Hey guys,
I'm new to this site, and I just got my hero. I came from a palm pre and I had "rooted" it as well...but the hero is a little different. I have a few questions:
I've rooted my phone, now do I NEED to put a ROM on it? Or can I just leave it as it is for now, until I find out what ROM I want.
Secondly, I keep reading that in order to add a ROM you need to mount your SD card...does this mean I need to plug my phone into my computer and set it at "disk drive" or do i need to do it in the cmd prompt...or do both ways work.
How exactly would I restore my phone from my nandroid back up? I've made one (at least, i followed the steps on the xda guide to make one) and now I'm not sure what exactly I would have to do in order to actually utilize it. Would I do a hard restart or whatever and would it just come up from there?
Finally, what ROM do you guys recommend? I read about the Fresh ROMS, I really would like to have sprint navigation, but i guess those don't include it? is this true.
Also, if you guys have any other advice that you might think is helpful, i would highly appreciate it! My phone is at android 2.1 btw.
Thanks!
