    Paste this folder on SdCard>clockworkmod>backup>[{Paste that folder here}]

    ReplyDelete
  61. I did the restore but and it says 'MD5 mismatch!'.. wth??

    ReplyDelete
  62. OKAY, GUYS, I FIGURED IT OUT!

    So! I made a backup from my current ROM, to discover the right directory of the backup files.

    1. put that zip file to your SD card.
    2. unzip it.
    3. From (UNZIppED FOLDER)clockwork mod/backup/ copy the 2012-2-16.10.32.05 folder to sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/ HERE.
    4.Reboot to recovery
    5. restore.

    U made it!

    unfortunately After all I faced the "no signal" problem... I tried to make a master reset, but it still unsolved...

    Ifa nyone have some solution for this issue, please tell share it with us!

    Thanx

    ReplyDelete
  63. the extracted backup flder contains the followed files:
    android_secure.vfat.tar
    boot. img
    cache.yaffs2.img
    dada.yaffs2.img
    nandroid.md5
    recovery.img
    sd-ext.ext3.tar
    system.yaffs2.img

    These files are needed to succesfully restore a ROM... They are on that folder...
    U must lace it like this :
    sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-2-16.10.32.05/ Files written below...

    Note... I restored this ROM to phantom's ROM... and i have no signal... I'm not sure, but i think, that if I flash a CM7 nb0. and i restore this ROM this problem will be solved... BUT IT'S JUST MY opinion!!!

    ReplyDelete
  64. I rename every file as xxx.img and it's working on clockworkmod 5.0.0.6 recovery 2.5.1.3

    ReplyDelete
  65. those who have problem restoring::

    extract the backup file here:
    1.)sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2012-2-16.10.32.05

    2.) download this file its a recovery.img of 5.0.2.6 and extract to the root of sd card

    >>>> http://www.mediafire.com/?qj763f940glkw4p

    3.)go to terminal

    4.) type the ff:

    su
    flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

    5.) and reboot to recovery

    6.)restore

    the recovery.img should be 5.0.2.6 so that it will restore the file... NOTE! dont rename those files or you'll get MD5 mismatch!! hope this help!!

    ReplyDelete
  72. I need to go back to CM7.0.2 which is very stable on my mi300.

    ReplyDelete
  73. SAME WITH ME
    The GUI is really interesting. BUT it not really stable, several time force close, also hanging and lagging.

    ReplyDelete
  74. lagging and freezing must be caused by overclocking.
    it is defaulted @ 320 - 800mhz
    try lowering it.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Zuckerburg:
    I had lowered the cpu after done flashing to 600mhz.

    Correction to my above post, I mean CM7.1_EAv7.2 is a very stable rom on my mi300, seriously no problem at all :)

    ReplyDelete
  76. I installed this rom its working fine

    ReplyDelete
  77. @103787589673840626649 i flash mygingerb stable before restoring this rom...

    for those who are experiencing FCs and hangs fix permissions... anyway its a really good rom..

    ReplyDelete
  78. i faced severe and frequent hangs on MI 300. I am reverting to my previous stable CM 7.1

    ReplyDelete
  79. and guys... wipe dalvik cache and wipe data before restoring for better results

    ReplyDelete
  80. Always got message 'Google Talk authentication failed'. any solutions???

    ReplyDelete
  81. takes forever to get charged...Draining...But AWESOME look....I wish it was stable...tried everything...but Only Phantom suits my XT502...
    Reverting back to it...

    ReplyDelete
  82. @Srgrox ...try to reset the battery stats...

    ReplyDelete
  83. here what i do to flash it on mi300

    -extract da file to sd root
    -flash my mi300 using sut with cm7.0.2 nbo
    -not entering rom after sut flash redirect to recovery
    -update recovery using zip
    -reboot recovery after update
    -choose restore and restore to this rom
    -after completed wipe dalvik cache and cache.
    -choose turn off on recovery n master reset using 3 button combo
    -wait till master reset done
    -charge fully n callibrate battery
    *additional* as .35 not really stable with oc, i change da kernel to .32.9 as i need oc.

    anyway, really nice rom, smooth n no lag exp
    as for 3d perf, not yet tested but as for video viewing, i would say 20% better than eav 7.2
    da real prob is battery, but, solved as i buy another battery.

    but i do throw away all non necessary apks from system.

    ReplyDelete

Because of the program compatible question, causes LINE as well as WhatsApp is unable on the mobile phone to install carries out the ~ screen to demonstrate " The application program has not installed " Is also is unable on Market to search for LINE, WhatsApp!! Will install LINE using the computer to prompt you This application program and your A688 Sony Ericsson Optimus Boston are not accommodating
