I have a very short time with Android, almost month and a half. I bought a Motorola Atrix, and I have already rooted and tried CM7 and 9, but finally I got stucked with MIUI. It's awesome. Should be the default interface for all Android. But is annoying for me that MIUI doesn't have support for the fingerprint reader on my phone, I don't know where to claim for it to Xiaomi or those who develop MIUI. I use a rom developed by a guy called Th3Bill, but seems he doesn't know either how to do that.
Despite of that, I have some other suggestions for MIUI general use. I have seen some of them right there.
- An option for changing current track playing from the screen lock by long-pressing volume keys, like CM7-CM9 does;
- Or an option for doing the same with hand gestures, like TTPod does;
- Setting the alarm clock tone in System settings rather in the clock app;
- An option to say 'Snooze' or 'Dismiss' when phone is ringing because of a clock alarm placing the hand over it (using the proximity sensor), like 'Magic Alarm' does;
- Auto-locking when the proximity sensor detects the phone is into a pocket;
- An option for sorting alphabetically icons in launcher and folders;
- An option for removing/hiding dock;
- Loop on home screens;
- Customize LED notification colors;
- Gestures on home screen (like @naaroth said);
- Set SMS alert volume apart from ringtone volume;
- Landscape mode in home screen...
At least it would be pleasant to know if some developer of MIUI would read all this thread!
