right this is my first post in the many years i have been on xda, i have read and read, and well basically i cant find a tutorial or even a mod that has miui rom with a none miui stock launcher, im sure many of us love miui and hate its default launcher and i have seen similar questions asking about an alternative launcher to which the only answer seems, just download one from market, and set as default.... yeah thats what i do, but when i go into settings and i see launcher settings its for stock miui, grr, i would like to have one launcher (LP, ADW, Zeam, hell even stock GB launcher), not the stock miui 'iphone style' launcher, and have the launchers settings in settings , much like cyangenmod with his adw, and adw settings in settings!
i have tried editing the settings apk, the personal xml and all that, but tbh im not too savvy on that and i just seem to break things and get FC's....
anyway little rant over, does anyone else agree with me, and even better to that, does anyone have the skill and willing to either help me in creating a miui rom with a non miui launcher or just create it themselves? (with its launcher settings in settings)
imagine that... Miui with and android look, straight out the box!!!
just out of curiosity, what launcher would everyone prefer to have with miui?
I don't know if what you described is possible, but I would recommend Go Launcher EX. It's very similar to MIUI, but it has an app drawer. It's easily themeable and has a built-in theme shop like MIUI.
hey its android, if it was written, it can be re-written (at least i hope so) lol
anyhow, i have found this in the Settings.apk\res\xml\personal_settings.xml
<PreferenceScreen android:title="@string/launcher_settings_title" android:key="launcher_settings" android:image="@2130837580">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.android.launcher" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="com.android.launcher2.LauncherPreferenceActivity" />
</PreferenceScreen>
i dunno if this is a step in the right direction, or even in any direction, it seems to me that the settings.xml doesnt have anything for the launcher, but this personal_settings.xml does, any devs willing to help me, a complete novice?
Any ideas? Anyone?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
The difficulty seems to be that MIUI is closed source, so only the people who are part of the core project (in China) can really make deep level changes like that.
There are several devs who are compiling their own copies of MIUI, and adding various tweaks and fixes, but embedding a link to the settings of a different launcher into the settings page of the ROM seems like it would require some source-level information, which just isn't available.
The people who created MIUI obviously like their launcher, so it's doubtful they'll ever add support for other launchers, either.
ah bummer... so am i at a lost cause? to be honest the only thing i like about miui is the way it breaks the settings down into 3 simple pages - personal, system, and programs. anyway thanks for the unfortunate news (my brain can rest now yay!) ...... unless maybe..... ah lol its 4:30am, i must sleep on this decision to quit or not, night xda!!!
hi, just wondering if there are any roms available that are completely stable and finished for this phone?
if not, (as i have not found any), is the original stock rom (rojers) available to download anymore?
thanks guys..

After reading a lot, I believe I can confirm that only GB, and stock ICS are stable, as with no issues, some little glitches but no deal breakers. As for Rogers, there's only Osimod GB ROM based of Rogers. The rest are based of UCLJ3

I may be off base here but I guess the [4.4] cyanogenmod 11 and omni ROM are pretty much stable ...
Though the pretty much is still a while away from complete the following are the general bugs with bubor's amazing Roms:
There is an audio bug when making VoIP calls which gives audio latency ..
There is fixed camera rotation which means all the pictures are in landscape
There is no Wi-Fi direct
Google experience launcher is not that Good looking (I know I am complaining)
Google maps 7 has issues but can be dual loaded with maps 6 so they work
Backlight,PPI, lag all have fixes though
Battery drain is a bit more
But as far as performance goes... They are pretty smooth..
So I guess make your choice

