DL link and Thoughts on Miui 4.1 for the HTC Evo 4g LTE - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Miui 4.1 has been released for our device and has a currently stable (minus the initial F/C on JB roms, already widely known)
Miui is a wonderful rom that attempts to be as original as possible, and as customizable as possible, The dialer, music app, gallery app, messaging app, settings, Root Access Manager, virus scanner, firewall, Settings, ringtones, notifications, status bar, launcher, lockscreen, icons, Rounded screen, wallpapers, themes, weather app, notes app, (blah blah blah, much more) are all SPECIFIC to the Miui rom, and are different, and feel original, and completely separate from the plain roms we normally see (Sense, ICS, JB, PA <--->.>) Which all use the same launchers, with slight modifications. The Miui rom feels unique to all others, and really made me want something new, and it delivered, by giving me EVERYTHING new.

Please before downloading, read what I posted on the forum, otherwise, you will have a terrible first impression of this rom.

-Copied Post- -I am the original owner of this post, giving me right to copy information from one forum to another-
I want to post this in order to explain to people some problems/issues with this rom. I was very excited to receive it on my phone however there were issues on the latest version that I must point out for people looking to download this, and I hope this is seen by those of you who are also experiencing this issue which you no doubt are if you are using the latest (or any in the month of November) version.
ALL of the November versions of this rom have a flaw so before you continue reading, the last working version of miui is the 10/26/2012.3 version, any versions after this version have the flaw that you will be made aware of before you view this message.
The latest 11/26/2012 version of this rom has the following errors that will complicate REGULAR phone use.
-Browser: The Miui Browser on this rom will F/C (force close) upon touch after the initial bookmarks screen.
-to elaborate further, If you go to any website in the browser, and then attempt to touch any part of the website, the browser will F/C.
-Browser Based Loading Apps: Any app that attempts to open a website to have you view information from it will also F/C upon touch.
-Permissions Manager: The part of the permissions manager that asks for root access is broken, and will cause permissions manager to constantly F/C.
-This breaks the Miui toolbox app and the themes app, they will not function on the latest version of this rom.
-The hardware menu button is not available in the latest version of miui, unable to change wallpaper without using themes application.
Tests implemented to make sure this was not user error: (attempted each separately)
-Kernel replacement
-Re-installation
-Older Miui version Kernal Replacement
-Dev. Options editing
-Latest Gapps Update.
-Different, and Altered TWRP versions
-Different formatting settings inside of TWRP
Regular phone usage issues:
-This will prevent you from using ANY market available android browser on the phone, and the Miui browser.
-This will prevent you from using the Miui toolbox, and most miui themes.
-This will prevent you from using a large number of apps that require internet access.
-This will prevent you from using any available Root Access Required Application.
-This will prevent you from changing your wallpaper, or accessing the menu in any application.
The Previous Versions of this rom (uploaded in November) have the following issues that will complicate REGULAR phone usage.
-The browser will F/C upon receiving touch input from the user on a normal website.
-Any application requiring direct website access will F/C upon receiving touch input from the user.
-There are no Permission Manager issues with the previous November releases of this rom.
-No way to toggle menu button, no way to access menu
Tests implemented to make sure this was not user error: (attempted each separately)

-Older Miui version Kernal Replacement

-Different, and Altered TWRP versions
-Different formatting settings inside of TWRP
Regular phone usage issues:
-No way to access the internet via ANY market available browser, or the Miui Browser.
-A large number of apps that require internet usage will no longer work on this device.
-This will prevent you from changing your wallpaper, or accessing the menu in any application.
Latest working version of Miui: 10/26/2012.3
-.3 must be specified, as the versions released before .3 have a random constant soft-reboot issue at start of OS. (you generally will not make it to set up email before this begins)
-the .3 version of the 10/26/2012 rom has none of the previously listed issues in this post.
-However I must specify, that although I have not done testing to fix this issue, GPS does not seem to be working on this version of the rom.
I want to apologize to the OP, and or Dev. if this came off as Insulting, or offensive in any way. I know that making this must be difficult and I in no way mean to offend. I absolutely love this rom in every way, As I always will and have been a fan of MiUi. The thought of it being close to working on my device is incredible, and I do want to thank you very much for bringing this opportunity to me.
That being said, Changing the OP to include a (I must assume) untested (since the start of November) version of this rom is disappointing. I have gone through and proved, atleast to myself, That this is not user error, if you have any information proving otherwise, or any information at all on how to fix the latest version of your rom I would greatly appreciate it. I want to inform you that this post is an attempt to support your rom, while there may be a section of these forums to post errors that are found, the unknowing people who visit this forum will very likely download the latest version of this rom, claim it unusable, and not check for a working version. The next step is a rumor is spread, keeping people from attempting the rom, and the last step is the motivation deprivation caused will cease development of this rom, which I sincerely do not wish to see happen, as based soley on the 10.26.2012 rom I have become a fan of this project.
Please continue the great work you have done to provide Miui to the Htc Evo 4g Lte or HTC Jewel users of this world. And I hope to hear back from you promptly

Wrote down as I was going, if anyone would like me to test something for them that isn't in the list of 55 things I tested feel free to ask. I don't mind as I am actively trying to find issues with this rom as there seems to be some back and fourth conversation over it. Im running out of things to think to test, so any ideas im open to try.

