I love you constructive post
I would also like MIUI, I heard so much hype for it. Hopefully someone can port over a MDPI version of MIUI (I heard Galaxy 3 has MIUI and I think that phone is MDPI)
The problem isn't the resolution. The images could be resized fairly easy. The problem is that the frameworks are compiled for ARMv7 and will not work on older ARMv6 processors such as the one in your alls device. Sorry, the closest you all could get without purchasing a newer device is using some CM7/Launcher themes to try to mimic the look.

This.
Here's a CM7 MIUI theme by the same guy that did the Meizu theme.
Have to do the transparency patch for the status bar if you want it to look like that. (Which I would do regardless because it looks awesome.)

The Samsung Galaxy 3 has a MIUI port and it only has an ARM v6 processor. Sure, it's LDPI, but doesn't the fact that it's possible in the first place mean that it's also possible for the Espresso? Wouldn't it just take a dedicated porter who had the phone? I can understand that most people wouldn't be satisfied with just Launcher Pro or ADW with a MIUI theme.

Not to question you, but do you actually have the skills to do this? Something like this is not an easy task for people that know what they are doing so when you say you will help, does than mean you will test or can you actually contribute?
While some do not like TW, I do not understand why people would complain if there are more options for you phone. If you do not like it, move on to something else but don't tell people not to do it.
If the new TW was ported with all the new features in the SGS3 I am sure people would jump on it. Even the TW haters.

As I say that, it's better than sense 4.0. Nothing is better than stock ICS imo.

U can install it as a normal apk, or if u're rooted u can also push it to /system/app to enable delete apps directly from app drawer. In that same section u'll find another thread with tw launcher. This is of course TW4. Anyways, i've lived the tw experience and my final thought was "i'm never going back" , it was for sure my worst android experience.
And finally, as a response to the guy that claims that tw is a God in comparison to sense, i would propose to go jump off a cliff. They both suck and are no way close to vanilla feel, but if i had to choose between those 2 , i would go with sense, i've tried all sense versions up to sense 3.5 and neither tw3 nor tw4 are not even close.

A bit much there. Some people like like touchwiz because of some of the features it brings to the table that, quite frankly, should be in the Galaxy Nexus. The one that is bothering the HELL out of me right now is Wifi-Direct.
The S2, running Gingerbread, has a fully functioning, built-in Wifi-Direct Application. The Nexus? Does not. (Also every single video codec native to it without needing an app)
The S3, will have a better camera app, S-Beam, and a whole host of other features, that are only included with TouchWiz.
The features I've mentioned are not limited by the hardware differences between the S2 or even the S3 in comparison to the Nexus.
It's not always about looks, it's about features as well. I doubt telling someone to go jump off a cliff if they don't agree with your opinion on design is warranted.
Not a fan of touchwiz or sense
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Jump off a cliff was metaphoric of course (didn't expect i would need to explain that). Anyways, all this stuff is a matter of taste, and yes there are people who like tw, for whatever reasons. As i mentioned i spent time in both worlds, the only feature I liked in tw was the memo app. The features in sense such as widgets (weather, stocks, htc email, news feed and so on), more practical and nicer lockscreen, better transition and scrolling animations, recent apps and settings shortcuts in starus bar, and visually nicer and more colorful UI etc... plus, the whole general feel and smoothness of sense, i'm not talking about sense 4, although htc will polish the software on one x in future updates. Unless someone hadn't lived with both UI's his/her arguements are not valid.
Anyways back on topic, the "features" u mentioned in ur post above are directly integrated into the samsung framework and other system files, and u can see the progress of such ports in the gnex dev section. But that's not the point, people who NEED TW features should go and buy samsung phones with tw, gnex is clearly not the best choice for them.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
OK some of you guys need to understand that if wants to bring TW to the galaxy nexus so be it. I'm tired of reading crap about how "why would you want it" if you don't want it don't flash it when there's a touchwiz rom simple as that. Don't sit here and tell him you hate TW for what ever reason. He is asking for help to port it. If u are not going to contribute then don't say anything at all.

