Re: OMJ's HTC EVO 2.1 Custom ROM v1.6 | Eclair | *Updated | 6/28/10*

When I moved to EVO and Android, like most I was so impressed with the simplicity of the OS that I swore I would never need to go back to "war" as it were. But alas, within days, the need to tether was upon me. That, mixed with horrendous battery life drove me to dive in to OMJ. Rockin work dude! I just have a few questions I am unclear on. Maybe someone can help an old vet...

1. To load a new rom, do I just go back to recovery mode, wipe twice on both, and load new zip? Or do I need to do all three steps?

2. How do I load a new radio? If I load 1.6, does that do it?

Thanks in advance for the help!
1. Yup, wipe and flash. You may want to do a NAND backup first-its a COPY of the ROM image, not a settings backup.
2. New radio is flashed like a ROM without the wipe, just flash. No, 1.6 does not update the radio

Cant speak to 4G as it's not here yet. For Wifi try to uninstall/reinstall from the Market. That has worked before.

EDIT: Same question I posted below-I assumed you meant Wifi tethering? Is that it?

@ALL-after flashing 1.6 I got greedy and applied Calks Wimax update eventhoug I dont have 4G. Got greedy and paid for it

I LOST ROOT.

No biggie, just gotta redo but thought I'd warn y'all to proceed with caution as far as the Calk radio update goes. At least one other user had the same experience.
