As a forum member of MIUI for the HTC Evo, I just received a e-mail that states a member of the MIUI development team has received a Photon to try and port the MIUI Rom to it. In my personal opinion, this is effin awesome. Anyone that has used MIUI, it is a very impressive Rom, and to know that one day it will be on the Motorola Photon...big things will be happening!!!
Cool, if he can get a bootable kernel, then we can have CM7 as well!

This is amazing news! Slowly but surely, our diamond-in-the-rough phone is going places! Kernel is getting close, just a little more time.
MIUI is great
Ya really love Miui although never had a phone with fully functional Miui.

warttack is teh dev who got it, but he seems to be banned from miui.us.. not sure on what the story is on all that, regardless i know id certainly love some help from him
If miui cames with 4G that will be great other wise CM is fantastic rom

I do hope things work out. One of the things that I really likes about both the MIUI and CM7 was the theme launcher. being able to change the theme of your phone in a matter or seconds and not have to flash is awesome. Even though I am going through some serious flashing withdraw, I must say, the Photon is a really quick, efficient, and over all great phone fresh out the box. Can it really get any better??? (I'msure it will)

ill tell you what, ill make 7 new accounts and post themed versions of the roms we have now.. then everyone can quit crying about the lack of development..
sgs2 forums they have a BUNCH of stock based roms
that boild down to this.. deodex'd, zipaligned... and bloat removed.. atda! lol the evo please how many cm7 based roms do they they still have popping up every day?
^.^ amen, I've flashed three great roms, three great themes and all kinda tweaks on my photon in less than two months time.
Thanks photon devs.....
And now we have this

well said...when I was on the Evo forum there were five variations of the same style Rom with small differences...not dissing the devs at all...they all did great work....it really narrowed down to 3 types...CM7,MIUI, or a sense style Rom...MIUI was my favorite...I believe the Photon is to dope of a phone to be ignored... I'm positive Roms will be created and the haters will just be haters...

I'm not asking for CM9 but just a 100% stock AOSP 4.0 Rom. I know there maybe issues due to HTC not releasing 100% of the Source code for Amaze with the WiFi Drivers left out though...
But just a stock rooted 4.0 Rom. No sense [email protected] included.

I couldn't agree more, don't really understand why work continues on Gingerbread. With the release of ICS Roms, it will be as quickly forgotten as Froyo.
Hoou , froyo is still not forgotten about . My #PNoc ROM for my other phone is running on froyo because we never got a GB update , I love the amaze build that's the only reason I'm keeping It I hate sense

If you could go to a newer release you would and never look back.
I'm buying a new battery today hopefully for the amaze , i miss it so much .
Thank you XBoarder for your efforts.
I have to say I dont know whats involved (wish I did) in terms of whats needed but Im not sure why development wouldnt fully be dedicated to 4.0.
Im assuming its because you are alone and it may be wiser to let the CM team go at it then base a ROM off that way ?
Regardless glad youre around.

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.

I know we don't have any ICS kernel sources yet but do you think we will get ICS before this August?
I thought I read somewhere that we were getting it in the next month or two. I would assume we would have a good working ICS port at the least in the next month or two. Can't speak for the devs here, but I thought that's what we were looking at. As for when ATT will push it out, that could be forever...I hate how long they take, but oh well.

Having used ICS on the captivate, it truly is an update worth switching devices for. However, I'm pretty happy with the I777 so I will just wait. Android updates that were actually really good: Froyo, Honeycomb, and ICS. The rest were just hyped too damn much and gingerbread is the worst of all of them (imho).
Wow. Use the sticky thread.

For one, it's not just ICS when Jellybean comes out, you're going to get it much quicker than anyone else. And also, it's the purest form of the Android version minus any bloatware each manufacturer puts on the phone, which can be either a pro or a con, but overall, the bloatware has been a con in the past.
IMO, Gingerbread was a very good update, Froyo didn't seem that special when I finally got it for my S7. The biggest improvement was non-broken radio firmware, which had nothing to do with Android version.
Gingerbread had significant power management improvements.

I love and appreciate all the work that the Devs have done for our phone, but if we don't get ICS soon I will be leaving this phone. A lot of my friends have phones with ICS roms and it is such a improvement over GB. I don't understand how one and two year old phones have ICS and Samsung won't allow us to have it. It is ridiculous.

What the hell is your problem? Name one phone other than the Nexus line that has received ICS officially.
HTC hasn't released any updates yet.
Motorola hasn't released any updates yet.
Sony has only released betas (I applaud them for putting out prereleases)
Asus has only pushed it to one tablet (easier to port HC tablets due to HC being a newer codebase and not having to deal with the RIL) and that was an utter disaster
So far, my experience with ICS is that it's not an improvement over Gingerbread. I haven't been able to see any significant positive improvement - some parts of the UI are a bit shinier, but the gapps user interface is clunker than it was in GB. ICS has some good improvements on tablets, but for phones - not so nice.

First of all I said that I APPRECIATE the devs!!!! And I never said that the roms were official. Almost all HTC and LG phones have ICS roms. I left t-mobile with the htc sensation and believe me that phone runs 300% better now that it is running ICS. And by the way Entropy it is no disrespect to any dev by what I said, I am rocking your Kernel right now (Excellent job). I am pissed at Samsung and them only. Our phone is supposed to be a flagship phone so what the hell is the holdup?
If you can't wait then just go get the G Nexus. These questions have been brought up and beaten to death. Just don't be surprised when Ics finally drops for our device and our Roms are superior than most. GS2 surely has the hardware to run prety much anything smoothly and dev community is strong here

Well good to know I made a good decision about the Razr M. That was the other device I was considering but matching it up spec-wise with the Inc4g..
just seemed like Inc4g was the better device for the form factor.
No other device seemed to compare and I decided not to wait for the Galaxy S4 Mini.

Don't get me wrong. The M is a great device. I just cannot get into Motorola. The UI lags like crazy. It is extremely difficult to transfer thing from internal to external memory. Also that gorilla glass screen scratched way to easy. My first day I scratched the screen while it was in my pocket.
