D1-MIUI.US-1.5.20

This build is MOSTLY STABLE BUT STILL BETA according to the miui.cn developers.(and concured upon by TP4Bama and MagiMan7) MIUI build based off of the 1.5.20 build from china(MIUI.CN)

This build was ported to the droid by TP4BAMA and MagiMan7, translations to english were done by MIUI.US


Follow us on twitter for real time updates!
@tp4bama
@magiman7

If this is your first time trying Miui, read the Miui Manual (credit The Batman) to become familiar with the interface and many of the hidden options.


Code:
#include <std-disclaimer>

/*Anything you do to your phone is solely your responsibilty, you choose
 to modify your phone. This rom has been marked BETA by the developer,
 however should anything happen to your phone neither of the developers
 "MagiMan7 and/or Tp4bama" nor miui.us nor miui.cn developers are liable 
 in anyway.*/

KNOWN ISSUES:
  • Flashing zip files over the rom after flashing might cause reboots while downloading market apps, make a backup before flashing zips!
  • Apps dont automatically load, use the Miui Backup app to backup /restore apps
  • If you have having launcher force closes, switch back to the stock theme to verify the theme is not causing the issue.
  • MMS Videos playback as slide show,. (Chinese devs know about this!! There is a problem across all builds with attaching vids to mms) If you NEED video mms, DON'T USE THIS ROM. If you don't NEED video mms than DON'T COMPLAIN
  • Instead of *228 call *228+ (hold 0 for + sign)
  • Facebook will sync ALL contacts
  • Hear camera initialize once after every full boot
  • Autobrightness is slow to change (see fix below)
  • Camera crashes when zooming with autofocus enabled

AUTOBRIGHTNESS FIX
The screen may take 10-30 sec to change brightness level when moved from bright to dark environment. This can be sped up to around 5 sec by disabling the Light Sensor Filter. To do this go to Settings -> Display Settings -> Advanced Mode (Under Automatic brightness) -> Turn off Light Sensor Filter at the top.

CAMERA FIX
Turn autofocus off on the menu and on the main screen. Both have to be turned off or the camera can be glitchy. Autoflash may be re-enabled without causing issues after autofocus has been disabled.

LOCKAPP / UNLOCKAPP INFO
Run lockapp script in terminal or from gscript. Both scripts are located in /system/xbin. Both scripts take a single argument, the process name. For example the Miui Music player has the process name com.miui.player. You can find process names for most installed apps under /data/app (just drop the -1.apk from the name listing).

To lock an app in memory you run lockapp PROCESS. For example, to lock the Miui Music player into memory, run 'lockapp com.miui.player' As a warning, Do not lock more than 1 app in memory. To lock an app in memory, the app has to be running. If the process is not running, the script will inform you.

Once an app is locked into memory, the only way to remove it from memory is to kill the process. The unlockapp does extactly that. It is run with the same arguement, unlockapp PROCESS. If you wanted to unlock the Miui Music player from memory, run 'unlockapp com.miui.player' This will kill the app you are unlocking from memory. If you want it to run the background unlocked, you will have to re-run the app.

Please test these scripts I have not done extensive testing on these, so please test and report back your results. I hope this will alleviate all of the issues with killing music and exchange email apps running in the background.

There's still not an option to change the colors/background of text messages/conversation in the stock messaging app huh?

The only way I know to do this is to apply a different theme.

Eh for sure! I was looking forward to that one but i'll stick w/ GoSMS. Im always into the habit of wiping and all that (backing up everything) before I use a ROM just so it's fresh so i'll post again with more compliments & few bugs. I never really have bugs though.

Magiman7 did u add zeppelinrox's tweaks to this build so we don't have to run his script after install? I noticed u crediting him in the op for some memory tweaks.

Yes, I did adjust the memory settings like zeppelinrox's script does. I set it at the multitasking memory levels because I added option to lock an app in memory. You can still use his script if you prefer using one of the other setting options. (Balanced, agressive, etc). Nothing I did should conflict with the script, so it should run fine. If you tell it to undo any changes, it should default back to the default multitasking settings of the ROM.
