For Mohan's Odexed/De-Odexed Version that can be installed from CWM or TWRP Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2228486
Install with ODIN 3.0.7
Thanks to Crackerpie for the Upload to hotfile and to Samsung for making the firmware but make sure to Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache Prior to using the ODIN Tool to Avoid Bootloop
Prerequisites
Make a Full backup of your Data before attempting
Make Sure you have at least 50% Battery
Make Sure you have a Good Condition USB Cable
If Flashing From a Official ROM like the AT&T ICS
If you coming from a Custom Rom (ie CM10.1/AOKP/Embryo) it's best practice to Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik Cache to avoid bootloop
How to Install:
1. Download and unzip the file
2. Download and unzip ODIN
3. Turn Off the device and go to download by pressing and hold volume down + home button and the press the power button until the boot screen shows up.
4. Open Odin and connect your phone with your computer, it should be in download mode when you connect it with odin
5. Once your device is successfully connect of the odin port will go blue.
6. Click on ‘PDA’ and select file KIES_HOME_I727UCMC1_I727ATTMC1_844945_REV02_user_low_ship.tar
7. In Odin select ‘Auto Reboot' and 'Reset Time', Make sure no other boxes are checked
8. Now click the start button in Odin and let the installation process to start.
9. After installation is complete, your phone will restart when you see this unplug the phone from PC
In the Event you get a Bootloop After Flashing
1. Pull the Battery
2. Hold down Power and Both Volume Buttons to get into the stock recovery that was flashed with the Rom
3. Wipe Data/Factory Reset 3 Times, Wipe Cache 3 Times, and Wipe Dalvik Cache 3 Times and Reboot and it will work, it takes the Rom about 5-10 Mins to Settle after being installed so be patient.
To Root This Rom:
1. Download the latest TWRP Recovery Tar here
2. Open ODIN and click PDA and select the TWRP Tar and flash it
3. Download the latest SuperSU 1.25 From here
4. And Flash in TWRP and Boom your Rooted
Once you use Titanium Backup on it it's not a bad Rom but a I know once Mohan has a release it will really start to kick ass for someome who want's a stock based rom
Don't forget the bloat and spyware included.

What are the improved Camera features? I tried searching but I doubt anyone is going to put up the video review of this JB update.
Just installed and running great. Very smooth and very fast. Liking it a lot. Only issue obviously is all the AT&T bloat. Getting good speeds on the new radio, too! Thanks again, forrest!!

Yes but you can regain root by following these instructions
To Root This Rom
Download the latest TWRP Recovery Tar here
Open ODIN and click PDA and select the TWRP Tar and flash it
Download the latest SuperSU 1.25 From here
And Flash in TWRP and Boom your Rooted
Also don't forget the darn CIQ that att loves to put on their crap software
sent from Johnson's JB creation 4.2.2
Call quality is great. Running very well so far with no hickups. I'm surprised how smooth it is even with all the AT&T BS on it. Battery life seems pretty solid far. New radio is good, UCLL3 was a bit faster in terms of data speeds but regarding call quality this radio is great, probably the best. Thanks again, forrest.
Sorry For Noobness But Does this Have the Multiwindow feature also?

Impressions
Coming from Slimbean, here are my thoughts for those that haven't flashed yet:
-Lock screen functionality is missing (used to be able to swipe in different directions in the circle to launch different apps. There are shortcuts on the lock screen, but they dont' look nice. I installed widgetlocker to regain this functionality.
-The pop-up video feature is awesome. I usually use netflix, but if I put some videos on my phone, as a multitasker, it's very cool to be able to have them playing while I do other things on my phone
-I miss how everything was smaller in slimbean. Icons and the items in the notification bar are larger, so everything looks oversized.
-You can't remove items from the pull-down toggles and it takes up a lot of space (namely, brightness which even if you leave on auto, you have to look at every time you pull down the notification bar)
-The calendar is better. You can see events on the month view without drilling down into each day
-Can't customize the power menu. Although profiles weren't working in slimbean, they appear to have been removed altogether from the stock JB
That's all for now. It's not worth going back to slimbean at this point, since it's a stable rom and slimbean would at times crash. However, i do miss the smaller sizes of the notification icons and the ability to fully customize the toggles and the lock screen without 3rd party apps.

