Double N: Yea, I have beautiful widgets but I haven't used it in a while. I just like the way the MIUI weather looks. |

I downloaded weather & toggle widgets and it gels nicely with the theme. I think I might stick with this for a while. |

Ok ya'll, I get the picture. Venturing into this custom rom stuff should be worth while |
Re: Android, Anyone? by linkin8k(m): 11:01pm On Aug 15, 2011 |
Please can someone help me on choosing between the desire s and bb 4. Am really worried about the battery power of the desire which i have heard is poor especially here in Nigeria where there is no support centre to return the phone if i encounter battery problems. Please reply this night because am planning on getting a phone latest tomorrow Also has anyone bought the desire s from DSCL? Did you encounter any problem |
Re: Android, Anyone? by DoubleN(m): 8:02am On Aug 16, 2011 |
lynxnoon:I am using 1.7.22 and everything works perfectly on my phone. Wonder why yours is different. . Another very cool feature of this ROM is the[b] visitor[/b] mode which once activated locks up all personal info such as SMS to any third party. This are some shots of the beautiful widgets on my device.

Re: Android, Anyone? by lynxnoon(m): 9:14am On Aug 16, 2011 |
linkin8k:well I got my desire s from DSCL about 4 months ago and I don't have any regret doing so As per battery issue, all recent smartphones don't have extra-longlasting life wether blackberry or android It depends on what you need the phone for I won't suggest which to choose cos its obvious what I would recommend. . . . .lol cheers |
Re: Android, Anyone? by lynxnoon(m): 9:25am On Aug 16, 2011 |
@Double N Your phone has an official miui version that's why you don't have those issues am facing when I get a stable internet I'll! download the latest version and see how far |
Re: Android, Anyone? by 4llerbuntu(m): 2:07pm On Aug 16, 2011 |
was wonderin about something, why do chinese clones run winmo 6.5 and other crap OS? when i see what MIUI are doing with android, and the fact that android OS is there for anyone to use, why have they been releasing crap fones? i see today that MIUI is backing a fone out of china officially now : http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/16/xiaomi-phone-hands-on/ and it just struck me, i dont understand why. am pretty sure some of those crap they produce would be a lot better and they would probably have a larger market if they adopted android. its free FFS! anyway, why does the BOT always ban me when i post on this thread? and they wont release the post still after unban. na wah ooo NL |
Re: Android, Anyone? by 4llerbuntu(m): 2:10pm On Aug 16, 2011 |
and just to clear this point, BB also dont have good battery life. gone are the days of Nokia 3310 when u charge once in 5 days. hopefully, soon somebody will make a breakthrough on making battries that last longer |
Re: Android, Anyone? by Lexusgs430: 2:52pm On Aug 16, 2011 |
4llerbuntu: Point of correction - : I have seen Chinese phones that run on android !!!!! |
Re: Android, Anyone? by lynxnoon(m): 3:14pm On Aug 16, 2011 |
@4llerbe the answer to your WHY is simply . . . MONEY Most (if not all . . .lol) don't have the funds for stronger hardware and also marketing |
Re: Android, Anyone? by linkin8k(m): 3:49pm On Aug 16, 2011 |
Is there any disadvantage of a UK used desire s? I found one for 54k which seems clean |
Re: Android, Anyone? by DoubleN(m): 4:27pm On Aug 16, 2011 |
linkin8k:So far its not locked to any network and your HSDPA band is 2100, you have no problem. |
Re: Android, Anyone? by lynxnoon(m): 10:45am On Aug 17, 2011 |
@DoubleN please how's your battery on miui like? thinking of changing my kernel from Unity to Tiamat cost am not impressed with what am getting so far Any suggestions? |
Re: Android, Anyone? by DoubleN(m): 12:02pm On Aug 17, 2011 |
lynxnoon:Battery life on MIUI.us is the best i have seen on any ROM so far (No hyping). I get an average of over Day on a full charge with moderate usage including email syncing,IM, music etc. I am using the Cyanogen mod 2.6.35.13 Kernel sha. |
Re: Android, Anyone? by DoubleN(m): 12:21pm On Aug 17, 2011 |
This is a Snapshot of the Kernel Version.

|
Re: Android, Anyone? by DoubleN(m): 11:22am On Aug 19, 2011 |
lynxnoon:I am sure it will. I am about upgrading to 1.85 myself. . From all my adventures with different ROMs so far,this MIUI satisfies me the most. |
