ya ya, this should have been first. but we all wanted to play. but anyway here it is now.
this is the stock rom post OTA. added root (su and superuser.apk) as well as modified ramdisk (ro.secure=0) and busybox. Also zip aligned apps to optimize ram usage. there is odex (stock) and de-odex versions.
*i no longer see the reason for needing the pre-OTA rom. if you have a reason post up and we'll see what happens...
if you are upgrading from previous version of THIS rom you should not have to wipe, however you will still need to redo any system changes you have made, i.e. trackpad wake or notification lights.
Stock OTA kernel is now INCLUDED in rom flash. however if you want to flash an oc/uv/whatever kernel follow that post's instructions after this rom is up and running. i suggest pershoots kernels. been using his since the g1, awesome work. his g2 one has great performance AND battery life.(for me anyway)
These roms are g2 and dz compatible.
Cwm recovery recomended for ease and function.
1. Place stock rom of your choice on root of sdcard.
2. Boot into recovery
3. Do a nandroid backup.
4. Do a full wipe. (if coming from different rom)
5. Select flash zip from sd and select stock rom.
6. Once its finished, reboot and enjoy.

OTA bootv2 (kernel): http://www.4shared.com/file/y2NVlbJm/ota_boot_v2.html
*(only needed if you flashed a different kernel after the version 1.1 rom and want to go back to stock kernel. includes wifi module.)

theme template: http://www.4shared.com/file/VwINHT_r/theme_template.html
*theme template is for theme dev's only. it should be universal for any rom. just place the themed framework and/or apps in corresponding folders. i have a .txt file in the folders as a place holder, delete it after you add your themed stuff. take a look at the update script to see how it works, and to add or remove anything you need to...
change log:
v1.1:
fixed permissions and mismatched symlink issue w/busybox. (thanks to Mikey1022 for bringing this prob to my attn.)
v1.0:
initial release
Awesome thanks!! Do we have to flash a separate kernel if coming from Sense, and if so, do you have the stock kernel in a flashable .zip? Thank you in advance,
Russ
Nice work! good to have a base Rom to fall back on but why do we need three Roms for stock? why not just deodex the stock Rom with the OTA applied and be done with it? less work for you, right? I know this is quicker and will help folks who have boot looped/ soft bricked their phones. either way, good job and thanks!
Can I just remove the odex files along with the bloatware apk files from my current rom? I know they are both located in the systems/app folder.

Did you try booting? Ignore error, till i can get home from work and fix it. I usually do it in differeent order though. Full wipe, flash rom, get error, ignore. Reboot into fastboot and flash boot.img OR flash one of the aosp flashable kernel zip.

You need to wipe when going from rom to rom. Get cwm recovery and follow my instructions above.

So I performed a successful root last night of my Dinc and couldn't be happier it didn't brick! Now since I'm rooted, I have a few questions. Since I believe in fair play, I think I want to stay with the stock rom for now, and customize at a later date. I figure I should at least give it a fighting chance. Until then, I was wondering if I could at least install a custom boot animation, and a custom kernel.
Any decent out there for custom boot animation?
And is installing a custom kernel even possible with the stock rom?
By the way, I'm a new member, and look forward to gathering a lot of good information here. Thanks for having me!

Yes there are several kernals you can use. I currently have the following invisiblek kernal (download link)

I've been moving between Virtuous (a Sense ROM with a few needed tweeks), the current CyanogenMod nightly, and MIUI. All of which can be downloaded and installed through ClockworkMod's ROM Manager (available in the android market). Welcome and best of luck.

invisiblek is pretty much the AOSP version of incredikernel.
So to say what I said before to the OP, if you're going to stick with the stock ROM then make sure you don't flash an AOSP Kernel (including invisiblek) !
Thanks for the quick responses guys. I'm pretty new to all of this, so I am going to need a step by step guide on how to add the custom boot anime and custom kernel. If you could provide links to these guides, you would be life savers. Thanks again!

The guide for the boot animation should be in the link provided at the top of the post.
For flashing a Kernel, basically just download the file and place it in the root of your SD card (not in any folders).
Then boot into recovery (boot while holding down arrow, scroll over to recovery, press power button) and install .zip from SD card. You'll find where you put it, then apply it and it'll restart and you'll have your new kernel.

I looked around in that thread, and believe it only gives you links to download splashes or boot animations, but no actual step by step instructions
I started out like you... rooted then stuck around on stock for awhile. Once I started into my first ROM, I've tried several now. It will blow your mind!
For your future reference, Warm 2.2 and Warm Z are fantastic, and are both Sense roms you will recognize.
For something completely different, try MIUI.
I have root explorer, so does this sound like the right way to install my new boot animation?
"Mount your droid to your PC and place the bootanimation.zip file at the root of your sdcard. Then using root explorer navigate to your sdcard, long press on the bootanimation.zip file until a popup menu appears. Select "Move" or "Copy". Once you select one, "Paste" and "Cancel" buttons will appear near the bottom of your screen. Now, press the back button to move to the root of your file system. Then navigate to data/local/ and then press "Paste". You'll be prompted to overwrite the existing bootanimation.zip. Press "OK". Then reboot."
So basically, I find the file I want to use as my new boot animation, then rename it bootanimation.zip, and proceed with the instructions. Sound about right? But what about the sound I want to go along with it? How do I tie this in with the boot animation?