Yeah, Check out the Start of the Link
The link has spaces to prevent it from being a link, put it back together and copy into url for the Forum location of this rom.
This entire, Long, thought-out, time consuming post relied on you being able to view that link, without that ability, I would not be able to post this, long, thought-out, and time-consuming post, that contained valuable information to obtain Miui on your Htc Evo 4g Lte, and to help the regular development of this rom continue, while giving a spark back to the evo that while many roms may have been tested, all felt the same, which was a little bit of a let down for you, as it was to me.
I want to quickly state that I mean no offence to the developers of all other roms for the htc evo 4g lte as I have tried them all and have some that I love, and some that I have mixed feelings for. I am simply putting this information out there so this rom also has the ability to develop as well as yours has, as I am sure even you can admit, that the Miui rom is a rom that is greatly desired for this phone. All of your roms had their different features, different mods, different mod packages, updaters, even for one, it had its own app installer, and Battery usage customization to improve battery life (venom). I am simply posting this for those out there, who have tried every rom out there, and still seek something to fall in love with.
Thank you very much for viewing this post, and I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Wow..

Thanks for the write up. I do miss MIUI and development has been excruciatingly slow, tho I know hard work is being put in.
I won't give up stable, fully functional roms for it right now, but I do hope it progresses into a daily before this phone becomes to outdated. I have my doubts because I hear rumblings of how difficult it is to bring MIUI to some of these phones these days, which is unfortunate.
Cheers

Yeah, what do you want me to say. There hasn't been a stable, daily driver miui.us build for the Evo LTE, yet. I have flashed just about all of them. Posted multiple logcats. If i remember right there were a couple of us who were getting a LOS on the October builds.

http://goo.im/devs/miui/jewel/MIUI.us_jewel_v4.1_2.10.19_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed_0xD34D.zip
this is a good build, i have been running it since it dropped, with no major issues.

Thank you for viewing my post.

I want to thank you for viewing my post, and especially for replying to it quickly. I would like to state that everything I have found other than gps (which is currently untested) and the initial (only at start) F/C that the 10/26/2012.3 version of this rom is currently fully operational, and I am using it as a daily as I to love Miui and was excited to try miui 4.1. The only Miui feature that, that specific version, of the rom is currently lacking, is the Miui Camera. Otherwise, the 10.26.2012.3 release of this rom is fully functional and to the extent of my knowledge, usable as a daily driver, as long as you are ok with the initial F/C at boot that most JB roms have been experiencing.
To download this specific version of the rom, you may find the exact download link to the 10.26.2012.3 release of it here
http:// goo .im /devs/miui/jewel
just take away the spaces. I am of course in no way attempting to force you to try the rom, this is entirely your decision of course. Simply stating that this release of the rom, to my knowledge, is stable, and working for me currently as a daily driver. I will update the OP with information in regards to GPS soon.

Thank you for viewing my post.

the 2.10.19 build of this rom may be currently functional, I however am one to be closer to the latest stable and functional update, which is the 10.26.2012.3 release of the rom, to my knowledge, I do not see anything wrong with this version of the rom, and the link to all downloads for this rom have been posted.
Thank you for viewing my post, and replying promptly. I did not get far enough to thoroughly test the 10.19 version of the rom, as while backtracking the 10.26 version was the one that worked correctly for me, and I have not gone backwards from there, the download link for the 10.26 version of this rom has been posted, and if you would like to see if any improvements were made since that version be my guest.
If you do so, please let me know of any changes you may notice from 10.19 to 10.26.
Thank you, and have a wonderful day.

Thank you for replying to my post.

I would like to thank you for replying to my post, and I would like to state that I am currently using the 2.10.26.3 release of the originally posted rom as a daily driver, and have found no real issues with it at this time. If you have any issues that I may not have noticed I would definitely like to hear them. I haven't had anything not work for me yet, other than the general JB download speed slowdown, that is currently experienced on every rom currently supporting JB, and GPS detecting my location slower than sense (which can also be said about every other JB rom)
As of right now I am happy with the ROM and thought that I had conveyed that the rom was functional in my OP. Any information related to errors you have noticed or heard of that I may be able to test and attempt fixing personally I would greatly appreciate.
Thank you very much for the edit on your post. It was much more informative than "yeah"

