Perfect guide to install cyanogen mod 7

Cyanogen mod is a great one. I installed on 24/5 and it took me 1 day to install that. Because i made a mistake installing 1.7 2nd init .
I don't want any others to get into trouble by a small mistake.
STEPS:
1.Install RSD lite.
IT IS GOOD TO FACTORY RESET AND WIPE CACHE ON STOCK RECOVERY BEFORE YOUR FLASH.
2.Download an froyo sbf .I recommend this ( http://depositfiles.com/en/files/tjnmh6d98 ) 3.4.3-11 "The latest 2.2.1".
3.Flash it on keeping your phone in boot loader mode by pressing volume up +power .
5.Dont unplug your phone until you get a good result (PASS).
4.Now skip or configure motoblur and keep your phone ready.
5.Now download gingerbreak.apk and Root your phone (www.mediafire.com/?it8h9z1dbta50i0 ) v 1.20 is the latest
6.Download cyanogen mod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1033654 )
7.Download Google apps (http://goo-inside.me/gapps/ )
8.Copy both the zip files on to your sd card
NOW U HAVE ROOTED UR PHONE AND YOU ARE NEARLY READY TO INSTALL CM7!!
"DONT DOWNLOAD AND USE 2ND INIT V 1.7 BECAUSE CM7 WONT WORK ON IT"
9.Download 2nd init v 1.4.2 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032212 )
10.Install recovery on your phone and reboot twice fully till your home screen
11.When you reboot you will be automatically taken into recovery.
IF RECOVERY DOESNT COME THEN PRESS VOLUME DOWN BUTTON WHEN BLUE LIGHT COMES DURING BOOTUP
IF U ARE CAUGHT IN A BOOT LOOP THEN GO INTO STOCK RECOVERY AND WIPE YOUR DATA AND CACHE
EVEN IF U ARE IN BOOTLOOP U CAN ACCESS RECOVERY AND BOOT INTO BLUR
12.Go into recovery --> custom recovery and format data and cache and wipe cache
13.Install zip ---->Choose zip from sd card-----> cyanogen mod7 zip file
DONT WIPE OR FORMAT DATA OR CACHE AFTER INSTALLING CM7
14.Install google apps (gapps) zip by the same method and reboot your phone
15.Go to boot ---->2nd init
NOW YOU WILL GET CM7 LOGO.........WAIT FOR A FEW MINUTES UR SCREEN WILL DIM ...........
NOW U WILL BE TAKEN TO YOUR HOME SCREEN OF CM7!!!!!!
IF UR GETTING CM7 LOGO THEN U R !! PASS !!

use only 1.4 guys

i tried this it didn't work for me..i cant start it in 2init it say not in directory...and wen i boot normal it stuck on moto logo

Step 1. RSD Lite 4.9 only worked for me

I think you have wiped your cache and formatted your data and cache after installing cm7 rite??...........me too had this once..........u have to format and wipe only one time that is before installing cm7.
Start again

Anyone had toouble installing .........I think lordlos installed it.....

CM7
any official cm7 ????

Is everything working already here. I mean do you still need to download other fixes? can you still revert to froyo? Thanks

It's been awhile since I installed CM7 beta6. I followed this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054447
It says:
10. go into custom recovery and wipe data/cache
11. go back to main custom recovery menu and select "install zip from sdcard" then go to "choose zip from sdcard"
12. select the cyanogenmod 7 zip
13. go back to recovery menu and repeat step 10, then select the Gapps zip and install (google apps)​
It sounded not logical to me to wipe again after the update but can't remember if I really did that 2nd wipe back then. It's contradictive to this guide. Can someone please explain?

Very good! Congratulations

ok i flashed a swype using the swype from another thread and i get 2 errors: ndroid.process.media and com.android.phone
and have to FC.
so i re install cm7 from step 1. and restored using titanium back up. and still, the same error occured. any ideas?

I guess you restored some system apps and/or settings. That will typically result in this kind of fc's

[Q] help, i cant flash any custom roms

htc desire hd, so,I had gingerbread 2.3.3 and software # 2.50..., i used advance android hack to hack an root the phone, and apparently everything went good up until i installed the custom rom, it went to the htc welcome screen and stayed there for like 30sec and then it restarted again and again by itself, so i stock restart the phone and put the original rom back, then i tried downgrading the rom to froyo 2.2 and software # 1.32...... i hacked it and root it again but after i installed the custom rom it happened exactly the same it just restarts and restarts by itself to the point where i have to take the battery out ,
I"ve got s-off by the way
any help would be much appreciated

True but I just don't want to give up, custom roms look so nice that I have to find out how to do it, if you find out before me just let me know I'll let you know if I do

try this one. after downgrading, make an ota update then root it again with ace advance hack kit...

hope this helps
i dont have htc desire( i had neo v) . but i faced the same problem once.
try wiping evrything off before installing the rom
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
wipe dalvik cache
Format /system (in mounts and storage)
Format /cache
Format /Data
good luck

did you factoryreset, delete cache, dalvic and battery stats befor you flashed the rom? it sounds like you are bootlooping.

first if your using cmw or rom manager to install from get rid of that CRAP!! If your s-off on stock rom get 4ext recovery installed on phone first. Then try installing custom from with it.
1. Factory wipe
2. Wipe cache
3. Wipe dalvik
4. Format partitions (except SD card)
5. Format SD card (optional for total wipe)(Only if you want full fresh install but copy everything on SD to PC so you don't lose important stuff)
6. Mount USB (should only see one folder called 4ext)
7. Move rom to SD card
8. Disconnect USB
9. Install from SD card
10. Choose zip from SD card
11. Flash
12. Reboot
All steps done from 4ext recovery so do not exit recovery till all steps are complete.

