CyanogenMod 7.2 Droid 2 – Installing CM7.2 for Your Motorola Droid 2
CyanogenMod 7.2 Breathes New Life Into the Motorola Droid 2
I had left my Droid 2 sitting in a drawer since I got my Droid X a few months ago. When CyanogenMod 7.2 RC1 came out, I started playing around with getting it loaded up on the Droid 2, not wanting to risk my “production” phone. The first few attempts went awry, so I’ve documented the process that worked for me. I am very happy with the results and feel that CyanogenMod 7.2 is a big step forward from 7.1. Please read this entire post before following the directions. As you might expect, I’m not responsible for anything – so proceed at your own risk.
Droid 1 Recovery – Boot Up and Go
Droid 1 Recovery – Easy
To boot Droid 1 recovery (also known as the Original Droid, OG Droid, Moto Droid, Motorola Droid) start with the phone powered off. Then, slide out the keyboard and hold down the X key. While holding the X key press and hold the power button until you’re greeted with the Droid 1 recovery. That’s it!
The Droid 1 is still a good phone, so I hope this is useful. Plenty of places out on the web telling you how to do this – I’m just including it for completeness of my own references. I try to write my own material when I can, at least for the devices I own. If you need additional support beyond what I offer here, you can try Motorola’s web site.

Droid Still Going Strong
Long Live the Moto Droid
I retired my original Motorola Droid over a year ago when I graduated to my Droid 2. I preferred the keyboard on my original Droid (or Droid 1), but learned to live without it on the Droid 2. I’ve recently stepped up to a Droid X but continue to use my original “OG” Droid as a micro-tablet and podcast player.
