Ok, so I have froyo on my huawei ascend m860, i rooted my phone using ginberbreak. I then flashed my phone wirh clockworkmod 3.0.0.5. I went into clockwork recovery and did a backup, then formatted what I was told toformat. Thwre was an error formatting data. There was no sd ext and rhen when I tried to install cyanogenmpd 6, the insrallation aborted it said it couldnt open the zip file. Was there something wrong and which cynagenmod is better 6 or 7 and will I lose everyrhing on my sd card?
 
It was probably a bad download. Are you downloading them off your phone or on a computer then transferring them?

CM6 is 2.2 CM7 is 2.3

You will lose everything on your sd card IF you format or partition your sd card

I was using cm but it said it couldnt open up the zip file. I was.doing it on my phone. Is there someplace I can get a clean file

Im not sure why you'd have problems formatting. The ext yes I can see because your sd card most likely isnt partitioned. If you really want CM6 (I prefer CM7) Give me a minute, I have a few other CM6's on my computer Ill upload to Mediafire for you to download.

Like I said i dont know why youd have issues with formatting anything besides the ext.

Are you Metro or Cricket? I only have Metropcs ones
