As always don't forget to wipe if your rom calls for it to prevent issues.

Technically don't need to, but it's highly recommended in case you have a bad flash or decide you want to revert back. You can always delete old backups if you feel you don't need them anymore.

After you Flash a ROM...and if you do not like it or are bored with it, can you always go back the way you had it before you started this whole thing?

You can always easily revert to a backup of a previous ROM. If you're talking about unrooting, it's more involved but doable.

well what are you considered "set up" when all you did to your phone was root?

I don't really understand the question. Can you please clarify?

After you flash a ROM you will have to go through the "set up" process that was done when your phone was originally activated. If you restore to a previous backup this will not take place. It will restore the phone to the exact state it was in when you made the backup.

Just letting you know after following your directions I have successfully flashed my first ROM Redemptive rEVOlution ...only thing I am trying to figure out is how to install a patch now that I have the ROM (Sexy Sense 2.0 NO BRANDING Patch 2.0 NO BRANDING Patch)


Other than that all of your directions are great! Thanks!