[Q] Help unbricking soft bricked phone

Help
I have had my phone rooted for 3 months now so i decided to go to the next level and install a custom rom. I installed cynagenmod on my device via clock work mod.
Just to let you know i have CLOCKWORKMOD ASWELL
As i did it it installed correctly until i booted it and realized i was in a boot loop.
the cynagen mod would freeze half way through the boot.
I have tried odin but i'm not sure if i'm doing it wrong, is there any other software or things u can do. Is it possible to do it with clockwork mod, i had tried the update thing but it aborts and i can seem to get a rom that i can use that would help or is there a will load as a zip. is there any thing that you guys have done that unbricked ur wonder that you could share ?
Thank you for your time

just suggest., reboot to CWM and wipe data, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache.
if it can't solve the problem you should to flash custom ROM again via CWM and if it can't solve your problem again, just back to Stock.

Go to cwm
Wipe data
Wipe cache
Flash download zip custom rom
Flash gapps
And enjoy it

Unfortunately installed Gapps :(

Actually i was using the Rom which doesnt need any gapps [aosp-4.2.2-20130307-vision]...accidently i installed the gapps from somewhere and now whenever i turn on my mobile the pop up says that google frame work not working.
Is there anyway to get rid of this?
{Using desire Z with aosp-4.2.2-20130307-vision rom}

Answer
You have the following options :-
1- Try reflashing the ROM from recovery over the current one (i.e without data wipe etc) .. If it solves your problem , good for you
2- If the above step does not help ... download Titanium Backup & Backup all your USER apps ... make sure you cross out Google Play sotre services etc ... just the user apps installed..
& start fresh .. i.e Data + Cache + Dalvik Wipe .. fresh install of the ROM .. & Restore all your USER apps.
Other then these 2 options , Even if you do manage to find a solution , it would leave some FC bugs that would later come up , As far as i know !

Need help to install custom rom

Hello,
I don't know why my lg g3 phone doesn't want boot on custom rom.
I have the LG G3 d855 model, 16gb memory and here are my procedure to install every custom rom :
1. Flash Stock ROM using LGUP (the version of the firmware is not important but the possibility to root is)
2. Install KingRoot and get root
3. Install AutoREC and enter to the recovery
8. Flash Recovery TWRP 3.1.0-2
9. Reboot to the new recovery
10. ADVANCED WIPE (wipe cache, dalvik cache, data and SYSTEM)
11. Flash baseband 21C
12. Flash CUSTOM rom
13. Wipe cache and dalvik cache
14. Flash Gapp
15. Wipe cache and dalvik cache
16. Reboot
I think I did nothing bad...
but the phone does not start and it stays at the initial logo screen (not the LG logo, but the custom rom logo). I waited over 10 minutes to boot but nothing. Even though I install the identical rom again or install an anoter rom, each time the same issue.
This happens with all custom rom (xenonhd, resurrection remix, and now lineageOS)
I can use and boot on stock rom but each time I want to install a custom rom, my phone doesn't want to boot. The phone display stays at the initial rom logo screen.
It seems that I am alone to have this problem.
I don't know why and I search everywhere to find out the solution...
PS : My phone never restart by itself. I never have bootloop with my phone when I using stock rom and same with custom rom..
The problem is the boot with a custom rom. The phone don't want to boot and stay on logo loading...
Any suggestion may be help.
Thank you.

1. Once you installed TWRP you don't have to go back to stock to switch roms. From then on you can just download zips and flash them.
2. You need to delete everything (including system) except internal and external storage ( so you can still flash the zip for xceed, otherwise you will delete it). Remember that you will lose all your apps including your data with it. You can backup them with titanium backup tho. Pictures and video's will still be there as they are stored on the internal or external storage.
3. You also need to flash the GAPPS package after flashing rom, for xceed (7.1.1), pick nano (ARM)
4. Wipe cache and dalvik after flashing and reboot.
5. Make a backup before you do so !!!!!!
Good luck.

Hello,
1. I think that but with specific rom, some people tell us to flash stock rom before flashing a custom rom. eMMC bug related ?
2. Deleting the system changes nothing because the system is wiped when I flash the rom, right ?
3. if the rom boot first then I will install Gapps. Else, I don’t install because the rom doesn’t want to boot.

1. Well .. I've been switching between fulmics,xceed,rr, .. etc without any problem so no, there is no need to go back to stock everytime.
2. Try it, you won't be able to boot until you flash a new rom, but it could help. That's why you take a backup in the first place. It is more 'clean' and if you don't try it you won't know.
3. Sometimes you have to flash gapps directly after the rom or you will be in for a bad time if you do afterwards.
Once you have TWRP recovery installed it's the easiest thing ever to flash a new rom. Make sure your zip files are downloaded okay. Download the MD3 to check it. Try to download via MEGA app or so, because browsers downloads tend to have errors sometimes.
Apart from that. Don't root via kingroot. They have had some suspicious cases where malware was installed on the phone when rooting.
If nothing's works. Go back to full stock through KDZ, root wit your PC, install TWRP via autorec, go to recovery, wipe everything, install modem 21C, install rom and gapps, wipe cache, reboot. Don't try anything other than that.

I have the same problem

Hello,
I have a question.
Can you give me a gapp 100% compatible with all custom rom with android 7.1.2, because i think opengapp are not reliable. Maybe the gapp will cause my issue and the rom won't boot.
Can i use this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...isited-slim-gapps-6-0-7-0-unofficial-t3462088 ?
I always use PICO version of gapp
Thank
