Flashing a new rom will wipe everything from your phone, its like formatting ur pc/notebook and install new windows.

Did you refer to this for s-off and flash?

huh? who told u so -.-

NO, it does NOT wipe your data if you choose to keep the data... like u said it is like pc/notebook, other than the "reformat" option, there is also the "upgrade windows" option which does not wipe anything

word of warning thou: Please follow the instructions EXACTLY and be PATIENT"

some steps might take longer time, around 10-15 minutes u will see the HTC logo stuck there. Dun touch it and wait patiently and everything will sort itself out.

Okay let me do a check list of things to do, First I need to S-Off, can i refer to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 for that?

After that i need to s-off radio?, or is that optional?

then finally flash the rom.

i din know u can keep ur apps in flashing a new rom. u can do that ? without the backup of titanium? wont it reset everything ? cause everytime i flash a new rom all my apps are gone.

That depends if the custom rom can retain the data or not. If the custom rom is using the same baseband, then u essentially just upgrade the OS, nothing more. If the baseband is different, you need to clear and wipe all partitions.

For custom rom, u dun need to do the rooting, just flash the custom rom, the custom rom will include the root function.

How do we see the baseband ? and care to make a example with the custom rom we have now for sensation ?

Ohhhh...so I just need to S-Off and I can flash already....is there any way to back up original things (roms etc) for warranty purposes?

Edit: Its downloading CWM now, how long does this take?, I hate it when they don't show a percentage, makes you so nervous.

argh so many things i dunno and dun dare to do it man..haha..

What is the different after you flash the new rom? Mind to share what is get improved?

it's in the revolution rom 1st post
here u go:

Actually I also dunno... but the custom rom maker will mention if you need to wipe or not, so need to read through when u choose a custom rom. The one i am using now, Android Revolution HD, does not require wipe as mentioned by the author.


if you want to backup stuff, you can use CWM to do it. It is mentioned in the thread in XDA where they teach you how to S-OFF.
Warranty I really dunno... that one need to consult with SIS.


change log on the custom rom's author page. each custom rom got their own improvements, so u need to read through to know which custom rom suits you best.
for me, I choose this rom because it is exactly the same as stock rom as the author just make improvements to the original rom supplied by HTC. bloatwares are removed, better battery efficiency and ram efficiency are among the few things which made me choose the rom. There are also custom roms which doesn't use sense 3.0 for those who want to get rid of sense once and for all.

Hahahaha I'm on Revolution HD too now!, I chose to wipe because i wanted it to be clean again, nothing much to lose anyway, everything can be downloaded again and my contacts are backed up.

Btw, how do I set the cpu speed etc those kinda things?

so whats the differences? what did u do? how bout the premium navigation thing? is it still working after u insert the code into it and then wipe it all clean? u wipe all clean means ur SD card or ur phone internal memory?
