Thanks Quarx, Epsylon3 and maniacc103 for all your hard work in CM7.
** Always start the procedures with 80% - full charge (don't worry if your battery die during the process, you can still go mcgyver =)
** Make a backup of your apk's, There's a lot of programs to do that (File Explorer, AndroZip, AppMonster, etc.). If you want to backup your configurations too, use Titanium Backup.
** If you have any problem, don't blame CyanogenMod Team, Quarx, Epsylon3, the FAQ or whatever. This ROM works, if it's not working for you, it's mostly because you used wrong versions or are doing something wrong. For real bugs, use github **
ALWAYS USE THE RECOMMENDED VERSIONS

1) What SBF version should I use when flashing CM7.1?
- You can use whatever Froyo (2.2.x) you want. I'm actually using CEE 3.4.2-179-2 as a base, but you can use SEA or any other.
2) How can I install CM7.1?
- Copy update-cm-7.1.0-11-Defy-signed.zip and gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip to your SD Card
- Enable USB Debugging
- Root via SuperOneClick
- Reboot
- Install 2ndInit Recovey, go to the app and click "Install 2ndInit Recovery" (use the latest version) button
- Disable USB Debugging
- Reboot, and in Bootmenu select Recovery -> [Custom Recovery] or [Latest Recovery]
- Select "wipe cache partition" then "wipe data/factory reset"
- Select "install zip from sdcard", "choose zip from sdcard", then select "update-cm-7.1.0-11-Defy-signed.zip"
- Select "choose zip from sdcard", then select "gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip"
** You can install any other patches that you have now, like Swype or GPS Fix **
- Select "+++++Go Back++++++" then "reboot your system now"
** Sometimes, during the first boot after installation, the bootanimation doesn't stop. If you dont see anymore a led activity, remove your battery and reboot
3) How to update from/to nightly's?
- Copy update-cm-7.1.0-11-Defy-signed.zip (or the nightly), gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip to your SD Card
- Reboot and go to Bootmenu (wait for led turn blue then press Volume Down). Enter Recovery -> Custom Recovery
- Select "wipe cache" then go to "advanced", select "wipe dalvik cache"
** If you have 100% battery, algo in advanced select "wipe battery stats" to calibrate your battery **
- Go back, select "install zip from sdcard", "choose zip from sdcard", then select "update-cm-7.1.0-11-Defy-signed.zip" (or the nightly)
- Select "choose zip from sdcard", then select "gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip"
4) My market is not downloading/installing any program. What to do?
- Just log in Google Talk
5) Flashed CM7.1 (or any other ROM) now i'm stuck at Motorola or Cyanogen logo. What I have to do?
- Go to Custom Recovery then clear cache. If the problem persists, you can try to wipe dalvik cache (in advanced) too. The next boot will take some time to build dalvik cache again. If you don't have Custom Recovery for some reason, power off your phone, press and hold Volume Down + Power to go to Stock Recovery (only to clear cache/wipe data). Use Volume Up + Volume Down to show the options at Stock Recovery.
- Some people related freeze on the first boot of CM7.1, just remove your battery ans try again.
6) Can I restore my phone to send it to warranty after flashing CM7.1?
- You can in these two situations
1 - You have a full SBF of your original ROM (for carriers that already released 2.2 is very easy to find one)
2 - You have a nandroid backup AND a fixed SBF of the version you need.
For a list of (fixed) SBF's you can check:
SBF - Service Flash - all files + fixed sbf + Bootloaders
[[sbf:defy]] And Developers
7) How to install CM7.1 and keep downgrade-ability? (Froyo or Eclair)
If you don't flash the full SBF, your downgrade-ablility is fine.
Here's the safe steps to install CM7.1 and keep your downgrade-ability:
- Copy nandroid backup of 3.4.2-179-2 CEE to your sdcard. Uncompress it in the folder clockworkmod/backup/ of your sdcard, create this if needed.
- Enable USB Debug
- Root via SuperOneClick
- Disable USB Debugging
- Install Defy 2nd Init
- Reboot to enter Bootmenu, then go to Custom Recovery
- In Custom Recovery, go to "backup and restore", then "Backup". This will take some time, your backup will be at /clockworkmod/backup. Copy it to a safe place.
- Still in recovery, go to "backup and restore", "restore", and select the nandroid backup of 3.4.2-179-2 CEE (not your backup!)
If you have MD5 mismatch error, try to rename the folder of the nandroid to something simple without spaces, like "nand"
- Reboot your system and immediately press and hold Volume Up to enter Bootloader Mode (if you couldn't enter, remove the battery, wait 10s, put it again with Power and Volume Up pressed)
- Flash Fixed SBF of 3.4.2-179-2 CEE via RSD Lite
Now go to question 2 and do all the process to install CM7.1.
If you want to go back to your original ROM
- Disable USB Debuging
- Copy your nandroid backup to your SD Card, put it in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup (must be a folder with simple name inside backup)
- Reboot phone in Bootmenu (Volume Down when the blue led lights at Motorola logo) then go to Custom Recovery
- Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache (in advanced)
- Choose "backup and restore", "restore", and select your eclair nandroid backup. If your backup doesn't show in this screen, is most likely you placed it in the wrong folder.
- Reboot your system and immediately press and hold Volume Up to enter Bootloader Mode.
6. Flash the Fixed SBF of your original ROM. For a list of (fixed) SBF's you can check:
SBF - Service Flash - all files + fixed sbf + Bootloaders
[[sbf:defy]] And Developers
8) Can't connect to my wireless network.
- Tap and hold the SSID of the network and select Forget. Try to configure the SSID again.

