I proudly present to you...... Mi-Roid
Mi-Roid is my port of the crespo MIUIAndroid weekly build with many additions, tweaks and mods added together for a great user experience. If there’s something you'd like added in feel free to post or pm me
For those of you wondering what Miui is.... that is a hard thing to describe but in a genreality it is a complete rebuild of android based on AOSP from the ground up. It has a build in theme manager that makes Cyanogen's look like childs play, you can change almost any little thing instead of applying an entire theme or you can apply an entire theme. It has build in virus scanning, autostart app control, flashlight app and all the goodies of cyanogen or other AOSP roms but in a whole new fashion. It is sort of IPhoneish but still feels like android not some apple product. If you dislike the launcher feel free to download any of your standard favourite launchers and use them, it'll free up some memory too.
Check out this video showing what Miui is
A few of my favorite features are listed below:
**While on the lockscreen if you press and hold home the flashlight will turn on for 30sec
**While on the homescren if you long press home the memory manager comes up to clear/free up memory
I plan on updating by Sunday night or Monday morning following the friday release of each weeks build. This will give me a few days to make sure the basics are working and to try and add features as i work a lot during the week and weekend gotta survive this cruel world somehow
If you have issues or questions please post them up here as someone may be able to help you on the forum before i check my PM's or get online to read/post.
Please Read the rest of this post and the ones below it for all info regarding issues and install before asking a question, i know it's pointless to ask this but maybe it'll save me one headache and at least one noob a thrasing from the senior members.

Previous Builds - will be posted soon
Install and Setup Directions Below in 2nd Post
Common Issues, Solutions and FAQ in 3rd Post
I advise doing a complete wipe for each build and not "dirty" flashing each weeks new build as this could cause issues.
If you are already running Miui you can also use the included backup tool to backup your apps and data, beware that this app does not backup paid for apps, so for example it will backup Titanium Backup but not the Pro Key so you'll have to download some apps via the market again
**Install Instructions***
1) Use Titanium Backup to backup your apps and data
2) Download the latest Mi-Roid version and place at the "Root" of your SD Card
3) Boot into Clockwork or whatever recovery you use and make a backup
4) Do a complete wipe, this would be your dalvik cache, cache, data, system, & boot.
5) Select the Install zip from SD option
6) Select the latest Mi-Roid version you just downloaded
6a) ***Optional*** Install Kernel Of Choice
7) Once install is completed reboot the system and let it boot up
8) After the system has booted up you can reboot into Clockwork and restore your data
***** BEWARE THERE IS A 30 SECOND TO 1 MINUTE LONG BLACK SCREEN BEFORE THE MIUI.US BOOT IMAGE COMES ON. THIS IS NORMAL, JUST WAIT A MINUTE AND YOU'RE BOOT UP WILL START****
***Things to do Upon 1st boot***
-Open MiuiStats from the pulldown and save the preferance to enable reporting, this lets Miui know we're using their ROM and to keep making it for us
-Open the Download Manager and go into the Settings and set the warning limit to 50mb and then turn off the Data download prompt to stop the market not letting you download huge apps. it will only give you a warning to use wifi on files over 50MB, but if uncheck the download on wifi only button and click proceed it'll download even those.
-Open the Play Store and sign into your Google Account
-While everything is Syncing open up Settings and select your google account. Select the option "Location &Settings" and turn it on. This will allow Google Maps and all other Google Services to use GPS for location locks, if you don't do this then GPS will work for all other apps but Google ones
-Open the Permission Manager, this is Superuser for Miui, and click on Manager root apps and turn it on or else your apps won't get superuser permissions. there is a series of 4 or 5 questions it asks before you click accept to root access on apps, so beware.
-Download the following apps
- Voodoo Sound
- Script Manager - this is for supercharging
-Open the Camera as the 1st start up takes a few seconds to a minute to initialize and sometimes it will fc and you'll need to open it again and wait
-Reboot into Clockwork, fix permissions, and Enjoy MI-Roid
****Optional**** Open Script Manager and supercharge your phone - see the FAQ for some important info on supercharging do's and don'ts
-Reboot and Enjoy MI-Roid
I'll post more as i think about it and get to the FAQS section below later tonight and i have screen shots too, just very tired from porting the toolbox and work this weekend
*****FAQS******
Q) What Kernel Is Included with this Rom?
A) Matrix CFS v24
Q) Do I need to flash gapps over this?
A) Nope, the google account framework is included as well as the latest PlayStore.apk, just download whatever apps you want from the Play Store. However here is a link the latest GAPPS working on Miui
Q) When I Send A Text Over 160 characters the reciepient gets a garbled message
A) This won't happen anymore because i modified the app to convert a sms to an MMS as soon as you hit the 160 character limit
Q) How Do I Supercharge My Phone
A) Go here to and download the latest version from zeppelinrox's thread, be sure to thank him too. Once you have downloaded the latest v6 script place it at the "Root" of your SD card. Open up script manager, be sure to give it root access. Select the v6 supercharger scipt and mark the little su icon to run it as su. Click on run, and follow the on screen instructions.
*****This is very important, when setting up your drivers options, do not, i repeat DO NOT select to apply the "Miscellaneous Tweaks & 3G Enhancements", a better version of these are in my init.d scripts!!!!! You also don't need to apply the wheel alignment either as that is another script already provided****
Q) I see lots of apps running when i first start my phone and don't want some of them running
A) Go into the Security Center folder and open the App Manager app, you can use it to select what apps and their services start and run in the background at boot
Q) The stock lockscreen is laggy
A) Yes it is, this is widely known in the Miui community, but it has a plethora of options built into it. If you want a faster one download any v4 theme and go into the theme manager under the mix section and apply it. The same goes for just about any thing or apperance you don't like about stock Miui, you can apply whole themes or just select parts
Nice work. gonna have to try this

