Read the whole thing first. NOT MY FAULT IF YOU MESS UP SOMETHING
NEW update 8/08
newest update here
newest Gapps
If you already have CM7 then wipe SYSTEM only and flash new zip and gapps
if not on CM7 yet continue down and follow steps
Download this stuff first and put it on SDcard:
1) z4root ([APP] z4root - xda-developers)
2)Droid 2 bootstrap (Droid 2 Recovery Bootstrap v1.0.0.5.apk)
3)Cyanogenmod7 for Droid Pro (cyanogen_venus2-ota-eng.jonathan.zip)
4)Gapps Optional (http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-mdpi-20110501-signed.zip)
5) RDS Lite (MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service)
6)SBF 2.26 (MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service)
This is the actual instructions:
1) SPF to 2.26 (no need for OTA) If you get a boot-loop pull battery then hold r+m then push power. In recovery mode do a factory reset. Then reboot.
2) Go through install process and get your network up and running, dont need to sign in to google
3) Install z4root ([APP] z4root - xda-developers) and get root
4) Install Droid2 Bootstrap (Droid 2 Recovery Bootstrap v1.0.0.5.apk)
5) Go in to recovery mode with Bootstrap
6) Do factory reset (i did it 3times to make sure)
7) Flash the zip with Cyanogen on it then if you want flash Gapps
8) Restart phone and enjoy CM7 and its greatness
IF SOMETHING IS NOT CLEAR ENOUGH JUST ASK AND I WILL UPDATE THIS
ALSO I DID NOT MAKE THIS ROM I WISH I HAD BUT I DID NOT. ANYWAY I DO NOT TAKE CREDIT FOR IT LINK TO OG THREAD I WILL UPDATE THIS AS NEW UPDATES COME OUT
I already posted this in the section.....

I am thinking about getting the Sprint version of this: the XPRT. I have had an EVO for a year now, but the big screen/virtual keyboad is just not ideal for business use, which is all I really use my phone for.
That being said, I love custom ROM's. I noticed the lack of threads on the XPRT (which is really just the Droid Pro).
Any idea of this procedure for installing CM7 will work for the XPRT?

well it would probably work the same for you but you probably need to change it so it will work with sprint cause we are both on CDMA but GSM and the other one is for sure not working so no global use for now

Thanks for the info. The differences in network might be a problem, especially for global use. Any ideas on how to address this?
I bought an XPRT today. I already have it rooted. Love the physical keyboard. But I already miss custom roms.
Is there a way to return to stock from CM7?
No clue how to make it work on sprint I will ask around and we'll I heard if you made a backup before going to cm7 you can do that
But if your to scared to do it or did not you can just sbf like you did to get cm7
Edit: ok so from what i hear your xprt should work just fine with this rom no changes needed but with no sbf file for it there would be no turning back if you make a mistake or something so you would be best off to wait till a sbf comes out for it

I am curioius though if you can use Droid Pro sbf on XPRT. Has anyone tried it?

I'm pretty sure you can't use our sbf and from what im hearing now it's probably best if you stay away from the rom for now

Thanks for checking around. I am going to wait tell something official comes along by someone who is used to doing these things.
For the time being, having it rooted and using a custom launcher is working well for me.
Thanks again for your help with this.

Many thanks!!!
Droid Pro Repository
here is a link to the droid Pro Repository,there is a Dev named NinjaWolf that created it and HE also will be joining the task of helping create a bug free CM7 for the Droid Pro,he is working on some of the bugs now so we need to make a list of bugs and twitter me @nutpn your issues so we can get the CM7 perfect,if it was for Jackpotclavin and crackmonkey and others this would not be possible,so thanks from all of us.

