Aii, still very sluggish. So no choice, root my phone & set the CPU to 1000mhz,now the phone is much faster & more responsive.

yeah. no worries. i used 1000Mhz also 60vsel. phone smooth and no random reboot.
no overheat issue. use already 3 month 1GHz no issue at all.
use with CM7 battery can stand 24hour.

wow Xbox..that looong battery life.
i cant hold that long for new rom MIUI Ginger.8~9 hour.
do you try latest MIUI GB 15 April release. seem stable.
camera OK. memory access speed faster 30Mbps++ read. test using SD tools.
long time leave CM6 as i read it will be final soon. so CM6 almost stable and perfect.

seem stable for me than cm7 HO!NO!. camera stable and more smooth than cm7 HO!NO!.
last time my HP always force close, now seem stable.almost all functioning, except wifi tether. but now can tether using old skool eclair wifi tether software.works charms.
more function in MIUI setting as its launcher good. i dont use launcherpro anymore.just try ADW EX, but change back to stock MIUI.

is it true it can only 8-9 hours? i read somewhere,muiu's batt life better than any other rom. hmm,  i plan to switch to MIUI as its seem better than CM7. i hate the iPhone style but wanna have stable rom. maybe using launcher pro once flashed. currently using CM6. ok but not that smooth sometimes.
*
hehe..8-9 hour for 3g use. if standby, 12 hour 10% only. that when i sleep la.
not sleep, i play internet too much.then last 6 hour..
i like the way apps popup for MIUI like sms.
and the support like error fix, so fast by lalit.DSI are fixed.no black screen when scrolling.
and SD card read and write now more faster as they fix it.no lagg loading pic in gallery.
use ext2 will save your internal space and make phone smooth also.now support ext4 also.
Sinach, try to OC your phone to 1GHz.will smooth i think.

the important step is until u can setup Andrioani OR. then try boot into Andrioani OR until u get the MENU.
after get the menu, u can go to nandroid and make backup for current ROM.(in case your new ROM not working, u can revert back to ori ROM by restore nandroid).
after that step, any ROM can be installed.

important tips to know your ROM file type:
1. nandroid backup(need to unzip the file): need to put the file under nandroid folder in /sdcard/nandroid/openrecovery/xxxx folder/*.img and *.md5
if you unzip this file, you will find alot file with .img and .md5

2. update .zip(dont unzip.let it in .zip): need to put .zip file under /sdcard/OpenRecovery/updates/xxxx.zip
if you unzip this file, u will find 2 folder (META-INF and system) and 1 image file (boot.img). so confirm this is update.zip file

then in Andrioani OR to update new rom:
a)choose nandroid for nandroid restore.
b)choose update for update .zip

now im not testing new game.no time to test and play.
all function working great and the support also always update the ROM follow up CM7 change.

ok thks

I faced some problem of stucked at android booting logo, end up i re flash to stock rom 2.1 back. Now i reapply the vulnerable sbf and G.O.T openrecovery 2.01. I did backup of my stock rom first before doing anything. After that, i rooted it. So far no problem.

Now the questions:
1. Can i test the backup whether it is working fine?
2. The correct step to wipe and install custom rom. The guide i read out there especially the xdadevs is still hard for a noob like me lol.
3. Where is the backup of rom located? I wanted to save the backup rom to my computer
4. Can i directly flash to cronos gingerbread rom from stock 2.1 and how to flash it properly. It is the flashing process same for every custom roms?

Thanks and sorry if i asked too much lol. Hope u guys can help me. thumbup.gif  notworthy.gif

anyone can help answer? hmm.gif

i try as per my understanding

1-yes. you can try anytime nandroid restore and you will get same like before flashing any ROM
2- a)boot into recovery.
b)wipe dalvik , wipe cache,factory reset(if change different type of ROM)
c)update ROM / restore nandroid
d)reboot
3-/sdcard/nandroid/openrecovery/OR**/.md5 and .img. -> just copy this folder to PC
4-i can jump from any ROM to any ROM without problem even ginger to froyo and vice versa. i use Androidiani OpenRecovery.
