Installing new ROM Question???
 

Is there a Rom that i can install without flashing my phone??? I am not sure on the flashing process but really want to try Mighty Rom? And and all help appreciated.

well, the definition of putting a new rom on your phone is flashing it. it's really not difficult to flash it though. i did it for the first time today to my new TP and it was cake. (of course, i flashed my vogue and treo back in the day, but it was a slightly different process)
i see you have a CDMA TP, so follow the directions here and then here
i prefer the sd card method

yeah be sure to read the stickied threads about flashing roms first, its a breeze once you unlock your phone. and everyone here is super supportive for any questions u may have, but you cant install a rom without flashing your phone cuz installing a new rom is flashing it. unlock your phone here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42503 first if you want to flash a new rom. just be sure the rom is CDMA and not GSM if ur on sprint

Once you do it once, itll be a breaze, then itll be an addiction my friend. happy flashing.

the sd card method that i posted seems to be a whole lot easier and less hassle, that's why i prefer it over the PC method

I never said it wasnt a good method, i just prefer to have my cabs and roms and all that good stuff on my sd card and pc. but I know what u mean sd card is awesomeness!!!

There really is nothing to flashing.

I was scared to death the first time I did it way back when, when you see posts that start "I bricked my phone" it can make you pretty nervous.

The thing is, it's almost impossible to "totally brick" a phone just by flashing if you're careful. Any situation you find yourself in, there is generally a fix for it & somebody here will walk you through it.

Once you see how easy it is, you'll be doing it all the time. I am finally done flashing my TP (I'm running Mighty 4.16/telus radio, everything works perfectly & I have it set up exactly the way I want) but I bet I tried 30 other ROM's first...........

As far as sd card method or USB, that's just a matter of personal preference (both ways work just fine).

I have done it both ways myself & the only time I use the SD card flash is when something is messed up & my LT won't recognize the phone & sd is the only choice.
