would someone like to test this on the spirit? i made this for the motion but since it doesn't contain a base rom i thought it might work on spirit. basically it's just the changed and added files required for paranoid port in a flashable zip.
this requires that you have cm10 installed already and just flashes over it. will not work on stock rom.

if it boots the buildprop will need to be edited for density and this line changed.
ro.pa.family=pa_mdpi because i believe spirit is hdpi. correct me if i'm wrong.

this has a motion buildprop in it. so if it boots and someone in spirit community wants to edit it or change out to spirit buildprop,and repost. whatever is needed. then thats fine with me.

if it doesn't boot but someone thinks they can make it work. go for it.

it does boot and works great on motion cm10.

i'm positive this can be made to work if it doesn't already but as i don't have a spirit i can't test and edit accordingly so i'm turning it over to spirit community to do with as you please.

I wonder if that's why I had bootloops....probably...I was building from source, used the regular updater-script that's used in CM10...I gotta get a new phone ASAP.