Do you need Miui gapps from the site or any gapps will do?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
you don't need gapps, the google framework for google accounts and playstore are included, any other gapps can be downloaded from the market. do not flash gapps from CM or other AOSP roms as you'll get a few apps that shouldn't be there
if for some reason someone needs a certain gapp let me know, but this is the NS4G a CDMA phone only available in the US so we shouldn't have any restrictions on apps
Great work. Thanks for the port.. I've been waiting to try out a JB build of MIUI. You just made my weekend.

No problem, the JB version of Miui is quite nice. if you are going to flash a custom kernel i had the least amount of issues with Mathkids Matrix v23, it has voodoo sound and blinking BLN built in. I just updated my FAQ post but i have had severe issues with several of the other kernels in terms of bluetooth and battery drain so beware
Wow.. finally someone port jb miui for nexus s 4G, thank you

Awesome... I love MIUI...
Can anyone post some screenshots?
Not bad! Going to give a run through.. Seems fine so far.
Screenshots attached as requested. This is right after first boot.
This looks AWESOME! I went back to stock jellybean, but I'm going to root and install this later! How does battery life seem so far? Yeah, yeah, I know, give it a couple of days for the kernel to settle, but still... xD
Can anyone trying this confirm if 4g works?

haven't used miui in awhile does it still show high usage when u kill apps going to try when i get home wat kernel is everybody using thanks
sick. thanks for the confirmation.. on rasbean now but may have to give this a go....i miss miui and the ics version was crap, but the gb version didnt have 4g.
It's a little "heavy" feeling but MIUI isn't exactly a lightweight ROM so I expected that.. I had tried the ICS version and it was unbearable slow.. So far this is pretty damn good all things considering (feature filled custom JB ROM on 2 year old phone)
Nice ROM at lease jellybean miui is fast & smooth when compared to miui ICS which was way to laggy but miui is not my cup of tea I'm rocking Rasbean

