Hey guys, i got the motorola milestone xt720 a few weeks ago and i installed the dexters froyo 2.2.1 on it by reverendkjr's instructions on youtube. After a while i got bored and tried installing Cyanogenmod 7 on my phone by reverendkjr's guide on installing cyanogenmod 6.3 using open recovery. After doin this, it said "well done" and "install success" then i chose "reboot now". After that, it stuck on the M logo. Plz help! I dnt want my parents to get mad.

Have you made a wipe all user data ?
Sent from my Milestone XT720 using xda app-developers app
I guess you haven't wiped the Davlik cache, wipe it back to factory data, wipe the partition cache (guess that's the name, if I recall) . Anyway, I do not recomment 7.2 !!! Install the CM 6.3 or CronosX !
Flashing back to stock is very simple, so there is nothing to worry about .
thanks for replying

Get CronosX or CM 6.3.7 . (I recomment CronosX) .
Do i have to be in stock rom if i want to install CronosX?

If your phone won't boot & you can't get into Open Recovery you will to flash an SBF back to stock, root your phone & install Open Recovery to be able to flash any custom ROM.
I'll check back if ur advise works, thanks

i have a little concern.
I bought my milestone xt720 unlocked for all carriers, i currently have tmobile. would flashing it back to stock rom using rsd lite put it back to running in its original carrier??

It shouldn't. I know many here (me included when I had this phone) flashed the UK & Singapore SBFs without any issues with the carrier.
Which sbf should i flash
ive read a list of SBFs for the xt720 and there's only two SBFs thats in US. Brightpoint US and Cincinatti Bell US. it could even be Videotron Canada. which one should i use??
Viedeotron!
OK i guessed and i got it right, it was videotron, i used rsd lite and flashed it!! thanks, it works again!!:laugh:

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
every roms which are working on AT&T infuse will work on Rogers infuse (I'm using a rogers one as well)
for GB I recommend Rogers stock 2.3.3 or MIUI galnet
for ICS I strongly recommend Paranoid !
Okay excellent, thank you

Yes, it will. The advantage of us having the Rogers version of the Infuse is that we have Gingerbread bootloaders. This means that if we ever want to flash ICS, we are not bound to get "rainbow" recoveries.
As for flashing ICS, please read a lot before you flash. It is best to know every single thing to avoid problems.
If you need any help, you can PM me.
Good luck!

Yes, any ics ROM would work just fine on the Rogers' phone (I am another Rogers user on custom ROM - Remics 1.3). Make sure you have a good backup and a working recovery firmware (Get CWM ROM Manager from Play store and flash ClockworkMod Recovery) before flashing. Recovery firmware is key for flashing - both for successful flashing as well as recovering from a failed one.
Good luck!

I never trust Rom manager...its been known to cause bricks for some...
You can also get recovery from the second post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1524081
If you plan on flashing ics you will have to double flash though...

+1. ...and sometimes restoring a backup that was made using rom manager does not work. The only thing I use rom manager for now is to rename my backup (give it a "name" versus a "date")
Ah okay, I got the clockwork mod recovery with Odin so am I good if I wanna flash an ics? And what's meant by double flash?

Okay. Here follow these instructions very well.
- Go to CWM recovery
- Go to backups and restore
- Backup current ROM (should take around 5 minutes)
- Download ICS ROM of your liking
- Put it on your phone (internal SD NOT external)
- Go back to CWM
- Wipe data
- Wipe cache
- Go to advanced, and then wipe dalvik cache there
- Flash the ROM
- Reboot
- It will be stuck at Samsung Logo with Cyanogenmod logo as well... I advise you to wait 30 seconds and THEN pull-out battery
- Put battery back on
- Reboot phone
- Go to Mounts and Storage
- Wipe system, data, and cache
- Flash the exact same ROM you flashed earlier
- Reboot
- SUCCESS!
Now, you might encounter APN Settings (data not working) problems.. I advise you to find the APN settings here on XDA (I'm on Virgin Mobile Canada so I cannot provide these.)
ALSO, if you run into problems with Google apps (I assumed you downloaded a ROM that already has them), download the "gapps" file. Link should be found on the OP of the ROM post you downloaded.
Have fun!

Hello I have gingerbread, but I bought it used and the guy had it rooted. So now the phone is always trying to update to ics but it can't because its rooted. All these popup messages are getting really annoying. So I just want to either update to ics or get a custom rom. Idk which one is better and I have no idea how to do either. Please help, thanks.
You should get rommanager and flash cwm recovery. Then donwload a ota that can be flashed with cwm and flash it. After that download the superuser zip to gain root again, flash it and you are set.
Good luck.

If you're happy with stock and dont need root, why not try to flash the stock JellyBean ROM?
if i do this, will it wipe everything off of my phone?

Yes it will wipe everything (apps, data) but NOT your sd card. If you have titanium Backup use that, I but I'm guessing you don't. The OP does say that it will wipe your phone also.

Hey everyone, I have a HTC One S that's rooted and using cyanogenmod 10. I have ROM Manager and I used the app to make a backup of the stock ROM. Yesterday I tried to restore the stock ROM and btw I performed a wipe of the data, cache, and davlik cache. However when I try to boot up the phone it goes into a boot loop. Any advice on the problem would be greatly appreciated.

Now, my tab is on Paranoid ROM v2.5. Everything OK and also ICS ok. But when i tried to flash Honeycomb, my tab got bootloop. Than I flash ICS firmware, its become OK again.
That's why I'm asking are there any ways to downgrade or what are preventing the downgrade process.
Thanks in advance

Okay so I bought a Blaze a few days ago and I was messing around with it and I rooted it. When I rooted it I flashed a ROM and when the ROM booted up and got to the welcome screen it instantly turned rebooted itself, so I let it boot up again but it constantly reboots. Then I went back to a backup of the stock ROM and it still does the same thing. So I followed a guide that updated me to the ICS update in hopes of it fixing it but it still does the same thing! Now I don't know what to do with it. I was hoping maybe someone can help or if this has happened to anyone? Thanks in advance

Yes, the miui we have has a link to racing's blue lightning. I would try miui or another ROM again, but make sure to format /system along with wiping data, cache, and davlik. Or use black hole wipe. If you don't have anything important on the internal SD (or back it up) it might be worth it to format the emmc also.
