Windows 7 Themed Rom - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General

Hi Everyone,
I would like to ask if there is an existing Windows 7 themed rom for s5360?
I can't find any through Google or the forum.
If there is, I would gladly test that Rom.
Thanks a bunch!
=D

Try to search launcher7

Nope, there isnt. Try Launcher7, A.I. Type Keyboard, ZPlayer, Messaging Metro Beta and WP7 Notifications. Will give you a Windows Phone 7 in itself.

Thanks for the fast reply.
Yep, installed all of those apps already. I just haven't found any Rom with that WP7 theme for s5360.
Then I guess I need to read on how to create a custom rom.

well...you can integrate those app into system if you want to make one.

in future we will have that first we have cm 7 waiting for cm 9 and then we will the wp7 themed rom

custom ROM do not use paid apps

cook your own rom, modify stuff to make them look minimal. or try to quit mimicking windows 7 interface, android is unique. trying to make android look like windows 7 is like trying to look like a girl/boy if you are a boy/girl.

Yeah I know right.
I just want to make the UI more minimalist as what you have said.
I think I'll just buy a new Windows 7 Phone.

[Q] Miui Apps

I've been playing around the Miui rom and there are some really neat apps that I would love to have on CM's rom. File explorer with the way it organizes apks, music files, and etc and the traffic monitor app that tells you everything bandwidth you used and whatever.
Is there anyway we can port them over?
Im trying to find out the same thing. The framework is different so it may be hard but if someone could it would be awesome.
the miui music app rocks! Been using it on my Galaxy s, trying tonight on Desire Z aswell.
well, MIUI Framework is different and it wont work at all in other roms. But why do you want to use its app for another rom? is there something wrong with MIUI that you dont like ?
I don't like how miui looks more like the iphone os, I like the way the stock Android looks, hence why I'm using cyanogen mod.

So do what I do and use an alternative launcher like launcherpro or adw. Works flawlessly.

I'm trying miui now with Go Launcher. If I could get the notifications in black I wouldn't see the difference from CM7

Ah... I love MIUI and every part of it. Of course. The normal stock android feel is also my fav.

Miui has really improved since the last comment has been posted. Its super rootytooty now, in case anyone wants to try it, and it can be themed outrageously to make it look like android os, if you don't like the iphone-ish theme.
Anyway, I kind of like the op's thoughts. I wouldn't mind a few miui apps on mexdroid, for example. Flashing and restoring between roms for a few nice features is troublesome ._.

You can install some of MIUI application on other roms, for example file explorer. I copied that from miui rom zip and it worked well for me on my ICS (no MIUI) rom.

MIUI default theme really looks like iOS yeah but you can change it very easily.
I'm using ADW Ex so i can customize my homescreen and use an appdrawer.
The lack of appdrawer seems to me like the main reason why MIUI looks like iOS. So you just need to install the launcher you want (or enable the MIUI app drawer with the MIUI Extended settings mod) and delete all icons on your homescreens to make your MIUI rom more like the stock one.
MIUI Theming engine is the best and that's what i would like to be ported on other Roms.

Best MIUI ROM?

I would like to know everyone's opinion of the best MIUI ROM and why. I want to try one out but there are so many different kinds.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I've been happily using the MIUI.us release for a while.
MIUI is a Chinese ROM, the other ones are just translated versions of the same ROM with some minor changes. In ROM Manager, there's the original Chinese MIUI, MIUI.us, MIUI Android, and MIUI-PT.
MIUI.us is the most popular of the 3, haven't used MIUI-PT, but I'd assume it's not much different.
Not really much of a difference. There are a few that remove a few apps and such, but as far as settings and such I don't see much of a difference
Sent from my HTC Desire Z using XDA Premium App
Seriously that whole miui debacle is a mess. I don't even THINK of trying it because there are 13425 of them to pick from and barely any documentation on what makes them different! But honestly if i was gonna try it, it would be the official miui usa release. Or better yet i might just go buy an iphone
Meh.
I'd go with the MIUI.us version off of their site. Most frequently updated, less buggy, smooth, negligible speed difference between it and the other "optimized" versions of ROM Manager. Like mentioned above, some just add or remove some apps and other minor stuff. MIUI.us is the official "unofficial" MIUI translation, as mentioned on the chinese MIUI site.
It really doesn't matter which one you flash. Once you've installed the Simpson's theme, it's all money
Yeah just install MIUI.us through ROM Manager (The version on ROM Manager is up to date). It has the best english translation, and its the most used by far.
And I must say, MIUI is a very nice ROM, by far the most user-friendly. It has a somewhat iPhone-like UI, but much nicer looking. It's heavily customizable, but I'm quite fond of the defautl theme that's pre-installed with the latest MIUI.us
I personally prefer Cyanogenmod myself, but if I was going to choose a phone for a non-power user, it would be an Android phone, and I would install MIUI on it.
Thanks for all your replies. I understand there is no app drawer in MIUI if I'm not mistaken. I would like to know if there is a way to put this in the rom. Or an app that can do this or something similar because for me I need it to be organized. Thanks for your help in advance.