Important Information Removal From Miui.us Site.
I would like to inform you that my original post on the Miui.us rom's forum has been removed. I attempted in this post to convey that posting a non working version of the rom as the first clickable download link was not the right action to get people to try this rom if they wanted to and receive a good experience.
To be clear, and to re-state.
The 2.10.26.3 version of this rom from what I can see, has no errors other than ones that have already been noted as JB errors for this device. such as the initial F/C that goes away after clicking on it twice and generally does not pop back up. Slower GPS point locating which is known to be a JB error for this device, it will still locate you, just not as quickly. and a Slower overall download speed, which can also be tied to JB for this device.
As far as the rom goes, excluding the normal JB errors, the 2.10.26.3 version of this rom, from what I can tell, is fully functional, and the download link is listed in OP.
any of the November releases or 2.11.anything currently have errors that jeopardize regular phone usage. Such as a non functional browser, and a non functional Root Access Manager (Which is like SuperSU and Super user, but MiUi specific, also not the exact name)
I am simply making sure that this information is conveyed, as this IMHO is the latest, daily, usable, stable, functional, version of this rom.
Thank you again, and I apologize for having to make my point, so many times.

Fyi, you can open the permissions manager and manually give apps root access. It's just the initial request for root that will break it. It's in the tools folder in the launcher. As well, someone posted instructions for remapping the menu key on both the miui.us thread and we figured it out on the other miui thread on here.

Thank you for replying to my post. Did you happen to fix the browser F/C's, With every browser? cause im a tad more interested in that. For root, I also looked at doing something like that, but I don't know why I would when the 2.10.26.3 release already had that working.. im unsure what was so necessary that they had to break their root app. Im unsure about the menu key, but if its already in settings Im fairly certain there was no option to remap to menu, cause I tried that. if its in the toolbox however, it wasn't working cause my root app wasn't working (of course I could have constantly re-installed the rom, and then manually gave root permissions to the toolbox app (which is a downgrade from normal android) After re-assigning the recent apps to menu, but that is too much of a hassle to go through on a freaking smart phone , and I sure as hell don't want to mess with something that broken to get it to work, when the 2.10.26.3 version didn't have this issue. If it wasn't in the toolbox and I had to manually go in and edit something to get the menu remapped, then again I must state, why not just go with the 2.10.26.3 version of the rom. I am totally at a loss here, what was so broken in 2.10.26.3 that required breaking the working rom to fix? I have everything working fine on my rom without having to do anything to get it there. Do I need to make another post to see what people were having a problem with? if I do please inform me promptly. The ability to browse the internet via a browser, is one of the main reasons people first get a smart phone. If that's broken, What did I get a smartphone to do? play some games? there are other things for that, that are portable and have better games. I know that the Miui.us rom that I want, isn't a broken rom that was worse than its previous release a month ago.
Please if you could be so kind as to tell me what you thought was wrong with the 2.10.26.3 release I would very much like to hear it. Im not being sarcastic, I seriously want to know. Why break what isn't broken to fix it?
I stand by my original point made in the OP, the 2.10.26.3 release wasn't broken, so don't download a broken release. If you are looking to get this wrong, don't settle for less than perfect, by downloading a rom that is made for you to fix it, when the dev could have fixed it himself.
Thank you very much, and I hope you have a wonderful day.

The latest stable version of this rom is the 10.26.2012.3 release of the rom, the version listed on the OP (11/26/2012 release) has many issues that will greatly complicate regular phone usage, and cannot be accepted as a stable release, nor a daily driver. To explain shortly...
Broken versions of this rom: (any in November are not currently working correctly)
-No Browser from the market, or the Default will work.
-Root access is broken, Cannot grant root access to any app, even system apps.
-No menu, no way to toggle menu.
-incorrect theming
-constant Permissions manager F/C
---
the 2.10.26.3 release of this rom has working browser, and working root access, already set menu button, working themes and no F/C's other than the initial one at first boot.
I would like to state again, the 2.10.26.3 release of this rom is stable, and fully functional to my knowledge. Gps, remains untested for now, I will update this thread with information relating to its functionality at a later date, the direct download link for this rom is

Very interesting as I was about to post something about the lens edition of the lens Miui before checking on my OP. Thank you for bringing that up as I am just about to uninstall the lens version of this rom, and re-install the miui.us 2.10.26.3 version of the rom in the OP. The Lens rom is gaining progress fast, and I would urge everyone to check it out, but it is currently much less stable than the version of Miui.us listed in the OP, even with its latest 2.11.30 update, so if you are looking for a daily driver, then the one I am looking it is the one currently listed in OP, HOWEVER, I will be switching back to the Lens Miui rom when they get the thing a bit more stable because I honestly trust the developer to do so in a short amount of time.
I will be updating my OP shortly.

I apologize.
I was looking at my OP and I realized it was a tad too long to continue to add a long definition of the current LENS Miui Release. I will be posting anew.

