I have ROM Manager Pro installed and I really want to try to flash a new ROM.
Can any one give me a step by step on how to flash a new ROM??
and then how to revert back to the old ROM if I dont like the new one??
I have created a NAND Backup, I have backed up all my apps and my pictures and everything... I am just scared if I flash a new ROM and do not like it - I will not know how to flash the stock ROM back on to the phone...
I know I am probably a pain in the ass here on the forums...but any help any one is willing to give me would be greatly appriciated!!

Check the link in my sig, that whole thread is useful, but I put together a detailed walk-through in flashing your first rom once the phone is already rooted. Report back if you still have any questions after you check out that thread.

WOW - that was awesome!! Thanks for all the info... Now I think I am ready to flash my first ROM... how ever - now I am wondering about kernels and all that - do you by chance have a walk through for doing that as well??

no prob, glad you liked it To flash a kernel, you would use the same steps you used to flash the rom, except instead of wiping all three, you'll just be wiping cache and dalvic cache (and not the Wipe data/factory Reset option). Make sure you've booted up into your new rom before you flash your new kernel and you should be ok.
Cool, sounds simple enough
Hi!
I'm using redux 1.0.2. and i want to update it.
But the problem is that i have no idea what to do and i dont want to get my phone bricked.
So can please someone tell me what to do?
thank you
If it's the same rom, just flash it unless instructions say you need to wipe. If it's a different rom do a full wipe. Depending on how confident you are do a nandroid before changing.
aha so i just need to go to recovery mode and flash it from sd card?
thank you
i have HTC wildfire. using CyanogenMOD 7 for past 2 months. want to install Splash ROM now. i have some queries & want to be sure before doing anything.
1. do i need to remove CyanogenMOD completely before i install other ROM ?
2. if i unROOT my phone again will i be able to re-ROOT it ?
3. if i just flash another ROM from ClockworkMOD Recovery, will it be installed properly ?
please guide me.
Depends the rom you want to install, some roms require you wipe first, so check the rom installation requirement for any specific one you want to install.

Could not find or just can't be bothered to look? there are plenty of guides on xda and hundreds if not thousands if you search google for a guide on how to flash a Rom!!
Basically if your flashing a gb Rom over a sense Rom a full wipe is needed.
However if the 2 roms are from the same base i.e cm7 and a cm7 rip-off chances are you might get away without wiping anything, do a backup first if it doesn't work without wiping anything, just wipe cache and dalvik cache but leave data alone. If that still doesn't work try again with a full wipe.
As for the guide its pretty simple, backup wipe then install from zip.

ofcourse i do know how to flash a ROM !!
that's how i installed CM7 !!
thanks for answering my 1st query
i would give it a try now.
Q2. If you unroot it you can reroot it again afterwards but I don't see any point unrooting.
Q.3 is basically the same answer as Q.1.
First of all, I don't know that much about ROMS but I know that they will make you save battery and let you customize it better. I just don't know how to install the correct and best ROM for my device. I would like some help with this and need someone to explain everything about ROMs please. Thank you in advance.

First, there is no correct or best rom for a device. You find a rom that has the features that you want. The "best" rom will be different for most everybody. Just flash a rom, try it out. When you get bored, nandroid the current rom, then flash another rom. Repeat until you're satisfied. Some people are just too chicken **** to mess around on android phones, but barring complete idiocy (like flashing an ill-matching rom) or an EFS corrruption, you won't screw anything up.
As for the "explain everything about roms," go onto the home page of the XDA forums. Go into each "general" forum of each phone subforum and I GUARANTEE you will find a newbie [GUIDE] to android/roms/flashing/anystupidnewbquestion.

One more question. What is the adama kernel? I want to install the sonic team rom but don't know if to still the adama kernel. It is optional
I'd recommend against it. Until you know what "normal" behavior is for modded roms, you don't want to convolute the whole thing by modifying the kernel as well.
Basically what you do is make a backup in clockwork mod recovery and then put the rom on the root of your sd card then you reboot back into recovery then do the wipe data/factory reset then you wipe cache then go in to the advanced tab and wipe dalvic cache then go to install zip from sd card and install the rom and then once again wipe cache and dalvic then fix permissions and reboot then your good

Yes thats about right. Normally no gapps on touchwiz roms. But there should be instructions on the thread if your unsure Remember to back up!
Yeah, make a nandroid backup first, wipe data/factory reset and flash.
What I also do is install Titanium-backup in CWM. I came from a Galaxy S and could even restore all my apps on the Note2. Was like my old phone, only much bigger Good luck!
Thx guys i wanne give it a try tis week hope it works haha ^^,
