I have a friend who is now trying android, he is having IOS withdrawal, is there anything similar to help him out theme or a type of rom or something, thanks.

If he still wants the ios like feeling he could try to use miui as the launcher is a bit the same plus you can download ios themes for it.
But if your friend really wants to use android then I suggest to get away from the IOS look as there is much more behind that look on android.

where is this iphone rom? has anyone seen this? ios kind of ported to android

I saw a couple youtube videos of ios ported to android.

http://www.coveringweb.com/2010/09/ios-4-successfully-ported-to-htc-device.html
I'm sure there are lots of other vids out there.
well, my question is, where is this? did anyone ever make a working rom out of it? I have an incredible and even though ios is closed i would definitely love to try it, and lets be honest, ios is pretty smooth.
I know its slow, but i'd love to try it. have any android devs spent any time on this?
seriously, i know people would be interested in this rom if devs got it ported (to the incredible!!), as evidence, look how many people like miui
where is it?
thanks

there is a ton about this on google^
I know they say it runs super slow, but if someone worked on it i'm sure they could speed it up. (and it be pretty awesome anyway)
the thing is, i dont even know where the rom is (or if it exists, im starting to think it doesnt)
why the hell would you get an android phone to put an iphone theme(rom) on it???? sounds kinda stupid to me, why not just go buy an iphone??
Well it would be pretty cool to try. And the iPhone apps are pretty nice if they'd work.
The ui and apps are pretty good.

i love the idea of porting iphone apps on android phone. but i simply hate their UI. kinda boring for me....
If you love ios looks but still love android you should try the MIUI rom, better, faster, and its based on android..

Not iOS
Sorry to burst your bubble but it's not iOS. You can see that the wallpaper scrolls as the user scrolls through the different home screens. That implementation is only on Android. It's probably just a cleverly made skin (right down to folders) used to simulate the iPhone. The two OS' are written in two different Linux kernels which makes it incompatible to be ported.
Yeah it would be neat though.
MIUI with the iphone theme installed?

MIUI vs Android

What is MIUI?

It's an Android user interface, much like HTC Sense is to Android or Samsung Touch Wiz is to Android and so forth.
Got it.
Thanks.
One more question;
Is it the next step in Sense evolution or just an alternative to Sense?
its like wearing a tracksuit or a suit, in the end, its still you underneath...

So Sense is a casual outfit while MIUI is a tux.
A new outfit for androids closet.
Has anyone tried it out yet?
MIUI is a look like IPhone interface but with android body.

A better question is why you posting this in here????
Please read forum titles before choosing which one to post in.
Lets keep this post. But wud be good if a mod can move to the Q&A fori.
MIUI is an iPhone look alike. The interface is fast and smooth. But i reflashed into another. Not cos i dont like the ROM or the Chef. But IMHO i ****ing dont like the iPhone interface. When you look at iPhone what you see is tons of icons which you cant move here and there to create a cool homescreen.
Just in case, if i have hurt any iFans. Lemme say the iPhone 4 is a real killer. But when it comes to my HD2, its the huntee. Equipped with Android....iPhone 4 shud be afraid...very very afraid.
You have to follow the rule, this is not the place to ask this question.
Google it before you post, you can easily find the MIUI website and you will get all you need to know about MIUI from there...

MIUI is more like a homebrew UI rather than a corporate product. It isn't really an alternative to Sense in that it's not a launcher you can install on a Sense-based ROM or any other ROM like you can with alternative launchers. MIUI generally comes cooked into Android ROMs. And it is almost identical to iOS. It would be more accurate to consider MIUI an iOS with widgets.
Fair enough question which was answered efficiently, could a Mod please move this thread to Q&A, it's useful for others with the same question.
MIUI
hey guys, i still didn't find a answer to my question: does have any advantage on speed or something like that by use MIUI rom replacing the original android?
Thanks every one
Same **** different package

With a post like this no one else will probably bother answering...
Search in the SGS i9000 THEME & APPS section, if its not there, it doesn't exist...
and funnily enough
there is one app i know that can do what you want. i'm going to ask you a few questions though before i give the link.
1- you bought an android phone just to use it as iphone?
2- you do know that sgs looks like iphone 3gs, do you?
3- it will be very embarrassing if iphone fans ask if your phone is iphone, no?
I'm one of android purists. i can't stand people that makes their phone looks like iOS or even Windows Phone 7.5. i hate MIUI rom for being such an iOS wannabe, but i do like some of it's apps, namely MiLocker, MIUI music player, and MIUI file explorer. i also hate people that use iphone ringtones on their android or dumb phone.
ok that's all i have to say. this is the download link
Hit the thanks button, will ya? that's how to make friends in xda. ok take care now.
As I said I like ONE feature of the I phone. That is all.
That link didn't work :s
Found something similar notification toaster lite isn't listed.

ios

hi

I've not seen this before, i'd find it highly unlikely that it'll be done on this device, be nice to see it but i can't see it happening.
You can search on youtube or here is link which i saw. Later i searched for more video's and found many such video's.

It's just a custom rom that pretends to be iOS, this is what used in fake iPhones as well, they run android with a custom launcher.
Doubt this is real. How could a foreign os run on the android hardware systems? Theyre a completely different architecture. Quite convenient hes in a dark room every time
I think this video is fake... If you look better the indian guy is flashing this https://forum.xda-developers.com/a310/development/rom-ios-micromax-canvas-a311-t3383301 on a xiaomi redmi..
Btw, if you want the iOS look there are lot of launcher, locker, notifications bar etc around the play store :good:
EDIT: and if you go to look further you can see that is always android but with iOS like apps and the launcher is iLauncher that you can easy find on google search
Heavily themed Android ROM. Nothing more nothing less.
You're going to need to get yourself an iPhone if you crave iOS.

I do too, but pretty much every stock or custom ROM available for Android devices is going to be better than iOS, at least in my opinion. If you want iOS, you may as well just get an iPhone!

Lolzzzzz if i can effort to buy also i won't buy iPhone. As i said i like to use different rom. Now a day's all custom rom look are same just some tweaks and options change rest all same. No harsh feeling but i like to try different looks ROMs too. That's why i ask for this rom. Before there use to be port of rom from different devices.
As a user i shared my point, am not a developer.
Thanks for the response everyone.

Even though you feel all ROMs are generally the same, Android is still a lot more customizable than iOS. As other users have said, you can find a custom launcher/icon pack/etc. to make your device look like an iOS one. Try making an iPhone look like an Android.
Not trying to sway your opinion one way or the other, but there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of options for the type of thing you want. You can either theme/customize your Android device to look like iOS, or just get an iOS device.

It's a fake... it's purely impossible, it's not the same architecture, framework, components.
If you want iOS, boy a iPhone

Sorry to dash your dreams OP - iOS is restricted strictly to Apple devices, I wouldn't be surprised if someone attempted to get it on another phone that wasn't an iPhone, but failed repeatedly.

Easy.. just buy an Oppo phone. It's an iPhone clone. Even the Android OS looks like iOS.
