Hi guys. I got my hands on some DI14 files from the Mesmerize and decided to cook up a ROM. This ROM is very lightweight (removed as much touchwiz stuff as I could), and is very similar the version I have released for the Fascinate.
[warning]THIS IS ONLY FOR THE USCC MESMERIZE!!! DON'T FLASH ON ANY OTHER PHONE!!! IF YOU DO, I WILL LAUGH AT YOU!!![/warning]
Features:
Latest versions of :
Google Maps
ADWLauncher
Google Voice
Google Street View
Superuser
YouTube
Aosp or additional apps:
DeskClock
FileManager
Gallery3D
Mms
Music Player
Other stuff:
bash / bmlunlock / busybox / nano / redbend_ua / strace binaries are included
fully functional terminfo for bash
lots of extra ringtones/sounds pulled from aosp
SGS boot and shutdown animations
LOTS of stuff removed, don't have a list, sorry.
Also included in the package is a custom kernel, which allows use of aosp style bootanimations (among other things) and has been optimized for speed and reliability. - kernel has been removed
Enjoy.

WARNING: I do not have a Mesmerize so I cannot test anything myself. This ROM has been tested by a few people, but, if you have issues try wiping data, otherwise, please let me know of any bugs. Thanks.
testing now...
Flashed this a few minutes ago. Seems much snappier than stock. JT, can't thank you enough. I'll report back after I've used it a bit.
~Sophos
about to test it thanks
seems to work well the lock screen seems quicker but im having some pauses when in some apps. was wondering the name of the twitter and facebook feed app that comes standard on mesmerize liked that app but found it was missing in this rom
8hrs and going well. Couldn't get custom boot animation or BLN to work with kernel update so I flashed back to the 1130 kernel. Once I finish the final touches on this boot animation I'll upload it.

They are missing because they are bloat. Hence the "Super" in Super Clean ROM. The less in it from the start, the cleaner the build. There can and will be variations to this ROM, I'm sure, now that JT has been kind enough to give us a starting point. The pauses you are experiencing, I believe, are writes. When a ROM is deodexed, the .odex files are placed back into the apk for various reasons, including themes, causing the system to have to have to perform a few extra writes to cache. This should speed up as you use your phone. As I said, I believe this is correct, but I'm still learning so this may not be exactly what is happening. In testing the previous builds, I noticed the same thing and that this went away with use.
The only thing that I see as an issue is BLN doesn't appear to work. Oh well. Maybe in a future build.
Any way to get the original messaging working i like the way it shows the messages and maybe your navigator from uscc.

All stock deodexed apk's located here http://ge.tt/3mWj9TK in a zip file. Files are not necessarily named the same in apk form as in the app drawer. Also, not all apk's are apps from the app drawer.
As usual, use at your own risk. Make a backup before you use.... yada yada yada.

Thanks... I'm looking through and I can't find two apps, not sure if they're there, or if they are, what the actual .apk names are... First is the stock Messaging app and the second is the My Navigator app. Not a huge fan of the messaging in this rom, if I can restore an apk to get back what it was like I'd be much happier.

Stock messaging app is mms.apk, but we are having a problem trying to get it back in the ROM. It seems to be the only one that doesn't want to go back in at this time, but it is being looked in to. My Navigator is USCC_Samsung_Galaxy_S-1059.apk I believe. I know it is one of the ones with USCC or uscellular in it.
i am 99.9% sure it wont
but does the wii mote work now? or is there any hope hat it will at some time
anyone flashed? I'm running fine arhd, but I want also try new miui...

Themes are working..

which firmware (i think 3.32)?
Want to try but servers from miui.com are slow as hell.....

Used V4 on the SGS when it was unstable, i loved it. Been a galnet user for ong time, so my loyalty lies with him.

