I am using ics stunner and wanted to have the MIUI theme for settings, phone, and contacts etc... not the launcher.. is that possible?
You can't get for Settings. To do that, you must install an actual Miui ROM.
For the contacts and phone, you can install replacements that look/function like it. I can't think of it off the top of my head, but there are some.
I don't know why you would want those two things from Miui ROM, I think they're pretty meh (unless there was a drastic change soon), the best portions of Miui is the Theme Manager, Lockscreen, Launcher (its unique), Music and Settings portions.

I'm currently on Trip's MiUI, and I really can't get myself out of it, but at the same time I really want to go back to CM7.
Are there any amazing themes for CM7 + ADWEX that would compare to the theming that MiUI has? I'm running NEON (Blue) right now. Also, I really love the custom lockscreen's that MiUI has, anything comparable using CM7 + ADWEX?
widget locker which isnt free, but worth the price you pay for the lockscreen
and if you like the miui launcher, theres one on the android app thread
I went back to CM7 last night. I got WidgetLocker, and I'm trying to figure out how to get those custom icons on the lockscreen. I wanted a minimalist approach to it. I want a similar lockscreen to the MiUI one where it's a wheel and you just drag the centre to the app icons. I don't think that can be done on WidgetLocker though.
I have the miui theme on my widget locker. You have to go to the XDA thread for widget locker

Anyone know how to get the MIUI 1.10.7 launcher working on CM7. This would be amazing and switch me over. Thanks!
And the damn Dialer for christ sakes! The MIUI dialer is just awesomesauce.
me too would like to have the miui launcher up and running on cm7 and others...
for the dialer you should take a look at exdialer in the market, it is an exact copy of the miui dialer and contacts, but it comes with even more functions.
But there is no launcher, just put all apps to home screen.
+1 for dialer, there are good ones but nothing like having it integrated.
NVIDIA NEVER AGAIN!

Close enough.
Desktop vizualizer makes icfons at half size, with no way to fix as far as i can tell, i've told them but have gotten no reply.
folder organizer items work, but it places the shortcuts as a widget instead of a shortcut like it did in honeycomb.
so right now i have no way to add normal shortcuts to my homescreen with a custom icon.
does anyone have any apps that work properly?
I used adw for my custom shortcuts

not really a lot of help. i'm not asking for a custom launcher. ICS launcher is just fine. i just want to be able to actually make custom icons like i could in honeycomb.
i find it really hard to believe that no one running this tablet on ICS with a stock launcher is using custom icons. come on.

Have you tried Nova Launcher? Its basically the Stock Launcher, but allows for editing/resizing Icons and Widgets. Plus, you can install Icon packs for ADW and manually assign Icons of your choice to whatever you want...then resize them if you want.
Nova has a free version, and a Prime version with a few extra fun features. Both are in the Market.
yeah i've tried nova and the others, and personally i don't like/want to use them. i find the stock launcher just fine.
i'm just annoyed because for the first time in android history, i can't make custom icons work right. and i'm just shocked that it seems that no one else here is using custom icons on a stock launcher.
there are some ics roms out there already? are you rooted?

So you seem to be stuck on using the Stock launcher.
Well if you had tried Nova as you said, then I got to know, what about Nova didn't you like? I mean, Nova is basically stock from the look, and it adds the ability to use custom icons or ones from an icon pack, and allows you to resize them...which is what you are complaining about.
So, what is it about needing/wanting to use stock launcher, when Nova is stock with a few added features, one of which is using custom icons.
i don't have my TF rooted, so i lose the widgets menu, it doesn't have the tablet transitions, app drawer is 5x5 instead of 8x5. and to be honest, it's not as smooth as the stock ics launcher for me.
and honestly, i'm just still in a shock that apparently everyone is just using nova or adw.
i refuse to believe that i am the only person on this forum with an ICS transformer that is using the stock launcher with custom icons. that cannot be possible.
So whats the best MIUI rom for the nexus s samoled??
I really like the stock look on orginal ics 4.0.4, but the battery life doesnt satisfy me enought.. So if i choose a miui rom based on 2.3.6 instead of 4.0 versions of miui, is the battery going to be better??
And i would really like to have example 1, 2. 3, top miui roms
Would really appriciate it
I've been sticking to MIUIEXPERIENCE since it has the Xperia launcher included in the ROM. Most MIUI roms don't have a launcher so there is no app drawer.
Since MIUI sticks to the Apple interface, you won't have a launcher in the rom. If you choose Catalyst or Oodie Prime, which are just as well put together, you can download ZEAM launcher form the market or any other launcher if you prefer the app drawer.
Also, all MIUI roms have an app called Themes that comes with it. You use this app to download hundreds of different layouts and icons, including ICS themes.
Hello all,
New Galaxy S2 user here. Coming from a line of exclusively HTC Sense phones and ROMs.
I'm wondering if it's possible (and easy) to change the icons for default apps in CM9 or TW based ROMs? Specifically the "Messaging" icon - I hate the "smiley" face. Makes me feel 12 years old again.
I've done a few searches, but I'm not looking to replace the entire icon set or the ROM or theme... just one icon.

The hard way is to download the apk, open it up, replace the images with the ones you want, repackage it, and reinstall it. The easy way is to use a launcher that allows you to change the icon. I know Apex and Nova do, not sure about any others.

Also check out "Desktop Visualizer" in the market .
But as already mentioned ....the different launchers are the best & easiest way.
Holo launcher is another one.
Good Luck.

Go Launcher as well. Go, Nova, and Apex have the ability to use icon sets made for each other.
Hmmm... going to an entirely different launcher seems like overkill, but I guess if it works...
There used to be apps on the Market that would allow you to create shortcuts with different icons (BetterCut comes to mind, but the dev pulled it from the Market entirely).
If you don't want a new launcher, try Desktop Visualizer (though I have yet to figure out how to get it to use an existing icon pack). There are a lot of options in it and it's a great program.
