[Q] Best Rom I have Found is MIUI. But want to have more updates

Best Rom I have Found is MIUI. But want to have more updates. Would like to know where you get the weekly updates or better yet can some one tell me how to add it to ROM Manager then I can just get the update there.
Here is what I have Tried so far
WarmTwoPointTwo RL5 (Great Rom if you like Sense) Good Job
EivO 2
Ava-froyo
Koni Elite
CM7 w/4G (Really Great Rom) Just don't like the dialer
HTC EVO 4G got First Day. Rooted 2 weeks ago.

More updates? MIUI is updated weekly, which makes it one of if not the most often updated ROM there is (excluding CM nightlies). Anyhoo, I agree with you wholeheartedly that MIUI is the best ROM out there and would like to personally welcome you to the MIUI family Not sure about ROM Manager because I prefer to do everything manually (not to mention Amon > Clockwork). Here is the link to the MIUI forums where you can grab the updates.

Miui
Thanks Downloading now ..... Been trying a bunch of differant kernels as well.
Really like this rom...
Any word if there will be 4g added soon?

MikFroyo is also one of the better (if not best) Sense roms.
I use Miui as well.
No need to make this thread though lol...

I know they are working on adding 4G but I have no clue when it will happen. The problem is that the ROM is actually developed in China and is closed source, the guys who give it to us just do the porting and translation. So it's up to the Chinamen to add the 4G, and since there are no EVOs in China, I'd imagine it's not a top priority for them.

4G is a big deal here in the usa. Is there any want to donate to them to get the job done sooner?
Thanks in advance

Donate to the Chinamen? I'm not sure. I'd post that ? over at the miui-dev forums. Keep in mind, they didn't build the ROM for the USA or even for the EVO. It is made for the N1 and the awesome devs here are the ones porting it. I would just sit tight, we'll have it soon enough.

Ok, this build is pretty much the same. But I love it. Iphone 4. Theme

The bulk of the differences between builds are under the hood, but new features do get added all the time. I know there is supposed to be some big UI overhaul coming soon but couldn't tell you when.

Love love MIUI, just wish it had better battery life. Phone is losing 10-12% / hour just sitting idle, wifi or 3g doesn't make much difference. I need to try another kernel for sure, just not sure which one and hoping the update this week (if it gets released for Evo) fixes some things.

Have you tried reflashing? There is something going on with your phone, mine can sleep overnight and not lose a single % point.

Same here mostly. Sometimes I lose up to 4% while I sleep, but that's generally on the days I sleep in.

Updated more frequently?! Why? I've been skipping every other update, lol, because I think they update it too often!
Go to miui-dev.com and join in the fun. If you like tweaking, flash the mods and try out some themes.

The mods they have posted are kinda blah.
One bug I found is the time on the text messages is like 6 hours off on the popup and
where it displays all of the threads. When you go in to the message it displays the right time. Little bit of a pause on lock screen.
Overall this is the Best rom I have tried.
Just get 4G and I will never look back.

That's not a bug, it's a setting. Go to the text app, hit menu then scroll to the bottom and hit advanced. Scroll down to where it says Sort SMS by date and make sure that slider is off so it says sort messages by time received locally. That should clear that up.

[Q] How do I "unsluggish" my epic?

I've rooted my epic with the rooted fc09 stock rom. Put a couple of tweaks in build.prop and tried the supercharger script, which was a disaster so I restored a back up. I've tried different launchers (twlauncher was fine, to be honest, but ended up with the FC problem that everyone evenetually gets) like Go and now FTL and ADW. But everything is really laggy and sluggish and it's really frustrating.
Didn't realize how little memory this thing has so it hovers in the 50-100mb free range, but I don't think that should be the problem right? I know it wasn't like this when I first got it and I've checked what's running and not a lot (I already killed the drm stuff, although I'd love to know how to get rid of media hub).
It seems the stock rom should be able to perform okay - this isn't a majorly used phone (facebook, messaging, web are pretty much everything it's used for), so, at least for now, I'd just as soon stay on rooted stock vs a new rom. And upgrading isn't happening for another 8 months. So...any suggestions or pointers from anyone??
Thanks!

My other Epic was very laggy with ADW so put Zeam on it and hadnto redo my GFs homescreens exactly the way they were....or else...lol.

Have you tried the Peoples ROM it is stock rooted but on MTD? Your sluggishness and FC almost sound like EXT4 unstable issue with battery pulls ect.

Haven't tried any other roms yet, but I'll be damned if the ICS review doesn't look amazing. If I was going to jump, I'm thinking that might be where I'd go. Any quick big gotchas there?
I was also curious if you could expand on the ext4 unstable comment? Haven't had to do any battery pulls until after the supercharger script (don't know if the battery pulls are cause or effect in your comment). Also, I probably should have mentioned that this is BML stock (I realize I would have to "convert" to go to any other rom).

