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

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.

love the idea but a bit too bare for me. FC's when opening contacts through phone and no stock mms. maybe ill give it a try when i have time to customize it myself

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.
Gingerbread Notification Icons(MetaMorph including Market, Gmail, and TWiz Email notifications.)
PLEASE READ:
This is just a little MetaMorph I threw together to change the notification icons of your favorite Vibrant ROM to the AOSP Gingerbread style icons. I pulled the icons from the Galaxy S and the leaked Gingerbread I9000 ROM. This is currently a BETA release to iron out any problems, and to take suggestions for more icons I may have missed, or icons from other apps I may have forgot about. Feedback is highly appreciated. This should work on all 2.1 through 2.2.1 ROMs, but I've currently only tested it on my current driver, that's where you come in!
NOTE: This may also work on other Galaxy S devices, but please, if you're going to test it, MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!!! Or at least know how to restore your current framework.)
Disclaimer:
I do my best to thoroughly test and make sure my themes and updates as universal as possible. That being said, not every flash is perfect. Issues with my themes/updates in the past have been rare, and easily recoverable, but that may not always be the case. Just as with any other updates you apply to your device, you're taking a small risk; That risk can grow when negative factors are added, e.g. human error/misjudgment, bad downloads, bad flashes, etc. I make these updates in my spare time, and offer them to anyone interested, however I am not responsible for damaged software, hardware, or any lives that brutally fall apart after flashing my updates. Please make sure you fully understand what you're doing, and the steps to reverse it if necessary, before applying these updates. XDA is a valuable source of information, simple searching/reading threads will often help you find a solution.
Instructions:
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP if you don't know how to restore your framework if anything goes wrong.
If you don't already have it, install the MetaMorph app by Stericson from the Market.
Download the attached .zip, and place it somewhere you'll remember on your sdcard.
Make sure USB storage is unmounted, and for best results, activate Flight Mode.
Run the MetaMorph app, Start Checks, and Unzip/Extract the .zip you previously placed on your sdcard.
Close the description. You can now install the different sub themes individually if you so chose (it's scrollable) , or you can select Apply all!
If you chose apply all and didn't encounter a forced reboot, it will prompt you to reboot, do so. Otherwise try again if it was unsuccessful, and reboot when it's done.
Deactivate Flight Mode and enjoy!
NOTE: You will have to reapply the sub themes for Market and Gmail every time they update.

THANKS JDAN! I've only tested Gmail and Market notifications, but its working great!
The Market icons seem to have reverted back somehow. Ill try to apply it again and see how long it lasts.
Your Market probably just auto updated. Every time Market and Gmail are updated they will "revert" back to the standard notification icons.

Metamorph is rarely successful for me on the first attempt when modifying framework-res. It usually takes me at least two attempts, sometimes with it force rebooting on me. Did Gmail, Email, and Market work for you at least?
On a side note, I might hit you up on Gtalk later with a couple questions.
Hi
I originally posted this request under 'Galaxy S II Themes and Apps' at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1089696 on 21st May but after 268 views there hasn't been a single reply- I guess that I posted in the wrong section. I have also searched many times for a solution using various terms but not found a description of how to do this successfully. I have seen this described for the original Galaxy and variations but have not been able to implement these on the SGS2 or seen any guidelines for the SGS2 or 2.3.3 specifically.
I use the calendar on my phone a lot, with in fact 5 Google calendars in use and on view at the same time across 3 different Google accounts. Unfortunately the SGS2 TouchWiz calendar is sadly deficient with regard to the AOSP calendar as I used with Cyanogenmod 6.1 on my Hero previously and I would very much like to swap it out for the AOSP or Cyanogenmod calendar. Can anyone advise on how to do this? Many thanks in advance for any assistance!
Some of the disadvantages of Samsung Calendar with regard to AOSP calendar:
Black background makes many appointments difficult to see as calendar colours are optimised for white background as with Google calendar web interface and AOSP calendar app. There does not appear to be any support for a theme or colour option setting.
All-day events are shown right at the top of the page and so are easily missed on Samsung Calendar but kept in view on with AOSP. See attached 'day view' screenshot with no all-day events visible despite week and month view showing 3 all day events that day.
All-day events lasting more than one day are shown separately for each day in most views with Samsung calendar and so it is not easy to see that they span several days. In week and month view, they are often reduced to tiny squares which have no label and can be really hard to see- see attached screenshot- can you see that there are 3 all day events on Saturday 21st but only 2 on the other days in the purple calendar? AOSP calendar would show them as continuous events spanning several days.
No hyperlink support: AOSP calendar allows you to click through on a phone number mentioned in an appointment to dial it, or the location described to do a maps search, the Samsung Calendar does not permit this.
Screenshots taken with this app (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.geeksoft.screenshot&feature=search_result) which decided to shift all of the colours here for some reason although I don't think it significant here- it still illustrates the above points adequately.

