Yes you can install froyo ROM if you've custom-recovery installed
but the problem is that froyo is more unstable than gingerbread [CM7.1]
I'd suggest you install over-clocked kernel on CM 7.1 it might work better than before.
Reply with your results.

Thanks
Where do I get the overclocked kernel for CM 7.1 ?
I am a n00b.. Help much appreciated..
BTW now I am on CWM 6.1 froyo rom with the MB300..
What I observed is with Froyo the MB300 has more free memory than with GB rom..
Using Tango and Nimbuzz I dont get reboots.. But video is not working on Tango.. Could be firmware or memory issue ?
Also how can I get Flash installed for MB300? I dont find it on market.. Tried different markets with Enabler but still no Flash..
Maybe I am missing something..
Thanks again for the help

Information on Wifi tethering and flash player? I have installed the ROM and it's working great so far, just wish I could have these features.

work is in progress guys please wait

WOW!!! REALLY??? How lucky are we that i stumbled in here..... DO NOT USE THAT OC KERNEL!!!! OC for cm7 is BUILT IN.. and working. Settings>CMsettings>performance. Go play with the dragons.
EDIT.... For All those looking for flash... look hard, cause i havent found it. there's some arm6 flash 10.1 out there that works..eh. if its running of the sd (ext3/4)... actually thats a little less than fair. it works well for flash apps such as tinyshark but usually crashes when trying to run larger flash in the browser. There's also the puffin browser... which i HIGHLY recommend. Its about time someone made skyfire do some WORK. Puffin may very well be the best $1 you ever spent on your phone. remember where ya heard it. =D

Thanks to warn us abt the OC kernel for NOT installing in CM7.1 and we are aware that Cyanogen has their own over-clockin' settings.
n well amitheunlimited just posted it here to get all the resources in one place.
This is a forum where we all developers try to collect global resources and test on our devices to seek BEST performance from our gadgets. Please be kind to everyone else, and if you've tested the kernel please let us know the flaws.

Type the command "flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img" in terminal
emulator.
6.a.Set up ADB on ur PC.

b.Set up fastboot on your pc...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719
FASTBOOT mode in MI310- Camera+trackpad+power
Connect to PC...install USB drivers......open cmd.exe
type "fastboot devices"......
U sud see...."? Fastboot"
u can also check fastboot by typing fastboot reboot in cmd......
n u know what reboot means....duh! So ur phone sud reboot.
*Fastboot n ADB will be useful wen ur device falls into any problems.
7. Now use ClockworkMod Recovery to backup ur stock rom......
backup SDcard too.
CWM Recovery mode- shutdown den trackpad+volume up+power
U can use ROM manager too..
8. Now jst download ur choice of ROM (Dodol n Miezo RC5 recommended)
[ http://translate.google.co.in/tran...D8021985&hl=en&biw=1291&bih=671&prmd=imvnsfd ]
n put the zip file in SD card...
Use CWM or ROM Manager to flash rom.
Go into CWM recovery mode n use 'flash from zip file' option...
It will take around 5-10 mins in average...
n den phone will reboot jst wait for few more mins as this will the first boot... n there DONE!
**U may have to use amend2edify script converter to flash ROMs...
You must check if whether the rom is using edify or amend script :-
(just open .zip with winrar,winzip or etc -> goto meta-inf -> google ->android)
if it just update-script then it's AMEND [n u must convert it]
if it have 2 files named updater-script and update-binary then it's EDIFY!
link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903598
**Don't panic if ur phone remains still for some moments...its jst working...bt do panic if the time is huge..
**Use link2sd app instead of apps2SD/DarkTremor.
**Google build.prop tweaks... get going n experiment[carefully though]...
Welcome to The World of choice,speed, style and space......Real Android!

