I'm new to the world Miui! And I need help !!!
I bought a Mi4 - 2GB RAM version - in a bazaar on facebook in my city.
I went to see the device, really spectacular, until then beauty. I noticed he had the CM13 - Snapshot version. As I came from a LG G2 that was running the Miui 8, I soon thought, I'll go back to the stock rom.
I researched, researched and found a rom tutorial to go through fastboot. I did the whole procedure. When the phone starts and you enter the configuration screen came the surprise: I was asking for activation of Mi account, there was an ID, which I totally do not know of anyone.
I got in touch with the poor guy, who was more lost than blind in a shooting, he had no idea what it was, since he had already bought someone else's equipment the way he had delivered.
I really wanted to go back to using MIUI, but apparently I have no choice but to stay in CM, am I wrong?
Flash TWRP and use Xiaomi.eu ROMs. Also make sure your Mi 4 is a CU version and not a CT. If it's a CT I recommend using CM13 or 14

I recently came into the possession of a HTC Desire 620G Dual Sim (it was my father's) Android 4.4.2, Kernel 3.4.67, Chipset Mediatek MT6592 (Online is liste as android 4.4.4 but that is a lie). After days of searching the web and reading countless forums I came to the conclusion that this is a very unpopular and abandoned smartphone. I really want to change the android version on this phone, I know how to root, I learned from this forums. The only problem I have is that I can't find any android versions ported for this phone, I need anything newer than 4.4.2, I would like 4.4.4 or lollipop as i heard it runs better. I checked all custom androids none has support for this device, I cant even find this phone on the clockworkmod and TWRP list of devices. What do I do now? If I can't even install a custom recovery on this phone? So to sum this up, I need a custom recovery mode for this phone and a ported android version newer than 4.4.2. I would appreciate any help.

Hi, even if my answer has nothing to do with what you asked, you seem to have the abilities to make a backup copy of your stock rom, that's waiting that you still have your stock rom in that phone and it's european model.
Could you please be so kind to make a backup copy of your rom?
And by the way, there's at least one russian guy that has cooked one rom for this phone, even if it seems to have some issues yet.
Thanks in advance

Hi, I'm very sorry I flashed MIUI v5.8.27 Beta, a rom found on these forums ported by a guy, maybe the same guy you speak of. I regret it now, I need the stock rom back, I liked it better. I did found something over the web a stock rom but I'm to wuss to try it because there is a chance I'll brick my phone and this is the only phone I got. Do you want to try that stock rom? I'll find it again for you.

That's very kind of you. I have in fact found also a stock Rom, but is not the same the version as my phone's, plus is a Rom for phones sold in India and I bought mine at in Europe, so I prefer not to "risk" this time.
There are some sites that really have all the roms, but they want money to let you download anything, is quite "strange" and I will not say anything else about that.
Sadly, HTC doesn't provide free download for any of their devices, like they used to do and I am not sure about what could happen if I download and install one of those branded roms that can ba apparently downloaded.
Finally, what I want is simply recover the "normal" functionality of this phone, because after rooting, I lost the camera function, the whole system became absolutely unstable and getting worst, so now it resets itself without warning just like that and it's not providing any acoustical messages anymore, so I know I will never root again a phone with any of those "tools", I will do it old style, connecting with a command line terminal.
So maybe that Rom you're using may fit the bill for me, but I couldn't find a way to install cwm or twrp on this phone to install any cooked Rom and I've been really out of this chores for quite some time to know enough to find the right way to do this on my own.
So thanks for any help you can provide and I think it would be really nice to provide this Rom here because it's more than one person who needs it and apparently no one really cares about this phone, there are several people with these problems.
I've looked everywhere on Xda in search of a support thread for the Blu studio 7.0 I and II. Couldn't find either. So I figured I would create one. If I have created it in the wrong section please move it to the correct section. Thanks
The Blu studio 7.0 is a "low end" android device that comes carrier unlocked and supports dual Sim. You can obtain it for GSM and CDMA networks. As the name states. This device offers a 7 inch screen and is considered a phablet. I haven't ever used the first version of the Blu studio 7.0, but the specs are not that great on paper.
The second version has 1gb of ram and a quad core processor. On paper the screen specs aren't too great, but I've not had any issues with the way it looks. The worst part of this phone is no flash, and camera quality is hit or miss. I don't use the camera too much anyways other than making YouTube videos for my blog. So it's not a huge downfall.
The operating system on the 2nd variant runs android lollipop and I've read rumors that it's going to be upgraded to marshmallow when it's available. Most of the already released Blu devices will not receive android 6.0.
Root is very easily obtained on the Blu studio 7.0, if you need help obtaining it. Just ask below and I'll assist you in obtaining root. You don't need a computer, and it's just 1 click from your phablet.
The studio 7.0 supports 4g but not lte which may be a downfall in your eyes, but 4g is fast enough for what I do so far.
This phone is very very responsive and hasn't lagged at all for me. I consider myself a power user. I am constantly using multiple apps all at the same time (Google a sense, analytics, Fanduel, WordPress, multiple websites opened, texting app, tapatalk and a few others all running in the memory with no lag).
If you've ever used a lower end device. You know that one of the most annoying plagues on them are keyboard lags. I absolutely hate when I have to slow down my typing because the keyboard can't keep up. It makes me want to smash phones. This keyboard is great. Never lags, and never freezes.
For under 150$ usd. I'd buy it again.

