The best chance for a successful flash is to wipe your phone. Like OMJ said in his v1.5 DL post, some may say it's not needed but if you run into hiccups you'll need to wipe and reflash anyway so it's best to back up your settings with something like Titanium backup which is included in the ROM.
I just did it and it's n00b-easy  Take your time to walk through the app you'll get it. There is an option to run your backups in a batch file so you dont have to do them one-by-one.
For your Wifi FC's just uninstall/reinstall the app from the market.
Nand backup does NOT backup your Settings, it backs up the ENTIRE ROM.
So if you Nand backup v1.4 and flash v1.5 but restore that Nand you'll be back to v1.4.
It's a failsafe in case something goes wrong with your new flash or you simply want to go back to the previous version. |
Thanks for clearing up my questions. Ill try to un-instale and re-install the wifi tether app as well to see if that works. Now you promted another question since nad back up only backs up the rom. What can I use to back up all my settings or at least most of my settings? I dont mind needed to re sign into accounts and what not but going threw and changing my sound notifacations to diffrent things and setting things to viberate or setting diffrent settings in my apps well thats all a pain in the a$$. I donated for the titanium back up so I have the paid version. I already used it to back up couple of my apps but I havnt used it to try and back everything up yet. Is it possible to use it to back everything up so it saves my settings for all my apps as well. Or better yet when I back up and app does it save the current settings? I mean if I change the setting is say my snes rom and then back it up, will the back up have the new settings or will it have the original settings?
Thanks again, I wont forget to hit that thanks tab either.
Edit: Also what you are saying is that basicly when I want to update to the new rom I need to flash it and not use Rom Manager because if I flash it its the only way to garante no hickups?
