Try it. You will be blown away. Videos On youtube do it no justice.
Latest version, and official ROM is so good. Why don't you guys try it

Shouldn't this be in the general forum if you're not actually developing it?

Yeah Im just posting the news. Never been to the general forum part sorry and I didnt know.
Just wanted to fill people in!
So yes it should be moved to the SGS2 General forum

The link to the ROM you posted was from July 9th...
Anyways, moving this to General.

The link is to the miuiandroid build, from the 21st, and that is not official?? I don't believe they are releasing the official until another 2 hours or so?

I used to wonder the same myself. To me it just looked like Android with an iPhone interface.
However I tried it and found things like...
toggles in the notification screen (configurable)
battery stats that go into a LOT of detail (configurable)
full skinning that allows you to mix and match theme elements on the fly (configurable)
built in call/sms firewall (configurable)
built in application security w/password (configurable)
They're just off the top of my head. There's so much more that it does above and beyond regular Android. Other than the configurable toggles in the notification screen (swipe left/right from notifications to get to a full screen of toggles) I've not seen anything that you can't do with apps, but it's all there and all works together.
Also, in my opinion it has the best browser available for Android.
There's more, but I guess you're getting that it's very configurable

this is the link to the download. but MIUI said on their fb they are uploading one by one and as of now the rom for s2 is still not up... =) fortunately i know a bit of chinese.

its been there since coupla weeks if am not wrong. and yeah they have weekly releases.
as far the MIUI port and builds out for SGS2 , I have tried a few and the general thing is battery life is not as good as sammy ROMs, battery stats are totally wrong (its a known issue). FM and Bluetooth work now.

You just got thanked! (accidentally)
The official rom is being released as we speak on the Chinese miui website... But that's in Chinese so we will all have to wait a day or 2 until miuiandroid translate it into english... But yes this is official support, and hopefully fixes alot compared to the .21 release...

The webiste is showing the S2 development rom for download. Only problem is, it doesnt give any info on installing this rom!
Does it have to be flashed via Odin?
ZIP placed on SD and Installed via CWM?
Do we Wipe any of the cache's?
Is data stored or everything deleted?
Anybody got the answer to these questions?

Eye opener thread MIUI have you tried it??

Now I have flashed every rom that can be flashed since flashing for the epic has started and I must say I feel like an idiot never having flashed MIUI ROM... So sunday I flashed it and I must say there is so many fantastic things about it. the breakdown in battery use through the use of its own built in settings!
from launcher customization and speed again through its own settings... there is a lot more id like to discuss I think you should try it for yourself!
check out the youtube vids for yourself if you don't believe me! it has soo much potential in its current ALPHA state for our epics........
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952615
I think we should all try MIUI I think development is slowing down in general and not just in MIUI... for all epic roms I miss the constant checking everyday and not being dissapointed cause no update was posted on my current rom or others for that matter
I think the MIUI thread is dieing and well I am a new user to MIUI and I wish another dev could help out it is a fantastic ROM and even with the call bug from the CM6-7 bug where speaker needs to be toggled and the incoming call need to wait like 3 rings before you can pick it up I am sure with a little work these bugs can be fixed. I also wish colorize widget worked with MIUI I guess what I am asking for is for those of you who haven't tried MIUI try it and show your support by reporting bugs on the page for the DEV's
I never gave MIUI the light of day till sunday and by the way I am happy I did battery also is great with MIUI and TWS BUG IS NOT THERE! 2 days standby time in my house and 5% TWS

DUAL BOOT KERNEL FLASH AFTER FLASHING MIUI ROM
http://www.multiupload.com/GTUOUQFMNC
+1! I had tried every other rom except MIUI, untill yesterday. I do have to say though it sure is amazing! I'm not too in love with the launcher & no app drawer, so I'm using lpp, but other then that and a couple bugs, the rom is great! The look and feel is awesome.
I think the reason people aren't trying it as much, is because the thread isn't being updated with a changelog and what not, normal users may look at the title and see last time it was updated was on the 24th of feb (I believe). I know that's a reason I didn't even look in the thread until yesterday, turns out there is someone else workin on it and posting updates on it. You guys should go check it out.

Thanks for trying! The things that dont work are:
Bluetooth
MMS
screen take 3 rings to turn on when receiving a call.
4g
See anything you dont like let us know...Btw i dont know why MIUI-DEV is down but our thread has been down almost an hour...
miui on superAMoLED screen! can't wait for a stable version! I use 4g often these days ever since sprint decided to put a tower in detroit. but when i'm done with school i'll be back home with no 4g, so i'll give it a run then. I hope MMS and bluetooth can be fixed. i'm more sicked for this rom than GB.

