Root [ROM][WIP] CyanogenMod 7 | Android 2.3.5 | Last Version: CM7-Triumph-09182011 (discontinued)

Yes. I edited my post too late, I suppose.


Thanks Isaac. Will grab it in the morning. You and tickerguy deserve an award for your hard work. I'm extremely grateful for all that you guys are doing and I'm sure I speak on behalf of all the people who are anxiously checking their email notifications like me: we are indebted to you guys. A million thanks!

So GAPPS has to be installed?

Yes, unless you don't like having the Market. ;)

From the CM-wiki:
Google Apps contain the proprietary Google applications that come pre-installed with most android devices. Due to licensing restrictions, these apps cannot come pre-installed with CyanogenMod and must be installed separately. CyanogenMod does not require Google Apps to function properly, however, to take full advantage of the Android system, Google Apps are recommended.

Alright, so I didn't want to bother you guys here, but I guess I'll have to since I've failed flashing the new recovery so many times...

Here's what I did:
- Downloaded .zip containing the recovery.img
- Extracted recovery.img to root of sdcard.
- Went into terminal emulator and tried flashing the recovery.img
- Getting the following error:

# su
# flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
failed with error: -1
error scanning partitions

Am I doing something wrong? Help?

The Triumph doesn't have a recovery partition...

You have to put the phone in download mode and replace the original recovery.img with mine.

Looks great, thanks Isaac. I'm backing up apps now, going to flash in a bit. Unfortunately my Triumph always crashed past 1.5 using umph so I'm not sure if I'll be able to get past 3000's but hopefully this can push me further! I'll keep an eye out for any bugs

I made sure that the OC kernel doesn't force 1.9 GHz by default. It'll start off at 1 GHz and then the user can go up as desired.

Oh, right. That's how I did it the last time.
I knew it was something really stupid. hahah Thanks.

By the way, seems like tickerguy has fixed the Wi-Fi lockup bug.
Would be so sick to have a new build with your new features plus that Wi-Fi lockup fix!

We share the same repos. If it was fixed by him, it'll be in this build. If it wasn't, then it isn't.

EDIT: I don't see anything on Github. I'll ask Tickerguy if he'd be willing to share the fix and I'll include it in the next build.

Did my message get to you on github? Also does this automatically format ext4?

One more note, I think I just made a mess in my pants!
almost 4200!!!

Yeah, I got your message. If you followed the directions thoroughly on the first post (using my new recovery and latest build), then you've moved to ext4.

EDIT: Triple (post) threat!
