CyanogenMod 11 Android 4 4 2 Kit Kat OS for HTC One Mini How to install it
Did you get HTC One Mini and want to upgrade it to KitKat 4.4 OS? If yes, then I have got an *extra* thing for you. I hope you know "CyanogenMod" ROMs. Most of you might know whats that, so I wont write a long paragraph on explaining what CyanogenMod is.
HTC One Mini users can now enjoy latest Android OS, Android 4.4 Kit Kat on their mini devices. Also, it is not 4.4 OS, it is based on latest CyanogenMod sources: 4.4.2 KK.
The ROM is built by recognized developer h8rift in XDA-Developers website, which is very much popular for development and Android tricks and tweaks. Also this ROM is compiled with 4.8 toolchain, which modifies RAMDisk by tweaking it and also it has modified load address.
The ROM is tested by users and is fully compatible with ClockWorkMod Recovery (touch recovery has not been tested yet) which is fully working on HTC One s-off and unlocked.
MXRootRom wants to remind there users that MXRootRom is not responsible for their bricked HTC One Mini while trying this guide. Firmware installation voids the warranty and therefore the users may try this guide on their will.
Pre-requisites:

MXRootRom wants to remind there users that MXRootRom is not responsible for their bricked HTC One Mini while trying this guide. Firmware installation voids the warranty and therefore the users may try this guide on their will.
Pre-requisites:
- The installationg guide of Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat CyanogenMod ROM is only meant for HTC One Mini users only, and not for HTC One or any other HTC or non-HTC device. If you are trying this ROM in your handset, then let me be clear that it wont boot in any device except HTC One Mini and MXRootRom holds no warranty about their devices.
- Make sure you have latest version of recovery. TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project) v2.6.3.0 and CWM (ClockWorkMod) v6.0.4.5 is fully compatible with this ROM, if you dont have these recoveries, then also it will work fine.
- Backup your device before trying anything mentioned in this guide! You can make a Nandroid backup in CWM Recovery by going to Backup and Restore and selecting Backup option. For TWRP Recovery, go to Nandroid backup, and select every partition to backup them and press X.
- Do make sure that the drivers are installed on your computer to connect HTC One Mini so that you can transfer files (ROM and other ZIPs).
- Ensure USB Debugging option is working. To reveal the option, go to Settings, follow to About phone and tap 7 times on build number. Now go back and you will see a new option Developer options. Enable it and enable USB Debugging too.
- Make sure you have more than 70% of battery to install Android 4.4 Kit Kat (CM 11) on your device.
- Also confirm that your device is unlocked (depends upon carriers) and rooted with the TWRP or CWM Recovery.

How To Upgrade Sony Xperia Sola to Android 4 4 2 Kit Kat by CM 11 ROM
Sony Xperia Sola was released back in 2012, but is still now popular because of its some specifications and price range. The device has minimum requirements for running Android 4.4.2 KitKat in a mobile phone. I thought of writing an easy tutuorial for you guys so you guys can upgrade your GingerBread device to latest Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat OS.
Xperia Sola has decent specifications like 5 Mega Pixels camera, 1 Ghz Dual Core Cortex-A9 processor, Mali 400 GPU, which makes it actually a gaming phone. Mali 400 is one of the best affordable graphic cards for android mobile phones and it is far better than Adreno 200 and Adreno 203. Also, it can record videos up to 720p HD with 30 FPS. The bad thing or cos I found in this device is the chipset, but its not too bad, just talking that if it was SnapDragon then it would be better.
Not talking about the specifications of this device, I will move to the ROM, that is CyanongeMod 11 ROM. We all know about cyanogenmod ROM these days that the ROM is highly customisable, stable, fast and a secure ROM. But what are the features that stock android doesnt provides us? These are FREE Anonymous data usage or incognito mode, DSP Manager, Focal Camera application, CyanogenMod Toolbox or in short, the customisable settings etc. There are many features and thats the reason that the ROM is the best in custom firmwares for android. After downloading and flashing the ROM in your Xperia Sola, you will get to know about this too. I hope you are a rooted user, because if you are not rooted then you cannot flash the ROM. Also I hope you reached here because you have ClockWorkMod Recovery or any other custom recovery? If NO then please search how to root Sony Xperia Sola and How To Install CWM Recovery in Sony Xperia Sola. After rooting your device, you can follow the steps which are mentioned here. Lets start our journey with the requirements!

