Note 2 user here, but not long ago, I found an Inspire 4g smashed at the local boat launch ramp, stuck my SIM card in and miraculously still works. It is also already rooted but running a stock 2.3.3. I proceeded to back that up using CWM and then successfully flashed the latest supported CM, which was 7.x.
The only thing I am struggling with now is which version of google apps (gapps), to flash into CM 7? And where to get it.

Here: http://goo.im/gapps. Just choose the right one (self explanatory). And the latest is 7.2 which is Gingerbread 2.3.7
Thanks for that, I got it.
I was trying to search with the string: "gapps for htc desire 4g" and I got all kinds of stuff, including the goo.im download site that presented a list that was only good through 2.2.2. That search string was so direct, I didn't consider that any other variation on it would be any better.

Gapps aren't usually phone specific, they're Android version specific.

Never look by phone device. Always look by android version. In the case of CM, you can always search by CM version (i.e. CM7.2, CM 10, CM10.1, etc). This is because CM is a very popular choice for a custom rom (if for nothing more than to give it a try).

I've decided that I would love the customization stuff in Cyanogen7, so I'd like to root, flash and install a custom ROM. I'd love to have the customization of CM7 vs the stock Froyo I have from WIND. Right now, there is no crapware, and the phone is quite fast. The only thing that I wish worked is the Skype front camera, which is supposedly to work in Gingerbread. Apart from that, everything works great. I am afraid to lose the functionality, so I'd like if someone has the WIND LG with CM7, to try to answer if there are any issues with the following points:
* phone of course
* GPS, Google Maps, Market, Messaging
* both cameras, 1080p recording and HDMI output
* video talk in Skype
Also, feel free to leave a short feedback about CM7 and a recommendation. Thanks.
Skype front camera doesn't work in Gingerbread... GTalk video chat works on CM though.

Does that generally mean that there is no problem with the lack of Nvidia's code? Does that mean Microsoft's to blame?
Skype just needs updating to support nVidia camera
OK, I'm assuming all the above works. If the general procedure is to root, flash, install, when does the unlocking of the phone happen? Also, do you need to upgrade to 2.3 stock, before loading CM7, or ca you do it off 2.2?
Also, since no one has said anything about the points above, are there ANY bugs with CM7 or EB?
Also, is there a unified guide to custom ROM loading from stock?
Does everyone use this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060715 ?
Hello fellow WIND user.
I am using CM7 nightly build 123 on my G2X and almost everything works fine. Save for the camera issue stated earlier and the impossibility of getting a GPS lock. I have tried several 'fixes' posted in the forums for this issue but I can't seem to get GPS lock regardless.
I still recommend switching away from stock ROM because it grants your device more flexibility and possibly a longer battery life.
Rooting and installing a custom ROM does not unlock your phone. You will still need to obtain an unlock code from either WIND (free after 3 months I think) or the web (for a price).
You do not need to upgrade your Android OS before flashing. The OS is part of the ROM you will be flashing onto your device. You will however, need to root, backup, and wipe your device. Just follow the guides on the forum which you have found.
If the wind version is the same procedure-wise, rooting is a redundant step. Installing CWM via nvflash does not require root. Once that is installed, you may backup, restore, and flash to your heart's content.

So, intuitively speaking:
1. Install CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847
I'm not familiar with the terminology, can you point out the helping threads about backing up, restoring and flashing?
Also, can the whole procedure be done on Linux, or do I have to install VBox?
You can do it from Linux. You just type some commands in a terminal to push an img file over to the phone.
Backup/Restore is a menu option in the clockwork recovery. Pretty straight forward stuff.
Flashing just on your phone just entails downloading the rom file (zip format) to your SD card and going in clockwork recovery and selecting it (flash zip from SD) via the menu.
Quick steps
-NVFlash
-Backup
-Download CM7 to SD
-Flash CM7
After you flash CM7 you'll have root access thus allowing you to use easier methods of downloading and flashing using Rom Manager

And by backup, you mean this? source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060715
Perform a Nandroid Backup of your Phone (Optional but suggested before you flash any ROM or make any O/S changes):
1. Bootup to NvFlashed Clockwork Recovery using the button method.
2. Choose backup/restore and run a backup.
3. This will save the backup to your internal or external SD Card depending on which version of CWM you selected in the One-Click App.

