I have no idea if this even boots. I need testers. Also, dual sim is much harder to get working, so single sim will come first.

stuck on boot screen

Awesome. I hope you work on this soon.
As of now, it is stuck on boot screen. Not booting up.
Waiting for the stable version.

Thanks for the Feedback! I will work on this more during spring break next week. Maybe tonight I may have time. Is it the HTC boot screen or the MIUI boot screen? Does the computer detect it in that state? If adb connects can you send a logcat? Thanks again!

That's ok I will take a look at the kernel. Just restore to your latest backup and I will hopefully have a new build soon

Thank you for the feedback. I am currently working on a new build.

EDIT
New Build up! I tweaked the kernel and the updater-script. feedback would be appreciated

The kernel repacking is giving me trouble so this will likely not boot but a test would be appreciated. Thanks to all you guys for your support!

EDIT #2 ANOTHER new version up! Also, a bit of technical news. Alpha versions 1.0 and 1.1 are based on cyanogenmod alone. From 1.2 and up, I will likely use the existing miui v5 port as a base for the Rom. I did not make the MIUI v5 port, a developer called hasz did, but he is not on xda that I am aware of but I credited him in the description. Good luck! Alpha 1.2 has a better chance of booting I think..

You're welcome.
It is the MIUI boot screen and no, the device is not getting detected by my computer. I'll flash the latest alpha and post the feedback later.

New build (a1.4) up. I tried a new porting method, along with going back to Cyanogenmod as a base. Good luck flashing

yusuf.khan.00 · Mar 28, 2015 at 5:43 AM

No success.

Well with every success there is 1000 failures ? So not even the HTC boot screen? Or it just doesn't boot past the HTC boot screen?

LOL that, you're right.
anyway, it is not booting past the HTC boot screen. No MIUI boot animation. It is stuck there with a black screen. I am pretty sure it is bricking the device because i have to restart the phone using volume up+power button. The computer is unable to detect the device.
