HELP: flashing this Rom sounds easy. If i understand correctly, I'm flashing with the phone- no pc required? I'm used to flashing my HTC tp2, with my computer, but i have flashed via sdcard many times. This such a different process tho.

Do I need astro file manager to extract the zip? thanks in advance!

ok let me hook you up
first is your hero rooted? if so all you need to do is put the zip on the root of the sd card the turn your phone off and hold volume down and the end call button then home button and scroll to "install zip from sdcard" and click home button to accept done
if its not rooted then search for the sticky in the forum

I too had this problem. I came from fresh's earlier 2.1 rom. I wiped, installed the rom (2.4.0) and I was stuck with the dancing android. I wiped and reinstalled the 2.1 that I had been using for months and I got the same thing. a continous restarting dancing android screen.

I went over to XDA and I downloaded cyanogenmod 6. It's a 2.2 rom - It is working fine.

Hey flipz, tried your vanilla lockscreen fix, but it's scrambled like the before pic. Any ideas for this new rom. Thanks.