[RELEASE] Blackhole 0.6 Custom Rom Beta 11/9 update *Extra Apps Link*

This is my first Custom Rom guys, so all feedback is appreciated, even if you think it sucks. which you might....
PRESENTING:
BLACKHOLE CUSTOM ROM
*Disclaimer*
I am not responsible for any damage you do to your phone, any issues you have with this ROM, or anything in general. This is provided as is and I will do my best to support this, but make no promises. This rom SHOULD WORK on any kernel or flashed over any other custom rom, or even stock, but has not been tested on all. If you flash this without wiping data all of your downloaded apps will still be on the phone, this will only remove the stock apps. If you flash any themes without these enhancements through clockworkmod recovery you will most likely remove the 15 second backlight and power button options, however metamorph themes may or may not remove these enhancements.
*End of disclaimer*
This is a project of mine because even the cleanest custom rom was never clean enough for me. I want my device to be fully customized and this was the best way I saw to do it, so I wanted to share.
This rom has almost nothing built into it. the easiest way to tell you what I removed is actually to tell you what is left...
Remaining apps:
Camera
Gmail
Market
Phone
Settings
Superuser
Task Manager
Voice Search
Swype
LauncherPro
Features:
15 Second softkey backlight
Reboot, Recovery, and Download options in the power button menu
Ultralite rom built for ultimate customization
Thats it. Once you install this as a barebones custom rom, I make it easy to install the apps that you want. I do this so that people like me can have only what they want. All you have to do is create a folder called "apps" (case sensitive) on your sdcard and copy all the .apk files you want installed as System apps into it. Then just unzip the attached folder anywhere, and run the <InstallApps.bat> file inside it.
Due to Facebook, Myspace and Twitter Sync requiring too much extra programs to run properly I will not be supporting it for the current versions of Blackhole. Once our great Devs figure out how to get AOSP running on this phone then you will be able to sync them all with their own downloaded apps, until then, it will not be a feature of this ROM. Sorry if this puts anyone off, but the point of this rom is space, speed, and battery life. SNS is just too bulky to be included.
You can get the app files from other custom roms, by unzipping them and looking in the /system/app directory or just around on the board.
Please let me know if you have any questions, or chat me up in IRC channel #samsung-fascinate on freenode.
If you need any app suggestions to replace the ones missing from this ROM please post and I will reply as soon as I can.
Changelog:
v0.3 - Standard download is Stock Theme, and the Blackmod Enhanced theme is a seperate clockwork zip. I also removed a few extra background apps.
v0.4 - Removed A LOT of background apps, including all DRM apps, and the Media Sync(MTP) mode (because, lets face it, no one who uses a custom rom is going to sync DRM tracks from windows media player)
Do not turn on Google Location Services, it will force close. This doesn't affect your GPS accuracy or lock time.
Removed accessibility aps (Kickback, Talkback, Soundback) they are all available in the market.
v0.4.1 - Added default MMS app back to fix issues with MMS not being delivered.
v0.5 - Removed several more background apps.
v0.6 - Removed even more background apps. My phone is still running fine but please let me know if you have issues. I have added the TouchWizCalendarProvider.apk into my Extra Apps link because it is required to reinstall the calendar properly.
This is still very much a Beta Rom, you may have force close issues, and if you try to access something that has been removed, you WILL get a force close. If there is something removed that you wish was still there i'm sorry, i'm working really hard to get this ready as a base for my Rom Manager Build-Your-Own-Rom idea, and that means removing everything possible. I will be glad to provide app names if something you want isn't working. please reply to this thread with any issues you have and I will try my best to work them out.

I take no credit for these, I simply put them all together in an easy to access space, for people not quite savvy enough to pull them from a system dump themselves. The AOSP apps and Stock Deodexed Apps can be installed using the installer method above, the custom apps need to be installed through Clockwork Mod Recovery just like the ROM. If i'm missing something you want added let me know and I will add it to the extra apps link if I can find it.
Thanks:
Jt1134 for script help and the Super Clean rom series that inspired me
Deodexed for the custom boot and shutdown animations
Nintendo and Square-Enix for the boot and shutdown audio
tigers4life and utermensh for their work on the extra power button options
wasupwithuman for the extended softkey backlight mod
stanrc for the BlackmodF metamorph theme
Frost for his help with integrating the mods into the theme
DlongB13 for initial testing
PhoenixPath for frequent testing, troubleshooting, and feedback.
and everyone else who helped me along the way

Does it still have the built in messaging app?
Nice job! However, may I suggest a different name for this ROM? When I see Barebones 0.2 I thought it would be an update to the existing ROM that birdman made, this is pretty different.
it does not. the rom is not meant to be used as is, but to be customized by each person who downloads it. you can download chomp sms or handcent sms from the market, or get the stock messaging app from frostman's deodexed rom or the aosp messaging app from JT's Super Clean .04 rom and install it using the instructions in the first post.

oh yeah, that's what he named his TEST20 kernel isn't it. hmm. any suggestions anyone?
I suggest something like "skeleton" or "minimalist" or just "simple ROM". I like the sound of "Simple Rom" myself.
Clarification
I really like the idea you have. The only suggestion I would make is, for those not savvy enough to dig up system dumps, etc to find the needed .apks, maybe adding a folder called "Apks" to the rom (in which you would find all the stock removed apks), so you just copy/paste into the "sdcard" folder you create. Again, kudos to your idea of a 'build-your-own-rom' rom you have here.

