I announce the first BETA of CyanogenMod for Droid X here on RootzWiki, this is complete and utter magic. I will be supporting this build here due to the process involved and I cannot be in 11 places at once.

The first thing you will need to do is go to this thread and downgrade to FroYo for Droid X due to only having v2.6.32 kernel support. Downgrade THREAD

After you have installed and flashed the 2.3.34 SBF you will need to do the following:

Install and root using Z4Root here: 
MIRROR 1

Then Install the bootstrapper:

Here is the CM7 Download Mirrors:

As for google apps, the 2.3.4 gapps have been reported to not be working on this build. I personally have had success using the gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip package. Google Apps: http://kan.gd/qd3

Please remember that this is a BETA, so it will be buggy!


GPSFIXcm7.zip just flash this in Cm7Recovery by pressing power and selecting Reboot, then Recovery just install .zip from sd

Camerafixcm7.zip this also fixes youtube, netflix, and you can run a quadrant score (just flash this in clockworkrecovery)

Some things that are known to NOT work:
camera/camcorder, there have been reports that youtube is hit-or-miss, torch force-closes (flashlight). Download the Camera illusions app from the market for a working camera..

Things that have been reported TO work:
audio playback, radio, 3g/data, calling, video playback, gps, accelerometer, notification lights, battery charging, usb connectivity, bluetooth, bluetooth audio, bluetooth calling, wifi, opengl, theme engine, market installs, dsp manager, maybe more?

Honestly I feel like this is in amazing shape!

Some other notes:

1. This is CYANOGENMOD 7. Thus, it is GINGERBREAD. It boots off of the .32 kernel which shipped with froyo, but that’s trivial (this is the reason for flashing back to 2.3.34).
2. So long as your other ROMs ran off of 2.3.34, you should be able to flash between them and CM7, as CM7 uses the same recovery from DX/D2Bootstrap.
3. Most importantly. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES INSTALL/RUN DROIDXBOOTSTRAP OR DROID2BOOTSTRAP WHILE RUNNING CM7. IF YOU IGNORE THIS YOU WILL HAVE TO SBF YOUR DEVICE. CM7 has been engineered to reboot into recovery by either a.) using adb to get into a shell and typing “reboot recovery”, or b.) simply holding the power button until the global action menu comes up, and then selecting “Reboot”, “Recovery”. There is no need for DX/D2Bootstrap and running them will mess up the 2nd-init process.

Team Black Hat’s All-In-One installer
Alright, P3Droid of Team Black Hat has been nice enough to put together an all-in-one installer for CM7 BETA for the DX! This installer is in update.zip format, and can be installed regardless of what version of moto’s kernel you are running (be it .340 or .596 or whathaveyou).

The steps are as follows (once the zip is on your SDCard and you are in recovery):(Clockworkrecovery via bootstrap not stock recovery)

1. go to mounts and storage
2. format system
3. format data
4. format cache
5. mount system
6. go back
7. go to install update from zip
8. select the update-cm-*-MONSTER.zip
9. install
10. install gapps (optionally)Google Apps: http://kan.gd/qd3

YOU WILL GET A RADIO INSTALL ERROR IGNORE THIS AND RESTART PHONE

To install the Radio **** Must be done for GPS to work***
After intial install of CM7

NOTE: I will not personally be maintaining this version of installation as it is not how CM builds are built by the build system.  If you wish for official support I ask that you attempt installing using the original method to ensure that the problem persists.

GPSFIXcm7.zip just flash this in Cm7Recovery by pressing power and selecting Reboot, then Recovery just install .zip from sd

Camerafixcm7.zip this also fixes youtube, netflix, and you can run a quadrant score (just flash this in clockworkrecovery)
