MIUI for Moto X, when? - Moto X Q&A

I would love to see MIUI on our device. It would be amazing! What do you guys think?
I don't know anything about ROM Developing though, so I'll have my hopes up for someone to make a port.

I doubt we'll ever see it considering the Nexus doesn't even have it. We are pretty locked down here so I'd expect we would get the mainstream roms first if anything.

If anyone has the time and patience to port it, here is a link for a guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2555094

I've tried porting it from the Nexus 4 and it just bootloops.

Wait for Miui based on Kitkat to be released...
EDIT:- Sorry... Miuiv6 is in its beta stages... Lets wait for it to be completely released! Hopefully someone will port it over CM or better over the stock ROM which might let us keep active display and touchless control!

I can't get to grab the log cat while bootloading. I have ported miui long ago but a lot has change. I'm using the nexus 7 2013 build and cm to port. I'm not using patch ROM though I don't have Ubuntu

I have no clue on as to how to use the patch ROM.... I have only tried porting like the old ways... ie smali editing.... I tried it when we were at JB with stock ROM but never had the patience to complete it.... And about the Log cat... Have you changed the bootclass path in the boot.img? What guide are you following?

Last time I attempt patchrom it took me almost all night to sync the cm repo, miui repo doesn't take that long. I'm as well doing the editing on smali as well. I was thinking on that of editing the bootclass path. Will try that for now. And also some framework diff too. PS I'm using the same guide

I didnt know you needed CMs repo as well... I thought just having the ROM was enough! How about trying to base it off SlimKats repo? It will definitely be less...

Source Code

Hey, I just saw that Motorola has released the source-code for our beloved Razr I on sourceforge.
So in theory it should be possible to compile our own androids. I was wandering whether anybody is working on this / has tried that?
http://sourceforge.net/projects/razr-i.motorola/
Thorsten
Yes, we could use that if they'd give us a non-corrupted kernel source. We already knew this.
I've had a brief attempt at this but always get build errors at make.
So far I've tried with cyanogenmod ics release and aosp but not entirely sure how to overlay the motorola repos. Most are fairly obvious and can be merged into device, external, hardware etc but don't know where to put the Motorola folder...
turl set up a device tree for the razri a while ago but it hasn't been touched since:
https://github.com/turl/android_device_motorola_smi
@Vistaus - Motorola updated did updated the source after the initial corrupt version.
Okay thanks for the info.
Maybe naive, but what about trying to contact Motorola and ask them how the build-pocess works? Or do you think they would not help?

That is not what developers say and I doubt developers will lie about it.
Thorstenk, the instructions for building the kernel are in the README.
The instructions for building in the WIFI/bluetooth modules are also pretty clear.
I may try another build with just these, I was running into problems when trying to build with all 37-38 folders overlayed...
Thanks man, will give it a try, unfortunately I am not very experienced ...

This was how I did it. Just followed the readme. Modules didn't work right though as I said.
Sent from my XT890 using Tapatalk 2
Just tried to compile the whole thing which did not work, overlaying everything is definitely not sufficient. I guess we need to do more.
After that I tried to bake a kernel, wich did not work as well, always another build error. I am working on a mac which probably makes the situation that bad, no idea.
Dont get why they do not provide a tar-ball where everything is included ...

I'm on a mac also, it shouldn't be an issue if you are on a case sensitive file system n using correct java, gcc etc.
Check the version of xcode you are using as well, I had to install version 3.
Oh and post the error message. I got to the point where it was complaining about multiple copies of busybox from the overlayed folders (which is why I think we don't need all of them)

Yes, I bothered Motorola for this last night. Glad they sorted it so quickly.
Also don't include the recovery folder at the moment.
I had an unsuccessful build this morning so I think there's still some things missing...

[VIDEO] How To Flash Android 4.4 To Your Nexus 4

Hey everyone, me again! So with Android 4.4 out for the Nexus 4, I thought some folks might need a little help installing it, or maybe just need a visual aid to help. So I made a How To video. Hopefully it helps some people :fingers-crossed: If it does, maybe hit that "Thanks" button?

I have an easy root fix for once you update to 4.4 if you have Mac
I modified the Root.Nexus.4.zip file for Mac on here, updated it to CWM 6.0.4.3 image, and SuperSU 1.65 image. Just unzip, and run the Root.Nexus.4 terminal shell script with the N4 in fastboot with USB connected to the Mac, I think you can use a similar script for PC and prob need USB drivers if you don't have them already. Hope this helps
I'm unable to post a link on here since I'm a newb, PM if you want the link to the zip
Thanks
Another build available here : http://www.androidauthority.com/android-4-4-kitkat-nexus-4-nexus-7-download-unofficially-313352/.
Flashed this in CWM, everything, including root is absolutely fine. (I flashed SuperSu 1.65 zip). But for the proper google experience, have to wait for the factory images.
The lockscreen widgets functionality (except for the camera widget) seems to have been removed, can anyone find that option anywhere?
Edit: Lockscreen widgets can be enabled in Settings->Security.

Twitter: @dalingrin
Google+ is preferred but I will cross post to twitter as well.​
Known issues:
-While LG's knock on feature works, knock off does not work yet.(A simple work around is go to the settings and add a "go to sleep" quick settings tile)
-Currently only for v500. GPE v510 support coming soon.​
Installation:
Instructions will be up soon at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org
Must have latest recoveries installed. If you installed your recovery prior to December 6th 2013 then you need to update it.

My CWM build should work as it was updated with the same kernel that TWRP was updated from. I'll test it myself when the nightly is available and let you know.

at last, official cyanogen release! thnx so much mate, keep up the good work
Is the only known issue right now the lack of Knock Off? Otherwise, is it pretty much rock solid, or is it still a work-in-progress?

I hope we do not see a huge decrease in battery. Good to see roms coming!
The Moto X bionic libs should work for this, right? It's a Qualcomm chip and Android 4.4. I'm using them on my DROID DNA and they make things much snappier.

Yes my understanding is that works the best right now. Hopefully better, more ART compatible, gapps will come soon.
PA Gapps are compatible with ART but they have several other issues.
I'm assuming this will not work on the Google Play Edition version because of Loki, and if i'm correct do you know how hard it'd be to make it work with the GPE? Just kernel I'm assuming? Thanks for your work!

Just the kernel will need to change. It will take a couple of days but we will have unified builds for both GPE V510 and V500 so it will be seamless.
It's up! Downloading now. I'll let you know what happens with CWM as well.
EDIT: Flashed just fine with my CWM build. Booting up now!
EDIT2: Things are going well. First thing I noticed is that auto rotate isn't working for me. Is it working for you, @dalingrin?

Yes. There are some test applications from Qualcomm and LGE.
Not useful ROM anyway.
I think all of the Nexus 5 phones shipped with Keylimepie at least the launch ones did. The update that hits immediately after you set up your phone gets you to Kitkat though.
What applications from LGE and Qualcomm? Can you extract the APKs?

Infact it did.. The build was keylimepie, kitkat name was a secret even for developers at Google, only couple people at Google had known the agreement with kitkat brand (it was only a rename keylimepie -> kitkat)
But people still prefer to believe in conspirations and still think that the next build will be key lime pie 5.0
