Are you new to the modding community?
Do you have no Idea what your doing?
Did you recently purchase a kindle fire and put that fresh MIUI Rom on your kindle because you got tired of stock, and have no idea why it looks funny?
If you have any of these questions im here to help.
If you recently flashed the MIUI Rom for the kindle fire and have no idea why there are huge icons and small icons i thought i take the time to show you a simple fix.
First if you already didn't do this download the rom this can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424434
It is always best to Backup then wipe system, Data, and Both Caches for a perfect flash.
Once you finish this you will then boot your device to find this

(this is a great launcher i used it at first but i really couldn't change the thing i wanted so its completely optional.
************************************************************
Last are the Iphone sounds
Here is a compilation of iphone sounds. They are not made by me so all the credits go to the authors (Apple,...), i just put the files in a .zip archive You can download this sounds at this link: http://www.mediafire.com/?kwujhpbu37a9dlh
How to install: Use ES File Explorer root explorer or adb to push this files because their is a root access to system files. -iphone UI sounds: put the files (.ogg) in this folder \system\media\audio\ui -iphone rings/alarm: put the files (.mp3) in this folder: \system\media\audio\ringtones ,and/or \system\media\audio\alarms -the iphone default sms received ring: put the "apple_smsreceived.mp3" in this folder: \system\media\audio\notifications
And Bam your MIUI rom is complete hope you enjoyed
Here is a video of such!
Thanks everyone
Another thing if you don't want the iPhone sounds but want the keyboard sounds go into smart keyboard pro and go into smart keyboard pro settings and click on sound and vibrate Turn On Sound on key press Select Sound style to iPhone and make sure vibrate is on
Nice write up, But you need to mention and let people know that this is a Chinese based Rom , And let them make the choice MIUI People never mention that, now I am not being racist but I do not trust it.
Holy crap, Ima download this.
Why not just buy an iphone because that is basically the end result

Your honestly true but to tell you the truth i always loved miui because of the features and the many different things that you can do to it but i never really got into because of the lack of 4g capabilities but when i bought my kindle fire i immediatly knew that miui would make my kindle fire look better and even preform better and thanks for the response

actually its way cheaper than buying an expensive ipad...
I think all the apple haters need to lay off already and come to the reality that, as hard to believe as it may sound, apple did a good job on making its software look spectacular. I personally think Android is better for a number of reasons that I wont mention here, but I still think the look and feel of iOS still looks better than android up until Ice Cream Sandwich. Its all a matter of preference.
If you don't like apple move on! Don't crap this guys helpful thread with ur opinions on a different device! Dang whats wrong with xda these days...

just wondering if theres an iphone theme for the htc touch pro 2????
There is a commercial one available at http://www.iphonethemeforppc.com/index.php
I haven't tried it so use at own risk
Iphone Theme
I just purchased this one today and it didn't work very well. The icons were smaller than a chicklett and they were all bunched together. Also, there didn't seem to be any support after your make your purchase... save your money.

No offense, but I really don't see any reason to turn your phone into an iPhone if you didn't get an iPhone. Maybe I'm missing something here, I don't know.
The IphoneToday v1.1 app works great for me.
There is a Rhodium Theme section, why post in the ROM section?
Concerning your question, you could search the Blackstone theme section, since both devices are very similar.

The Touch Pro 2 does kinda resemble the iPhone though, with the chrome edges around it
None of that stuff from that site has any support, because they stole it all from XDA. The locker app is called S2U2. In this thread The today screen was probably iFonz. Link here. There are a bunch more iPhone-like applications here, all you have to do is search before buying.

i was just about to say that. to have an iphone just to have an iphone is pretty damn lame, but if you have one and genuinely understand phones and appreciate how good it really is, the more power to you. now, if you come to xda and ask this, that's just rock bottom

No offence, but if you think that putting an Iphone styled theme over a TP2 turns it into an Iphone, then yes, you missed quite a lot.
My 2-cents on this...
If you have an iPhone or use an iPhone theme, you're missing out on a lot of info on your homescreen.
You'll only have a bunch of shortcut icons. No preview of messages, no viewing upcoming appointments, etc.
It's like every time turn on your device, you're presented with the TF3D Start menu. Not sure why anyone would do this when TF3D and other more capable solutions are available.

That's a valid opinion, and as you use your phone that way, it's great you have the option of TF3D. The Iphone has advantages too, like if you want to open facebook/twitter/messaging, you turn the phone on, then click on facebook/twitter/messaging and you're done without having to open the start menu or slide to a different TF3D tab.
People use their phones differently so it's also great that they can set up their phone to suit themselves.
That's what's great about WinMo - people can do what they want with it, so if someone had an Iphone & loved the way it works, but not the lack of a keyboard & high-res screen, they can get a Pro2, enjoy the keyboard, high-res screen, and make it operate in a way that suits them.
If someone wants something on their phone, either help them achieve it, or leave them to it. Why criticise them because we don't want or understand what they want?
That's my view anyway!
Yeah, well said DavidMc0. I've just got the TP2 and want an auto lock solution. s2u2 looks like the one for me but I've concerns over the battery drain. It'll probably be the app for me but we'll see...

