Thanks very much, if you could do this, this would be greatly appreciated.
Steps laid out clearly makes me feel more safe I won't end up stuck part way through and without a phone for a few hours or a day until I can figure out what I did wrong
Also, I see a lot of talk on CWM 5.5....
I have "ROM Manager" installed on my phone from the market and it is currently v5.0.0.6 and is up to date via market. Is this not a perfectly fine option for flashing this ROM.
Your clarification is greatly appreciated.
Ok here it is from the point that you said you have unlocked bootloader and rooted.
1.Go into Recovery by restarting into it. Do a backup.
2.Restart phone and dl Flash GUI App 99cents on market
3. Put Rom on root of sdcard
4.open Rom zip and copy the Boot.IMG and place it on root of your sdcard too.
5.Go to Flash GUI app and choose kernel then browse to ex_sd card and choose the Boot.IMG
