Instructions - I have basically stripped everything out of this ROM besides a few 3RD app replacements that I added - If you have used UC then move all of your cab files and xml files to the root of your SD card. First before you install this ROM download the attached PIMBackup and put it in your storage card . Next run PimBackup and choose to backup your contacts, ect. A .pib file will be in the root directory of your sd card this is your backup from PIMBackup . Next install the ROM after the initial screen setup two screens will open . The First will be Tautoinstall and the next will be PIMBackup . From PIMBackup choose restore then go thru the restore process then exit , Autorun will finish the first of customizations . Next the Tautoinstall screen will popup from there check any cab files you wish to install into the ROM, Click install PIMBackup will open again just close it from the task bar by holding down the Pimbackup task until the close menu opens , Tautoinstall will continue to further customize your phone then reset . Finally after your phone resets enjoy.

If you find this ROM useful please post your experience and also say thanks .............

JD, is PIMBackup required? This Tautoinstall seems promising. First I have heard of it. If I understand it correctly, it will go to my SD card and find all cabs and xml files and will gie me a selectable list to choose which of those I actually want installed? If so, is there a way to have it look in a seperate folder other than the root? Is there a way to get around cabs that have pop ups during install?

I've have used it quite a few times in the past. It looks in a few locations one of them being \Windows. It also looks in a folder on your SD called Boot. Create that folder and put the cabs there. One thing I will mention is that the Tier Autoinstaller doesn't handle cabs well that require user input. You will only want to use cabs that require no input from the user.

This will kinda suck. Granted, I only have 4 or 5 apps that require user input. I like the fact that I would be able to pick and choose the stuff I want. If all the rom cooks ran this, it would help eliminate the multiple SDConfig files I have to seperate for each rom lol.