I have/had the stock calendar working on VillainROM, albeit with a few graphics quirks. If you can cope with that, I'll put it into VRTweaks for VillainROM 1.4 if you want
Stock email available too
EDIT: It's up in VR1.4. I need to work on the UI glitches though.
Thanks. What sort of graphics quirks? Is VRTweaks part of your ROM or an optional add-on?

It's an installable addon to the ROM.
The graphics quirk is basically a thin blue bar across the top of the screen and a few incorrect icons in email app.
I'm going to try fix them today, as it can't be too hard
(famous last words )
Great! I can likely live with a small blue bar at the top of the screen and I don't use the Email app, only the Gmail one. Where do/will I find this package and what else does it change please?
Thanks

If you have installed VillainROM 1.4 (ROM will appear like stock, but with better battery life etc), then you just install the VRTweaks app (google it or look here on XDA ), then scroll in the list for Vanilla Calendar
Once you've done that, you should be sorted.
Oh, and I think I found the UI glitch So it might be gone before you are even started
Thanks, so I presume that I would have to do a complete wipe and install your ROM as described here before I could install the tweaks? The only link I have found for the tweaks is to a previous version (v1.3.1- 29 May) where you say
It is NOT ready for mainstream use, so consider it Alpha.

I know that this will sound really boring, but I really do depend on my calendars. What is the current state of these tweaks and have you written anywhere what the current versions of your ROM and tweaks package change compared to stock?

The ROM, compared to stock, should be fine. If you check the ROM thread, that should explain how the ROM differs to stock (it's quite similar)
VRTweaks itself is "alpha", but it's in use by tens of thousands of people now.
If you're after calendar, I'm not aware of any issues, and am trying to get rid of the blue bar, which is just a bit annoying.
UI glitches removed from VR1.4 Vanilla calendar option.
Thanks for all of your trouble, advice and hard work. I am afraid that I am going to pass here however. Excepting the hassle of a backup/wipe/flash/restore, I presume that what changes listed are listed for your ROM are cumulative (i.e. changes in earlier versions are carried over to later versions) and there are a number here that I would prefer to avoid. The removal of the battery limits on the video player and camera would be worthwhile but I guess I am quite conservative and I would prefer to avoid changes made simply for their own sake, such as the CRT screen shut-down animation and alteration to the battery charge status icon. I have used several of your Hero ROMs in the past and whilst changes for their own sake are great for those that want them, I am afraid that I have a strong preference for isolated changes that affect only their specific function and leave the rest untouched.
Thanks

Umm.. None of those changes you mentioned are in the ROM...
The ROM itself is same as stock, but you choose what you want from VRTweaks...
Not sure if you are misunderstanding. You pick the tweak you want from the list, and it installs.
Either way, up to you. But I don't use anything like all the tweaks available
Check this one
I am always using the calendar imported from Insanity ROM v8 for SGS. I'm not sure if it will help you but you can give it a try. It's totally white so you can see everything well. Good luck!
Thanks ghiri but there are some problems here:
I have not heard of this ROM and it would be nice to see a screenshot of what it looked like.
You can't replace the system calendar with an apk installed from the memory card in the normal way. If I could do this then I would have just installed the AOSP calendar apk from the Nexus S ROM, that's why I was requesting guidance at the beginning of this thread.
As a short/medium-term fix I have installed CalenGoo. It's not as good as the AOSP calendar but it does work. I am afraid that I find the steps described for installing VillainROM somewhat daunting, especially for a ROM that is apparently almost stock and when we are apparently expecting an official upgrade to 2.3.4 'any time now'.

if you delete the samsung calender then you can install the aosp calender (I installed from the nexus s) it installs just like a normal apk into data/app

