im trying to get cwm and cm7 on my nook so i can flash roms and the video im watching http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7pfqbpZZ7A&feature=related
the cm7 link is dead. ive done a search and i see cm7 for glaxy. can i use that or can someone point me to the dl link for cm7. thanks
Just because a rom say has the same name (cm7) does not mean you can use it for any device. Roms are modified and tweaked to support the hardware for respective devices.
See this thread for CM7 for the Nook tablet.

Hi All,
I'm new to modding my phone and recently flashed it with Cyanogenmod Froyo 2.2.
I want to flash it with Gingerbread but have seen that there are memory leak problems with Cyanogens.. In fact today they ave decided to pull support for the device.
What are my options for getting Gingerbread onto my Hero GSM??
I have seen Elelinux's mod highly spoke of, but it is based on Cyanogen mod (i think). Does it too have the same memory leaks??
Thanks in advance!
Cyanmod have Officially Ceased supporting the HTC HERO as they don't have a DEV supporting the Developement for the HERO
THE LAST Cyanmod for HERO is I Guess version 7.02 and thats it
Elelinux's Gingerbread is Based on the CM7 but He does his own tweaks as well you can always check the thread for what problems people are reporting for the ROM
There is another GIngerbread ROM by 'Cronos' which you could try, but you will have to google for it as I don't think I might get away with posting links here
google for 'cronos project'
I have used elelinux's Roms a lot so like his work but is personal choice and thats what XDA offers it members 'CHOICE'
Don't make assumptions about ROMS .
Try them yourself and stick to the one you like the best
in his latest version (2.0), elelinux included a special patch that has to be flashed separately after flashing the ROM, and on my Hero it reduced the amount of black screens and invisible menus by a great deal. They still show up every now and then, but only when doing memory-intensive stuff. Go check out the thread
Haven't tried Cronos yet, but they also get some good credit I believe.
My son wants to mod his Thunderbolt, 2.2.1. and put on Sense 3.0
I personally have a Samsung Captivate and have got that working well but seems to be quite a bit different than the TB.
I haven't been able to find a clear path of exactly what needs to be done to get through getting a kernel and a mod. Does anyone know of a web page that gives step by step instructions to make this happen?
I also read several other posts on recommendations for which one to install but as he wants (he thinks) the Sense 3.0 does that limit the choices?
I dont understand...do you want instructions on creating your own ROM that uses sense 3.0? Or are you looking for something already made for you to use?
If its the latter there are sense 3.0 ROMs out there. Look in the development section and you can find them.
Here is the one that I use:

The phone is off the shelf and nothing done to it. For the Samsung there are "Hack Packs" that basically help you download and install the mods and kernel.
I don't mind reading the directions, but I haven't been able to find a set of instructions that says what to do.
I assume I have to install a kernel. On the Samsumg its SpeedMod and that works good. What do I do on the HTC TB?
Then on the Samsung I download the ROM and from the SpeedMod I can install it. How do I do this on the HTC?
I guess somewhere in all of these postings there is someone that has step by step instructions, but I can't find them.
THANK YOU for any help!
In order to be able to mod your phone you will need to gain root access. Directions are here.
Then you can go ahead and search the site for the ROM that you want. A full listing is here.
Read the instructions, some ROMs require the MR2 or MR2.5 radios. The above link lists to those as well.
As for kernels, all ROMs come with a custom kernel included that will work with that ROM. If you want to try another kernel the above link lists them out as well.
Thank you very much!
You're going to want to use BAMF RC4. www.teambamf.com. Great stable Gingerbread Sense 3.0 ROM. Use the latest radio with this ROM.
Hi.
I'm a noob myself but you can find posts on how to root your phone. ( I did the easy way). http://www.droidforums.net/forum/thunderbolt-hacks/141936-auto-root-unroot-htc-thunderbolt.html
And i've flashed every rom out there for the thunderbolt. My favorite one by far is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110820
Its the fastest one, stable, reliable, great on battery. Its the best.
The developer is doing a great job fixing all the small issues.
As for now the only issue is the camcorder but he just posted that he fixed it.
Beside that it is just great.
Sense 3.0, Netflix, skype, talk....you name it....everything is there.
maybe you shouldn't start with this one.... I miss flashing new roms . now I really have no reason to do it.
This rom is the best!!!!
wow thanks for the extra info!
Hi!
I have recently bought a second hand Vibrant.
Seller had MIUI on it, which I didn't like, for a few reasons.
One was non working GPS.
So, I installed latest stable CM 7 , which I like, BUT, GPS doesn't
work with it too. As I understood, that is common problem with 2.3.3
based ROM and Vibrant.
So I started looking for 2.2 based ROM and faced the problem, that
most links for these are currently dead.
I have succeeded to download Toxic Crazy8 and few versions of bionic,
but my recovery (version 5.0.x.x) refuses to flash them, as they are
in "old format" .
So, long story short, I am still looking for a ROM that will make me happy,
and thus need your help .
My requirements are :
Deodexed ROM, so I can apply the RTL fix on it ( or with built in RTL support).
Working GPS
Good battery life
Not too slow
As new as possible ( may be 2.3.x if all the above apply)
Should include FFC mod support
with working download link .
So, your help,suggestions and advices (and download links) are welcome!
Thank you in advance!
First and for most I suggest the ICS Passion V11 rom ....but if you want to go back to the extremely stable roms among us you will have to flash an older clockwork something that can be done in clockwork mod. Many people suggest Project V it was a great rom, but most would say that you can't go wrong with the bionix roms. Again though ICS Passion V11 (4.0.3 based) is definitely a modern winner though.

ICS PASSION.
Stable fast GPS works and its 4.0.3
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
If you want the newest, latest and greatest, the two posters above me nailed it. Passion is awesome and fairly stable.
But if you are wanting a 2.2 ROM, fisherman (I think that's his name) is updating Bionix and should have updated links.
ICS Passion
Thanks for all the replies!
Let's say that you've convinced me, and I am going to try the ICS Passion.
Few more questions regarding it though.
As I am totally not familiar with ICS, does it have RTL support?
I recall I have read somewhere it does , out of the box...
Does ICS Passion have support for FFC mod, or , specifically, will
I be able to have video chats on Skype or it's alternatives?
Thank you in advance!
Mulder check your PM box.
If you don't end up liking the ICS, there are these 2.2's that are solid builds and you can flash them with the CWR version in my signature.
Toxic8 (which you tried but with the linked recovery it should work-did for me)
Deranged9
Bionix
Bionix-Fishman redux
Trigger
Bi-winning
2.3's have battery and memory issues, so buyer beware.
Oh, and how good is ICS in terms of battery life?
I get 2 days out of her...
Has anyone ported cm7 to this device yet? and if so where can i find it?, and if no, is there anyone working on it?
As far as I know, no one has built CM7 successfully for this device. There is a post in the dev section entitled "ICS Port" where a user has been trying to build either CM7 or CM9 but has had limited success. As far as I know he has not been able to get his build to boot.
i have offical gingerbread rom (olleh) in my dell streak i am bored from this rom ... can anyone plz tell me which is the best custom rom for dell streak which have all the things working correctly .... and also plz tell me the procedure how can i move on further to custom rom ... Thanks ... plz help
The best ROM is subjective, but DSC ROM is perhaps the most complete and functional ROM available, being based off the official Gingerbread ROM. I personally use hPA's CyanogenMod 7 with the current Phoenix Kernel. However, on that ROM the WiFi on rare occasions gives out and needs to be reset by putting the Streak into Airplane Mode, and there is no HDMI port support.
Best way to find out is to try them yourself, but you'll have to actually look through the forums for the answers, as they have already been posted more times than I care to count. In other words, search before you post.