and for rom installation, better to wipe your data first if you come from another rom to avoid incompatibility
also you must check if whether the rom is using edify or amend script (just open .zip with winrar,winzip or etc -> goto meta-inf -> google ->android)
if it just update-script then it's amend
if it have 2 files named updater-script and update-binary then it's edify

i haven't using dodol, previously i'm using ciu (mbekonang & monata),andro-id 2.3, and my own rom
but as far as i know dodol's user on my forum (kaskus) doesn't get the problem like yours or i say it never got it
just re-root it via cwm recovery
or just do this simple steps for reinstalling rom
1. enter cwm recovery
2. do nandbackup (backup & restore -> backup)
3. wipe data (if your rom is dodol then you don't need to wipe data, dodol will do it automatically)
4. install zip from sdcard (choose dodol rom)
5. restore your data,cache,sd-et (backup & storage -> advanced restore -> restore data , .... , ....)
6. reboot your device

a knowledge about coding can be used for compiling any rom from scratch on android but that never happen without any source code
but i will ask my friend how to push/pull data from github or anything like that, maybe i could repair a little thing on gingerbread
No need to download the full Android sdk(it also require you to download Java development kit), if you're not into developing.
Just the below one will work more than fine:

NOW INTRUCTIONS--​[--Unlock bootloader and root your explorer (if you haven't already) follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415223 to root. Dont create a partition just yet.
--Download cm-7-20120807-UNOFFICIAL BUILD #4-pico.zip from mediafire link below and copy it anywhere on sdcard.
--Download gaaps from link below and copy it on sdcard
--Boot into recovery
-- (optional but recommended) go to backup and restore and select backup. This will backup your phone just as it is so that if u ever wanna revert back you can just restore from recovery. (Thanx Liverpool_fan for tip)
--Go into mounts and storage and format /system and /boot and come back and wipe data/factory reset (even if you have any custom rom installed)
--Select Install zip from sdcard-> choose zip from sdcard-> browse to where you have copied the zip file and select it
--Wait for the installation to complete and download latest kernel from link below and flash it in recovery. (format of kernal MDD so update to the latest one)
--flash gaaps to install basic google apps.
--Now select reboot and wait for your phone to boot up.
--If you want to move your dalvik cache to sdext first you will have to partition your sd card. 512mb partition is enough. Use minitoolwizard to partition your sdcard. Partition it in only ext2, ext3 or ext4 format because fat32 is not supported. You can also use recovery (advanced>partition sdcard) to partition but it will erase all data on your sdcard so back it up.
--Now dowload a2sd.zip (credit- Sakindia) and flash it through recovery. You can find a2sd.zip where the kernals are uploaded (check below)
--Reboot and go into Terminal emulator and type "a2sd cachesd" (without quotes)
--Wait for the working to finish and reboot. You have 148mb internal memory free now. :good:
--Alternatively people are saying that s2e is more stable. So download s2e from play store.
--check everything except application data. Reboot.
NOTE: Either flash a2sd or install s2e.
--Enjoy.!!
(OPTIONAL)--
--Download titanium backup and come to the app list now long press on any app and select move data to sd. It will ask you to create a directory, accept! Now select menu button while still in titanium backup and select batch. Come down to option "move app data to sd". Run it to get more internal memory but I recommend to use class 6 sdcard if you are moving app data.​

Fantastic work!
But I suggest you to change the thread name, and including the following "[TUTORIAL]", because poeple will think that is the main thread to this rom.
Regards!
a nice guide to help people:good:, one thing to though is you need to say "backup your old rom with cmw 1st before installing any other" (just incase) and also to stop conflicts from other roms that have been installed you really need to format system, boot, in mounts/storage menu aswell as factory wipe..............
You sir just made my day.

I know, I installed the Consumer Preview in order to try it out, problem is I was doing multiple things at the same time and accidentally installed it over Vista.
I was too lazy to reinstall Vista back so I just decided to wait for the final version to be released as the preview works just fine for everything I do with my laptop... Well until now anyway, ha.