The battery pulls caused the unstable effect on EXT4 which was the knock on it. Not sure if you are on EXT4 or not pure stock is RFS. Beware of any ICS ROM's battery life isn't the greatest so if that is important to you avoid. They have come a long way with mods etc. but still can be a hassle. If you really want to jump from stock may I recommend CM7 great battery life and super smooth and fast
EDIT:
Just remember something about journaling on EXT4 off caused the unstable issue and on solved it? I think I still have the zips let me know if you want to try but you need to find out if you are EXT4 or RFS there is a command you can type in terminal but i can't seem to locate it at the moment.

Cm7 is really nice but I prefer ics to it, cm9 is really smooth and has almost if not everything is working, aokp has a lot of features and I prefer it over cm9 except the later builds have been sluggish for me. Right now I'm on paranoid android and its awesome, but its only on alpha right now so if you want everything working go with cm9 or aokp, or cm7.
I find the stock rooms were all sluggish though but I haven't tried one since ei22 so my opinion might not count there. Try em all qbking77 has easy to follow guides and if you find one you like stick with it

As much as I preferred the ICS of CM9, for pure speed CM7 under Gingerbread with Zeam launcher was my sweet spot for maximum speed.

Don't know if it was the wipe, the switch to MTD, or the switch to The People's Rom, but it performs much better now actually.

I vote all of the above but my first guess would be The Peoples Rom LOL.

I agree. I was on CM9 from its alpha days up until Beta 4. Amazing ROM, but it was never as speedy as the last MarcusantRom I was on prior to ICS. I closely watched the development of TPR by Kenny as I stuck with CM9. Performance was good, though it was slower than I wanted. Then I started getting annoying FCs on apps and would have to restart them. Plus I was on an old PRL and EI22 and wanted to update to FC09. So I decided I would make the jump back to GB, hoping to get back my speed.
Short story long, TPR is by far the quickest and snappiest Rom I've ever used. Not as feature rich as others may be, but I think that's a plus, because it has all the necessary tweaks to make it fly. And that's the beauty of Android. You can customize it to your heart's content.

Debloated Original ROM

Hi guys can you tell me please if there is a ROM that pretty much stock but without that ATT garbage,rooted and may be with few tweaks but pretty much stock ROM ? Cause I am having all kind of little issues with CM10 ..but I just love GUI and stuff ....anyone ?
Thank you !

You could always just root, install titanium backup and uninstall the bloat yourself.
But did you check the development thread?

Yep! Just curious, what issues are you having with Cyanogenmod 10? I'm using it and is 100% better than TouchWiz stock without the bloatware.

Thank you for your reply and actually I kinda lost this topic I created. Now I had few months with my phone and here what I can say including your question on what issue I had. Well first of all there are simply 2 things that I just love in stock and REALLY love to have them on my CM10 or other it sound silly but it's a weather widget and original ring tone I mean it sounds idiotic but I simply can't find this widget on it's own anywhere. I spoke with some guys in IRC channel and he gave me 27 step instruction on how to extract widget from original rom and then make it work on other roms and then actual install ...well I stuck on step 3 so .... never mind that. But I really want to have it on my screen. And that ringtone I can't find it for nothing, I searched here and torrents and everywhere I could not find it. So if someone already extracted that widget that'll make my live so much more. Now to bit more serious stuff. It been some time and I don't know about fresh versions but one I installed when I wrote original post I had major problems with games, frames in games were much lower than on original rom, many times once game is installed in Play Store and you start program and it trying to load actual game data I'd get error message saying device could not be identified download failed, one example I remember is Order and chaos actual game installed in Play Store yet when I started it game gave me error about unknown device, also MX Player had some problems with playing some mkv that I have when original rom no problems ..and other small things as well. Like I said I have not tried it for some time but if someone can point out that widget and ringtones from Original i747 that'll be really nice. And very important game performance. I just load Most Wanted on the phone and I can "feel" it game pulls every bit of cpu and gpu out of the phone cause I can see frame rate and as smooth as it should but game graphic is amazing on that game so don't know.
Anyhow that's pretty much it, once again thank you for your answer and may be someone can point something out for me or give me advice on good rom for games and that damn widget I like so much.
Thanks guys !
I manage to get ringtone name: "over the horizon" all version on internet are not the same as in the phone, similar but not as good. And here is screen shoot of widget I am taken about ... I really like it

I honestly dont go to stock but i remember seeing a apk for the widget im pretty sure if you didnt remove that you could reinstall that on whatever rom you chose

I use intergalactic v1.1. Basically stock plus some tweak. I came from cm10 too but need the all share cast function. Will switch back to cm10 when 4.2 is ready which includes the miracast stuff in default.

