I mean MIUI rom, Iooks pretty stable, no crashes until now, all programs working, personally I'm really like it and I'm coming from B10 that was very stable and relatively fast.

---------- Post added at 05:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

It's rooted and you need to install gapps that developer recommended after installing the ROM

---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 PM ----------

B10 is good and stable but if you take the new official kitkat vs MIUI 4.4.2, MIUI much better and developer told it will be updated weekly and not like official zte roms

---------- Post added at 06:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

its with Chinese and English only, you can easily install morelocal because its rooted
[Device Reviews and Information] Steeve_02:
When you are talking about gapps which are recommended by the develloper, which one is it?

gapps 4.4 or gapps -kk-20140606?

Or If you can post a link , it would be fine! thank you

I will test this rom tomorrow i think

Is the miui rooted ? it doesn´t have supersu and when i install it i can´t upgrade the binaries.

EDIT: found it in security icon .... the miui is harder to use :D
[Device Reviews and Information] chetbiz:
you always can install your favorite launcher but yeah you have to get used to settings menu and where things are but overall I personally love it :o
[Device Reviews and Information] jozco313:
Yes is definitely better than the stock rom , but i prefer stock android like Cyanogenmod , i hope it will be ported soon :)

A third one has just come out,it can be updated from 4.3 directly. http://www.miui.com/thread-1878481-1-1.html

Besides,you can OTA update weekly,Friday or Saturday.

Sorry, i found the answer of my question. I did not read all your previous post..

---------- Post added at 07:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 PM ----------

I don't have access to internet without wi-fi at all.

So i think we have to manually set it up.
[Device Reviews and Information] chetbiz:
The developer said u need to dial * # * # 4636 # * # * and in phone information choose WCDMA, after that u need to configure apn settings to have 3g
[Device Reviews and Information] Steeve_02:
Yes,

Thank you. I have set up by using the tutorial of my network provider.

It's a good rom, stable, WITH root, it's a bit difficult to deal with the miui launcher, so i choose nova launcher.

But exept that , nothing bad to say.

How can I download MIUI 4.7.31 from link?
[Device Reviews and Information] 5KKKKK:
you need to register an account (or Login), reply anything to that post ,then refresh the page and you will see the hidden download link.You can do this in all these forums.

Besides,you could OTA from previous version(much less than1M), and that link should have been changed to 4.7.31,or download from http://www.myzte.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=180513&mobile=yes

or download the ROM directly: http://miuirom.xiaomi.com/rom/u67857581/4.7.31/miui_s291_gtbluesky_4.7.31_c137671952_4.4.zip
[Device Reviews and Information] OpenMinded:
there are some options with dual sim and lte, al qualcomm based.

Among them are the Huawei P7, ZTE Nubia X6 and Nubia Z7.

There seems to be no phone that has dual sim, lte, nfc and TF card slot yet.

The Coolpad P6 comes close, and the P7 has a slot that can contain either sim or TF card.

None are IP67 by the way.

Too bad that Grand II is not dual sim.

I will go for the coolpad or the P7 or the Z7.

Hi , there is an update for MIUI the version is now 4.8.1 ut i have a problem to update it over OTA. Someone got it installed ? Does it fix the problem with 2G/3G network and mobile hotspot ?
[Device Reviews and Information] chetbiz:
MIUI 4.8.1.by hasz

There is no way to update it over ota, you need to download full rom 4.8.1 and install it manually in recovery and install gapps, no need to do full wipe if you were on 4.7.29.

Developer knows the problem with OTA and fixed it in 4.8.1.

Fixes in 4.8.1:

1. add factory settings: Dolby screen assistant, intelligent split screen, actions and gestures, display, glove mode, timer switch

2. open the volume key wakeup function

3. fixes Ringtones choose from Android FC

4. fix the problem in full screen black fillet

5. adjust the earpiece volume is 88 to call

6. corrected automatically when the ota upgrade path error (if the update from 4.7.29 to 4.8.1,

7. add desktop 3x4 \ 5x5 \ 6x6 layout

8. fix some text errors

Resume of ROMS ,recovery, updates, root tools.

Hi,

I tried to sum up all the important roms, recoveries and updates, because i'm fed up to seek any pages to find the Rom i want, so i try to give all the link for anyone who is annoyed by the same problem. There is not ALL the rom and update, i just took some of them, and i have tested all the link, but i did not try to install them on my ZTE.

That's why, when i say "tested: yes" means that the link to download is functionnal. I don't know if it will help , but i hope so :).

I hope it is understandable(i'm french^^)

Hi 5KKKKK,

When I want to flash 4.8.1 I get the error message "This package is for "msm8974" devices; this is a "s291"." Need I to change something? In update-script file first line checks for this. When I wiped it out, installation works fine. But I get the same problem with every OTA-update and so on.

Where can I get the new Chinese recovery? You know I have a probleme with chinese language. Perhaps there is an english version?
[Device Reviews and Information] PaulTT:
You cannot flash gtbluesky's Miui using the bilingual CWM recovery. You have to use the the chinese only recovery (otherwise you get the error "This package is for "msm8974" devices; this is a "s291"). I suggest you use Hasz's Miui, which works just fine with both recoveries (and it works better in my oppinion). Anyway, I'm back to stock 4.3 (rooted and cleaned), and I will stay there until the official/stable KK will be out.

Installed MIUI 4.81 by gtbluesky from here - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54541297&postcount=331

After installation, RootChecker said the system has no root.

The phone was rooted by utility for adndroid 4.4 from here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54568264&postcount=349 (thanks, chetbiz!).

Recovery - CWM telley 6.0.5.0 chinese ?only? language.

From this moment, I tried several OTA updates - 4.8.2, 4.8.3, 4.8.4 - OTA update fails all the time with such command promt:

E: invalid command argument

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verification failed.

Also tried 4.8.1 by hasz - the same problem.

How can I try to update it manually from recovery? Where the update files stored?
[Device Reviews and Information] 5KKKKK:
only one improvement from 4.8.3 to 4.8.4, here is my translation：add the underlying file of official second version（Android4.4）, please download the complete package and install it from recovery,If the complete package that downloaded from OTA occur “signature error”,click “yes--install”. Since the official update dolby sound, If you do not flash the underlying file, will cause that the phone have no sound.Install the complete package will avoid this problem

In a word, you should download the complete package（4.8.4）and install it from custom recovery

Others are improvements in 4.8.1 and 4.8.3

My English is not good,hope you can understand.

I've had mine for a week now. Some problems I've found:

1. No network location, even after flashing GApps (common issue with many China phones). Only pure GPS (must wait for satellites.)

2. When installing apps from Play Store, the system's default download manager attempts to install the app again, even after Play Store has just installed it. This is quite irritating.

Anyone have any fixes or known working ROMs? The ones I've found all don't fix these.