(I would use jaggy's tutorial to ask but since it hasn't been active for ten days I thought I'd be better to ask here instead of bumping the other thread, if I'm wrong I apologize)
So yeah, I'm still at the rooting process and it seems I'm definitely out of luck on this one.
So first off, I apparently managed to unlock the bootloader (and it IS unlocked, when I'm in bootloader mode I do have the "*** unlocked ***" on top of the screen) and at the same time keeping my apps, settings, etc...This was the first flag that something was wrong.
Adding the Recovery seems to have worked out fine, however when I tried to install the Superuser.zip I got the apparently not-so-uncommon "(Status 0) Installation aborted" message. I did some research and tried the method of removing the extra "updater-script~" from the archive but it did not work. Tried the method of doing a nandroid backup and then installing Superuser but no luck either.
I'm getting seriously hopeless, any idea on what I might have done wrong and how to get Superuser working?
Which recovery did you install, I was having some problems flashing anything with non-yannou's (I know i wrote it stupid but, you've got the idea )
Anyway, give a try to flash some rom, not sure if it will work without superuser installed, but nothing worse can happen (I think)

I installed the Recovery given by jaggy's tutorial. But Recovery isn't the problem as far as I know, since I've the option to install .zip file when in Recovery mode. My only issue comes from the fact that the Superuser file won't install itself.

This ROM aims at bringing to the G2X community what it deserves : a fully working jellybean (this is NOT the hackfest) build based on CM10.1 (android 4.2.1). I wanted this powerful device to get the very best, and now it will get the most recent android system, updated whenever I will have some time to. Never again, we will wait for LG to update this device.
As most of you know, the radio doesn't work, which means no calls/SMS on CM10/10.1. That is why I adapted a dual boot system (based on bihariel's work) for this device.​
WHY DUAL BOOT?
With dual booting, you can choose between two ROMS and change from one to another in less than 20 seconds!
You can change to CM10.1 to...
- Feel what it means to have a buttery smooth device
- Play games
- Make free WIFI calls (US and Canada) with GrooveIP lite
- Use the most recent android OS.
When you're on the go, change to a CM7/CM9/CM10 (hackfest) ROM...
- FAST!
- Without altering the CM10.1 files
- To make phone calls and receive SMS
DISCLAIMER
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE of any damages to your device related to the use of this ROM or the dualboot toolkit. You do this at your own risk. Even though this has been tested and works well, using NVFLASH may brick your device if done incorrectly.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
This ROM comes in two flavours: The dualboot toolkit or the Original flashable ROM
Dualboot ROM Instructions
WARNING! NVFLASH will format EVERYTHING, including internalSD. Make sure you backup your important files on your externalSD card
PART 1 - Resizing system partition
1) Unzip the dualboot toolkit and unzip NVFLASH_Resizer-G2X.zip.
2) Power off your phone and remove the battery. Keep vol. up and vol. down held and plug the phone via USB to a WINDOWS computer.
3) Windows should add an "APX driver". Go to control panel -> Device manager and right click on it -> Update driver -> search in system. Then, browse to the drivers folder inside the NVFLASH package and choose nvidiausb.inf. Approve any error messages (Windows 8 users read my FAQ). Install the Nvidia Fastboot driver.
4) Unplug your phone and hold down vol.up and vol.down. Replug it again and double click on flash.bat inside the NVFLASH folder. KEEP BOTH BUTTONS HELD DOWN DURING THE WHOLE PROCESS!.
5) When NVFLASH is done, unplug the phone and put back the battery. Reboot into recovery with power + vol. down. Plug it back and go to mounts and storage -> mount USB storage. If your PC asks to format the internal SD card, select yes.​
PART 2 - Installing ROMS
1) Download the desired "call/SMS" ROM and extract boot.img from it's flashable zip. Rename it to boot1.img. Extract Step3_bootimg.zip from the dualboot toolkit and copy-paste boot1.img into system/boot, replacing the file that is already there. Repack Step3_bootimg.zip.
2) Copy-paste your desired ROM into the 0dualboot folder and send it to your device SDcard with everything it contains (your device should already be in the "mount USB storage" menu).
3) From the recovery, flash Step1_enabler.zip. When the screen goes black, hold power + vol. down to get back into recovery.
4) Flash your desired ROM, then Step2_ROM1.zip. Reboot to the OS.
5) You should have a Systemchanger app. Open it, click on "Switching" and give root permissions. When the screen goes black (again...), hold power + vol. down to get into recovery.
6) Flash ROM2.zip and Step3_Bootimg.zip and reboot in the OS
And there you go! To switch from one OS to another, just open the systemchanger app and click on "switching"!
Credits to bihariel for the original method. See the original thread here.​
Original flashable zip ROM instructions
1) Boot into recovery with power + vol. down
2) Wipe data/cache, then mounts and storage -> format system
3) Flash this ROM
4) Advanced -> Wipe dalvik cache and fix permissions
5) Reboot and enjoy!​
Special trick : In settings, go to About phone and click 6 times on Build number. This will pop up the developer and performances options. In performances options, CPU settings, change the governor from INTERACTIVE to SMARTASSV2.