Hi guys !
For past several weeks I've been using CM10 ...then they released 10.1 and everything stop working. I had a lot of problems with core apps like play store ,. Bluetooth and alarm and my games crashed a lot as well. I switched to .....pink unicorn and it actually working pretty good, they now have OTA, then for some reason my Order and Chaos start to crash all the time and I had no choice to go back to vanilla.
Thank you for that intergalactic ROM I have not tried it yet but as of 1.6.13 you still think it's good ? I really can use something like that. And in general what's new in Original rom - garbage scene ....is there something new beside intergalactic ?
Thank you !

Phone locking up on Black screen

So my phone has been having these weird lock ups when it's in deep sleep it will just stay locked on a black screen and I would have to pull the battery. I will list the roms I have used and the trouble shooting I have done. I think it might be something with TW since CM10 by Hakcenter works perfect and does not lock up even after 3 weeks of testing but I can't stand the volume bugs and microphone bugs so I couldn't keep it as a daily.
Trouble shooting
-I have not under volted or over volted any roms
-I have not under or over clocked the roms. They run at 300Mhz Min and 1000Mhz Max
- Switch governors from Pegasu to Smartassv2
- Tried 4 different Roms SHOStock v1.0 and v1.1, Project X 3.3, 3.4 and 3.6, Recalked in JB Latest Deodex, Jellyverse Latest
- I am NOT running any lockscreens
- Rotation setting is always set to manual aka auto rotation is off
- Latest PRL for Metro PCS
- Tried 3 Diff kernels for TW Agats Based and avoided 1.4.0 due to bugs
- Tried installing apps one by one painstakingly slow and they're not the culprits
- I am not running DS Powersaver
-Agats 1.3 and 1.4.2F Kernel

How do you recognize its locked up? Trying to power on? Does it show any light or flicker? Or just doesn't come on when hitting power button?
Mine I thought was locking up and such and it was my power button choosing when to respond
That's my 2 Cents lol
Hope you get it situated brother

The screen wont turn on from the power button but the power button works flawlessly when it doesn't lock up. I apply about 60-70% of the button down and it will unlock so the button is on point.

I have been through 2 phones with power buttons and the first time as you (not saying your ISN'T locking g up) I thought mine was locking up but it was the power button... So I had to plug it into a charger to power it on and then unlock.... Then ofcourse somebody introduce to me the app gravity that made me not need it.... Atleast until I got a new one

Yeah I had that problem with one of my old replacement S2's but thats not the case here. I checked it and I use gravity screen as well and it still locks up lol.

I'm sorry o couldn't be of more assistance brother ... Good luck :thumbup: nd I'll let ya know if I find anything.... Subscribed

Did you try sxtp's kernal 0.5? I have been using that one and I get 1/10th the lockups I was getting with the ones cooked into the roms.
IMO, when you root and change roms, you have to expect a few lockups every now and then. Just part of the game with my phone.

I never once experienced a lock up like these prior to jellybean roms. I'm thinking it's something to do with TW since CM with JB 4.2.2 works flawlessly.

I thought I saw you post in the CM thread you were getting lockups with it too?

That CM thread i just offered advice to others to avoid lockups from what I've read. I'm pretty sure I didn't post it was happening on CM though.
Edit: Oh I did on the nightlies but that was dirty flashing the Official over the gentlemen's CM.

I'm the exact opposite, on TW roms no lockups ever, but on CM I always get 1 or 2 a day guaranteed.

Back up device to you're PC and Odin gb27 rooted full restore one click...
I think a clean slate would help...
Also...I would imagine , since you're a knowledgeable member , that you wipe data,cache,dalvik..when flashing. But do you ever go in and format the system...you can actually format everything but sdcards..and be alright. I never do. I just format the system. So nothing gets left behind.
Just my thoughts...on what I would do in this situation..good luck. Let me know how it goes.

Locked up twice since flashing a TW rom. Does anyone know anything that could be causing this? What exactly is the google services glitch that i hear can cause this on some phones?

What kernel are you running? I know some people have problems with Agat's v1.4.2 and v1.3 seems to work better for them.

It happens on both 1.3 and 1.4.2F. I really can't seem to figure out what is causing it and i don't think a logcat will actually show anything.

So your device is unresponsive, even when plugging in a charger? If this is the case, you may not even be able to grab a logcat. I would say this definitely sounds like a kernel issue, but on all those different versions... doesn't lead me to believe that's the case. And this only happens on TW based roms? Multiple Roms by multiple developers... Do they all include the AIO mod? I ran into major issues placing my theme into the latest AIO.

