Tonight I was curious about some infos surrounding Gingerbread upgrade for Nexian Journey. From a thread here at XDA-Developers Forum, looks like a fellow Indonesian has managed to compile and install a Gingerbread ROM for his own Nexian Journey. I read about that a few days ago and last night CyanogenMod 7.0 was released. Still with RC0 but it’ll be nice to live on the edge :) These are the requirements for Gingerbread to happen: ...
Back again with another post about Nexian Journey. The wait is complete for a stable Froyo mod from Cyanogen. The stable mod was released on 12 December 2010.

You will need Clockwork recovery image after flashing CMLMod 1.3, download here. This is the best part, Cyanogen Mod 6.1 Build 7 for your Journey, download here. [UPDATE] Stable Release 6.1.1 here. Google Apps - MDPI here. A decent laptop/pc or a Mac with Parallels and Windows XP will do. Android Rom Upgrade Tools (RUT) and Drivers for 32 bit windows here, 64 bits windows here or both here. Fastboot windows, download here. Nowadays, rooting is a very easy task. It's already built into the recovery image, what else can you ask? Sorry I couldn’t give picture-by-picture step to upgrade your Journey, you’ll have to make do with plain text. Tweet me @tista if you need assistance. So here are the steps: ...
