So I am going to flash for the first time. I got the unlocker, NRGZ's ROM (21895 w/cookie home tab), and the stock (just in case). A few quick questions. First, my current system - Stock Verizon ROM, TF3D 2.0, WM6.5(Duh)
1) The Add-on and Hot Fixes, What out of those do I need?
2) I am running several performace programs, will they be needed or work with this new ROM? They are:
AtomAng Enhanced D3D Driver
SSK TP2 Dynamic Resources
ShareRAMsize
3) I am also using cookie 4 columns start and all programs, I love having so many buttons for my programs right there in one spot (I added the shortcut tab). Will I need it or will it work with this ROM
4) I also added TCruz's Mega Color cab. Can I add color to this UI or will this cab work with this?
5) Swype. I have the old original cab, and want this to work with the new ROM. I keep reading its not working, or the 3.9 isn't? Will swype work or not?
6) can I get background on all pages, or is there a program like HDWalls that will work with it?

Sorry for all the questions, but only want to flash once, so am kinda 'shopping' around, looking at 'options' before I do this.
