If i flash CyanogenMod 7 is there a possibility to brick my Arc?

Hi
I downloaded the repository of cyanogenMod it run gingerbread 2.3.4 so i am trying to port to Arc and try to learn and i built it, its generic and i tested it on the emulator and it worked.
now if i want to flash my Arc for a test will it brick my Arc???
i have the system.img but i am not sure if its safe to test it on my Arc and not briking it. if not then i will test and if anything happened i will reflash with Bin4ry's image.

unless you've modded it to work with the Arc hardware (drivers/ screen resolution etc) then it simply won't work.. so you probably shouldn't bother taking the risk..
There is already someone working on this.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1057555

yes i am monitoring the thread. but i wanted to try to miss and take a look on the files.

Chances are u could just use flashtool and it would be fine

He has bootloader unlock and might be better to push Bin4ry's .img file.

It's impossible to brick the phone completely by flashing system.img. So you're safe.

Thanks guys.

[Q]Can someone explain in detail how to Root with Locked Bootloader?

Hello,i am trying to Root my phone but i had no success due to the lack of any detailed guide for Rooting with Locked BootLoader.(For play)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116090
i downloaded everything the OP has said
But the Flashtool is confusing for me,how do i add a new Device with Properties,drivers,Flashtools etc?
@[email protected] i am so confused,the only thing i have done was delete the X10 firmware and replaced it with the Generic UK one.
Help? Will this also delete everything on my phone?

Yes it will delete everything on your phone.
Do you have a verison phone?

Try what this person did. I didn't use the flash tool.

There is a rogers specific one but I can't find it. It worked for me and I added a few noob tips to it.

Oh thanks man, but question. How do I "flash"? Can you link/explain in detail please?

Edit : I can't root via gingerbreak... So can't use titanium backup...

l2 xda search
tbh if you can't read or search then you probably shouldn't be flashing your phone.
The fact that you have made 2 threads and also asked the same question in other threads is a bit spammy tbh.

Ay sorry bout that. I thought I'd get more help here.

There are backup apps other than titanium, a lot of them don't need root.

Next time you get a solution, make sure you update your posts. Of course this is easier to do when you don't post the same question in multiple threads..

Hi mate...
For some reason I can't open all files.
For example - can't open bootanimation.zip?!
If it's only one it'll be O.K but I'm afraid it could be that many files (in app folder) are corrupted...