I was wondering what it was also and came across this site
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-miui-rom-for-android-miui-port-complete-guide/
Nixo31, I am confused here. I know ahmgsk has been working on MIUI, and you are also. Are you guys working on it together? If not I think you guys should, also maybe ask him if you could take OP of MIUI thread in development until he becomes less busy, Like I stated before, reason people is not giving this a try as much is because the thread is not updated. I think once people seen it was being updated and worked on they would try it more!
Just a thought..

Ok, thx
So, what the point of this thread?
well I guess theres some conflict here but as long as the Rom works and everyone that was involved gets a mention I'm happy. Surley thats the main thing right give everyone what they want, anyway thats enough from me, happy new year to you guys its there if you want it
Does the ROM work fine?
Any nitz and RIL issues?
All this slating of airbus360. However if anyone bothers to try his rom, it is much better. I've been using cm9 since the first alpha up to the most recent release. It was good, but not a patch on this. Airbus's rom is much smoother, especially when flicking between home screens. Its also a lot faster. So although he may have used Teamhacksung code, he's obviously incorporated a few improvements of his own. Before anyone criticises, they should install it. It's a step up from the current cm9 builds.

This is exactly the same as CM9, except it's not using CM9 launcher and quick toggles in status bar.
So, is this rom fully working? What remains to be fixed?
This is not a development thread, there is no development going on. So, moving this to general.

This is my whole point, if you bothered to install this, you would realise it is not the same as cm9. Don't listen to others and try it yourself. Its much smoother and faster

Noon Question. How to install this so called beta version. Help pls.....
Been using this since last night.
Basically, looks the same as CM9 minus a few modifications, yet the ROM is a lot smoother then CM9.
Battery for me is great, roughly 1% loss an hour. Removed all uneeded apps via Titanium Backup.
Ive noticed one slight problem with the incoming call screen, icons misplaced. BUT, Still can be used.
I've had No FC's either.
I do really reccomend this ROM

Lidroid ICS Rom 4.0.3

Hello,
Just wanted to say my impression on Lidroid ICS ROM. I have been using almost all LPB based Roms lately. The only one that stayed longer was MODGalaxy, which is a clean stock Samsung LPB Rom.
Having read about Lidroid dev here and his mods, I read that he issues his Rom based on ICS too in his forum. So I gave it a try. Apart of some apps in Chinese language, a nice keyboard but unfortunately for Chinese language, I am really impressed for its smoothness. The rom has 14 icon mod, percentage battery, Lockapp, Root Explorer and other goodness by default.
I have removed some of the local apps with Root Explorer and inserted an ICS keyboard. Now everything runs good for me.
I am trying today and just wanted to say to brave hearts to give it a try too. You will be impressed I think or hope...

Another first impressions thread... Maybe someone should start a second impressions thread?
Come on guys. I just wanted to let you know about a Rom that is not available in this forum. This post was not about my impressions but mostly about knowing and trying a Rom outside of XDA.
Or maybe I could say my last impressions about this thread before it gets closed?

Unofficially Official Rom

OK I have been reading threads in this forums and I'm sorta lost and annoyed. I read a thread saying that an official update for ICS can brick your phone so you need to do a full reset or something like that. I am confused as to why an official release 'might brick your phone' and I 'should proceed with cautions'. An official release of any OS should be stable and shouldn't cause such issues right?
I am pretty upset that ICS is still yet released for Galaxy Note, not talking about the prototype but the full software and still with the prototype it is 'risky' to update. Honestly I don't bother with custom OS, I prefer official releases and just have it rooted but now I am looking towards 'PARANOIDANDROID' rom, though I haven't flashed it because I'm waiting for it to be updated (so it can play MP4 and other stuff) but still its released faster than the official full ICS and has several features the android people should have added in the begining that are not added to ics. (Only one thing is PA doesn't have SNOTE which is kinda essential to the phone and I don't think the devs will add it) So because of this I also find it really dumb that our warranty is voided if we flash a custom firmware.
I am really confused as to what is happening and am I wrong at some part, can some one explain and post your thoughts about this topic. My point of this thread is just to ask about the 'may brick your phone' part and to see what you guys think about this entire thing with android and their prototypes instead of official releases and cfw. I truely blame android's (or samsung) latesness in releasing the OS for people opting for custom roms than sticking to the official ones. Android really has so much potential since it is 'open' unlike iOS but they are not bringing their A game to the table.

