Hi folks,
ok, so i have rooted my phone using clockworkmod, made several backups of everything (just in case) and have downloaded AuraxTsense 8.4 and a radio and put them on the sd card. I have ROM manager installed.
Questions...
Installation
QUOTE-- Enter to recovery, do a Wipe Factory reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik, format/wipe partition Ext2, 3 or 4.
1. I have read that I need to partition my sd card with an ext partition, it says that it would wipe the card but when I did it using the ROM manager,(512MB no swap) it took only seconds and everything was still there, Nothing looks any different. Have i done something wrong?
2. The back ups i have made. If something goes wrong or I dont favour the ROM I`ve installed, is it just a case of reinstalling the back up and everything returns to normal?
3.What is the dalvik? What is stored in the Cashe? I figured out the factory reset bit.
4. Is anyone using this ROM? Or is there a better one with similar features that anyone can recommend?
I`m sure these questions have been asked time and time again and i apologize in advance for being a noob. I just want to be certain I don`t brick the phone on my first go.
Thanks for your patience
