2. unlock the device
3. flash

And I'm good to go? I guess what I'm scared about is if I am half way through flashing and something goes wrong (file corruption, application frozen, power loss) and I'm stuck with a half-flashed device. Is there a way to rescue a device if it's in this predicament?

Cheers, Dave
99% of the time if that happens you can usually get it back into bootloader mode. there were a couple ROMs that I made that were corrupt or something and it stopped bout 75% done and all I had to do was put it back in bootloader mode and reflash it and it worked fine. it really is hard to brick these vogues.
