Same step actually compare to HBoot 0.80 and 0.75, the only difference is that you need to flash a special "ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1 SLCD" in unrevoked

precautions? As usual, do a backup, and be patient and extra careful while flashing radio.
*
Alright I guess i'll follow the instructions on the link, then use titanium backup after i root. So if i decided to use Next sense rom, I gotta download the Rom and its Radio right?

So after root and backup, how do i flash the rom and radio. I'm downloading next sense n rom and radio from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742371. Will they have instructions there?

How long you wait for it to reboot ?

And do you check your HBOOT version ?
*
well i've checked 0.83.On the unrevoked on my pc it hangs at the loading screen "waiting for 5 seconds because windows suck"

for my phone i think its at the 2nd reboot, then it hands at the htc logo with a black bar on top.

Go to your recovery, then just choose install from sdcard
Choose the zip file. That's it wink.gif

Place your ROM .zip file at root of your card

go to settings>about phone>software
check there and see what version you have

i am surprised what your phone hang so many times and pull out battery so many times but still able to start!

Nextsense 6.0. I'm surprised too, I already gave up and just press ON, then just throw my phone into my pocket and went out to work. Then i took it out , and surprised it wasn't showing htc logo, and its already on,so i test by calling my house, and it worked, so i assume that my radio is working.

QUOTE(benny888 @ Aug 24 2010, 09:11 AM)
Never take out battery when flashing especially with radio. If you encountered such, and unit freeze unable to switch off, best solution is just let the battery die over few hours. Then recharge it full and try again. I have a friend who did a recovery when battery only 20% charge - this is unwise and as expected unit freeze at the htc logo. It is wise to have at least battery 70% charged before flashing any new rom.

Depending on rom types, some might take 5 to 10 mins to fully boot. Must have patience just let it run it's course. If after more than 10 mins still no respond, you have a hung situation.

I also advised that it is a good standard practice to wipe clean cache, data, dalvik, sd ext before flash new rom. With either titanium backup or my backup restore of data is so easy. Or if you are using anon recovery, a android backup is easy and restore is always 100% good incase you need restore back to original rom before flash
*
I know i shouldn't do that, i lose patience, i think i waited 20 mins +, nothing happen. Its my first rom flash, was too anxious. How to wipe clean cache,data,dalvik? i just selected wipe/factory reset at the recovery

Now, should i do partition first or restore my stuff from titanium?

at the software there you can check the radio as well
check under baseband
last 7 digit is the radio version

in recovery you can find wipe cache then advance i think can find wipe dalvik

should actually partition 1st before flashing ROM
just download ROM manger and partition it
*
Radio seems correct. whoops, already flashed eerything, can still partition now right? Restore backup or partition first?
