[REQ] MIUI for Hero??

I saw a post over in the N1 and Droid forums for this ROM developed over in china.
It looks pretty awesome and I was just wondering if there was anyway or anyone working on porting this for us? Yes it looks a little iPhoney but it's still a nice looking ROM.
You can google MIUI to find the original website, but you'll need to translate it to be able to read all of it.
Sorry if someone already posted about this, did a search though and didn't see anything here. Thanks to anyone who helps or replies.

Just did a quick google, and come to find out it's zenulator's (Dunno who did it) rom and he's wanting everyone porting the rom to different androids to put source link and credit on their threads.
Here's the link to his code:
http://code.google.com/p/zen-droid/downloads/list
And here's the link to the post he put up about credit (and a badass vid of the ui!)
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/zenulator/84360-rom-zen-miui-v2-android-2-2-miui.html
And here's the official link *hint* use google chrome to view, so you can just hit translate to read it!!
http://www.miui.com/index.php
also.. read some of the forum. Damn those folks hatin' on us westerners/english folk (on translation anyways)
Dunno if that can be ported yet because 2.2 JUST became stable for our hero, however I can't say it's at all impossible because he has the source posted. I would be interested in seeing this myself.

Would be awesome if it could be ported. It looks nice and smooth. Something like that could perhaps convince me I don't need sense

If we had this a lot of people would be convinced they don't need sense. I've been using the wildfire port as my daily but this ROM has my mouth watering.

I would definately like to have this on my device!
Awesome ROM, hopefully we hear from Zen soon. *hint hint*

Me too I would like this on my device

i dont like it..maybe its just me. it looks way to much like the iphone to me. It would be a good to theme it tho..i could deal with that maybe a lil more.

Noob: Is this already out or am I way off?

Would be very difficult to port, as the hardware is so different for our phone

its not zenulators rom..
"I enjoyed porting MIUI to my droid and sharing it with everyone else."
he ported the rom not created it..
but what i can't understand is, the hero (well android in general) is so much more diverse in what can be done with it, why make it look like an iphone??? i feel like this is a step backwards in developing.. the iphone has done this already.. why do we want to adopt this now?

Personally, I love it. I love the way the iphone look also. I just don't like the functionality of the iphone. But the cartoonish look of it can be pleasing.

Just because the main framework of the rom is similar to iPhone looks, doesn't mean it can't be themed. We want it based on functionality and speed, not looks.

I'd trade my hero on cm6 for an iPhone any day. Much much faster than the hero. Now an evo...that's another story

Hmm, this is true. We could just get the port, and then theme it like Sense if we wanted... how badass would that be?

Miui is built for hdpi devices. You will have to build it from source and modify it for mdpi.
There is no reason this can't be done. Since its essentially a heavily modified aosp 2.2.
It runs great on my MOTO droid.
I just don't have the time to make it work on the hero.
Also its rumored cyanogen and crew is working on incorporating some of the features into cyanogenmod.

You are one lucky man to be running this.
I'd like to see Cyanogen use as much of Miui's features as he possibly can.

For anyone interested in tracking the MIUI porting process, DelsaDj and a bunch of devs are on it. It's slow work, though.

Very First Sense Rom For The G2X.

Am i the only one that would like to see a sense rom on our G2x? I think it would look pretty sick. I know we are early in the development stages, but do you guys think we will get one? If so what port or sense like rom would you LOVE to see on this device.

Sense was cool for a few days for me but i don't prefer it. Now i like the pure androidness But the g2x is pretty popular so i'm sure we'll have a sense rom.

There is a sense launcher

AFAIK Sense is built specifically for HTC hardware specs and there is no source code for it so porting it over would be extremely hard.

Just ordered the G2x , switching from blackberry
Hi,
I had enough of blackberry and enough of AT&T so im switching to Android . Soooo.. What is Sense rom and touchwiz?

Sense is the custom interface HTC puts on all their phones. Touchwiz is Samsungs UI. They do it to try and set their phones apart from one another in a market full of android phones. You dont have to use them though if you dont like them.