If you've ever had an Iphone which I have, you can appreciate the layout of the phone. The visual display and layout of the phone is great, bar but what I didn't like was the none keyboard and the AT&T cost, so if I come across a good iphone theme, I'd be happy to give it test drive

Iphone Theme
I know you might ask, why get a Touch Pro if you want an Iphone Theme. Well if you've had an iphone which I have you can really appreciate the flow of the phone. Everything is touch and setup in a manner that isn't clumped together. Windows Mobile just doesn't do it. Being able to touch things very easily is such a nice touch. I've already played around with some of the themes and some are nice but if someone would emuliate the iphone theme, I garantee it would be a hit. BTW, the only reason I got rid of the iphone is I wanted access to 3G which I didn't have on the TMobile network.
Just my thought...
There are tons of iphone applications that will work for the TP2, free ones... Search them. A couple examples:
iFonz
iPhoneToday
WAD2 (is a skinning program, you have to find the iphone theme for it. seen some beautiful looking ones)
ThrottleLauncher (another skinning program, might be an iPhone theme for it somewhere)
Just make sure you look to see that it supports WVGA resolution before trying any of them. IphoneToday is probably the best out right now in terms of functionality. Very light plugin, customizable, works like the iPhone, can be used with other today plugins, it's just awesome. Had it on my Titan and if it weren't for Manila being so dang sexy I'd have it on my Rhodium as well.

It's really a preference thing, there's no harm in installing any one of them and seeing if you like'em. Sense really is the better fit for me.
Some of the major ones are:
- OpenHome
- aHome
-dxTop
- PandaHome
...that's just off the top of my head some of the ones I've tried. They each have some cool and unique things about them.
Once i figure what can me skinned and how i will be making themes. Not sure if i will post any, as i must have made at least 100 themes for S2U2 for personal use when i had my WinMo phones. If i did do one to post it would more than likely be a Danbo (Danboard) theme.
I just discovered that little guy and i already outfitted my chompSMS with several wallpapers of him.

aHome Lite made my Hero so laggy i could hardly use it. It took me like 10 minutes just to get it uninstalled.
Also, when i was searching for OpenHome i couldnt find the actual program, only themes. Anyone know the official app name?

I didn't have much trouble with aHome, odd.
Any home replacement will be difficult to find on the market if there's a bunch of themes with the name in it sadly.
I almost forgot a few more too:
- Freshface
- GDE (though I don't know if this one is out yet)
As for OpenHome, fire up that barcode scanner and go here:
http://www.androidtapp.com/open-home/ It has QR codes to scan and will take you straight to the market app.
which one do you think looks the best? and is the fastest

There is a kitchen, its called Android SDK and you can use it with eclipse. all you need to do is go grab the source from htc and compile it the way you want to and load it up with eclipse. or the android emulator. there is other steps but thats what google is for. i am working on my own rom right now. cant wait till its done. i am wondering how fast a bone stock rom would run.
I would be ur number one fan for a bone stock Android with hero support. I'd even go as far as to say it would be the base most custom roms are based off of.
I'm not a programmer but if u go through with this is there any way to twist cryogen's work into it? He gets great reviews and the update utility is pretty pimp

i agree -- it's kinda suggesting that Apple did it better (which is what some may think, but not i) -- i even went so far as to uncheck the "Programs" tab in TF3D because i found it to be cumbersome, and use QuickMenu almost exclusively (after having remapped hardware and soft keys)

this thread just went upside down. so much negativity, we are not here to bag on what phone is best or what phone is not. it was a simple question that was answered, so if you guys don't like it then respectfully move on to another thread. Simple as that!...
I'm sure I will get flamed but here goes anyway. Everyone is jumping on to the MIUI bandwagon, and yes in my opinion it does have a few cool features, but not enough to win me over. Am I the only one on XDA that kind of dislikes this rom? I've tried to like it but I just can't. I like roms that tend to be more stock anyway, I think modded froyo such as enom's rom and cyanogenmod etc. have all of the features and beauty that I need. I see a lot of people saying think iOS and Android together! If I wanted iOS I would own an iPhone and not a N1.
I understand it is all preference and whatnot, but I can't be the only one who hates the MIUI interface. FM Radio cool! Interface not cool! I know I can install other launchers but to me that kind of defeats the whole purpose of running this rom.
I'm not going to mess with it anymore, I just wanted to give it a chance.
Am I the only one who doesn't care for this rom?
Sorry for the rant
It's okay. I dont hate or like it
Haven't tried it. It looks nice and well done but the iOS styling doesn't draw me in

Probably.. I just don't see what the big deal is about this rom. I posted in the general forum so I am allowed to express an opinion/vent a little about a rom thats getting a lot of attention and I personally don't see what all the hype is about.
By the way you did read and reply to my thread.
Yea you're correct in stating that installing other launchers defeats the purpose. I liked it for about a week but went back cyan...now i'm on micromods hybrid...for me the sense roms got me hyped up. If the Mui wasnt iphone'd up then it would actually be really sweet but that whole iphone thing just ruins the experience and awww of having an android device
I agree with you OP. I dont like it at all. Now the fact they made a new UI is cool, but like OP said, if I wanted iOS, I would have bought an iPhone
haha fair enough.
I am not too big on the iphone icons either. However, I do like the lock screen, speed, and the battery life.
Also it isnt as obvious as in cyan, but it does have .flac support and will stop playing music when you disconnect. However it will not play upon reconnecting.

