Root CyanogenMod 7 Unofficial Beta 5 02/20/12

I will wait to try this out once it has matured a little more and people start posting their experiences with it. Till then I will be lurking around.

im going to do my part by trying it and post my experience since im not good at making roms and stuff. you can do the same and it will be more help full and this could mature faster. just saying.:D

what color is the text when your in CWM

If your not on version 5 you need it, and if you have issues installing 5 I will help you in the CWM 5 thread but not in this one

I had the same sequence on CWM today. I had the update on sdcard/downloads instead of unzipping the update file to the sdcard locations. It was stuck in the subfolder. IDK if thats it but that was my problem and that is exactly what it said to me also.

ok i got cwm to update. i had it in the right place but i didnt extract the update zip. lol must have missed it. now to try cyanogenmod. do i have to make another back up if i already did it with cwm 4?
