I didn't have to do anything special to load the rom except follow the root instructions and make sure oj's rom was on my memory card. But if you mess anything up and want to go back to stock, boot your phone into fastboot (power off phone, hold volume UP, power on), connect to computer, then run the file located in this thread, and you will be completely back to stock rom no root.

I don't know about them but all my apps are in the marketplace, i have no problems. but right after the rom is complete, go to wipe, and clear the davlic cache. wifi tethering needs to be tweaked a little bit, but this is not anything new. it is getting super user permission but just like with the htc desire something needs to be changed before the computer can access the signal.
