SPB backup can do it, and the OEM does work in this kitchen. The only problem is in the system settings where you can have conflicts with the new OS. I have used it to restore everything in the 3.5 kitchen, but run into problems with stuff I didn't reinstall becoming "phantom" shortcuts. Easily solved by deleting, but registry errors really spooged everything and I had to reflash and do a partial restore leaving out the system files. This new kitchen is so good I don't mind re-entering a few things. Tiermann's OEMizer helps a lot in the process by allowing you to add in personal settings, etc. Look in the Tools folder, it's in there.

Hmmmm... I seem to be running out of ROM memory fast with minimal extras installed. :(

Overclocking any device is always a risk as you are forcing it to run faster than it was intended to, but then again, you wouldn't use custom roms unless you were willing to take risks :)

As a general rule of thumb, you're ok overclocking, but use more battery. I have been running my apache at 520 for quite some time now with no adverse reactions.

Yes I had a look through the verizon 3.3 cabs and added anything that was relevant (almost nothing) to the verizon extrom OEM in the kitchen. I didn't increment the version number because, well I forgot :). I'll do that for the next release but for now rest assured that the verizon OEM is up to date.

I held off on including Arcsoft 4 until we get a well-tested fully working OEM. Even then it will only be offered for Verizon users (does not work for Sprint or Alltel). If anyone wants to proceed with that, go right head.



Please post what version of the bootloader you're running. Also try eliminating anything in between your PC and Apache (hubs, extension cables, etc) and try a different USB port on your PC.

I have an OEM for 4.2.8.1 that defaults to Verizon if you would be happy to look at it. Let me know where I should put it. Is there a way to just add it to the kitchen so I could do the testing? Sorry this whole kitchen is sooo overwhelming...wow!

Thanks,
