MIUI for Beginners​
Source: http://en.miui.com/a-10.html
Already flashed MIUI ROM? OK, pick up your phone now, let’s start our happy journey of MIUI ROM.
The first step: selecting apps
Various apps will greatly enrich your cell phone, so firstly let’s select the apps to your taste. Use the Android Market and download what you would like. If you are using a backup app and restoring apps from a previous ROM, only restore the apps and not the data. Otherwise that will create a lot of force close issues.
Tip: How to copy files from the computer to the phone? First connect your phone to your computer via data cable, pull down the notification panel from the top of the phone, click “USB connected”, and then click "Turn on USB storage”.
After copying, do not forget to select the option of “Turn off USB storage”, otherwise "File Manager” in the phone will not be able to find the sd card, as it is being occupied by the computer.
Now I have a lot of apps, how to put them in order?
All apps successfully installed are listed on the desktop, however, they may not be in the order you want, how to put them in order?
Long press an app icon and then you may move it freely. When it is moved to the screen border, the screen will automatically switch to the next screen.
How to add a screen? Use two fingers to pinch on the desktop to enter screen thumbnail mode. Then you may add or delete screens.
How to delete an app? Long press the app icon you want to delete, drag it on top of the trash box and click OK to delete it.
The second step: let's make your phone different.
A phone without style is nothing remarkable, so let’s make your phone different!
Changing wallpaper: Click Menu button on the desktop, select “Change Wallpaper” to replace the wallpaper. In addition to the existing wallpaper in the phone, thousands of pieces of wallpaper are also available online.
Changing theme: Themes make great changes to your interface style. Click “Theme Manager” on the desktop to select the theme you like. Also, more online themes are available online.
Selecting ringtones and more: click “Settings” on the desktop to set call and notification ringtones. In “Personalization” under “Personal” tab, you may find more options.
The third step: it’s time for some advanced techniques!
Well, you are no longer a beginner now, so let’s learn some advanced techniques.
Adding widgets on the desktop: press the Menu button on the desktop, select "Edit Mode", and then click the icon on the upper right corner to access the interface of “Add Widgets”. Choose your favorite widget on the top, and then drag it to the screen below.
Using folders to manage desktop apps: in the interface of “Add Widgets”, drag [Folder] to the desktop. You may drag multiple apps into folders to classify them. After opening the folder, you may click the edit icon in the upper left corner to rename the folder.
Using toggles panel to improve efficiency: drag the notification panel down from the top, click "Toggles" to go to the toggles panel (It goes to the toggles panel in default of notice.) On the panel are listed the most commonly used toggles, you may click to quickly enable or disable a toggle. Long press on the icon will launch the settings for that icon.
Guest mode: enable the “Guest Mode” toggle in the panel, and your calls and text messages logs will be hidden, and all installed applications cannot be removed. You may have a try when you need to show your phone to guests or children.
Importing contacts or binding accounts: you may use some apps to import a batch of contacts, or bind Google account directly in "Settings"> "Personal"> "Accounts & Sync Settings" to sync contacts at any time.
How to print screens? Press "Menu" key and "Volume Down" key at the same time to print a screen. The printed image is saved in the directory of MIUI in the SD card.
How to copy files from the computer without using the data cable? In case of a Wi-Fi connection, enter “File Manager” on the desktop, select the tab of "Remote Administration" to start the service, and then you will get an address. Enter the given address on the computer, then you may copy files without using a data cable!

it's extremely easy.. just copy it to your SD card.. and flash it just like a normal ROM.. but it has to be flashed after the Android ROM..
1) copy it along with the ROM to your SD card
2) flash the ROM
3) flash the patch
4) enjoy

I get force closes with theme manager when trying to apply any theme regardless of it being new or old. Clean install too.
Edit:
Found that after applying a theme and it force closes, to see theme go to settings, personal, and enable/disable custom toggles and it'll work.
Actually, apply each separate theme one by one. They'll all force close but it'll go through when you enable/disable the custom toggles.

HI
Do i need to partition my sd card?

I want to create a central thread which list all the knowledge and work that is already done.
The most solutions are NOT my work!
I will link to the post and add the author,
please thank them for their work.

Screen Refresh
To avoid ghosting you can easily refresh the screen by pressing the n button twice (open and close default launcher).
Hidden back "button"
You can easily go back by swiping in the middle of the topbar from right to left.
(You may need this in stock apps / settings, after getting root you get 2 buttons for menu and back on this area)
Hidden Browser
you can access a browser by typing in an url into the searchbox,
but the browser doesn't work well...

