Re: OMJ's HTC EVO 2.2 Custom ROM v3.2 | FroYo 3.28.651.6 | *Updated 9/19/10*

OMJ-looks like you may need to get back into the kitchen soon:
NEW OTA OUT 9/22/10 - 3.29.651.5

Hopefully there's more to it than is listed in the link but even if not, item #3 is worth it!

Of course since it says it's an OTA (if true) DONT accept it

In a nutshell.
That is it in a nutshell-assuming you want to use ROM Manager but it does leave out a critical (IMO) step-wiping. While it may not be needed for every flash I would certainly say it is for the first flash. Factory reset 2X's and wipe Dalvik cache 2X's before flashing the ROM. You are able to do this from ROM Manager but there is some question as to whether Dalvik is wiped correctly from ROM Manager/Clockwork Recovery.
Which begs some questions-such as what recovery are you running and what ROM are you on now-stock rooted I assume? Do you have a lot of data/apps you want to take to the next ROM? You may want to back it up with an app like Titanium Backup (there are others)
Read the first few posts here:

It's mainly about the root process but the bottom of Post #2 covers flashing a ROM.
