at it."

Rolling another green android as we speak.
I am definitely addicted to Android since discovering MIUI.us 2.2.3. Take the best features of IOS, add to it the best features of Android, throw in a liberal dose of nuance, style and flair and you have the perfect ROM.
I never thought i'd be saying this but it really is an order of magnitude better than Cyanogenmod. The infamous Android lag is all but gone! The N1 touchscreen wonks..gone! It's like i died and woke up in smartphone heaven. Most of the apps i used to use i don't need any more. Decent File Browser? Check. Decent Browser? Check. Decent SMS/Dialer/Alarm? Check!
What i don't need in a ROM are a hundred features that i have to turn off because i don't use them. What i do need in a ROM are core features that just work well. Consider me converted!
I seriously wouldn't trade my two year old phone for anything on the market right now, not even if it were free. Not a chance!
Wich phone you own?

Agree, and this is why MIUI has to port it to the Galaxy Note. I used MIUI on my Desire HD, and this is the one thing i miss the most. TouchPizz is a bloated resource hog that must die.

It depend on which touchwiz. Touchwiz 4 is actually optimized for the phone it is on. That's why it never lags. But touchwiz 3 is a complete different story.

Yeah you're right, but i just don't like it in the same way i don't like Sense. It's just too much
I'm hooked on IceCremeSandwich's with no-sense!
pure curiosity
first, i have the android phone, then switch to iOS then at now, android again feeling to be more comfy with android (though iOS still rocks on perf and display)
but guess, loving now android coz to put my dev-inside
MIUI.us is working out so well for me. I have apps that never worked well on CM7 that are working perfectly now. The famous N1 touchscreen wonk has disappeared completely, (which is a miracle in itself), and not only are the stock apps better than AOSP, (Gallery, you know i'm talking about you), but they're better than the usual replacements. (Sorry, Quickpic).
A big plus is a beautiful U.I that is consistent throughout the software and on par with IOS. It's like somebody read my mind and made a bespoke ROM for me! It's all the little touches too. The nice animations, the way the music fades out when you pause it, (not to mention Lyrics support and a pretty visualisation), options for re-ordering Bookmarks in the Browser, a good Notes app, in built backup for apps, system and theme. It's incredibly fast and smooth too. Without the OC i had in CM7 it actually performs better!
Pics for the uninitiated:
How about a stock Data usage app, or a Firewall:
How good is that?
I love my android phone...
Still my first (galaxy mini), but i hope my next one will be better...

What do you like?

Im curious on what people like more. What do you like. HTC, Or Samsung. Sense 3./3.5, asop or miui and why. Ill start. HTC and asop. HTC are usually more high quallity feeling. feel more durable then the cheap feeling easyy to break and brick galaxy. Aosp because its light. Has better things to do. More customizeable and user friendly.

Stop being a troll Kevin. EVERYONE'S heard of the Android Source Open Project. Wait... what?
I'm a fan of both. Have both Samsung and HTC, I however have more Samsung devices. Always been a fan since I got the Captivate. I'll be buying both brands though. And I am more for AOSP as well, lighter and more to do like you mentioned.

When I read the abbreviation, I always read it as Asop in my head, even though I know what it stands for. It's just easier than trying to pronounce it the other way.
I like to play games and I am a bigger fan of this game........Playing game is one of mine favorite Hobby.....I have played so many games and all that games are mine favorite...Battlefield 3 and Angry Birds are two most of mine favorite game.....
I think I like cm7 because it would take less than a whole day to repo sync grrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I knew someone who bred them. You couldn't walk across his lawn without falling over one. They were enormous buggers though and would eat 20lbs of vegetables a night, before eating all the remaining grass and deposing the remains for cleaning up the next day.
True story!
I Like MIUI this is so cool
Samsung, with ASAP SOAP SOPA AOSP. I like HTC too, but they've become boring, and they're pumping out "new" models every single week.
MIUI FTW. Messed around with CM9 beta, but likely MIUI v4 will be my golden ticket.
I like Moto hardware, but I don't like the bloat VZ throws on top of it.

Yes, the minor 7th has much more character to it than a plain minor chord.
I prefer Samsung phones, but might give HTC a try later this year.

[Q] CM10 Nightly for Vivid: Adobe Flash Issues!

I recently flashed CM10, and it seems to be working perfectly fine. Keyboards, home and search buttons, Gapps all good. However, when installing the most recent Adobe Flash APK, the problems are glaring. While it does work, the video is severely choppy, Flash Adverts get blended into other Flash running panels, creating a stripped pattern everywhere. It's just a total mess. I've tried running it on Firefox with similar results, and Chrome rejects it entirely.

Yeah, I did realize that, but I figured that someone would've discovered the issue and found a way since I expected that the issue lied in the ROM and not the CM itself, but I guess not. I'm just going to stick with a stock ROM then, until someone makes an ICS ver. of CM. for Vivid.

Can't wait to try the port. Been really wanting to create a theme for this UI on android but was waiting for official screen shots or something. Whatcha guys think? Of course its got a long way to catch up to Android, if it even can. Just neat to try out.

Sailfish OS looks absolutely stunning and with the N5 just getting other OS's like firefox and ubuntu i'm really excite for this.

yes it has support for android applications but I believe its native applications are more important as they will fit the design and functionality of the SailFish style guidelines. Android support is just something that helps people transition easier by starting out with a large app market.
Awesome!

This source is nothing more than a photoshop. If you look at the picture you can see that the phone in the picture looks slightly similar to the Nexus 5 but it isn't the Nexus 5.
The earpiece is different, the proximity sensor is on the wrong side etc.

Yes, but he hashtagged the Nexus 5 and use images from the Nexus 5 to make that image. He needs to post something substantial then a fake image. I'm hoping too, fingerscrossed.
Look at this reply from Jolla when asked about when can we expect sailfish on N5.
