with normal devices you can just wipe the whole system & then push files via adb , this solves the problem but i am a little scared with Xiaomi !! don't want it to go bust .

I don't want to enable the true dual boot option , instead i want to remove the dual boot feature to increase the internal storage space . can this be done ?
even i want to remove dual boot feature..
I think there is no such option as yet. Since I am not the developer of the recovery I cant comment any more :( . I will update this thread as soon as a new release is up!:good:

Thanks for this recovery. I do have a question regarding TDB. With the stock recovery I always had the original chinese rom on system 1. If I installed the Xiaomi.eu multilang weekly it always went into system 2. Now that I have flashed CWM, I see that both system 1 and 2 have the multilang version. Is it safe to flash CM11 over one of these?

And I believe switching systems is done via CWM: choose which system to manage and then reboot system?

Edit: My device becomes unbootable after backing up either system 1 or 2. Have to reset using MiFlash, nothing else works. Anyone else has this issue?

Hi. If you install an update using the stock recovery, it will update the system which you are not on. Suppose if u install an update while u are on system 1, the update happens on ur system 2. In cwm that is not the case. U can safely install cm11 on system 1. To do this :
1. Start cwm. Then select manage system 1.
2. Install zip from SD card and choose the cm11 zip. Then go to cwm advanced - select active system - choose system 1.
3. Go back to main menu & reboot.

Thanks, I never understood how the original recovery worked with regards to system 1 and 2. I didn't check the advanced windows and it makes alot more sense now.

White logo? Explain in detail
After made a back up in system 1 in cwm, I chose to reboot to system. But it refused to boot to system it stuck on white MI logo. I think it's bootlooping. Luckily I still managed get back to cwm to restore my backup. Not regular restore though, as it resulted error response something like my backed up is incomplete. So I'd to flashed stock 4.8.15 then advance data only restore. Phew.