Hi everybody,
I made a very light & clean modded GApps package for Android 4.2.x, for people who don't like some google crap or with low /system space.
I used many GApps packages I found on XDA to make this one that fits perfectly for me and works with fishears Rom I use.
49MB LaboDJ Normal GApps
22MB LaboDJ Slim GApps
Vs. 123Mb original One
Which base I used?
It contains 20130301 Base mixed to the latest apps I found
Mods:
- Google Play Store 3.10.14 (mods: noupdate norestrictions nosig-aligned, multi dpi, no more ugly smiley icon)
- Google Maps v6.14.1 (mods: full accelerated version, Samsung TTS voice navigation support + world navigation)
- YouTube v4.3.9 (Black Theme, HD Playback, Screen-off Playback)
Removed from GApps:
- PicoTTS
- Face Unlock (+ lib libfilterpack_facedetect.so)
- News & Weather
- Google Talk (+ libs libgtalk_jni.so, libgtalk_stabilize.so)
- Google TalkBack
- Google Sound Search
- Quick Search Box
- Voice Search (+ usr folder)
- TTS Folder (use Google TTS instead)
- Photoshphere (doesn't work with i9000)
Reworked Scripts:
- Removed install-optional.sh
- Added remove-folders.sh (it removes some folder from your system... read below)
- Reworked updater-script to make it work (it also remove many apk from your system... read below)
- Reworked 70-gapps.sh adapting it to the changes
The Package will also remove some apps & folders from your system automatically:
- /system/media/video (sample videos?)
- /system/tts (Use google tts instead, trust me it's better)
- Apollo (use Google play music from market instead)
- Basic Dreams
- Calendar (google calendar is better, already in Gapps)
- CMFileManager (I prefer root explorer from market)
- CMFileManagerThemes
- CMUpdater (If are u using CM ROMs I think it's better CyanDelta Updater from Market)
- DSPManager (I think Voodoo sound is better, from market)
- Exchange2 (Never used it)
- Galaxy 4 (Live wallpaper)
- HoloSpiralWallpaper (Live wallpaper)
- HTMLViewer (Never used it)
- LiveWallpapers (I don't use them)
- LiveWallpapersPicker (See above)
- MagicSmokeWallpapers (Junk)
- NoiseField (Junk)
- PhaseBeam (Junk)
- PhotoTable
- PicoTts
- QuickSearchBox (Trebuchet has already its own bar)
- VideoEditor.apk (Slow & useless)
- /system/lib/libvideoeditorplayer.so
- /system/lib/libvideoeditor_core.so
- /system/lib/libvideoeditor_jni.so
- /system/lib/libvideoeditor_osal.so
- /system/lib/libvideoeditor_videofilters.so
- /system/usr/srec
- /system/vendor/pittpatt
...
SuperSLIM version changes from Normal version:
- 21.7MB
- Updated Scripts to make them work
- Removed apps & replacements:
CalendarGoogle -> Default Calendar from your ROM instead
Gmail2 -> Classic Email from you ROM instead or Gmail .zip attached
GoogleNow -> Download from market if you need it
GoogleTTS -> If you need it there is a .zip attached
Maps -> Download from market or flash modded .zip attached if you need it.
StreetView -> Download from market if you need it.
YouTube -> Download from market or flash modded .zip attached if you need it.
- I also made modular packages named with ss_, if you use SuperSlim Version use ss_ packages otherwise something will go wrong (you can use normal GoogleTalk package).
If you use Normal vesion DON'T use ss_ packages!
If you use SuperSlim Version please first reflash your ROM .zip
If you need things such:
live wallpapers, video editor, themes, google news & weather, talk, voice search... I'll make sigle packages to add them, making GApps Modular
FIRST TIME INSTRUCTIONS:
- update your rom if you need to
- install this package
UPGRADING ROM AND WANT TO LEAVE MY GAPPS (and addon) UNTOUCHED?
- update your rom
- install Remove_Junk.zip
IF YOU NEED APPS I REMOVED
- I attached some of them at the end of the post
- flash them in recovery
- if you need to remove .zip you added manually just flash Remove_Added.zip
EG: you flash my Gapps, you flash Google_Talk.zip, you want to remove Gtalk? Just Flash Remove_Added.zip, it will remove only my "modular" package you added
IF YOU WANT TO GO BACK TO NORMAL GAPPS
- Update your ROM (or install the same zip you have)
- install classic GApps
- clear cache & Dalvik cache
Some Apps are modded so if you update them you'll lose mods
EG: Don't update Google Maps if you don't want to lose the mods.
:good:New MODULAR Installer OUT! It contains all default apps!
It installs GApps core files automatically, then you can choose which apps to ADD and which to REMOVE.
VERY EASY!
Modular GApps Thread HERE:good:
I don't take any responsibility for improper use, or for damage, I'm currently using them on Galaxy S i9000 powered by Fishears ROM.
I tested them on CM10.1 and work well.
It should works on every device with android 4.2.x
Anyway Use @ your own risk.
Downloads:
V2.0 HERE
V2.0 SuperSlim HERE
V2.1 HERE

