You flash the google apps after you've flashed the cyanogenmod rom. I like to power off after loading the rom and play aroudn to make sure everything is working fine. Then i'll boot into recovery and flash the google addon
sounds like we don't need the android SDK then, how did you update your radio?
Quote:
Installing the Radio Update¶
2. put both the radio and update zips on your sdcard
3. power down your phone
4. Using the volume down key and power button to get to bootloader/recovery option screen
4a Use volume key to scroll and power button to pick
5. Go to flash zip from sdcard
6. Flash radio update zip first
7. After that is complete and you've restarted when it told you to do so.
Same procedure for flashing radio as flashing a ROM (but without the wipe) right?
Having trouble finding the 2.6.35.7-cyanogenmod kernal.. didn't have much luck going through google or the CM forums, and it's not listed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=744605 and it's not in the cyanogenmod github repository either.
I'm assuming the kernels are specific to the ROM?

I'm debating if I should root the Desire Z...
There isn't a full one released yet, just temp root. but HTC Sense is freaking cool... I can lock and clear my phone remotely if I should lose it.
having problems getting into recovery mode with clockwork mod :S
ROM Manager flashed the clockworkmod recovery successfully, but when I boot into recovery mode from ROM Manager, it goes to the android/exclamation mark screen, I push volume up + power, and it goes to the stock android recovery mode, can't do a Nandroid back up from that...
if u get this..then great..
anyways..I believe theres a different set of drivers for the SDK for windows7..not sure..since i did my root in either winXP or a mac
follow this guide. It goes thru the ADB method with visual, i followed this guide...but since this was wayy back then..theres some updated files in there.
could be me..(most likely..from my half sober state) that the filename was incorrect when u tried to push recovery onto the phone..but it should be given that the file name replaces those Xs..
the RA ur running is hte latest one as well..shouldn't be a problem, im still on 1.8 or wutever the previous version of RAANOM is...
I find clockwork too dangerous to use.
once u push the recovery onto phone, boot it INTO recovery(there shoul dbe an option there to load into recover thru the bootloader screen) and DO A NANDBACKUP on r already customized rom.
you can go ahead to make an EXT3 or 4, but backup the memory card on a computer b4 atempting this..again..READ on ext3/4 and how it works iwth CM6.1.. ext3/4 is very sensitive to the rom itself and some might not support it
then flash CM6.1
He is recomending the 4.06 radio, but im on 5.06or whichever one was after and its fine.
as for kernals...
i can't stress this enough to all the people i've dealth with on the nexus..
READ THE GODDAMN THREAD FOR THE ROM AND KERNAL BEFORE FLASHING
a bad or incompatible kernal can do ALOT OF HARM to the phone..especially if ur planning on using apps like setCPU.
hopefully this helps..hard to focus on typing atm.
in clsing..learn how to push/pull ADBshell, that way, you can easily apply your own look/feel of the phone n a lot of the apps out tehre thru adp.
happy and safe rooting!
as for paolo..perma root for desireZ shoudl be coming soon..but i find it scary how theres not a lot of support for it
Thinking of selling mine or trading it for an iPhone 4 now lol
I did that 2 months ago and I can say that I'm having much more fun on the iPhone.
Got bored real quick from the constant ROM flashing and trying to find the "perfect" ROM.