Thank you, I appreciate that. And we are actually somewhat on the same page. this is the first dev work i've ever done and i'm learning as I go. my goal is to have this rom in Rom Manager, with custom download options like some roms have on other phones. for example you pick the Blackhole Rom, then select your version, and then it asks you which launcher you want, then which messaging app, then which contacts app, etc. that way you can choose from a list when you download it, or choose "no thanks" and get a different one yourself.
Not a fan of the theme but thanks!
I will release a stock theme update tomorrow.

All of that will be available soon after I get listed on Rom manager. it's much easier that way than trying to post apk files on this topic. If you can't wait that long JT has the stock mms app already in rom manager and the mesmerize contacts app is in a topic on the forums here. it's the same as stock except a few new features.
Sorry, probably a dumb question, but am I correct in assuming that because there's no mention of TouchWiz, you've replaced it with LP?

yes that's correct. A little while after it's up on Rom manager I'll set it up to let you choose between LauncherPro, ADW, and Touchwiz. For starters.
I read over on other GalaxyS phones about DRM services that run in the background that take a decent toll on battery life.. Have you looked into getting them removed to further clean the system up and improve on this cleanliness?

I will certainly try it out. i've been slowly removing an app or 2 every couple of hours to see if it crashes my phone, then if all is good i'll release an update tomorrow. I'll check those out this evening.

[RELEASE]Blackhole 3.0 now available. DL09. www.androiddoes.net/sonofskywalker3

Updated changelog available at http://www.androiddoes.net/sonofskywalker3
Update:
Version 1.1 changelog:
Removed lockscreen and bootanimation as a default part of the ROM and added it into options. If you have a bootanimation you would like to be featured in the Blackhole Build Your Own ROM series please let me know.
Added a modification section where you can choose to change which app you are using, or to install additional addons. this will not wipe system, so you can choose only what you want. be aware that if you change apps with different filenames (for example choose ADW under modifications when you had launcherpro before) it will keep both, but if you choose on that's the same file name (for example the mesmerize contacts instead of stock) it will overwrite and you'll only have the one. I hope I have explained this well. I will be updated my scripts over the next few days to delete any other options that are installed so that there won't be any redundancy.
Version 1.2 changelog:
Added back Settingsprovider.apk to fix issue with FC when choosing Airplane Mode
Fixed Options:
Fixed script for Puzzle Lock, actually works now.
Fixed file name for POP/Exchange Email so it will download right
Replaced Stock Desk Clock with Mesmerize Desk Clock so voice search uses Google instead of Bing
New Options:
Added Haters Gonna Hate Bootanimation (no sound, but pretty funny)
Added Hiddenmenu.apk (if you don't know what it is, don't bother checking it)
Added SNS(Facebook Sync). Requires TouchWiz Launcher and Calendar, and one of the Contacts options.
Version 1.3 changelog:
Added Widgetpicker to base rom, faster interface and groups multiple widgets from the same program.
Removed MMS from base rom and added as a customization category.
Modified Build.Prop to allow OTA Update notifications
Version 1.4 changelog:
Added globalsearch.apk to allow searching of data on the device (Please let me know if this still doesn't work)
Added PhoenixPath's GPS fix (again, please let me know if this doesn't help.)

Notes: I will no longer be listing voodoo kernels with blackhole, because with the latest kernel updates by jt and geeknik I don't see them being as necessary as they were before, and for people who use ROM manager, but don't frequent forums like xda and modadroid.com they may not know switching from a voodoo to nonvoodoo kernel can cause issues. You can still download voodoo kernels from JT's section of ROM manager, or on XDA or modadroid.com

haha. well i did stop for dinner. But seriously things will slow down now that i've lept my first hurdle. next step is to find a better hosting solution than dropbox.
the only changes are that I added back lcdtest.apk because without it the screen won't auto shutoff, and the networklocation.apk because it is necessary for gps. also i removed launcherpro since now that it's on ROM Manager you can choose which launcher you want.
I havent had any issues with the lcd not shuting off on .6. Also I dont care about the gps, so I will stick with the .6 version for now.
quick question, do we have to wipe if were coming from 0.5 to 1.0?
Blackmod enhanced seems to be broken. I get a corrupted zip error when downloading.
But the the S in the notification dropdown is cool!
Awesome job.
Loving it.
Need another option or two though. Gallery (Stock or AOSP), Email.apk...(Oh! Evolution font. Can't live without it...)
Also, blackmod download seems to be corrupted. (fixed... go to bed, dammit!)
Car Home is installing instead of ROM manager when ROM Manager is selected... tried it twice. Links might be fubar'd. No ROM Manager apk in /system/apps.
Yaup. Watched the install... It installs mesmerize_carhome.
Loving it so far. Keep it up! (and get some actual work done too )
I'm about to hit the install button. One quick question. I'm coming from the stock Tom running voodoo v2... currently disabled... should I remove it, and do I have to wipe data and cache?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
hmmf i might try this if it actually has gallery and contacts now?
ok so I installed this rom from rom manager and now I can't boot into recovery through the rom manager, nor can I install another rom. anybody got any ideas
Edit, fixed it, wasn't under su
I'm about to give this a try, very excited about freeing up memory and extending the battery life. One question: is it possible to make vcast video work this? I'm one of the weirdos that pays $10/month (for the nfl and the office). I've had trouble with just about every custom rom I've tried.

