Some things I gathered from reading on the Chinese forums:

*The OP on the Chinese forums warns that this is a buggy release, and users should wait for a more stable version to appear.
*This version is MIUI 2.1.13, which is ICS not ICS (my bad, I think it's 2.3.7 based).

3GC101:
*There is a bug concerning the reception of MMS messaging.
*There is a bug where the SMS notification sound cannot be muted, and will continue ringing until the phone has been powered down. I kid you not: "收完短信以后听筒滴滴响，除非关机，否则关不掉。"
*There is a bug where the camera aspect ratio is incorrect.
*There is a bug where the power button must be pressed multiple times in order to wake the screen. A proposed workaround is to use volume buttons to wake.
*There is a bug where changing the default ringtone causes the phone not to ring when receiving a phone call.
*There are still bluetooth issues (very unspecific) with the 3GC101.
*A poster managed to black out his screen adjusting his brightness settings, and now has no way of making his screen visible again because he can't see his menus.

3GW101:
*A 3GW101 user reported that after he installed three apps, within half an hour his phone was unable to place calls, he was unable to end calls using his phone, and had to wait half an hour after booting in order to place calls.
*There is a bug where changing the default ringtone causes the phone not to ring when receiving a phone call.

A poster on their forums claims it is "90% perfect"... I would stay away from this one. Besides, the OP says a bug fix release is in the works.

3GW100:
According to this thread:
MIUI chita 3gw100????????-???Phone_???pad -

The 3GW100 version is severely buggy to the point of brokenness, so no dice for me.

In a normal country the guy who commited this crap would have been fired. In China its actually a release.

Is Lenovo taking a perverted pleasure in losing face? Are they trying to prove the world how incompetent and moronic they are? Are they trying to shame 1.5 billion chinese?

Hi,
it is an very nice ROM, i used it on 3GW101 all APK`s are in function but the sound is bad i can not changed it it is the onced problem as i have

Well to be fair this is a community release, and despite the flaws of this rom I appreciate the hard work modders put into this phone... And yes, Lenovo is a bit behind in their official updates.

If anyone who has this version can download the Version Checker from my site:
Lenovo Lephone
(second from top)
it will display the real google based version (I wrote it for these exact cases)

*A poster managed to black out his screen adjusting his brightness settings, and now has no way of making his screen visible again because he can't see his menus. *

I kno its super funny to have a "brick this phone" feathure but ANYBODY doing so will get a black screen. So do I.

**** lenovo, **** chita.

Btw to solve this (on most android device look like a pretty common issue) you sit in the dark with a powerfull pocket lamp and try for about 3 hours to change the setting while changing light exposure angle.

Sometime it work

Being an Android user we want total control over the look and feel of your device at all times. That is why many of us turn to MIUI