Using rootexplorer and adb i did the following
with rootexplorer i browsed to /system/app/ and renamed TouchwizCalender.apk to TouchwizCalender.apk.bak
then i did
Code:
adb push Calendar.apk /system/app/
and it worked just fine. or atleast its working fine so far
of course you can just move the calendar.apk with rootexplorer.
or if you dont have rootexplorer you can do it all with adb as well.
I used the Calendar.apk provided by Ghiri in this post

Thanks for this. Using adb I seem to be stuck with the default.prop error described here and here. Any ideas?
I Rooted using the following procedure after each upgrade, do I need to reinstall the XWKDD_insecure kernel temporarily in order to change the calendar?
Thanks
Make sure your device is in USB debugging mode: Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging
Reboot your device into download mode: Turn the device off, then power it on again by pressing and holding VolumeDown + Home + Power simultaneously. You will know when you are in download mode, it is really obvious
Start ODIN
Connect the device to your computer using USB
Wait a few seconds, the ODIN screen should show you that a device is now connected
Make sure that in ODIN NOTHING is checked, except the "Auto reboot" and "F. Reset Time" checkboxes. Press the "PDA" button, and select the "XWKDD_insecure.tar" file.
Press "Start". ODIN you should now be flashing the kernel, and the device should reboot.
Wait until the device is rebooted, and while still being connected over USB, start SuperOneClick, and press ROOT.
Assuming this is successful you can then shutdown the phone and go to download mode as above
Now you can flash the Stock kernel to get rid of the yellow triangle just like how we flashed the insecure kernel above.
Reboot the device
Done !
Pulser, thanks for the work on this. Would it be possible to post just the calendar.apk with the ui issues fixed? I am switching between roms fairly regularly and not all allow me to use vr tweaks.
Thanks
Hello people.... i have a question about this mod.... i have tried to extract the pulsarg2 vanilla calendar from villaintweaks to put these in hdblog rom from leo75, but i have this situation:
The pulsar2g vanilla apk are only 2 files, calendar.apk and calendarprovider.apk.
Replacing only calendar.apk in Leo rom make the calendar start, but when i press option key to enter in calendar setting the program crashes. Also i notice the widget "agenda" from Samsung still present.
Replacing calendarprovider.apk with pulsarg2 apk removes the "agenda" widget but makes the calendar crash immediately and doesn't start anymore.
How i can solve this trouble? I need aosp calendar, please!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
#1 Thank you to all devs contributing to modifications for this phone.
I've tested most every Rom, and there's things I like and dislike about each one. So all the good has been thrown together in this legendary thing, an anthology of sorts.
A breath of fresh air, comin atcha.
If this is your first Rom flash, please don't use this, there's a little work into getting it going, but I'll go through it in detail.

What's wrong
-White(ish) text on white in a couple menus
-As with many custom roms, this comes with Nova Launcher. Note- it's nice to have a weather and clock widget. I've included Android Weather in the zip, but it gets deleted with updater script in recovery, because it acts like a 'rogue' app and cpu will run full blast until it's deleted. But, it won't do that if you copy/paste it to /system/app manually. Or, if you'd like Sense, that's included too, more on that later.
How to
-Flash the base Rom
-Let boot, reboot into recovery
-Dirty Flash the Bada$$ Rom right over it
-Boot, WAIT for Reader to import books, then open SuperSU, install binary normally.
-Open SManager, grant su, open settings, Advanced, Configuration, Home Directory- /system/bin. Then navigate to /system/etc. Run Zsysctl.sh as su on boot. Navigate to /system/etc/init.d. Run these as su on boot: 08oomtweaks, 92vac, 99buttered, MoreIOTweaks, sqliteDbs, and zzzz. Before running zzzsqliteDbs, make sure you've had an internet connection so that you have a gservices.db. Run it on boot also.
Sense
If you want Sense Launcher, go into Titanium Backup, Backup/Restore, scroll to bottom and restore Htc Sense(app only, restore data later if you want). Then flash Sense zip provided.
Downloads
I might add Sprint stuff later

-To get old Skype working, visit this thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2860388
-FYI, starting Kernel Tuner app will mount /sys/kernel/debug
-If ya use Android Firewall, media server needs internet for YouTube to work. And when using DroidVpn, the kernel needs internet perm's along with 'all apps running as root'
-If using Sense, whichever apps are put in dock will be on the lockscreen. With Nova launcher, Lockscreen Shortcuts app is used to set them.
-If having tether or 3g problems, go into CrossBreeder app and disable Bypass ISP. If getting network error with YouTube, disable dnsmasq.
-Quietly Brilliant ringtone is in tribute to Negalite
-Let me know if you don't like the battery icons, and I'll pm ya a fix
-Navigation bar can be activated in ReliveSOL module, double tap status bar to sleep and long press back to kill applications are also working with that
Glad to see your rom, congrats on getting it together
Thanks for everything @jcfunk, my brother

May I ask what the specs are for this? Android version number?