Why buy a gnex if you want a manufacturer overlay?
Seems kind of strange to me. I got a gnex because I wanted pure google.
The Sensation forum is also full of people complaining they don't want sense.
It's all very strange, like buying a vw golf and being disappointed that you can't put a 7 litre v10 in it.

So you're last sentence is inferring the Galaxy Nexus is a mid range Android "vehicle" and Sense is a more advanced custom engine that it can't handle?

I'm wondering if there were any plans for an official release (or port) of MIUI V4 to our devices. MIUI is by far my favorite ROM and I would love to have it running on my S III.

Any update on this? I'm actually considering going back to my HD2 just because I miss miui so much. haha.
Was wondering any update on this? I saw miui has New MiHome Free (Launcher) for this week version. Thanks to devs who are working on this.
Difference?
I am faced with a dilemma.... there are two different versions to download of MIUI Rom....
Samsung Galaxy S3 (AOSP Based) and Samsung Galaxy S3 ....
May I sound like a noob idc but what in the hell is the difference?
In my opinion MIUI always has battery/stabilty issues, i've used miui many times before on my devices including GS3 and it just plain sucks battery and sucks in general stability but everything and theme look good.

hi all i've been lurking in nexus forums lately and i found miui ( 4.1 is released ) to be totally beautiful and gorgeous it has a really nice theme to it , + it have a ton of customizables ...but there's only about 50 k views ,,why is that so ? it seems to be a well made rom ...so is it so unpopular? i don't have a nexus yet though
because it looks like an iphone. alot of people dont like that look.

Some people like the aosp versions. Generally people have different preferences. I used to love MIUI and use it frequently until I came to the gnexus where the whites were not up to my expectations. However today jb version of MIUI is out and I'll be giving that a go. Hopefully will stick with it.

I'm not sure about the others, but i've been in the android sphere for over 2 yrs and i never flashed a miui rom. iOS like UI's just don't interest me.

This for me also.
Saying it looks like an iPhone isn't the real reason because you can customize MIUI much easier with it's built-in theme engine - there's hundreds of themes available for it that looking NOTHING like an iPhone and NOTHING like aosp as well.
The reason it isn't popular here is because it runs like crap on the galaxy nexus. If you popped in over at the Desire HD or SGSII forums you'll see it's one of the top ROMs used there because it runs beautifully on those devices.
oh so miui isn't optimized for nexus ? one more thing is there a difference between aokp , aosp , cm10 ?
I don't like closed source ROMs plain and simple. Release your source so others can build on your success.

It doesn't have to look like iOS at all. I have run Miui with Apex Launcher and it looks nothing like an iPhone.

I just tried it out and it can't currently hold a candle to Jelly Bean in terms of UI smoothness. Deal breaker for me. Also doesn't seem as stable, and chews through battery.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
It is not as smooth as other roms. I like miui a lot, just not on nexus yet. Hope the smoothness comes back.
you guys that have never tried and think its too much like the iphone check this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hICCWO8vaXU
It doesn't take advantage of GPU rendering and therefore is God awful slow and painful to view. Basically its not at all optimized for the nexus. You can change the scrolling style on the launcher, or use apex/nova, but as a workaround its a poor trade-off.

Why you ask? Because they refuse to release source.

1. i'm not particularly fond of its smoothness or appearance. i ran it on my evo for about a day, just to see what all the fuss was about, but was not terribly impressed.
2. closed source. not because i really care either way about re-contributing to the community (sorry guys), but because i've spent enough time working with slightly-less-than-reputable foreign programmers to be cautious of it. before you start ranting about how i'm some kind of racist/anti-chinese douchebag, just stop. i'm not even suggesting that there are sneaky things going on, because it's awfully hard to hide those kinds of things from the rest of the community. their fierce determination to keep all their code/modifications to themselves, for some reason, just makes my spidey sense tingle.
guys today they just updated it to jellbean making it smoother
It's just not butter!!
