MIUI 1.6.17 Introduces New Lock Screen Mods

MIUI is an undisputed king in the world of custom Android ROMs, and you would be hard-pressed to find too many Android fanboys who'll deny this particular fact. The Chinese-based custom ROM not only offers you an iOS-esque home screen experience, but also sports plenty of flavors of custom lock screens, each supplemented with a multitude of visual and functional facets. Adding to its feature richness and already-quite-extensive customizability, the iOS-inspired MIUI custom ROM for Android has, in its latest version (1.6.17), included support for lock screen mods. That is, in addition to the lock screen skin and background customization that previous versions allowed, you can now apply lock screen styles with custom UI and unlock options. The six lock screen mods currently available look absolutely peachy (screenshots and download link after the break). Let’s hope theme devs keep rolling out more. Read More

How To Generate License For Swype 3.0 Beta On MIUI [Android]

The beta version of the new and improved Swype keyboard replacement for Android was released to the Android Market this past Sunday. But as users scurried in to download the IME to their devices, those using the MIUI custom ROM found themselves in a fix once again. As with the previous versions of the keyboard replacement app, the keyboard’s installation on MIUI requires a workaround. The second step in the installation process (right before the licensing step) requires you disable Swype by unchecking a check box that does not exist in the Language & Input Settings page of MIUI’s Settings application. MIUI’s device settings differ in arrangement from the minimalistic settings menu of the stock OS and other major custom ROMs (most of which feature stock settings). This prohibits users from licensing the app and accessing all its features. Join us after the break for a step-by-step solution. Read More