I just checked this out on Rom Manager and saw how it works (selecting all of the custom elements) and I think it's a fantastic idea, especially if more options are continually added.

Noticed the fc as well. No big, everything still seems to work. As for the gallery, just grab the stock gallery or gallery3d.apk from any of the other roms out there. (download, extract, copy gallery apk file to /system/apps and reboot)

A few items brought up overnight. Due to unforseen demand I maxed out my dropbox daily transfer limit, so i've had to upgrade to their paid service. This costs me $9.99 per month, so I've decided to add a donate link to my sig to try to offset this a little. Please feel free to use this rom or anything I ever do without donating, I'm not trying to make money off of developing, just trying to cover my costs associated with it.
The Gallery should be available in addons now, and i'll be working on vcast video today. I have fixed the issues with the blackmod enhanced theme, mesmerize contacts, and Rom manager and mesmerize car dock options being reversed.

Excellent. I should really start looking into getting my domain back up and running. I would love to host some of these projects... You guys shouldn't have to pay to distribute your work. That's just lame...
Maybe you could re-add the calendarprovider.apk back into your roms. It appears this is needed for calendar apps to sync with google calendar. Keep up the excellent work.

The touchwizcalendarprovider.apk is included with the TouchWiz Calendar option I've just added to ROM Manager addons. If you want to have the file available by itself for use with other calendar programs i'll be glad to add that as well.
I think having the provider.apk by itself would be a good option for those of us who use 3rd party calendars. Thanks.

I have added a calendars section where you can choose between touchwiz calendar (with the app and provider) or 3'rd party support (with just the provider). let me know if this works for you with a third party calendar app please.

I have added a vcast video option to the addons in ROM Manager. try downloading it. it worked for me up to the point where you have to subscribe, and since I don't i couldn't proceed. let me know if it works or not please and I will try to fix it if it doesn't. (you may need to also download the video player from addons, not sure)
Also for those wondering: the usb settings gave you the option of choosing between USB Mass Storage mode and Music Sync Mode. I left the Music Sync Mode out because I figured no one running a custom rom would use it. if i'm wrong it's real easy to add the package as an extra. let me know if any of you want it.

Two known problems are battery drain (not too much, but it exists) and com.android.phone process crashing.
The latter is solvable if you use GSM (I can't tell is it working on CDMA networks as I can't test it, there is none in Croatia). All you have to do is:
Enable Airplane mode.
Head to notification widget settings.
Enable the mobile data toggle.
Open the notification pulldown and long tap the mobile data toggle.
Mobile network options menu appears.
Repeat choosing mobile network type until you see that it shows as “GSM/WCDMA” in the menu, not in the selector that opens (selector items are named wrong).
Once it's set to GSM/WCDMA, disable Airplane mode.
You will get one FC, but that's it. After that, the phone will properly register on your GSM network. No issues after reboots as well.

HEY GUYS , some great news for you all
DEFY has got complete HWA ( or HUI ) working on this locked kernel
everything including Chrome , flash player is working , it is as fast as any other official ICS ROM ( buttery smooth )
if you guys can compile all those changes into ur rom , it would be great
nadlaback ( milestone 1 developer ) made this achievement of running PVR SGX 1.8 ( stack loader ) on the locked kernel
also to mention : FULL HWA is working on both FROYO and GB KENELS ( so it should not be a great problem for you guys )
is it stable enough for daily use?

It changes with every new build, because development is proceeding rapidly. Some builds are pretty stable except for specific features being broken (especially camera-related stuff); others have more features enabled but are less stable; the newest build as of today has some changes that broke a lot of things, but the cause is known and a fix is in the works. Check the two threads I linked earlier for updates on new builds and specific information on each one.

very much so
i have been using these roms since late february, they are awesome
if you get the 7/14 build, the only thing that doesnt work is the camcorder and panorama
chrome works, the theme engine is working
these roms are awesome
I just flashed everything yesterday, and I've had no problems so far (besides with the camera, of course). Seems very stable and works very well; animations are smooth and no lag. Once camera is fixed, this will be truly amazing.
I also installed Google Now and I must say, it is amazing! Only thing not working is the voice search unfortunately... but you can still use it by manually typing queries!
I flashed cm9 and its worked great only bug I have seen is camcorder
Sent from my DROID2 Global using xda app-developers app
I flashed the latest ROM onto my Droid 2 Global 3 days ago, and the first thing i noticed is that it's a battery destroyer, i have an extended battery that used to last me for a day and a half with cm7, now it just lasts 10 hours on normal use (i play 40 minutes a day at most), and last night i charged the battery to 100% and this morning it was on 45% doing absolutely nothing at all, not a single call or sms, so either the screen is turning on by itself, the battery is not reporting the correct charge or this ROM is a powerhungry beast.
anyone else reporting this issues?
That rom is outdated. Try this one instead: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/28082-d2d2gdx-cm9-build-thread/

