i've been working on this for a while now but i managed to patch a rom with MiCode so called sources  from github.. i still have few FC issues as everyone else does but  working on it, asked for help here and there and still waiting for  response.. i tried to patch few roms for zte blade since miui is HDPI  only (or it was at least) rom so it still needs alot of resizing.. not sure which rom managed to boot since i was making folders like test1 test2 etc but i tried few older nightlys and new ones, i had errors with holo crap that cm7 team integrated from honeycomb/ics in cm7 builds.. also since we dont have stock 2.3.x android i did use cm7 so there are still cm options but not all of them work because of micode patches..
i  started resizing launcher today but its not really going fast to i  decided to post image from stock miui launcher that i didnt mess with  much.. it works pretty well so far, i will be uploading a rom in a day  or two i guess, just wanted to make a thread so people would know that  there are still some new stuff that can and will be coming for racer

i might need some help resizing etc since its really annoying/boring/hard to do everything yourself.. i will also update first post with more info and will reserve second post for any changes i do even if i dont post them so you can keep track and know whats been fixed/removed/replaced etc etc..

you can download alpha1 rom from here
this rom has no gapps for now since they would only be a burden while doing debug process.. more info in second post
you can flash your own gapps pack if you want to use this rom daily

big thanks to the guys at xda guide thread and also people from micode issues board and github that helped

alpha1 release - based on cm-7.2.0-rc0-blade-kang rom / vamshi #68 kernel
whats done in this version:
cm7.2.0 full hdpi rom patched with MiCode PatchRom (you can see more here about PatchRom)
fixed all those FC's (thanks to delta for his time)
resized some png files in framework and systemui due to graphical errors/issues
removed some cm7 related apps
replaced some apps with miui ones
edited bootani desc to fit qvga screen

known issues (for now):
contacts fc when opening dialer (this still is on todo list) - can use other dialer apps like ex or dw
everything is huge due to HDPI framework (miui has no mdpi/ldpi support) < fixed
miui rom has no video player (not an issue, fact)

yeah.. youll just need apktool and related files from sdk to decompile and recompile apks and a text editor.. i started resizing launcher today.. and widgets are also hdpi res but they are all in zip files images/xmls so thats somewhat easy

ok finally peace and quiet.. widgets are in /system/media/gadget, there are clocks and photo_frame folders with widgets that also need to be resized.. when going from hdpi to ldpi i usually resize pictures to 50% of original size since racer is ldpi qvga device and then just fix x and y in xml files, that shouldnt be a big problem.. if anyone does any resizing, do test and post here so others would know what is edited so people dont resize same thing twice i will edit second post to keep people up to date with your helping

there are also /system/media/themes/default/icons file with icons that are 90x90.. its really messed up if they are resized and launcher is still unedited.. i resized them to 65x65 for now untill we get launcher dimensions fixed..

for any other apk that needs to be resized, i use apktool to decompile and edit layouts and dimens etc, thats not really for anyone, if you want to try, google apktool tutorial

who wants to help getting this rom to look nice, its more than welcome..

I'm so glad to see MIUI on this phone
By the way, if it's some help the X10 Mini team has managed to port MIUI v4 (ICS) to X10 mini. I know our phones have kernel problems with ICS but everything on their ROM is resized for LDPI.

actually, there is.. i used to mess around with that a while back, check this thread on how to modify it..
as for themes, i still didnt try any, im working really hard to get this rom all together for daily usage.. i heard somewhere that it needs some libs for themes to work if they dont that was based on armv7 roms, dunno if anyone have it for armv6/2.3.x roms.. if anyone has info about this, do post, ill also check later when i get this rom more usable