Haven't really dug to much into the rom today (working) but a few things in no particular order:
1. Turning off wallpaper scrolling (Launcher settings > wallpaper scroll type) helps Launcher lag but doesn't alleviate completely.
2. Android keyboard will continue to crash until you go in and manually change default input to "touch input"
3. Some market errors.
4. New lockscreen for v4 miui is neat and not completely translated in this version (functionally fine).
5. Comes "overclocked" to 1.5.
6. Gps locked in about 10 seconds, first time.
Plus than miui, is a desensed miui skinned!
The miui framework is the only real miui thing in the rom
Radiofm, camera,keyboard and some settings are sense
So far it's alright. A bit sluggish and since this is my first MIUI, it's kinda odd, no app drawer, different icons, etc...
There are some chinese characters on the lockscreen, but the UI looks uber slick.
Feels a lot like an iPhone, in terms of restrictions.

I believe that's one of the main points of MIUI is the iPhone feel. However it does have some neat features built-in and the organization is slick and tidy.
My favorite is you can record your calls in the phone app.

Will have to check that out. It is a bit annoying having all your apps on screen. There's no way to hide them, unlike in the iPhone via SBSettings, or is there?
The launcher is a bit sluggish, but it's pretty stable to be used daily. Battery Indicator doesn't work, that sucks.

You can create a folder and then put all your apps in it to make an "App Drawer".

That's not much of help. The whole reason of an app drawer is for organizational purposes. It consists of two tabs, Applications & Widgets.
Nonetheless, my experience with MIUI v4 has been great. I've noticed that after several reboots (done purposely) the chinese characters translate themselves, I guess rebooting sets most things fine. The lock screen however still has some chinese. There are some Sense elements here and there, the keyboard, copy & paste functions but it's fine. I personally prefer it over any keyboard even AOSP. Videos play fine. As for the launcher, set the transition effect to [Classic (no overshoot)] for a smoother swipe between home screens.
I've attached a screenshot
****UNSIGNED ZIP, MAY HAVE TO TOGGLE SIGNATURE VERIFICATION******
rom removed until incoming call fixed
v21y radio by default. for v21e flash old-radio.zip after flashing rom.
Gapps= Google Apps GB
v21e support= v21e Baseband support
This is only an Alpha, please report bugs, flash GAPPS.zip after flashing for google apps, basic instructions: wipe data/cache, install Archive.zip, install gapps.zip, reboot, wait until fully started, reboot again.
I take no responsibility for any damage or injuries that result from installing this rom, nor the implosions / rips in the space-time continuum that this rom may or may not cause. bug reports are welcomed. specifically, is the radio working properly for you? this LiGux is from the maker of the Galaxy Ace port, and the base is cm 7.2.0, kernel is from EaglesBlood. Has the simple mobile / straight talk / t-mobile APNs already added and is set by default with the CyanBread theme. Any questions feel free to ask in thread or PM me
CHANGELOG:
0.1: Initial port, with stock CM kernel
0.2: Switched to EGB kernel, added wifi calling, made slight build.prop edits, added amazon app-store
0.3:~PLANNED~ ICS version port
Any screenshots?? Nd let me b the 1st to say thank yhu nd welcum!
Could we either get an update with WiFi calling added or a working zip for this particular rom? I have a zip but it wont connect and I even selected the correct apn as this one has straight talk and t mobile. I used the correct base band but WiFi calling just wont connect........ I'm loving this ROM, its always a breath of fresh air to play with something new
Thanks
update now out
This is what the OS looks like stock, not sure about this one, though.

It is very similar looking to the LG Optimus 3D and LG Thrill stock OS.

Installing now, will use whatever kernel you provided. You should really post some sort of changelog or a comprehensive list of features/add ons that either came stock with this ROM, or that you have done yourself.
I'm doing this blindly because I want to try it out, I don't see anyone else here who has tried it! haha.

Thank you for testing it, also providing the screenshots, only differences are the boot animation and the lock screen that comes stock. right now i'm working on a proper ICS port, this is still my alpha, i'll get right on making a passable change log!

