*UPDATE 4*:
Previews of existing themes are now viewable upon mouse over of the theme names.
*UPDATE 3*:
I have now turned this into a web based program hosted on my personal website. Things to know before trying it out:
-It will convert both old style themes (those with lockscreen directories instead of files) and new style themes (most themes).
-It will supply you with a download link to your converted theme and also a link to every theme that has been converted thus far. Check to see if your theme is already there before uploading it.
-Uploads and downloads from my server may be a bit slow, but considering how small most of these files are, this shouldn't be a major issue.
-The upload file size is limited to 8 MB. If you have a theme bigger than that, remove all non-lockscreen files from it and repack it before uploading it.
-The file name can not have any spaces or special characters. If it does, just rename it so that it doesn't before uploading it.
-The conversion is still not (any will never be) foolproof. There will be some cases where you'll have to go into the manifest.xml file and manually update the values that were overlooked. As it is though, it seems to fully convert ~90% of themes with no further work needed.
-If my website is not responding, send me a pm or post here.
-If you have any questions/issues, post here.
-Enjoy

*UPDATE 2*:
v0.2 attached! It now takes care of all the extracting and repacking for you. You basically just feed it an mtz file and it will handle the rest. This will currently only work with *new* style themes, where the mtz contains an archive called "lockscreen". The logic is the same as before.
*UPDATE 1*
The Perl script is attached! READ THE INCLUDED README!! If you still have questions, feel free to post here or pm me.
All I ask is that you guys help each other out- If you're able to successfully use the script, help out those who can't by converting any requested themes from this thread. And please share here any themes you are able to successfully convert! Let this serve as the official qHD converted theme thread. As always, have fun and enjoy!
The easiest way to make this work properly is to follow these steps:
1.) Download cygwin from http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe
2.) Run setup.exe.
3.) At the "Select packages" screen in the installer, search for "perl", click "Perl" to expand it, and then click on "Skip" for "perl: Larry Wall's Practical Extracting and Report Language" so that "Skip" changes to the version number, meaning it will be installed.
4.) Do the same for "perl-Image-Magick: image manipulation software suite (Perl bindings)", which should also be listed there under the expanded "Perl" section, so that it's version is displayed. Also ensure that the zip and unzip utilities are installed in the same way.
5.) Search for 'make' and select Devel->make (The GNU version of the 'make' utility) so that it too installs. You'll need this to install any modules in CPAN later.
5.) Click next and complete the cygwin installation.
6.) Open cygwin and, at the prompt type "cpan".
7.) At the cpan prompt, type "Install Image::Info"
8.) Once the Image::Info module is installed, you should be able to run the script without any errors.
Hey guys, I got tired of trying MIUI lockscreen themes only to find that they don't work with my Sensation (along with any other qHD phone). So I wrote a little Perl script to take care of most of the tedious stuff (resizing all of the images and calculating and replacing all of the x, y, w, h values within manifest.xml). This actually takes care of everything in some cases. For example I converted the Sense Ring lockscreen theme with this script and it was good to go in about 10 seconds of work.
But I want to make it clear that I will not be spending copious amounts of time fixing things that the script doesn't already fix. If it's something little, I'll try to fix it. Or if it's something big and I'm bored, I'll also try to fix it, but I'm making no guarantees!
I'm also looking into a way to automate the process by possibly hosting this script somewhere and allowing anyone to upload an mtz file and get the updated mtz back. If this is ever happens, it will not be foolproof, but it will be an enormous first step in any WVGA/HDPI -> qHD conversion. So bring on your requests!
*PLEASE INCLUDE A LINK TO THE THREAD OR WEBSITE WHERE THE THEME YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT IS LOCATED SO I DON'T HAVE TO SEARCH!!*