Hey,
I had a horrible bootloop-infection on my phone today for no reason; maybe its the sign to replace the Rom; i had a milestone 5 from AOKP [ around june WTF??!?) installed and was enjoying it till this day;
I was waiting for the last 4.2 Rom update from AOKP but since no update for the last month i decided to get something new and fresh instead, so thought to come back here and ask you guys thos flash junkies or just people who realy enjoy their current ROM;
I wasnt here for 6 months due to studying in the university so most of the names are new to me in the Development section that's why i realy need the help to choose;
I dont need much only good battery life; option to remove the notification bar and to have the navigation bar transparent or invisible;
Currently sitting with 4.0.2 clean recovery Rom that i made on the start of February o0 build waiting for responses;
Thank you;
Well, I am not using any of these custom ROMs so I am always supporting the idea of going over the main thread of the most popular ROMs in the development section then choosing whatever seems reasonable to you. Try it, then if any complaints then go for another.
If you really want a 4.2 AOKP ROM, then check this
I hope you have a break from the university so you can play with these custom ROMs
Thank you ahmadallica;
I'm studying software engineering so my free time is for sleep only currently thats why i ask for guidance due to the fact i dont have much time to test each Rom;
The Rom you gave looks realy nice from the outside but sounds more of a huge nightly build instead of a stable one, with so many stuff missing and probably he just uses the AOKP frame without adding/updating/changing any stuff moreover the lack of changlog and an overall [work/not work] stuff that the rest of the Rom developers show suggesting its just an amateur one; i really appreciate this dude's hard work but i need something stable for half a year and not to be one of this Rom testers;
Highly recommend paranoid android, been through leads of custom ROMs and I've stuck with this the longest ... give it a go, excellent team and excellent ROM

Paranoidandroid is definitely the way to go. The new version is still in beta but almost completely stable in my opinion. Themes are hit or miss at this stage of the ROM but yes, you can adjust the colors for the navbar, statusbar, navigation icons and statusbar icons within each app. It can be found in settings/paranoidpreferences/apps.
I've been using this rom since v1.98, it's now at 2.99 BetaNINE and I have not looked at anything else.
*Sidenote, PA used to be CM based up until version 2.54, starting with 2.99 Beta1 it is now AOSP based for a smoother and faster experience with better battery life. This is why some features are not yet added back and other things are not fully perfected (i.e. themes).
The problem with themes is that with every new Beta of PA comes some new code and the themers cannot always keep up with every new release so a lot of themes end up causing issues. I would just customize as I recommended above for now and once AOSPA 3.0 is released PA will be out of beta and easier to find compatible themes.
Yes you can adjust the colour of the status bar and nav bar for each app individually from with the hybrid engine within the rom... Most play store themes support it too... anything else just let me know

Thank you dankblaze for all that info;
I realy dont need that much of customization just that all bars/system/screens be with the same color and to be able to adjust that 1 color myself;
Is that possible in the new 2.99 or should i get the 2.54?

Personally, I like TWRP so check this on how to install it easily. Take note that if you have CWM nandroid backups then they will NOT be compatible with TWRP because it has its own nandroid backups.
As for kernel, just try them till you find a suitable one
Thx bro, i might give it a try tho is there something wrong staying with CWM ? i dont care much for the backups im gonna format it anyway. but i read inside you say it not for Gnex and thats its only for the Nexus 4? is that true?

No no. That was for the other member in that thread who was mentioning a Nexus 4 version. TWRP works on both of them. Basically just download the Goo Manager app then it will install the correct version automatically just follow the steps to save some time for your software engineering studies
I will copy the steps below so you don't have to worry about that link in my previous post.
1- Run GooManager app
2- Click on the upper right 3 dots for settings
3- Click "Install OpenRecoveryScript"
4- Confirm Recovery Install --> Yes
5- Confirm download, reboot, and install --> Yes
6- A download process will start then it will be installed
7- (Optional) Reboot into recovery to ensure that TWRP is successfully installed and working.
And no there is nothing wrong with CWM, I just personally like TWRP
If you are staying with CWM, then just update it to the latest version before installing any 4.2 ROM. I think installing/flashing the latest CWM recovery can be done easily using the "ROM Manager" application from the Play Store
Jb sorcery latest is great and has every tweak you can think of, very stable and they have inverted gaapps!!!

I recommend using TWRP. There were some problems with multiple media folders being created when flashing with CWM. I know latest TWRP did not have this problem. Don't know if latest CWM still does this or not.

