[FAQ] Cyanogenmod 7 by Quarx

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 **

- 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 **

- 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.

- Go to http://beta.swype.com, (create a account if needed), download the Swype Beta and install it
- Open Applications -> Swype Installer and follow the instructions on the screen
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'm a newbie, so any help to complete this FAQ will be welcome =)
And sorry for my english =S

The kernl of CM7 in Quarx's is Nordic , mean 3.4.2-177.5 not 3.4.3

3) How to update from Beta 4.0/4.1?
- Copy Fix.zip, CM7 and Google Apps to your SD Card.

- There's no need to wipe data/cache!
- Select "install zip from sdcard", "choose zip from sdcard", then select "Fix.zip"
- Select "choose zip from sdcard", then select "update-beta5-cm7.1.0-03.05.11-Defy.zip"

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 created tutorial to install CM7 and keep the downgrade-ability to eclair.
in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13527057&postcount=3
maybe you can create that tutorial too in this thread.

I think we should better start a wiki that way everybody can contribute
Can we create pages on the XDA Wiki? Dunno how to but I think that's easier for everyone!

we have a wiki here:

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).
FAQ Updated to Beta 5.1 (thanks Quarx!) and 2nd Init Recovery Installer 1.4 (thanks pedrodh!)

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.

CM7 help

Hi guys,
got problems with cm7
HOWTO
to flash cm7 rom you have to take 3 steps (after unpacking the 7z archive)
step 1 - copy update.zip and GAPPS ADDON to sdcard
step 2 - flash new kernel (always use the kernel provided in CM7 / it is incompatible with stock ROM)
ON PC - run fastboot flash boot boot.img (an black window will open and will stay open untill kernel is flashed)
ON PHONE - put phone in fastboot mode (power off then press lower right key and plug usb cable) and phone LED will light BLUE
step 3
- when phone is booting (FreeXperia Logo) press volume down key several times to enter recovery
- choose apply update from sdcard and select rom
- choose apply update from sdcard and select GAPPS
- wipe device
- reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
have i to unpack GAPPS ADDON file o just put it into sd card as it is?
on recovery i can find a list of "no" and just update.zip (that i guess is the ROM, isn't it?). nothing more, no GAPPS. any ideas on what i'm doing wrong? thanks
Cavin

You need to copy both .zip files to the SD card (CM7 and gapps) and flash them in recovery. Do not unpack any of the files, unless you want to make modifications to them.
In recovery, choose "install zip from SD card" option, select the CM7 file first, wait for the flash to complete, then go to "install zip..." again, and select the gapps file.
Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache (this last one is under the "advanced" menu in recovery), then reboot.
Better to do all this with full battery, to avoid drain issues.

The screen is like this
-No
-No
-No
-No
-No
-No
-No
-No
-Yes - Install /sdcard/update.zip
-No
-No
-No
i had to rename update-cm-7.1.0-XperiaArc-LT15i-KANG-signed.zip as update.zip and works, but grapps misses.

Windmobile LG Optimus 2x
I am trying to upgrade my Windmobile LG Optimus 2x. So I rooted the phone. Then I used ROM Manager from ClockworkMod. I chose the option "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and then I have a problem: the phone keeps rebooting. Eventually I removed the battery and tried turning on again and it booted. It went back to the way it was when I bought the phone. All applications were gone. I tried one more time and same thing happened.

Now turn off the phone
Put the phone into Bootloader Mode (turn the phone on by pressing the "vol up" + "Pwr")
Wait for the drivers to install
Flash SBF to the phone
No more returning to stock rom! (;
Cyanogenmod 7.2.0 (Gingerbread)
MultiBoot (Pre-Installed)
MultiBoot Manager (Pre-Installed)
Just enough to recover and create a multibooting system or flash another system
How to use MultiBoot?
Systems are located at /sdcard/multiboot/
Create a folder called CM9 and place three .img files inside (system, data, cache)
Pre-Compiled images are attached below
To install a Virtual System...
Go to Bootmenu (vol down on power up blue light)
Select Multiboot
Select Recovery
Select Stable Recovery
Select the virutal system you are working on (CM9?)
Install the rom you want to multiboot
Now to boot the system you go back to the bootmenu and select "boot"

No he can't because he will get status 7. He will first have to flash the kernel of eXiztenz rom and then flash the rom.

Install v1 first. v1.3.5 and v2.0.5 are updates to the ROM, not the entire ROM.
So install V1.
Then Flash V1.3.5
Then Flash v2.0.5
Edit: V1.3.5 link is not available in the ROM section. You will get that as OTA update when You flash v1 and connect to WiFi.

So I will consider that You are rooted and are on Sony Stock Jelly Bean 6.2.B.1.96 and have a cwm installed.
Download the v1 file and Copy it to Your Phone. Boot into the cwm, wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache. Remember, don't wipe sdcard!! Install the zip. Boot the device. Enter all Your data and let it settle a bit. Don't yet install Your apps or restore Your data.
You can check the camera now. Only the superior mode doesn't mode doesn't work in this ROM, rest all modes of Camera work, and believe Me when I say, You can take great pics on manual mode too. Even if then You don't like the camera, You can flash the stock camera via cwm, no other things are needed to be done. Then when You are connected to wifi, You get a notification that You have an update for the ROM. Let it download. It won't show any progress bar while downloading, it just displays that Your update is being downloaded, so don't freak out when You don't see anything progress. Then after download is complete (52.1 MB), again reboot into cwm and install the zip in /sdcard/OTA-Updater/download and clear cache and dalvik. Don't clear data now. Then again boot and let it settle. You can either download v2.0.5 from OTA or directly download from website and then flash it via cwm and again clean dalvik and cache. Done.

Okay, I would recommend You read more about CWM. Here is a link about it: CWM TUT
Then follow the following instructions:
1. Download the ROM. It should be a zip file.
2. Copy the downloaded ROM to the storage card.
3. Take backup of all Your apps, contacts and sms. Nothing will happen to Your internal memory data(music, photos etc). Still I recommend You backup it as You are new to this.
4. Power your phone off and reboot it into recovery. To do this, power on the phone and keep on pressing volume up key. If the led is blue, you have entered the CWM. Once in recovery, you can navigate its menu using the volume up and volume down hardware keys and to select the option You have to press power key. You are now on the main recovery menu. It will look something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
5. Select the option ‘wipe data/factory reset’. You will be prompted to confirm this action. Select “Yes – Delete all user data”. This will delete only Your apps and the data stored by apps, it will not delete anything from Your internal memory.
6. From the main recovery menu, select ‘wipe cache partition’. You will be prompted to confirm this action. Select ‘Yes – Wipe Cache’.
7. From the main recovery menu, enter the ‘advanced’ menu. From this menu, select ‘Wipe Dalvik Cache’. You will be prompted to confirm this action. Select ‘Yes – Wipe Dalvik Cache’.
8. Go back to the main recovery menu by selecting the back button and select the ‘Install zip from SD card’ option.
9. Select ‘choose zip from sdcard’ to get a list of the files and folders on your SD card. Scroll to the ROM’s file that you copied there in step 2, and select it. You will be prompted to confirm this action. Select ‘Yes – Install file_name.zip’ where file_name.zip is the name of the zip file that you are trying to install. The process will be like this:
10. Wait patiently while the ROM is flashed to your phone via recovery.
11. Once the installation is complete, head back to the main recovery menu if you aren’t there, and select ‘reboot system now’. Your phone will now boot into the newly installed ROM.
Do this first, will tell the rest then.
