Read this entire post please!
Build info
Warning if this causes any issues with your tab in any way I am in no way responsible. You chose to download and install it.. Read before you try
We are now officially an MIUI.us weekly build, please use the link to get the download direct from the miui.ui servers. The sites a good place to look for general MIUI.us support as well as that's all they do there.
Thanks
Thanks to Technomancer first! Without your CM7 kernel this would not have been possible, as well thanks to technomancer for the advice on fixing the rotation.
Thanks to the original team of HTC Touch Android Devs
You guys know who you are..
Additional Notes
- in the Launcher settings set high res icons on, it looks way better
- you're going to want to be careful with some of the lockscreens you pick, some of the ones that slide to the sides don't work properly.. If it won't unlock adb in and delete that lockscreen from /data/system/theme
- If you have to wipe, make sure to install the zip again, it needs to place a file on the data partition to work properly.
- You'll probably want a better keyboard, use thumb keyboard, perfect key board or something more tab suited.
1.9.2 Build notes
When you first boot the build, either from an update or fresh install, the google partner setup will appear. Please skip the wifi connection setup and google account setup as they are not working properly in this build (will be fixed next build). Then when back into the system simply re-open gmail and add your account again.
Call for themers!
Want to make MIUI on the tab better? Edit or make new themes that match our screen size, that way lockscreens will work properly all the time, the dialer can look better etc.
Ivanoe has already posted a great port of a lockscreen here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16984789#post16984789 Thanks!
xavierjohn22 has also created a thread for some of the themes/lockscreens that he has ported to this screen size as well http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1249352

You must clear your launcher data BEFORE applying this update.zip
To install and boot
Ensure you are already on an ext4 system, (overcome/cm7/previous version) Install the zip. Wipe if you're on anything but a previous miui build

While I check xda frequently the place I check the most regarding this particular build is the miui.us forums so if I don't seem to reply here post there.
Updates
09/09/2011 12:49pm PSt: Updated to MIUI 1.9.9 Please see the general MIUI changelog here: http://miui.us/forums/content.php?115-MIUI-1.9.9-Full-Changelog . Tab specifically this update adds Landscape support to the launcher which no other MIUI build has!!! It also changes the grid to 7x7. Everything looks pretty good, the delete bar had to be shrunk up but it's still there. Some of the widgets may overlap a bit when rotating.. I'll keep working on these small things, but let's focus on how exciting it is that we got miui landscape launcher support before anyone!!
02/09/2011 8:59am PSt: Updated to MIUI base 1.9.20 Please see the general changelog here: http://miui.us/forums/content.php?110-MIUI-1.9.2-Preview-Changelog .Tab specifically LPM mode is now fixed.

25/08/2011 1:44pm pst: As the galnet team will be removing their work from XDA I'm going to be moving to a new source. In respect for Galnets work I've temporarily pulled the build and will have a new build, from a new base, up this afternoon.
