Re: OMJ's HTC EVO 2.3.3 Custom ROMs | GingerBread 4.12.651.1 | *Updated 5/22/11*

OK what am I missing? I downloaded the latest GB ROM. Put it in the root of my sd card. Clicked on it to install and it wants me to open either es file explorer or rom manager. I go with rom manager and then it asks for pre-installation checks *Backup Existing ROM, Wipe Data and Cache, Wipe Dalvik Cache I select all three* then it just seems to sit there. How do I know it's doing anything? I don't remember it being this much trouble the last time I flashed.

The way to flash roms hasn't changed b4u2. You should read up on how to do it. Wouldn't want you to brick your phone.

Use amon ra recovery. You can get it in the ROM Manager app. Just flash alternate recovery. To flash the rom, you power down your phone. Press vol down and power at the same time. select recovery. wipe, data factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache. return and select zip file. select the zip file on your sd card and go.

Nice rom, love Sense 2.1, 4G works very nicely, but I have a few other issues. Sorry if these are posted already but I didn't see them:

1) Some apps immediately force-close on boot. Example: ShootMe. I haven't had this issue on any other ROM. Is this a Sense 2.1 compatibility thing? The built-in Weather app sometimes force-closes and sometimes works.

2) Stock messaging app no longer has an option to limit the number of saved messages. I used to have mine set at 200, now they just keep piling up.

3) System clock will randomly run fast, even though it is set to sync with the network. I'll let it run for awhile, then look and it will be like 9-10 minutes fast. If I go to Date and Time settings, uncheck Automatic, then check it again it corrects itself. Then sometimes it will get fast again, sometimes it won't. Seems to be at random.

Any thoughts?
