any quick guide on flashing roms?  drool.gif

Just my opinion.
Do not flash leaked froyo full sbf as you would loose the ability to downgrade to 2.5x (Although there is a workaround to downgrade).

Flash Nandroid backup is the safest way (the dev in xda is currently working on restoring nandroid without reboot at init2 level just like installing display driver without rebooting in linux).

You can use titanium backup to restore it. Or you can also use App Backup and Reinstall in the market.

For me also gone case. At that time I don't see any SEA sbf available at and-developers so I just full flash it.
Only then I know that these bootloaders has version 2 (2.21 & 2.34) , 3 (2.5x) & 4 (leak froyo)
Even the official korean froyo that I'm using now also version 2.

Now I'm experimenting to convert CG39.smg (extracted from sbf file) to nandroid system.img without installing to the phone first.
I'm trying to port official 2.59 back to my phone just to see whether it can be done.

Music widget i use Music Mod for the 1st post, Mixzing Media for the 2nd post. I use Go Launcher cause it's more customizable and support scrollable widgets.
