IF YOU DOWNLOADED THIS FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE I WILL NOT SUPPORT OR HELP YOU IN ANY WAY. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL THREAD WITH ALL THE ORIGINAL FILES! ANOTHER SITE HAS POSTED THESE FILES NOT USING MY LINKS!

IF YOU ARE OVERCLOCKED AND HAVE SYSTEM STABILITY ISSUES OR APP ISSUES DON'T REPORT ANYTHING. THE ONLY ISSUES I WILL LOOK AT ARE WITH THE STOCK SPEEDS.

Really this began as me just playing around bored on my day off. I said I wasn't going to take on this project, well that obviously didn't stick lol. Since the Cliq & CliqXT are now official CyanogenMod devices I thought I might attempt to get this up and running for the Backflip as well. Will this ever be 100% working? Hopefully. My goal is for this to eventually become an official CyanogenMod device. This is not Blur don't ask. I was just posting this on twitter but that has quickly gotten out of hand. 50 people report the same bugs over and over. Here there can be a little bit more organization. 1st don't demand anything from me. 2nd read all the posts for possible known issues that other users post. 3rd I don't care about bug reporting. We know the last issue which isn't even an issue lol. If you are going to nitpick go back to 2.1 seriously.

I recommend using a newer recovery for full compatibility with Rom Manager since that is part of CyanogenMod. This is my modded version of Clockwork 4.0.0.5. This is NOT the thread to ask how to flash a recovery. Sorry.

Here is the latest which is just to hold you people over.
teaser-update-cm-7.1.0-RC1-BACKFLIP-KANG-signed.zip
fixed in this version:
- charge_only_mode is fixed. switched back to the prebuilt binary.
- hq video
- USB Mass Storage fixed
- Envelope & explorer keys are now working. Settings>CyanogenMod settings>Input. Set them to open whatever apps YOU choose.
- New libcamera, but the Camera.apk still doesn't support it yet. Maybe some camera apps will allow you to switch to ffc when the kb is flipped. I haven't tested.

For a full Google experience you will want to also flash the following after the rom
gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip

If you have any fixes send me a pull request here https://github.com/j-r0dd/device_motorola_motus or you can always monitor updates there.

Questions or how-to's should be addressed in this thread only!!!! Unofficial thread for help on j_r0dd's [ROM] Official thread for my unofficial CM7


known issue:
-camera preview is upside down when kb is flipped in landscape only

This my sound silly but why is this on the Front Page? No disrespect or anything but I already knew about this and so have quite a few individuals here. Did I miss something?

Because not everyone knew about it. Most of us have our noses buried in our own model's forum.
Front Page good place for news. (Good news, at that.)