Yes, it should work, anyway there are some problems:
If you flash these you'll lose DSPManager (audio driver from cyanogenmod team)
I replaced it with Voodoo sound (that works good with i9000)
If you don't use dspmanager so you shouldn't have any problem.
If you are on stock rom and you haven't a .zip containing your actual rom it wold be boring replace all system apps to revert back to "normal" state.
(Maybe a simply nandroid backup of /system folder only should do the trick, I'm pretty sure)
Nothing else.
Try and let me know!

I agree with nearly all of your decisions.
Not removing E-Mail and theme chooser would be nice.
Think i can modify the script myself, will have a look.
But i think it's easier to provide addon packages for people wanting stuff like gtalk...

Yep, I agree with you, but I currently don't know how to make a .zip for only an app.
The only problem is that I have to insert a line in system/addon.d/70-gapps.sh with the path of apk and libs.
This is the file that backup and restore your gapps when you upgrade a rom.
If you can help me this way, making modular zip, we can call these first modular gapps.
EDIT: Idea!
I don't know if I add all possible GApps in 70-gapps.sh it would return error when upgrading rom or not... If not I'll make a new .zip with full 70-gapps, and many little .zip for single apps.

I think these GApps are very useful. Especially with an old smartphone like Galaxy S.
Many apks I removed eat a lot of resources/space/batteries.
And many users haven't time/knowledge to make this mods.
Think before you write, if I did this is not for the glory but to help so many people who simply have my own needs
Maybe wrong section, yes... but keep calm, I didn't killed anyone

