Vithu I am happy to bring you CyanogenMod 6.1 RC 1 for Dream/Sapphire. All credit goes to the Cyanogen Team. Neither myself nor M3 had anything to do with the creation of this ROM. We are simply bringing it to you with permission from the Cyanogen Team. This is the first release candidate for CyanogenMod 6.1. It is not a finished product. If you have been running Cyanogen Nightlies, this will be very much the same as the nighlty builds are the test builds leading up to this release. Enjoy and thanks again to Cyanogen and his team! For support of this ROM please visit the CyanogenMod Website.

CyanogenMod is a free, community built distribution of Android 2.2 (Froyo) which greatly extends the capabilities of your phone

This is a release candidate, but you will find it stable enough for everyday use.

* Your warranty is now void.

* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,

* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please

* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM

* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if

* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

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 CHANGELOGfor a full list of changes and features!

All source code is available at the CyanogenMod Github! Send pull requests with your changes!

It's important to know that the "DangerSPL" (or DeathSPL or Haykuro's SPL or whatever you prefer) is a prerequisite for Dream/G1 users. Magic (MT3G etc) users do *not* need to do this. Ciwrl has written a guide to installing this bootloader. Flashing this bootloader under the wrong conditions can actually brick your device, so pay attention to the guide. CM releases have always avoided this requirement, but the new bootloader frees up enough space so that no crazy hacks are required for a fully functional system, and it's easier to keep in sync with the N1/Droid releases.

INSTRUCTIONS:

- First time flashing CM 6 to your Dream/Sapphire (or coming from another ROM)?

1. Unlock/root your device and install Clockwork Recovery via ROM Manager or Amon_RA's recovery image

2. Do a Nandroid backup!

3. Update your radio if necessary

4. WIPE

5. Install the ROM

5. 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? Get me the file "/proc/last_kmsg".

- Was it a soft reboot or a "boot loop"? Run "adb logcat" and get me the full output.

- Pastebin links preferred

- Please use the issue tracker whenever possible!
