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

This mod still has the artefact glitches when watching hd youtube video for me. This has been happening for me since the 6.1 stable mod. Anyone xperiences th same prob when watching youtube? Btw I'm using xt502.
camera problem was fixed, Thanks to bkreport
Unfortunately the battery issues are still here. Better luck next time.
keeps giving problems with sdcard.... sdcard won't open... have to format it.. that's the only option it gives...... once formatted, again it screws up and asks to format....
same problem of sd card with me..... sd card unmounts automatically.....
there should be some missing information:
im coming from 2.1 orange spain, i installed the 226d that seems to be english orange. after that withouth wipping there is some mixture of os. i couldnt use rommanager cuz i had to root the phone, and i couldnt do it like in 2.1 from apanda throught fastboot.
after getting the phone rooted and loaded the other files, i couldnt access anymore to the recovery mode to wipe the phone.
i downloaded supsetup v16 and it never starts.
the cpu clock is at 600, the screen at the begining before cyanogem is orange and no android and the batery last 3 hours maximum.
maybe all the problems are because i cannot wipe the phone? i would like to have a extended version of the how to will all the steps.
good job and thanks!!
Thank a lot for the post. Everything is running absolutely fine for me except the google goggles. after clicking photo with goggles it turns into a black screen with infinite looting ring loading display. rest is very good. 2.2(Froyo) is very fast compared to 2.1(Eclair). I am loving it :P Thanks again :D
After installing the camera patch, google goggles is also ok so far.
I get problem with battery
can i upgrade motorola xt3 to froyo from eclair using this method?
No battery backup
I got problem in boot... it hangs... already done 5 flashes.. also tried using 6.1.0 Final.. at first boot looks ok.. after a reboot.. hanged.
on my Wellcom A88 it unmounts frequently de sd card or says unknown format. also reboots the phone often, so no stable
