[Solution] Install MIUI 3.2.1 - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

I don't know if you have the trouble whe you trying to install the last version of MIUI, you just get a white screen with htc logo, so you should try:
(I made this on windows and for GSM)
1.Download the last version of MIUI (unofficial_miuiandroid_vivow_GSM_ics-3.2.1)
2.Download unofficial_miuiandroid_vivo_ics-2.12.29_GSM
3.Copy both files on SD card
4.Restar your phone on recovery mod (I have 4ext)
5.Make a backup
6.Format all except your sd card
7.Install from sd card MIUI 2.12.29 and reboot (This should boot)
8.Reboot into recovery mod
9.Install from sd card MIUI 3.2.1 top on the MIUI 2.12.29 (if you restar now, you are going to have the white screen)
10.Restar into bootloader
On pc:
1. open a "cmd" window
2.Go to folder who have the adb file ( I guess you have this if you root and s-off your phone)
you should have on the cmd window something like "c:\Android" where Android is the folder to contain the adb file
3.Open the unofficial_miuiandroid_vivo_ics-2.12.29_GSM.zip with WINZIP or another program
4.Extract the boot.img on the "c:\Android"
5. Conect the phone to pc
6.On cmd window write: fastboot devices (you should see your phone information, if you don't, so your phone are not on bootloader)
7.if you get the phoen info so you have write: fastboot flash boot boot.img (we are flashing the boot.img)
8.Write fastboot reboot
9.Enjoy you MIUI 3.2.1 on HTC Incredible 2

That's only to worry if your unlocked and I'm pretty sure people should know this if they are unlocked, but thanks for the look out in the community :thumbup:

I think you missed the point. The newest version of miui won't boot with the supplied boot image. He gave instructions on how to take the boot image out of the latest version that WILL boot and use it with the actual newest version of the Rom which will NOT boot. It's basically like flashing a Rom when HTC Dev unlocked, but in this case S-Off folks also need to do this. There's another method in the MIUI tHread in the Dev section but this one is easier.

I guess, if you have the same problem with the cdma version, this may work, you should try.

Modpunk has a CWM 6.0.0.3 build with his CM9 builds. It works pretty well. There is a Marvel and a Marvelc version.

It's as a PG76IMG that needs to be renamed... Or you can extract it and flash it yourself.

[Q] I did a really stupid thing (Formatted HTC One X ... completely)

So yeah ... Hi
Yesterday evening I decided that I was sick of HTC Sense and wanted to unlock my bootloader, root my HTC One X and install cyanogenmod.
When I got, what appeared to be a bootloop, I panicked and did something really stupid. I kinda decided that it was a good idea to go into my ClockworkMod Recovery and formatted everything, including data and system.
Now I can't do anything with my phone of course. Also there appears to be no way to access the SD card inside and I can't take it out.
I have no recoveries or backup's and my laptop does not detect my phone at all.
Please help me, I would like to get my phone fixed as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance
If you have the latest version of Clockworkmod just go to 'mounts and storage' and mount usb storage. Afterwards, copy your ROM zip onto the sdcard

You need to look in the search for one x one click tool (there are others) and use that. There will be instructions on the thread though it's pretty self explanatory. Don't panic your phone will be fine but I'd turn it off as you read or you will cause yourself more hassle. Im typing this as I walk so can't be more helpful.

Download this recovery
http://db.tt/Krlm4dPs
Rename it to recovery.img and copy it to the fastboot folder on the pc, now put the phone in fastboot usb mode (hold power and volume down button until it restarts into the bootloader)
Flash it with fastboot
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache
Then enter recovery and mount the sdcard as usb drive and copy the Rom.zip over. Boot back into bootloader with this command
Adb reboot bootloader
Flash the boot.img from the rom.zip from fastboot (copy it from the rom.zip to the fastboot folder on pc, just like the recovery)
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
Enter recovery and do a full wipe and install the rom.zip from the menu "install zip from sdcard"
Should do it !
Ok, thanks for all the great info guys. Because of you I am now able to connect my phone to my pc however I installed cyanogenmod 10 and somehow it flashed the boot.img and it still does not boot. The only thing I get to see is the HTC screen and that is what it stays on. Does anyone have any more tips to solve this and let me boot into my cyanogenmod?
Hboot version?

2 things could be - or your HBOOT version is too low or you haven't flashed the boot.img of the rom before/after the installation

hmmm.... no... i mean if he had like an 1.12 version he can't install JB roms untill he updates to 1.3x HBOOT or will happen what happen to him - he will stuck on the boot... am i wrong?
That only applies to Sense ROMs.
On CM10 and some other AOSP roms it's the other way around: they only run on older hboots and updating hboot results in bootloop.
It can be fixed though, but we need his hboot version.

Like I said, it can be fixed. You only have to flash a kernel which is modified to work with newer hboots. It is is post 9308 in CM10 thread. And fyi: GPS is not functional on this kernel.

At the moment I am able to connect to my pc and able so that issieu has already been fixed
But yeah I'm stuck at the HTC boot up screen and I used to be stuck at a bootloop of CM10 before I flashed boot.img
I hope you guys know a solution for this. Thanks in advance.

[Q] Finally took the plunge and rooted it, but can't do anything else?

Finally rooted the phone today, but when I try to go into an alternate recovery, or install a ROM (which I've never done before) the phone reboots (like it should I'm assuming) begins to load what I told it to do, and then I get an image of my phone with a red question mark above it, and my phone just reboots again.
What's causing this?