i wish i could agree with you.. im running kitkat crdroid, and like every rom i have flashed over the years, has plenty of bugs that make it very annoying as a daily rom. phone switching off twice a day, icons/widgets dissapearing after rebooting, becomes laggy after a week or so of usig the rom, laggy browsing on all browsers, trebucket crashing regurly etc etc, thats on top of the bugs you list.. the only roms that are stable are completely finished official cm or miui roms (which there are none for this fone..). the stock rom is the only one that has not given me trouble. with the greatest respect to those that put their time i to make these roms, im sure people who flash them make them out to be more stable than they really are unfortunatelly.
Maybe we have developer aura or something like that? I'm sure I just used 4.4 PAC ROM for a week without reboot or any crashes. Bluetooth, fixed camera rotation and VoIP - yes, these are issues we can't fix, the same is with google maps v.7 (we just have no hardware NEON support that uses v.7 of maps). There is also issue with wi-fi: if you turn it off, it sometimes don't turns on until reboot. As for myself, I just never turn it off.
Besides of these issues, everything is smooth and stable. Really is. But I got sometimes trebuchet crashes - this was a time when I flashed dirty and didn't make a factory reset - the new trebuchet version sometimes conflicts with the data from old version. I just went to Settings - Apps, found Trebuchet (or Launcher3 if old version) and tapped Erase Data. And the issue was gone! But I recommend to always make a factory reset with new ROM. That's really important.
And even if you have those constant trebuchet bugs whatever you do (icons disappearing is also a trebuchet bug, I never encountered it though), just install a different launcher. Google now launcher is the basic, and is like trebuchet in many ways, miui one is also good, and others, they are many!
I had problems with some icons disappearing when the system reboots. I found that the icons that disappeared were for applications which were installed on the SD card. When I moved them to the system, they stopped disappearing.

like i said in my first post, i do really appriciate the fact that people spend Alot of time cooking theese roms, and it easy for me to come along and moan about them, but i have found over the years that after using a custom rom for a couple of weeks or so, its like the ram seems to gradually get eaten away, the device gradually slows down, becomes laggy and ultimately unuseable (not just this fone, and not just me that says this). im not saying all are like this, just many i have used, mainly because they never get finished.
i am very open though to people suggesting that i am doing something wrong, and maybe you have picked up on that something.. you say you do a factory reset, can i ask, do you mean a factory reset in the fone settings, or are you referring to a full wipe using cwm/twrp? as when i flash, i wipe everything accept what i dont want wiped on the external sd.. i dont factory reset, is this after you have flashed the new rom? or before you flash a new rom?
also thank you for the erase data tip for trebucket, i will try that.. i have not used the google now launcher yet, but i tried using miui launcher but when i went back to trebucket the lockscreen stayed as the miui lockscreen, which has happened on past cm roms, so i just deleted it.
just gets a bit frustrating when you spend hours getting everything working/setting up personalisation, then the phone just seems to start getting worse day by day, but maybe like you say, its cos i "dirty flashed"?

i did think that, and im sure you are right, but i have had every app/folder/widget dissappear twice now, then, randomly over several restarts, some widgets/apps will replace themselves over the top of the new ones i have just newly placed there.. strange, but i have came across this before on cm roms, so im sure there is a bug there somewhere, even if it is not too common..

Yes, what you do should suffice. I meant cwm/twrp wipe (boot, system, data, cache, android.secure). SD card is not touched. So you are doing fine with that, but anyway, there has to be something make those issues... Can you look at /system/addon.d folder? There is stored info about files that will be preserved even if you install a new ROM with a wipe. If there are many leftovers from ROMs or programs you tried earlier, then you should try to manually clear this folder before new ROM install.