FAQ
I am using Windows 8 and I cannot install NVFLASH drivers!
In windows 8, you will need to go on Select Settings (right bar)/More PC Settings (at bottom). Then go General/Advanced Startup/Restart Now/Troubleshoot/Advanced Options/Windows Startup Settings/Restart. Disable driver signature enforcement (should be options 7 I think). If you don't get to the advanced startup menu, keep pressing F8 when rebooting.
I am getting Status 7 errors while flashing this ROM!
This is possible, and to fix this simply flash another CM10.1 ROM before (adampk's build 7) and dirty flash this ROM again. If it doesn't work, go to mounts and storage and manually mount /system.
I found a bug, can I submit a logcat ?
Yes, but make sure you are taking a logcat while the bug happens. Please post them in a userthread or send them to me via PM. Thanks!
I have a suggestion for your ROM...
...and I'm always open to them! Whether it's for integrating new apps, themes, tweaks, I'm always open for good ideas! PM me or post in the user thread.
I am experiencing FC and some base apps are missing!!
This is not normal. I've been running this build for two days in a row and didn't have a single issue. You should consider reinstalling using the Original flashable ZIP package. Simply boot to CM10.1, power off the phone, then get into recovery using power + vol. down and follow the instructions (if you are using the Dualboot Toolkit).

Whoa. I think I'm going to try it out. Maybe a stable Gingerbread ROM like hellfire for calls to back up the CM10 goodness. Would switching ROMs often, like 3 or 4 times an hour, have much impact on battery?

Thanks! This was not my main project as this is only a port of cm10.1 (with some fixes and many tweaks to make it interesting of course ) because I had some issues with the other one but I'll try to make this one as useful as possible even without radio. I actually compiled this and realized that it was very efficient and functional.

Switching ROMS shouldn't have a very big impact on battery usage. Changing the CPU governor to SMARTASSV2 and keeping airplane mode on (in CM10.1) might help somewhat, but I already silenced the radio so it shouldn't use too much battery anyway.
If everything goes as planned, I should release another kernel build by tomorrow to add some interesting features and the upcoming "weekly" updates for this ROM will be available as "patches" for those who already have the dual boot set up to make it as simple as possible. Of course, new users will also have the full CWM flashable zip version.
I installed Original flashable ZIP (For single boot). It's the one that I am looking for a while.

I don't know what's going on but after I unziped this dual boot file with 7zip and I went into the "0dualboot" folder then the "NVFlash_Resizer-G2x" and in there I find the "Drivers" folder like you said. However, in the drivers folder is the "amd64" and "i386" but both of those folders are empty. Nothing is inside them at all. Am I missing something? This is on Win7 so should find it just fine. Can anyone help me with this?
Edit: I just downloaded the file "DBToolkit_cm10.1_p999" for the 3rd time with the same problem. Also the file you specified, "flash.bat" isn't showing up either in the NVFlash folder.
Thank you so much. I hope people like you keep the G2X development alive.
Thanks again.

Oh woah my bad...I honestly don't understand why it's missing files in the NVFLASH package..Well it's being reuploaded at the moment so it should be ready in about 5-10 minutes.
Sorry for this.
I will download it myself and verify it to make sure everything is okay now...If something is wrong just reply back
EDIT: Okay it's back up and I verified everything so you should be good.

Use the single boot (Original flashable zip) if you do not want to use nvflash. For dual boot, you don't have the choice. If you backup everything with titanium backup on your externalSD or computer you shouldn't lose anything though.

hey man thanks for your work, where you found time to tinker with our little dual boot problem, while working on the kernel and everything else, i wont ever know. dang dude. will be trying this out after i replace my wifes screen tonight. i would say the G2X community owes you one...or more. thanks again!
Ok, so I was installing this dual boot and ran across a problem, I, now, cannot mount the system or cache after the first step... So I cannot get a ROM on my phone to work at this time. Any ideas?