I'm pretty sure you can put the TouchWiz Launcher on any phone. I'm almost positive that I had installed it on my Nexus One but removed that crap within seconds.
I know for a fact I installed LG's launcher too.
Most of that stuff isn't anything but a bunch of fluff. While I prefer Stock, I do know that Sense is actually built into the rom more ways then one and you have to have the whole rom built around it.

Didn't they release a sense sdk and make it open source? Or did they just give devs tools/apis to develop for it?

i think

i think they jsut gave out an sdk to make apps that will only work on sense devices.
if you like sense try out go launcher. it has much of what sense does without the lag. the weather app and live wallpaper is as awesome as sense(maybe not as the new weather animations) dont know but they are pretty good.
kinda a mix betwen muiu/apple and sense. its a really good launcher and has all accompaning apps to go with it.

Not another freaking thread about sense rom's... (trolling moment)

ROM wishlist

the Mytouch 4g development crew is growing at a huge rate, and while I'm obviously happy about that, I've found that all of the new ones create ROMS based off of Cyanogenmod or AOSP ROMS. That's great! It's a wonderful starting point, but we have now gathered an extent of probably more than 5-6 AOSP ROMS that are mostly identical. So I made this thread so people can list the things they want in ROMs so developers can look at this and see what people want and will use. I'll make a list that is divided in to sections such as add-ons, ports, and anything else you'd like for me to add.
In addition, I will add links to all items on the list that are released.
Suggestions:
Device Ports:
- Droid Charge
- Dell Streak
- Sony Ericsson Device
System Ports:
- WORKING Motoblur
- Touchwiz
Add-ons:
-Easily implemented CRT screen-off animation for any ROM
-Sense items (Like contacts, dialer, and camera) working in AOSP ROMS like CM7
Developers! Here's your chance to make something unique that people want! We're counting on you!

Reserved in case this thread is actually successful.

A Motoblur Port is out already, but half of its ass is missing... TouchWiz, in your dreams maybe... Droid Charge Port would be nice. How about a Dell Streak port?

Also a Sony xperia port would be nice
I've also been looking for a fast stock aosp themed froyo Rom....haven't been successful so far ....

A mysence rom with a themed black clock that actually flips would be hard!

Alright, I've added some of the more supported ideas. I don't think I'll add them to the OP unless more than one person wants it. But once again, does anyone know of a way to have a poll in the OP?

Dell streak FTW!

I would like to see a Honeycomb themed sense 3.0/2.1 hybrid rom.....and working yahoo video..
Speaking of ROMS....if I understand AOSP correctly it is supposed to be 100% stock Android so how is there so many copies?...seems to me there should just be themes not ROM after ROM?
I would love to see Devs complete a ROM (finish all the bugs before moving on....reminds me a lot of Samsung...they spit out phones so fast they suck at support or updating)...no offense to all the work here but there is how many ROMS that are "oh so close" left for dead out there...
The liquid ROM looks pretty hot too....

Hint: honeysense... HoneySense One is already out but if you're eager, flash it. Otherwise, wait for HoneySense Two.

I'd like to see...................................this be moved to the General forum

Why is that? It does specifically deal with development. This thread could be helpful to developers in deciding what type of Rom to make.

Dude stop posting in Android Development unless you have a ROM or somthing worth while. Geez!!

I would like the new cm7 feature of permission editing as a must on all roms and a sense Rom with a custom music app like the latest miui, which by the way is badazz

New soon to be owner, quick question?

hey everyone, just signed up for xda so here this goes. i am getting a samsung infuse later today, and i was wondering if there is a theme to make it look like the htc inspire. if so could you name it and maybe post a screen shot? thank you

A Sense theme for the Infuse? Nope. You'd better dust off your themeing skills and jump on it!

Actually.... with miu and cm7 there are a few sense themes, even the sense 3.0 lockscreen (which i happen to have if you want it)

So theres like 1 theme thats represents sense? Ehh. I guess.its.not that important. What are some.cool ones then?