The lock screen is slick. It does seem speedy, I can't confirm battery life only because I wasn't able to use it long enough to really wear on a battery. I do appreciate that there are so many choices with custom roms and the dev team that created this rom has obviously worked hard and it shows. That is the beauty of android, so many choices. It is a very pretty rom no doubt, but I just prefer a more stock type interface.
The MIUI ROM looks nice, but I also prefer a stock, simple look. Im happy to see them pushing the envelope though.
the big hype is because MIUI is a complete overhaul, different than what we are used to. Sometimes a change once in awhile is good, and MIUI is a great change I jump from cyan to MIUI. FM radio, lockscreen, and the UI is amazing, I do prefer different style icons but that's about it
It's a very, very optimized ROM. Battery life, speed, the super-neat toggles in the notification tray. You can just install another launcher and still benefit from all of the above plus the great lock screen, FM radio, and excellent phone/SMS/contact apps.
I Agree, with launcher it's really a nice rom !!
I like the resent part who include a task killer.

Same thing for you, if you don't like MIUI Rom don't use it. Try it, if you don't like it restore nandroid backup and forget about it...
And shut up, keep it for yourself that you don't like it.

And who told you that you have to use it and are not allowed to use anything else???
If you don't like it use something different. Whats the problem?
I don't like pink colored t-shirts so i don't wear them. I don't blame anybody else that wears pink t-shirts. I don't tell anyone that I hate them. I just don't wear them.

ROFL! My thoughts exactly.

I'm sure I will get flamed but here goes anyway. Everyone is jumping on to the MIUI bandwagon, and yes in my opinion it does have a few cool features, but not enough to win me over. Am I the only one on XDA that kind of hates this rom? I've tried to like it but I just can't. I like roms that tend to be more stock anyway, I think modded froyo such as enom's rom and cyanogenmod etc. have all of the features and beauty that I need. I see a lot of people saying think iOS and Android together! If I wanted iOS I would own an iPhone and not a N1.
I understand it is all preference and whatnot, but I can't be the only one who hates the MIUI interface. FM Radio cool! Interface not cool! I know I can install other launchers but to me that kind of defeats the whole purpose of running this rom.
I'm not going to mess with it anymore, I just wanted to give it a chance.

Umm...dont use it then?
Just want to say I tried the port for my Inc, but went back to cm6.
Though I don't feel as if its my flavor of ROM, I do want to say it is very innovative, and probably the first (at least on ROMs for the Inc) of its kind to really truly redesign the interface.
So while I don't use it, I would definitely like to see more transformations of this kind.

Well i guess you have a wrong concept of the MIUI rom. It is not because of the launcher ppl like the rom. But because of the tweaks. till now there are no roms to my knowledge where you could change the lockscreen within the android os. ( i am not talking of 3rd party apps like widget locker....., here it's different. it's the native one being modified. ) we havent been able to change native phone and contact.apk, we were just applying themes. but the MIUI is different. Even when you go to settings in the menu, you'll observe how things get snappier and all bouncy. Not to mention the little menu's in the lockscreen ( now being seen in the sense HD), answer&reject mods when receiving calls... and the FM radio which were unknown and still being documented in the xda community. Basically everything has been modifies here, even the mms.apk.
so i guess it is wrong to make such an assumption based only on the launcher which ressembles the iphone. I have been using the MIUI with launcher pro and I had amazing battery life.
If you do not like a rom , just don't use it. Why dont u make another thread saying that rodriguezstyle is too greenish or micromod's roms are too glassy ( sorry chefs , lol . it was just to make my point). or maybe somebody else should start another thread saying i hate stock looking roms! Of course you can come up with all these talks that xda is a community forum, everybody has the right to bla bla bla , democracy.... and you do have the right but it is all about MANNERS and RESPECT here! You do not critise someone's work ( which you are getting for free btw) just because of ur taste!!
this mod needs root access and a build.prop editor.
after you have these things open the editor and navigate to ro.build.version.release this is the android version label
here you can change it to whatever you want, like i don't know mabey android 4.2.1 haha
or anything else you want even names or words...
just thought id share this little mod with you guys
(please note that this does not actually change the version of the OS it just says it does here's a screen shot of my phone in the attachment)
Pretty pointless but OK
Lol I tried changing it to 10.1 last year and I showed my friend, told him this is my Christmas present from google, he snatched my phone and run like hell lol.

OVER NINE THOUSANNNNNNNNNND!!!
Seriously though, I did a similar mod to this to my iPhone 3G a few years ago which allowed me to install iOS 4 apps on iOS 3.2 or whatever it was at the time!