LiquidSmooth v3.0 Beta

I'm running LiquidSmooth v3.0 Beta (LS-KK-v3.0-2014-02-13-dlx) on my Verizon DNA and I'm pretty happy with it. Big thanks to deadman96385, santod040, and anyone else who contributed to this project!
This is the first custom ROM I've run as a "daily driver" on my DNA after ~16 months on the stock ROM, so most of my impressions are in comparison with the most recent stock HTC software. I briefly tried CyanFox but switched back to stock. I also tried the "HTC One *STOCK* ROM Port" (DLX_WL_K442_SENSE55_MR_4.19.401.8) but couldn't get it to boot; actually flashing it messed up my recovery as well. I suspect maybe my download was corrupted since other people reported success with that ROM.
Back to LiquidSmooth:
- Perceived performance is generally pretty solid. It's mostly very smooth, living up to its name.
- I do get the occasional app crash (FC); haven't noticed a pattern yet. It's not frequent enough to bother me much.
- A few times I have had the phone become unresponsive when opening the recent apps view or when trying to unlock from the lock screen. But this hasn't happened in a few days. Could be the freezing was related to one of the features I tried and later disabled (see below), or just due to the ROM "settling in" (populating caches, etc.)
- Love KitKat and the add-on features:
- I'm using the "pie control" for quick access to apps, quick screen off, menu access, etc.
- I tried HALO and couldn't really figure it out / didn't find it useful.
- I like the idea of Active Display but it didn't work that well in combination with the way I use the lock screen, so I turned it off and use the lock screen's built-in active display features instead.
- I'm using the default Google Now launcher for the moment. I like the easy access to voice search and google now. Don't like that it doesn't have multi-touch for dragging icons between home screens.
I think the battery is draining faster than with the stock ROM, though it's hard to say because I've also been using the phone a lot more actively while I get it set up and configured the way I want. It may be that the active display feature of the lockscreen is using more power?
People in the development forum mention an over-the-air (OTA) update mechanism; I haven't been able to find that yet.
There's a new version posted called 03-05-14; I haven't tried that version yet.
Anyway, I'm quite happy with this ROM and imagine I'll stick with it for a while. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, fast, stable ROM, and in particular to anyone freshly rooted and looking for a solid ROM to try out KitKat and get a lot of great new features.
(note—maybe it would have made more sense to put this directly in the existing LiquidSmooth development thread, but I don't have permission to post there. And I'm not developing the ROM, just using it.)
Thanks again! Great ROM.
How much did they pay you? LOL
I tried it as well as all of the other KK AOSP ROMS. I really like AOSP.
I was on stock until viperDNA 2.0 came out, then I decided to S=OFF/ROOT/etc... and plugged Viperware in. It was awesome. Not an issue ever. So I wanted to give 3.0 a try, after trying every ROM out there (actually it kinda became like crack to me LOL).
So far after several days, it's 5x5, not an issue at all. On my phone, only the Viperware works as advertised.
That's not to say that Viperware doesn't have its issues, but I just haven't seen any yet. As I said I really like AOSP, but because Viperware uses Aroma installer, I can delete almost everything - which gives it a kind of AOSPishy look/feel.
My sig hits it; these developers (ALL of them) are amazing and do all of this for US on their own time for FREE. If I were a kagillionaire, I'd employ you ALL.
Hah! Thanks Yehuda. I started this thread because I wish there were more ROM reviews here on xda, since I don't really have time to try out every ROM. I appreciate your review of ViperDNA; maybe I'll try that next.
Update on LiquidSmooth: after a week or so I found that it wasn't as clean as I originally thought and went back to (rooted) stock for a while.

MoKee 10 fixes battery drain issue on clover WiFI-only models

PSA for @Wizballs and any other miPad 4 owners of the WiFI-only model...
Most of us have probably been looking for a ROM that is actively and officially developed that doesn't have the bug where it looks for the non-existing SIM card and drains the battery during standby. I'm happy to report that MoKee appears to use a different base than most ROMS for clover that are based on LineageOS, and MoKee 10 for clover seems to work really well. I left my device in Airplane mode for 7 hours, and the battery percentage was exactly the same as I left it. Finally!