You can use any of the many different launchers that are available. My favourite is launcher pro. Or you could use adw, go launcher, stock gingerbread. Take you pick

This. If you want Tmo app drawerish and launcher, you could push Launcher2. I did that for awhile (break from cyanawesome)

MIUI.us Official with LauncherPRO will give you the best experience. I personally like the UI of MIUI and I don't miss the app drawer too much. It just takes a little getting used to. Plus, having 9 homescreens is pretty cool =p
Yeah, the default launcher with MIUI is more like the iphone launcher. All your app icons are on the many home screens. However you can easily install any other launcher, my favorite is Go Launcher.

I was wondering the whole 4 different versions of MIUI from Rom manager myself. I NEVER flash roms from Rom manager, only from recovery but I do download from Rom manager occasionally. I have been using MIUI.us WITH launcher pro. I LOVE the rom, but do not like the iphone launcher. An app drawer is a must for me, and I use too many widgets to use the default iphone launcher. I know you can use widgets on the default launcher but it's a lot easier with launcher pro to just long press and add them. I'm a big fan of Sense, have always stuck with it over CM7 (except on my Nook of course) but I figured I needed a change. So far MIUI is the most stable ROM I've EVER used outside of the stock rom (which isn't always stable......ask any VZW BB Tour owner when OS 5 was "officially" released).
Point is MIUI is a really great ROM. Many criticize it because it looks like an iphone at first, but with a new launcher, it's surely pure android. Enjoy.
you should just try one and see for urself... one thing i love about MIUI is how easy it is to customize the themes and the variety of themes available directly on the phone... not like CM where u have to find the theme in the forum or market... definatly give it a try

CyanogenMod 7 Self-Kang #1 Alphafied 2.3.7

I just flashed this ROM today... and I'm still playing around with it... but is it missing the Voice software that my stock came with? (Voice instructions... Driving mode... Ect)... I installed the Google files suggested...
Also, I'm not seeing Swipe at all...
Swype isn't there, I just signed up for the Swype Beta and got it back...the keyboard on this version of Swype is actually preferable to stock imo
Awesome!! Thanx so much for the quick reply...
Cm will be missing alot of extras that came with our phone... but extra customization features that didn't..
Personally I like touchwiz and tw framework apps like the camera and mms app so I stick with roms based of stock.. still fast and look great..
That is till miui drops

Is this your first time using CM? It's the most barebones rom you can get, there won't be any extra software installed like on other roms. It's basically just the core files needed for the phone to operate plus some tweaks & customization options, so you'll have to manually add things like Swype and Driving mode. This is what *I* love about CM though, it's almost like a 'build your own rom' deal.
I'll stick with TW based roms, might try out MIUI. Using the stock android camera, calendar...no thanks. The TW roms are just as fast. I noticed nothing working faster running the CM7 build which is the usual want from everyone at the expense of good looking and more features(not tweaks).
I just flashed CM9 on my Nexus S, it's meh.

Well then welcome to the wonderful, addictive world of Android If you like to customize then stick with CM7. It's pretty safe to assume that development for this phone is gonna be very good. There are a lot of themes on the market, just search "CM7 theme".

If you don't want tw, wait for miui. Theme chooser sucks. Miui destroys everything as far as theme customization goes. You can mix and match parts of different themes.

Rom's/Themes and Icons

I recently just started doing a bit with my GN. I currently have rooted and installed Revolutions HD 2.1.2 and messed around with some soft key/notification bar mods, but my main goal is to make my phone look far from stock ICS.
-What can I do to gain larger icons, similar to that of the iPhone =/. I like many of the icon packs, but I would just like to be able to re-size them. Does this have to do specifically with the ROM, or with themes?
- Some examples I have seen have been on the Android Themes forums, and MIUI.
- Any help would be appreciated, I've been poking around searching google and the forum for a bit but I haven't seen questions like these answered clearly.
Buy a Galaxy S II
Right. Any other ideas? or is it just something that the phone needs more time?

More times I think. Themes will pop up soon.
Once Cyanogenmod 9 comes out there are hundreds of CM themes that will make it look FAR from stock ICS.
Also you can try using an alternate launcher, like GoLauncher EX, ad using a theme for GoLauncher, like a HTC Sense theme
Check out all the GO Launcher Themes HERE for a bunch of ways to make it look not like stock ICS

[Q] Samsung apps and CM 10

Hi men,
Just a question. I wonder why the Samsung Apps (like Snotes, etc....) dosen't work in CM 10s rom.
Defintily i realy love CM 10 but the plus of our GN7100 is the Spen. So i tested all the 3rd party apps like GNote, Google agenda etc...but the Spen is not so integrated than with The others ROM
Is there any possibility to see in the future the Sapps on a CM Rom ?
Thanks by advance for your answer
I also want the apps to be in cm 10

Every cool feature you see on touchwiz are tied to touchwiz framework... Best you can do its to get a bloat free minimal custom touchwiz rom, put some launcher nova like on it.. Use the AOSP icons, and that's the closest you will be to have sort of AOSP sized and themed rom with touchwiz features
