The Mac guide "worked" but isn't accurate. For instance, where it says to hold the HOME button and Power on the device to enter the recovery so you can do the nandroid backup, is incorrect. All that did was boot the phone and wipe out all my apps and data. The Volume Down needed to be held while powering on the phone, not the HOME button. I also found the organization at the bottom to be confusing. in the middle of flashing a rom it talks about partitioning the memory card and then goes back to talking about a rom. And that's just getting the rom on the phone. Once i got it on i find that the Fresh 1.1 rom is not as I expected. It's slow, takes a long time to boot (4x longer than stock Sense), Some of the apps don't work (es file browser, wireless tether, Messages) I have on icon on the taskbar that looks like a phone with circles around it, I can't get rid of it nor can I find anything that tells me what it is. I just want to go back to stock but I can't becuase I don't have windows. So until I shell out another $600 minimum for a windows computer I'm stuck in this ... whatever with a phone that is only a quarter as useful as it was just a day ago.
