[IDEA] - Porting Launcher2.apk from MIUI to other roms

Hi all,
Due to some issues with Market etc, I had this thought that maybe the best elements of MIUI could be taken from the ROM and ported into ASOP or some other rom e.g. Cyanogen.
Is this possible anyone think?
Cheers,
M

where do you want to port to? Froyo?MIUI is a Froyo dude, to Sense rom?does it necessary?

The Launcher UI to another ROM base I mean chris
I know MIUI is based upon AOSP Froyo, I am on about taking the UI elements from MIUI but putting them into a ROM we can develop with e.g. source code available, fix issues e.g. market displaying incorrect, so on and so forth.
Cheers,
M

What happens if you just install MIUI Launcher2 on another rom? Should work... may need to be resigned that's all though I think.

ForceClose errors.

I'd like that too. And maybe the scrolling behavior too, which I tried by copying the xml's in the anim in frame-work res folder but nothing happened. Maybe someone knows how to?

Nope, don't think so. To be honest, I haven't really tested it myself. I just provided the signed APK if needed for people.

Right I see!

I'd love to have all the components of the miui launcher but without that dock and dialer..I'd much rather have the sense dock/dialer/launcher on the miui rom..that would be perfect but i cant imagine that ever happening lol I love the folders,editing mode,notification panel,scrolling,and lock screen of the miui, huge improvement over the aosp imo

Maybe but not the place for that discussion
Anyone think we will see the source code for the Launcher released to Cyanogen any time soon?
That system + him would be something special!

lo.. u guys have so much dreams!! Like me hahha... i tried to install launcher2.apk from adb nd it says invalid apk.. so i think its up to devs to do that lol.. nd i like all miui mods to be on cm7 based roms or cm7 .. i like miui but it has to much bugs on it so i m now on mexdroid mod aio htc glacier

MIUI Launcher is apart of MIUI ROM framework...it is very hard to port it to another rom , and also we don't have MIUI source code...

Wow you really dug this one up from the grave. Oct 2010? But someone did make a copy/theme of the MIUI launcher. Check out https://market.android.com/details?id=org.adw.launcher.miui&hl=en

[Q] Best ROM for Kindle?

Hey,
I'm new here, I'm sorry for asking this question I'm sure it's been asked before but I didn't see it.
But I want more than one persons opinion.
What is the best ROM for the Kindle Fire?
Please tell me why you think so, or why you know so.
I'm really looking for a ROM out of BETA, and very close fully functional.
Thank you!

if having netflix is important to you then I would go with CM7 with an ICS theme until a more stable release is out for CM9. In the first post of the CM9 thread there is a disclaimer that the release is not intended for daily use yet. CM9 is very much in beta right now so CM7 or CM7 barebones are what I would recommend for you

OK thank you man, so is barebones a version of CM7 without bloatware or some stock apps?

correct, it is a custom CM7 rom with a lot of the bloat taken out

Is it the most stable version of CM7?

[Q]Is there a Pure AOSP or Stock Gingerbread for the ZTE Blade?

The title says it all. I searched the forums but I find gb builds filled with bugs or too many mods... Isn't there a totally stable , bugless gingerbread with good battery life?
Sent from my Htc One V using Tapatalk

There is, as the new blades, Gen3 come with gingerbread. However, I haven't seem a flashable zip anywhere. Good luck with that

There is one aosp 2.3.7 by Tommie search modaco I would have linked u there but im not able to open modaco I might post the link in an hour or so

I think you are confused aosp is not equal to stock and they can never coexist together in one ROM

Use Swedish Snow,
http://www.modaco.com/topic/350875-romgen2-swedish-snow-rls7-android-235/
It's a stock 2.3.5 Swedish ROM designed for the ZTE Blade, there are a few minor tweaks and customisations to make the user experience better, but it's no where near as customised as CyanogenMod. To be honest it's the nearest you're going to get to an AOSP stock ROM designed for the ZTE Blade
PS: I know it's an awesome ROM since I use it.

Hahaha! I'm using it now, it's really good and better than the others....
I have themed it to look like a samsung stock rom. Battery is amazing. I can play all my HD games(of course after editing build.prop). This is smoother than CM7 IMHO.

AOSP Look TW ROM??

Hey all, I usually don't do this as I've seen some other people bi*****g about development on this phone and how it's stalled. I am NOT saying that at all, was just wondering if anyone is/doing/going to develop a TW (since no AOSP ) ROM that looks like AOSP? Somewhat like @nitroglycerine33's Eclipse? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351840
Or if anyone knows how to and would like to, I have some people who are very interested in having ROM(s) out there like this and can donate. Thanks

try raffaeles88 foxhound rom.. it's the closest one to aosp.. ?

I'm going to make two assumptions: 1) you're on Verizon and 2) you don't have a developer edition phone. If that is the case you can only flash TW based ROMs made for the Retail version of the S5. Having said that there is one ROM I'm told that comes pretty close to an AOSP look and feel and that is the Alliance ROM. I have not flashed that ROM, but reading through the threads in the Android Development section there seems to be a lot of happy users of that ROM. On the other hand, if you want a very lean, debloated, fast ROM with great battery life and everything works (all essential functions) there is the Syndicate ROM which as near to the pure Android experience as possible (hard to tell it's TW based). Both these ROMs can be flashed through SafeStrap or if you have a Dev Edition S5 just flash through TWRP. Unless you have a Developer Edition S5 you're not going to be able to flash any of the available AOSP ROMs...it just isn't going to happen without an unlocked bootloader and no one has broken that "code" yet.

Lol well the first assumption should be easy as i posted in Verizon general S5. And an obvious yes for the 2nd as i know the only aosp roms are for the dev ed. Alliance rom is nice but too big and many things with stock ugly 4.4 colors

The OP was quite easy to understand. Since we don't have an unlocked bootloader I want a TW ROM that looks like aosp, hence the link to my old favorite ROM from when I had the s4 I put there as reference. He might not be getting an S5 so I just wanted to see if someone could get in touch with him and Maybe get some permissions to do that or w/e..

It wold be awesome to port this to G900F also. It's the most beautiful TW AOSP theme I have ever seen. Damn you made me regret my old S4 lol. Pure AOSP look with TW Camera...
I follow you, if someone is willing, I would donate for this kind of work.

I will like too a tw with AOSP look

Well, I've learned on this site that not everything is obvious all the time. I've seen T-Mobile and ATT users posting question to this site. Anyway, I just wanted to confirm, but I must agree, if I had read your profile a little closer I wouldn't have had to make any assumptions. My answer, however, remains the same.

Which Rom is good for s4 I9505 and without problems

Plz guys help to find good Rom for my S4 without more problems

you should say more about what you're looking for in a rom. do you want Samsung features and touchwiz or a pure Android AOSP or something more modified like cyanogenmod ?
only a Samsung based rom will give you full features in the camera or MHL support. AOSP and CM will be usually faster and give more free internal space. no rom is going to be perfect though as that is also a measure of personal preference and custom roms often have tiny bugs in them.
usually talk of which rom is the best is discouraged here, we are urged to try some for ourselves and make our own choice...

Stock and Unrooted is the best...

Lol. Seriously?
What harm does root access and debloated roms do?
It is like blaming the gun and not the person who pulled the trigger when someone is killed. :/
And FYI due to the heavy amounts of bloatware and other unwanted stuff, the performance is slow in stock roms and also not all of them are stable.

Just stay on debloated stock ROMs with stock or close-to-stock kernel. That's it.
