You can install it over gingerbread.
By the way, did you root your phone? And install ClockWorkMod recovery on it?

Well it will be some months warranty and after that he will update to cm7 or cm9. So is there any official update? And will z4root work?

U need to root it. Use z4root mod (a software widely available) and select permanent root and reboot ur phone. Next flash cyanogenmod. U could go for cm9 but for a new user, a fully stable cm7 is better. Try burgerZ kang found in cm7 kang thread in the blade android development section. Download the rom and the Gapps
Download rom manager and flash clockworkmod recovery. Backup data
Put the rom and gapps in ur sdcard. Reboot into recovery by pressing volume down and power. Wipe data and cache. Select install zip from sdcard and flash both the rom and gapps
Reboot.
See the link in my "cm7 ics" thread in the Blade general for an ics look

Root and custom rom it's a must!!

[Q] Do anyone know what is the usage of kernel-milestone2-uk_2.2.1-froyo from tezet

After intalling CM10 by tezet, I find that I still prefer the CM7 by tezet. So I decide to install CM7 instead CM10. But when I installed CM10, I installed kernel-milestone2-cn-2.3.4-4.5.3.
So my question is that whether I need install kernel-milestone2-uk_2.2.1-froyo before installing CM7?
Thanks in advance.
same question here hope some one could shed some light.
before i went to cm10 i was on stock froyo though 2.2.
You should be able to flash CM7 with that chinese kernel you flashed, just remember to do a full backup and full wipe, you're downgrading.
Get the 2.2.1 UK kernel and put it in your SD card, just in case something goes wrong even if you get into bootloops you should be able to get to the bootmenu.
If you still cannot get into bootmenu, recover your phone with an SBF.
Good luck

Yes, you need to instal this kernel, else you stuck on boot logo. It looks like new CM7 builds doesn't contains kernel.

although someone has answered you question,I wanna answer that again.
Yes,you mus install it before installing CM7.Kernel is most important. The whole system is complied with special kernel Version.

I didn't include kernel not on purpose Will fix this next time...
I'm with the same question so correct me if i'm wrong,
For all who want to downgrade from cm10 to cm7 and are using CH-GB kernel have to:
1 - flash Froyo Kernel
2 - flash latest cm7
3 - install gapps
My question is, can I install this kernel by "install from zip" mode?

If you want to install CM7 (.32) you need to downgrade to froyo but if you want (.35) you can install it over Aurora.
Sorry but can I ask why to revert back to froyo from Aurora?

That would not work.
Find official froyo
Unzip it and put into your sdcard like /dload/update.app
Close your phone.
Press vol+ vol- and power and keep until update screen.
After the successful froyo downgrade root it.
Copy cwm
Install cm7.
That simple.

I won't downgrade to Froyo, I just wan't to try CM7, and in CM7 install instructions downgrading to Froyo is mentioned, so I tought I will have to downgrade to Froyo and then install Cm7.
Thanks for all answers, will try installing CM7 35 right now.
EDIT:Can someone link me to CM7 .35 thread?

There are atleast three dev topics in the forum. One from genokolar and if i am not wrong there is a kernel dev for ezet's cm7.2 .32 by Paul*.
But... All of them are onhold or ended dev. And they all have bugs. So. What i am trying to say is if you want bug free cm7 then you should try ezet's .32

Sorry, for late answer...I didn't see any major differences...actualy I was more pleased with aurora, but I always got atleast 2 reboots a day on Aurora, so thah is the reason I tried CM7.
Now I have one more question...How do I get to stock GB now? I changed recovery.img when I was installing CM7, so do I need to change recovery.img to stock, and then "update" with official GB, or can I just directly "update" to official GB without changing recovery.img to stock before?
Thanks for your help