That was the point with pre-4.2 ROMs, and even with 4.2 there was a bug with gallery thumbnails which made it to eat gigabyte and more of storage after some time. That was fixed in CM 10.1.3. Also a Lite-Kernel used by earlier ROMs is very great, but has its issues, for example, systemui crashes when camera launch after some phone use and sleep of death.
I used CM 10.1.3 for a a three months and still keeping a backup of it for a some case. There was no slowing or lagging, it was almost perfect (if you don't use VoIP or BT handset) even after those months of use. Strangely, but I didn't have even "settings -> about crash" issue bubor listed!
Welll here are some tip which have helped me

i .. umm.. well i agree that as of now they have issues but they will get better .. ours is an old device... so i guess we should tread slowly . which is exactly what the developers are doing .. .
and i agree on the ram hungry part but there are ways for that too . .
funny i have been messaging people to help me post this stuff through them . . but well thats the prob with being a junior member .
My personal tested suggestions for omni rom which have really incremented to the performace some of which are :
- using one of the lightest launchers as i find trebuchet and even google launcher RAM hungry is 'Lightning Launcher' the bloody app itself is in BYTES!!
-also i use link2sd with ext4 that helps in storage and also use sd maid for regular clean up.
-also i have been testing memory swapping using linux swap partition on sd card (class 10 ) and yeah i know it degrades sd card but oh well like Glados testing testing testing
-i have also switch off startup at boot for certain apps
and i apologize for posting what maybe well known tricks or improvs but i really dont know where else to post these (still have the ten post ban from posting )
and if these dont help then sorry to waste your time . .
PS anyone think an F2FS file system like for the nexus7 would\might help ?
tl;dr use the given tips maybe they might help . . and with custom roms i guess you have to spend time to keep them running well .

ok thanks, i cleared the data in trebucket, and started again with placing apps/widgets on home screen, and i also have deleted the hacked version of adobe flash that you install with dolphin browser, and, supprisingly after a couple of days of testing, my apps/widgets are not deleting themselves, the phone is significantly less laggy, and i have had no switch offs, so, im very pleased with that! so id suggest against downloading that version of flash player with this rom..

For what it's worth, I recently had to reflash and decided to use dman325's stock UCLJ3. (He has two versions, stock and one with the aosp lockscreen. If you decide to use either, use the stock one. dman325 had to resign the aosp one with a test signing key that, recently, got invalidated or declined and it prevents Google Play from updating past 3.7.15 and Google Play Services wont install at all because of a shared_uid fault due to certificate conflict, etc.)
I got frustrated with the amount of bloat in an otherwise vendor fun-packed rom, so I went in and hacked out lots of crap. Largely relying on either "what is safe to get rid of" lists for similar samsung phones and my own poking around/guestimation using dex2jar and jd-gui. I really, honestly don't understand what InputEventApp.apk was meant to do. Seriously. But, getting rid of it reduced the logcat spam tremendously. Also, the wsslcm* apks are somewhat frightening in appearance.
I've gone a few steps further, I modified android.policy.jar smali to prevent the emergency dial option from showing up on the lock screen - I accidentally pocket dialed 911 a year ago and am not about to do that again. I also modified the kernel ramdisk image to set ro.debuggable=1 and ro.secure=0. I tried, while I was at it, to replace /dev/random with /dev/urandom, but I'll have to do some experimenting.
I've added a few static binaries for proper gnu utilities. bash, ls, grep, sort, du, etc. It surprises me that a functional shell environment doesn't get more attention on phones with keyboards.
So, that's my $0.02. Try the stock UCLJ3 and fiddle with it a bit. Good luck.

