Re: [ROM] - CleanROM 2.1 - Updated 7/26/11 - Overclocked, Ad Blocked, WiFi Hotspot!

First time for me. I'm excited, and a little nervous I'll screw it up.

So I need to manually erase my data before starting?

That probably answers my other question-- will I have to re-load all my data (photos, contacts, music) after getting all done? What about applications?

Yeah, I know the feeling of being nervous, trust me.

Make sure you followed all prerequisites outlined and you have back up of everything.

I would recommend doing a full factory reset while in Recovery mode right before flashing ROM. That way you get a truly clean ROM. You could flash over top of current ROM but that may lead to a mess depending on the ROM you had.

As far as pics and music. Nah, they should be stored on SD Card and that will be unaffected during flash process. Email and contacts... I dont know who you provider is but you will need to resync to the phone. If you use GMAIL this is no problem at all.

Let me know if you run into roadblock...

Edit: I also usually answer post quicker than this... At work right now and we are pretty busy.

I appreciate it!

I did a factory reset, before reading your reply, so I'm relieved now to read it.

Roadblock: Flashing the ROM now...
When I enter the SU command, permission is denied. Your pdf guide says I can't continue from here. What are my options?

My bad, I had a type in the guide. accrajoe pointed it out to me the other night but I did not get time to resolve....

Type "su" instead of "SU"

Sorry again for slow response. Leave work in 1.5 hours!