If you need any help with your Blu 7.0 this is the thread to ask for it. As well as asking, please give support for this phone as well. As of right now. I don't believe that there are any custom roms for it yet. If you know of any custom roms for this phone. Please post them here as well.

Battery life: the battery on this phone is amazing. I can go through an entire day and a half on a full charge. I believe it's around 3800 mah. It does take a few hours to charge though. It doesn't get hot to the touch either. A lot of phones get hot if using it while charging. So far I haven't noticed that with this device.

I sure hope so because I would love to see some progress on Mods for this device. I have one that we couldn't use at work (some stupid lady tried forcing her SIM into the SD Card slot) so I use it as a Droid tablet. I will say that this is one of the reasons I will never buy Android; finding legit info on modding Droid phones is so hard and most sites are nothing more than fake sites that want me to complete surveys. I'll stick with my iPhone 6s Plus as my primary phone, but this BLU would be a whole lot more fun to play around with if 90% of any info I find on it wasn't false.
I need some help... I was messing around with my build prop and now everything is huge and i don't know how to get it back to regular size... I've looked in all the options to make things small but still no luck I even tried factory reset and still no luck I have the Blu studio 7.0ii

Couldn't find the rom or flash to reset it. Called Blu and sent them the picture of the reset screen.
Help!
Stuck on the BLU Bold like us screen. Will not go beyond that. IS there ANYWHERE to get the stock image? Everywhere I have found you either have to pay for it, or it's a BS survey scam.
People cannot hear me on the phone. What can I do. I already did a factory reset and hard reset

The posted firmware will work with fastboot method only.
So... I finally caved, and decided to replace my beloved Samsung Galaxy Nexus running CNA 3.8 ROM in December.
I still remember, however, that it took three DAYS (literally!) to get that phone rooted & install the custom ROM that I wanted some three or four years ago, so I did my homework this time. Well, at least I thought I did... (I have also installed a CM ROM on a Samsung 10.1 Tablet).
But Verizon Hates Me. I chose a Samsung (I like their products) Galaxy S5 because there were many CyanogenMod ROMS available for it... Hey, how hard could it be?!?
Many of you know the answer to that question... The first S5 I bought had already received a Verizon OTA 'Update' which completely disallowed any kind of rooting. OK, Lesson Learned, right? Back to eBay & I buy ANOTHER S5 (vzwlte) that was ALREADY rooted (TowelRoot/SafeStrap), and after my initial attempts to make the *bleeping* thing usable, I am THIS _||_ CLOSE to settling because while it does have root (meaning that I can live with it), I still completely cannot install a ROM... 'Latest roadblock is that I tried to restore SMS through Titanium Backup Pro, and now I can't get any SMS app to work, however that's not my question. (I can wipe it again and get back to 'Usable', but I still want the options available with a custom ROM...)
So... All that setup to ask my Question: What phone should I buy that is similar to the Samsung S5, will support VERIZON network, and allow me to root & install a custom ROM (preferably CM, but only because I'm familiar with that one)...? I think 5" is best for my needs, I don't care much between a 'good' and a 'GREAT' camera... I just want a reliable 5" phone that I can root, install a nice, stable, clean ROM on, and then add an ad-blocker!
Please, any suggestions?

Just got gifted this phone, which was a lovely gesture but I havent had a non vanilla android phone since the nexus 4..
I cant take it back or exchange it, so trying to decide if I sell it sealed, or if theres any hope of a PE style ROM.

As custom rom development for this device seems to be very poor, I would sell it sealed if I were you.
Nothing new in this topic? No custom rom for this phone?
Actually the default stock ROM is not bad. I don't know what the other custom ROM can provide because this phone supports the latest Android 12. I only do custom ROM when the Samsung doesn't provide OTA update anymore.
Hi, I recently updated from Android 11 to 12 and I want to go back (reasons). I have a Moto G31 bought in the Philippines.
My question is mainly about stock roms if I were to flash the firmware:
- Would I be able to get it to be identical to when I bought the phone? i.e all the same few preinstalled Moto apps and it would still go through all the normal Moto updates again?
- Would the warranty (according to the device itself) be intact? also, in other words, would the phone itself know it was different from when I first bought it?
- Would a stock rom from say Brazil be different to the one I should have on my Phillippines model (assuming they both have the exact same version number RRWB31.Q3-46-85)?
Thank you in advance for any replies
You are not the only one wanting to go back. I have found the correct ROM for me (eu) but not the correct instructions. The Lenovo forum has several pages in the thread for Android 12 problems on the G31 and people are pretty upset. There is another thread here too asking for help on rolling back the ROM, and I hope someone here on XDA who is knowledgeable can help.