Restart the NVFLASH process. Make sure you keep vol. up and vol. down held during the whole process. Plug the phone directly in a USB port from your motherboard (not in a splitter or a front port, for example). Also make sure you followed the instructions correctly and that the bootloader and recovery files are completely sent when running NVFLASH.
Oh also, verify that you have the correct drivers installed (Nvidia USB-boot driver or something like that) and extract everything for the NVFLASH archive.
Just to make sure the archive is okay now, can I have a confirmation of someone who tried it and it worked ?

Thank you, I never thought to redo the NVFLASH.
Now, the NVFLASH opened a windows for a second or less when I told it to run. Is that normal?
And the APX drivers are installed correctly because I have been going from twrp to cwm and back without a problem.
I will try it again when I get home because my brother in law doesn't have a working pc. Will let you know and let me know about the NVFLASH please. Thank you
---------- Post added at 01:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:01 PM ----------
Forgot to mention, the Window that opens on NVFLASH closes in less than a second so I cannot read it.
Awesome work Mazout! I'll try out this method after my exams are over, Also, do you want a new Userthread for this Dualboot system or will you use the older one?

[rom][05/01/14] Slimkat 4.4.2 beta 2 [UNOFFICIAL][KITKAT]

Frequent Q&A (maybe?)
​
Q: WHY FAQ FIRST?
A: Because, I have seen some of you guys are so lazy to scroll down a bit to read this as this is essential post I think. And further more, I don't want you to brick your phone because of your lack of reading skill .
Q: Am I advised to do anything?
A: READ THIS CAREFULLY everyone. Since I changed the partition layout for more convenient to work on kitkat or future Android so I advise you to do a oneclick heimdall back to BML first, do a full wipe except for the sdcard and then flash the kitkat zip. Once u r in TWRP, full wipe and flash the build again (with or without gapps) . I might change the partition table several times until I have the good space calculation for rom and gapps tho, so this procedure is advised/required - just took u 30s to do that tho.
I will also mark the zip/update that have another different table that required this procedure then, otherwise, you can update via dirty flash.
Link to heimdall package: AntonX's Basic with a twist kernel [BML]
And here is the recommended procedure:
1. Make backup or whatever u need then copy the ROM into ur sdcard.
2. Reboot into Recovery and full wipe except sdcard.
3. Reboot into Download mode and Heimdall oneclick BML ROM/kernel
4. Flash the Slimkat build from CWM 5.x
5. After booted into TWRP, full wipe and flash the Slimkat ROM again - use the button combo to get into TWRP if it doesn't do it automatically.
6. Reboot and enjoy!
Q: Is this Rooted?
A: Yes it is. To have the Root privileges, Go to settings>about phone>then tap build number 7 times to enable the developer settings, once enabled, under root access, choose apps and adb. That's all. (Thanks to @foxxx5oh)
Q: Why doesn't this have Focal?
A: Because Focal is not available on Slimkat.
Q: Where is 'fix permission' option in CWM?
A: I believe koush decided to throw away the fix permissions button in CWM because he said it was largely placebo effect and had no real purpose anymore. (Thanks to @cpkelley94)
Q: Dahell, I can't use Google Now.
A: I found that all you have to do to fix Google now is get root explorer, titanium backup or SD maid, remove system app Google search and reinstall from play store... (Thanks to @turtlepa)
Q: My battery drains so fast and I found out that WiFi kept awake and running in background even I disabled it. Why?
A: Due to new Android version permission, Google set up a new option to allow Gapps to scan for nearby networks even when WiFi is off. To disable that, go to settings>WiFi>advance>untick the scanning always available option n u r cool again .
Q: Is this really KITKAT? And can I eat it?
A: Yes, yes it is. And u r advised to cook it before eating tho. Enjoy your meal then .

