[PORT][ROOT-NO ROOT] MIUI Home Launcher with grid size options [13.01.2018]

Search This thread
THIS WILL WORK ONLY ON MIUI

After 2 hours downloading, extracting deodexing.. bla bla.. i finally take MiHome launcher from mi max with options for grid size.. it will work only on MIUI rom with android 7.0 ( since app has API 24). i personally tested on MIUI global stable 8.5.4.0.

Also to enable options for grid size, phone must be set to max 440dpi.
INSTALL;
Manually replace MiuiHome app to system/priv-app/MiuiHome/ (delete oat folder if u have)
Set permission to 644 ( -rw-r--r-- )
Reboot

Easy method to apply grid size options like mi max have in launcher but this time no root or unlocked bootloader needs...how??? Simply download my modded limitless theme, apply theme and done. U will now have a visible options in launcher for 4x5, 4x6, 4x7, 5x5, 5x6, 5x7 grid size

I personally tested on MIUI 9 developer beta, but should work on stable MIUI9.. Test and report please.
For those who getting third party theme error use this app to apply theme https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mixapplications.miuithemeeditor
Unfortunately this grid size method will works only if u use this limitless moded theme...( i will write a quick tutorial soon how u can apply this to your favorite theme on the fly )
For those who want to include this methot in own theme add lines to yourtheme.mtz/com.miui.home/theme_values.xml
Code:
<integer name="config_cell_count_x">4</integer>
<integer name="config_cell_count_y">5</integer>
<integer name="config_cell_count_x_min">4</integer>
<integer name="config_cell_count_y_min">5</integer>
<integer name="config_cell_count_x_max">5</integer>
<integer name="config_cell_count_y_max">7</integer>

Thanks to Xiaomi, Miui forum,Miui Device team and me

It's easily doable with a custom theme but Global rom might not have custom theme support

Can u give some more details, what exactly not working? is launcher crashing or grid size not working?

Grid size can be changed ..and MiuiHome.apk is replaced..on reboot by default Nova launcher is running..while trying to change launcher from Home screen and recent option from settings..the MiuiHome /Mi launcher option not there..when manually I click the MiuiHome.apk it says file is corrupt

    Support for miui 10 no root, no unlocked bootloader pls! My 720 hours of waiting to unlock pass on the 24th of October and the ui is just ugly with 4 columns....

    Theme method still works for grid size in MIUI 10 without root,
    download theme from OP and just google "how to apply 3rd party theme on MIUI 10 without root"