Thank you for the info! I'm on Embryo 5.4 at the moment (after flashing pretty much everything that moves for the skyrocket and finding that ICS is the most stable platform for my uses so far) I liked the stock UCLF6 but enjoy the extra customizations embryo gives me (plus the OC'ing)
I think I'll NAND and give this a whirl and see if I can get my ~500M free ram environment that I'm enjoying so much
I can't wait to see what comes out based on this release... Thank God the SkyRocket isn't a dev deadend!
What is the DPI setting for this rom? The default 240?
Thanks again for the info
You could root, change dpi, and flash a multi dpi play store to get your small fonts back.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Note that if you change the DPI, you'd also have to change the default launcher, as TouchWiz does NOT play well at all with DPI changes. You will get a ton of unusable space (last time I tried, anyway).
Stuck on bootloop
I downloaded the file and went through odin and when it got done with andy and the status bar it booted up but it is stuck on the AT&T globe. I made sure the file was finished writing from odin when I unplugged my phone.
WTF is wrong here? I even went back and tried to reload ICS through odin but it is stuck there also. I did not install the recovery for it yet for JB. Is that something I should try and clear everything out and try again?
Your help is appreciated, and thanks.

Thanks all and Enjoy the ROM. Please post feedback as usual.
REMIXES
Barebones Remix V3.0: http://www.multiupload.com/G3RNGFW2S0
The barebones remix was an idea we came up with for those like me, who instantly remove a bunch of apps included in a ROM right after flashing it. This version includes the same features as the original, just has most of the non-necessary apps. Pretty much anything that can be downloaded from the market is removed, here's a removed apps list from tylermaciaszek (Thanks!)

(To First Time installers, System Needs to be set to Unmount, though it would really be mounted. If you do Not do this you will have a softbrick and will have to ODIN to stock and start all over ....) Once you have Flashed a Custom ROM or Bali 2.2 Kernel you dont have to worry about mounts

i don't have any TW problems! I'm actually a huge fan of it now because of this rom
also is anyone else having a problem deleting pictures i delete but they stay there until the reboot
I also had that problem with pictures not deleting, I'll have teddy look into that the next time I talk to him. As far as the TW launcher goes, I don't use it, but it's possible that it still has some bugs, it was ported by Fr4gg0r and is a fairly recent release if I remember correctly.
Gallery issue has been added to the issues list.
I wanted to say great work on the ROM you guys, I'm really liking the look, looks classy and 'professional', and running smooth so far! excellent work

I'm not getting any force close on entering an Exchange account, which field are you adding numbers in?
I'm also not finding any FC in the alarm notifications, did you try wiping the Dalvik-cache after you flashed, if you restored your data?

Tips:
-LauncherPro uses stock Transitions, Use another Launcher if you want the ICS effect when opening apps from Homescreen and leaving/returning home. (such as a GB launcher from the Market or my custom aosp ICS themed launcher from the add-ons section, which is the same launcher from V1.)
-If you turn off auto brightness, you can control the brightness by sliding your finger across the status bar 8)
Use the thanks button if you like the ROM and feedback is appreciated. Be sure to thank my partner Sduvick for his awesome work ! Thanks and please enjoy !

Absolutely beautiful. Coming over from GCV2.
Adding a known issues section to the second post, SU binary is outdated, and launcher auto-rotate doesn't work. Please post if there are any other issues, we would like to get them fixed and updated for you.
Nobody ever posts screenshots of the dialer, I am straight, however anal.

I'm making a bunch of screenshots right now, will be added to the second post shortly.