Fixed the last one first because it was requested by someone else too. Everything was perfect after the conversion except for the music controls. Spent a long time trying to figure out why and eventually just manually fixed it. Otherwise these are going smooth! I'll get to the rest tomorrow hopefully.
Well you made script to resize and changing values of mainfest for your phone
it will be awesome if you make script for mdpi devices as can use miui lock on it but resizing manually really time consuming

Hi everyone,
As most of you know Lenovo released the official ICS build for the Ideapad K1 today. The new bootloader will not allow me to boot into recovery partition, so no custom recovery for now. Unfortunately the build released by Lenovo also lacked Google Apps. I have added in the latest Google Apps package including Face Unlock. I have posted two versions of the Rom both rooted and not rooted. The non rooted is 100% stock with Google Apps. The rooted has the latest Superuser.apk and su binary and the latest busybox, and the boot.img has been modified to allow adb remount.
This will wipe your entire device. You will lose all apps and data. I am in no way responsible for your device, as always flash at your own risk.

Double click flash-windows.bat

awsome great job!!!!:good:
Awesome work!! CM9/10 in the near future after kernel source? I volunteer to test if you need testers.
i was about to install this an i realized i left my data cable at work. i guess i get to sleep tonight after all
I know this is probably a dumb question but do I need the apx drivers installed? I'm having problems getting them installed with the official lenovo package ones... Maybe someone could link me to a different place to find them...

thank you so much khanning88 for this and all your hard work! lenovo should hire you and make you their senior dev.. awesome job! thanks again! =)
Great job man. Just installed. Looks fantastic!

First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to khanning88 for getting things done at this high speed.
However,I have issues on the Play Store. As a number of apps including Google Maps and Chrome cannot be downloaded directly via Play Store, which it said "Your device isn't compatible with this edition". So I have to grab them unofficially. Can we pretend the device to be a Xoom for maximum app compatibility, just like what you did in the rooted HC rom? Or is there any other solution?
Thanks in advance.
I respect your work.great share!
Thanks man ... downloaded both versions. Will flash mine with rooted version and my friend's device using unrooted version.
Recovery?
Awesome work - flashed root version - worked flawlessly.
Now, how can we reinstall CWM recovery - it seems to have disappeared? Installing the special recovery apk and opening does not reboot into recovery. Does anyone know if flashing ICS removed the recovery partition?
camera not working plus some apps dont install.
Flashed rooted version which worked OK. Camera app starts but the screen is black. Camera worked OK on HC 3.2.1. Tablet feels less responsive also.
Lots of my standard apps don't install, play store says they are not compatible. These are apps not games. Like flipboard and my banking app.
At this point I think I'll go back to HC until these items are fixed. And I guess this won't happen until Lenovo release the source and khanning can fix up all the Lenovo mistakes.
Disappointed with what Lenovo produced, given the time they spent working on it. Its a 3 out of 10 from me.

Camera works fine for me both pics and vids. Tablet seems much more responsive to me. I agree Lenovo did a poor job. Khanning came in in two hours and tripled their output. I have been working on modifing the build prop to get more apps to work.
Excellent work khanning. As far as overclocking goes, would something like that have to wait until the source is released? Or could a custom kernel supporting this be released without it? Just curious, I like to make things go faster...
Only downside is this came out the day before my work week (Fri-Sun) really kicks in gear, maybe by the time I get around to tinkering with this more questions will be answered.
Either way, khanning you really should be on salary by Lenovo for all the business youre saving that company. Thank you again!
These are the build Prop setting I used to get better EA and gameloft compatibility. I am not an expert on build Props and take no responsibility for your actions. Back up your build before making changes. Gmaps and chrome still do not show up in the market with theses settings.

