Have you ever seen a cm9 to miui v4 guide? I thought I saw something and it look fairly easy.

Yes. I've ported ROMs before. I'm about to do it now. First build kept bootlooping, I need a pro to diagnose my logcat. But, for the moment i'm trying another method.

I never really understood the point of miui. Its UI is too iphonish. If u like that UI then why not just get an iPhone?

Because like the rest of Android, it is still very customizable. Before. AOKP, MIUI was the go to ROM for awesome customization and many options. The only thing iOS like is the default launcher which can still be changed. It looks a little prettier but is still very clearly Android.

If you give it a try instead of just watching videos, you might see the advantages and understand. I do dislike the default launcher though.

Miui = iPhone is one of the dumbest things I see on xda. Besides similar looking base icons and the lack of a app drawer that is the only similar items.

The themes for MiUi are awesome and I.hate app drawers so I think it's awesome.

I did not say MIUI = iPhone. I said MIUI is iphonish. Its even in your quote of my quote. So do not twist my words around dude. I tried MIUI on both the samsung captivate and the inspire 4G and it is too IPHONE-ISH for me. Different strokes for different folks.

I'm not a fan of miui. Tried it for a week on my captivate. The customization is good, but its not what I was looking for. AOKP is my all time fav. Simplistic and elegant with functional features.

all you do is use another launcher like Apex or Go Launcher and all that iphoneish feel is GONE... But like you said different strokes.. my 2cents cheers!!