I agree - I'd like the theme chooser back. Is there any easy way like installing via playstore? But this is really great! I love it to 99%.
Notice: By flashing these GApps, you hereby revoke your right to complain in the Paranoid Android thread about bugs!
What I mean by this is: Don't go bothering Moles or any of the PA team about some sort of app/rom functionality being broken because you flashed this GApps package which deleted an app that you needed or caused ROM to crash.
This package goes against PA philosophy of remaining Stock google. Read This WHOLE POST FIRST!!
Warning: This package deletes apps that might be important to certain users! For example: maps, exchange services, live wall papers, etc. Read the list below for more details.
FAQ in second post
Section 1.
Ok, so the purpose of this post is to share a GApps that I put together for myself. Please READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE even considering flashing this.
What this GApps package does:
1. It flashes the bare minimum (what I consider bare minimum) of system apps to keep the ROM functioning as I like it.
2. The update script is modified to delete other apps that are included in the PA ROM package that I do not use. (notice I said "I", as in myself)
Do not Flash if you meet any of these descriptions:
1. You do not want a lean rom
2. You don't agree with leaning out roms
3. This offends you somehow
4. You are unsure about what you are doing
5. If you have never opened a zip package and looked at its contents or read an updater_script
Section 2.
These are the list of apps are NOT INCLUDED in this package that you would normally get from PA FULL GApps at goo.im:
Books.apk <--- google books
Currents.apk
GenieWidget.apk <--- Google weather widget
GoogleEars.apk <---- identifies songs by listening to them. I use soundhound, so I don't use google ears.
GoogleEarth.apk
Magazines.apk <---- Google magazines
PlusOne.apk <--- Google+ social network
Thinkfree.apk <-- stock office app
Videos.apk ,<--- google movies
ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk
Maps.apk <--- you can download from market or just restore with titanium. OR insert it into the lean gapps package yourself
Street.apk
Like I said above, this GApps package goes a step further and deletes certain apps from the /system/app/.
Here is a section of the script that deletes apps so you can and MUST REVIEW BEFORE flashing:
delete("/system/app/HoloSpiralWallpaper.apk","/system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk");
delete("/system/app/MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk","/system/app/OpenWnn.apk");
delete("/system/app/ParanoidWallpapers.apk","/system/app/PhaseBeam.apk","/system/app/VisualizationWallpapers.apk");
delete("/system/app/Thinkfree.apk","/system/app/Galaxy4.apk","/system/app/PinyinIME.apk","/system/app/Exchange2.apk");
delete("/system/app/Books.apk","/system/app/Currents.apk","/system/app/Magazines.apk","/system/app/Videos.apk");
delete("/system/app/GenieWidget.apk","/system/app/GoogleEarth.apk","/system/app/GoogleEars.apk");
If there is an app missing that you must have, then you can fix it. Pull the app from the ROM package or FULL PA GApps package and insert it into the Lean GApps package in system/app/. (I shouldn't have to explain how to do this if you're planning on flashing this GApps, but whatever.) Or if the script deletes an app that you don't want deleted, then just erase that part from the script.
If you don't know how to do this, then Google it or find one of many helpful tutorials here on the wonderful XDA forums!
Section3 .
Please refrain from asking the same questions over and over. Read this whole post!
Read the entire updater_script! It's a good practice to get into for flashing any zip.
I am NOT taking requests. If you want something added or taken away, then do the work yourself please. It takes only 5 minutes. I will try to fix any bugs and update whenever I get the time.

Links:
Lean-PA-GApps: Lean-PA-Gapps.zip - 119.57 MB Updated 2013-03-08 MD5: 2837b04e29ad769759ec29a94801f711
Coming soon: Power user Lean GApps. (secure settings, titanium, tasker, greenify, etc.) <-- all lite versions of the apps (support devs by purchasing pro keys)
FAQ:
1. Why have you removed Maps, wallpapers, (insert app here) ?
Because as I explained in the first post, I do not use those apps. I do however use Google maps, but I just restore it from my titanium backup when I need it and then uninstall. I hate how maps runs in the background. Just my preference. If you want maps, just download from the market or put the apk in the zip.
2. Can you please add/delete an app to the package?
No. I already posted in the first post that I would not. If the package doesn't suit you, then customize it yourself
3. Does this package break anything?
As far as I can tell from my own testing, it does not break anything that I use. Keep in mind, there is no Exchange service app, so if you need that for work or whatever, then restore from your titanium backup or add it to the zip.
4. Will this Gapps package work for another ROM besides Paranoid Android?
It should, I don't see why it wouldn't. Unless your ROM requires one of the apps in a typical full GApps package. If in doubt, do your own research. Don't blame me if it messes something up.
reserved 2.
Nice and lean man. I've been meaning to do something like this for myself but the PC is down and its not so fun unzipping and rezipping from Root explorer.

I never use the apps I delete. Freezing is just a bandaid fix to me. Of the apps I do use occasionally, like maps, I converted to a user app and have greenify hibernate it.

