Totally agree!

Example:
You can say, use UC... but what happens when you place something in your SDConfig that hoses the whole process.... and you know you're gonna do it a couple times while testing. An easy way to recover from that (which there is) needs to be put with the "use UC" comment!

Man we could all pitch in and make a true wiki for the first few posts... then we could totally refer people to portions of that when the same questions get asked!

That would rock!

yeah... do it, do it!

UPDATE #14.5: The Rev C Kitchen has been rebuilt and is functioning as intended now. I have tested on 5 of the 6 major sys files downloaded from my site. All flashes were fine! I will be working ona ROm to introduce the new SYS files. I will be an R4R Styled ROM.

Back to work for me......

Unlimited is not truly that though.... read the fine print... you will be charged if you go over 5GB in a months period.
So be careful, with that!

Otherwise they cannot tell if you are surfing from a phone or computer.

Or what about even unlocking the phone to begin with it says plug in usb and and run program oops. But the phone disconnected and it wont run it. There are countless problems that might happen. Sorry to mention Scott but example say some guy unlocks the phone and follows the instruction to flash his rom not knowing that Sott's latest build was corrupt while running windows 7 losing his internet. He would cry and then i would .

Aldor, Please note that I said LEARN, not "PLEASE HELP ME, I"m Lost"....there is a difference, but Scott was gracious enough to supply me with a quick answer.

PS: Just joking

Thanks for the tip...I have a hard enough time reading the large print, not to mention the time I have with the fine print.f

GPS
trackme
UC
Kitchens
Cooking
Roms
ceregedit
I'm going to spend some time building a complete "how to" with screen shots for those who are in the same boat as me. It will take a day or 2.

I suggest your next learning experience is learning SASHAMI (see post 1206 for links). Although I haven't LEARNED it yet, I am impressed with it's capabilities. It allows both automatic and manual installations of cabs, plus you can put the apps on the SD card, which you can't do with UC. After you learn it, you can teach me.

UUUHHHHH its on now. Yeah be careful unlimited is just a funny way of saying i got you sucka after you go over the cap. Mr. Tooth is right about that. I use phone as modem only when i am like at an airport or away from home. Besides that it should not be used as an everyday internet, hey that should be in the tutorial aswell.

I like your idea on including problems that might occur, but if you are the one flashing and have a problem and I don't.... kinda hard to write a proceedure for that ya know?

so, I've completed the text piece, and am going to put pretty pictures in my how to document. I'm waiting on approval from Scott and Ted before I post it. I want to verify accuracy and ease to use. Want a look at it?

No promises that its perfect.....
