Hey Guys,
I have been a user of the GB builds of MIUI on my Nexus One. I have been trying out MIUI JB on my maguro every other week. Just flashed 2.9.21 for maguro. It definitely looks like an improvement over 2.9.7 but I'm stilling missing some of the MIUI features that I regularly use. For 2.9.21,
- Lockscreen lag continues. On switching on the device, you first see the homescreen wallpaper for a moment before the unlocking slider appears
- Full-fledged customisation options don't seem to have been added yet? LED notifications, for example, are not customisable yet (which was a feature already present on my N1's MIUI). There also used to be a Themes personalisation section in MIUI's setting where you could click on Edit theme and make changes to individual elements of the Theme. Is this feature hidden somewhere or is it perhaps on a waitlist for future additions?
- The icons looks really big. So do the buttons on the dialpad. Can this be easily remedied without editing build.prop? I'm not sure if we are allowed to make comparisons with miui.us but they seem to have switched between higher and lower DPIs over the last two releases. I was wondering if increasing the DPI was something that was being considered to bring down the humongous icon sizes.
- I've been prompted for Xiaomi account registration on startup. This is new and was never mandatory earlier. If there are others who don't want an account with Xiaomi, just pick the email registration option for new users and simply don't go through with the verification.
Those were some of my observations and problems that I faced guys. Any thoughts, solutions or additional information is greatly appreciated.
