Android Roms – cyanomodgen 7.1 & miui 1.12.9
Been using cm7 for quite some time on my motorola defy. Was wondering how miui would work so put it up 2 days back and was happy to see some nice features.
So I compiled a small comparison of the roms -
| CM7.1 | Miui 1.12.9 | |
| Dialer | calls grouped, shows number of calls | calls are not grouped by contact |
| dialer does not search contact for matching numbers as you type | dialer searches contacts for matching numbers as you type | |
| default launcher | adw | go |
| file manager | OI | good one, shows memory usage on startup |
| app killer | not available | available, press home key for 2-3 seconds |
| call recording | not available | available |
| pulldown menu on home / notification widgets | better | worse |
| power button menu | available | not available |
| music player seeking support | available | not available |
| blacklisting | available | available |
| inbuilt firewall | not available | available, but does not seem to be foolproof, some applications got their way around this |
| tablet tweaks | available | not available |
| quiet hours | available | not available |
| mute camera shutter | available | not available |
Android security check
Following is a security check done using avast beta version, limited applications checked, installed android versio is 2.3.7, kernel 2..32.9, CM7.1



Why does cardio trainer need to access contacts?






Just too many apps needing to know about identity!!!
