SCREENSHOTS

Install Instructions (assumes already unlocked):

It is highly recommended that you start with a full wipe from a known good installation of the N73G stock binaries. *

• GwT RC1 (and older releases) requires a base install of JOP40D
• GwT RC2 and RC3 require a base install of JDQ39
• GwT RC4 and RC5 require a base install of JWR66V
• GwT RC6 requires a base install of JWR66Y

If you don’t know how to get to this initial state or how to proceed on your own bypassing this step then you have no business installing this ROM.

Since RC1 I have converted to a CWM/TWRP Recovery based install. *Download the GwT zip file and place it in the root of your sdcard directory. *Boot into CWM or TWRP recovery, select the GwT zip file and allow it to install.

Once the install is complete if unsure of next steps or problems occur perform a Factory Reset of your N73G. *

Reboot and allow GwT to fully boot.

Optionally, install the recommended Google Apps package referenced below.