Well, you learn by doing, I believe. Also, I have a classy - for a flip phone - Motorola Razr2 v8 kicking around I can always put my SIM into if I've managed to hose my captivate glide. Also, I'm replying because I can't post in the rom development forum until I have 10 posts. Hurray for well founded, but nonetheless arbitrary restrictions. So, a number of things have piqued my curiosity.
So, first of all, this surprised me in the logs:
Code:
I/Launcher( 2263): onCreate(): product model family:U1 product model : GT-I9221
I'd always wondered why I had an SGH-I927 when other phones, like the remarkably similar Galaxy R, are GT-I9103. Is/was GT-I9221 an internal reference?
Also, there are other inconsistencies, for example:
Code:
D/RILJ ( 426): [1718]> REQUEST_GET_NEIGHBORING_CELL_IDS
D/RILJ ( 426): [1718]< REQUEST_GET_NEIGHBORING_CELL_IDS error: com.android.internal.telephony.CommandException: REQUEST_NOT_SUPPORTED
If you jump into the debug/field test menu system, (dial *#*#197328640#*#* ) you can bring up the list of neighboring cells in both GSM and WCDMA modes... So, why is the request marked not supported? Furthermore, why didn't samsung disable the request in the first place if they went to the trouble of disabling it from working. I imagine this has a reason, but I doubt it's a terribly great one.
And the FM receiver? I do believe our broadcom BCM4329 is a bluetooth+wifi_in_an_sdcard (well, SDIO really, but still, not pci-e and not usb.) and has an FM receiver built in, but it's omitted and hidden?
Code:
W/AudioPolicyManager( 112): FM radio recording off
Oh, the conspiracy theories. And then there's the weird lines you discover if you dump the string identifiers from /system/bin/drexe!
For example, these lines are all sequential:
Code:
broadcast -a android.provider.Telephony.SECRET_CODE android_secret_code://767*3855
InvokeOemRequestHookRaw broadcast factorst OK
InvokeOemRequestHookRaw factorst fail %d
/system/.configure.txt
(what's with /system/.configure.txt???)
Do not type 767*3855 into your phone. It's the factory wipe code or possibly part of it. I do believe drexe is the DataRouter you often see spamming the logs with:
Code:
E/DataRouter( 107): usb connection is true
E/DataRouter( 107): DSR is ON. Don't send DTR ON.
And we find these strings in drexe:
Code:
__initialize_usb_ipc
/data/.usb_stream
usb connection is true
InvokeOemRequestHookRaw usbstatus true is success
oh, and:
Code:
pipe failed (%s)
fork failed (%s)
child pid = %d.
execute sh.
system/bin/sh
execl fail %d
What do you think? Why does drexe seem to have code to support and start a shell? Well, if nothing else, thank you for reading.
P.S. I don't suspect anything the least bit conspiracy like, malicious, or devious. I've worked for some huge companies; i don't think it'd be likely.

Technically, you can post in cappy dev forums started from 3 posts. I saw someone posting there his fourth post.
As for other things you listed... Well, I'll be glad to have an FM receiver in our glide. But I really think that reason for all this staff can be as simply as hands growing from wrong place or restricted development time...

I recently, after some research, also installed dans stock (i decided to go complete stock since i didnt know what the lock screen thing meant).
I havent had any trouble with being outdated. Only thing i noticed (unless im doing it wrong, im new to this phone) was that screencaps dont work. its power button and volume down, right?
Other things id like to customize are data being in the top drawer instead of bluetooth (since i never use it), and id like to be able to see who texted me on the lock screen, but while still using the stock messaging app, and without an app having to constantly run.
Other than those couple of things its been great!
im HOPING down the road for an un-buggy or at least minimally buggy version of 4.4. well see what happens with that i guess.
Some help

well i always say stock is best cause it IS optimized however there are things like keep and total Google integration that i like so i updated to kit kat
for screen caps if they dont work i could maybe suggest an application called super manager its pretty loaded it has screen cap and may even give you prox sense wake up for device.
also customizing the drawer hmm.. i guess you could try xposed framework but please be careful and make a backup before
as for who texts you and the content of the text you could try dash clock its able to do a lot
hello guys I was just wondering if I could get some help since I returned back to fully Ice Cream Sandwich Stock. I completely removed all the system bloat with link2sd, uninstalled all att crap. Can anyone recommend me something since I feel the ram consuption still to high... battery so far is doing kind of good almost as in crdroid
But i believe it can be improved. Any recommended settings or something else i can do? Already tried lite kernel but it gave me some issues. Rather keep stock. Any recommendations please guys. Also if you know a "ok google" like app or something as a swifty assistant would be nice. Please recommend. Thanks in advance

