[Q] Is MIUI coming to Aria?

Anyone know if Miui will be coming to the Aria?

I wouldn't think so. It seems to be an HDPI rom. I don't know if I would like it on the Aria tho. I've messed with it a bit on the N1 and my buddy ditched it for CM, its a major battery and resource hog.

Thanks for the reply, it does look like a battery hog, but I hope that they keep making ROMs for the Aria. I had no idea what a solid little phone this thing is.

Please can someone port miui

This was brought up in another thread; it's a Desire HD ROM that that guy posted in an Aria section.

I'm guessing there's no development on this for the Liberty/Aria??

no.
<space filler>

I'm guessing our Aria is way underpowered to run the MIUI ROM.

From my understanding miui requires a armv7 processor at this time.

The guys in the hero forum are working on porting it, but it seems like the thread is at a standstill until an experienced dev picks it up.

By the time they make a usuable "port", your phone upgrade will be here.

I haven't had a contract in years. Personally, I prefer to stay off-contract, as I can't afford AT&T rate plans. If I want a new phone, I buy it outright.

Would it be possible to port motoblur rom to the aria

To be honest why would you want to do that for? But too answer your question I think maybe some of it could be like the widgets but I'm not sure about the rest

You may have read that, but it is not true. There is a lot of effort involved in porting a user interface line Motrblur or Sense from one platform to another. In most cases the UI is not open source and without the source code it is very complicated and some times impossible.

ok thank you thats the type of advice i need.. cause just need to figure out the specs and if its even possible....

i just read all the specs on the motorola back flip and they are practically the same as the aria the just a slower processor ..... n the led flash..

like tpbklake just said... Motoblur sits on top of android and it is most likely not open source, and will be difficult (near impossible?) to port over. I'm no expert, but in any situation the specs really shouldn't matter. FYI (for your information) you can get a backflip on ebay for under $100 if youre that desperate to have motoblur.

Y do i have to be disperate.. just a reg guy tryin to add to the dev of the aria.. is everyone on the site out to disrespect people tryin to learn wat they no.. wtf thanks for ur input anyway dude

Now, THIS phone has nearly identical specs to the Aria. I'd try to find a ROM from this and go from there. If you're brave enough, flash it! But I'd recommend rooting your phone and having clockword mod installed with a working nandroid backup first.

http://boston-mania.blogspot.com/2010/10/cyanogenmod-6-android-221-for-boston.html

ok thanks for ur help i will try to flash some roms today and give a respond as to how it goes with the name and download links of whateva roms i try...

This is just my opinion, but if you have an Aria now, I wouldn't even bother with MotoBlur. The user integration is hands down rather horrible. Plus, like many said in here, integrating that into a rom for this phone would be a dev nightmare.
MotoBlur is a custom skin by Motorola, and the source is probably locked down! It would take a lot of time...

htc desire hd has got the sensation rom port:
http://phandroid.com/2011/04/15/desire-hd-gets-sensation-rom-port/
now i guess it becomes more easy to port to n1.

it consists of lots of new widgets ,icons and animations specially.....
and its gingerbread......
lets see how much time it takes for the porting of sensation rom to nexus one.
guys inform the great developers out there to have a look...

:-D
great...
I hope someone can port it to our n1

Here's an easier download, the chinese one isn't the easiest to navigate.

Sorrry, but do you think this will be ported? No dev has been found to port desire s Rom entirely. This is a dead child in think...

i think this sense ui is better than ios in animations.....
so miui loving ppl might also consider this in addition to sense lovers....

I hope this one catches fire. I have been dying waiting for a solid Gingerbread + Sense build.

