If you are already running CM-4.1.99+, you can ignore the steps below and just flash!

Install instructions from SimpleHelp: http://www.simplehelp.net/2009/10/04…android-phone/

Install instructions for an HTC Dream/ADP1/G1:
1- Perform a Backup……nandroid, etc
2- Download: http://developer.htc.com/adp.html#s3 Android 1.6 Recovery Image. This isn’t the type of recovery image we know. It’s HTCs version of an update.zip
3- Download my ROM. Posted Below
4- Mount your phone and place BOTH 1.6 Image and my ROM on your SD Card.
5- Reboot into recovery mode *Home+Power*
6- WIPE!!!! This will allow google apps to function, correctly.
7- Apply sdcard:choose zip *PICK dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip* from the list

8- Apply sdcard:choose zip *Pick cm-4.1.99-signed.zip* from the list.
9- Reboot!

Install instructions for an HTC Magic (32B ONLY!!!)/ION/MyTouch3G
Same as above if you are using CM-Recovery 1.4.

Same as above EXCEPT step 2

* Apps2SD is automatic! All you need is a second partition (ext).
* Launcher with 5 screens and auto-orientation and compact drawer layout
* Clean filesystem shutdown at poweroff/reboot, and fsck at boot (no FS corruption!)
* Includes T-Mobile IM application, Amazon MP3 store, and Work Email (MS Exchange support)
* Does not require “DangerSPL”
* Includes a massive APN list
* Maximum CPU scaling frequency set to 528MHz with latency tweaks