14) How to overclock/undervolt in CM7.1?
CM7.1 already comes with 1000/600/300 clock, but if you want to modify these settings or undervolt:
- Reboot and enter Bootmenu
- System -> Overclock
- Set your parameters and select [save] before exit.
Remember that if you experience freezes, reboots and other problems, OC/UV can be the cause. Try to disable in this situation.
Also, DON'T INSTALL SETVSEL!
15) My GoogleMaps (or other application that uses OpenGL) is freezing/irresponsive. What can I do?
Open terminal or adb shell and type these commands:
Code:
$ su
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
# echo sysctl -w vm.min_free_kbytes=4096 >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
# chmod 744 /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
# mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system

I think, after flashhing fix.zip need a reboot:
Quarx said:
Update to Beta5:
Before update you need install fix.zip and after reboot you can flash new version.
If you do not, then you get an error when installing the new version. And you will need to reflash with RSD.

Yes please change that. After flashing Fix.zip a reboot is absolutely necessary.

I'm on the US official Froyo() currently, and since the aGPS has been fixed, I'm planning to go for the CM7 made by Quarx.
Before I do, I've got a little concern. If I follow the normal procedures to flash CM7, am I able to go back to the Official Froyo I currently use? I ask because there is no SBF for this official US Froyo, there is only leaked version and the OTA.
you tuto is perfect , but the gapps has a new version , try update
boa mlk exelente topicuuu mas tu viu q o gapps ta velho saiu uma nova esse mes com o app do 2.3.4 se quiser o link pede

Item 7 of the FAQ. You will only need a fixed SBF version that matches the number of your original ROM, there`s no need to be the same ROM. These parameters will be overrided by the parameters in your nandroid backup (version and name of your original Froyo).

using 2nd Init Recovery, so nothing to do with locked bootloader
@antony.ps : nice tutorial
One question: How do I install Custom Recovery / Clockworkmod?!!
I am trying to do step 7 but I am stuck I am unable to install Bootmenu+Clockworkmod that Quarx provided. If I use Root Explorer to install, it will not install as after reboot I don't see the System Recovery app; I have tried installing via emulator as well but same result. (I dunno which folder to extract the files to. I have even copied to the root folder and the install.sh seemed to execute but after restart it dint work and weirdly the copied folder also vanished!)
I, however, managed to take a nandroid backup of my system using DEFY SD-Recovery. However, if I try to restore the "nandroid backup of 3.4.2-177" I get md5 mismatch and the process aborts NOTE: I cannot move folders if I use this app; so instead of clockworkmod/backup/ I have to use goapkrev/backup
I am unable to proceed unless I perform the restore. Can someone help me with step-by-step solution for installing Clockworkmod Recovery, and also 2nd Init / Bootmenu as that is needed for the next step? Thanks!

Since we're in the FAQ-topic here can you or someone else give a little explanation what 2nd Init actually does? I'm guessing it sort of circumvents some limitations by the bootloader.

This has been mentioned already about 1000 times by now on this forum but the simple solution is to remove all the spaces from the folder name. Easiest is to use short simple folder names such as "nand" or something else that makes sense to you.

So hello all I have problem with my games the new gameloft ones dosent save so i decided to reinstall cm7. Just to give it a try.
I used this while thinking i will do the same like an upgrade just with the same files. So i used the faq!
3) How to update from previous versions?
- Copy cm7.1.0-RC0-jordan-signed.zip, gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip to your SD Card
- Reboot and go to Bootmenu (wait for led turn blue then press Volume Down). Enter Recovery -> Custom Recovery

