Info

This is CyanogenMod7 for Samsung Nowpus (GT-I8320). Its based on h1droid project with modifications for CM7. For this build you also need to build the modified kernel. Big thanks goes to mephisto the former of h1dorid project. He did the great job of hacking the initial kernel for the Samsung Nowplus. And of course thanks to ius who was the first person started hacking the h1 and did a great job on reversing the h1 baseband.
