Re: Logic behind flashing phones multiple times

To solve this problem I flash back to sprint stock then run IOTA, then flash which ever custom rom I want and bang back in business. I'm not sure about flashing the same rom a couple time helps or not. I just know for a fact that flashing back to stock then flash the custom rom will cure some problems.
I'm not a techy or anything, this is just what I found in my flashing experience.
You'll save yourself 15-20min when you encounter an error in your ROM if you just do a hard reset. Flashing back to stock, hard-resetting, flashing back to your desired rom followed by a hard reset is not nessecary. If the radio that you have installed is compatable, and you didn't error out during the flash process, just do a hard reset of whatever ROM you have installed. Any issues you have will almost certainly be resolved after a hard-reset. (center button, volume down, depress stylus to reset for 5-10s. Volume down to confirm system wipe, voume up to restart).
