[HOW TO] MiUI 2.8.3 | DS - HTC Desire S

Okay, to make this clear, Im re-making the tutorial from miuiandroid forum, which is a little bit complicated if you are in noob mode.
So, first of all, to have MIUIv4 installed on your DS, you need the hboot 7.0. If you already have hboot 7.0 , follow from step 1, if you dont have hboot 7.0 follow all from step A :
Download this first : http://bigota.d.miui.com/tools/g12_v4_tools_20120724.zip
A. Rename PG88IMG_hboot_7.0.zip to PG88IMG.zip
B. Put it in your sd card root.
C. Reboot to bootloader from device, or use adb command ( adb reboot bootloader). Once you in bootloader, make sure it's not on fastboot, get back to bootloader, and it will detects the PG88IMG by itself, and confirmation for update will be shown, just press the vol up button to flash it.
D. It will reboot somehow. Delete the PG88IMG in your sd card root.
E. continue on step 1
1. Rename PG88IMG_SAGA_ICS_35_S_HTCCN_CHS_3.07.1400.2_Radio_20.72.30.0833U_3831.17.00.310_release_266765_signed.zip to PG88IMG.zip
2. Put it in your sd card root.
3. Reboot to bootloader from device, or use adb command ( adb reboot bootloader). Once you in bootloader, make sure it's not on fastboot, get back to bootloader, and it will detects the PG88IMG by itself, and confirmation for update will be shown, just press the vol up button to flash it. It's easy, but this PG88IMG is big, so it will take like 5 minutes to load.
4. Reboot.
5. wait untill it finish starting up, you may skip the first time setup or complete it.
6. Delete PG88IMG from your sd card.
6. Now it is time to flash recovery image as you dont have recovery yet.
7. reboot device into fastboot usb
8. in the folder adb, there's flash_recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-saga.bat , run it as it will flash cmw recovery image in your DS.
- if you have error such as multiple device detected or what so ever, open up adb shell and run adb kill-server .
9. Reboot into recovery, full wipe
10. And flash miuiandroid_saga-2.8.3

hi there
going to try the new miui as havent used miui since the latest GB version.

i think my radio is the same actually, but i may flash again to be sure

cheers OP for original post

I believe you may need to re flash your recovery after flashing the second pg88img..

To boot in the bootloader you can also power off the phone and then press the volume down and the power button at the same time.
But the fastboot commands later probably won't work if adb doesn't ...

ClockWork Mod wont install in Recovery

I've got a Sensation (I think its a Phillipenes issue) which was upgraded to ICS 4.0.3.
Basically I've managed to complete HTC Dev Unlock, then a few days later I lost Wi-Fi connection, so have been trying to continue with installing a Custom (or even the original) ROM in an attempt to fix it.
I've now done Junoptobear to get true S-OFF
Got root access
But cant get Clockwork Mod to install in Recovery...
I've installed ROMmanager Premium and used it to install the latest Clockwork Mod - it states its downloaded and completed but when I go to the bootloader and select Recovery it flashes the white HTC screen for a brief second then back to the bootloader.
I've tried to manually download the Clockwork Mod file and install to Recovery but I get the same issue.
Does anyone have any ideas?? Many thanks!
Hi there you can install 4ext recovery you can get the file here in xda or even from the play store. Many of us use 4ext because it has many options and is very easy to use.personally I prefer 4ext. All I did was download from the play store and opened the app follow directions choose version of recovery and it will flash from the application. I was already rooted and soff when I did it but it's very easy to do. I really think you will like 4 ext recovery. You already have s OFF and root so it should not be a problem. Best of luck to you. I hope this helps! As I mentioned most of us use 4 ext recovery and I doubt you will be disappointed. Good luck.

[Q] Unlocked bootloader and root 2.20, but now can't install twprp recovery

Hey Guys So i was able to successfully unload my bootloader and root my phone via 2.20 root temp method. Now i've run into a wall where I seem to be following the directions, but can't seem to get it to work.
So after my phone was unlocked etc after the whole token thingy... (Sorry this is my first time since 3-4 years ago that i have rooted.. Last phone was a Droid X so excuse my ignorance).... Anyhow so my phone got reset and all and booted back and everything was fine and working.. Now according to the thread in order to flash a ROM of my choice i need to install some sort of Recovery tool. The instructions say to install TWRP-2.3.1.0-evita.img. I have put the .img on the same folder c:android that i have created where i have the adb, fastboot files. I open up a command prompt window and run the command "fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.3.1.0-evita.img and it says "waiting for device" and get's stuck there and nothing happens.
According to the post it is supposed to install it and restart my phone automatically, however nothing happens. I am afraid if i reboot my phone and try again that my temp root will go away and will have to redo-everything all over again. Additionally I have tried the market place method where you download "Goomanager" and install the twrp img via menu>openrecoveryscript and choose to download, however i get an error when attempting to download. Can someone point me in the right direction. And will i lose temp root if i reboot my phone?
"Hey guys i just notice i did not run the "adb fastboot" command to tell my phone to reboot first prioer to trying to flash the twrip image. Sorry"