Hi guy's some of you might remember me,I've done a little developing in the past.Anyways to make a long story short.I got tired of waiting on a 4.3 ROM to play around with on my old NS4G so I did a little work and got everyone a 4.3 ROM to play with. I'm not saying I helped or did anything to BUILD this ROM i just edited a ROM posted for the nexus s.All credit goes to cn.fyodor and his thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2410844
Go hit the thanks button for him.
I'm not really into developing anymore i don't even have a machine set up to handle doing this stuff. If someone would like to take this and work out the bugs that be great.
P.S. I justed noticed he has updated to v2 Ill probably make the edits to that and upload at later date.
You take all risk when flashing your phone.Don't cry to me if it breaks.
How to install
-download rom-- aosp-4.3-crespo4g.zip - 118.03 MB
-Boot into recovery
-make a nadroid
-wipe everything
-install rom
-optional download gapps from cn.fyodor post,flash them
-reboot
-issues--
-mobile network should work because my phone does have proper time and date but i don't have it hooked to my account using a GS4 currently
-some settings might FC part of gsm port to cdma.
-flash for the fun of it and tell me.lol

Hey, welcome back!! If memory serves me right, you released the first ics port for nexus s, right? The sdk port?
anyway, thanks for the 4.3 update! I've been trying to find time to do this myself
Flashing now :good:
Thanks for the port. Lost root, but I just flashed superuser in recovery and it was fine. The only problem I encountered was no calls in/out. Otherwise, nice job!

Hello guys! From IllusionRom team we wanna offer one of the first compiled versions of Lollipop in XDA.
WE ARE USING THE BINARIES FROM THE SECOND LOLLIPOP PREVIEW, SINCE LOLLIPOP OFFICIAL BINARIES ARE NOT RELEASED YET.
This thread will get updated really soon, but right now we are focusing fix some errors and update the ROM..
Flashing steps:
TWRP IS RECOMMENDED
Download the ROM on the section above.
Download the gapps on the section above.
Go on TWRP, and wipe data,system, cache and dalvik cache.
Flash the ROM.
Then press back key, go on Reboot section and select Recovery
It will reboot into TWRP again, so now flash gapps(and superSU if you want root).
Enjoy!

Hello guys. Another post from me. @aznrice2k4 , @MidnightNinja and me are working for release a Gapps with all new apps from Nexus 9 system dump.
As a lot of people seems that are not able to live without root, thanked to one of most cool guys I know @sykopompos , we are gonna release a modified version of the kernel which has selinux set to permissive, so that allow us to can use root working at 100%. It needs to be flashed via fastboot.
fastboot flash boot bricked-boot.img

Great work man.. Much appreciated.... Have been refreshing the dev page and chkng the xda page since monday
Just one qstn.. Will this still have the miscellaneous battery drain ?

There isn't a particular reason that we have to use TWRP right? Other recoveries should work? You guys rock! :good:
Also we can just flash the new kernel, then flash SuperSU to get root, right?
1. Root works after flashing supersu. No need to flash another kernel since it's my exp bricked version.
2. You can use multirom but it has to be internal and not secondary. Why? IDK. I tried.
3. Flash another kernel and I have no guarantee for anything.
4. I haven't even had the chance to text back my gf since all I've been doing is rebooting rebooting and testing gapps. Battery life? Good, I supposed. I have no clue.
Anybody wanna tell me how to get back into recovery. I guess I jumped the gun.
Tried to volume- plus power and got the red triangle android guy.
Manage to download es file explorer off internet and saw my files intact on SD.
Didn't see the no root issue so didn't flash SuperSU. .
BTW no internet or computer with me
Looking foward for the gapps and we're good to go....

Seems that flashing this zip will take out or replace the recovery. All you need to do is download TWRP(my favorite), and flash it via fastboot. With that you will have back your recovery access. I have internet and computer working perfect to me, idk what happened to you. I would recommend you to flash the L 2nd preview radio indeed.

Also, this doesn't have the Play Store, correct?
Is there any way to get a centre clock on Open Beta 12? For earlier versions of Android, i used Gravity Box and for OB11 I used a flashable zip but I can't find and zip for OB12...
Thanks in advance!
If there aren't any mods made yet, how can i create/port one? Is there anyone working on it?
Nothing??
are you rooted?

Thanks @Bradl79 for the zip but i got “error 6” when i tried to install it, im using TWRP 3.0.2-1 (its modded to support installation of Open Betas).
I upgraded to TWRP 3.1.0-0 but no luck, still got “error 6”...