Requirements and Downloads
- Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat CyanongeMod 11 ROM for Sony Xperia Sola: Click HERE. (Download CM11 Build only!)

Things which you need to see before you install CyanogenMod 11 Android 4.4.2 ROM in your Sony Xperia Sola
- Make sure you are a rooted user and have CWM installed in your handset.
- Dont install/flash this ROM on any other device because it may result in bricking up.
- Dont flash the ROM until you make a proper Nandroid backup with all partitions backed up.
- The ROM will take atleast 1 minute to boot up because the Firmware will build its file and all so dont panic and shut the device off.
- Dont follow anything which is not mentioned in this article.
How To Install Android 4.4.2 KitKat (CM11 ROM) in Sony Xperia Sola
- Download the ROM and Google Applications on your PC.
- Move it to SD Card of your Sony Xperia Sola.
- Shut down the device and reboot it to recovery
ADB SHELL

REBOOT RECOVERY - After rebooting it to the CWM or any other recovery, select Backup and restore and select Backup to make a full backup of your current ROM.
- Select Wipe data/factory reset from the main menu to wipe the user data.
- Select Advanced and select /format system option to format your System partition.

This boot will take more time than the usual backup because the CyanogneMod 11 or Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat ROM is building dalvik cache, data, and other required files to boot the system. It will not take more than 1-2 minutes. If it is stuck anywhere, then pull the battery of and reboot to recovery. Wipe the data again and then reboot.

How To Install CyanogenMod 11 ROM Android 4 4 2 In Motorola Moto G
CyanogenMod is the best custom ROM or firmware for Android currently. There are many other ROMs like CarbonROM, MiUi, Lewa OS etc. which are popular but CyanogenMod ROM is mother of these ROMs! There are many reasons for that like when the new version of Android releases, CyanogenMod releases their next Firmware or ROM version as soon as possible but in less than 1 week after the release. That makes people to download the ROM and not only this, the ROM provides many features that stock roms dont provide like DSP manager, Focal application, Theme support, better and faster notification bar, better and modified call application, fully cusomtizable, all blotwares, light launcher, VPN like application which allows you to surf internet anonymously.
I am now fed of writing the long features of this ROM so you can see some features of this ROM in my older post on Samsung Galaxy S for this ROM.
You can Google too about the features of this ROM and other details of this ROM and about CyanogenMod. Lets first of all see prerequisites and downloads and then finally the main guide of installing the ROM in your device

Moto X tipped for July 11 launch date
The Moto X Phone has been tipped for a July 11 launch date, according to one technology broadcaster.
Leo Laporte, an award-winning American tech broadcaster and author, has said he has been invited to a Motorola event on July 10 and 11.
Invited by a new Motorola employee called Guy Kawasaki, Laporte said what is being featured at the event is still being kept quiet, but will only be for selected tech journalists.
Rumours surrounding the long-awaited Moto X Phone from Motorola seem to be coming in thick and fast now, especially as the suggest launch day is now just under a week away.
With the Moto X the first significant launch since Google bought Motorola in 2011, many expect the smartphone to be rather special.
However, the latest leaks suggest it won’t be a powerhouse device in terms of specs, but rather focusing on new software technologies.
The Moto X ad campaign that launched this week just prior to the American Independence Day revealed that Motorola is marketing its upcoming Android device as the smartphone “you can design yourself.”
Although no further details have yet been revealed, it is expected that consumers will be able to design their own case, using something like a basic Google Nexus 4 as an outline.
“The first smartphone designed, engineered and assembled in the USA is coming,” reads the Moto X news sign up page. “It’s also the first smartphone that you can design yourself. Because today you should have the freedom to design the things in your life to be as unique as you are.”
Specs-wise the Moto X is tipped to pack a 4.7-inch 1280 x 768p resolution display, powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU.
As for a Moto X release date, Motorola has only given the rather frustrating “coming soon”, but we expect that further details, including the device’s new software, will be revealed on July 11.