OMGWTF_BBQ modded it for the eInk Display.
Market & gapps
If you have already rooted and want to enable the market by yourself you can use the tutorial on nookdevs from the nook color. GabrialDestruir have tested this and confirmend its working.
Additionally i have written down some steps to activate it by using resources of the touchnooter script.
GabrialDestruir updated his script, i dont know if my tutorial still works
AFTER you get the market working you can
update the market and gapps
or, just update the market.
This will fix the market search too

What's the consensus as to the best launcher to use...
I currently use ADW, which seems to work ok. Biggest complaint is I can't see the text on the settings menus...

I prefer a white backgounnd. So ADW seems to be an only option. I am using ADW EX.

iam using ADW too,
i like it more than Go Launcher or LauncherPro
but when i tried them i recognized some empty settings menus too,

he wants that everybody consider the consequences of using a rooted nook touch.
its definitely a point that everyone has to keep on mind!
rmkenney12 said:
Hi,
I'm not sure who to send this to in the xda-dev
community, but noticed that you were maintaining
the KB articles for the Nook Touch root. I tried
posting to the touchnooter dev thread, but I don't
have the requisite 10 messages, so I couldn't even
thank them.
I've been able to root my N2E with the
touchnooter root: the most recent 1.6.24. I'm
extremely happy with the results, but am having a
major concern that doesn't appear to be getting
proper coverage in that or other roots. (I initially
tried the noogie root with lesser results).
<Rant On>
IE, adb wireless/wifi access.
Nobody seems to be expounding on the fact that
it's an enormous freaking barn-door-size gaping
hole in the security of the N2E(or doing anything
to eliminate it). You yourself mention it in
passing in your KB article, but only give it a single
line.
Essentially, once these things are rooted, they
are -enormously- vulnerable if they are taken out
into the public, either at a Barnes&Noble store,
or at any other hotspot. All it takes is for a hacker
sitting there at that hotspot with a laptop, scanning
all of the IP's in that subnet for IP's that respond
to the adb port, and they can do a simple
#adb install MyFavBotController.apk
or somesuch thing. If adb pukes on them(IE, it's a
non-rooted Nook), then they just keep scanning.
Unless you're sharp and see the notification tab
popping up, you may never notice it. They can
install any freaking thing they want on your Nook.
Evetually you've got hundreds or thousands of
infected Nooks running bots, or some other fun
little thing(s) implanted on them.
Everybody seems to be incredibly happy about how
easy it makes their experimentation, and all of the
root developers seem to be focused on making sure
that adb wireless is enabled, either in the startup
scripting or even in the uRamdisk as with the
touchnooter root.
Sure, you can install the adbWireless app from the
market, and it will turn off adbWireless, but:
a) when you initially run the adbWireless app, it
doesn't even properly report that the adb wifi
function is on. It reports it as off, even though
it's actually still responding to adb connects.
So now you have to remember to turn it on,
and then back off. That does work(for a little
while).
b) it's not permanent with some roots, like the
touchnooter. I disable adb wifi with the
adbWireless app, it's off, and everything is nice
and safe? if I put my N2E through a power
cycle, guess what. It's been turned right back
on again. That's completely whacked.
1) For one thing, as an older person I may
forget to use adbWireless to keep turning
adb wifi off after power-cycles. Over and
over and over again.
2) Even if you remember, there's a window of
access during power-up that's about 30-60
seconds long before you'll be able to run
adbWireless to shut things down. A hacker
could do a lot of damage to your Nook in
that time.
3) I have heard rumors of Nooks turning
turning themselves back on after being
powered off. So now you could be in a
hotspot, your Nook could turn itself on in
your knapsack without you even knowing,
and the hacker sitting there has all the
time in the world to beat on your poor little
Nook.
It's BONEHEADED. adb Wifi should NOT EVER be
automatically turned on by the bootstrap. NEVER.
If developers of these roots want to make it easy for
the users or other devs using them, then simply
bundle the adbWireless application along with
SuperUser, Yahoo, and the other apk's they've
included in their root distro's.
Let the -users- decide when and where it's safe for
them to use adb Wifi. Devels are NOT doing them a
service by forcing adb Wifi on them, or encouraging
them to use it under dangerous circumstances.
</Rant Off>
Sorry, but I have a rooted Nook that I'd like to take
outside the confines of my home. Unfortunately,
I don't dare to now. So yah, I'm feeling cranky :-(
rev0l. -please- pass this on to any developers
you might have contacts with.
Thank you!

i dont know if someone can disable the access over adb by default...
may you can use apps like tasker or automate it to disable wifi when your accesspoint is not in range or start the adbwifi app while connecting to a public wifi.

I love Zeam.

