    • CM Users please enable root access for ADB in: Settings -> Developer Settings -> Root Access, change it to allow Adb & Apps.
    • If problem exists for non-CM users use adbd Insecure
  • For Dealing with Boot.img, Download Cygwin (No Instillation Required for Cygwin, Unzip the downloaded file to where ever you want, and in Droid Manager "Boot Image" tab, point the program on where you have extracted the contents of the zip file.)
  • System Sounds must be in .OGG extension if you want to add your own. Droid Manager doesn't convert to .OGG
  • Rom management section is meant for noobs in custom rom building who only care about changing default apps, some build.prop values, kernel and user apps before they install a custom ROM
  • Back Up is created on SD Card, make sure USB Mass Storage Is disabled.
  • If you are experiacing lags when Browsing phone files, Copy / Delete ..etc. Please update your Superuser app & binary. If problem is still there please use adbd Insecure and patch your Adbd (you will know what to do once you open the app)

Actually I haven't implemented creating IMG files or flashing zip files. I'm trying to find a way to make it possible to create img files and flash zip files