For users downloading Rom before Jan. 16, please flash this to fix Beats Audio and ringtones/notifications. My apologies
https://db.tt/bIhWWCwq
And if the friggin notification sounds still won't work, go into es file explorer, long press on the sound in the /sdcard/media/audio folder, sub menu appears, hit 'more', press 'compress'. Delete original sound. Then long press on the zip file that it makes, press 'more' again, press 'extract', hit 'current path', delete the zip, and now the sound will show in sound picker. When flashed to sd, the id3 tags are screwed up for some reason....? This generic method creates them.
Edit, also I rebuilt the kernel wrong, it was only at 1.35GHz max, and no gpu oc, here is the fix- https://db.tt/vITkrXLP

I have a new test kernel, if you can test. That would be great.

Any work on adding Sprint?
hi all, this is my thread from a long time ago, so if you've subscribed, you're in luck! since the coromavirus hit, and even longer, I've been working on putting together the ultimate package for adblocking, tracker crushing, just, a pure web experience where your device isn't downloading garbage that eats up data, especially useful for 4g/5g connections!
Way back in 2013 I rooted my first device, the Evo 3D. then ensued an almost compulsive urge to use my devices the way I want, from theming (I love dark themed apps) to adblocking. I haven't found an allin-one solution for my adblocking, etc. needs, and so I imagine there's others out there looking for the same. The ultimate one stop shop for android needs. I've found it thru a little app called Adguard. An extremely powerful app, with options to run extensions that further the android experience. Such as video downloaders, which may be considered warez here on XDA. YT dl'ers, vimeo, fb, p*rn, e.g.
Also offered is theming options to websites. One important one you'll find is filterlists.com. I've included filter lists in this package that I've found useful and helpful. I could go on and on about all the features, I'll stick to a select few I'm most excited about. so when you install this, check out how I took a modification, a filter, called DarkFilterLists, n made it better, @ www.filterlists.com/lists Check out reddit n imgur n xda n pinterest n facebook n twitter n YouTube n Google n music streaming sites n video streaming sites and the list goes on. like I said, it's a much cleaner browsing experience! PLEASE! Test my work, n it's not all on me, I've found so much help online plus with tampermonkey's modules this is a kickass mod. but the down side is that it costs. U get 2 weeks free n after that u can pay monthly, yearly, or like $70 last time I checked for a lifetime.
I need help with this, because I can't host it from Dropbox because once it catches on, they would suspend my account for so many downloads, same with the other sites. will someone please help me with this. I'm thinking about asking Adguard because this thing is goina make them $$$$!!!!
Now for the instructions or directions on how to install this. Adguard is in the Play Store. 2 weeks fully featured, during this period, you'll notice a bulge or wetness in your undies. don't worry, it's common. this is a judgement free zone here. so install, go to settings-
General-Import settings.json I supply here. Then settings- Content Blocking- user rules- import adguard_cb_user_filter...then go into your wifi settings and type in the settings in the pics included with my zip file you download.
And you're all set, ENJOY!! Don't thank me for this, thank others involved responsible for Adguard
I will host it from my dropbox til I get help-
https://www.dropbox.com/s/v67i2hrxqgd2rum/ZBadassAdguard3.zip?dl=0
Or try this- https://db.tt/BlQOuyKQGA
you can flash it in recovery, but I don't see the point
please share this with your closest friend(s)

I'll do what I can for ya, I don't understand what happened exactly. You S-off'd n it started bootlooping, is that it? Do you have s-off, if so, flash the eng. H-boot, I never came across a rom it wouldn't boot. Have you tried restoring a backup, I'm familiar with twrp and I can't remember what the touch recovery was called. It's been a long time since I've had this device. I'll check back here, gimme more info on what's going on