I'll try to get it booting tomorrow, just for the sake of seeing that beautiful lookscreen of Sense 3.0 in action.
I'll post my results.

i love my nexus as much as anyone, but folks, it's time to get a new phone if you want dev results. nobody cares about it now, and with the sensation, g2x ,etc coming out, it's going to be further in the dust. i may keep it just as a token of the first great android phone, or i may sell it, but the sensation is my next phone.
this rom dump is f'n HUGE lol look at that file size, i don't think it could ever make it onto the n1, and if it did it'd probably be slow as dirt.

nice to hear that,great job

as far as i know. they didnt even port the old htc sense. you want them to port the new one ?
yeah i dont think so. they will port it to desire hd or hd2 or whatever htc device. but i highly doubt you will see it on galaxy S or Nexus S since they are made by samsung.
i could be wrong. but i dont see it happening. at least not any time soon.
besides. isnt getting htc sense or any launcher defeats the purpose of owning a nexus S ? people bought it for pure google expieriance. if you didnt buy your nexus S for that reason then you made the wrong choice of a phone

Actually sense is already ported to the NS. Where have you been? Isn't the NS a dev phone? Isn't Android open source? What's wrong with variety? You act like if SENSE, TOUCHWIZ or Blur roms are ported you wouldn't try it. If you don't like SENSE then you shouldn't of opened my post. Its not like the title didn't speak for itself. Thanks.

I agree with the pure google experience part but honestly, if somebody puts their efforts into porting sense and creating another rom for the development section.
I don't see the harm of having another rom. Ns dev needs more roms. If you don't like it, don't use it. Android is filled with open customization.

Thank you for this statement. We need more variety! What's wrong with choices? People change their minds all the time. We all know we would at least try a sense, touchwiz, etc port if it became available. That doesn't mean we would use it as a daily driver, but its nice to know if you want a different rom one week or the next you can switch.

I'd love to have it, with the recent reports showing the horsepower that it have coupled with Sense 3.0 that would be the perfect phone to have

If people want the HTC Sense experience then they should look at a HTC Phone. Although a Port is possible, its very time consuming and by the time someone actually port's it over with all the drivers working, your device will be close to the yearly refresh and you will want the next best thing. This will leave the developer in a limbo where his efforts didnt truly pay off.

It's not possible, Galaxy S is half baked, Nexus S also try, half baked. Samsung uses totally different structure on android Nexus S can't even port TouchWiz and its the same manufacturer. I would love to get S II spec wise it blows the Sensation out.

Id say its all about taste. Personally I think motorola's UI is the worst, followed closely by the apple wannabe touchwiz. Funny, I actually hated sense as well at first, but now that im using it for a while, I LOVE IT.
Also, its because htc has added soooo much functionality, like finding/wiping/ringing from anywhere(laptop) incase its lost, or stolen, etc. Plus auto-backup of messages, apprx 100 very useful widgets, plus may apps wich save you a lot of time if you had to download one by one. Basically, its a complete package that looks good and offers functionality that no other manufacturer can even come close to, especially being built in from start. no headaches. I myself wish it could be ported but I doubt, especially with how "involved" its gotten lately

I had a Galaxy S, then Atrix and now Inspire. Next I'm buying Galaxy S II because the bootlogger is unlocked and I want the light weight, dual core processor power and video enhancements.
The Inspire is amazing. I like it far better than the Atrix because I can put custom roms on it. I was able to root the Atrix and do a few modifications but it was very limited. I strongly recommend the Inspire.
The Sensation is locked down as is the Atrix. If you want a good out of the box phone Atrix is as good as you get until the Galaxy S II arrives. Sensation will be great but probably about the same as the Galaxy S II.
It is hard to recommend a phone without knowing what you do with your phone. For me the unlocked boot logger is the difference between buying and not buying.

Personally I prefer Sense.I think that Samsung have basically copied the iPhone in design and UI. If someone could remove the native Samsung bloat and add sense, all would be good in the world(for me at least)

Sent from my RafDroidHD using Tapatalk

I think we can. If enough people that have bought a SGS2 ask for sense then I am sure someone(developer) will be willing to design it for SGS2. From what I have seen of custom roms so far, I think that there are some more than capable developers out there that could do it. If I could write code I definitely would(perhaps I should start learning. The only question is can an old dog(me) learn new tricks?????)
