You are going to have to flash the modem with Odin since its a Froyo release, so there's one more step you need to learn.

He should already have the modem as he flashed the update.zip ota...all he needs to do is run the 1 click root/clockworkmod and install the rom.

---------------------

In my personal opinion I think you should give it yourself a shot and if anything ask for suggestions..you don't have to go crazy on learning everything at once..little by little wins the race...if you pay someone to do it, are you going to pay to update it every new version? are you going to pay someone when things go wrong?

But hey its your choice..just giving my 4 cents (inflation)

@Johnny: Your feedback on the midnight rom is REALLY, thank you.

Darren graciously offered to help me on IM and even with his help every step of the way, it took us FOUR HOURS to get this done. We just got done now. It probably would have taken more than double the amount of time had I done this by myself. I dont know about you guys, but $25 is DEFINITELY worth 4 hours of my time.

In any case, thank you Darren for all the support. PM me your paypal email address.

P.S. Midnight ROM looks sweet.

Glad you got your Epic up & running.....Darren is an awesome guy that is always willing and more than happy to help others out. You don't get a rep score like he's got for nothing! He has definately helped me out of a jam more than once.

Have fun searching for a ROM you like! I'm currently running midNIGHT without any issue to speak of. I have also had good success using Viper's ROM. Just my 2 cents

Glad to hear it. And I bet you learned a lot.

Unfortunately, I just can't spare that kind of time nowadays. I'm willing to pay an EXPERT who's been keeping up with ROMs and the flashing process to help me root and flash my phone.

I flashed the originally-thought-to-be-OEM-DK28 on my phone and while it flashed correct, I've had nothing but problems since. It lags like a windows mobile 6.x phone now.

I've been wanting to root for a while so here's what I'm looking for:

* Full, step-by-step instructions on how to back up my data (if necessary), and then root and flash my phone to the fastest, most stable custom ROM available. I want to be able to complete the entire process in under an hour. Please make sure you are very well-versed in the different ROMs available -- do not just flash your first ROM and then send me directions on it.

* List of any potential bugs/instabilities I might need to be aware of.

* A tutorial (with links) on how to replicate these homescreens:

I'm willing to pay $25 or a bit more if you're local and can come to me (Temecula, CA area) to do it onsite. PM me if you have any questions or if you'd like to take the job.

if its feeling laggy i highly recommend "setcpu for root users" and set the main profile to "performance mode" 1000Mhz max 100mhz min and add a "screen off" conservative profile, and add a temp (conservative 200 max 100min) profile around 35 C so it can cool down before it over heats from running at full speed. at least thats what I have mines set too.. you don't have to copy me.. i mean im not telling you to over clock so your not at serious risk because your not pushinging your cpu past what is set by the manufacture. im just suggestion it because i noticed a huge improvement in addressing ALL lag by telling my phone cpu to always run at full speed when im actively using it. they more so have their scaling set to whatever for a mix of performance and battery life, tho i haven't really noticed a big negative impact having mines set to max.

Performance = it will always run at top speed.

Conservative = it will conservatively adjust as needed, but will go back down to the lowest speed otherwise.

batterysaver = will always preform at the lowest speed set.

Ondemand = simular to conservative just... less conservative so its faster at adjusting the cpu speed on the fly.

and userspace = some type of setting that allows you to manually set the scaling performance ... i'm not advanced so i don't bother it.
