You also need to mention that zip file should be renamed to "PG86IMG.zip"

Hey Guys I was just wondering what app are you using to do an nandroid backup? I have a ton of apps on my 3D and want to make sure that everything is backed up before I do all of this fun stuff.
Thanks.

You can't nandroid before root. That is a function of the recovery you flash in the process. Use MyBackup from the market to save stuff you want.
If you temp root, Titanium backup is good too. If you do temp root be sure to factory reset in the settings before rooting to clear out the temp root changes. If you don't you may have problems on the other side.

guessing this means I have to wait for a newer version?

Found your device: PG86100 (shooter-1.50.0000, Android: 2.3.4, ROM version: 2.08
.651.2)

Your device: shooter, with HBOOT 1.50.0000 is not supported at this time.
Press (almost) any key to exit.

I knew I shouldn't have taken the HTC bait.

Please prominently post when a fix for HBOOT 1.50 is found! I am wanting to use your OMJ ROM!
Thanks!

Hi OMJ,
I am stuck at the S-off install step.
The revolutionary.exe runs fine.
It finds my device and beta key is accepted.
I get a message like this:
Beta Key Accepted-Thanks for participating.
Zerging root....this might take a minute or so..

But nothing happens after that. I have waited for an hour...no booting of my device as you have mentioned.
Please help

The program hangs when “waiting for the system to settle.” -OR- the program says “Communications with phone unexpectedly interrupted.”
Uninstall any programs that may connect to the phone over USB and automatically sync. Specifically, we have had interference from HTC Sync and Doubletwist in the past; other programs may also cause trouble. Try reinstalling the drivers, if all else fails (or use Linux, which has a 99% less sucky USB stack).
