Miui One Stop Shop (Q&A, Mods, Tweaks, Links, etc)

[jdeloach]

**Huge thanks to JayHarper for creating this great thread over at XDA and allowing me to bring it over here. We are trying to get more people here, and this hopefully will help. This thread will be updated soon and will include many more goodies....so keep an eye out!


You can find what other users are currently using and get a lot of ideas from this thread in the Android themes section at XDA:

What does your MIUI look like?

Quick Tips:

If you download a lock screen theme that is not the right display size and you can not get it unlocked, hold down the back button + volume up and voila! you're in.

You can customize your theme any way you like by menu>settings>themes>customize. You will be able to mix and match however you like!

Screenshots can be taken by using the menu + Volume down button.

If you want the center clock, carrier options displays, etc., that is what the extended settings are for. Which can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=752

If you're like me and can't stand not having an app drawer, there is a perfect alternative by xuso, called AltDrawer that works great. It can be located here:AltDrawer Thread (Thank you to Vanessaem for pointing that out.
)

If you are having trouble uploading a screenshot from the XDA app, try using a different gallery to upload. I suggested an app down below in the "recommended apps" section.

Mods, Tweaks, Etc:

Sweet! Just deleted a few bookmarks by subscribing to this thread. Thanks!

Is "the mms.apk for messaging that you will need for right now to split the messages over 160 char" strictly for the Evo3D?

[xajhbbs]

So this is all for evo 3D?

Correct. Some of the stuff will work for Sensation, but just have to test. I am going to completely update everything and add some stuff once this weeks update is released.
