    There's no 'Special Actions' option in Redwolf 27. I guess Redwolf supported incremental OTA only until v23.

    Is there a way to install Incremental OTA for latest Redwolf?
    I once tried the MIUI updater but it reset my phone completely and did a fresh install automatically. I had no option but to start anew, losing all my data, even internal data which had my Nandroid backup.
