Miui on the epic - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I own an Evo 4g and my wife has an Epic 4g. Both phones have been modded since the day they were purchased and recently I installed miui's latest rom and it is a great looking and great working rom. Its clean, not cluttered or bogged down w crap. I haven't found a rom for the epic that we have fallen in love with. My wife grabbed my Evo and really liked the rom.
Spool to my question, is anyone working on or can work on this port to the epic? I don't care if its gingerbread lol. It can be froyo, as long as it works smooth. Anyone have any suggestions on similar rom's or information about Miui port project? Thanks for reading and helping.

If you have used it, you will realize it's not very ideal to use as it breaks a lot of different things and just because the phone boots with the theme doesn't really mean it's compatible or was meant for the Epic.
I would like to recall the statement I made of using the cm6 gingerbread theme for EVO on the epic 4G because I just remembered why I stopped using it in the first place.
"In some instances when flashed it stops picking up sprint network and brand you has roaming and you end up with an extra fee on your bill

pretty sure someone actually did a legit port of it but it might be way down as it wasnt too popular since most people arent using CM until the official

[ROM-AOSP][08-29-11] Evervolv [Crespo4GONLY]|GRJ22/Android 2.3.5| v0.1a

Alright ladies and gentlemen, I am glad to finally bring you the Evervolv series of ROM's. (THIS IS NOT OFFICIAL) Its is a port. That's all.
This rom would not be possible without the CM team, so i give them props any time i can.
What is not working:
Wifi
Wimax
First off:
You will need ClockworkMod 4.1.0.4 to flash this rom (uses ext4 partitioning) - You can find this here Also, this rom, as of this moment is only for the Nexus S 4G, NS coming soon.
Second: This rom was not created by me, all credit goes to preludedrew and the evervolv team. All i did is create a build for us NS and NS4G users. Also for Screenshots, check out Evervolv.com!
Now:
Download the latest from here.
Make sure to do a full wipe. Also, flash Google Apps here.
RSVP....
looking forward to it

Just checked out the website and screenshots...very nice work, I like it! Think you will be able to successfully port this to the ns4g?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
Sorry i wasnt specific, this is ONLY for the ns4g.
So I just flashed, everything is looking great! I love the bootanimation
Out of habbit I flashed Matr1x kernel immediately after the ROM. What kernel came with the ROM? The GRJ22 OTA one?
Wow this is really nice! Great job on this. I forgot how awesome Evervolv is
Thanks, ill upload an update in a bit.
sorry to be ignorant, but seeing as ive never heard of this rom. mind spilling out some of the features?

My favorite is the Evolver settings. You get the ability to show/hide clock, change lockscreen, change battery indicator, change layout of launcher (Evervolv, Gingerbread, or Froyo), add/remove transparency from notification drop down, show/hide different things from status bar like gps icon. There's a ton more like different transitions. Also has Theme Chooser

How does this compare to oxygen? I have no complaints with oxygen at the moment but willing to try something new if its worth it
I flashed this and its nice but it feels really laggy. But its really. Nice.

I think it's just the transitions. Makes the desktop transitions seem slow.

Acs custom rom ?

Wondering when ACS custom rom will be out. I know its already in testing and @darren said it was looking pretty good which should be obvious since ACS developers do a crazy good job but just hoping to get a little more info on the release i know no eta's are given. MY ET4g is still completely stock waiting for that rom to come out and im rooting it.
Tweet or pm an acs person
They have their own site so maybe you can search there

Is anyone working on dualbooting

With all our great devs working ob awesome new roms and things it would be awesome if i could dual boot roms
I would have my stockish daily driver and what ever i wanted as my other rom
For the og epic there were a gajillian betas for the miui ron and not all of them booted so having dual boot helped test them in the go and not a a brick in my pocket for half of the day
if nobody is working on this i am requesting
im 16 and have no more money cause all my computers broke and i have to buy a new one so i cant offer a bounty like there is for ics
but somebody please work on this

I would also Like to get dualbooting. There was an app that I paid for that worked great on the evo but nothing for our phone
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I guess time will tell
It was like 9 months after the og epic came out that we got dual booting
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
What we should do is bug the developers of Boot Manager to support Samsung phones. I paid for the app, but can't use it on this phone. It works great on my EVO 3D and I have 5 ROMS to choose from. Check it out in the Market. http://tinyw.in/4LOA
I just had to move down from a GS3 to this Epic 4G Touch, and see what I did for S3 in my sig. I think I'll try to adapt it for the E4GT.

How are the ROMs? Please.

I thinking about getting this phone. But would like to hear your opinions

No cyanogen of any variety... YET. It is definitely in the works. Also should be getting ICS at some point according to Samsung.
That said, this phone is awesome even running stock Gingerbread. It is incredibly fast, the screen is amazing and I think it is far and away the best android phone you can get on Sprint. It even gives the Verizon Galaxy Nexus a run for its money. I came from the Epic 4G and have not had a moments regret.

CM9 isn't out at all yet for our phone, but there is a WORKING CM7 Kang for our phone, which has very few bugs left to work out. It'll be picked up for nightlies soon enough, then CM9 work will begin.
An ICS leak came out today that works with our phone, but no data/wifi/phone calls/etc... because of the kernel. Probably a little while out on this one, but it's coming for sure. Sprint and Samsung have already confirmed this phone WILL get ICS.
As of now, Blazer ROM is the absolute best in my opinion. Been running it since version 1.2 and it's now on 3.4. It's updated consistently, "blaz"ingly smooth & the creator PhantomHacker is a very active member in our community.
^ Plus ICS theme & a few others
So is touch wiz an unforgiving whore or is it easy to get rid of?
I heard that you can't make kernels with out source. Are the ics or gb source out?

Aside from very minor cosmetic tweaks to the framework the vast majority of what is known as 'touchwiz' can be gotten around by installing an alternate launcher...once rooted you can just delete the apk and be done with the mess.
After coming from HTC devices I mortally feared the fail that was TW. Come to find out that this version of TW is actually pretty goddamned good. It's not thrilling, it doesn't scale with screen density changes and the aesthetic choices leave much to be desired (ugly garish icons, page-dots, app drawer button at the right side and seems unmovable). But it's not much more intrusive than a launcher and some native launcher widgets.....and is seriously extremely smooth as hell though and worth consideration--and I love ADWex and LP.
Source has been released for both...it's all in progress. The CM7 kang is my daily driver (and hauls ass) and last I heard agrabren was going to be working with the CM7 kang developer on CM9.
...and so far as not being able to make a kernel without source, umm, perhaps I am misunderstanding something, but, I didn't know there was any other way to make a kernel.

I like Touchwiz 4.0. Very well thought out. I definitely like it over vanilla and Sense.
It's simple, like vanilla, it's buttery smooth (gpu accelerated), and it has extra neat little things like notifications on lockscreen, swiping left/right (message/call default) in Contacts. Etc...
I also like TW4.0, its actually nice. There's a good selection of ROM's available, and definitely potential in the works, just takes time. We have some great developers doing awesome things.
roms are great and getting better, meaning more roms keep coming