Okay, The first Kitkat build is up. Go to my Goo.im, download and enjoy everyone! I need you to test the Slimcenter OTA updater for the next update also . Stay tuned!
Remember to follow the OPs tho, especially the first one about FAQ. You have to carefully follow the procedure to flash this ROM: Heimdall oneclick back to BML and then flash it. Remember to do a full wipe!
One more: for stability, OC and UV are not recommended. I might revert those 2 features in the next build.

Hmm weird, lets me check the build again, or I might upload my previous build insted (w/o ota support). Interesting that the only change in this build compare to previous one running on mine is OTA suport and it was cleaner build (on mine was dirty one).
Oh wait, did u flash the build again via TWRP? If not, I am sorry that I forgot telling ya that once u r in TWRP, u have to flash it again (u know how to use TWRP rite?)
Anw, u can still heimdall again n flash slimbean tho so dunt worry

Did u flash the ROM again in TWRP? I mean:
1. Copy the ROM to sdcard then Heimdall BML kernel
2. Full wipe except sdcard and flash Slimkat build
3. After booted into TWRP, full wipe and flash the build again.
4. Reboot.

Use the Combo volume + volume - and power button to boot into Recovery tho. If u wiped b4 heimdall then after flashing slimkat, it should bring u into TWRP. that was weird unless u hadn't wiped :/.
now again:
- installed fresh 2.3.6.
- installed AntonX-Basic_with_a_twist-v1.1.0-OC_UV
- wait 5~ minute on boot logo !!
- boot on cwm and install your rom
- auto reboot into TWRP
- install rom again
- wipe
- Reboot
- Phone boot into KitKat
Thank You !!!
jeez! no dao!
its working for me!
i just cant take screen shot! but it works promise DDDDD
THANKS! DDDDDDDDDDD

I added the right procedure onto OP anyway so everyone else should follow it easier. And FYI, u should have OTA updater works from now on for updating the ROM in future. U should receive a notification automatically everytime I upload a new build then. One more thing I have to do is finding a way to include Changelog and mayb look over GPS then .

I'm gonna exclude the OC and UV from the next update anw. It causes more trouble to the stability than it helps on the battery tho. Plus, it's good to let the phone rest for a while, 15 to 30 seconds after every boot finishes to ensure that u won't have freeze/reboot afterwards. and ye. Slimkat just hit the Beta phrase yet, features are slowly merged tho so stay tuned for OTA gift .
Thank you so much for is dao!
OTA works great. Is ART functioning? My SELinux status says Enforcing. Is that a problem?

The ROM will be deodexed, themed, bloatware removed etc. This is just pure stock with root.... We'll work on some optional custom mods to flash, debloat script, and more

Nothing like a good de-bloat! .. as im fairly new to this .. purely out of curiosity what kind of things cause "bloat" .. and are they just space occupiers or do they hog other system resources as well?

Check out http://whatisbloatware.com/ for a quick overview of what bloatware is and why it's used etc.
Personally, I hate it - kills battery life, keeps your phone "awake" while running in the background, gathers usage stats and "anonymous" data/analytics, uses your data connection a hell of a lot.....
I'll make a de-bloat script to remove particularly useless and intrusive apps now.....
**If anyone has anything they want to have removed (e.g. Google Play Books/Movies/Games/Newsstand, Facebook, Social Engine etc) please let me know.....

Did you download on your computer? How big is the file? It should be 1.04GB (1,120,141,657 Bytes (or very near to that size......) If it is, try renaming as M4.4.4.2.zip (no spaces) and pushing to your phone by copying from the computer to the sdcard, or use adb push M4.4.4.2.zip /sdcard
If that doesn't work, redownload it..
Deodexing in progress - will be integrating busybox, supersu, and..... removing system protection!!

ideally a majority of the htc stuff, stock, kid mode etc and how a bout having the ability for a seperate gapps package like these http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 . i personally use minimal gapps so use the micro modular package.

Bizarre..... I downloaded it again about an hour ago, only issue was that I had to add .zip at the end of the filename and choose "all files" from the "type" dropdown....
If you can hang on a while, a deodexed version with Busybox and supersu, plus unsecured kernel will be up.... working on it now!
no boot for me