It is just a Nandroid backup hence there is no problem if you wish to go back to your original ROM after flashing this.
Added - SD Card Class 10 Fix
Added - lto.dat auto download Fix .(Downloads 7 day extended emphersis every 5 days automatically)
This is my first ROM release. I have collected all software from this forum and assembled it to build a stable fast ROM from official SBF.
Suggestions are welcome.
Install README - Step by step flashing guide:
Please do it at your own risk. I am not responsible for any damage of your phone. Rooting voids your warranty. Please backup all data before proceeding.
Download Latest PopcornV2.5 - http://ge.tt/8J61ppO/v/0?c
Extract the PopcornV2.5.zip to your SD card under the folder /clockworkmod/backup/PopcornV2.5. Remember that when you unzip it , you do not have two folders like /PopcornV2.5/PopcornV2.5
Restart the phone it will go in to boot menu or you can press vol - button when you see the blue led light.
Select Recovery-->Custom Recovery
Wipe only Data
In backup and restore, select restore and select the folder PopcornV2.5 and restore it
Wipe Cache
In advance setting , Wipe Dalvik Cache.
Reboot. Once you reboot wait for a while to restart. Once you see the welcome page, try not to skip the initial wizard and connect using 3G or 2G and complete the initial Google registration. This will enable the backup and restore to work smoothly. If you have no APNs during this, click the 4 square icon of your phone to add APN.
Let the phone complete the sync. Start the Market and let it be on for 5-10 minutes to update itself.
Again restart the phone it will go in to boot menu or you can press vol - button when you see the blue led light.
Optional -- Select System-->UnRooting. This will unroot your defy. If you wish to keep root, do not do this step.
Optional -- Select System-->Uninstall Bootloader. It will restart on its own. If you do not wish to remove bootloader, do not do this step.
Reboot and Enjoy. If you unroot and uninstall boot loader, this ROM will be a stock rom with no added preinstalled software.
Optional -- All All Apps in Task Manager Auto End List for a better Battery Life.
Optional -- Select Only 2G in Network Setting if you do not have a 3G data service for a better Battery Life.
Optional -- Calibrate Compass
Optional -- Switch off WiFi & search of open/secured WiFi network if not required
This is CLEAN Froyo at its best. No bloatware. Install your favorite software from Market.
Optional Add BLUR software as mentioned in this post

I have tried to include softwares which are practically needed and removed all other softwares which are not needed by an average user who need stable ROM and Fast ROM. Also anytime you can go back to original rom if you need to claim warranty.
Also this is for GREEN Lens & Red Lens

Good thanks any plans on upgrading froyo to gingerbread?
How did you test and therefore claim it is the fastest rom?
There is no test. But this is my observation with so many roms of Froyo and Gingerbread.
After comparing both the OS, I found froyo to be more stable on Defy and hence worked out this rom.
I tested this on quadrant score of 1393 and the GPS fix is done in 9 seconds
the camera gets the location in 3 seconds... Also camera is more responsive in this rom.
After Installing, install your favourite browser and favourite file browser as I have removed the stock browser and file manager as Market has much better options.
If I keep them, they will unnecessarily be seen in the menu and eat RAM/Battery and many guys dont use them. Hence decided to remove them.
appreciate your efforts in bringing this up... and hope that it better than the stock froyo. However would be kind if you could provide more details on your ROM.
Many would like to understand the difference between this and the others available before jumping onto the rom.
I experience on IN Stock Froyo has been disappointing and the reason I had to switch to CM 7x
Thanks.
Can I install CM7 or MIUI over this ROM? Will it have the new kernel?
Thanks!
What's this ? (+credits)
ICS 4.0.4 MTD English\Hebrew\Chinese ROM based on Beastmode's MIUI v4 2.8.10. - Thanks Beastmode for all your help, you're the man!
Multilingual Aroma Installer - allows you to set installation and ROM language to English/Hebrew and GPS to US/IL.
Through custom installation you can choose whether or not to install :
- Nova launcher (lightest ICS launcher)
- Rocket Dialer (most feautred and fastest dialer)
- Rocket Dialer missed calls plugin
- MultiLing O keyboard + English dictionary (lightest RAM weight keyboard with full swipe support)
- MultiLing O keyboard Hebrew dictionary
- Whatsapp fixed for MIUI (see 2nd OP)
- GalaxySense fancy weather widget by Sevastopol.
- Fastcharge
- Titanium Backup.
Beastmode's Proton ICS kernel (build 2) - taken from here.
This kernel has TWRP 2.4, completely fixed capacitive buttons light, Fast Charge app support and more.
Enhanced build.prop & init.d tweaks with battery & performance tweaks - taken from here, here (Pimp My ROM) and here (Adrenaline Injector) - Thanks to omair2005, Androguide.fr and DSexton702. Gracia!
You can choose not to install the tweaks through the installer.
Auto-brightness fix by Jeffsf. Thanks.
Took 75% of translations from HebMIUI site. - Thanks for the marvelous translations.

