Re: First time flashing TP2!

Have you unlocked yet? you'll need to prior to flashing a custom rom.

I too, have been looking at 'bigmaxsense' rom. It looks awesome....or possibly beyond awesome. However, and I am glad I waited, there seem to be some serious bugs that need to be worked out. For this reason, I would not recommend your first flash to this, being a 'buggy' one.

If you want a highly customizable rom, packed with very tasty tidbits, and huge stability, go with Mighty's SE rom. At least for your first, then play around if you want, but it is fast, customizable, and stable. Stable is really what you want to get your feet wet.

the things you want to look for to research are:

stable
customizable
task 29 (read, then re-read)
cookie's home tab

Anyway, above all, have fun and listen to the pro's (that's definitely not me-I'm just giving you my .02 worth - well 1/2 cent after taxes)

Two weeks ago, my TP2 crashed on me, not sure what happened. TouchFLO just stopped loading up after a reboot. So, I hard reset, but forgot to save my contacts. PITA it was, but I got over it...

So, I have my eye on BigMaxSense ROM. Which I am currently downloading, and reading through the thread post for ideas on what to expect. I guess, my ultimate question in this thread is, are there any important, or suggested tools you guys can recommend me that may not be obvious or posted up in the threads?

I'm on a stock Winmo6.1 Sprint rom currently, I downloaded both the stock rom, and the 6.5 rom (sprint also) for backup incase something goes wrong. So I should have reverting covered.

Just looking for tips here for a noob flasher! (Hurr, that sounds pervy)

Thanks in advance!
