Now what?
 
OK, so after having my 700WX (VZW) for almost a year, I decided to make the big leap and make my 1st custom ROM flash to Landon.Epps Full ROM (http://discussion.wmexperts.com/showthread.php?t=164457). Followed the instructions to the letter. Everything went well. Restored my device using my most recent SPB Backup file. Other than some memory savings, my device looks and acts like I haven't done a thing to it. Am I missing something?

:scratch:

Go to Settings/System/About/Version and make sure that you updated from WM5.

Hmmmm...I'm thinking you missed a step. Try it again.

I'm not sure... but maybe spb had something to do with it... i would do it all over again and follow Coz's instructions to check the version of your OS BEFORE you restore your data... let us know

good luck

I'll give that a go. When restoring via SPB, should I restore the registry as well? I seem to recall reading something about not doing that.

restore? no. 1) flash 2) hard reset 3) reinstall apps recustomize your phone. your lucky your phones working after restoring wm5 backup OVER wm6.

Thanks, that clears things up some

So after flashing the ROM and doing a hard reset, you're recommending that I do a clean install of the apps I want back on my device? I'm assuming that restoring my PIM data from a back up would be OK.

personally i'd sync a copy to the computer (or use Dashwire) just in case ;-)