In short, go for it. I bought the phone back in late June, had CM7 running on it a few hours later, and haven't looked back. I've currently got nightly #123 along with Faux's undervolted DS battery driver kernel and am very happy with the responsiveness, the added features, and so on. There's been a slowdown in nightlies recently due to a problem with the repository, but the features being prepared in the interim will continue to refine what is already a great phone. Battery life is way, way up compared to stock, thanks to refinements in the kernel and using SetCPU profiles to cut power use when the screen is off.
Messaging is fine, although I'm using Handcent rather than stock. Maps is fast (GPS aside) and the camera is good (again, using aftermarket, currently Vignette). I've only recently begun to use video talk - Skype doesn't support this phone yet but Google Talk now works. There are some issues, of course. The GPS continues to be slow - locks range from 10-20 seconds outdoors in an open space to virtually never indoors (in places where my older, cheaper phone did lock).

Yeah, yeah... CM7
Honestly, this ROM goes over the roof when it comes to customization.
I have a D2G and I used to run Froyo-based CM7, but since the Gingerbread version is further along in development I went back to Gingerbread by SBFing. So I'm on 4.5.608 and neither of the two times I tried to flash CM7 did it work. I had to SBF twice. The first time, I got the file from Rootzwiki, and the second time I got the "7.1 Stable" file from Rom Toolbox. I used the same Google Apps package on both attempts.
So my questions are:
1. Can a Google Apps package get you stuck at the boot logo?
2. If the problem is my file, where can I go to get a good one?

In order for a Gingerbread ROM to boot it needs the Gingerbread Kernel. Are you booting with a white Motorola logo or a red one?
If it's still white and you're trying to boot Gingerbread CM7 it may be worth it to try to grab the .608 Gingerbread kernel from the TBH hack and flash that in. I've attached it to this post just in case.

7.1 Stable is probably the “official” CM7 build 7.1.0, from the cyanogenmod site.
That one is for Froyo (i.e. can only be installed over 2.4.x stock firmware).
As for RootzWiki builds… did you wipe data prior to or after installing the ROM via CWM?

Yeah, the reason is didn't download the stable one first is because I thought as far as anyone had gotten was 7.0 nightlies. I'm just baffled right now as to why I can't get the Gingerbread CM7. I hate stock haha
Before I flash, I backup, reboot, factory reset, wipe data, cache, dalvik, and even battery stats. Then I install CM, then gapps package, then reboot.
Thanks for the help guys, I appreciate it!
Could you specify the file names for both CM7 and gapps you're using?
And you're wrong about RW builds being 7.0; they use the current CM7 source tree, and the “stable 7.1.0” is basically one of old Froyo builds by revnumbers.
Actually, I got everything from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1297517.html
I used the latest version "update-cm-7.1.0-DROID2WE" and the "gapps-gb-20110828".
The second time I used the CM file from Rom Toolbox and the same Google Apps package. So if a bad gapps package can eff you over, that's probably it. I just don't want to waste my time and try again before I have some xda-genius opinions haha
This is the Froyo-only “official” build. It will never work with a Gingerbread kernel.
As for ROM Toolbox, I have no idea. The gapps package seems to be the right one, however.
Head to http://ez-netsolutions.com/synik4l/x13thangelx/D2G/cm/ for the latest build of CM7 for the D2G. x13thangelx is currently the lead developer working on this project.
Thanks a lot!!!!!! You're the best haha I'll let you know if it works.
Refer to this thread on RootzWiki for more information: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/3069-dev-threaddroid-2-global-cm7-with-gingerbread-leak-kernel/; note that the opening post hasn't been updated since forever, so you won't find the current build there.
And use this thread if you have any questions: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/4922-cm7-for-droid2-global-users-thread/
Not necessary haha, but I got it and it's working and beautiful and every setting has been adjusted and I'm super happy again!=D You're my hero.
Hello there.
I would like to ask for your good help restoring my Nexus S. I'm actually really exhausted looking for answers and tried downloading programs (e.g. One Click Stock) already. I wouldn't try to poke you guys if I hadn't reached dead end. Painstakingly exhausted for the last 3 days plus the slow connection we have here.
Using One Click Stock by Michael Peerman, I'm stuck without a signal since it says that I'm on Sprint. Everything works except that I'm always without signal.
My phone is under Globe Telecommunications Philippines. Build Number GRJ22. Currently it is in Gingerbread 2.3.4.
I won't bother rooting it again. I just want a simple droid without the extra benefits of a rooted phone.
Any help pointing me to the right direction would be really appreciated.
just flash a stock rom! and that would make a stock nexus s! and if you want even more you can lock the bootloader again!! and about the signal try flashing another radio!

