Here was a post by Frisco from earlier today:

Most ROM flashing requires a wipe as a part of the process.

I was gratified to find that not all have that requirement, such as Senseable 3.1, because I'd spent a bit of time getting things the way I like them in Evil Eris 3.

After flashing Senseable 3.1, all of my settings were intact.
