Better MIUI Icons

The Better MIUI Icons module is a systemless change that makes Xiaomi devices running older versions of the MIUI operating system look better. The main job of this program was to swap out the standard system icons for a newer, more cohesive set. This gave the user interface a new look and feel. The module’s goal was to make the system look more unified by focusing on certain parts of it. Many users thought this was better than the default icon pack.

But it’s important to know that this project is now a “legacy module.” The official repository has been archived, and development has stopped. This means that the module is no longer being worked on and won’t get any more updates to fix bugs or work with newer versions of software.

Core Features and Systemless Integration

The Android modification community has made “systemless” installation the norm, and this module was made to work that way. It makes changes without directly changing the device’s core system partition by using frameworks like Magisk, KSU, or APatch. This method has a lot of benefits, such as better safety, easy uninstallation, and a lower chance of conflicts that could cause a device to not boot (a “bootloop”).

Once the module is installed on a system that can use it, it adds a new set of icons to the /system/media/theme/miui_mod_icons directory without any problems. The user interface would then show these new icons in a number of important places, such as:

This complete replacement made sure that the experience was always the same and looked good, which improved the overall design language of the operating system for users who liked a more modern icon style.

Important Compatibility Notice

This module doesn’t work with the newer versions of MIUI or HyperOS. The MIUI EU weekly build “20.7.9” was the last time the module’s features were checked. Later updates to MIUI made big changes to the system’s theming engine, file structure, and security protocols. This made the way this module changed things no longer useful.

We strongly advise against trying to install this module on a version of the system that isn’t supported. It probably won’t work as planned and could cause problems you didn’t expect, like graphical glitches, system instability, or not being able to apply the icons at all. People who use newer software should look for other theming options or icon packs in the Google Play Store or other community sites.

Icon Provenance and Licensing Details

This package comes with high-quality icons that were carefully taken from the well-known MiRoom ROM project. MiRoom was a popular custom ROM that is no longer available, but it was well-liked for its careful design and features that put the user first.

It is important to distinguish between the module’s code and its visual assets regarding licensing:

Download and Source Code

You can download the module from the official releases page if you have an older version of MIUI that works with it or if you want to keep it for later. You can still look at the source code in the archived GitHub repository.