Which KitKat 4.4.x ROM have you used on an SPH-D710 and would recommend?

A few years ago this seemed to be limited to either Cyanogen or a couple other ROMS, I had performance issues with CM9 and used a custom ROM instead. Now it seems like everyone has their own flavor and builds. I'm currently on a 4.1.2 ROM, I think it was SlimBean.
I'm just looking for a close-to-stock 4.4 ROM for Sprint Epic 4g Touch, that is stable and works. Does anyone have a ROM you have tried and would recommend?
I'm leaning towards Mookie or CM11
Thanks and sorry for the noob post.

Its not kitkat, but have you checked out Project X ? I am running KitKat on my nexus tab. Though have solid custom rom options that am bouncing between , really wish I could install Project X .

I already installed CM11 VILLUMINATI. It was a bit tricky, but after following the steps at the bottom of page 77 of that thread, I got it running and it seems fine so far. CM always takes some time for me to get used to, so I'll run it for a few days and see how it goes.

Hope it goes well. Must say, battery life is crazy good and the highly customize-able launcher (can save settings and implement when flashing updates et cetera) @bilgerryan created are awesome - like borderline time for a tattoo time awesome. Not to mention the folks in the forum are cool - good people. Anyway, good luck with everything.

Thanks! So far, I only have a few issues with the build. I can't figure out how to get rid of the Google search bar at the top and I can't figure out how to scale the number of columns/rows on the desktops. Other than that, the lack of 4G is hardly noticeable, even here in Silicon Valley. Can't get Kies to restore my data via USB, going to try WiFi connection tonight.

From my experience, you can't do anything with kies unless you have the version of android that's originally on the phone. So it's either Kitkat or 4.1.2, bloatware, and kies. I think we both know who the clear winner is here! I've also been using the VILLUMINATI ROM and I've had exceptional battery life and fast response from my phone at the same time. As for the Google search bar at the top, I think that is permanent unless you download one of those custom theme app thingies (can't remember what they're called), but doing that kinda defeats the purpose of having Kitkat for me, as I absolutely love the new white theme with everything. I've also noticed that from using those theme apps before that they tend to drain battery fast.
EDIT: As for 'what rom I would reccomend' it would have to be VILLUMINATI, even though it's the only one I've used so far. It works, and it's good. I'll be using this rom until there is a better update somewhere, or if I find a game breaker somewhere.

You know there are custom TouchWiz ROMs out there don't you? With tons of extra features and no bloatware. I say try my Project X and see if you still go with the bug-filled AOSP ROMs with quiet mic volume and speaker volume. BTW Kies is useless, try using Titanium Backup or ROM Toolbox next time.

Ok, I'll take a look at your rom later, thanks. Also, I have never really used kies except just to see what it was, I was just referring to the post I quoted.

A few years ago this seemed to be limited to either Cyanogen or a couple other ROMS, I had performance issues with CM9 and used a custom ROM instead. Now it seems like everyone has their own flavor and builds. I'm currently on a 4.1.2 ROM, I think it was SlimBean.
I'm just looking for a close-to-stock 4.4 ROM for Sprint Epic 4g Touch, that is stable and works. Does anyone have a ROM you have tried and would recommend?
I'm leaning towards Mookie or CM11
Thanks and sorry for the noob post.

Here are my two cents. Personally, I like VILLUMINATTI better than Mokee, mainly because Mokee has a weird thing it does when scrolling lists. It makes the lower list items really small, and expands them to full size as you scroll down a list. Cool looking once or twice, but not something I can handle on a daily basis. They are both extremely fast and smooth ROMS, and they use very little RAM, like 30% less! Just make sure to get the best ICS modem for your area (mine was FE22), update the GPS config file using FasterFix, and load in Textra so you can activate MMS easily. Of course, you'll loose 4G and dock connectivity with either ROM.
However, I can't use the 4.4 ROMS right now because they both have the same two bugs. Firstly, the Orientation Sensor doesn't respond correctly. Secondly, they don't communicate well with Google Glass (no phone calls). So I went back to Touched By an S4 ROM, which is a TW based 4.1.2 ROM that performs really well "out of the box".
Once those two bugs are fixed I'm definitely switching back to VILLUMINATTI CM11 because it unleashes this phones true capabilities.

Given the above offerings, coupled with the fact that only the individual user can make their own determination as to what is most stable for their device, going to close this.
XDA is not a support site as it relates to asking what is most stable, best etc, for roms and or kernels. This is because threads like these become places of arguments and trolling commentary.
All users are expected and encouraged to do their own research and review of development threads to arrive to the answer they need.
