Hey guys,
I'm using the fatal1ty's hero rom right now and I want to switch to the myhero rom but I have a couple questions. First, how does bfs help me? I've read the thing about it but not having much knowledge of computers(well I'd say I know a fair bit but compared to most people in the android world), I wasn't really sure what it's all about. Will it basically just make my phone faster? Second, if I do want bfs, there is a patch to change the kernel. How would I go about applying this patch? Same way that I flashed the rom? Third, though I doubt many people would know about this, how does the apps2sd patch work? I'm assuming I apply it the same way as the kernel patch but do I need to partition my sd card? It says, "no ext2/ext3 partition required, it using your sdcard's vfat partition." My sd card doesn't have a vfat partition as far as I'm aware. I don't have it partitioned at all and I just have it formatted fat32. The way it's worded though makes it sound like your sd card should already have a vfat partition.

Thanks for your help,
Samuel Maskell