I think that the best way to avoid the wireless adb security hole would be to enable adb over usb and disable adb wireless if it is possible.
I have read on irc someone (maybe JesusFreke) saying that we just have to do something like modifying adb or doing something else (I don't remember very well)

I'm also trying to find out how to adb with usb. In particular I'm looking to get my N2E to connect to my iPhone running MyWi 4.0. I've read that the nookdevs Ad-Hoc_WiFi wpa_supplicant file for the NC will work with the N2E, but I haven't found a way to connect with USB and I'm too scared to try it over wifi in case it goes wrong and I won't be able to connect with adb over wifi to fix it. Any help would be much appreciated.
Edit :
Managed to get ad-hoc wifi working by pushing the fixed wpa_supplicant.adhocfix file to the /system/bin/ folder with adb over wifi.
Then, I switched the wifi off on the N2E and opened terminal emulator and did the following :
Code:
su
adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
mount
cd /system/bin
mv wpa_supplicant wpa_supplicant.old */make backup of original wpa_supplicant file/*
mv wpa_supplicant.adhocfix wpa_supplicant
chmod 755 /system/bin/wpa_supplicant
exit
I am now able to connect to my iPhone's MyWi hotspot.
For security when connecting to a public hotspot, I have installed the ttxapps wifi adb app from the android market and turned off adb over wifi, meaning I can toggle it on only when I wish to connect on my home network.

does anyone have system restore image?

I figured out how to get a full factory "re-image" of my nook touch.
I followed the instructions for the nook color here:
Method two: Set the Boot counter to 8 by typing
http://nookdevs.com/Flash_back_to_clean_stock_ROM
I rooted my nook touch using touchnooter. Loaded up the amazon app store and played around for a while. But I found after I rooted the nook that the nook store didn't work any more. So i wanted to get back to factory state. I then installed the wireless adb app. I logged in to my nook using my linux pc and followed the above directions. After the re-image you have to do a data reset by going in and restoring to factory settings in the nook itself.
As soon as I gave the reboot command it started the re-image as seen in this link:
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-p...2E_Restore.JPG
I'm sending you this message because I'm a "noob" and can't post in the developer forums. So if you wouldn't mind reposting for the others to use.

Was anybody else able to get to "Restoring Factory Image..." dialog?
It happened to me after 20+ resets, I was just searching for bricked N2E solution and kept on pressing the button... I would like to know how to replicate this again

i tried it with the 8 times boot failure method, it brings up the factroy reset screen, but it does not the reall factory reset, root and some other stuff were still n the nook after this "factory reset" don't know..
and don't tried (or even read) the method from the pm...
too busy at the moment :/

Inspired by rmkenney12 (and rev0l), I updated the uRamdisk file from TouchNooter 1.6.24 so that adb over wi-fi does not run at boot.
Disclaimer: Don't try this unless you know how to restore your nook in case it does not work.
To install the new uRamdisk:
Unzip the attached file somewhere, then...
Code:
adb connect <nook>
adb shell mkdir /cache/boot
adb shell mount -o rw -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /cache/boot
adb push <path>/uRamdisk /cache/boot
adb reboot
Cross your fingers and hope it works.
You will also want to download an app to turn adb on and off. Search market for 'wifi adb'.
P.S. Does anyone know specifically what needs to be changed in the uRamdisk to enable adb over usb?

This guide isn't working for me. It says that after you create a noogie sd card, just pop it in, start the nook and it will mount the 7 partitions....
What 7 partitions? They never show for me. When I start the nook with the card inside it mounts the "boot" partition which is 64.8 out of 74.7 megabytes.
That's it. That's all I see. Inside of this partition are the files that were contained in the noogie image.

anyway, i don't know if windows can recognize all partitions...
download a live cd linux and try again

Ok... This is on windows 7. I dont know how to use Linux.
I am trying to root the Nook STR and using the guide provided here. It just gets stuck at the rooted forever screen, and the rest is as described in previous post.

Well, generaly it's stable enough for everyday use, but there are some lags.
F.E. - launcher theme reset (affected after system restart)
Haven't tried to disable all kind of animations, but I think it might solve the problem.
Also its' performance is lower than CM10 builds.
Personally I don't like MIUI, so I switched back to Quarx builds.

Works fine except for Cellular Signal, i can't get phone signal, network manual search doesn't work. is any way to solve this? like a baseband patch

[DEV][ROM][JB 4.3][Unofficial] PAC-man

Issue:
No BT call.
Broken audio in VOIP (viber,skype,teamspeak etc). Tinyalsa would fix that, but it breaks calls.
Mic key (voice search) works, you need to enable: settings -> system -> hardware keys -> enable custom actions (check) and app switch set to voice search.
To get home key logn press action: settings -> system -> hardware keys -> enable custom actions (check) and home key (long press) set to Recent app switcher
When you upgrade, phone app may not work, you must remove the shourtcut, and readd. (thanks scotte9999)
Sometimes it stuck boot logo (cm,samsung,roger), please remove the battery and wait atleast 5 minutes,
Offline charger, you can leave with removing charger and holding power button for 2 sec, and glide will boot.
Liblight works very simple, when your lcd birghtness low buttons and keyboard light is on. You can use qwertyled or other liblight,read more.
Slow storage performance in some apps.

included, original gapps doesnt compatible with tegra2 devices.

