Thanks for that tip. Found here and it is downloading at decent speed. Downloading from filehosts is such a PITA.
Do i need to also get the gapps ? Or is it inbuilt in this ROM ? If no then which gapps should i download ?

I guess you already must have been done with this. Anyways, gapps are separate in most cases. There should have been a separate link for the same either in XDA or the above mentioned site.

The ROM came with google play and maps and such and as it is i am not really using the phone for anything except a secondary number which is bought to give on websites like olx and all.
 
Guys any suggestion for a fast and stable OS. Visuals et al can be bare minimum. Currently have Mokee running on it and it lags. NOt able to choose a suitable OS. Kindly suggest.Would be really helpful
Thanks.

P.S. And 4.3 on Blade. This device is absolutely unstoppable. Cheers !!!!
 
I use the phone as a backup one and after running KonstaT's CM10.1 and 10.2 ROMs, I went back to MIUI GB as I find the phone to be snappier and better performing on that.
 
I reverted back to Gingerbread on my ZTE Blade as i had intentions to use it for tethering 3G connection. Earlier had JB but it required a separate app as stock JB removed tethering i believe. GB has native option to do so.
Now for the time being it is being used by my brother as he surrendered his infuse to me to sell it and get him an iPhone.
 
Bumping old thread.

So now that i have got this ZTE Blade fixed, i see it is on android 2.2 froyo and i believe it has never seen 2.3 GB. It does have CWM installed but that is probably old.
So i feel directly flashing a GB/JB ROM won't really be a good idea. I will also download that Mr Pigfish app to see whether the phone is still in GEN1 or has been converted to GEN2.
Because IIRC, we need to first convert the phone to Gen2 before installing GB/JB.
Also i believe there is a TPT method to convert the phone to Gen2 and install CWM and everything. I think it was by someone named wbaw on modaco.

So this is what i should be doing. Last i did this was like 2 years back so i don't really remember.
 
Today my phone just random rebooted when i went to sleep in my bed..so i just left it as i was sleepy..got up in the morning to find it still in boot screen [:blink:]
so removed battery ...the phone restarted to find the 'message android is upgrading' the classic cm10.2 bug...which is the sd-ext partition gets lost temporarily ..which is regained but after rebooting again...
but this time the phone was still stuck in boot-screen ...maybe it was rebuilding dalvik...but i wasnt patient enough as i had to go to work..
i was so badword' angry :mad::mad: that i almost threw my mobile against a wall [:p]