So is this technically just a heavily themed CM7 version of the Ligux? Right now I have it sitting on the initial login screen, i'll let you know when I have everything running properly and whether or not it can be used with say the Morfic ELP kernel of the latest Faux 50b6 kernel.
Right off the bat; screen off animation is broken and the graphic doesn't work in the tradition "tv off" animation. Turn off the animation for now.
Signal acquired immediately, which is a good thing, using the stock kernel.
Scrolling through the menu options is a bit choppy, I just flashed with nothing else loaded on the phone, so I'm pretty sure it's the ROM.
I'll come back to this ROM when some things get sorted out, or when the true port in ICS happens.

I like a lot of sleek visuals, which I guess is why I like MIUI, second would be ICS, then CM7...I don't really care for stock GB ROMs, but they're the most stable so far for the new baseband.
Also, with the link that I provided for the stock Ligux images, is that what you're trying to do? The notification bar and the lock screen you're trying to port over to CM7, or do all of that with the actual ICS port?

yes, it is exactly that, the little "comic bubble" with options comes up when you tap in the top right corner, and it is designed for the New baseband already. if you want the v21e baseband support you must flash the old_radio.zip i put above

Whenever you're done with the new update I'll flash it, if it starts to STOP looking like the traditional CM7 I'll gladly run it for a while and see how it works out.
I want to try this as well, will wait for 021
Good to see new builds coming in
it'll probably be until tomorrow, ran into an issue with my build.prop mods and the phone app, crashes on incoming call, looking into a fix...might just scrap the cm7 version...

Oh how I hate the Phone.apk crashing on incoming call issues.
Camera doesn't work...same issue as what I had with lewaos port and mookeos port. Photos work fine but not video recording.

okay, 0.2.1 is coming from the samsung galaxy s 4g. but maybe i could get a little help with the phone.apk? Tried to use your LeWa as a base...didn't even crash...just...nothing?
Well with the camera I'm not sure, I didnt have problems, then they were reported, I did a new built where camera is working but I didnt upload it because of the Phone.apk When I used a previous once that works it bring some aesthetic bugs and FC, but I also noticed that livewallpaper support was not working, so I decided not to upload it as there was nothing new, not even new bugs.
With the camera, I'm not sure what is the isue, maybe the mediaprovider app? Check that out.

thanks for the advice, i'm trying with the ICS version however i am getting an issue with the port...not sure what it is yet...might have to make it 4.0.3 based instead of 4.0.4? but it may be a bit before i have anything worthy of release. right now i'm just working on trying to find a proper MIUI to try to put on top of the stock rom that boots...if that works i'll release it.
I can't use any AOSP/CM ROMs because none of them are compatible with Fitbit.
I dislike most of the stock Samsung apps. Touchwiz, Messaging, Browser, even phone and contacts. Is there a ROM that includes or lets me select via Aroma all the default JB apps? I know I can probably download the apps and replace the ones in /system/app but I'd like a ROM built around it if that exists.
Failing that, where can I find the default stuff? Maybe someone has made a zip I can just flash?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275376
I think andybones rom is the best but that is my opinion. Its got the stock feel you are asking for and removes most of the extra junk that bloats the phone.

I'm not gonna lie, that would be pretty awesome. I bet a lot of other people would dig it too.
Personally I find Google Nexus style stock extremely bland, but to each his own. There are some AOSP type ROMs in the development section, but I might lean toward the more stable ROMs like Synergy, Hyperdrive, MORA, and a few others that have the stability and functionality of TW base, but let you configure the look and app selection to be TW, Nexus, HTC, Sony, etc.

I came from a Galaxy Nexus to the GS3 several months ago. I've been trying to get used to the Samsung-style apps and just don't like them.
I can't run an AOSP rom because they're not compatible with the BT 4.0 required by the Fitbit I use, so I need the TW base. I also don't really like Chrome on Android.
I'm weird, sure. If I could have any phone right now it would be a GS4 or HTC One with stock Android. I really, really miss having a Nexus device.

