CHANGE LOG
MIUI v5 version 3.11.29 - Theme and Mihome Launcher Improvements
Changelog:
- Theme Manager improvements
- MiHome Launcher Improved
- Miui Change Log Here
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO INSTALL ROM with NEW THEME MANAGER - version 3.9.27 and above
On the first installation delete the contents of the MIUI folder on the SDCard
If you have an earlier version than 3.9.27 do a fresh Install to avoid theme and App issues
(DO NOT use any update features in this ROM for Miui or the MiHome Launcher - they will cause errors)
1.Install the ROM and let it boot - no need to registered for an xiaomi account (skip this)
2.Once the ROM is booted you may copy any theme mtz to the Miui\theme folder on the sdcard
3.Open Theme Manager and you will now notice a new menu called 'Theme upgrade'
4.Tap the Theme upgrade and then tap the symbol at the bottom of the next page
5.The themes will now automatically import - this may take a while
6.Back on the previous page all your themes should now be present
7.An internet connection is now required to apply each new theme
8.Please reboot the ROM to activate any new theme features
Users can mix and match theme features and attain their desired end result
An xiaomi account is NOT required to apply themes
Always obtain themes from reliable sources to avoid issues - http://www.droidviews.com/
Using MiuiV4 themes is possible however not all features will work as intended
Anybody wanting the settings menus any colour than white please use the mtz theme in the first post footer
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUGS
PIN Screen Lock reboot issues - turn PIN Lock off
No HD video - use a third party Camera Apps
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fixes and Performance Tweaks
Snappier mobile
--------------------------------
go into Settings > developer options > and Window animation scale and Transition Animation scale > change both of those to 0.5x
(or 0 for both, for instant reactions).
Fix issues with no sound or muted incoming calls/text after rom update
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
clear data for messaging app and phone app
Fix issues with rotation and excellerometer
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
simply smack the back of the mobile firmly into the palm of your hand
Fix for unresponsive or fc of google play store
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Go into recovery and clear all Cache values (Partition cache and Davik cache)
reinstall Gapps and reboot
If that fails try this:
clear the data for all google apps and the following;
google account manager
google play services
google play store
google services framework
and make sure 'download manager' is enabled
Alternative fixes for google play store:
Delete all google apps listed above that will go without forcing (remove play store updates)
reboot into recovery and reinstall your Gapps
clear all Cache
reboot
Best advice is to look out for the Play store updates that appear without warning (main causes of issues)
After you update your ROM clear the cache and reboot first before installing Gapps

"UPDATE NOTICE: Superuser Permissions need to be enabled via permissions.apk menu enable superuser Permissions. (Permissions is found in Tools folder)"
open Permissions, menu/settings/enable. reboot phone
Superuser access is disabled by default in all Miui versions and must be turned on by the user.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ROM is Stable enough for every day use with only slight minor bugs
Should be okay for gaming however due to size of this current rom you could run out of RAM quickly
I have removed lots of crap as I had Memory RAM issues just taking photos
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUGS list is in my second post

...anybody have issues with applying themes or with themes not applying?
Need some feedback on this so I can fix this if it is a wider issue
Hoping it is just isolated to my mobile and the left over theme folder from my old Miui version
