- Make sure you have'nt updated your phone with FOTA.
- No need to hard reset after flashing if you have used my UDA.
- Wait for atleast one minute after first boot and after that restart your phone once.
- If the name of the ROFS2 is different from your current one, just rename it as your current ROFS2 and flash.
