Hey guys ,Here is the miui rom for Lt28i .This rom is based on official Miui for LT26i . I modified it to work with Ion
it should work on lt 28h and lt28at ,but you maybe have to falsh you phone with lt28i FTF rom at first.by the way ,you will lost LTE,when you use the MIUI
Use it with Stock ICS kernel(you do not need to unlock the bootloader,just root the phone and instal CWM)
i have update the MIUI to 2.10.19. this time i build the rom with 6.1.E.1.20 from lt28h it works on both locked and unlocked bootloader.
1.flash the stock 6.1.E.2.29 or 6.1.E.1.20 (they maybe have the same kernel ) and instal CWM
2. Boot into CWM
3. Backup your current rom
4. Do a factory reset( if you update miui from the old version ,this is not necessary for you)
5. Install the rom
6. Reboot

i don't recommend install this version over 2.10.26, you'd better backup your data with the Backup app ,then wipe data and install the this build and restore your data. i just saw some guys want a previous version ,so i build it and add something new in it.
This is a offical recommend verison MIUI rom. i rebuit it ( it should be much better than the old one ) and added many new features in it(some of them are not made by me ,but i cannot remember where i got them, so great thanks to the guys who made them) .I won't make the MIUI 2.11.2 for LT28, this version has too many bugs and you can never use themes free.

just like the 2.10.19 rebuild ,i added many new features in 2.10.26 and built it base on 6.1.E.2.68. before install this rom you'd better flash the kernel for 6.1.E.2.68. there is no need for u to flash the baseband of 6.1.E.2.68,if u use the 6.1.E.2.29's baseband now ,they have the same one.

Here is the latest verison of MIUI base on 6.1.E.2.68, in this version you can feel the new features of miui,but maybe you couldn't use your themes which you downloaded before.Before install it ,you should backup your data with the Backup APP ,then do a factory reset in CWM,after installed ,you can restore your data. By the way, you may have theme app FC somethime.

Do you need bootloader unlocked?
I'm assuming so

Thanks for this I just got a lt28h and was looking into miui thanks for this now just need to unlock bootloader and be on my way
Well if you wanna go for it.... Lol

Once my wife comes home she has the phone at the moment. You kinda make it sound like there is a problem unlocking the bootloader. I searched and couldn't find any real issues with it seems biggest issue right now is with the lt28a. I assume the bootloader in these devices is "safer" to unlock than in the x10 I had before since this device is semi supported to be unlocked.
Didn't mean you. Yours should be completely fine haha.

Hope Dooms ramdisk is compatible with out rom! I can not see reason for using custom kernel since our device flying with stock kernel but allso since our phone is quadcore I thinking now about http://www.s21.com/sar.htm and don't trust any overvolting like some kernels have non oficially! I think that changing voltages is bad idea since increasing voltage to some chips maybe will increase S.A.R value which is not good for head or body! So think about that !

Thanks for the heads up, yeah the doom kernel for our z1 compact is stock, doom only adds CWM. I agree our phones are fast enough what would be the point of overclocking, underclocking or messing with voltages as battery life is great as well.
I'm more worried about privacy, I will be happy if some good developers contribute here in Privacy Guard implementation! I will start that probably tommorow and seccond day, allready have 70 percent implemented, rest is hard since libbinder will be a problem (probably I will need to use AOSP libbinder and use some changes from CM11 ) , hope we all done that soon. Progress will be on git soon.
You are right about failed install message in CMW! Zip downloaded from git can not be installed! I must make rom manyaly and give you new link for download, sorry!
Hello munjeni,

Only flash the downloaded zip via cwm?

No bugs, but only 4k video is not working, eerything other is working (background defocus, portrait retouch, timeshift video (no 120fps but its working ok with ~40-~60fps), china photo editor, shortcuts for 4k and timeshift booth in camera drawer + camera widget). Just to inform all, nothing is modified in stock camera so there will be no problems, only patched things is pathed Z2 camera things, so you will have definitelly no problems in cam since I not used copy paste from other ports!
Next step... laynch flash tool, chose latest kitkat ftf...

I tried flashing multiple Custom ROMs on my Xperia m c1904 (single sim), but each one of them had the same problem i.e the Sim wont be identified, the phone will show No SIM error. When i flashed back the stock ROM, the SIM worked perfectly. Please help me if anyone has any clue about whats going on. The three ROMs i tried flashing were MIUI v5 , cynogenmod 11 and the mokee OS ROM. I am a complete noob, please avoid throwing complex terms at me. Any help will be much appreciated.

Hey there,
I think I understood what you have told and I have few questions to ask,
First were you on stock 4.3 before flashing?
Second did u wipe cache,data,dalvik and format /system before flashing?
After u installed did u check the Sim subscription .if not go to settings and do it.
See I am no expert , just a beginner like you are.so hope this helps. Thanks

Yup, it is somewhat same, except the kernel doesn't have inbuilt recovery. You can do it without PC, provided You have a working TWRP. So instead of flashing the first carbon boot.img, just do the steps after step 7.
If i do this without PC my phone wouldnt have a inbuilt kernel recovery? And in reverse ?
This option is really important ? Steps 1-7 are for people who have blocked bootloader and they install software with cwm or twrp yea :3?
This CM 12 is final version not beta ?

If You had flashed the recovery to fotakernel (i.e. by process similar to this method) then You will retain Your recovery. The CM12 ROM kernel doesn't have inbuilt recovery.
Steps 1 to 7 are for people who don't have recovery.
All the steps require unlocked bootloader. You cannot install Kitkat or Lollipop ROM's on locked bootloader on Xperia S.
Current CM12 version is beta, there won't be a final version, as even CM is under development, Our device is not supported officially and new feature are always introduced.
Also, once You unlock bootloader, there is no need to unlock it again, even if You flash the stock firmware.
Thread starter asked for a stable rom. CM12 has a long way to go before being stable.

Waiting and manually check the thread.
Its because its an unoffial build of the repo. OTA checks if there is a new build of official maintained devices and since their build-database doenst know about nicki, it throws this message.
Thanks a lot.
Thanks a lot bhai @iddu.daragah, for your hard work and bringing up another great ROM for us. Using it since last 14 hours no issues for me i.e no FC, not a single auto reboot so no question of RR. Everything is working fine apart from no option is being shown on fn button in settings. Battery is significantly greater than other ROMs . Untill you fix the the button issue and release the build version I am going back to your Xenon HD ROM. Till then I will be waiting patiently.

I have a few more doubts :
1) earlier I used to have XPERIA X8 (2.1 stock) and installed 2.3 after rooting without unlocking it, then why I need a unlocked XPERIA M now?
2) So even if I root & unlock my XPERIA M can I try any kernel (made for my device) with any of the ROMs out there eg: CM or PA or Pacman?
OR do individual ROMs have their specific kernel only ?

Yup, u need to unlock your bootloader in order to use custom ROMS. You can use CM / PA / Pacman / FlexOS / anything that supported with ur device after u unlock bootloader
