Nice work. What version of MIUI is this based on? I've tried almost every single center clock mod, but still can't change the position of the clock/ install extended settings.

Ok, I want some people to try this out for me.
This works for me with ~80% success on sending and ~50% receiving mms while connected to wifi both on this rom and cm7
Flash this right after the rom (before first boot)
http://db.tt/c2CkxpG3
It will install handcent and its libs.
Set handcent to handle sms and Mms (default messaging app settings)
Now try to send/receive mms while connected to wifi. (Sry minor thread Jack, but this has worked with varied success on a few phones, and I am hoping will show you smart people some clue to make this work as intended)
-note- I removed the stock mms.apk. I don't know if this had an effect on my success, but it sure Borked the sms settings menu... lol

I believe I was told It was a port from a LG Optimus... Correct me if I am wrong.

Here's a heads up fellas. ADW Ex will disable the ability to apply MIUI themes. I had my phone themed out with the Transformer theme and then installed ADW Ex. Everything changed except the status bar.
EDIT: Just tried again and it only disabled the icons. The theme may need to be applied twice .

The first time I went and created a folder in data/system and put the dl'ed .mtz file in it, then applied the theme with the theme app. Since creating the folder, I tried to apply a new theme without moving it and it installed. Works for me.

All i did was make the theme folder in data/system. didn't put anything in it. I put the theme files on the sdcard folder Miui/theme and worked every time for me and i have tried quite a few. Just be careful with the lock screensThe first time I went and created a folder in data/system and put the dl'ed .mtz file in it, then applied the theme with the theme app. Since creating the folder, I tried to apply a new theme without moving it and it installed.

Well some lock screens work fine. But the ones that come from the miui theme site don't. But i think its because they are HDPI not MDPI. ill scale a few down that should work. If not I'll just have to do another restore lolYeah lockscreen just got me, so I havta reinstall, lol!
But you can install everything else on the theme except the lockscreen, I noticed in an earlier post that it said to uncheck everything but the icons, but it's been my experience that you can install everything but the lockscreen, and it does work...

EDIT: That Transformers theme is pretty bad ass...
A CWM backup will fix you right up. You're correct too about checking everything except the lockscreen stuff.
Man this ROM is SWEET!!

I do believe you would have to edit the xmls to re-size the working components of the lock.

Hell, if you guys are gonna try to fix a theme for the lockscreen please try it on the Transformers lockscreen, I'd really like to have it to fit the rest of the theme...
Milocker transformer works. Check olicious post in the thread with screens . I'm glad you guys are enjoying this. Remember to thank the devs for the base again. I just made it pretty. They did the hard stuff. Think I have a good solid version for you folk. A couple quirks but all in all I'm digging it. It's got kk baked and full gapps. Full flash recomended. Will start new thread tomorrow. Or do we just wanna roll on with this one? Kinda has built charm eh?

Cool thing is that MiLocker from the market will apply the lockscreen that comes with your theme. That way everything matches up an looks AWESOME!! I happier than a pig in mud right now! lol

I already had it saved to my file storage with MediaFire. It took quite some time to upload so I figured I'd save him the time and go ahead and get it out there for the fellas.

Have you seen DSP that he added? It helps out a lot with the extra bass and getting the volume adjusted.
