[Q] How hard would it be to port MIUI? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I loved miui for the N1 and I was wondering if it would be possible to bring it to the Atrix. Are there any devs working on this?

A true MIUI clone is impossible with the locked bootloader. Some nice MIUI-style theming is do-able... but would be a lot of work.
Side note: Make sure to post questions in the questions forum!

That would be hard considering MIUI is now 2.3...
And we have a locked bootloader :S

Boy, that would take a pos and make it even worse...

Porting MIUI wouldn't be impossible. The milestone with its locked bootloader and 2.2 kernel is able to run 2.3 MIUI pretty well actually.

Milestone has a plethora of tools and developers... the kind that the Atrix doesn't have.

i loved MIUI on my desire z and it may be a long wait before we see it on the atrix but i hope it happens!!

All this talk about CM7...what about MIUI?

Of course, I'm not asking for any ETAs or anything. But I've seen rumors of official CM teams working on the Atrix, that one guy in our Dev forum claiming to port it, other teams porting, blah blah. But I haven't heard so much as a rumor as to whether anyone at all is working on MIUI? THAT is a ROM I would love to try (never used custom ROMs as Atrix is my first Android). I heard some people got donations together to get a new Atrix to send to the CM people, but did anything of the sort happen for MIUI? Just curious is all.
MIUI is based on CM7 so we should first wait for a CM7 port before we can see a MIUI Rom for the Atrix

Ahh I see how that works then. Sweet, thanks for the clarification; I didn't know one was based off the other.

They could have used the RC for CM7 as a default build and then made a MIUI port instead of working directly on a fu CM7 ROM. I know the RC has been claimed to work on dual-core phones and I think SGSII was listed there.

Development for miui and cm7 should pick up once the photon drops. Its basically the atrix on sprint....So stuff for that will be ported over easily, this is information i received from the devs over at miui.us

I don't see why they don't develop these ROMs on the Atrix and then port them over to the Photon when it's ready (assuming it'll have the unlocked bootloader)... Doing that the other way around makes no sense but ah well, can't complain about devs' timeframes.

Motorola has officially said the Photon will come locked down. MIUI.us must not know what's going on or it's going on old rumors.

Alright, that's what I thought. I remember the rumors but then I remember seeing that it WOULD be locked in the end.
But yeah, I can't think of any good reason why the MIUI (or CM, I guess) devs should not start working on the Atrix RIGHT NOW. It's completely unlocked and ready to go and isn't like TOTALLY inferior to the Photon or anything.

Photon Source

Isn't this what we've been waiting for? http://sourceforge.net/projects/photon4g.motorola/files/PHOTON-4G/4.5.1A-1_SUN-154/
Bingo!!!!!
EDIT: Let the games begin!
FYI - Note from Rami Levy:
Anthony and Bill, we have released the Photon 4G OSS code. Please refer to https://sourceforge.net/motorola/photon4g for details, discussion forums, and downloads. Thank you for your patience!

I cant wait to see what's going on with all the development this will bring! I really have looking for a reason to get back into some light dev/theme work, even if it is just UI tweaks here and there. Let's get it on!

Don't know how soon but, the Atrix has cm7 coming along nicely. With this it shouldn't take long for us to get it. And once we have an aosp kernel Miui won't be far behind.

I saw that. Verizon needs to hurry up and release the Bionic. They have more subscribers, so they should have more development. It can only help. Sept. 8 I believe.

yeah, hell!!! ICS sdk is out!!!
But ...
as i've seen in the API changelog, its a long way to get all things work again.
a lot of changes in hardware code, lot of changes in UI code ... this means we have
to create a lot of workarounds again for our P500 device
and, the big question is:
can we use the user space drivers from gingerbread as we was doing this in ginger when porting from froyo??? questions over questions ...

I was doing some research into porting it and got some good feedback/suggestions here, but until I actually get an amaze in my hands to play with I won't share the miui rom I've been trying to work on.. I was buying one on xda, but that didn't work out so I am looking on ebay/craigslist
I've been playing phone tag with a guy on craigslist all morning about buying his amaze, but he seems a little sketchy.. if you are a little tech savvy you could definitely take the advice from that thread above and build on top of the miui for sensation with some of the stock files, watch the logcat, and maybe get a mostly functional rom..
BUMP!!! hopefully one day someone will take up the mantle and get us this! me and mike really need this LOL

miui is aosp, with a twist
In order to have MIUI stable we'd need to have CyanogenMod stable first. Miui relies on the CM source.

100% Correct. Although i thought X was working on an AOSP ICS rom...either way, i know X will make our dreams come true
X is working on an aosp rom based on a different set of sources than CM9.
