It looks like they're pulling the one from the 825 build:

In that post, he says 828, but he goes on later to say that he meant 825 (I can't remember what date the build actually had on it).

Install Instructions

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the great work ---- I just got the OTA Gingerbread update earlier today before I found this thread. If I want to try Cyanogen on my phone (which now boots with a red M) what are the full instructions for doing so?

Based on the flowchart in the first post I only need the zip with Cyanogen -- correct? What exactly do I do with the zip? I remember in my old Droid I needed to boot into recovery mode, run some wipe/clean commands and install an update file -- is that the case with the Pro? If so, how do you get into recovery mode?

Thanks

Dan

Finally I'm having the white Wifi issue.

It seems like the wifi issue has something to do with the DNS resolver.

When the wifi is white, I could still ping 208.67.222.222, means that there is no problem with the network per se, but when I do a nslookup google.com it shows that nameservers are 0.0.0.0. Even when I specify the DNS server to use (e.g. 8.8.8.8) it still fails. Seems like DNS is the problem here guys.

This is what happened to me. Getting an IP address was never a problem. Gateway and DNS were always at 0.0.0.0 for some reason. Even when settings DNS to google dns servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 using DNS setting app, it still wouldn't work. Even tried setting all fields manually and still I couldn't get anywhere.

Considering the fact that gingerbread for the DPro is seemingly rolling out, will there be a new update to the CM7 Rom now, assuming the newly released GB update is a newer build?
