ROM: MIUI ~ OFFICIAL

WHAT IS MIUI?
MIUI is an aftermarket firmware for cell phones based on the open-source Android operating system. It updates every Friday, and it features a heavily-modified user interface that does away with the Android app drawer and has drawn comparisons with Apple's iOS. It includes additional functionality not found in stock Android, including an altered dialer that enables smart dialing, toggles on the notification pull-down, and new music, gallery, and camera apps.

MIUI is developed initially in the Chinese language by Chinese startup Xiaomi. This is then translated and ported in unofficial versions to other languages, including English.

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.

Vad är skillnaden på denna och MIUI 1.9.16: Nothing Fancy V7? Sitter på den just nu!

 

Tyvärr så ger jag dig följande tråkiga svar:

Det är inte alls så stor skillnad mellan de bägge. Vad jag vet så har ROM-"utvecklaren" till den ROM som du använder för tillfället enbart haft nöjet att skapa nytt tema (han/hon kan även ha gjort mer, men då borde utvecklaren skrivit det i sin tråd på XDA-developers).

ROM'en som denna tråd handlar om är den officiella MIUI-ROM'en

 

Tack för ett bra svar! Tror jag ska byta till denna ändå, så man får "orginalet"

 

Det tycker jag absolut att du skall göra! Denna ROM är helt underbar Sedan har man ju alltid något att se fram emot... ROM'en uppdateras ju VARJE Fredag

 

Flashar för fullt just nu Föresten, medans jag ändå skriver, hur tar man en screencap med MIUI?

 

Kolla in sektionen "TIPS & TRICKS". Det står beskrivet där nästan längst upp

 

nu har du minsann övergett cm 7 iaf.. din antikrist!.. välkommen

 

Batteritid

Hallo!

Har sedan länge kört galnets miui men efter senaste releasen är jag väldigt missnöjd med batteritiden. Hur är batteritiden på denna ni som kört den?

 

Om man är på Galnet och vill köra denna är det samma tillvägagångsätt dvs lägg på sd-kort, reset, install ja ni fattar...

 

ja det är samma tillvägagångssätt exakt.

 

Fancy ROM'en bygger på denna förutom att den är tömd på massa bloatware som tex kör i bakgrunden o äter cpu och med några extra nyttiga apps. " It is just a clean and "vanilla" MIUI as I would like it to be by default"
Den uppdateras även ofta när ny version av miui släppts.

 

Haha nja. MIUI bygger ju på CyanogenMod, så inte helt... haha kommer säkert söka mig tillbaka till CyanogenMod igen någon gång
