We will be flashing zips here soon, so I created this. Run this before you install your ROM. It will wipe everything, so backup all your stuff. Good to stay out of boot loops
Worked on my phone so let me know how it works on yours!
Matt did point something out at this time it only wipes cache, dalvik cache, and system.

Cache, dalkvik cache, and sytem wipe.

That doesn't matter, you now have the latest firmware on your phone, and there's no going back at this time.

Well, I clicked on your link for the OTA download, downloaded 1.47GB file, it has a name "OTA-Jellybean-4.1.2_system-boot.tar.tar".

I am on Win8, IE10 machine if that matters.

See attached image. Odd that yours is .tar.tar..? What browser are you using?
Win8/IE10.
BTW, same thing happened with TWRP recovery which was supposed to be ...tar.md5. I ended up flashing it from adb rather than Odin.
OK, I have changed the extension to tar.md5 from tar.tar.
Flashing as we speak. We'll find out soon what happens.
Very odd... I've Win 8 pro on my other laptop that i use to test all my odin images downloaded with Chrome and they all come in with tar.md5. It may be a ie10 thing, thinking the extensions should be different.
Nice thing is, since it's just the boot and system, if it fails (which it shouldn't since it does it's own md5 check) you can just revert to your backup.

No go.
The tab reboots itself after the boot animation.
Did wipe cache, Dalvik, then did factory reset, reflashed. Same thing.
Going to restore TWRP backup. Oh well.

Opera gives the same ..tar.tar extension, so I am going w/Chrome. Chrome gives the correct .tar.md5 extension.

That is honestly, the strangest thing I've ever heard. Theory: Opera and IE both thing the MD5 is a mistake and they rename it .tar.tar. Since it IS a .tar with a .md5 extension, it makes sense.

I think you are right. Both IE and Opera outsmart themselves, they are used to the MD5 files being just a few kbs, and not having double extension, so they "correct" this.
Again, no go.
I did:
- Titanium backup;
- TWRP backup;
- Wipe cache, Dalvik, factory reset;
- Powered off, rebooted into the download mode;
- Flashed w/Odin successfully.,
- rebooted.
The tab keeps rebooting after the start animation.

Did you flash the modem? It shouldn't make a difference.. but who knows.
Also, after flashing with odin, try wiping cache and dalvik again.

No, the same. Wiped cache and Dalvik immediately after the /successful/ flash from Odin.

Oh well. Like you said, it is not bricked and I can restore my TWRP backup.

you can flash any of the zips with "system" in the name; the names are self explanatory.
it isn't necessary to flash boot (but doesn't hurt) unless you are upgrading from an earlier stock build or coming from an aosp/cm/cm-variant build.
it isn't necessary to flash radio (but doesn't hurt) unless you are upgrading from an earlier stock build or have done the gsm hack and want to undo it.

what did you have installed before trying to flash? as i mentioned, if you're coming from a stock build prior to 98.30.1 or from aosp/cm, you need to flash the boot image. if you're not even getting to the bootanimation, this is likely the issue. if you're coming from an earlier stock build, you should also flash the radio. if you boot loop on the animation, you need to wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache.

if you know of a good massage app, i'd like to know what it is, especially if it gives happy endings lol.
if you mean "message" which i imagine you do, there are various messaging apps available on the play store, the most notable being google hangouts which now has sms integration.
the purpose of this rom is to remove all unnecessary apps that can be downloaded from the play store, so you're not stuck with a bunch of bloat that you don't want or need. there are replacements for the phone, contacts, camera, and gallery as well...

yes, wifi tether is unlocked, as mentioned in the op.
as for wifi, there's no reason it shouldn't work, as i didn't modify anything that has to do with it. i'd recommend wiping everything except internal and external storage, then flashing boot, system, and radio to ensure a clean install. please post if you still have issues after doing that.
I tried to flash PAC ROM to my Atrix HD but I ran into several major bumps in the road. I rooted my phone with motochopper, unlocked the bootloader with motopocalypse, and flashed CWM onto it. I then did several backups with the Super Backup application and two nandroid backups via CWM. I then, after wiping the cache and doing a factory reset, flashed PAC ROM and GAPPS onto the phone (had the .zip files on the SD Card). The phone would then boot up with the PAC ROM boot animations but after booting up I was taken to a black screen with errors that kept popping up even after pressing OK about setup wizard and GAPPS not working along with a few more that I can not remember, but the Navigation Bar still there and I could go to the setting via the Status Bar. I then went back to CWM to try to go stock again but both of the backups that I had made wouldn't work because the /data wouldn't recover, however I decided to go ahead and boot up normally anyway because I had made the Super Backups previously. I then boot up, sign back into Google and try to install the Super Backup application but kept receiving the "-24" error. I tried several ways I found on this site to try to be able to install it again, none of which worked. So now I don't have a way to restore my backups even though they're still on my SD card. Can someone please help, and I will happily re explain something clearer if necessary.

bad idea will make the boot slower in TWRP and plus its runnning t-mobile lastest update so you should be good!
I hope you are confused. You can write the numbers of the md5 of the zip you uploaded on the first page, not adding one for twrp to check, but so that people can still use a checker before they try to install it and say you messed something up when it was just a bad download

Beta are always invite only. You had to fill the form to be able to receive it over the air. Never the less, if you have an unlocked bootloader, you can just download that build and flash it through TWRP. The latest build has been floating on the internet since its release.

Oh, I thought that was for the closed beta only. Thank you Does flashing it via TWRP wipe my data?

If you’re already running stock China MIUI, you could just dirty flash it. Wiping Data doesn’t wipe your Internal Storage. Backup beforehand incase something goes wrong.

So the only steps I need to do is just backup everything, then flash the rom and wipe data, cache/dalvik?

Just copy your important stuff from Internal storage to PC. Flash the MIUI beta followed by a Cache, Dalvik wipe. Reboot. If you rather want it clean, go back to stock recovery after first MIUI 11 boot and wipe data. That should suffice for a clean restore.
PS: Stock Recovery would overwrite your custom TWRP on boot so incase you need that, you’ll have to flash it again.
