Hello Guys! just updated my phone with this, works fine. But one problem, the uploading.com links

Here I found direct FTP Links for the updated downloads...

Here

http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=z71

You can find the latest updated mods here, these mods have been working fine for my Spice Mi 300. Im using Android 2.2 Froyo perfectly...

Its really a lot better than Android 2.1 Eclair

And today i had a talk with Spice's Manager and they informed me that they will soon release 2.2 or higher! Cheers...

Mail me for more inquiries, info... ill wait :)

And i also wish if i could get a stable release of Android 2.2 cyanogen Mods instead of Nightly builds

Stable Mods means = Perfectly tested final release version

Nightly Build Mod = Mod released every day by the night. May not be perfectly tested, like for example beta version. But these have been working fine for me till now

I wish i have one Stable version cauz i am tired of updating Mods daily as Build 15, 16 then now 25. Everyday u get new update

dont be tired guys, just think about those guys who are working so hard to develop the roms.
thanks to them!!!!

@S Moinuddin: Froyo is better than eclair, but the version we have here has few issues, build 25 doesn't detect Wifi (worked in build 15), also other problems like the headset button not working, etc.
If spice releases 2.2, we'd be more than happy...

Hi guys, I heard that with the android 2.1 eclair update on the Spice MI-300, the processor speed drops to 480Mhz from 600Mhz.

Does the same thing happen with these Cyanogen 2.2 froyo mods?

Thanks

Does anyone know a solution for this:
I have a z71 and sometimes it's just not sending text message.When I make a call while tring to send, it works just fine...
And it occurs only sometimes?
Does anyone had similar?

cpu runs at 600 mhz on cyangen mods. texting you have to have the area code for it to work dont know why its always been like that since 1.6

Nick said...

@thomas_tommy_007: The processor speed is reduced to 480 in order to increase the battery life.
Its 600Mhz in Cyanogen.

Can any body tell me how to get back Android 2.1. I Installed Cyangen Mod 2 version 7. Now SUT does not detect my Spice MI 300.
And even if when I try to update Cyangen Mog 2 Version 26, when I enter recovery mode, Phone autostarts in before updation is complete.

@Swatantra B: you have to flash a image recovery that recognizes SUT or RUT. You have to install Android SDK, reboot in fastboot mode and flash it with command fastboot flash recovery
Search the net for a good recovery image for your phone. Also you will need Android Debug drivers for your phone to connect to it in fastboot mode. Good luck!

@Swatantra B: You'll need to flash the stock recovery image on the phone first. Just copy the recovery.img (most probably named F0X-0-219M-recovery.img, if you extract it from stock 2.1 ROM) file on SDcard.
Also copy the .nb0 file (you can use firetrap 1.2 from this site)
In the terminal program in phone type the following commands
su
cd /sdcard
flash_image recovery F0X-0-219M-recovery.img
reboot recovery (this will reboot the phone in recovery mode, now u'll get "Download .nb0" option)
You're done, now even the SUT will recognize the phone.