Hi,
well that depends.. on what you mean with "finished"
I have tested all (3 months ago) available ROMs for the Glide. IMO the best available ROM is PACman but as said it depends. I used pac_i927-milestone.1.RC1.4.zip for a long time (months) without having any issues besides Bluetooth Headset which is a general problem in JB and higher version). I have tried other PACMan ROM versions as well but the above one was the best of stability and battery life (in my case).
So it depends what features you really need or are a must-have for you. If you do not have bluetooth headsets I would recommend the above otherwise .. well I would recommend sediROM

Does HDR work on this ROM? I've tried quite a few ROM's on my N5 and in most the HDR in google camera was non-existent in the options menu.
Is this a bug?
I've been looking through settings, and I can't find how to disable heads up notifications. I also tried search and that didn't do any good. Is the option missing? Or am I just blind?
ROM is great
But i've got a feature request for you. Previously i saw this only in mod for stock and in one rom. I'm talking about linking nav bar and status bar colours feature. Idk how it will be practical, but looks nice.
Fixed Camera Error on 04/08 build
I don't know if this post helps, but right after flashing Glitch kernel r320 I got the camera to work, so could it be that stock kernel has some issues?
Latest Update - what kernel is compatible
Hi there I'm curious what kernel works wittehe latest Chroma update as well as any additional files needed for f2fs. Thanks!
Btw best and quickest ROM I've used to date love the minimal GApps and overall speed/mem usage
I didnt found where to post it properly, so...
I found a bug in AOSP keyboard. When you try to change language, it force closes. Sometimes it closes when you open keyboard, sometimes it dont. I tried to use layers, completly same resoult. The ony modification i use is RRO Layers. Logcat present.
Hope you provide fix soon.
WOW
I think this is the best
Sick of damn crap memory leak on my galaxy note4 lollipop(5.0.1) + touchwiz crap
i found this rom is super awesome managing ram
system ram only 250~300mb!!!! wow!!!
now i installed about 200+ of 3rd party apps, many of them can stay alive, and i can load them very fast whenever i want!
I want to install this ROM but I'm unable or perhaps unwilling to give up the ElementalX app that was pulled from play store. So here's my problem. After I install ROM I try and restore ElemX app via TiBu it says I didn't purchase it. I know this isn't a problem with the ROM but perhaps someone knows a workaround.

Please ignore this post.Problem resolved.
this rom overclocked by cpu at 1. 7 ghz, is it okay to overclock. and xposed 5. 1 unofficial isn't working. I flashed it but got bootlop...
I have too few posts to post in the main thread, but just wanted to say thank you for this ROM. Finally a fully stable, fast, and up-to-date ROM that has everything functioning and adds only the extras that I also consider essential such as AppOps/Privacy Guard and power menu.
Great job.
The ONLY issue I've found on my Nexus 7-2013 seems related to the Franco Kernel and not your ROM exactly. The included kernel works with all Camera/USB-OTG/GPS/Wifi, but if you update to the latest R21 release with the Franco Updater app, it will cause the camera to be unable to connect.
I'm currently using the ElementalX-4 kernel instead and it seems fully compatible, and all devices including the Camera work.
Thanks again.

Very nice ROM
Using it for few weeks and love it. Very stable, tried different layers and looks great. Thank you for a wonderful job and hope the updates will be coming, even though it's been discontinued

No issues for me. Great work!
Also having issues with media control option.
i still got that home-button glitch
read quite some posting about it, but could not ind out if it was solved or if it will vanish with a new rom.....i am on the latest for n7
I'm having an issue with screen rotation. I can get it to landscape at all. Also it doesn't look like my brightness slider works at all either.
Any ideas?

Hello,really love the Rom. Just updated to the new version, fresh clean flash. Everything is running really smooth so far. Have a quick question about the settings menu, maybe I'm missing something but has the expanded desktop option been removed. I need the option to play clash of clans in full screen on my second user account. Any help is greatly appreciated
Latest build running great.
