Guest HCDR.Jacob Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) Hey, I've made this thread to share a build of CyanogenMod 7 which is designed for Gen2. The reason for this is that future nightlies are likely to be very broken. Something happened and now they don't work on any devices. So anyway, if you want to upgrade to Gen2 and use CyanogenMod 7 instead of SS, this is the zip to use. If you have one of those saunalahti things, this won't work for you unless you use the correct RIL libs (this will be fixed in future CM7 builds, but this one is makeshift and kinda unofficial). Download (Mirror) Enjoy. Also, for the love of God, don't post bugs from this on the issue tracker. I'll kill you and your family if you do. Usual disclaimer applies.

Guest Ythle Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) What you mean about saunalahti things? The finnish version of GEN2 phones? Thanks for sharing this build with us! :) EDIT: Figure it out... Edited April 16, 2011 by Ythle

As a hint, the saunalahti_rils.zip found in swedish spring's first post can be used to get saunalahti people off roaming. Or just replace the appropriate files with these. Thanks for all your hard work Jacob! Edited April 16, 2011 by sm4tik
Guest Chris_M Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 Thanks Jacob! I've seen lots of different Gen2 memory maps floating around - will there be an "officially approved" CM7 partition layout?
Guest Northern-Loop Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 Downloaded and installed, restoring data and will report back.
Guest HCDR.Jacob Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 Thanks Jacob! I've seen lots of different Gen2 memory maps floating around - will there be an "officially approved" CM7 partition layout? Officially, we recommend stock. Unofficially, I recommend and use the 136MB system. CM won't fit on a 128MB system, so don't use one of those.
Guest Northern-Loop Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 I'm using the stock partition and the CM7 G2 has restored everything fine. Top Work guys!
Guest x.balli.x Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 thanks man, i upgraded my OSF to gen2 a while ago, was bored with SS, thanks for your work :)
Guest Tsip4 Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 Officially, we recommend stock. Unofficially, I recommend and use the 136MB system. CM won't fit on a 128MB system, so don't use one of those. It would be great if you made a guide for update our phones to gen2,changing the partition layout and installing new cm7 builds.
Guest k0zmic Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 It would be great if you made a guide for update our phones to gen2,changing the partition layout and installing new cm7 builds. Guide already here: http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...2-windows-only/
Guest leetron1 Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 Thankyou Jacob...installs fine on 128MB partition...sterling work my friend & MUCH appreciated too
Guest Tsip4 Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) Guide already here: http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...2-windows-only/ How about the thing with the cache. Where it is used and how much it is needed? That will be ok "gen2_136mb_system_no_oem_15mb_cache.zip"? Thanks for the link Edited April 16, 2011 by Tsip4
Guest Autopiolet Posted April 16, 2011 Report Posted April 16, 2011 How about the thing with the cache. Where it is used and how much it is needed? That will be ok "gen2_136mb_system_no_oem_15mb_cache.zip"? Thanks for the link Running on 136 and so far so good!! Good work everyone.
Guest leszekpap Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 I should install this or nightly 40 ? what excatly is this build ? my phone is gen2 :)
Guest lordofangels Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 Can I ask, which version of Clockwork or Rom Manager are you Guys using to flash this?
Guest Simon O Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 (edited) I should install this or nightly 40 ? what excatly is this build ? my phone is gen2 :) Use this. Nightly40 is broken for all devices, as Jacob says. Update: n40 fixed apparently. Edited April 17, 2011 by flibblesan
Guest skull_fcuk Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 Whoa, can't tell you how glad i am to find this. Have been dying to get back to CM7 now that i've Gen2'd my device. Will be donating Jacob, can't thank you guys enough. :)
Guest Quu Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 Love this part: "Also, for the love of God, don't post bugs from this on the issue tracker. I'll kill you and your family if you do."
Guest skull_fcuk Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 Works perfectly, installed using CW 3.0.1.4, and using GAPPS.gb.20110307. Loving it. Thanks Jacob.
Guest Len Ash Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 Works perfectly, installed using CW 3.0.1.4, and using GAPPS.gb.20110307. Loving it. Thanks Jacob. Perfectly as in as well or "otherwise" as the Gen 1 version. Still a country mile away from usable, at this point.
Guest skull_fcuk Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 Perfectly as in as well or "otherwise" as the Gen 1 version. Still a country mile away from usable, at this point. I haven't had any crashes, or force closure of apps. Compared to N39 on the same phone when it was Gen1, or N39 with the Gen2 kernel, on the Gen2 version, it's perfect!
