So u just flashed the core n ur good? Yea with Android it doesn't hard reset on flash! How great is that!?

Yup, granted I havent used it much since I did all the flashing at 1am..lol and fell alseep with my phone in bed, wait that doesnt sound good..

wow no hard reset from flashing!!! im going to really love this phone more than I already do once more roms come out..

so, any noticeable differences between this and stock besides wifitether??? Any noticeable speed improvements??

IMO, im good with stock till we get an upgrade like 1.6, 2.0, or a MotoBLUR rom to test out the new UI

Props to the chef for already hooking up us affected by ROM withdrawal lol

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.

cool, so im sure there are certain instances where one might want\need to wipe and flash but normally its ok to flash over and retain all settings then? great !

At least for me there is a slight difference in speed. It's a tad quicker. Like the transition from portrait to landscape is faster. Scrolling through pages is a tad quicker too. But I also removed some of the sprint bloatware and JUST removed most of my apps and moved them over the the SD card. At least I think I did. Won't be able to tell till I get home and can check in adb shell.

But I'm glad I flashed even if for the wifi tethering alone.

Still an awesome tool but the SMS kill it for us US customers, Testing features around I've got like 8 SMS from Singapore... Im guessing the phone also send SMS out.
