i tried but it remained the same, i used this solution http://www.miui.it/forum/index.php?threads/guida-installazione-recovery-miui.2113/. But now after I finished the installation to 1.0 and i get the information that there is a new version. But when i try to install it it shows an error, install fail. how can i resolve this? All i wanted was to return to oficial rom and have ota upgrades i don´t mind keeping only english.
Any help please?
 
Great information. I'll follow up and report result later.

Many thanksss. My life saver :)

Updated on Friday 13 :D My phone is alive, with miui recovery and multilang latest firmware. Working perfectly. Thank you again.
where did you get the rom, did you use the ota?
 
Well, you can always reflash this stable version and start from the beginning (1.0) (IT will restored your IMEI too)

0. Disconnect USB mobile and turn off mobile.
1. Install Drivers (install.bat)
2. Open Flash tool (SP_FLASH_TOOL_src_v3.1306.0.150 Flash_tool.exe)
3. Click on Scatter loading and select MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt from ROM folder "HM2013023_images_JHBCNAH1.0_4.2"
4. Check the option DA DL ALL With Check SUM
5. Click on firmaware upgrade
6. Remove battery and connect USB to mobile. The process will begin.
7. If a green circle appears, then the process was success.

This instructions has been copied and translated from an Spanish-Forum. I don't know who was the first to create the package and the steps. (The Steps 0 (Zero) was added by me).

Can you try compass and still is here bug, when after rebooting the phone, options "Screen lock sound" and "Vibrate on touch" (All settings > Sound > System) are always TURNED ON , options "Vibrate in silent mode" and "Vibrate when ringing" (All settings > Sound > Vibrate) are always TURNED OFF ... :(

I checked every work , try after power off or restore factory.only one time was necessary recalibrate compass,but it work !
 
When you open phone not turn on vibrate every time ?
No don't vibrate i think

Not vibrate your strange problem is some data ghost this happen for bad wipe or buggy rom.something is a backup that when restored cause strange things....is convenient clean install apps from google play
 
Same problem here, at reboot I have to turn on Vibrate in silent mode" and "Vibrate when ringing
 
Same thing with my Hongmi W, haven't tried it in the Hongmi T. They both run on the latest multi build.

Hi, do you have the original stable 4 or multilanguage stable 4 ?
 
Multi stable build from this week

Has anyone with the Vibration issues tried a full clean wipe and no backup restore to see if the issue persists? if so what was the outcome please?

Thanks,

Mark
 
and as soon as you go to most current it fails from there or did you not upgrade yet?
I install original recent version stable4 but the same mistake goes on I install multı4 but agaın it goes on but when I uploaded 3.12.13. there is no problem
 
I tested it out with a full clean sweep yesterday, but it is still there.
I haven't tested it before, because i like the haptic feedback, but it should stay how you saved it.
I will try it later with the Hongmi T.
The Hongmi W, will go away today, to it's new owner.

Edit: Hongmi T does NOT have this problem with the latest release.

Hello everybody!

Might be a stupid questions but I can't seem to find an accurate answer within the thread.
I have the official build from Xiaomi site (stable 4.0 for WCDMA), but the new features like calendar, weather, security manager, theme manager etc. are not present.
Is the multilanguage weekly build for the WCDMA coming with those features? If yes, where can one find it on the "Multi 3.12.20" thread (the Hongmi links seem to be the official stable ones, just translated)?

Thank you!