Added download app (DownloadProviderUI) a 100MB size limit notification on download.
Added Emoji icons to SMS (integrated new fonts) - taken from here (Thanks to Samsuck).
Replaced Calculator with this enhanced graphic and algebraic calculator by Xlythe. Thanks man!
New boot animation based on "MIUI guy in space". Thanks for this lovely bootani.
Facelock working from the box, no need to flash anything.
SGH-T959W LB6 modem by getochkn for better battery life and faster connections.
Comes with (a translated) NoTelURL app to prevent USSD/MMI exploit. Thanks to the developer Joerg Voss.
Why MIUI ?
It's my favorite ROM. I have checked almost every ROM in this forum and I always come back to this one.
It's incredibly customizable (themes for every possible feature), runs smooth as hell, as stable as can be and all in English/Hebrew.
Jelly bean like task manager built-in : Long press home button brings you a visual button to kill all apps and a task manager.
Jelly bean like full screen toggles - actually Google copied it from MIUI short press to activate/deactivate, long press to get to the specific settings.
Great lock screen with 4 quick options, music player controls, album preview image and digital music bars.
HiFi music player with automatic album image and lyrics download and presentation, built in equalizer and tilt to forward.
Screenshot functionality.
Excellent system apps - browser, file explorer, music player, sound recorder, backup utility, data usage monitor, app autostart, firewall, anti virus - the best you've seen.
Immediate hot boot.
Cool graphics and more.
About 160-200MB free RAM (!)...
Easy to use touch screen TWRP recovery.
FYI
1. SIM card contacts are not available - you have to sync it with Google before flashing the ROM, to be able to have them.
Don't forget that!
I also used the VCF exported file from Samsung contacts.
2. This is an MTD ROM, so if you don't follow instructions carefully you can and will damage and void your phone, IMEI number and functionality.
Back up and save your EFS according to instructions below, before flashing -> or deal with the consequences!
3. To set up NoTelURL to always get activated when you launch suspicious dialer codes - go HERE with your phone (it's a USSD/MMI code test site)
and choose "NoTelURL" as default app for this operation.
Regular phone numbers links will be allowed to call upon confirmation.
Known issues
1. TV-Out, Call recording and 'WiFi calling' are not working.
2. If you suffer from same color background and text in messages, it's because you applied a GB theme over ICS.
I recommend applying "Black android V4.1" (basically all V4 marked themes are for MIUI ICS.
I use it for all except for 'locking method' (I prefer MIUI's original) and 'others' & 'notification bar' where I applied SGS3 theme (to get SGS3 icons in system settings and non transparent notification bar).
They are attached in post #4 and defined in MIUI themes app.
3. To be able to use your own mp3s for notifications, alarms and ringtones - you need to put them in system/media/audio/... {use root explorer or similar app, fix permissions afterwards}.
4. There's a Whatsapp silent notification sound bug on MIUI.
I modified Whatsapp installation to utilize the default system notification sound and it works.
It is available here and comes with the ROM.
Some pictures from HebMIUI :
More pictures...
Installation instructions :
Upgraders from previous versions :
1. Go to recovery.
2. Wipe Cache partition.
3. Wipe Dalvik cache.
4. Flash ROM.
5. Reboot system.
6. Use MIUI toolbox to calibrate battery. follow instructions.
New comers (for GB BML ROM, If you're on CM9/AOKP go straight to step 7) :
1. Backup everything :
a) Synchronize all your SIM contacts to Google. They will not appear in an MTD ROM such as this.
b) Back up all your user apps in Titanium backup.
c) Make a nandroid backup of your ROM through CWM recovery.
2. Download the following :
Team Acid files
efs-backup
efs-restore
HebMIUI V8.4 ROM
Google Apps
SGSIII & Black android V4.1 themes (extract to SDCard\MIUI\themes)
3. Put efs-backup on your SD card and flash it through CWM recovery. It will create 2 EFS backup files.
4. Copy SD Card including the EFS backup files to your PC/Mac.
5. Put HebMIUI zip on your SD Card.
Make sure you have the EFS created backup files from section 3 on your SD card root.
6. Go to Recovery (use hardware buttons - Vol+ & Volume- & PWR. once splash shows, leave the PWR while keeping the volume buttons pushed).
Make sure it's at least CWM5, otherwise flash a newer kernel) and return to recovery.
a) Wipe Cache / Partition.
b) Advanced - Wipe Dalvik cache.
c) Wipe Data / Factory Reset.
d) Mounts and storage - perform Format System.
e) Perform mount /system.
f) Wipe Data / Factory Reset.
7. Install from Zip file - choose the HebMIUI ROM zip.
Follow aroma instructions. If you were on GB - you will be rebooted after BML-->MTD transition and need to repeat installation.
8. Flash Google Apps.
9. Reboot system.
10. Wait for 10 minutes.
That's it! Enjoy!
You can set the themes I put here (in MIUI themes app) if you want to.
Notes :
1. MultiLing O Keyboard has the lowest memory print comparing to any other keyborad supporting slide typing. That's why I included it.
2. Rocket Dialer was added for better Hebrew dialer and contacts support that will last through all MIUI themes.
3. My experience shows that MIUI music player doesn't enjoy audio MODs.
It has its own EQ. If you still want to use music mods - push Apollo.apk from CM9/Beastmode's miui and use it instead of MIUI music player. Not sure it's worth it.
It does work great with VoodooSound free app, which is also crucial if you want to record a live shows with loud audio.
4. Personally I prefer Nova launcher over MiuiLauncher. Also included in installation.
5. If you want to go back to Samsung (BML) ROM (such as HebrewValhalla or HebrewBarebone), go here - HebrewBarebone and follow instructions.
6. How do I know on which HebMIUI version I am? Go to settings --> about phone --> Build.
You will see: MIUI2.8.10 HebMIUI XX_TW or MIUI2.8.10 HebMIUI XX_NT, where XX represents the version number and TW=Tweaked, NT=Not Tweaked.

