Quick question: do you have to wipe from recovery every time you flash a new rom, or do you just recommend it for this rom only? Like I said I'm a n00b to the rom scene for android.

There are two types of ROM flashers...

Type A - Does a full wipe with every install.

Type B - Only Wipes Dalvik and cache between upgrades.


If you jump to another ROM, lets say bored's ROM, then do a full wipe. If you are going from a prior version, like 1.0 to 1.1 you can prolly just get away with just a Dalvik / Cache wipe.

I personally do a full and complete wipe when flashing even between minor version. Sometimes just wiping dalvik and cache isnt enough.

When I test the ROMS I wipe everything so there is no residual garbage left over. Its the only way to be certain that its not related to the ROM if something starts to bug out.

A de-sensed ROM would be a great addition as well.

I mentioned this before, but you may have missed it.... Tetherguard is still in the ROM, that may cause issues with tethering.

I am also going to try to add the Rhyme version of Rosie. I would like to try to add the HTC Hub, but I do not know which .apk it is.

This time a million. Especially when ROMs are experimenting with newer versions of features and where they are stored (i.e. adding features from a newer version of Sense), full wipes are critical. People went nuts with this on the OG Incredible and the sense 3.5 roms, especially in their infancy. Developers would move stuff around, people would only wipe cache/dalvik and not understand why everything pooped itself lol

Just got through unlocking, rooting, and flashing this rom. Very grateful for your speedy work going to play with it now if I notice any issues I will drop by and let you know. Someone already mentioned a de-sense version, which I agree would be nice just keep the sense lock screen I do like that.

Tetherguard is needed for Verizon Hotspot and if removed VZW Hotspot will not work. It does not interefer with WiFi Tether. I tested it and it worked as it should.

I agree, a no-sense version would earn my love forever. lol

I plan on doing one. Not sure if you are familiar with my Evo 3D work... But I have an AOSP clone ROM called SenselessROM. I plan on doing the same thing with this but not tonight. I am getting tired... Will start making too many mistakes.

If you are curious as to what it will look like look at my post here: http://www.scottsroms.com/content.php?79-SenselessROM-2-9-5-for-the-Evo-3D-is-now-out!

or here:

EDIT: Damn, its already most 3:00 AM! I am so making mods right now, lol... Im on an unlock high! I have been waiting for this day for so long (three weeks, lol)
