First make sure you have at least 1gb free space on your internal storage/ ext card.
Then boot to cwm and make backup from there.

Have u installed cwm on ur fone? If no, then first install it(search cwm for miro) and follow the steps.
1. Turn of ur phone
2. Press power button.
3. When you see sony logo, start pressing volume - button repeatedly. You will be in cwm.
Press thanks if i helped.

Check the Development Section. Plenty of ROMs available there for Miro. See which one suits you.

for newbee......this one is best from fxp...download latest one 219

devise name mesona.......

It depends whether the phone has an unlocked bootloader. ;P
For example my Miro's BL can't be unlocked so I can't install cm 10..which obviously sucks.
So what I wanted to say is that you have to check if your bootloader is locked or unlocked.

Need QMobile A900 stock rom

Does any one have QMobile A900 stock rom which I can flash using SP flash tool. I will be very thankful. I trird many roms but when I restore my cwm recovery it gives error at restoring /system. This might be because I lost all patitions and then I flashed Blu Life rom which have different partitioning table. Also I flashed Blu Life preloader. So I need Srock rom of A900 with preloader and emmc file
Thanks

boot.img contains the kernel for the ROM to work... Unless you are using same base of the previous ROM.... It will bootloop :crying:

write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8"),

I think this is the lines you deleted.... Find the correct mount point of Boot.img..... Replace mmcblk0p8 with it... Itll flash successfully

No need to replace it. If you like, you can take the update-binary from a KitKat build (ectract it from the Rom.zip) and replace inside your ZIP.
