i have caulkulins 1.8 rom and am looking to update my evo to 2.3 when it comes to the evo this week and i was wondering will this effect my custom rom? or can i update my evo to 2.3 with caulkulins 1.8 rom and still have caulkulins when i have 2.3?
No, think of this as updating your computer to a new OS. It's probably going to format -all, and install the new OS.
Much like when the Moment went from 1.5 to 2.1, there was in the instructions, it was noted that you'd lose all your settings and to make sure you synced your contacts, calender, etc before installing the update.
will it make my phone not be rooted?
Well, yeah, duh
Wat he said!! Lol, but wait a day tops n someone will have it rooted fir u to flash

Or just wait for a dev to release a custom ROM - shouldn't be long for a rooted stock flavor

Hello. How would I downgrade from Android 4.1.1 back to Gingerbread? I believe 2.2 or just Gingerbread in general is what I'm trying to get. With the new ROMs and Android screwing up my phone I cant get full potential with it. I currently have:
Model Number: Inspire 4G
Android Version: 4.1.1
Baseband Version: 12.39.60
Kernel: JellyTime with AOKP 7
Can anyone explain to me or link me to a video/thread on how to do this correctly? I would normally just re-install Gingerbread over Jelly Bean, but I don't know if I should do that and don't wanna risk bricking my phone.

Well, Download the Gingerbread Rom that you want. Then boot into recovery and wipe all partitions (except sd card) or wipe data factory reset. Then Install Zip from SD Card...which is the Gingerbread Rom...Let it install...Reboot. Done!
Thankyou, but which Gingerbread ROM should I download exactly? I am using the links from the Development List here. I have searched and so far this is the current I will be downloading. Hope im doing the right thing
Edit: I used the Infinity GB and I got an error after wiping my data and applying the update. Any help?

How are You trying to flash it? Check the guide in My signature to make sure that you are not missing anything.
Maybe the .zip is corrupt. Some good Gingerbread Roms are Android Revolution or Virtuous Unity.

Also Sense ICS Roms are fully working and smooth. For example my daily driver...Sabsa Prime.

I would recommend you flash Cyanogenmod 7.2 which is a gingerbread rom.

guys i am a noob in android phones. i just want to clarify some things before proceeding of having a custom rom. my current gn2 version is android 4.1.1 and i want to install a custom rom (omega 8.0 preferably). what i want to clarify is that, should i update my version to 4.1.2 first before installing the custom rom or i can directly install it right away without updating my phone's version. thanks!
no, custom rods build upon themselves. they are their own update

Can I / Should I use CyanogenMod updates (found in System Settings, About Phone) to update from CM10.0.0 to CM10.1?
I got a notification saying "updates ready"
I am currently running CM10.0.0. The update is CM 10.1-20130121-EXPERIMENTAL

No, you need to manually update to Cm 10.1. This is because you need to do a full wipe when upgrading (System/Data/Cache/Dalvik). You will also need the newest version of GApps (12/12/12). Also consider what happens to your InternalSD when upgrading to a 4.2 ROM in regards to the /0 mutiuser partitions.

If you wanna make the jump, be sure to backup first. A full wipe will be needed.
You're currently on 4.1.2 so it's quite a big jump to 4.2.1 (a lot of new features, different UI, etc.) - Anyway, after a full backup, you should be good to update if that's what you want to do.
PS.: 4.2.1 has a borked BT audio streaming. If you use it a lot, there's a flashable zip called 'revert my alsa' in the CM10.1 thread to fix it.
Hello. I'm running the stable build of cyanogenmod 10, and am thinking of updating to the stable of 10.1. Can I just do the dirty flash instructions to update, or do I need to do a brand new clean flash, and start over. I've used the search bar, but can't seem to find anything specific to this. Thanks

Without looking anything up....I believe 10.1 is 4.2.2 and 10 is 4.1.1...or something like that....so no.....dirty flashing would be bad!
Sorry, you gotta clean install.
