Go to top of this thread and it gives you very specific instructions. Do it, it's really cool. I really dug Velocity since the beginning, but thought I'd try something new and waddaya know, it actually works quite nicely!!!!
My ally isn't activated anymore, I just use it for testing and experimental purposes. I moved on to a Fascinate and it's pretty friggin' rad on that as well!!!!

Now that the evil witch standing in the way of development has been slain:

I am pleased to announce Project Gretel: CyanogenMod 7 for LG Ally.

Backstory: This has been nearly a year in the making. I first started trying to build for Lg ally from source back in Aug of last year and after months of work mostly solo finally got a mostly working froyo build out in Oct 10. I have been working on gingerbread off and on since Jan 11. It is also very refreshing to see the work I did on opening up development on the Optimus One and Optimus S by making the original recoveries for those devices and the inital overclocked kernels come back around and be useful for the Lg Ally.

I'd like to thank:
Project OpenEtna (Original eclair & froyo Cyanogenmod support on Lg GT540)
Mik9 (For work on Optimus One on CM7 which mine is heavily based on)
Zefie (For work on Opt S & some cdma support for LG's on CM7)
Rmcc (For work on code aurora devices for CM7 without which none of the above devices would have a working camera)
And it goes without saying the entire CM7 community also!

THOSE WHO KNOW C++ and JAVA ARE ENCOURAGED TO HELP IN DEVELOPMENT OF SOURCE. IF YOU MEET THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS AND WISH TO HELP PLEASE SEND ME A TWEET TO @getitnowmarket
this is awesome. any chance on seeing a cm9 port. i just want to brag about ics on an ally. lol. :D
