| This post was edited by 147758545 at 16:59, Feb-17-2015 What is Fastboot? Fastboot is a protocol that can be used to re-flash partitions on your device (update the flash file system in Android devices). It is this small tool that comes with the Android SDK (Software Developer Kit), which is an alternative to the Recovery Mode for doing installations and updates. Before anything else, first download cwm recovery here! http://en.miui.com/thread-58602-1-1.html Note: You need to install this version of ClockworkdModbefore updating to latest version. Thanks to @RockinBandit How to flash using fastboot mode: 1. Download adb drivers and install 2. Enable USB debugging in Developer options (if you're running the laste MIUI 6, Just launch Settings > Additional settings > Developer options)   3. Download platform tools 4. Extract platform tools to wherever you want (mine is located @ F:\Temper\platform-tools)  5. And at the same time, press Shift + Right click to open and click Open command window here.  6. Type "adb devices" to see if you're device is detected.  7. Type "adb reboot bootloader" to reboot in to fastboot mode.  8. Now to check if you're device is still there, type "fastboot devices".  9. Navigate to the flashable zip and extract it to platform-tools (mine is located @ F:\Temper\platform-tools\recovery.img)   10. Type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". Notice that the recovery.img corresponds the filename extracted earlier 11. Now type "fastboot reboot" to reboot the device.  Credits to MIUI, Google and XDA! |
