So do I, it's awesome
I've played with this theme a couple of times. I find it hilarious, but as with TW itself, it feels too busy to me, I keep finding myself reverting to the CM 10.2 System theme
I agree

By the way, there's a new TouchWiz theme by thomassafca based on the Galaxy S5 now, and a newly-released LG G3 theme I adore but have yet to wait for a CM11 stable version so I can enjoy it without a hitch.
If you (like me,) enjoy Thomas' themes, feel free to type "pub:thomassafca" (without quotes) in any play store search bar to see his full lineup. I personally bought several of them.
They are very convincing and often he is welcome to feedback via his email. Touchwiz is rather busy, but I enjoy LG G2 better because in CM 10.2, you can tell based on signal color whether or not the Wi-Fi AP connected has an internet connection, just like the system theme. Neat, huh? Tell me what you think.

Just wondering if there's any CM7 themes out yet besides DarkGinger. I'm looking for something red really, but was looking for some options besides DarkGinger. About to flash my first CM7 and I just have the need for a theme to it =]
Not really, I think it's a lot to ask of the themers with the CM7 builds in such a state of flux. I wouldn't expect to see any decent themes until CM stabilizes a bit. I doubt anyone could keep up to the CM7 team with sometimes twice daily builds.
That said, you do realize that they're building in a theme chooser to CM7 right? It's in it's early stages, but it's in the latest builds.
-R
I did read about the theme chooser. Which just makes it all the more valid. If there's a theme chooser, couldn't people make themes for that? I am loading #10 now to check things out, but I just generally don't like my phone unless it's themed. I usually prefer red, but I just got a new case for my phone that has blue flames on the back, so even a blue one might work for me right now...... =]

Oh, definitely. I think you'll just have to wait for the creative guys to catch up. Kind of hard to develop though for a target that's moving as fast as CM7 is.
I will add that if the themes thing is a showstopper for you, you'll probably be somewhat disappointed by CM7's support at this point. It's definitely in it's early iterations.

I ran one of the stable CM6's and it had FC's within minutes of first boots, so I quickly abandoned it. I've been running CM7 for a few hours already and only FC was from a different market I flashed. Restored and all has been well. Typically I'm a Sense guy, but I'm liking how snappy my DInc is with CM7. Battery life will be the real test, but so far, so good.

Interesting. 6.1 final was probably one of the most stable ROM's I've run. Still holding a nandroid of it "just in case". Even with that one though I couldn't find a theme I really liked. Like you I really don't like the stock phone experience.
With the Galaxy S2 and the brand new Touchwiz 4.0 interface coming out, do you think we'll see a port for our captivates, or for that matter, any of the previous generation Galaxy S models?
Depends on what the demand is for it. And if it is better. As most of us hate it now lol.
I'm sure someone will give it a try but whats the difference? I have not seen TW4.0 yet
There are many changes in design cues. More rectangular widgets, dots on the top moved to the bottom, etc.
I love CheeseWiz, I may try it.
Would porting an s2 rom even be possible? It's for sale for about a grand in europe, so I don't know if we'll see a system dump anytime soon with prices like that

I'd be willing to try it, just to try something new and to see if it is cool at all. I mean, it's not like I don't already have TWLauncher_3.0 Frozen w/ TiBu and I'm running GO Launcher.
I mean, it looks awesome, but it is samsung.....
They make some awesome things, but then if there is a problem, it'll never get fixed, even after working on an update for infinity years....
What are some new features in the new TWlauncher?

Just google Touchwiz 4.0 and watch some of the videos of it.
It looks from the videos I've been watching to be much better than CheeseWhiz 3. I'm sure that there's still plenty of room for improvement though. Wish we had a solid release date on the AT&T-compatible International model.

MIUI looks kewl but guess its a personal choice.
I would like to stick to Continuum or Cognition before we have a stable 2.3+ Rom for the Cappy. ADW launcher or launcher pro do the looks for me.

miui is cool if you spend time setting it up but the lack of an app drawer bothers me. i like things hidded, with miui i have to mess with folders which is annoying for a cronic rom flasher. i have slowed doen on the rom flashing because i am tired of the whole proceedure of making thing perfect.
As everyone are quite certain of ICS launch thats about to take place in Hong Kong of 19th of October . My question here is that , will MIUI be consistent in their regular updates? Will users perfer downloading MIUI Custom ROM even after the amazing UI coming inbuilt with ICS
Are they worth compromising? Whats the future of MIUI?
Or will MIUI look forward to adopt ICS Source code and alter it according to their needs keeping in mind their own alterations?
This thread is mainly for views/suggestions/opinions thats it
Cheers guys.
I hope miui disappear off the face of the earth.

Well I guess I did hear from quite a lot of people who actually make regular builds like Danny himself telling that MIUI is built using CM7 source. I dont know the inside news.
The UI of miui is great , but then still it gives you an Iphonish look , so why not users go and buy an Iphone rather then bricking their device with Iphone look alike UI leaving the great android UI behind.
Don't like MIUI, so couldn't care less.
Don't think MIUI is going anywhere. I mean why would they? There are already a ton of launchers out there that look far better than the ICS one we've been seeing lately, and MIUI is still here so why would one more change that?