Hi m4127440
Personally I think first S series of Samsung has crappy TV-out quality.
After getting used to crispy HD movies, using this is not much of an option for me.
As you said, it's not part of the MIUI ROM functionalities anyway, so...

Hi Erik,
You're right. Now I have 484MB internal RAM free !
Installation instructions updated...
Now that installation instructions are updated, most of the issues and bugs are gone and not reptoducing.
Please re-read the first 4 posts, as I updated them.
I will look into the call recording issue, I think it needs and can be fixed.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
keep that good work tzik2sh I already update your thread in the wiki:laugh:
I read a bit.
Call recording is first illegal in the US, second it is kernel dependent.
In my country it is completely legal and it's useful with telemarketers. I once asked AntonX to add it to basic with a twist kernel, but at this point it is over my head and I'll have to look for Erikmm or Hampsterblade's magic.
Edit: maybe this can help...

I'm not a lawyer, but I've heard that call recording in the state of California is legal as long as both parties know that the call is being recorded, which is why you get a lot of "Your call may be recorded or monitored for quality and training purposes" when you call up a lot of customer support places. If you don't want your call recorded you can hang up, but since they tell you that it might happen, they can record.
I wouldn't mind having this functionality enabled after an automated announcement to both sides, but I do want telemarketers to stand for what they say and have an evidence on my side.

Hi Guys,
Here I present the first fully functional MIUI beta build.
A word of caution:
This is a port and not a custom stock rom. This is a beta release. It means the build is stable but there are a few known issues. Keep reading for the list of known issues.
About the Rom:
MIUI port based on deodexed Austrian rom.
Kernel - Ardatdat v4.2beta6 1.32G
What MIUI offers:
MIUI may not be as fast as cyanogenmod but offers a lot in terms of eyecandy, not to mention the unlimited range of themes that can make your phone look like iPhone, like HTC Sense UI and many many more custom themes, just with a button click.
The ease with which you can handle all securities like permission, call filtering etc in MIUI is great.
All in all it a different experience altogether.
What works:
Almost everything
Some theme related Issues: (Theme are in general very usable, feel free to go ahead and enjoy MIUI themes, these are minor issues)
1. On first boot after the installation the wallpaper is not properly alligned. Reboot solves the issues. I forgot to change the stock ICS wallpaper, but you guys can do it youself
2. Lockscreen lags - still unable to fix this but a lot of lockscreens from the themes work faster than default miui lockscreen. Try them out.
3. There is a strange issue where after applying a few themes, lockscreen does not work. It seems like a screen freeze but infact its not. its just that the lockscreen wallpaper does not draw onto the screen. If you scroll over the expected place for the lock screen the screen unlocks and everything works fine. Solution for this could be to not use the theme at all or to use a seperate lockscreen under mix tab. It actually happens because the developer made references to certain image files but are not used in the theme. I think its a mistake by the developer of the theme but ideally we should we able to bypass such scenarios and load the screen anyway. I am working on the same. Please note, it happens for very few themes, themes in general are still very usable.
Note:- Always apply themes without font when promted. This will happen when themes contain fonts. Font changes have been disbaled not only on our patchrom but also on galaxy S2 as well. I guess its a general problem.
The worst: If at all you manage to screw up with the themes and render the system unusable, no need to wipe data. Go to recovery and just delete /data/system/theme folder with adb
Help me make MIUI rom better:
I still need testers to improve this rom. Please feel free to report issues
A logcat, if possible, is always helpful.
My sincere thanks:
To fuss132 and ronak.super for introducing me to the concept of MIUI patchrom. I always thought it was an AOSP thing only :good:
To ardatdat coz i am using his kernel.
To TheFrankenstain, I used his rom as base for a deodexed stock rom.
To chandanbs, hasanjaved, parmarket and all others who reported issues and helped me improve this rom.
Link to the rom:
v1.0
http://db.tt/WT4zSZA5
(Thanks hors_sergio for uploading)
v1.1
http://d-h.st/FoT
How to install:
1. Wipe data / factory reset, wipe cache,dalvik cache.
2. Flash the rom.
3. Flash gapps from here.
http://www.2shared.com/file/A9nNU4Fl/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.htm[/B]l
I recomment not to wipe data / factory reset from cwm or from within the rom after flashing the rom. But if you did and now stuck on boot animation, open CWM and just flash the RestoreMIUI zip from below. This can also be used, if one of the themes messed up your system and you can no longer get the system to boot. No need to wipe data again. Just flash the zip file
RestoreMIUI link:
http://d-h.st/EUQ
This is a full build. No need to apply any updates provided earlier
Note:
Wipe data will remove all your apps and data. Please make neccessary backups.
Please don't directly flash ardatdat kernel over this rom. I made modifications in init script to include miui framework jar and to enable custom bootanimations.
Last, flash at your own risk.
Happy flashing!!
CHANGELOG:
v1.1
Compiled with the latest MIUI patchrom code. Some apps added by default but most are relevant only for the chinese. This is again a full release and not an update. I had to be because I built using the latest MIUI patchrom sources.
Fixes:
1. Fixes the irritating sec MIUI, sec error dialogs. Now if some application crashes we get proper error message
2. LockScreen sound lag fixed. Some lockscreen still lag if you turn screen off and on immediately. But we dont get the default ICS screen anymore. It gives the current wallpaper now. Overall the lag feel a little better.
3. Themes fixed in dialer where background texture were not displayed correctly. Some theme lockscreens will still not work. But most of these themes are not formed correctly becuase I keep getting missing images in the logs and the images are actally missing in the theme package. Maybe there's a workaround somewhere but I can't solve it for now. So lets live with it
4. PIN unlock works now.
5. MIUI backup seems to be working fine now. No issues with Contact backups
6. Tried to fix SIM import issue. Can someone test. My sim card is empty.
7. Can now play mp3 by clicking on it within fileExplorer. I guess it wasn't working earlier.
8. Lot of other small fixes.
v1.0 beta
Fixes:
1. Now no more FC/restarts on App error messges. However, still need to see why we get sec MIUI and sec and not more meaning error messages
2. USB mass storage works now.
3. FC/restart on volume up/down when screen turned off fixed
4. Themeing fixed (most themes working)
5. Added support for custom boot animation (Thanks to freeza from Galaxy III forum for the wonderful article on changing bootanimation and to wanansmile coz I used his trick to stop boot animation)
6. Root and Permission issues fixed
7. Improper shutdown messages fixed
8. App storage calculation fixed. Now you can clear data, clear cache for particular apps.
9. Added support for move app to Usb Storage
10. Fixed no multiple call rings issue
11. Fixed Browser image downloading app Error issue
v0.1
Initial alpha build
A general tip : Sometimes when I change something in settings, it doesn't get saved. Must do it 1-2 more times and it works. If you click on the text for a setting toggle and not the toggle itself, it works a lot better. Probably its meant to be used this way. You get a sound when changes are applied. I cound enable voodoo smart amplifier too when clicking on the text. I can't fix it coz I dont get any errors in logs when clicking the toggle itself.
So do all device functions work ? Like Network, WiFi, Data, Camera, FM, all bundled apps etc. ?