Hello all of you!
For a period of time i have been working on porting MIUI to The Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
I have made progress, at one build i was able to get to the MIUI boot animation, and i need your help in order to get it booting!
http://infinityftw.sylvester20007.com/MIUI P3113.zip This is a build i made, ported from the kindle fire. It flashes, but it is stuck at boot animation. I was not able to pull a logcat, cus' adb did not recognise my device. So now I want all of you, especially you devs, to contribute to this project! Take a look at the file, flash it, see if you can get a logcat etc.
Lets do this! Lets finish this port!
Well, I am not a developer but I think you need to edit Services.jar for device to boot.
I have a P3100 managed to flashed the one i'm trying to port, sticks at Samsung Logo. Have Managed to get bugreport and logcat for the boot. Attaching it with this post. If someone could please help with the debugging would be great. I'm not into development so really dont understand too much of it. Also from what i see, it shows :
Build: MIUI
Bootloader: unknown
Radio: unknown
Network: (unknown)

It seems that you have a netd loop. It looks like you have yours setup for a logcat, and i was wondering if you could flash my RAM and post me a logcat in order to see if we have the same issues?
Sure... but i have a P3100... Can you send me the link? I can provide you with the logcat and bugreport. Also use the samsung drivers to get the device detect properly and get adb to function correctly. Here is the link : http://www.mediafire.com/?qp9gw2i9lwbr3qb Also storage will be disabled once you install the drivers. Just uninstall the driver and reconnect the tab to get the usb storage working again. Also you will have to repeat this install/uninstall to get either of the functions working.

Okay. The link is in OP,just use p3113 build
Downloading your rom... meanwhile i have got my build to boot but same problem as yours, infinite boot animation loop... attaching the logcat for the new miui... Somebody please have a look. I don't understand a word. Some problem with media profile i guess not sure. It says
PHP:
I/ServiceManager( 106): service 'media.audio_policy' died
I/ServiceManager( 106): service 'media.audio_flinger' died
I/ServiceManager( 106): service 'media.player' died
I/ServiceManager( 106): service 'media.camera' died
Edit : Can't install you're zip file... gives me error 7 i think i need to make changes to the build.prop
Edit 2 : network services (netd) seems to work now but still get the above error and infinite boot animation loop.
No one interested it seems!

you can try my guide in my signature...
and that prob is basically in framework.jar .. some classes are missing you can see in the logcat :good:
I am also quite new and have next to none knowledge of Android development though I would gladly help out as a tester with my p3110 since I'm a big fan of MIUI
I will start up again with this project very soon, and I'll start digging into framework.jar to make it boot :thumbup:

dude if its usefull on p3100 i will surely help u being tester
I tried to port using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994503 . Same problem, only bootanimation, no booting. The reason is, I did not do the manual diffing, because of lack of enough time and knowledge. However, i have the decompiled files with me which are to be diffed manually. If any one of you have the required skills for diffing and porting the files, I am attaching the decompiled jar files (in compressed zip file) that need to be manually diffed. Link. If someone manages to diff these files manually, may again zip the files up and upload it and link it here, so that i can continue with the Porter tool. Thanks
EDIT: Its based on cm10 build for p3100, and the source is kindle fire's MIUI JB
Great this miui porting thread stated getting alive , I'm sure you guys will make it possible . good luck
Btw guys , can we get help from miui porters for galaxy tab 7 and kindle fire devices , bcoz its succesfully ported On those devices
Hi, now that I have some free time, I'll try to help this port.
Just in case, I have a P3100 so I'll change a few things to fits my configuration and try. I'll be reporting in some hours.
Obs.: Just in case, in build.prop I see it's related to 4.1.2 but miui 2.9.21 is 4.1.1 based, right? Maybe this can be one of the problems.

It's copying the zip file to the root of the sdcard. I'm following the instruction on this page to the letter and so it is actually hiding everything behind a little program/script called phablet-flash.

Why in the world are they working on 13.04 but release the touch of 12.10! I'm so confused

i think he has a valid point - 13.04 is significantly peppier than 12.10.
Re: Ubuntu for Tablets for Nexus 7 Released! [Official Dev Preview]
I want to try this but first can someone post or link me to a way to fully backup and restore my current rom afterwards?
Thanks a bunch.
Edit: Is it possible to backup with rom manager, later flash stock again and restore? Which partition does ubuntu tablet mess with?