How are you flashing the recovery. The description you are describing is the stock recovery to flash a new recovery do it in fastboot (fastboot flash recovery name of recovery here)
Get the all in one tool from the dev section and it will do it for you.
All you need to do is choose which one you want CDMA or gsm, twrp or cwm (i prefer twrp for the one v)

'Ok the All in one tool worked. I flashed TWRP, wiped my caches and installed AOKP JB 4.1.2, i've got the "Initiating swagger" screen, how long should this take?It's been about 10 minutes...
So as far as i can tell, the rom install failed because i didnt complete the wipe (because the wipe through TWRP failed...) what causes this?
It will say it failed because the sd-ext didn't wipe (THAT'S A GOOD THING) the /sd-ext is your SD card lol. So did you get into the actual ROM for aokp? So when you clicked swaggerfy it froze? Hmm I'd try a different ROM or different kernel what kernel are u using. I reccomend Jan 3rd super slick (anything newer breaks the camera).
Edit: i noticed you said caches? Do did you click factory reset? I usually do factory and dalvik but i think factory does it all.

I hope I get a fairly quick response to this Followed some advide in that thread, flashed a kernel (I thought) using the All In One Tool, ever since, I've been stuck in a bootloop. Obviously I have access to my bootloader and TWRP (thankfully). My recovery backup returns the same results though.
Im new to this so I'll try toprovide all the info I can.
Followed the TUT on how to Unlock Bootloader and Root 2 days ago.
Yesterday, using the All In One tool, flashed TWRP onto phone.
Was unable to Flash AOKP JellyBean 4.1.2 so I asked for help again (ROM was flashed, but stuck on Initiating Swagger Boot)
Tried using All-In-One to flash (what I thought was) a kernel, since then, my phone just boots continuously or not at all (depending on if I wipe or whatnot)
While at work, I was able to Flash the AOKP rom and Boot into it, but after about 1 minute of use, it reboots.
This is where I'm at now.
My bootloader says
***UNLOCKED***

I'm using the latest version (2.3.3.) of TWRP
Is there anyway I can find, and delete, the boot.img I flashed with All-In-One, that caused this bootloop?
Found out why: radio is the new version aka .0928
HTC provided a new radio release and it screwed up being able to flash new JB roms. The fixable solution is to find the virgin mobile ruu exe and do that long process to get the old radio: .0521_2(?) back. I'll link you to the ruu thread in a sec let me find it first

Do NOT charge it over night. It damages the battery, and this is experience talking to you. Leave your phone charging for 3 hours, and that's sufficient.

Yes it is supported and highly customisable and great for one v.
your wrong! it isnt officially support by CM, but that doesnt matter at all. its running great for the One V and i recommend it alot.
I meant its dev support is great.not official support.

CWM will load a ZIP from the memory card, but the kernel isn't a zip - it's an img file. Do I replace the boot.img in the zip for CM10 that I am using, replacing the existing boot.img file in there, and then move that (modified) zip to the memory card?
Oli.
No u need to use fastboot. Remember how you rooted the phone? Same thing. Put the file.img in your fastboot folder on pc, on the phone, hold power for 10 seconds, it will turn off. Then hold vol down and power, after some seconds release power but keep holding vol down. It will get to hboot. Connect to pc with cable and on the phone click fastboot, it should say fastboot usb. On the pc, open cmd, locate your fastboot folder and type fastboot flash boot nameofkernel.img, wait for it to finish and reboot the phone. It will take some minutes but then it will boot normally
Thanks, I'm just trying that and it's rebooting as I type. (Hope it's not in another boot loop!)
Out of curiosity, why can't you simply swap the *.img files within the ROM zip? (I tried this and it doesn't work.)
Oli.
OR
Y can try the all in one Toolkit where u can flash Kernel in one go!
EASY AS [email protected]! :fingers-crossed:
Thanks. I came across the all-in-one toolkit after I had unlocked the bootloader and rooted the 'phone, so assumed I had no use for it from that stage on. Perhaps I need to have another look at it.
How long should the 'phone remain at the boot screen when booting CyanogenMod for the first time? It's still there (concentric cyan coloured rings, spinning in opposite directions) and has been there for a good few minutes now. How long before I assume it's in a bootloop and go back to a previous restore point?
Oli.
5 to 10 mins max i guess
If it stays there its good, just wait, if it reboots it's not good you need to downgrade your radio using ruu. Let's see :thumbup:

Just ctrl+s on your keyboard or klik file and there is a download command
I dont think the device is dead.. Its around 4 generations old. Yet is able to stand its ground and has the latest and greatest OS running on it.
I personally am planning to use and update the device till it can take no more :angel:
Can we flash the zip file in recovery to update or do we have to hook up to computer???

Guys, I spent a long time starting with deodexed 4.1.1 stock, added Xposed module and Blackout theme and swapped in all inverted current apps then reodexed but.....since I changed TWRP above 2.5.0.0 my backup is restoring incomplete. I am sticking with a backup of 4.1.1 because WifiTether works on WiMax but not after 4.1,1 so I want a nandroid that restores fully. Is it because TWRP is full SELinux now?

If you take the nandroid with the new version you'll probably have better luck. Only other thing I've seen, and granted this was on my s3, but with one of the versions I couldn't restore unless I kept the screen on during the restore. But I've also seen restore fail because of the first item too after upgrading recovery and then trying to restore a backup made with an older recovery