Also, When I use root explorer to look for the stock boot animation in data/local, it isn't there. I am using the stock rom on the dinc, so where is it???
Edit, I found the boot animation zip in system/customize/resource
So should I just move and paste my new boot animation here and label it VZW_bootanimation.zip like the stock one is labeled???

If I remember right, I mounted my SD card to my computer and just replaced it through my PC. I think the way you're doing it will work too, but best to get someone elses opinion since I changed mine weeks ago and don't fully remember how
you could also put the animation on your phone using the adb commands
adb devices
adb shell
cd /system/customize/resource
ls
(check for bootanimation.zip, if its there then delete it like so...)
rm bootanimation.zip
(then)
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource
If you find it being called VZW_animation.zip then rename the bootanimation.zip to that. Then delete the old one and push the new one in.
Pretty much the same dance if you're using terminal on your phone, you'd just have to cd to your sdcard and copy it to your bootanimation directory.
Also make sure you unmount system before you reboot if you use the adb route.
...wow can you tell I had some experiences making my boot animations work?
Do your self a favor and just go ahead and flash a new rom like incredibly re-engineered or something. I like the evo port in that rom a lot. I tried a few in the beginning and landed on this rom setup. Make sure you do a wipe first. Oh, always backup. Just do a quick backup of your stock rom, and then try out a few different roms. If you decide you'd like to stick with the stock rom, then just restore it and you're right back to where you were when you back'd it up.
Hey guys, did I flash a new kernel when I flashed incredibly re-engineered to my phone? Even if I have the stock kernel I still have no complaints with speed and I'm used to smartphone kind of battery life...I came from a windows phone...need I say more? Battery life is pretty darn good though, last the whole day, even when I've been using it a lot that day as an mp3 player or gps and wifi and what-ever. I even have the stock 1300 bat in her.

Yeah, I have a feeling I'm going to become addicted to swapping them out
Im actually on Deck's, but when I was using CM7 I had the same problem, and Deck is a fork... so yea.
Anyways, on most roms I simply flash a zip and then boom, I have a boot animation. For whatever reason on Deck's\CM7 however, it doesn't change and it stays the custom one made for the rom. Is this something cyanogenmod purposely did, or am I noob? Thanks!
Not all boot animations are flashable, they normally say if they are.
Take the bootanimaiton.zip that you want and:
A- adb push it to /system/media
B- use root explorer and move it to /system/media
Actually, the best place to put it on CyanogenMod is /data/local/, that way it'll be there even after you upgrade your phone's software (ie, from 7.0.2.1 to 7.0.3.1).
I appreciate both of your replies, still having odd issues. The zip is flashable... i have flashed it on other roms, yet when i flash it on CM the boot animation doesn't actually change. If I move the file to /data/local or /system/media, it does in fact change my boot animation, but it's not full screen - and the animation is definitely full screen when I flash it on other roms. Any ideas?

So, I've been looking at kernels to flash (stock ec05) and reading around on the different kernels, and I'm wondering if any of them work with a stock (rooted) rom. I used the ReRFS to get back to stock.
I've tried the syndicate kernel and got an infinite boot loop (tried several times)... Was barely able to get back.
I don't mind the stock interface (touchwiz), I would just like to be able to get the processor to 1.2ghz. Do any of the kernels work well with stock?
[edit] The only thing keeping me from staying on the custom roms is they all FC when I try to edit a contacts ringtone. I've tried pushing myfiles.apk (several myfiles.apk's from multiple sources), but it won't install. But like I said, I really don't mind the stock interface anyway.

I'm good with the simple stuff after blowing my phone up many times starting out. Just trying to give back to the community that helped me. Enjoy.
So it looks like I need to use the older cwm2 to use this kernel?
[edit] just in case someone else is wondering this as well. Use the older oneclickroot 2.5.5 if you're on stock. There's a bug (that is known) if you're on a stock that is not deodexed and uses ext4. Since the older cwm doesn't convert to ext4 we're good to go

As I understand it, the steps are:

4) Flash custom kernel
Is that right?

Switch 3 and 4. Flash the custom kernel then the boot ani. There are also custom shutdown ani's out there too. Use CWM 2.5.5.

I've tried 2 different file browsing apps, and even tried copying it directly there via wifi. None of which will let me copy the myfiles.apk into system/app

What are you using to move it? Root explorer automatically makes it read/write. You can use ES File Explorer from the market but you have to go into settings and enable root and write functions.

That's the app I use. Didn't know about the setting... Just moved the file there and rebooting. I really hope this allows me to change individual ringtones. If so, then I have no reason to stay with stock =)
Well, myfiles.apk is now in system/app and I rebooted the phone (also tried a shutdown), but still no luck. I still get a FC when assigning an individual ringtone :/
Buuut, I may be able to assign ringtones from the music player, and not the edit contact page. I'll try that
[edit] Yup, I moved my ringtones into my Music folder, and am able to assign a specific contact's ringtone via the music player

Is the FC in myfiles.apk? If so try clearing data in it. But either way at least you got it working.

android.process.acore is what FC's while doing it the normal way.