I'm guessing 12.10 is more stable. Newer isn't always necessarily better.

risking a dumb question here, but can the touch preview be installed on Tilapia? it says Grouper, but then it says Nakasi OR Nakasig, should you want to restore Android. but there are no images for Tilapia, only Grouper. I know 3G probably wouldn't work, and that's fine..
Giving it ago
Cheers for the heads up downloading it on my nexus as i type
seems to be hanging in terminal with this quantal-preinstalled-boot-armel+grouper.img: OK
Pushing /home/shaun/Downloads/phablet-flash/95/quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip to /sdcard/autodeploy.zip
how long should it take ;-/

I'm sittin there myself...wondering if it will reboot it or if is should...
Any progress so far?
EDIT nvm there we go
When it says that the Nexus 7 defaults to portrait mode, does it mean that that is all that is available? Or can it be changed to landscape? The main reason I want this is to try out sidestage.
Has anyone tried this out on the 3G version yet?
http://www.theverge.com/2016/3/9/11185872/android-n-developer-preview-features-report
The first preview build of Android N will be released to the public today with new features including a native split-screen mode, according to a report from 9to5Google. Citing an article from Ars Technica that was pulled after publication, 9to5Google says that the preview version of Android N includes a redesigned notification panel (with notifications that span the full width of the screen, and an edit button for quick changes), and improvements to the operating system's Doze feature, which will reportedly save battery whenever the screen turns off.
THERE'S ALSO A 'PICTURE IN PICTURE' MODE REPORTEDLY COMING
The biggest addition though, seems to be a new split-screen mode for multitasking. This reportedly works on both phones and tablets, and, like other features included in the preview, will be given to developers to test before it's released to the public later this year. 9to5Google says that Ars Technica also reported the existence of a new "picture in picture" mode which sounds similar to that in iOS 9, letting users shrink windows to a corner of their screen while browsing other apps.
The original Ars story also reportedly said that the preview will be available for the Nexus 6P, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6, Pixel C, Nexus 9, Nexus Player, and the General Mobile 4G. Google is also said to be launching a new "Android Beta Program." All of this information is extremely provisional at the moment, but if the Ars Technica report is true, we can expect to hear more about Android N — and its new features — some time soon.
I would be surprised if it actually releases today, but one can hope!!
It's out! http://storage.googleapis.com/androiddevelopers/shareables/preview/shamu-npc56p-preview-54b13c67.tgz
Currently unlocked bootloader and running twrp 3.0
That being said how would I go about installing this image? The same way as the other images? Also, if I do this, will I be able to revert back?
Developer preview? It's still functional as a phone?
Awesome, thanks! I just downloaded the Shamu preview from http://developer.android.com/preview/download.html. Has anyone extracted and installed the images on their rooted 6.0.1? I'd rather not be the first, lol!
Official Release Page:
https://developer.android.com/preview/index.html
Having an OTA of the N preview is Awesome! I want to try it as soon as the site is availble, but I'm not sure how friendly the N preview will be for project fi this early. anyone else on Fi going to try the preview?

Haha yea, I just wish I knew how to make one myself...oh well
I wasn't expecting that, well safe to say this will be last of the preview for us. Safe to say folks with the OG Nex5 won't get android N

Any changes to the launcher?
This flashes just like a regular Nexus image right ? aka unzip, fastboot, etc, etc..............

Probably the coolest features, for me anyway, is built-in options to calibrate the display color (in System UI Tuner) AND change the DPI (in Display settings). I'm not sure if these will make it to the final build, but I really do hope so.
PS: you need to sign up for the android beta program to actually receive OTA updates https://g.co/androidbeta
as stated here: http://developer.android.com/preview/overview.html

mind that it will encrypt your device
The build.prop wifi tether method doesn't seem to work with the N preview at least in the traditional way. Has anyone managed to get it to work?
