[App] MIUI Launcher Look a Like, Giving you the look of MIUI without the ROM

There is no question that people love the MIUI ROM’s that are out there. They have a unique style and design that has been widely sought after by many. In order to enjoy all that MIUI can offer you must be rooted and have at least a basic understanding of flashing custom ROMs to your device. Not to mention finding a MIUI ROM that is compatible with the device you have. That can sometimes be a trick and very time consuming. There is another option though. The same company that brought us the QQLauncher Pro, also has another launcher app in the market. It is called 腾讯桌面…. Ya, don’t go looking for it. We do however have some great people in the community that do the extra work to bring it to us in English.

XDA member Quinny899 has taken this MIUI style launcher and has done all the translation for us using uzitech’s Android Translator. NOw we know the app is called Tencent Desktop. Hooray for translator apps. Take a look at some screen shots.

  
  
If you are a huge MIUI fan, this is pretty darn close to the original UI. Once installed the app will act just like MIUI, sepperating all your apps to various screens. It takes a couple seconds for it to load up the first time so be patient. There may still be a few areas that have not been translated yet. If you run across any, let Quinny899 know via his XDA thread.

I have been alternating between this one and QQLauncher PRO for two days now. I have never been a huge fan of MIUI and its iPhoneish style, but it seems to work extremely well on my Vibrant. If you are interested in picking this up and giving at whirl on your device, bounce over to Quinny899’s XDA thread for download links. It is a simple APK so no trickery on installing this home replacement.