If you have problems with GPS after the update, try to delete the folder /data/location. Do it via Root Explorer, adb or terminal emulator (via terminal ignore the first and the last line):
But there is a problem.
When i enter to bootmenu i enter recovery ther is no such thing as custom recovery!!!!
there are 3 options stock latest and one more but not custom.
Please im new just got my defy on sunday and wanna reset the cm7 to see if it helps my problem.
Thanks you
Ernö
You have to enter into custom recovery, not into stock one.
CM7 includes a custom recovery + 2nd init. So, reboot your phone; wait for the led to turn blue, finally press volume down.
If you don't have any custom recovery, download defy 2nd init from market; you can also find it in this forum.
Its easy, just restart and go to that bootmenu and then to the custom recovery, wipe everything, and reboot. Remember that you will lose all your apps and data doing this
when i press volume down i get android bootmenu v0.9.1 defy
and in recovery i have these 3 options:
[Latest Recovery]
[Stable Recovery]
[Stock Recovery]
so how can i get the custom recovery? i have to use second init?
thanks!
im newbie but here is this
- Install 2ndInit Recovey Installer via File Manager, go to the app and click "Install 2ndInit Recovery" button. Wait for the led turn green.
- Disable USB Debugging
- Reboot (you will have to select Boot -> Normal in bootmenu)
- Reboot again, this time select Recovery -> [Custom Recovery]
- Select "wipe cache partition" then "wipe data/factory reset"
- Select "install zip from sdcard", "choose zip from sdcard", then select "cm7.1.0-RC0-jordan-signed.zip"
- Select "choose zip from sdcard", then select "gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip"
You can install any other patches that you have now, like Swype or GPS Fix
- Select "+++++Go Back++++++" then "reboot your system now"
so i have to boot into second init and there i can go to custom recovery right?
so i should do it as written here right?
thanks the answer.!!
Stock Recovery is stock. Latest recovery and stable recovery are both custom recoveries but the stable recovery is just that, more stable.
Just go for stable recovery.

There is certainly some difference between those two! one says to open RSD Lite and flash Nordic via stock recovery & the other one doesn't!
Which one 2 follow? & What are the difference?
Smh -.- u need to flash to nordic, root, install 2ndinit, boot into the recovery of 2ndinit, wipe and install nightly and then gapps.
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk
It depends.
My phone was on UK vodafone 2.2.2, with the 179-4 kernel. That being the case, I did not bother flashing nordic or CEE. If you do not already have a 179-4 then you need to get one and flash it on with RSDlite before you root and install 2ndinit and cyanogen.
So, what is the current software version of your phone?
No need of flashing new sbf. Both RC1 and RC1.5 update the kernel and modules so no worries.
Hey Guys I am currently running JRN84D MoDaCo custom Rom on my nexus how ever today I noticed an icon in the notification bar for System Update to 4.1 it says its downloaded and verified and ready to be installed.
What should I do?
i think u have to go back to stock image(rom) than update if u recive, this is update so is not going to wipe ur device
Do not accept the update when you're on a custom ROM.
It will not work.

I'm in the same situation,
My nexus is running JRN84D, with the CWM recovery, and rooted. The radio is I9250XXLF1. The OTA message keeps coming. I don't want to wipe to get on 4.1.1. What should I do?
1 - Flash the stock bootloader? where can i find it?
2 - Unroot? how?
3 - Flash another radio? which?
And try to apply the OTA or should I directly flash a 4.1.1 rom from CWM and just accept the wipe, in that case which rom do you recommend?
By the way, I got in 4.1 through this process: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28178320&postcount=2
Method 1: CWM 5.5.0.2 recovery already installed
1) Download takju JRN84D from here (this is Koush's repack) to your computer and rename (or delete) this file: /system/etc/install-recovery.sh. Use 7zip to do this, not WinZip or WinRar or whatever. This will prevent the ROM from overwriting CWM with the stock recovery. If you want to have the stock recovery so that future updates will install automatically, leave the ROM as is. (We all know that if you have CWM, you will have to install the update manually through CWM -- it will not install automatically, but it will install just the same, right? ) Note: Some users have reported that they could not flash the zip after deleting the install-recovery.sh file. If it doesn't flash for you after you deleted the file, just re-flash the unmodified zip.
2) Move the file to /sdcard on your phone.
3) Download the CWM-flashable version of the XXLF1 radio from here and the CWM-flashable version of the LC03 bootloader from here to /sdcard.
4) Backup your app data using Titanium Backup. Root is required for this step. Alternatively, if you do not have root, you could try using this, but no guarantees it will work.
5) Reboot your phone into CWM.
6) Select "wipe data/factory reset" and select "Yes -- delete all user data"
7) Select "wipe cache partition" and select "Yes - Wipe Cache"
8) Select "advanced" and select "Wipe Dalvik Cache" and select "Yes - Wipe Dalvik Cache"
9) Select "*****Go Back*****" to return to the main menu
10) Select "install zip from sdcard" and select "choose zip from sdcard" and navigate and select the bootloader file you downloaded, and flash it.
11) Select "install zip from sdcard" and select "choose zip from sdcard" and navigate and select the radio file you downloaded, and flash it.
12) Select "install zip from sdcard" and select "choose zip from sdcard" and navigate and select the JRN84D file you downloaded, and flash it.
13) Optional -- If you want root, flash one of the attachments the same way. (Either ChainsDD's Superuser or Chainfire's SuperSU.)
14) Go back to the main menu and select "reboot system now".
15) Done! Enjoy stock Jelly Bean 4.1
