Root How to install CyanogenMod 7.2 - Huawei Fusion 2

[M4TT]

Good news, I'm going out later tonight to buy an SD card. I'll come back to tell you guys how installation goes.

Yay! Looking forward to hearing your results!

Alright, I went out and got an 8 GB micro SD card. I put the card in the phone, put the .zip on the card, and booted up CWM. It finally mounted the /sdcard, and I loaded up the .zip from the card. It started to install, then I got an "Installation aborted (status 7)". I decided to reboot the phone to put a new copy of the .zip on the card, and to my surprise, a loading screen came up saying "CyanogenMod 7.2". So it works!! I should've backed my contacts up, though... :\

Thanks so much for your guys' help! I feel like a total dummy, trying to use the internal storage.

EDIT: I have one last question. How do I use custom themes? I went into Theme Chooser and it only had the default System theme.

Congrats, I'm stoked you got it up and running!

Search Google Play for CM7 themes. Once you download one you like, you can select it from theme chooser.

Alright. I was looking on the "Post your home screen" thread and I saw you had a theme that looked like Jelly Bean. What is that called?

Its the ICS theme, It gave me an error when I loaded it, but still works awesome.

When I try to use ICS, it says "This theme was improperly compiles and cannot be applied."

That's strange, try to uninstall it, and try it once more. It gave me an error, but still allowed me to use it.

Jellybean is the theme I use currently.

 

[M4TT]

Still gives me that error. Oh well, I guess.

The Jellybean theme works great, I like it a lot!

One thing I noticed about this mod is that it doesn't show the carrier in the top left of the statusbar. Can I fix that somehow?

I really like the Jellybean theme too. My first Android was a Nexus 7, so maybe that's why. lol.

I've never tried before today to get the Carrier to show, I prefer it to not to, and would use statusbar tweaks before this ROM to remove it.

I ran through all the CyanogenMod settings I can think of, and even installed a statusbar tweak app to see if I could get the carrier to show. I have been unsuccessful so far. I will keep trying, and get back to you if I find something.

Maybe someone else knows how?

 

[M4TT]

It's really no big deal, I'm just used to seeing the Carrier there. I can adapt.

 

[cameron581]

Wow for 18 adf.ly views there is sure a lot of you lol well im cameron581 (porter of the cm) and there are many different ics themes the one your trying to use isnt the one me and rose are using

And status bar you can edit in setting cyanogenmod settings interface and then staus bar

Hey Cam,

I tried to edit the status bar in cyanogenmod settings, but it refused to show the carrier in the status bar, it just changed the way the text showed up when I pulled the notification bar down.

Can you get yours to show?

 

[Radiance]

Yeah, I couldn't put the carrier name there either. That's okay though.

As for themes, this is where I found the one I'm using at the moment, there's loads to choose from, and you'll just need to download and adb install (or do it the long way by putting it on your card, ):

I personally never like the carriers too much.. Glad to give them less visibility! Hah!

 

[M4TT]

Thanks so much, guys! Without you, I wouldn't have been able to pull all this off.

 

[shagerty]

Glad you got it up and running! I'll be editing the tutorial later today! Post some screenshots in the various threads!

I got my 8GB SD for $6 on-sale. Look around...

 

[shagerty]

Exactly not very expensive.

Thank you all so very much for your work. CM7 runs smoothly, it's just great. Had an issue mounting the Phone to my PC (ubuntu 12.04)and couldn't access my SD card.

After some searching I found that unchecking USB debugging and then fixing permissions on recovery allowed me to mount my SD card upon reboot. Hope this helps someone.