http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommana...s&name=Stock Images&deviceName=Google Nexus S
Hello There.
Thanks for the hot tip. I got it all back to stock.
I did was root the phone again,
installed ClockworkMod. > Mount USB to PC > on the clockworkmod folder I created new folder "backup". Then paste the Stock Rom.
Reboot to Recovery then install from zip.
Voila! It worked.
Very much thanks to everyone.
Stock is different baseband version
I had recently flashed an ICS rom and could not get my mobile data working after trying every single radio for my model I9020A.
So I used rom manger to download 2.3.3 stock GB as described in this thread. Now it is showing I have baseband version I9020XXXB1 and when I go to system updates it says my system is up to date. How do I update to newest version of GB and show the correct baseband version of my phone?
I have a Rogers Samsung Infuse rooted with the CNA Jellybean ROM. I really liked the look and style of the screen and this is why I chose it. Here's the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1830275 And right off the get go, I had a few issues with this ROM such as missing certificates so I was unable to connect to my google account, there was no Google Play app, and many other little things. so I decided to try out Cypher ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859208 But before I started I noticed in the instructions it was saying at the end to flash Gapps (google apps) so I flashed only the Gapps into the CNA (without Cypher) and I had almost everything working. I'm in love now but I do have one issue and its that the WIFI keeps turning off for no reason. and this results in my phone using 4g instead without warning. Any advice?
Hey guys, I'm new to the community and I just wanted to post my 1st experience with rooting etc and follow up with a few questions!
A bit of background on my device: I've had my NS for just over 3 years now and I just recently decided (when I bought my Xperia V) that I'd like to play around with it a bit. To my knowledge, my device was one of the 1st in the country and a test dummy, and I purchased it from a friend who was working and testing for Samsung at the time. It was not linked or affiliated to Vodacom (who, if I'm correct, was the only network provider to offer the NS in S. Africa) or any other carrier for that matter. So basically due to the lack of link to any carrier, I've never received any updates or notifications to update, and have been running my stock 2.3.5 for 3 years!
Anyway, my story from yesterday was a huge learning experience. I decided that I wanted to root my NS and possibly try out a new kernel before deciding whether or not I wanted to install a custom ROM. I followed this link and managed to root my NS, install CWM recovery and everything was working pretty well using UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2034264
However I think I flashed the wrong kernel (marmite_v9.1) or for some other reason messed up, keep in mind that I was still running my stock GB which the phone came with. Either way, I was stuck on the Google boot screen for more than an hour. I fired up into fastboot and then recovery, but couldn't boot from there (I just realized that I DIDN'T make an actual backup ). To top it off I wiped the device (another great idea) and the device wouldn't boot into fastboot, giving me a "fastboot mode no boot recovery img" message. Somehow through flashing the CWM I managed to get the device into the correct fastboot mode, and eventually after digging for a few hours I managed to find this (stock?) soju GB ROM download, and managed to flash the boot and system images using fastboot, for some reason " fastboot flash userdata data.img" refused to flash. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478820
Anyway, I managed to get back to GB 2.3.5, but get this, after about half an hour on charge, I was given an update to ICS 4.0.4 which I obviously jumped at, and to top it off, I also have JB 4.1.1 available. My NS has finally seen the light of ICS and JB!!
I have a few questions for those who have used ICS and JB though. On the NS, does stock JB provide a notable difference in battery life and speed? With it's hardware, is it capable of handling ICS and JB effectively?
Also, which version of marmite would be compatible with ICS? From what I've picked up, marmite 9.1 is compatible with JB, but is it compatible with ICS too, and if not, can someone please point me in the right direction for kernel(s) which work with ICS (not just marmite).
Second, are the Oxygen and Rasbeanjelly ROMs still up to date? When searching for Oxygen for NS on the forum, the most recent version I find is this which was posted over a year ago: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1605273

When checking out fitsnugly.euroskank, I don't see anything for the NS. . But maybe I'll consider a shot at the PA and CM ROMs and try them both in a few days
Finally, and this 1 is way over my head, but how does CWM work? If I do a wipe before flashing a ROM/kernel, won't that wipe my backups? Do I need to partition my sd before wiping, or does CWM do that for me, and if it not, does wiping not touch the backups?
Anyway, thanks in advance, and I hope I haven't asked too many questions which have been answered before. If I have, please bare with me and point me to the correct discussion(s) and I'll go bug some other people.

Follow the link in my signature for a ROM review... I've heard debates over the best versions for battery life, but JB in my opinion is far superior to ICS... Oxygen is a great ROM, but it won't get more updates and kernels/mods ect.. Are harder to obtain.. It may be a bit challenging to do, but I'd use 4.1.2 JB (follow my chart) or skip to 4.3 JB (Mokee or Slimbean)

There are stutters here and there. You need to overclock to obtain "optimal" ICS and JB performance. JB is smoother than ICS.
