Is there an update to go from 1.6 to 1.7?
What is the easiest way to do this? I hate upgrading a Rom, and losing all of my information.
I hate re-installing my apps etc. Any suggestions? Thanks

Most of the time you don't NEED to wipe everything when upgrading say 1.6 to 1.7.

But if you wanted to. Make a nandroid. Wipe, flash Rom, do a advance restore. It'll restore all your apps and settings.

some people get mixed results. Coming from the Samsung epic. I've rarely wiped that at all.

If you make a big jump from like ics to jb or vis versa, then a full wipe is a good idea.

The update from 1.6 to 1.7 worked without wiping all of my data.
Thanks Speed.
And thank you Phantom Hacker for all of your work on this Rom!
