Root Cyanogenmod 5.0.8test1 running on Inc.

I'm glad you brought that up cuz I tried that and I see a black screen with a phone and a red question mark then it loads up the regular Rom. nothing

Sounds like the stock recovery to me. Have you used the unrevoked app to flash clockwork to your recovery partition?

ah, no.... I will. is that all I need to do?

You have to be rooted first. Then run the unrevoked reflash tool. At that point you can run a nandroid backup and install the rom of your choice.
May I also suggest getting quick
boot from the market.

after i run the nandroid backup how do i install the new rom?

edit: never mind i got it lol

it's booting up now and it's taking forever....

edit 2: i think i'm stuck in a boot loop.... how long should it take for it to load up cuz i've been seeing the boot animation for about 5 minutes now

i got the rom to load and work but as we all know it doesn't come with google apps.... well has anybody gotten the google apps to work with this rom?

 

[150_cav]

i got the Google apps working and of course the rom is buggy but also it isn't much faster. there is a ton of free ram though and battery life actually seems better

Does this rom have the vanilla android unlock screen? I absolutely hate how ugly the sense one is.

Yes it does. It's awesome.

Awesome. I may just have to try this one out and hope the bugs get worked out.

Quick question. I'm not finding my photos on the internal card. If I connect to a PC there's just 4 folders, none of which are the 100media file that the pictures show as a path, and if I use Astro I see the same. Any help? I could always email them to myself, but I just want to have it all correct. Thanks.

WARNING!!!!!
BACKUP PRIOR TO INSTALLING THIS ROM, Current CyanogenMod Rom corrupts your internal 8GB so if you have pictures make sure you create a backup and just in case copy the contents of your internal to your sdcard. location for 8gb internal is /emmc/

Donate to Koush by purchasing his Rom Manager Premium APP

For those who dont have rom manager

4. choose nandroid - restore and select CyanogenMod-5.0.8-test1-Inc
5. Enjoy

So question. Future updates to Cynogen, is that going to require another wipe? Because I really don't see the point in jumping on Cynogen right now when I might just have to wipe it all over again.

 

[150_cav]

the rom was great- Wait did he say "WAS"?

yes i did kids, why? because i took it off.

but why?

cuz stuff kept force closing like my widgets and such. >:-[ it's a great rom to check out but i don't see how someone could live with it for a day. but i did get the sweet ringtones and put them on my stock rooted incredible

Cyanogen was easily my favorite ROMs for my MotoDroid, hands down better than all the rest. It was nice to flash this and check it out but Koush has got a ways to go before this can be a daily driver for any of us. I quickly reverted back to Jager.

Every time you flash a new ROM you will basically be starting over.

Yeah, my girlfriend hated it when she couldn't reach me; I was always switching between roms on my droid. Now with the rom manager and some very impressive backup/restore tools, I don't think I ever need to worry about hour long setups anymore.

Looking forward to #6 though.

Yeah... except there's nothing there, like I said. I finally found the pics though.


For me all camera pictures are on the SD card in /sdcard/dcim/

Thats what grandmaster was trying to show you. this rom corrupts the internal 8GB of storage, where you were trying to find your pictures, and erases everything to the point where you would have to format the space and start over in it. meaning if you didnt back up your pics somewhere else or already had them saved in the sd, they would no longer be there once you load this rom.