Thanks for the quick reply man, flashing as we speak; haven't updated my ROM in ages Will report back any findings.
edit: Apart from some text to speech crashes, everything's peachy so far

so far so good gooodwork!

flashed, no problem so far (except the known issues). No lag wake or delayed-until-wake SMS seen, but i've just flashed the ROM for 12 hours so I can say that they are reduced, but i'm not sure if they are fixed or not. I prefer the old style quick setting button, but this is good tho

Wow, I was surprised at how functional this was for how new the thread is.Everything I've tried has worked with no issue (basic functions, data, a2dp bluetooth, sd card, wifi, gps). going to try and Wifi tether and actually trying to use the "phone" functins when I get a chance.
One thing so far, I don't think this has been said, is that the recents takes forever to pop up (like 6-7 seconds!). I tried remapping it away from the home button, but it still didn't speed up.
Also, where do I customise those handy shortcuts in the recents? and wtf is a ribbon?

it looks like there's some problem with the WiFi toggling.
Action: pressing the WiFi button on quick setting panel and the quick pulldown menu
Expected result: the button flipped and show the new icon indicate that the WiFi has been turned on
Actual result: the button flipped, but the icon is still the old one (it's the icon when WiFi is off)
I tried going to setting and press the WiFi button, it switched from "Off" to "On" and stayed there for about 10 seconds, then switched bak to "Off" again.
It's pretty rare 'cause I only met this twice after 2 days using, a reboot will solve the problem.

better, but not must.
Phone app changed, so you must remove shortcuts and readd.

Bug: when you try to use the navbar widgets, the system UI get crash.
Sent from my SGH-I927 using xda app-developers app

Today I got a lot of "Cell Broadcasts" messages, contents are unreadable (only weird symbols), this ended after a reboot, anyone ?
BTW, when plugin in the charger while the phone is off it displays a charging icon (a circle with a battery), normally it will automatically turns on the phone when the battery reaches - let's say - 15%. But to this ROM it doesn't, I have to do a manual reboot.

* It is very important to clear factory data/cache after installing the CM7 rom.
* If your stuck on the android boot screen, connect usb and do a logcat to see what it is crashing on.
* The battery_charger has been replaced in this build as a safety backup to get into bootmenu. Anytime the phone is powered off and then plugged in it will boot to bootmenu instead of the charging screen.

I make all wipe data/cache and even Dalvik cache before and after install CM7 - but I stuck on the android boot screen.
But note: I made all wipes from CWM, because stock recovery is not works on my phone (only green robot and yellow triangle and that's all - nothing key works, only pull battery helps).

How can I make this (run logcat)?
Thanks for the advices.

Im not sure the clear data/cache works right in CWM. I have not tested it. To access the menu in the stock recovery hit the Home key.
To output a logcat open a command prompt and run "adb logcat"
If you want to output it to a file use "adb logcat > filename.txt"

so there is some querrys:
- torch app does not work as a flashlight, while it stay in status bar and even task killer wont help
- led notification light does not work at all, i guess there is no app for that and original is missing
- it wont unlock sim card, or lock it while it's unlocked. message is "incorrect pin". previously unlocked on other phone sim works fine. pin correct.
- the reboot menu list wont operate with joystick, only touch.
- both cameras wont work in skype, when forced induce crash.
- dev tools options become a force close
- voice dialer started by long press call button opens in wrong screen orientation and does not work. it work if started from all apps.
- superuser does not ask about allowing su permissions, there is no app listed as allowed su perm. while all super su apps works fine as usual.
- yandex maps app issue. rendering map result is quite not what it should be

I did it! Thanks for stock recovery main key (Home) .
And now some my notes (first, I use Russian language and CM7 has it).
- torch app doesn't work - this right for me too;
- about led - not work too;
- about sim - not check this yet;
- the reboot menu OPERATE for me with D-Pad;
- I don't use Skype;
- dev tools work in full for me;
- all correct about voice dialer;
- it's right too;
- don't install yandex maps yet.

a lot of apps that uses the hardware gpu does not work properly, i guess this is same as camera driver problem and it can't be resolved till motorola releases it freely(only if)
also i am having issue with call ringtone - it rings for fraction of a second and then goes silent

I missed some egl librarires in the build, copying the attached files to /system/lib/egl should correct some of the graphic issues.
