MIUI General FAQ
Q: How do I root this?
A: Enable root in the perm manager, which can be found in the security folder.
Q: Why is G-Apps not listed for Download?
A: Too Bloaty, add a Google account and install the play store as an APK, I suggest using Aptoide to find it.
Q: 4G LTE isn't working
A: Load the Phone, dial *#*#4636#*#*, goto Phone information, Set preferred network type to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL).
Q: Help! Phone/SystemUI/Keyboard Isn't working/Is Force Closing!
A: Make sure to do a completely clean wipe, also I'm not sure how well this will work if flashed in CWM.
Q: The Browser looks terrible.
A: Settings -> Advanced -> User agent string -> MiOne (It Renders much better & more naturally!)
Q: My Filesystems won't mount/My PC can't see my device/My phone won't act as a MTP/USB Mounting isn't working!
A: Settings -> Developer Options -> Enable Development / USB Debugging (switch both to on)

Hi everyone, I'm Tquetski; mostly active on en.miui
give me a few days to get this all in order, source build takes many hours and I'm forking MIUI to the whole device tree so..

---

Question...you're saying building from source? You have access to MIUI source? How does one go about getting access to that?

I'm building CM from source then using PatchROM to apply it, you can find PatchROM at the MiCode Github.
I wrote a bit about PatchROM here:
http://en.miui.com/thread-6395-1-1.html
I've wrote about it a bit for folks curious. I've already completed Patch-related preps and intend to fork across all devices I built for using:

Ok. That makes a bit more sense. I used to port miui for this device back in the miui.us days....that site's been pretty dead since May.
If u need source, I have my git pretty up to date on cm10.1

No need, I have my own source with edits to accommodate this ROM; It'll be done tomorrow.
It's not that I'm lazy just swamped, I have over 20 devices and growing under my belt :S

I can test anything if needed

Completeness
How complete is this rom? Is the graphics still borked? Are there any other problems/issues with the rom, like many other JB roms? I want to use JB as a daily but I need working graphics. Also your screenshot says "Verizon Wireless", is that a screenshot from another phone or from the photon? I would like to find out how to get Verizon working on my phone and working 3G.

It's from my phone but the project shares identical code so it's relevant; anyway I have to mess around with my base to fix the tearing issue present so this is why other devices have gotten this but this one hasn't, I don't want to have to redo work yet

overscan HDMI mirroring
Does HDMI mirroring works well?
Does settings menu has 'HDMI' item with Overscan option as 2.3.4 has?
It will be very good if adding patch for JB add overscan function at this ROM is possible.
