Have i done something wrong? how can i correct this? I know its a pain seeing questions like this time and time again but Im just trying to learn here. Thanks
this is what I did to flash a custom rom..

- did a nandroid backup
- download the zip file of the custom rom you want and put it in the root of your sd card.
- go into recovery mode
- select wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- go into advance and wipe dalvik cache
- install zip from sdcard
- select custom rom zip file

after the phone finishes flashing the custom rom it's going to take awhile to load up for the first time so be patient.

goodluck!
