MIUI Gingerbread Beta 3 For Samsung Galaxy Mini GT-S5570.

MIUI is one of the custom android rom which is quite famous for it's beautiful and appealing user interface among users. While it started as a closed-source software, recently it was open-sourced to large number of android communities making it possible for independent developers to port it for those devices that are not officially supported by MIUI yet. Luckily, Samsung Galaxy Mini GT-S5570 was able to get one of such port, all thanks to a developer Siznex. After main alphas and betas, MIUI Gingerbread for galaxy mini/pop has reached a whole new level with enough stability and performance to support various daily needs of different users.

MIUI Gingerbread Beta 3 For Galaxy Mini or Pop GT-S5570

Reaching Beta 3 of development, MIUI Gingerbread has almost everything up and running except for some few minor bugs. This rom is ported from various other unofficial MIUI roms which are developed for Galaxy Ace, LG Optimus One, P500 and other devices. However, the developer has re-sized the launcher and other icons to better suit the screen of galaxy mini smartphone, added some scripts, edited SystemUI and Settings and fixed few bugs that were there in previous versions. With the latest Beta 3, the dark background which appeared in the settings of third party app has also been fixed. Also, not to forget that the developer has combined CyaogenMod Settings in System Settings of this custom rom, however, most of the settings there don't work for now. Rest everything is fine and rom should be usable for daily requirements.
