I personally haven't done it, but from what I understand you should be able to on both counts. Back up first, just to be safe.

Need someone to test my CM10.1 build

Hi i just setup a fresh build environment in ubuntu 13.04, and i wanted to make sure everything was working so i decided to build for an officially supported device rather than mine (which is unsupported). I synced the CM10.1 repo (today) and compiled. I have made no changes...its just stock CM10.1.
If someone with some free time could try this out to make sure it boots and nothing seems weird, that would be awesome. I just want to confirm that ive got the basics down, before i start to build for unsupported devices.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks. Im pretty sure it wont brick your phone.
It compiled perfectly with no errors, so it should work fine. And like i said its just cm10.1 with no changes. :good:
Just be sure to make a nandroid first, and then after trying the rom, restore it.
Thanks again.

Also you did a full wipe before flashing right?

Nope, but your apps will be erased using the RUU. So use the backup if you want to keep them.

Software Update

anyone else get the prompt to update the software? are you going to update?
Got it and did it 2 days ago
Same and same
probably too early to know, does anyone know if this update will affect root? coming from htc, i remember updates were frowned upon as they can make rooting more difficult.

below is the link I used. The battery drain is bad but manageable. I think it puts the wrong recovery on the phone, but it does root the phone. I was able to use titanium again :highfive:
