[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
Since i had a lot of PM of people who want explanation to install this ROM

I make this little thread for you.

Notice that i don t make this rom i only test it and make the nandroid image

to know more about that you can read the Mioze7Ae thread here

And for those asking for the performance I try almost all the rom and this is for me the fastest and (with the sileshn theme include) it s also the most beautiful...

I had between 70 to 80 Mo RAM available without swap. With swap i reach the 95 100Mo!!! (I attach my boot.img files too but it s the first fjfalcons').

Here you can find a tutorial to fastboot boot.img to enable swap.

And it works in multilangage (i don t know which but in english spanish and french without a problem)

To enable app on sd and swap you must have your sd part in this way: a fat32 part for the media / a ext3 part / and a swap part

You can find a video guide here on his channel(you will have to search a little but i remember its called 8min Linux...) made by reverendkjr

I make another image and i test it 3times (from sbf to the end...) so all works !!!!!!

For the beginners i will come back to the sbf.

1. SBF

So I m using the Singapore SBF I think you don t need it to get it work but it s better for those who have problem to change it too (it seems to work in every country)

So you can find the singapore sbf here

And you install it wiht RSDlite (do a google search): first put your phone in bootloader mode (when the phone is off you hold the camera and the volume up button while powering up) then you select your sbf and flash it.

2. Recovery

Now you have a fresh new system

You have to install the recovery

First of all you will have to install a file explorer form the market (you can use the one you want it will be deleted when flashing...)

Now you have to move the two apk(universal and root and openrecovery) i attach to this post in your sd

you can now install with your file explorer the apks.

Start with universal and root. Intall it and root your device.

Install the open recovery now. (Install it and install recovery system)

Now you must install Androidiani OpenRecovery I think it will work with out but it s easy and the recovery work better with it... So you just have to extract this zip to your sd (overwriting the similar files)

Now you have a working recovery. To launch it just go to open recovery and click on recovery boot (don t forget to copy the nandroid image folder in the sd card/ nandroid/openrecovery before you go to the recovery)

3. Restoring the nandroid image

Now you have a working AOR (androidiani openrecovery) and you have extract the attach nandroid image to sd card/ nandroid/openrecovery folder

Don t forget that nandroid need a folder name with out any space and in this folder you can only have .img or .md5 files.

So in Open recovery you go to nandroid / restore /

And if you don t change the folder name you must have CyanogenTI0808allupdates in the list

You select it and launch an restore all operation.

After that you come back to the first menu and wipe dalvik cache/ cache partition and wipe data / factory reset

Now you can reboot system. And it s done. Don t forget that the first boot is very long (about 5 or 6minutes)

CyanogenTI0808allupdates (the nandroid image)

(made and posted the 08/08/2011)

With all the new update from the official post (until the 08/08)

And the Twisted Inception theme from sileshn (with the update for the white text and the new battery icon)

You have to change the hour color (in settings / Cyanogen Mod / user interface / status bar) (from black to white)

Known issues:

- Fm Radio not working

- Media Gallery button not working

- Recovery boot (from the restart menu) don t work (you have to reboot holding the volume up button)

- Led notifications from the Cyanogen mod menu don t work but Led Me Know works

- Some users have issues with installing payed apps... I never have so....
