STEP 1: Installing LK Bootloader & Recovery

(If you have already installed a NAND version, you can skip the haret boot part, but it is very important to flash the new bootloader from lk-photonic-pc.rar!! It contains important changes for wifi calibration!)

Download all files for NAND (see downloads)

Extract lk-photonic-pc.rar to somewhere on your PC

Copy update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-photonic-KANG-signed.zip and the content of lk-photonic-sd.rar archive to the root of your sdcard and run HaRET from your device

The device should boot to the fastboot prompt. Connect the USB cable

If your connecting your phone for the first time to your pc you have to install drivers from the folder you have just extracted. You can see it in your windows notification bar if you were sucessful. Be sure to have already run haret and already being in fastboot console on the device when installing drivers! If you are sill having problems to connect to the device via fastboot try installing HTC Sync (from htc website)

Enter the Fastboot-folder on your pc (the one you have extracted) and run bootloader.bat

The device should reboot now, when white "HTC" Bootscreen appears press "Volume down" and hold it until you have entered fastboot console again. If you have been too slow plug-out/in the battery and try again

Run recovery.bat on your host pc

Device should reboot again, now on HTC Bootscreen press and hold "Volume up" until you have entered CWM Recovery

STEP 2: Installing the build

(Once entered CWM Recovery you can control the menu with vol-up and down buttons, power button=enter)

First, go to "mounts and storage"-menu and Unmount any partitions that can be unmounted (most likely, cache)

Next, in "mounts and storage"-menu, format System, Data, Cache and Boot partitions

Next, go to recovery main menu and select install zip from sdcard, then select choose zip from sd card

Choose the update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-photonic-KANG-signed.zip

Once done select reboot system now

Get some coffee and wait for the device to finish the first boot

Hopefully your are done now and should see the setup wizard!

Feel free to remove any of the files from SD-Card now, they are not needed anymore
