Original DINC rooted never used ROMs

[DocLovesDroid]

Hello!
I am new to this forum. I have an original DINC and have had it rooted for about a year. I have never been brave enough to use custom ROMs but I find myself bored with the phone the way it is!
I'm looking for a step by step guide to flashing ROMs, backing up data, etc.
I use wireless tether all the time and don't want to lose that in the process.
I also have tons of contacts, pics,etc.
Looking for some solid advice and someone to help if I get stuck!
Thanks!!

Flashing ROMs tutorial would be a great place to start.

Before you flash the ROMs, make sure you do nandroid backups first. Look at STEP 3 of this tutorial, http://www.incredibleforum.com/forum...ed-3-32-a.html.

In addition to the nandroid backups, you can also use Titanium Backup to make backups of your user apps so that you can restore them after you flashed the ROM of your choice. Here is a tutorial for TB, Titanium Backup How-To.
