(root of sdcard means any where in the sdcard, and NOT into any folder).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Flash with ODIN the CWM v.0.6 tar.&lt;br /&gt;b) During the flashing, CWM will boot up. From the CWM menu, select &amp;gt; wipe data/factory reset.&lt;br /&gt;c) select &amp;gt; install zip from zip sdcard ----&amp;#62; and select the CM v.1.7.2 first and install. After completed installation, select Hotfix1 and install and then Google Apps and install.  (Must be in this order).&lt;br /&gt;d) Wipe data/factory reset ; Wipe dalvik cache ; Wipe Battery Stats.&lt;br /&gt;c) Reboot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) This is part is require if you want to partition your sdcard :&lt;br /&gt;a) Boot up CWM : press off button &amp;gt; reboot &amp;gt; recovery ---&amp;#62;&amp;gt;&amp;gt; CWM will boot up (if not, press &amp;gt; volume up button + off button for approx. 8 - 10 secs - don&amp;#39;t worry, this is normal).&lt;br /&gt;b) select &amp;gt; advance &amp;gt; partition sd card ----&amp;#62;&amp;gt; select the size for your partition and the 2nd selection is for swap partition, select 0 (zero)&lt;br /&gt;c) reboot&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) Install S2E from Market.&lt;br /&gt;a) Open S2E, click the Menu key -&amp;gt; Settings.

Select also the &amp;quot;Download cache&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;d) Changes will take effect on the next reboot. Note: your dalvik cache will be rebuilt, so this reboot will be slower than usual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DONE&amp;#33;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) ***Latest Google Apps package: Google Apps (20110828) - Not all the google apps are available in this minimal package.&lt;br /&gt;b) If you require more google apps, go to &lt;a href='http://android.modaco.com/topic/335141-addoncm7-updated-more-google-apps-2011-08-15/' target='_blank'&gt;Android@Modaco&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Select option 1b and install each app individually.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) Each time you update to a newer ROM version, you have to install the three files in sequence/order, i.e. &lt;br /&gt;a) ROM v.xxxx, b) hotfix-x (if any) and c) Google Apps. After installation, perform &lt;b&gt;&amp;quot;WIPE DALVIK CACHE&amp;quot;.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this guide helps and if I miss anything, please inform me. And good luck flashing to CyanogenMod. &lt;!--SPOILER DIV--&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--SPOILER DIV--&gt;</description>
