We know that you have all been really excited about the development of the new ROM, and I am pleased to be able to give you all an update as to our progress!
Firstly, get ready to say hello to the next version of GalnetMIUI Twooey!
Here's a shortlist of the features of the rom:
MIUI 1.7.22 level of features: This has been found to be the most stable in our test builds so far. Rom Base: The rom will be based on Gingerbread 2.3.5 Multi-Language Capability: Due to it being 1.7.22 equivalent, this will mean that the existing v6 Multi-Language pack will work with the next rom. Battery Life: Outside of the current test I have been doing with the development version of the ROM I am using, Galnet has reported 48% remaining after 2 days (yes, 2 days) of uptime on the release ready version of the rom. Brand New Boot animation Brand New default theme: This is still a work in progress
Our primary focus has been on speed, stability and battery life for this first release. The use of MIUI 1.7.22 above was due to the fact that MIUI 1.7.29 is simply too full of bugs to be able to provide a stable ROM, however we have further developed 1.7.22 to have some of the features of 1.7.29.
As we now move on to building on the foundation that we have made, we will be able to easily integrate features from any future MIUI release, but in a way that provides the best possible integration for the Galaxy S and derivative devices.
What is left to be done:
The ROM itself is now ready to be launched, however we still need to finish work on the theme that will be released with Twooey, and we also need to continue some kernel development before we feel it is ready to go.
But you can rest assured that the release of GalnetMIUI Twooey is getting closer and closer, and we will keep you up to date as much as we can with the progress of what we have left to do!
We have also developed a new theme for the forum so that it ties in with the new UI design, so when you see the site change you'll know that Twooey is either released, or will be released that day
This is quite literally the biggest rework this rom has ever received since it was originally ported to work on the Samsung Galaxy S, and it has not been an easy journey to complete!
