Why I can't flash this ROM?

If you have issues flashing this ROM, edit the "updater-script" file as in this guide.

Why I can't flash the OTA updates automatically?

If you have flashed any custom zips in system folder (custom kernel, fonts, icons etc.) it won't let you update the OTA automatically. You have to edit the updater-script file following the guide here and here. Also check a "how to" video here.

How's the performance and battery life on this ROM?

No lags in the UI and battery life is very good. Here are some screenshots.

Can I receive and flash the OTA update automatically, if I have installed a custom kernel?

No, you have to be completely stock with only Gapps installed from OP in order to flash the weekly OTA updates automatically. That means if you have flashed a custom kernel, custom font zip, custom extended icon pack etc. then you won't be able to flash the OTA update automatically. Of course you can download the full weekly ROM and flash it manually.

Workaround: For flashing OTA updates while you have custom stuff flashed in system folder, check the post here.

I like to wake/sleep the device with the screen instead of the hard keys. Is there a setting for that?

Install Trickster MOD Kernel Settings app and enable the settings you like.

There's no setting to enable 4G/LTE on this ROM? Is 4G/LTE working?

There's no setting but 4G/LTE is working fine. Screenshot here.

Does MIUI have Internet/WiFi calling (SIP)?

Yes it does. Go to Phone/Settings/Call settings/Internet calling and add an account.. Screenshot here.

I don't like the Sense keyboard included, it looks out of place.

Try TouchPal X with the MIUI theme or the Xperia Z1 Keyboard.

How can I change Celsius to Fahrenheit in Weather app?

Download the Weather BZ app, it's got more features.

How can I add new mods i.e. hide the clock at the taskbar, add APM etc.?

With WSM Manager v2.1.4 download here. Instructions how to use WSM Tools see here.

I can't find the menu button in some apps.

Tap just above the HTC logo.

I can't see any option for Facebook contact sync?

Facebook won't sync, you have to use Friendcaster, HaxSync or another type of app.

I can't seem to find a setting to let me download large files over 3G/4G.

Open the Downloads app and go to Settings. Set the "Data usage" to unlimited and reboot. More info here.

I'm only getting "H" for my signal.

Go to mobile network settings and reset the APN settings to default and then re-select what ever provider you use and it should pick up 4G. More info here.

As soon as new typical questions appear, I will update this category
