WELCOME TO MIUI
MIUI is a new user interface for your mobile platform. It is designed to replace your current mobile phones user interface with a cleaner freasher, iPhone like style. MIUI also comes with over 100 plus added features, including the ability to download, edit and manage your phones theme / style. It is designed by chinese developers under a closed source basis and is modified around the world by leading develoeprs such as Galnet, Mambo04, Currydude, Kenia1234 and many others.
This manual is designed for usage with SAMSUNG GALAXY S i9000 mobiles only, but can easily be edited for usage with other makes and models.
In the PDA Section of Odin, load in the file GT-I9000_FROYO_FULL_PDA.tar. Select 512pit as the PIT and check the re-partition tab is ticked. Now on your mobile phone turn it off and hold down the Volume Down + Home Key + Power Button. This will enter download mode. Now connect your mobile to your PC via USB and wait for the READY status on Odin. Now click on the START BUTTON and wait for the flash process to complete before continuing. Once completed you will have the correct setup to continue to the next stage.
Now navigate using your Volume Key (Up and Down) and Power Button (Enter) to install MIUI on your mobile phone. Firstly Navigate to Mounts and Storage and Wipe the System, Cache, Data and DataData. Once done, return to the first screen by going Back. Now we are going to go to Install Zip From SD Card, and Select the MIUI file you have download, etc.. Galnet-MIUI.zip Now press the Power Button (Enter) and the rom installation will start. You may experience a couple of reboots whilst this occurs.
Once completed the phone will either restart automatically and load (Please give up to 10 minutes) and enter MIUI without any issues. If something should go wrong, simply enter Recover (Now Orange) and Simply Wipe Cache, System, Data, and Datadata and then Install the MIUI file again.
It is always recommended that once you get to the Desktop, you reboot your phone in order for installation to complete successfully. You do this by holding down the power button and choosing the Reboot Option from the menu. Once completed your are free to use the rom as you please.
USING MIUI
As you have an Android phone, going over how to make calls etc isnt worth doing, so instead we are going to highlight the changes MIUI has done to the way you do things. Firstly there is no application drawer, everything installed on your phone is displayed on Screens like the iPhone.
WIDGETS
On holding down to add a widget on your Screen your notice you have options at the top. The one on the Left is to change your wallpapers, then middle is the Recycle Bin and the Right one which is your widget drawer. Click on this and your see your widgets are no longer in a list format but in a nice menu style which you can scroll through, simply find the widget required and drag in to the screen required.
FOLDERS
It is the same process to add a folder as it is to add a Widget. Simply hold down the screen, wait on the icons to appear, and then drag the Folder Widget to the required screen.
THEMES
One of the best features about MIUI is the ability to change your Theme / Style at anytime. All you have to do is visit the Theme Application and Visit the online section for 100+ Themes.
