Root decks reloaded question

One you have the rom on your sd card use an app like es file explorer. It should be included in mikg.

Open the app, navigate to the Rom on your sd card. Click and Hold it, go to properties, check md5 sum, and make sure the numbers match from your download link.

Basically this just insures you had a good download.

I usually don't check md5 unless something goes wrong

okay question decks reloaded to install the zip and verify md5 whats the md5 and what do i do with it. Also do i have to use this recovery SMELKUSMOD Mason themed recovery or can i use my i think is aroma 2.3.3 something like that

md5 is just a way to verify that you have a good download.

and no the recovery is not needed to flash the rom. it is just recommended. it is a good recovery that is based off of amon ra2.3.

Going from AOSP to sense and back you need to have an absolutely clean slate or you are going to run into a lot of issues.

Wipe dalvik cache, cache, system, boot, data, SD-EXT and SD-android secure.

Wipe them twice just to be sure

i already flash decks and it awesome but i didnt wipe sd android secure but i did wipe everything else
