    [rom]-- Smiui Rom -- Ultimate Custom Rom --[multilang,stable/weekly]

    I am coming from a 4.4 kitkat ROM and must say that mostly the V7 ROM works nice but there is an incredible delay in notifications. I got an WhatsApp message 4 hours later, mails (gmail) takes about 15 minutes to popup or even more. Is this behaviour that can be optimized in SMUI? I've tried to...

    How do I check if a phone has a merged partition or not?

    [rom]-- Smiui Rom -- Ultimate Custom Rom --[multilang,stable/weekly]

    Sofar I have installed the latest stable MIUI. Then I installed the recovery, TWRP. Now I have tried to do a miikaa unified_single update on the partitions, but MiFlash is not cooperating. It cannot find the correct scripts and it cries about flash_all.bat. So, I tried copying over the smui .zip...

    So it's time for me to get with the program. I am on sMUI 5.something with the old partitioning scheme and have CWM based recovery v6.0.5.0 on my phone. I'd like to move to a single partioning scheme with lots of room for apps (as I am running into problems with storage space when installing...

    So what's the stability state of the latest ROM(s)? I am still on 5.3.27 which was the latest SMUI with the old partitioning scheme. Lately fitness apps are crashing on me, especially when different audio sources want to send messages (Endomondo wants to send an audio update on my workout while...

    I've read that the stack was updated from a rather difficult Bluez based implementation to a more Android supporting version. While Bluez had an unnecessary complicated structure, the new version does not. Then again, the bugs that were filed over one year are a factor 10 over those of Bluez...

    Ah, I thought it was pretty obvious in this thread: Mi2s. I am not sure about your answer: Bluetooth doesn't work where? In Android L for mi2s? And do all things not work? Or parts?

    How's the bluetooth stack on Android L? I used MIUI 4.5.12 (or something close to may 2014) with Android 4.1 and it worked fine with my car (2014 Skoda) uploading contacts nicely with pictures. This disappeared in SMUI 5.3.27 on 4.4. I am curious if anybody has experience with bluetooth and...

    Then still, if the phone is stock, no wifi or simcard installed, it seems a lot. It would be more impressive if there is a simcard installed and quite impressive if there are services running in the background with wifi on.

    I am runing 5.3.27 too. I would like to know what killer feature Lollipop has that should make me want to switch? It could be the ART compiler or the new partitioning scheme that allows for way more space for apps. I was getting quite annoyed in 4.5.9 with the 'Cannot install apps anymore'...

    On what Lollipop version is this smui based (aries)? And considering complaints on battery usage on Lollipop, how does it compare to KitKat?

    [rom]-- Smiui Rom -- Ultimate Custom Rom --[multilang,stable/weekly]

    Does SMUI support unified data partitions (so I can run Ivan's 5.1.1 Lollipop AOSP next to an SMUI version)? For Aries. Edit: Seems like it does not yet. But it's coming I guess :)

    vdhmaaarten and mleo: someone reported in a dutch forum that the following screen is just like the original: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Black-Full-Touch-Digitizer-LCD-Display-Frame-Assembly-For-Xiaomi-MI-2-MI-2s-/181456931402?pt=US_Cell_Phone_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item2a3fad0a4a Only...

    Replacement screens!!!

    I have the 'original'. But if that's supposed to be the best quality, I feel sorry for people who have bought the OEM. The 'original' quality is not that good.

    Replacement screens!!!

    How is the white colour? It seems my Dragon TT screen shows whites more as grey. I've compared it to other phones and ipads. Not really disturbing but it isn't the quality I expected, it's performing so-so. I'd give it a 7 out of 10.

    Replacement screens!!!

    So, exchanging the screens was a piece of cake. Dragon TT sends a screen, some tools (screwdriver en prye tools, really nice!) and a screen protector in the box. It was easy getting the casing off the phone. Then it was just a matter of unhooking the connector, placing the motherboard in the...

    I have bought the 62 dollar OEM version off of Dragon TT. Just arrived at house, and I am at work. Will do repairing tonight or tomorrow. I will be able to tell you more about the screen then.

    Replacement screens!!!

    So, with everybody ordering lcd's , digitizers and frames here: can anybody comment on the quality? Is an ibuygou screen better than an screen from the many offerings on e-bay? I'd prefer some shop with original or good quality items that can send the screen fast (faster than 3 weeks). Dragon-tt...
