-Go to CWM Recovery. (v6+ required)

Installation instructions fro sVanilla 1.2 (Same for Update v1.2.2) :

-You must be on sVanilla 1.1.

-Download the update.

-Put it in phone.

-Reboot in recovery mode, and flash it. DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING. (Well if you do, loss is yours :D).

-Reboot.

Installation Instructions for OTA Updates

-To recieve OTA Updates, you must flash 1.2.2.5 Update.

-If you have Google Play Store and Services enabled, you will receive notifications automatically when an update is availabe. Else, go to OTA Updater app, toast notifications may say no ROM update, so just ignore. Check for Updates Manually.

-Just download (you can view changelogs).

-After download is finished, you will be prompted to flash, and will be shown things needed to wipe. No need to wipe data unless stated.

-Once done, phone will ask for root access, grant it.

-It will then boot into recovery and will flash the zip automatically, you will have to confirm installation by selecting to install 'untrusted zip'.

-Thats all.