Install CyanogenMod 11 4 4 KitKat in Samsung Galaxy S I9000
Samsung Galaxy S I9000 is the oldest mobile phone in Galaxy series by Samsung but still they are quite popular because S has great development and its very cheap too. Till now there is Android 4.3 Update for Samsung Galaxy S I9000 but now you could update it from Android 4.3 to 4.4 too! There will be very less noticeable changes in KitKat when youll upgrade it from Jelly Bean but you can notice the performance in KitKat OS. Samsung actually left support for this device because its old and they want users to buy Galaxy S3 or S4 but we can get KitKat by ROM! Yeah, if you have rooted your Samsung Galaxy S I9000 then you can surely upgrade it to KitKat.
Not only the AOSP ROM! You will get CyanogenMod 11 [KitKat] for Samsung Galaxy S I9000. Its a great ROM (CyanogenMod). You will get many extra features added by CM which you wont find in AOSP ROMs. CyanogenMod 11 is totally customizable so you can set the color of notification bar, change to millions of themes, use DSP Manager. Lets see what you will get in CyanogenMod 11-
Not only the AOSP ROM! You will get CyanogenMod 11 [KitKat] for Samsung Galaxy S I9000. Its a great ROM (CyanogenMod). You will get many extra features added by CM which you wont find in AOSP ROMs. CyanogenMod 11 is totally customizable so you can set the color of notification bar, change to millions of themes, use DSP Manager. Lets see what you will get in CyanogenMod 11-
- DSP Manager- Love the base? CyanogenMod has made an application that can control your loud speaker, headssets sound. In short it is an equalizer. You can set Loud Sound mode, Bass mode, Treble Mode and other Modes.
- Incognito Mode- You want to be anonymous and surf the internet? With CM you can be anonymous while browsing the internet, I mean you can fake the IP address and hence you are anonymous.
- Theme Changer- Bored of changing ROMs for just themes? With CM 11 you can download hundreds of themes available on Play Store as well as from XDA or blogs. Pink, Blue, Red, Yellow or any color, even transparent.
- Faster- The AOSP ROMs are always slow because of their blotwares, heavy themeing, high RAM counsming applications etc. but CyanogenMod is 5x faster than AOSP ROMs, I can guaranty you that. It has zipaligned applications, tons of tweaks inside framework, boot etc.
Actually there are many features but even I am excited to show you CyanogenMod 11 for Samsung Galaxy S. Lets not wait and see whats required, downloads and install tutorial.
Prerequisite
- The ROM is only made for Samsung Galaxy S I9000, please do not try it on your device untill youve S I9000 because it can lead to brick. No support will be provided to the users who will install this ROM on any other device.
- Backup your current data and contact numbers because in the process of installing CyanogeMod, the data will be totally erased. You can backup your data with GMAIL or with applications available in Google Play Store.
- Make a Nandroid backup before trying to install the ROM. If you backup the ROM with CWM (Nandroid backup) then you can easily restore the ROM if you found the ROM is not good or you find any bugs. The ROM is not supported by CyanogenMod so we cannot say that everything will be right. So be on the secure side by performing Nandroid backup.
- Before flashing the ROM, make sure the USB Development is enabled. To enable it go to
Settings -> developer options > check the USB Debugging checkbox. - Before charging make sure you have more than 70% battery because if the installation failed in between (because of no battery) then you might brick it.
Note
You might get set_metadata_recursive related errors if you are installing the ROM on custom kernel not supporting SELinux support to fix it, install any other kernel before flashing [having SELinux support] or stock kernel or simply install CM 10.2 before flashing CM11.