I just downloaded superuser and busybox. Also i downloaded root checker and when i click on check root it says my phone is NOT PROPERLY ROOTER. Can this be because of how HTC ONE X gets temp rooted and this app doesn't work properly? How can i check for sure if i'm rooted? I mean i can get into TWRP recovery and everything with no issues. Thanks.
I believe that because you did not download superuser before reboot. I think you lost root. Might want to try again.
Sent from my One X using xda premium
So after i Ran the run.bat and did the entire cid and then token thingy from HTC site and unlocked my bootloader the phone rebooted on it's own.
I believe i need to install superuser via recovery or flash a rom first then install not sure.. the way the dev wrote this phrase is confusing to me.. Check it out...
10. After unlocking the bootloader, you can flash a custom recovery partition via fastboot, boot into recovery mode, and use a recovery ADB shell or install from an update.zip to install Superuser and su (I do not provide support for custom recoveries, but this is a straightforward process that other people can help with).
I mean every step form 1-9 all went successfully. Can you provide me with some tips ?
Oh OK. I get it. Give a sec I'll post what you need.
Sent from my One X using xda premium
Thanks for helping me out, much appreciated. Also look's like i will need to find the superuser file somewhere online. I believe it needs to be inside a .zip. If i need that can you please provide that info on the instructions. Thank you so much for helping me.

So i did not download the CM recovery as i already had the TWRP recovery installed prior to my post. I put the superuser zip file in my CD Card then i adb reboot recovery within command prompt which brought me into the Team Win Recovery Project V2.3.1.0, I then selected install and choose the superuser zip file you linked me to download, however it fails with errors. Do you know what I am doing wrong?
I think this all has to happen before rebooting after the new root process. So CID, then flash recovery, load and flash superuser, then reboot. I'm not sure how others are getting it to stick. I'm rooted on 1.85 with both my HOX's

I think I'm spot on with my last post.

What would be the ADB shell command to install lets say a file labelled superuser.zip ?
I've never tried nor know if possible to flash a zip in fastboot. To the best of my knowledge it has to be a image file.

Did you wait long enough? If it is the first boot it might take from 10-15 minutes.
If else dont work, go back to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik, then fix permission. Most things work like this.

Hi,
I already have this problem with my Sensation when I installed for the first time custom rom. The solution was to unzip the boot.img from the zip you downloaded and flash the boot.img.
Here is the solution that works for me :
Install the android-sdk (if not already done, yoou have a lot of tuto about it)
Extract boot.img from the zip you downloaded (the custom rom)
Put your mobile in fastboot and plug your usb cable
Launch a windows cmd (or a linux terminal)
And execute the cmd line :
fastboot flash boot <PATH TO YOUR BOOT.IMG>
Then reboot your device.
Let me know if it solved yout problem

Are you doing all this steps ? Because I thinks you're doing too many things!
1 Install recovery (4ext for example)
2 Boot into recovery mode
3 wipe data/factory, cache and dalvik
4 Install custom rom from sdcard (and gapps if you need it)
5 Reboot
If you are still block on the boot logo (wait a long time, it depends on the rom), shut down by removing the battery. Enter in fastboot, plug usb cable, and flash the boot.img as i explained to you. If it still doesn't work, try with another rom to be sure all is ok with your device!
You don't have to flash the custom rom and flash again with the original, just follow the steps I write and all will be fine

[SOLVED] HELP PLease! Cannot go passed HTC ONE splash screen/ will not boot

I know you have seen this title a lot of times
I have looked for a thread that can help me with this but nothing helps...
Ok so here's what happened:
I had my HTC One X At&t version and everything was fine except i wasnt getting any updates. I was on version 1.73 so I decided to download the RUU for jellybean... it installed the new hboot 2.14 (the original one installed was 1.08). But the installation didnt go through after that.
Then I decided to download the other RUUs for Jellybean but some said that i wasnt charged enough even though i had 100% battery charge...
THEN I downloaded a stock deodexed image, Unlock the bootloader and installed TWRP and then flashed the stock deodexed image on my phone.
Now the phone will not go passed the HTC One splash screen :crying: I have tried wiping cache/ factory reset, and flashing the boot iimg from that deodexed zip
I can still get into fastboot and recovery i guess but not much after that! Can you guys please help me! This is the only phone I had ( just got rid of My nexus4)
Help please!

