Negative, you still have to format your card and install apps2sd or have apps2sd do it for you from what I understand. I'm down to 20mb of internal storage and this was AFTER I took out alot of the bloatware. Just checked my programs and it's not in there.

So i'm gonna try A2SD and see what my internal storage changes to.

well idk y urs is actin funny... i dont get force closed on anything... maybe trying again... i know i loaded the sounds and enhanced content right after loading the rom, letting it boot on its own, then restarting it again... everything i had before works perfect...

Do I need the enhanced and sounds? I can't just use the core? How do you add those, is that the same way as flashing a new rom?

[buck1623]

yes, just like picking the zips when doing the core, do the same for those 2 files as well...

I dont think so, I rooted.. flashed the recovery rom.. then this rom and it seems to be working well..

One thing that confused me coming from WM is that it didnt hard reset my unit after the flash.. is this normal?

I will try again at lunch I still have the rom. Force close issues were with Google apps, maps, and android phone. No one had this? Does this rom include the Google apps like gmail, n maps that cyanogen had 2 remove?

Right, this ROM installs over the old one but doesn't erase all your apps/data.

If you want a COMPLETE clean install then backup all your apps and contacts (if you don't have it synced with google or exchange) and then do a clean wipe and install the custom ROM. Then you can just reinstall all your apps and resync your contacts back to your phone. However you will loose all your phone settings and dictionary words.

This is the reason why I just flashed Modaco's ROM over my backup.

I had actually done a complete wipe then installed the ROM cuz I thought that's what fixed my wifi tether issue (it still didn't work after I flashed Modaco's ROM) and it did but I lost all my settings and dictionary.

So I flashed my backup, uninstalled wifi tether, then flashed Modaco's ROM and the wifi started working fine. Turns out, at least for me, having wifi tethering already installed prior to flashing the custom ROM somehow did not allow it to work.
