That must be why my wireless tethering doesnt work. I restored my apps plus data. Should I wipe and reflash to get it working again?

You *can* do that, but I don't think that's necessary. I would uninstall that app and reinstall it and see if that works, if not, it wouldn't hurt to start fresh and do a full wipe and reflash the ROM. Then when you restore w/ TB, don't restore apps + data, just apps.

OK. So I flashed Warm Two Point Two. Awesome! The only 2 things I have left that I want to do.

First I want to use SetCPU to over and underclock but I cant with the kernel that came with warm 2.2. Is it ok to flash the custom kernel I had before? Will they conflict?

Second I want to flash some customizations. Do I have this correct?

Wipe Cache>wipe dalvik>flash I dont have to wipe date?

What kernel were you running before? As long is it's a sense based kernel, it'll work with any sense based ROM. An AOSP kernel won't work w/ a Sense based ROM and visa versa.

Secondly, yes, you are correct. When flashing mods or kernels there's no need to wipe data, just cache/dalvik-cache.

When you're done customizing your Evo, shoot us a screen shot :D!

aosp (android open source project) are roms that do not have sense built in it. you can totally flash them if you want. it does take a learning curve. there are some roms that are not as stable as others. just keep in mind that most of them do not have 4g or hdmi working. however, lately there are some that have 4g working ie Destoryer roms. also so far they are the only ones that have gingerbread working. go ahead and check them out.

[ROM] VaelPak v3.2 Remastered [3/6/11] - NonSense
[3.70.651.1 OTA][Nets 4.3.1][AOSP][Lock Customization][Notification Toggles][Lots of bonuses]
Just more accurate information for your list. :) VaelPak is a Sense based ROM, not AOSP. Here's the link to the current revision:

VaelPak 3.2 RC 1 - Vaelek's Place

Great list by the way! :D


Thanks for the update! I saw non sense in the title and thought AOSP lol. Ill make the update later tonight.

Another useful tool I've found is Calkulin's ClearTemp.zip, it does as the name implies clearing temporary files from the /mtd partitions. You flash it in recovery just like the FormatAll.zip. I'll attach it to this post, & here's the direct link:
Calkulin\'s_ClearTemp.zip

I was helping someone over the weekend set up DarkTremors a2sd. When he got it all up & running he was missing about 100MB of internal storage on the /data partition. I had him run ClearTemp.zip & voilia! He got his 100MB of free internal storage back! :D
