[Q] How to flash a ROM steps for TB

---

I am new to rooting and I wanted to flash another ROM other than the stock one after rooting. I followed the steps given to root my TB and that was cake. Thanks for the simplicity. I am now looking to add the Virus ROM but not 100% confident in how to do this. There are several steps given for other devices but I have yet to see one for the TB. If someone could point me in the right direction or link me to the actual steps that would be appreciated.

1. Install Clockwork Recovery
2. Boot into CWR
3. Select "wipe data/factory reset"
4. Select "yes -- delete all data"
5. Go back using the softkey
6. Select "install zip from sdcard"
7. Select "choose zip from sdcard"
8. Find and select your desired ROM
9. Reboot

Download the rom you want which will be store on your phones SD Card in Downloads then make a Backup of the rom you have now . Go into Rom Manager and select backup current Rom , you'll get a pop up were you can name the rom whatever you want , let it do it's thing , it will backup then restart the phone. When the phone restarts go into rom manager again and select Install Rom From SD Card , it will take you to your SD Card where you'll go into Download where the rom is stored , select the rom you downloaded you'll get a pop up which will ask if you want to wipe , check wipe and then ok . Let it do it's thing again when it down it will restart and ask you to set up you accounts just follow the steps . When everything is set up go in to the market and select My Apps you should see all your application downloading give them some time to download. Then it's all up to you to set up your home screens .

Don't forget to wipe the cache partition , and also select advanced and wipe dalvik cache. I would do all the steps listed above and these 2x, just to be on the safe side.

Where can I find those options?

I'm new to Android but have some experience with rooting on other types of devices. I'm looking at flashing this ROM with ROM Manager and the process above: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1041514

I think I understand what's happening on the phone when I do this but wanted to make sure. Other than the usual disclaimers about risk of bricking, is there anything else I need to know?

just in case you didn't know how you hold volume down and the power button to get to hboot and then pick recovery from there. otherwise if you just want easy download rom manager from the market
