This is an AOSP-based build with extra contributions from many people which you can use without any type of Google applications. I found a link from some other project that can be used to restore the Google parts, which can be found below or elsewhere in the thread. I've still included the various hardware-specific code, which seems to be slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Visit the CHANGELOG for a full list of changes and features!

All source code is available at the CyanogenMod Github!

If you'd like to to contribute to CyanogenMod, checkout our Gerrit instance (howto).

INSTRUCTIONS:
- First time flashing CM 7 to your Desire (or coming from another ROM)?
1. Root your device and install Clockwork Recovery (Unrevoked method is recommended).
2. Do a Nandroid backup!
3. Update your radio! New radio from HTC 2.2+ roms is required (Desire Radio Thread).
4. WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
5. Install the ROM
6. Optionally install the Google Addon

- Upgrading from earlier CM6?
1. Do a Nandroid Backup!
2. Install the ROM (your Google apps will be backed up automatically)

HOW TO REPORT BUGS OR PROBLEMS?
- Was it a hard reboot? Go into recovery and dump the "/proc/last_kmsg" file.
- Was it a soft reboot or a "boot loop"? Run "adb logcat" and get send the full output.
- Pastebin links preferred
- Please use the issue tracker whenever possible!

Please visit the CyanogenMod Wiki for step-by-step installation walkthroughs and tons of other useful information.

This is the latest release candidate so any and all feedback is appreciated!

Extremly fast!

blackcoffee85 · Jul 7, 2011

Very fast, great battery life too.

I'm not convinced profiles are working properly but need to look at it more closely.

Great stuff!

With the new 5.7.0 version of Google Maps out this may be of interest...

I can`t download anything bigger than 5M from the markets

Large Hadron · Jul 7, 2011

That's why the script /system/etc/init.d/06mountdl is included in the ROM. You shouldn't need to do anything.

I've been running RC1 for a week with a 5MB /cache, no download problems (including Maps 5.7).

Code:

mkdir /mnt/sdcard/market-download-cache su cd /cache mv download download.bak ln -s /mnt/sdcard/market-download-cache download ls -ahl

this is not the right way

"adb logcat" during install
"adb shell df -h" can show your problem

Downloading the new 7.1-RC1 right now. Have run 7.0 before, was quit ok. Now running Oxygen 2.1.6 but somehow that one has a huge battery drain for me, dont know why. So i'm gonna try the new Cyanogenmod later toyday to see if i'm going back to CM

I installed this new 7.1 ROM 10 hours ago. Generally speaking it's a very fast ROM. I like it much. But there are some little problems

1 - there are no notification for number of SMS received (SMS icon)
2 - camera shutter sound is very loud (setting there are for this not working)
3 - wi-fi signal is more weaker then other ROM in the same conditions
4 - GPS lock up need 5 or 6 minute

If you can do something with this, will be great

blackcoffee85 · Jul 7, 2011

I didn't have any trouble installing Maps 5.7.0 this morning

wanyf · Jul 7, 2011

So good news to know CM release 2.3.4 roms

Maybe "your" problems are because is still an experimental rom this version and not a stable one. Try 7.0.3, this one is the last stable release.

Cheers!

Is there any plan to use the GRJ90 (Android 2.3.5) base?

Are there already ROM's with Android 2.3.5? Or better said, is 2.3.5 out already

? Didn't heard about that so far. What is made better in 2.3.5 ?

basher52 · Jul 8, 2011

For your long GPS fix, try FasterFix from market(need to be S-OFF). Now it takes me 15 seconds to locate

As far as I heard,the only new thing in 235 will be secure nfc with google wallet.so to me, it's not that important to get it asap.

Upgraded from 7.0.3 to 7.1-RC1 last night with no wipe of any partition, 1st thing i noticed is insane battery life charged to 100% last night when to bed at 12H00 woke up at 06H30 battery is at 99% after 6 and a half hours

SICK

Thus far pretty awesome, only other thing i noticed is that in call volume is very low even with the call volume max'd, i am using the XX.XX.XX.23 radio will flash the XX.XX.XX.08 radio when i get home and see what difference it makes.

I havent really tested much as I only have it on for a few hours, should anything come up, i will report back.

Well, only the minor version is changed and the increment is 1!

I don't expect major changes in the core of the OS. My point was that when one downloads the source repository, many of the CyanogenMod projects are downloaded from android.git.kernel.org. If Google pushes GRJ99 to its source repositories, then most of the CyanogenMod core projects will be based on GRJ99, unless the maintainer modifies the manifest.xml to instruct repo to download a specific branch.

Assuming that was with 3g and WiFi?

Be interested in what happens! I am new to CM7 (though i'd try it after using Oxygen since it's release!) and liking it so far but went for the stable build (7.0.3) as im away next week! But would upgrade in a second if it is stable and the battery is that good!
