So!..
New owner here, greeting to all! My MI2S is on its way and I am trying to figure out what to do. I've read enough, so I'll try to recap and tell you the steps I intend to follow, please correct me if I am wrong.
-I need CWM recovery, so this is the first thing to install.
-Which rom? I need my phone rooted, so probably I will move to an experimental version, right? It seems that WIUI is really better than stock, so, since I need a rooted version, this one is the
WiUi v5 JB 3.8.23 EX, isn't it?
-Is there any real reason to install a custom kernel and if yes, why? If yes, which should I prefer? I've been reading about attempts to make a "tap to unlock" function like Nokia's and LG's, is there any kernel that has actually done it?
-Sound quality is quite important to me. Are there any special tweaks, apps or kernels that provide our phone with better sound quality?
-If I ever want to install anything via CWM recovery, do I always have to rename the
.zip file that I intend to install to
update.zip?
I really feel embarassed asking all those things that surely have been answered a thousand times, but it's the third day now that I read about all this staff and I feel lost. Thank you so much!
