Hello all,
I had created this CFW with the thought in mind that I would use this myself. Now, I thought it would be beneficial for me if some beta testers could advise me on various aspects and report bugs as well as their fixes. I'll be highly thankful.

Notes:
Hard reset BEFORE flashing! It is important or you won't get qt!

RM-625 to be fixed soon. RM-588, RM-504 too within 10 days. If you want me to make it for your RM, please post it in the comments!


This download contains core files too. So, no need of downloading binh24's core files from ever slow FileSonic. Delete Private, Resource, Sys, System, Patches, Data from memory card! Don't backup settings using OVI. Then JAF it!

Please post the CFW according to the following description “Phone Model – FW Version – CFW Name” like the following example” Nokia N8 - RM*** V20 – Awesome!” Or Nokia N9, N8 etc – All RM – Awesome” for multiple Phone Models and / or RM.

** Topic Name Now Edited **

Some suggestions for the CFW, which I believe should DEFINITELY BE INCLUDED!

1. a 5x4 MENU LAYOUT, it looks elegant and gives a user access to EVERYTHING on the MENU itself. You talk about simplicity, I'm giving it to you here.

2. The theme and icons, I think you shoud TOTALLY include WP7 v4 Metro Edition(transparent) by Mayank. Everyone would agree, it would totally go with the MEtro tag, and believe me, all my friends are awed at its simplicity and stunning look with a black background.

3. Waiting for RM-588 version release.
