MIUIHO - Inferior Human Organs Gingerbread with a taste of MIUI
So after a while of looking for a way to port MIUI to the Optimus V, and failing miserably, I decided to create my own MIUI port-ish ROM.
The concept of this ROM is combining the stability and features of IHO mixed with the stylish look of MIUI.
This is just a little taste of what it will look like:
=================================================
Included:
MIUI Gallery
MIUI Music
Custom Bootanimation.zip
MIUI Compass
MIUI Launcher (based on qqlauncher)
QQlauncher
Touchwiz3.0 Launcher
Transparent StatusBar
File Expert (File Manager)
CMWallpapers
mClock
MIUI Widgets
Miren Browser
HTC_IME (MIUI Themed)
Transparency Patch
WidgetLocker Themes
Custom MIUI Wallpapers
Custom MIUI lockscreen backgrounds
GOSMS and Go Contacts
MIUI Ringtones and Alarms
Things I still need to work on:
DONE WITH EVERYTHING!
Adding more MIUI apps ported to MDPI as I find them.
==================================================

16. If you have WidgetLocker, you can install a custom MIUI slider like the one in the screenshots. These sliders are found in the folder "WidgetLocker Themes" in your SDcard. There are different colors for more customization
QQLauncher Transparency & Themes (Thanks dr.notor)
"Hold your finger on the home screen for a while. Select Wallpapers from menu. From the next menu, select Live wallpapers. From the next menu, select MultiPicture Live Wallpaper. On next screen, tap on Settings, go to Common Settings - Picture Source. From the popup menu, choose either Single Picture or Picture Folder. On the prompt, do not forget to check "Use by default for this actions" and tap on MIUI Gallery. Go to wallpapers folder, choose a wallpaper, duh! Press back several times until you get back to the Set wallpaper screen. Tap on Set wallpaper. You are back to your homescreen."
Themes for QQ Launcher can be found here=> THEMES!
Extra*
As you can see, I've added 3 different launchers, this is due to the fact that some people may prefer the MIUI Launcher(qqlauncher) look instead of the Touchwiz Launcher, or vice-versa.I decided to include the 3 for more customization. When you first install the ROM, you will have the option to choose which one you want after you setup your Google account.
Also, if you want to restore the stock apps, just download the Stock_Apps.zip and restore them using File Expert. If you need more info on how to do this, just post a comment and I'll write detailed instructions!
Credits!
This ROM is based on Jerryscript's 8/25/11 build of IHO
Thanks to blarfiejandro for IHO ROM, SWEATAIMI for his guide on creating Custom ROMS, dax4182 for the TOUCHWIZ launcher and the people at the MIUI Forums
