If you go to that link. Download the deodexed chinese MIUI rom. flash that and then flash the english pack. You essentially get stock MIUI everytime it's released from there.
I am really not sure what the ROM dev's add adn I just started using MIUI today but decided I wanted vanilla MIUI.
The 'vanilla' MIUI ROM can be downloaded from miui.com, but it's odexed ROM(like 'stock' Android firmware). Most of language packs are made from deodexed ROM.
**The deodexed ROM does not have anything added from odexed ROM; no tweaks. However, language pack or translated ROMs can add some tweaks, delete unnecessary applications(like TelocationProvider.apk, which is not needed outside of China).
The answer lies within you. Try them all and find which one YOU like best.
MIUI is really attractive for its deeper-customized UI. But in China, a lot of people still choose the original rom from XDA like CM or AOSP. I think they just not need the original style of Android but not the IPhone style's UI. I think it depends on the hobby of every buddy. just see want to you want.
So far I'm running the vanilla MIUI ROM and I ended up loading adw launcher ex because I didn't like not having an app drawer. It runs hella smooth and I like the MIUI contacts/phone apps, the built-in back-up functionality, and the power-widgets in notification bars (without a 6-item limit).
There's also a vanilla AOSP theme theme for adw so you don't have those iOS-esque icons if you don't like them.

I have a rooted Nexus One 2.2 and I really wanted to keep my stock ROM (there are always issues with cooked ROMs regardless of how well they are prepared) but I also want to be able to morph/mod my device a bit.
As you may tell I'm a bit of a noob so I'm just wondering if this is possible without flashing a custom ROM?
What would you like to change?

You say that regarding cooked roms, but the same can be said with any of the "mods" you want to use. Everyone is different, even you stock rom may not be immune to "stock" or the most basic mods. But I get what you are talking about.
You can use setcpu to oc your processor. There are a bunch of metamorphs you can use to customize your phone as well. They even have a circle battery mod that you can use WITHOUT being rooted. Only thing is, that mod does not overwrite or replace anything. It's an addition to he existing features.
Not to say all mods are worthless, being a CM6 user for a while and then going through eVil D's sense files and now Rod's MIUI files are welcome additions to people like me who like a lil spice in their daily flashes lol.

I'm just looking for some bits and pieces.
Circle Battery in Notification Bar
Notification bar colour change
etc
If your looking for aesthetics then I'd suggest using a launcher like adw or launcher pro... And you can only underclock without a different kernel.

Simple to do. I use the stock FRG83 ROM myself with these exact changes. First thing you need to do is get a deodexed version of the ROM. I use the one found here by Geo411m: Completely Stock Deodexed with busybox
I then went out and found all the images that I liked from various other ROMs and themes and made my own update zip file using Geo411m's FRG83 Blackbar Add-on v1.2 addon as the base.
Just take a day or so and learn how the themes work and that the framework-res.apk file can be modified using winrar or winzip and then you should be on your way.
Hi all,
As abovementioned, is there a way to have themechooser in our phone? it would be great if we could have it since theres quite alot of tmobile theme chooser themes...
thanks

Wait for a stable CM 7 port with the required framework.
Else you can switch to the early MIUI rom like me.
Except for a glitchy camera and non working GPS and FM radio, its pretty stable for daily use and CM7 has got nothing on MIUI theming imo.

ok thanks... i will try the MIUI rom... and i really hope that the DEVS can make this MIUI rom with fully functional features on it. the GUI kinda nice.
You can install different launcher instead. But yeah, I'm also w8ing for MIUI. It's preety good, but some funktions still unstable.
Install a different launcher and you can choose the themes that come along with it.
I am currently using GO Launcher EX. There are quite a few themes to choose from there..

bt porting themes directly for stock launcher is more cool
Have yet to find a gingerbread rom worth permanent daily use the closest in my opinion was firerats magpie but for some odd reason i cant get Gapps working right for it when flashed(terminal emulator is always missing)
which GingerBread Or Froyo Rom do yall think is the most customizable and stable?
TBH, I think all ROMs are about the same as far as customization and stability. (this is just my own opinion)
Now it come down to what you would like best between GB, Froyo, etc... That is different. Currently I like the Froyo build ROM. It seem to be running fast (for me). I didn't even bother with flashing the GAPPS, after I flashed the ROM I just went into the market and download the google apps that I neeeded (IE: GMail, Google+). Since I don't use all the google apps.
Don't know what you meant on the Terminal Emmulator. I always have it in all the ROM I flashed.
Currently I am using NameLessFroyo ROM (see my sig for ROM link) as of yesterday for my daily use.
Personally FBL is the best to me. I have it Metamorphed to look like Gingerbread, Sense3.0 Font, apps to EXT,I use Zeam launcher *Can't install my LP Plus since LP is the system launcher*.
A good GB rom is dw9009 *or somthing like that* His ROM is 100% pure CM7 Just like you'd get on a offical ROM. Then Sisterchick made a Barebones version of it called DietCm7. It just saves a lot of space, and runs on the phone it's self and not the Swap.

I created a transparent Gingerbread launcher2 for my own use on Pete's GPA Rom and thought others might like it as well. I was inspired by the CM7DarkLauncher by MyPaT and while it worked on Pete's Rom, it lacked the tweaks and quickness of the modified app drawer by Pete. Make a backup before flashing in case a problem arises and let me know if anyone has any problems as this has only been tested with the latest nightly of Pete's Rom 9/29 so it may or may not work with other roms, just flash through recovery and enjoy. I've also included a file which reverts the launcher to the one included in the nightly 9/29 (which I haven't tested but should work).
Again, I want to thank MyPaT for the idea as well as for the update script which I stole (I believe the script removes ADW if you have it so just a heads up, I didn't know how to make my own), and of course Pete for the amazing rom.
Flashing now bbl
Edit thanks
Edit2 worked on rooted stock 237

I come from a distant world known as the HTC Vision/Desire Z threads, I've been looking for a stock launcher that is modded exactly like this, my question is, will it work on another device?
I'm looking stock ics ROM 4.0.4 which not customize in everything including systemUI, framework modified build.prop (change build version our name or dpi), no extra custom such toggles and everything
And work every thing including data limit, camera face effect, and using bright galaxy nexus boot leader.
Any one and advise me which ROM is that?
this is not the place to ask that. read the rules
Anyways. you can try eliterom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1621976
I think ICS333 is perfect for you.
But next time don't ask that here.
no stock ics for this phone. all along ics is consider a custom. you can pick any rom you like. no need to create a new thread
This is what you need: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398223
Good luck :-bd
