thanks bro...i tried to install i have the gingerbread on the phone and it just keeps forceclosing...
seems idiot proof...but i guess not.. click on it asks if you wanna install and then click yes... then force close..

Has anyone tried the CyanogenMod for the EVO?

I was thinking about installing this mod. I saw it running very smoothly on an HD2 dual-boot a friend of mine has.
Is there anyone running the latest version of this image? If so are there any hardware issues? Does the 4G still work? Does it make coffee now?
Thanks,
Nick
I don't think you'll have much luck here. I don't think anyone around here is running cm on their EVO's. Is he even working on a version for the EVO?

It's okay, just do the 2.2 OTA and then root from there. I think it's pretty painless, I know there's a thread about it somewhere . . . can't find it right now.

Thanks Laydros,
My friend just told me that his HD2 just went to sleep and he had to reboot so it is surely not stable yet on the HD2. I would still be willing to try it on my EVO if anyone else has tried it first.
The UI looks pretty nice with a draggable menu at the bottom for multiple home row buttons.

yeah i know right? lol
i think what you have to do is flash a 2.2 rom, and while its installing, yank the battery. this will take you to the froyo debug screen and ask if you want to flash a cyanogen mod.
edit: ok that was a joke, I have to say that because I know there are people that will try it! sorry...

I like how on your 2nd post, after making what has to be in the top 5 mind boogling stupid questions I have seen on here, you act like you really did ask a valid question.
Don't tell me you are a nuclear scientist, I won't believe it. I would need credentials.

So explain to me how my question was stupid? I got a response from you apparently. Do you make a habit of flexing your intelligence on "stupid" postings?
This could very well make you a stupid person.
Read! Have you even looked at any posts at all here? Or did you just post your question and only focus on it? Seriously man, you are getting bashed here sooooo bad. Take ten seconds and look at other posts, either here in q and a or in the development section. Just trying to save you some pain.

The question is somewhat puzzling.
I thought it was a simple question.
I got every tom **** and harry jumping in to say something. Yet no one can answer the question. Maybe I need to create my own forum just for dumb people like me. O wait a minute XDA beat me to it.

Thanks, I spent five minutes searching. What did you find before you advised me to "READ!" and search?
Don't advise me to search unless you know for sure that I missed something. Your guessing there is a better thread and calling me stupid for not finding it.
Again, has anyone successfully gotten this mod on their EVO? If there is another thread talking about Cyanogen Mod 6 on EVO then direct me.
Dude, there's a thread in development dedicated to the RC with thousands of replies. I think we can all safely say that at least one other person has tried it. The water is safe. Hop in, but don't forget your life jacket. I'm sure you'll need it.
And before you complain that we're not helpful... no, the 4G doesn't work. Your mms may not work either.

If you can, I'd like to have the live wallpaper as well when your done, so PM me it after you have it tested working? I'd make it myself but its 4AM and I'm wiped out. haha.
Though if Thomas wants to test you, I advise you also find it yourself in the ROM and confirm that you found it by PMing him the path of it. That way you do his test of finding it yourself. You just don't have to make the gif since I already did. Haha.

im going to reroot it with the z4root app that not the issue i want to put a cook up rom on here but my phone cant connect to my pc so i been using dropbox i only can get stock rom for now until i can get my phone to connect to my pc it cant never find it i even bought 3 different usb an i install the samsung drivers an they dont want to install on my computer
why are you making multiple threads about the same thing?
Yeah man...just use Odin and go back to stock D118...fairly easy.
@ luvjones305
I would've expected someone who has been here almost a year to know how to search or at least not to spam the forum with reposts.
The "official update" will probably suck anyways. I would just wait until one of the developers has a ROM ready. I'm sure it wont be long
uh huh
first of all yea i signed up a year ago it don't mean im on here 24 hours like i don't have a life an if you cant help don't post nothing on here go cry some were else an i already search through here
It is physically painful to read your posts, I mean come on "yea"? Seriously? And that wouldn't even be such a big deal if you weren't a total prick to everyone, whether they were legitimately trying to help you or not. I am hard pressed to think of anyone who is anywhere near as big a prick as you manage to come across as (assuming you're actually not a total prick when not protected by the anonymity of the "interwebs").

So that means the forums are segregated now? Gotta stay with your own kind and can't look at what's going on with other devices? I'm all over the sgs family, nexus boys, general, android and ot. It's kinda nice seeing dev from all over. Integration is good.
I don't deny that, just trying to avoid the off chance someone flashes a Rom not for their Galaxy S variant and has a "DOH!"moment
Haha hell no man. I've already spent the 2 bucks at radio shack for my jig. Only had to use it once. I mostly just trawl the themes and apps for other sgs's but I love watching people loose their minds when an ota hits like the op here. Lots of craziness in general for yall right now.
You should see the n1 now. 2.3 dropping for those guys and they have one thread about it, over 150 posts, and only two people on stock to pick it up. That's how it should be.
Edit nvm, they got 3

Trying t root SPH-D700

Ok I paid a guy to root my phone and he wasnt able to.. he was using ginger break 1 click solution from the phone..
so it didnt work..lol im out the money.. and i still need to do it..
here is the info on about phone..
Firmware version
2.6.35.7
build number
GingerBread EI22
ok I need a dummys guide.. some thing straight forward please on the steps i need to get super user and rooted.. I need to tether my phone to my laptop and im not able to as of right now.. a custom rom on my phone would be nice to lol..
thanks
Wrong sub-forum. This is development for developers. Next time post in General or Q&A. Go to General and do a search for "rooting EI22 OTA" without the quotes and you will see the how to thread in the list.

First you need to locate odin 1.8. Then install the samsung drivers for the galaxy s. Next download this Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?opnq0n0pau8cu01. Now open up odin, put the tar you got in PDA. Next turn your epic completely off (pull battery then put back in) and then plug your epic in and make sure ONLY auto reboot is checked on odin. Now hit start on odin and wait. Now when it is done, your phone will be 'rooted'. Now you can download 'superuser' from the market.
Next I reccomend installing a ROM. A good one for starters is mostly stock which you can find in the development section. Put the zip on your sd card. Now shut.down your phone. Next hold down volume down, camera and power until you get a recovery screen. Next use the volume keys to navigate to install zip from sd card and press camera to select. Now do the same with choose zip and choose mostly stock. Now hit yes and wait. After that is done, use the back arrow to go back and choose reboot. This boot will take a while...
Now your phone will be way better than that **** that didnt give you your money would have made it.
If this worked for you, I would appreciate a thanks or donation.
That rom contains a bunch of fixes. Also I reccomend doing the same thing you did with mostlystock with the samurai kernel.
You guys are too nice to these idiots. Not a clue on how to root or rom, and posting in odd places. Have fun bricking your epic, jr.