OK, everyone likes different looks, I got that.. I'm still not understanding why you are not happy with a full functional ROM that looks like and runs mostly nexus style apps and yet offers other features and custom items if you want or not if you don't.
Seems like the best of both worlds.

... Do you know of such a ROM? That's what this thread is asking for. I'm looking for a ROM that includes, or includes options to install, the Nexus-style apps.
Is there a simple way to just replace the browser with the stock Android browser? What about the stock Android launcher?
Whats so different about googles stock launcher vs Samsung's that makes you want to change it so badly? I use googles all the time on my other devices but don't really notice a big difference except for the lack of user agent options in Samsung's browser. Anyways, you could download a launcher with customizable, icons like adw then go to the market and download quick ics browser. Problem solved.
Or you can just download google chrome
Thanks for the replies guys, but none of that really addresses my question. Is it possible to replace the Samsung browser with the stock JB browser? If so, how? I don't like Chrome.

As far as a "stock JB launcher" you can achieve that with Nova launcher.
The stock JB browser is officially Chrome. You may be thinking of the stock browser in ICS which was a blue globe icon. If you want that, download the latest CM 10.1 and extract the browser out of that zip file and install it on your own.

Masik, Eu and this are almost same. There are very little differences like a bit more fluent performance and a little bit more battery other than that all the features are same (miui features).

EU is close to stock, just some Chinese blunder removed and a bit tweaked for Europe. It works a bit smoother than stock but it's pretty close. Otherwise they would not get the blessings from MI (warranty is maintained).
Masik has a several of these so called safety-features removed, that in the end are mostly scanning functions calling home. Also some background processes had been tweaked to reduce system burden, such as ads. Therefore, Masik has a lower memory footprint and works feel-able crackier as compared to stock.
What is IMO needed is a version that is cut down to the bare system, for example like stock Lineage, does not come with any of these "safety" features except probably Xiaomi account, cloud and Themes, that does not affect ARB, no forced-encryption and no system file protection, allows installing xPosed framework. In other words a slim MIUI, that can be 100% installed, reflashed, exchangeable just like any other developer ROM.

They are not really the same, at least in my opinion. EU and miui Hellas are almost the same but masik differs under the hood as well as in the user experience. It has many extra modifications and customisation options. I mean, not as many as miui pro has(although there are some extra things to opt during the installation). But this one is free, and perhaps is more optimized and has more work put in it.

EU is close to stock, just some Chinese blunder removed and a bit tweaked for Europe. It works a bit smoother than stock but it's pretty close. Otherwise they would not get the blessings from MI (warranty is maintained).
Masik has a several of these so called safety-features removed, that in the end are mostly scanning functions calling home. Also some background processes had been tweaked to reduce system burden, such as ads. Therefore, Masik has a lower memory footprint and works feel-able crackier as compared to stock.
What is IMO needed is a version that is cut down to the bare system, for example like stock Lineage, does not come with any of these "safety" features except probably Xiaomi account, cloud and Themes, that does not affect ARB, no forced-encryption and no system file protection, allows installing xPosed framework. In other words a slim MIUI, that can be 100% installed, reflashed, exchangeable just like any other developer ROM.

100% agreed. Also, for me stock android experience is a little bit more enjoyable and aesthetically pleasing. But there are some things in miui that I can't do without, such as miui system apps, some features (for example scrolling screenshot) and especially mi cloud and thus miui framework. I really love the way it work. But I am not sure whether it is possible or how hard it is to implement part of miui in a stock android rom. I wish I had the skills to do it.
what about arb4? is ti fw-less?

They are not really the same, at least in my opinion. EU and miui Hellas are almost the same but masik differs under the hood as well as in the user experience. It has many extra modifications and customisation options. I mean, not as many as miui pro has(although there are some extra things to opt during the installation). But this one is free, and perhaps is more optimized and has more work put in it.

when you remove them phone goes into bootloop.

A radically stripped down MIUI. Not adding things as what some people suggested there. From the plain table then you could set up some dishes.