Hi all.
before anything :
- this tool is for especialy for dualbooters because i havent tested in 1rst rom. but updater-script manage kernel flashed. prepare odin in case of bad flash, you're advised.
- always make nandroid before use and flash with my tool.
I saw that ppl have many trouble to install 4.4.2 kitkat roms on their device.
it seems that we have manu such "error status 7" , and these were about setting persmissions during flash.
so i decide to make an aroma to avoid this error.
if you flash an original 4.4.2 Kitkat rom and have the error, no need to flash another compatible recovery kernel to re-try, just use my aroma flasher with the steps i descride below. In the aroma advanced MENU, you will choose set_perm commands compatible flash instead of set_metadata commands persmission to see if flask process will work in fine
Sure, at end of process, a kernel will be flashed, dorimanx branch 8 i have put in pach you went to donwload, or another you have put instead like i describe in extra step 6 below too.
so, AROMA structure details is like this :
pach/AROMA
---------backupEFS <------- useful script, no need to touch.
---------KERNEL <------- place here your boot.img file. (original rom or other)
---------maliv2
-------------system/lib/egl/ <-------- maliv2 .so libs contents, no need to touch.
pach/data/app <--------- you can put som apks here, moved from /system/app/ (i often move in latinIME.apk from /system/app/ and then i free 40Mo on /system/ partition, its good for GAPPS)
pach/META-INF/....../ <--------- no need to touch.
the available download pach i use for some months now , is here :
UniversalAROMAinstallerFOR-4.4.2-ROMs-DefinitivePach.rar - 8.53 MB
how to use it
1 - download any kitkat 4.4.2 ROM your want to install I9100.
2 - try it normaly, and see if you have error on flash.
3 - when you got it, on PC, make a safe copy ot it somewhere, and open it with WINRAR. Then delete META-INF and other boot.img file. just let system folder in ZIP.
4 - uncompree my AROMA somewhere.
5 - drag and drop the 3 "bolded" folders (in aroma structured details) in ZIP rom you still have opened.
extra step 6 : in AROMA/KERNEL/ folder, you will find dorimanx branch 8 version (new @StanTRC recovery inside) i have put. You can replace it with any boot.img you want , even those from original rom zip you have safely somewhere on your PC. just extract boot.img from it and replace with in you new aroma installer rom zip you went to manage in steps 3, 4 and 5 .
aroma choice you will have :
"Compatibility of your Recovery Kernel",
"Your Kernel is compatible for set_metadata commands"
"Your Kernel ONLY understand set_perm commands"
"choose your based KK similar rom",
"AOSB BEANSTALK C-ROM EHNDROIX"
"CARBON"
"CM11 JELLYBAM"
"SABER PAC"
"PA"
"Resurrection Remix"
"SLIM SPIRIT"
"NEATROM AICP"
"SOKP"
"Backup EFS",
"Backup your EFS folder before flash"
"Skip"
"Kernel to flash at end of process",
"DorimanX 8 and MaliV2"<---------- option that serve to flash MALIV2 for dorimanX branch 8 users, dualbooters.
"any other kernel"
EXTRA TOOL : .db qulite bases "wiper" , it delete some .db files in some /data/data/com.android........../databases/ folders, usefull when we flash from <> based 4.4.2 roms, CM11 , RR , PAC , SLIM, PA....sometimes worked fines for me.
"Delete some SQlite .db files in ROM",
"YES ","Delete some SQlite .db from you installed rom to avoid com.android.phone FC or other FCs"
"NO thanks we can FLASH the ROM"
again, this is just for test and fun , dualbooters will like more that "normal" users. no risk to flash kernel in 2nd rom, but remember need maliv2 during AROMA....and i always afraid someone that try my work on 1rst rom will brick its device.....so i advertise everyone that before upload my "daily" works, i'm not always flashing them on my 1rst rom.
thanks.

i have made one pach with onle play store and google services , with others goodies, but i can re-script it with gapps. give me a way to follow what you think ppl need the most .
i mean this one, but i'm on some research about better way to use it, tomorrow i will post good version.
I9100-Aroma-addonsFor-KitKat-4.4.2-ROMS.zip - 180.81 MB
this one is that one i use in video review, you see i NEVER have trouble with space /system/ partition because initial ZIP ROM is modify with some apk in /data/app/ during flash, so i can add more goodies in /system/app/ using this aroma with play store, google sphere and touchwizz i use....see tuto how to move apks from /system/app/ to data/app/ before flash the rom and then gain space on /system/ to flash more files without disturbing /data/app/ we never want to full wipe to.
AND REMEBER external .sh script dont work well with dorimanx new recovery, i mean move choice in aroma so its better to have space in system before use and not use these options during aroma (i mean options to gain space)
thanks.