I don't understand the whole thing but it's really scary and i'm now afraid to flash a CFW and i really wanna avoid bricking my phone. Can someone explain it more clearly, from what I understand if we flashed ICS leaks and flash back from recoveries we are bound to have issues??? Am i wrong, can someone explain??
AFAIK.... paranoid rom is cm9 based which is perfectly safe... so worth taking a shot...
Im on paranoid rom too... working great... going to try the updated version tonight
we are on the same page mate...
i prefer stock + root/cwm.... i really dont bother with custom rom...
and this bug is the biggest troll on gnote
thank you kvsandeepreddy for clearing up my doubts, I flashed v1 of PA but lacked a few stuff and am so glad to see v2, but I doubt you can play mp4 files on the stock video player as android needs to release their source code and I really need that feature and hate other players, but anyway hope they would fix it all soon and port SNOTE (which I don't think they will but I keep saying it)
musashiro, I suspect you are still on GB like me and honestly I don't think it's worth it waiting for Samsung to release ICS, first they don't have an exact date for the full release and even if they did release a full update now, PARANOIDANDROID has soo many features that ICS lacks and won't be added.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1662802
You can check this page out, it is the ROM, it's super cool and it's screen shots looks promising, also PA has both tablet and phone mode. I find it hypocritical when Samsung promoted the NOTE as a 'Phone? Table?' and force us with a phone mode indirectly making it a phone and making us the same as other normal phone owners when we clearly aren't. So PA sorta fixes it and gives us both phone and tablet mode making it truly a 'Phone? Table?' allowing us to chose which mode we want.

Mate for playing videos use mxplayer app from play store.... i ve been using this player from my first day... i dont even remember using the stock player.... controls are easy too...
And regarding the s pen and others it is not possible because they work only in touchwiz framework and the pa rom is based on cm9 which has nothing to do with samsung.... u can try an app called papyrus beta whic is far better than snote....
Personally i hate the official ics and dint even use it for a day...

I already currently use mxplayer, but I use it to only play .mov videos that I take using my iPad or iPod that I keep on my phone (home movies). I prefer the stock one as it has options for proper resize of videos and looks nice without ads. But thanks anyway for the suggestion and I will checkout papyrus, just hope that at least papyrus allows for proper backup, hope I enjoy PA just as much as you do (you seem like your having the time of your life with it)

Check that link.... but i dont advise u to flash now that because it is based on lp6 kernel which is easily brickable... but u are safe until u wipe in cmw.... neobuddy(stunner rom creator) is building a new rom as we speak.....

It's OK but from screen shots PA looks much more enticing than the stunner and since additionally you advised not to flash it now I will just stick to PA but Supernote looks cool, there is always something in every ROM that I want.... if only there was an ultimate ROM with everything.

Yea I guess your right, hard to please everyone. The entire aosp and aokp and others really confuse me but honestly from what I have seen so far, (alot of YouTube demos of roms) PA looks the best and the PAD on it is a big deal but I decided not to flash v0.2 yet and wait for some more updates as people are commenting on issues with battery and something about SD and internal cards being switched or something and other issues. I really want that rom but the issues people comment about are pretty crucial to be fixed especially battery so I guess I'll just wait for a more stable update. Is it wrong to say v1.0 is a real release and 0.2 is still beta??

Hi, me too! It's great to see people still using and especially supporting this phone. I've used Cyanogenmod from the official site for a while and have been testing out different roms on here. It's fun!
Edit: Still figuring out the forums, ha.

Welcome! I assume you mean that you used to use CM back when they used to support us, correct? Because they don't do official builds for us anymore...

Yeah, too bad. I used 10.1.3 I think it was for a while. Over the last month or so I've tried a few out here on the boards. The unofficial CM11 is really nice but eats my battery away. I was using one from August, then upgraded last week to the October one and it was much bugier. Right now I'm using SlimKat... I think I like CM better overall but SlimKat is really nice. I've run into a few bugs, the Menu/Home/Back/Search buttons won't light on notification. That's the one feature that seems not to work that I really miss.. But SlimKat is nice enough and gives me twice the battery life as the unofficial CM11.

Ooh, I didn't know anyone was going to do a Lollipop ROM. That's exciting, thanks! Also never heard of CyanFox, I'll have to check that out. I really hope there's a SlimPop (or whatever they call it) ROM for our phone... I'm really loving the performance and battery life on this.
Also, if anyone could help me out... what effect battery life? Is it mostly the apps and base system, or can the kernel itself be a big part of it?
