OK guys I am soooooooooooo close!!! Now my only issue is that when I try to flash the flashme.zip it starts and then says installation aborted? Did I do something wrong? I followed the guide to every step and here I am!
I believe it did that to me the first time. Try running powerboost again, activate the mods, and then exit. Reboot into recovery and manually flash the flashme zip

you used the exit in the menu and selected device correct?

When you type sysrw in terminal what does it do? Does it give you an error message?
Before I saw this, I tried to do one mod at a time but had issues with it, kept getting errors on exit when building the zip if I tried to only build the build.prop mod into the zip with nothing else, or only the init.d scripts.

What finally worked with no problems was building the zip without the Fix Permissions mod zipped. I'm now running MIUI 1.10.21 with unthrottle, build.prop, sysctl, init.d scripts, and conservative governor. Without installing the Fix Permissions mod, I flashed the zip and everything continued to work wonderfully with no data issues on Wifi or 3G. Toggled the mods on, and still no problems. So for whatever reason, something the Fix Permissions mod put into the zip was messing up my data when switching between Wifi and 3G.

Also just used the same configuration with VorteX RC1 and that is working as well.
Question -- I want to do this since i have had problems with wifi and 3g recently (pretty much after a few hours of installing pb). However, I already created the flashme.zip with the fix permissions mod. So, my question is, can i simply recreate the flashme.zip without the fix permissions mod, and then reflash? Will that work? Or, do i need to reflash the rom and start over? Just want to know what to do next. TIA.

It does nothing. Just shows # is that right?

Yes that's right. You should just get a # after you run powerboost and add the mods and then exit it should ask what your device model is. You select the device and then the script creates/modifies the flashme.zip. Do you see any errors ad it does that.or just after?

Just during the flash it aborts.
Does this work on vortex rom?
Doesn't work on MIUI 11.9, don't know about vortex, try it at your own risk
Does this work on vortex rom?
yes it dose I just got it up and running.
Just during the flash it aborts.
When you boot into recovery what file are you chosing the flashme.zip file from? The unthrottle folder on the root of the sdcard or going into sdcard/extracted/? It might be that you need to reflash rom and start over again. If you do that just delete anything and everything on the sdcard regarding PB and then redownload PB2.2

Check your permissions for sysrw and powerboost. they are both in /system/xbin make sure all boxes are checked (777)
Thanks, but I just tried that too but still no go. I dunno why it's not working. Even rebooted just to be sure. I didn't have this problem with the first version.
