MIUI_Au 2.9.7 R1 for the One X – Now Available

Greetings, MIUI_Au Users!

Due to a rather unfortunate set of circumstances (apologies to Dangles), I was unable to replicate the somewhat enormous issue which was present in previous releases.

None of the system apps were being signed correctly, and users who flashed over the top of a working MIUI_Au ROM (ie Me) saw no problem. Everyone who wiped their data partitions encountered the good old ‘nothing is working’.

It was only after I ran out of space in my build environment and had the ROM half-bake itself (requiring me to full wipe everything) that I saw it. Then Lennox helped me sort it out.

Anyway, everything is working fine now.

 

Features from MIUI_Au (Somewhere is Oz!):

Lennox’s Build System

  • Consistent and much improved language across releases
  • MUCH faster than comparing everything by hand
  • Further improvements (it works!)

Optional Features (Selectable Within AROMA Installer)

  • Sense Calendar – Replaces Stock Calendar

  • Sony Bravia Engine

Changes (New this release)

  • Fixed that big fat issue causing nothing to work
  • Adjusted the layout of various items (such as the categories in File Explorer, and the numbers in Music). Plenty more to come when I can.

Changes (Cumulative)

  • Adjusted file size limits in Downloads to be more useful (1MB ,2MB ,5MB ,10MB ,20MB ,50MB, and 100MB)
  • Modified ‘Critical’ battery levels (15, 10, 5)
  • Centered Status Bar (Standard for now)
  • Altered standard theme (Status Bar is now semi-opaque to make status bar icons easier to see)
  • Adjusted the range of update speeds for the bandwidth indicator in Traffic (1/4S, 1/2S, 1S, 2S, 3S, 5S, and 10S)
  • Created Homescreen Icon for Audio Equaliser (read below)
  • Some new animations (I wrote them myself) – the ‘sliding sideways’ animation. More when I work out what I’m doing. Also adjusted the timings for a couple of others, such as the toast timings.
  • Much improved English
  • Additional build.prop modifications

Audio Mods

  • Recompiled HTC’s Beats Audio control panel with better English (and to remove the ‘Beats’ branding)
  • Disabled the Limiter (audio will no longer distort on low volumes)
  • Rewrote the Presets. Let me know how they sound.

To-Do List

  • Fix the time and date formatting for call history entries
  • Add the 4-way reboot
  • Complete SuperMarket translation updates
Installation & Support Instructions:
  • Flash from your recovery, or from MIUI’s Updater app (which will do all the work for you).
  • Please report to me anything you’d like me to change or add.

  • No longer need to remove mpdecision as Xiaomi have done it in the official ROM (better late then never)
  • I will upload the full rom later today or tomorrow, but for now the incremental is available (same rules as last week, only flash over pure MIUI_Au 2.8.17 installation).
  • Had literally no time to look at anything this week, so not much new from me other then the usual language fixes and a few optimisations here and there. And organising my posts like I used to with the Desire builds :P
