[PORT][3.22.x EBI1/32A]Cyanogenmod 5.0.8/6.1.0 DS EBI1/32A Port [December 8]

***I have recently switched to the Nexus One but I will continue to do these Magic ports as long as there is a desire (and I have time).***

This is a thread for the port files required to use the 32B Cyanogenmod ROM on 32a/EBI1 phones. Please see the following link for details on the ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567610

Note: Rogers users - if you find yourself without data upon flashing this ROM, use the settings found here to restore your APN.

Credit Radix for the following instructions - they are copy/pasted from his thread. Also thanks to all of devs who have contributed to the ROM scene - impossible to mention all of you, specifically Amon_RA, stericson, prash, cyanogen, riku, Radix, koush, TigerTael, haykuro, pershoot, zinx and more I am forgetting I am sure.

***Please note that the following steps require that you have a recovery with the option to flash any .zip file. I recommend Amon_RAs recovery, Clockwork Recovery, or ROM Manager
***

NOTE: All new ports will be based on Koush's Universal update.zip. This lets you flash just a kernel and matching libs to a phone without the need for a ramdisk. Basically, it takes the ramdisk currently installed and repacks with it the new kernel.

Basically, the port packages provided from now on will port ANY ROM from 32B --> 32A/EBI1.

ROM Manager
1. Download ROM Manager from the market
2. Flash the ClockWork Recovery
3. Go to Download ROM > CyanogenMOD > Choose the version you want to flash.
4. Select Gapps addon (if you want Google Apps)
5. This will reboot to recovery, make a backup if requested, flash all the components and reboot.
6. Win.

Theme Support
Themes CAN be applied overtop of this ROM/Port combo. Just make sure to reboot in between the Defanged Base/update-cm-/port file step and pick a theme that corresponds to the Cyanogenmod version you are running. Keep in mind that some themes include a boot.img (no idea why...), so just keep an eye out. If you apply a theme with a 32B boot.img, just reapply the port file afterwards. If you apply a theme with a 32B boot.img, the phone will not boot past your carrier lockscreen...you can easily restart and reflash the port file. Always backup before flashing anything!!
