sorry guys. Work has picked up something serious, so i don't have much, if any, free time at this point. Probably won't for the next week or two. Once this deal is finalized and the product is officially sold, i'll be able to devote alot of free time, and not have to worry about financial stability for quite some time.

I haven't given up, just have to prioritize things for my own wellbeing for the time being.

read this damnit! A week just passed from this post and you guys are begging for beta 3?
 
Read the quote correctly. He posted that may 9th, which was about a week ago. and he states clearly

read bold pls
thx
 
Samsung admire did you ever get your gps working? if so how did you get it working? I would ignore his comments about his working he is probably referring to CDMA/ IP based GPs and not the standalone GPS?

mine also doesnt work, I have a vitality, with the stock rom it worked but if i tried to reconnect a few minutes later it wouldnt for 50 minutes. I was hoping they were working on fixing this and the geinerbread gps issues but by the sounds of it that is not the case at the moment. Without a fully functional gps amongst other things this rom is certainly far from ready.

So I notice y'all keep mentioning this MIUI ROM. Is it a good one, or merely adequate? How does it differ from CM?

Instead of us writing an essay comparing and contrasting the two roms why dont you backup your existing one and install. I think its much better but its not complete. I dont have the link im on my phone you can search for it.

I was simply looking for a quick off-the-top-of-your-head comparison. I'll look elsewhere.

What the hell is this?
It's my build(s) of Cyanogenmod 7.2 Release Candidate 1, ClockWorkMod Recovery 5.0.2.8, and my custom Kernel.

How do I use it?

  1. First make sure you do a nandroid backup.
  2. Flash my CWM Recovery and Kernel package, then go to Advanced->Reboot recovery..
  3. Install the latest version of my Cyanogenmod 7.2 ROM.
  4. (This step is only for non-MetroPCS users) Install the Cricket Wireless or nTelos APN configuration for your data carrier (MetroPCS users can safely skip this step).
  5. Install the latest gapps (no longer necessary to mount system beforehand) zip.
  6. (OPTIONAL) Install the overclocked kernel.
  7. Select Reboot system now and wait at least 10 minutes for the market updates to take effect (connect to wifi first if data connection isn't working)(first boot might take a minute).

What works?
Wifi
Bluetooth
Data
Texting
Cell Service
USB
Camera (video)
Data/MMS (in 90% of cases)


What doeswn't work?
Camera (still pictures)
Data/MMS (in 10% of cases)

Do you provide source code?
Yes. You can check my GitHub here.

What did you change recently?
You can always see my latest changes in my commit log here.

Did anybody help you?
Of course. Shabbypenguin was there for me in the beginning. Unforgiven512 provided me a basic device profile to go off of. SuigintouLain provided the original CWM I used to flash my kernel and CWM. hroark13 helped me indirectly by providing his Galaxy Prevail device profile which helped me learn quite a bit, and directly by providing his RIL, Battery Server, and USB Controller code, and nudging me in the right direction for fixing data. Angablade has helped me with many ideas, and eventually we'll be collaborating on the kernel. And last but not least, pressy4pie for helping me test and being a good little monkey.

Great job, can I buy you a beer?


Can I PM you?
You can, but you'll get a faster response if you join us on IRC. (irc.irondust.net/#admire)

Wait, I want to go back to stock, but your recovery won't let me!?
Don't panic, just install SuigintouLain's original CWM and restore from your nandroid backup you made earlier. (You DID make one, didn't you?)
HERPEDY DURPEDY YOU CAN INSTALL THIS USING CWM HERPDERP

Me want eye candy!
Easy, it's attached below.​

The differences between the MIUI ROM and CM are:
MIUI has a working camera.
MIUI has a different lockscreen.
It is possible to get MMS working*
MIUI has a diffferent UI.
Otherwise they're pretty much the same in terms of function.

*Because it can work on CM as well. But it is far easier with MIUI.

Thanks. Been digging around for some reason to try it out; glad I didn't, though, because I'm having some fun with CM now that I've found a temporary workaround for being unable to install from Google Play...