Because even if MIUI ROM was never created, people would use launchers like Go Launcher , Claystone (new in the market ) and several others.
And I bet ICS UI is not worth leaving for launchers like LP , ADW , Go Launcher and QQ , definitely NO .
Rumors are speculating at a rapid pace for ICS not just because its a new addition to Google race , but because it also has good and user friendly interface (expected from google) .
MIUI will find some trouble I guess.

agreed
people would be better off learning how to theme, than to slap on pre-themed CM mods
I don't see anything amazing about the ICS UI, MIUI looks good, and it's pretty well known that it's from CM source. There's a lot better looking themes for MIUI too.
I think MIUI will take the ICS under its wings and will release same iPhone like UI in the future also
Wow, a lot of hate on here. Yay internets!
Personally on my model of phone (desire) cyanogenmod (incl 7.1) runs nowhere near as fast and has far worse battery life - doesn't even come close.The other launchers I really dislike in comparison too, not just the effects but the general "snappiness" of dashboard switching. Currently on MIUI XJ 1.9.9 and whilst it's unfortunate if there is code stolen without credit given - there are clearly things MIUI have done right/better otherwise I'd be straight back to CM (on CM imediashare works for one thing!). I occasionally get random resets on CM too unfortunately, 7.1 no change. Could be somewhat hardware related fault but I've only got one device!
As for ICS - I won't hold my breath on it being more usable or stable, but I would like to see what the MIUI teams could do with it as they've consistently made the most stable and fastest rom I've ever used.
Go MIUI GO
MIUI saved mine SGS. The proximity sensor crashes mine sgs and miui is the only rom that gives me the option to disable this sensor. So no more crashing on phonecalls. I started using miui because i had to. But i have a very good looking theme (NeonGT (with default font)) and i am loving using it. So ik hope MIUI stays as long as they give me the option to disable de proximity sensor.
Miui Fanboy..
I cant say whether Miui steal code.. but for the Sony Xperia x10, I was about to bin this phone.. such a dog of a phone.. until I put TripnRavers Miui onto it..
consequently i sold my iphone 4 that's how much i loved it.
Nearly all android phones can do the same things. Miui just looks sexy, not like its been stuck together with a widget here & there that dont match.. If google could copy the miui notifications area, I'd be happy.

About as much chance as there is of CM, AOKP or Paranoid Android supporting the I9500. Which is to say little to none, or at least in anything approaching a stable fashion and in the near future.
And isn't this BMarko's build off this very forum? If so you should link it on the opening post.

I'm not sure if it supports the I9500. This is on my T-Mobile variant. Yes, that is the rom and I will contact him with the link! Thanks for feedback!
Like a said in my post, it definitely does not support the I9500.

Didn't know how it was pronounced. I usually just pronounce it as "My UI" or I actually spell out the letters "M I U I". "My UI" sounds logical because you are able to customize it however you like so it can be your UI.

You will lose all the gimmicky features of touchwiz and the UI of course. That's about it though. You will gain custom abilities! The camera and gps work fine. If you flash it right you will get really good performance and battery life. I actually believe it was snappier and it had better data connection than stock touchwiz .

As of a few hours ago I shattered the screen on my beloved Mi2, for the second time, yet again resulting in an inoperable screen. I've decided to end terms with it, as much as I love it, but my contract is nearing end and I am considering getting an S4 recontracted tomorrow.
Have been looking up reviews and everything all night, especially for MIUI on an S4, as I've become ever so hooked with it on my Mi2.
How's the ROM going for you on that device? I noticed how unresponsive TouchWiz on the S4 was which really bestowed me, but seeing the CM videos and MIUI being run on this device, I'm feeling it!
edit: Backed up many theme settings such as iPhone font and emoji keyboard does the graphical emoji show on this ported MIUI, or is it the plain black/white variant made by Android?

I also replied to your comment on YouTube but it does run very nice on the S4. There are no serious bugs at all that I've encountered. I switch between MIUI V5 and CM10.1. For reviewing purposes I will be reviewing other ROMS.
Updated the OP with a quick case review! I know its not a rom but it is a really nice case that you should check out! I have a ROM review on the way though!
Hey guys. So the thing is I would like to see some sort of port of status bar icons from stock LG Lollipop to Kitkat. The ones on Kitkat just suck and I tried many modules, none of them are good enough, some aren't properly aligned, some make the phone lag (FSBI).
The thing is I used to have S3 and it would get all sort of status bar ports from GS4, GS5 and etc. and I would like to see the same for LG G2. I hate alarm icon especially and want to change it but can't find a proper alternative.
If it's possible, can anyone do that? If not, maybe teach me how to do it , at least kinda change that alarm icon myself? I tried googling but couldn't find any good guides for that, so.
hey i remember you from the s3 forum mate! unfortunately there really aren't much ports of these sorts for the g2, only some mods like iOS icons and aosp icons...why haven't you updated to LP yet by the way?what rom are you using?

Hey, nice to see you !
Btw yeah, that's what I'm talking about , all of them are mostly iOS-like. As for stock LP, I'm not using it because of that animation when going in to recents from an app, it looks bad, also performance isn't really that great, especially after long use. I prefer CM12 over stock LP so...
As for now I'm kinda sticking with stock Kitkat. It's the most 'complete' ROM as for me.
