Install MIUI Port of Ice Cream Sandwich ICS 4.0
Download the ROM zip file miui alpha2-signed.zip (114.82 MB) from here. You will need the Google Apps file too after flashing the ROM. You can Flash GAPPS using the file from here.
Put the files on your SD Card’s main folder for easy navigation since the recovery mode is tough to navigate with hard keys.
- Your phone must be rooted and you must have ClockworkMod installed on your smartphone to boot your phone into your recovery Mode.
- After you boot in recovery mode, use your Volume key at right side of phone to scroll up and down. You need to clear few settings before you can flash to your phone to the new ROM.
- Clear user Data/factory reset>> Clear/wipe Cache >> clear Dalvik Cache. Dalvik cache option comes under advance options in recovery mode.
- After this choose install zip from sdcard option.
- Select the ROM (the same file that you just downloaded i.e miui alpha2-signed.zip) to install. Your ROM will begin to install.
- Once installed press the back button few times to go back to the main screen of Clockwork Recovery.Choose reboot system now.
- You need to reboot to recovery again to install the Google Apps. Use Gapps file downloaded from the link above for flashing it.
