Everyone is a 'newbie' once. Read and observe. You'll learn from the masters. Most of us have patience with newbies, but don't push your luck.  Search is your friend. You can find most answers by searching. However, be careful and read fully before you flash your phone. It's helpful to start reading the stickied threads and then pawing through the ROM threads. Read before you post a question. It may have already been answered a dozen times already. |
Welcome to Geekdom! Can't emphasize the above warnings enough. Make sure you have a good understanding of your device and it's capabilities, as well as confidence in your abilities before you attempt to flash a new ROM. Spend lots of time on the forums related to your device, as there's a tremendous amount info to absorb, both relating to your device and WM in general. Don't be in a hurry to cook/flash a custom ROM. The last thing you want to do is turn a perfectly good PPC into a $400 doorstop.
