MIUI Launcher - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
Has anyone else installed this launcher and found it to be a little sluggish on their s2?
Otherwise it is a great launcher!

Indeed. If you want a smooth MIUI-launcher you have to flash a MIUI-rom Cause even with updates it stays laggy etc.

Rom recommendations?

Hello all, I'm new around here but no stranger to the galaxy tab & gt i9000 forums. I've flashed many roms and love every minute of it
I lost my original galaxy s last week but luckily my insurance covered it. The company didn't have any in stock, so i was automatically upgraded to the S II, which I received today. RESULT!
Anyways, the development section is HUGE here so i was wondering whether anyone could recommend a rom or two to try out. I upgraded manually to 2.3.5 (XWKI8) and I'm rooted
I'm after something fairly close to stock. And by this I mean Samsung stock, I like all their apps etc! But also as themable as possible. On the original galaxy s I was a big fan of darky's rom & also used cm7 as well as a few others. I'm using overcome on my tab and looking forward to trying their rom when it's released...
Any pointers would be really helpful *finger Hoovers over thanks button*

Try revolution rom . this is a base rom and very expandable with the kitchen app. You won't regret it.

agree,it's a great rom!
revolution rom with speedmod t41 kernel, _ _ _ king great.
Jkays themes and mods can be used on rooted stock Samsung roms.
Check the theme section for themes that can be used with odexed firmware.

Thanks all, I'm out & about at the mo but will investigate later. I'll also have to investigate the kitchen app...

Hey guys, so I upgraded to revolution and really like it just one prob- the different mods work well but the status bar and battery mods aren't working for me. Tried wiping cache and dalvik but remains as stock :-( so I'll need to investigate further. But besides that my quadrant is through the roof! Thanks!

Samsung galax ys2 touchability problem

I have a problem with my samsung galaxy s 2 touch screen . I find a lag when i swipe between pages on homescreen not just lag the icons kinda seem vibrating when i do so. But everything is fine when i play games. This has really pissed me off . I had once found a solution similar to my problem in this forum and a solution but that did not help me. I hope you can help me and pray this is not a hardware effect.
I am using the latest ICS. This problem was there when i used its earlier versions. I have tried customs roms like villainrom and miui as well . but the problems persisted.

Go back to ginger bread (MIUI is really great) if you want the best touch sensitivity.. samsung's ics roms have touch sensitivity problems.

That's what I was thinking too actually. But what is the most recent GB MIUI ROM for GSII? Seems like 2.3.30 isn't for this phone...
Guys read the op.. he already tried GB (Villain Rom)

I have tried using miui and in fact changed to ics from gingerbread because of this problem. with miui the problem was a bit less but still frustrating enough and now i am back to ICS with siyah kernel and also did some settings change from its tweak app. but nthng improved.

Lag? Not for me.. even real racing 2 doesn't lag one bit and it's quite hardware intensive. I have a feeling asphalt will work.

Yeah.. Strange though.
I gave the same apk and sd data to a friend of mine running gb on an even lower end phone and it worked with low textures
I really hope I have better luck with asphalt :/
Has anyone tried it on fuzz's rom for a Green lens defy?

If you mean the cm7 I'm on it, if you mean cm7 it's terrible for games so I don't have high hopes

He had a different phone...
Overall I think CM9 handles games better but for some reason I find cut scenes run better on cm7. For instance the opening video of spiderman ran smoothly on cm7 but lagged a bit in CM9

Replacing The Stock Dialer

Hello everyone, i was wondering if it's possible to replace the default stock dialer with the original android dialer like the one in cm9 because to be honest the dialer has always been a problem for me ever since my Xperia Arc, for the life of me i really can't understand how Sony with all it's awesomness can't make a fast dialer, it's so slow sometimes it's embarrassing and at the moment i feel like reverting back to stock from cm9 even though i love cm9 but it still lacks some important features to me, and it does not make sense to use a different firmware just because i can't get the stock Sony dialer not to lag.

Which Rom for me?

Which Rom do you suggest i use? I enjoy touchwiz launcher. It looks great, i also like a phone with great battery life and speed. I do not game much. I usually text and whatsapp etc. Which Rom do you think is best for my preferences? I have been thinking about MindCr 2.8 and Simplicity V5 with S2/3 theme with "iamareebjamal"s S3 ripple mod. I have tried both and still don't know. So which one do you fellow xda'ers suggest for me?
Sent from a green screen Nokia 100
been using simplicity v5. as for launcher, using holo. much better than touchwiz. Can have own number of icons on the app drawer (use 5x5) plus fit more along the dock, hide apps I don't use, and use folders. Go Launcher EX is good too.
Holo launcher has good features but i do not like its looks. I only like touchwiz icons. Maybe if i tried modding holo launcher to make it look like touchwiz, but it requires effort, and personally i am very lazy.

No Temple Run yet for us.
Well try some ROMs. You will surely like a ROM.

Try searching Temple Run Armv6 on Google. But they will all have pixel glitch. If you can fix it then good for you. People are also posting lag free Subway Surfers armv6 on Ace Themes and Apps section.