A few other observations and first impressions:
I hate the tacky cartoonish boot animation, but the com.jrummy.apps.boot.animations app works fine to change it after rooting with Magisk.
For the initial setup screen the default option is Chinese, but just scroll down until you see your language, it appears to support all the usual ones.
I didn't install GApps, but somehow it still has the official Gboard keyboard with swipe enabled out of the box.
For some reason on my first install it didn't have a camera app. Then I wiped it and reflashed it and now it has a camera (org.mokee.snap). I honestly don't understand how it could be different from one flash to another, but at any rate it appears to be quite a nice camera with lots of configurable options and a working panoramic mode, which is rare in AOSP based ROMs.
The default gallery app is also good, SimpleMobileTools Simple Gallery Pro, which is my preferred open source gallery app. Some ROMs preinstall Simple Gallery, but it's not the pro version and it's much more limited, and it conflicts with the Pro version when you try to install it over top of it. MoKee does it right from the start.
Lots of configurability in the settings, including an option to control the cursor with the volume keys and on the bottom bar, which I find extremely useful. Only missing option is putting the date on the status bar next to the clock.
Working notification LED, unlike ArrowOS.
So this has been a great find. I'll report back if I find anything else. Thanks a lot to the devs if any see this thread.
Nice find and PSA
I just had a quick read about Mokee, and it appears to be a legit rom.
- From what I've read, playstore is installable
- States open source, get a tick for that
- Any chance you've run a quick virus/malware scan?
- I can see a few 'experimental' builds for 11.0, I'll keep an eye on that progress..
Cheers

Hi there, no I haven't run any malware scans, I don't have much faith in the antivirus/anti-malware sort of programs due to the false positives and FUD that they seem to depend on. I can give it a shot though if you know of any trustworthy ones.
Yes, the Play Store should be installable, they have normal Gapps packages that they recommend at the downloads page. I prefer to run with MicroG instead and I use the Aurora store. A small disadvantage is that MoKee doesn't support signature spoofing out of the box (needed for MicroG), but with Magisk and NanoDroid I got it working.
I also saw the 11.0 builds, maybe we should try to post over on their forum to let them know that there are some very interested and determined clover owners still out there.

The only scanner I really use is ESET for windows, and new android roms and then uninstall after scanning. I've never got a false positive from it.
But I'm downloading Mokee now to give it a try...
So far so good. I'll leave it sit now for 24 hours and report back on standby battery use. And yes I think posting a thanks in their forums is a good idea. And will just be a thanks as there are no real issues to report! Actually is a very well finished and working ROM.
Couple or more points:
- Mokee recommended gapps (opengapps) just wouldn't install - error code 64
- Nikgapps installed and ran perfectly fine however. lol.
- USB debugging turned on by default, some users like me will want to turn this off
- Does appear to be a lineageos base, but only a guess
- Can actually turn off double tap to wake. Arrow stayed on regardless of setting. Wonder if this will help standby battery marginally? I have flip case that turns screen on, works with this rom
- ESET scan 100% clean
- Disabled a few of useless apps (like I do with every ROM, without root) using:
adb shell
pm uninstall -k --user 0 package.name
- Nutflix not available directly from Playstore. Not a problem, install using SAI
- Encryption turned on by default (great!)
- Lately I'm finding that built in launchers are giving me the best stability / performance in any ROMS . Always used nova in the past.
- Turned off that status bar upload/download speed doobie. Personal preference.
- Appears to have OTA updater, will give a spin next update
Overall, awesome so far
Good find @sb56637
@Wizballs Great, and I'm glad it scanned clean too.

Yep, although there are a few quirks here. First is that they limit the download speed to about 250 KB/s for non-donators, fair enough. But the bigger issue is that it downloads it to the internal storage (obviously), which MoKee automatically encrypts, so normal TWRP can't see it and it can't be installed. They supposedly have a MoKee flavor of TWRP that works with the encryption. I briefly tried to download it, but it was a Baidu site in Chinese that offered me Linux packages (DEB or RPM), which didn't make sense, so I stopped there. But I'll look into it more again and report back.
Fair enough, will stick to manual updates then. Would prefer to keep stock twrp.
Approx 2.5% battery over 24 hours standby. Very good.
I decided to switch to the MoKee flavor of TWRP, linked here in a more accessible location:

With that flashed, OTA updates work well. (Plus it allows for manipulating /system and /data from the TWRP file manager, which is very useful sometimes. Plus, it allows for flashing other scripts like Magisk from TWRP, which adds an addon.d hook to allow it to survive upgrades.)

Quick post to note that in later Android versions (from A10+?) the default launcher is always in charge of displaying recents, so it can't/shouldn't be uninstalled -- this may explain stability issues...

Look at that battery saving. Worldwide could account to millions dollars saved each year

Can you share the Mokee recovery via a different link? That link doesn't work and the one on Mokee's website points to Baidu, which seems to require a Baidu account to download. I can't create a Baidu account though, since it requires you to use a China mobile number to register.
UPDATE:
NVM, found the link via another XDA thread. Here it is:
TWRP-20200628-3.3.1.0-clover.img
drive.google.com
This ROM is missing face unlock, which isn't a big deal considering that the battery life is a big improvement over the last ROM I was using, but still would be nice to have...
