Ok so the next release is on hold indefinately. I need to recreate the base apparently... this is pretty much like wandering in the dark because I do not know what to remove or how much of a different base I can have until it isnt a kang.

Also, DroidXChat has gone private release with his version. Twitter

I don't know all the details so I won't try to blame either one but it sucks that they ended up arguing with each other. ICS miui is probably my favorite droid x rom to date and I was looking forward to the updates. Hopefully I won't have to use the Droid X anymore after this Friday

VoidedSaint · Dec 7, 2011

well i trust dxc more than this new guy anyway, only because dxc has been publishing the newest versions of miui and each have been flawless!

colchiro · Dec 7, 2011

This a little better. They opened the thread (again) on Rootzwiki: Ics Miui Test 1.11.9 [UNOFFICIAL] - RootzWiki - Page 229

I am going to take a looksie at that and see what it is. As far as my plans for future releases. We are going to use my 1.9.x builds and just overlay the X's libs ontop and then add in my own version of the bootmenu and user init's. That makes the rom equally functional to 10.21 and gets rid of any issues.

Hey guys. It amazed me I have had such a response over here without me. If you havent heard the news. I am teaching someone else how to do the work so we can get these done more timely. Also I am switching to the ICS stable and then will be doing ICS weeklies when MIUI 4.0 comes out. The same fix list applies except:
Updated CM libs (This has been needed for awhile)
Removing all DXC work (Were taking the Libs from 10.28 and then updating libs I know I can replace)
Rewriting the bootmenu so we still have it
Incorporating 720p fix
EGL fix (more battery and speed)
a few permission fixes in init
and including several scripts
Updated apps

Weekly builds with ICS? I can go for that.

Read my previous post. I have a plan and it will be soon

ICS MIUI 4.0 does sound awesome. And for the 1 millionth time it looks like the Nexus will be delayed, so I will be looking for it eagerly.

i read most of the conversation between DXC and ACE, and well kinda not right what ace is doing, but to each his own.

I can't help but comment. I can see both sides of the argument. Ace inadvertantly stepped on some toes and perhaps should have been better about getting "permission". For DXC, he should have immediately taken things private and explained the situation as he saw it. Instead he publicly accused Ace of stealing from him and Ace was totally shocked having no idea what was being perceived by DXC. DXC seems to have his own philosophy and honor code that is a bit different from other devs. It could have been resolved a whole lot better and we all would have benefitted. Cest la vie.

VoidedSaint · Dec 8, 2011

from the way it seems half of this convo was private, until ace continued to publish workings from dxc then asking for donations, i only read the docx file dxc posted on twitter, if that was in a public forum o well, privately o well.

if its not on Android Forums, i will not know about it.

however it is considered trolling/kanging to take someones work and call it yours, and that is my understanding of it, and it seems that ace was doing exactly that. but others can determine what they think of the situation, because we all have free will to do as such. its a different situation and people can think what they want, as i will as well.

cougar214 · Dec 8, 2011

I could be wrong here, and please correct me if I am, but all this dev fighting over who's work belongs to who is kidna irrelivant considering Android source code isn't supposed to be modified to begin with.

Far be it for me to complain considering I benifit from our devs work also. But come on guys, most of us know who's work is who's. Please stop the bickering and lets get some awsome sauce put on our X,s

VoidedSaint · Dec 8, 2011

lol all the dev bickering is actually old news

this is just now reaching most of the users because of using ones stuff and calling it theirs.

It was public in the sense that DXC and ace seemed to be hashing it out at each other in the ICS Miui Rootzwiki thread.

I dunno. To be honest, from what I can see, all of the developers are borrowing bits and pieces from one another. Unless it's a complete carbon copy (which, from what I understood, ICS wasn't, he just borrowed bits from DXC's version), I guess I don't understand the kang remarks. But I'm also finding it a bit irritating that DXC is doing the equivalent of taking his toys and going home, when it's not the users fault for his beef, it's ace. He's promised something for ages, and now he's going to withhold it. Obviously he owes us nothing, but it does seem a bit like a slap to those of us who have used his versions and have been rather (im)patiently waiting.

Ah well. I just have to wait longer for ace's version, I have my phone for a whole 'nother year; I have time.

dxc ran into problems with the 720p and he has been working on getting it fixed, then once the ICS builds came out, he moved to that to get us more for it.

That's the part I'm not clear about. Didn't DXC fix 720p and even had a zip update for CM7? As far as I'm concerned 1.10.21 is perfect other than lack of the 720p fix. It's smooth and super stable. Is there anyway I can just get the 720p fix on top of 1.10.21?

I don't understand this. Most people say 1.10.21 is all kinds of stable for them. I didn't think it was very stable on my X. Maybe it's just a case of my particular X isn't handling it as well as other X's?

But as far as MIUI goes, It's a dead project. All our devs have either moved on to other devices or to ICS. It's a shame too because MIUI has so much to offer....

simollie · Dec 14, 2011

"@wizard0f0s: Miui 1.12.9 for the DX should be out today / tonight. Thanks to DXC for all the help and giving me a great base to start from!"

Finally! Can't wait for the new release...

colchiro · Dec 14, 2011

Yup, there it is... in rom manger and here: MIUI.us UNITED WORLDWIDE - ROM Downloads

Caveman419 · Dec 15, 2011

This is the GB build though, not the ICS. We are still waiting on Ace for that one.

colchiro · Dec 15, 2011

Yes, and requires a data wipe if going from one to the other, which is why I haven't installed it.

Sokudo Ningyou · Dec 15, 2011

I'm hesitant to try it; I'm on .21 still, and I don't know if it's MIUI or certain apps, but it's been a PITA. I wish I still had a copy of the previous version from .21 to reflash, because I was solid on that one. Better YouMail keeps "losing" its connection, and Launcher Pro Plus seems to excessively need to redraw every time I open Widget Locker (which I only switched back to because the MIUI lockscreens are a headache to figure out how to customize). Feeh. I'm sorely tempted to try CM just to see if it solves my problems.

colchiro · Dec 15, 2011

Isn't .21 available from rom manager or from here?

These are GB tho, not ICS.

Ace seems have pushed out the release indefinitely.

Based on my limited experience Ace's 1.11.9 ICS was only tiny little faster than DXC's 1.10.21 GB, but much more buggy. So I'm happy to stay on the GB track as long as it gets better.

I think the more important thing of this new release is that people are eager to put the dev drama behind and this release restored a sense of progress.

Well, Ace just announced that he's quit Android development. So that's that. too bad...

I can't blame him.