Wipe all of those through fast boot, especially cache

Could you be more specific... I can't get into any type of recovery or even flash one...

Wait, you can't even fastboot flash the recovery (i.e. TWRP)?
No
It says:
(boot loader) signature checking....
Failed...
When I try to flash a recovery or boot image... Doesn't matter if its TWRP or stock
Your bootloader is locked. Unlock it.

SOLVED
Alright so i fixed it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1891598
BAsically (Above post) is correct.
Here is what I did:
1) Unlock Bootloader
2) Flash TWRP 3.3.1
3)In TWRP, Wipe EVERYTHING (system, dalvik, cache, everything)
4) In TWRP mount as USB drive ( had to format it on Windows to be able to use it)
5) Move the ROM to your phone's storage
6)Wipe cache,dalvik cache, system, and factory reset (yes again)
7)Flash rom
From here on out i followed this thread's intructions because I was getting a bootloop: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293032
8)If your're s-off or on hboot 1.09 then you can reboot to system. If your're not s-off and have hboot 1.14 or greater go to step 9
9)Reboot to bootloader and select fastboot
10)Open the rom.zip and copy the boot.img to your fastboot directory.
11)Plug phone into computer and verify connection (make sure it says Fastboot USB)
12)Flash boot.img with this command: fastboot flash boot boot.img
13Now you can reboot to system and enjoy the rom.
Now I have a fully stock HTC ONE X (unlocked) on At&t ...with 4.1.1 >>> but these instructions should work for any ROM
Thanks again for your help and concerns!

Softbricked One Mini

so I've got a interesting situation. A friend managed to softbrick his Mini. I don't know how he got it in this state, but, it has TWRP installed, its copy of android does not boot, and it's S-ON. I played with RUUs for a few hours and couldn't get any of them to work. If I can get any working copy of android on it I can then get S-OFF and fix it. As far as I see there's two routes to fix this.
-Get S-OFF without using android
-Get a android ROM on there without S-OFF.
I pretty much have access to fastboot and twrp that can't flash Roms because of s on. Recoveries also have errors about mounting /system or /cache.
Any help in fixing this would be appreciated.

Adding abit more information, I tried using a RUU but get errors because of firmware version. When I get the rom.zip out of the RUU and try to use fastboot to flash it, on windows I get a error about header errors (error 32). On Linux I get errors about the file is too large.
Also, nomatter what recovery I can try, neither can mount either /system or /cache unless you format them, then after a reboot they cant be mounted again.
I had an issue where my os was completely wiped after a botched update attempt. Lol I went through every possible I could think of or find until I see something about using an external drive. So what I did was use fastboot to flash a recovery, which you already have which is good. And then from there I used an OTG cable, and connected my USB drive to it, which had a ROM zip on it and flashed it. It worked. I am bootloader unlocked but not s-off. But as long as you have a recovery you can do this. I actually wasn't even rooted.

I'm still worried about the failing to mount /system and /cache errors. Did you have those as well?

You don't need S-OFF to flash roms. As long as you unlocked the bootloader you can fastboot-flash boot, system and recovery. And so you can flash ROMs when in recovery mode.

Well, then it looks like the same issue as in the thread next to this one. So please go over there and perhaps you'll try my next steps written down there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51737651

I followed that and it got me a working recovery, but both twrp versions and the cwm version won't flash the cm zip, regardless if its modified, if I modify it myself or use a attached update-script. Both recoveries simply say "Failed to flash zip".

Then you should repeat the flashing and have a look at the recovery log right after it. At TWRP it's located at /tmp/recovery.log (don't know for CWM).
Either do a
Code:
adb shell cat /tmp/recovery.log
or pull it to your pc:
Code:
adb pull /tmp/recovery.log

Already tried multiple times, of course. I looked at the log and didnt see anything of value though. I can post it if you like.

That's what I recommended in another post:

Meanwhile you could try flashing CM11. There is an edited updater-script and boot.img over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51613028
I used it with cm-11-20140403-NIGHTLY-m4 successfully. Maybe the edited script works with newer versions of the CM nightlies as well, but I didn't test that yet.

This is the 0403 CM11 nightly I modified to match the new partition layout: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5035075/m4kk/cm-11-20140403-NIGHTLY-m4kk.zip
You should be able to flash it with the modified version of TWRP 2.7.0.5
