Default Rooted and Flashed no USB now what?

Hey guys....I hope someone can help me out here....I'm rooted and flashed to CM7...absolutely love it....but down the road I might want to flash other roms or kernals but since my USB isn't working how do I go about doing that?


I do have a micro SD card reader that I've used to upload pics etc...can I realistically throw the zip file onto the SD card through the card reader and then put it on my phone and flash it there?

I only ask because I thought it is probably smart to revert to stock if you re-flash and since I can't go back to stock I don't want to screw this up....

Thanks in advance.

No need to go back to stock just follow these steps for every flash..
1) enter cwm recovery
2) wipe data/factory reset
3) wipe cache
4) wipe dalvic cache
5) flash rom of choice
6) reboot and enjoy

Unless other wise noted those are the flashing instructions for virtually every rom, although every once in a while its good to go all the way back to stock...