Hello Guys, I'm anshubham and this is my first post for our Huawei Honor Holly.
I'm not an expert developer and dont know everything about Android Development. This is just an attempt to help out people who are looking for MIUI ROM for HOLLY.
This is the MIUI 6 (5.4.3) Rom For our Huawei Honor Holly U19/3c Lite.
See the screenshots in the attachment. :good:
I have added 50+ build.prop tweaks for better RAM Management and Battery Efficiency.
The ROM is divided into 5 parts so merge them all using 7zip or winrar or whatever you use, after merging you'll get a zip file of 465 MB which you can flash either via CWM or TWRP, its tested on both ( I recommend CWM though)
How to merge the ROM is also given below.
The ROM works on the STOCK Kernel, no need of any custom kernel
Battery Backup is same as the STOCK Rom
You must do a CLEAN INSTALL, follow exact instructions.
How to Flash the ROM :
1. Download the Rom and merge it to get one fashable zip file.
Mod edit: Links removed
2. Boot into recovery and make a full wipe i.e :
format system
format data
format cache
format dalvik cache
format battery stats (cwm only)
3. Flash the ROM and the Fix via CWM or TWRP (do not install Gapps yet). Reboot the phone, first boot may take upto 2-3 minutes.
4. After the first boot, once you set up the device and get to its homescreen, reboot to recovery again and flash this for gaining perfect root access.
Root - Mod edit: Link removed
You can change the Superuser app to your favorite app later using TB or any similar app.
5. Now flash any 4.4 Gapps (lite or full, your choice). I use YourzGappsXS which are now discontinued, they work nice for me. Although any 4.4 Gapps will work.
Lite Gapps Link - Mod edit: Link removed (which i use)
6. Reboot to system and you are ready to rock!
HOW TO MERGE THE ROM: (Install 7Zip)
1. Download all the Parts of the ROM and put them into one folder.
2. Now Right Click on Part 1 only i.e, "Miuiv6_anshubham.7z.001" and select 7Zip then Click on "Extract Here".
3. Do not extract other parts, we only need to extract Part 1 and it will automatically extract the other parts. This is why we need to put all the parts in the same folder.
4. After extraction is finished, you'll get one single ROM file (flashable zip file), now you can delete those 5 parts that you downloaded because they are useless now.
5. Now Flash the ROM which has been extracted. Simple!

NOTES :
Note - Do not Flash all the three files at once (ROM, Perfect Root and Gapps). First flash the ROM then reboot to system and then flash the other two Zip files (perfect root and gapps).
Note - You may get "com.android.systemui has stopped working" message whenever you boot up the ROM, just click OK and it will go away and ignore it, it will not cause any problems anywhere.
Note - It is advisable that you let the ROM settle for around 10 -15 minutes after flashing.
Note - Install busybox after flashing the ROM.
Note - MIUI by default uses the internal storage to save app/media data for many/most apps i.e Camera pictures, screenhots, photos you download from whatsapp, etc, and i cannot change it. If you know how to change it, please do tell me.
Please leave your precious feedback.

First of all i cannot upload it on any other site. I've had enough problems with that.
Use chrome and internet download manager to download the rom.
There is no phishing attempt.
That is the best site for developers to upload their stuffs where i uploaded the rom.
Just try and download and you're good to go.
CLICK ON THE BLUE DOWNLOAD BUTTON not the orange one.
As you are a newbie, go to this thread for how root, and flash recoveries (cwm or twrp).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2996617
After this, you'll easily understand how to flash and use the rom.
Just google about what is rooting and what is meant by flashing recoveries.
PS : A merging Tutorial has been added in the first post.
Maybe someone with fast internet repacks the rom and reuploads it..
What's the problem in downloading the parts, i think for people with slow internet it's more convenient.
Merging Tutorial Added.
For those who dont know how to merge the rom, a Tutorial has been added in the first post.

you need to flash the rom again do not install gapps along with the rom. Install them after first boot.
Please follow the instructions and the notes properly.

Yes it is , more the amt of apps, less will be the ram available.
But still stock RAM management is always best.
Thanks!
