Default MikG No-wipe (HOW-TO in post #2)

Due to MikG wiping data upon flash, you can get in a real bind when you screw something up and need to reflash the ROM in order to get it working again.

There was a lot of demand the first time I edited the file for JoJo(and I deleted figuring I wouldnt need it again ) but I keep seeing the problems with this crop up more and more so I figured I would do it again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the MIkG 3.11 full wipe ROM and I have edited the updater-script in order to not wipe anything upon flash as well and not reboot the phone upon completion of installation. This is a very easy modification but not everyone can or has the knowledge to do it when they need it most.

This is still Miks ROM, I have only edited what it does when its installed. All credit for MikG goes to aamikam over at themikmik.com


This is ONLY for people flashing the ROM over itself!!!! If you currently have another ROM installed and want to install mikG do a full wipe and download the appropriate full wipe version.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, this is going through my dropbox, so if it gets overloaded with downloads it'll lock me out of it for a few days and I can't link anyone to the other helpful files in there. So download it as needed, and it'd be appreciated if those of you who aren't likely to need this right away wait a few days to download.

It would also be appreciated if you would add it to your own dropbox in the event mine goes down.

Also.....this is untested as I have the EVO 4G LTE, so if someone would let me know it works that would be great

Now how to do this yourself for future updates to MikG or other ROMS.

How I did this:
(Difficulty level:easy )

1)Download the latest MikG ROM to your desktop.

2)Using 7zip or a similar program unzip the file

3)Open the unzipped folder and navigate to the updater-script located in:
META-INF>com>google>android>updater-script

4)Open the updater-script using a program like notepad++
The script will look something like this




5)Delete the lines in bold below:






6)Replace your new edited file with the one in the rom

7)Zip it back up and your good to go. I find it helpful to create a new zipped folder and then copy the data, META-INF, system, and boot.img folders into it