Miui is a aosp based custom rom so it requires different kernel than stock to run. So I have some questions.
1. Can u plz tell what kernel u have used?
2. Is there are some kernel related extra function?
3. Have u removed secured erase? If not data wipe can lead to known emmc super brick.

Please give some info about the kernal. Can we use latest Ardatdat updates? Do I have to flash Australian ROM first to flash MIUI? I am currently on Angeeks custom rom over Nordiac.

Its based on custom stock rom buddy and uses ardatdat kernel. But you can't directly flash ardatdat kernel coz I made init script changes.
I am not sure if you need to flash Austrian rom first. Do it if you want to play safe or maybe you can try directly. I think it should work since you are wiping data. Do let us know the outcome if you choose to try it.

I am not sure if you need to flash Austrian rom first. Do it if you want to play safe or maybe you can try directly. I think it should work since you are wiping data. Do let us know the outcome if you choose to try it.

Buddy, It would be great if you can make an FAQ in OP so that many questions can be answered in a single shot. And please mention the kernal version too. I am not able to flash atm, have to look into it tonight:good:

If you can, apply your mods to all latest (1G and 1.32G) versions of ardadat kernels and add them to OP.
Wow... a working miui! I love you guys!
Can I flash this directly over the maZel II rom, or should I make a clean setup?

Better wipe, install austrian ICS, latest CWM, flash MIUI and any other stuff you want to (like MBB mod), and fix permissions before rebooting.
while granting SU permissions, device freezes and reboots.
after reboot pop-up appears asking SU permissions and accepting it or declining it both freezes device and reboots.
i m unable to provide logcats as phone is not being detected in adb.
also i m unable to use adb, device is not being detected.
