Hi,
This is my second time flashing a rom. I own a rogers captivate and I rooted and flashed to Darky's v7.0 (2.2 Froyo) NO WIPE.
I want to change the rom to Doc's ROM JPY V6.2 CE.
All i know is that I have to copy the .zip folder in sd card folder and flash it using rom manager. Do I have to do the same to flash with this one?
I have read all over the forum and I read that I am supposed to flash back to stock 2.1 and then flash again to a different rom(any other rom). Someone also told me that if I have a NO WIPE version of rom installed then I don't need to flash back to 2.1. Is this true? Can someone please confirm this?
1. Should i just download the rom and just flash through rom manager(if yes, then skip q#2) or change to stock 2.1 first?
2. If i have to change back to stock 2.1, i think I have to use something called ODIN. Can someone explain me the process please? and I dont know where to get stock rogers 2.1 rom. I looked all over the forum.
3. I do not want to overclock my phone cpu. The main post on DOC's rom says that I have to flash a kernel through CWM after first boot. I dont know what CWM means or how to use it. Any instructions?
4. Should I install the Wipe version or the NON-wipe version? and what is the difference? I like changing roms once in a while and I might change it again but I dont know which one I should use.
5. Is this a 2.1 eclair rom or 2.2 froyo? How do i figure it out without installing?
I would really appreciate if anyone can help me with these questions.
Thanks a lot.
I have always just booted into recovery mode with CWM and flash the zip that way as it works for any rom i have tried so far. I have rom manager but never used it to load a rom since CWM works flawlessly everytime for me.
The simple answer is if your changing ROMs (i.e. Cognition to Perception) - should flash back to stock then load the new ROM.
If your just updating an existing ROM and it has the "no-wipe" version? Then you should be able to run the *.zip provided following the instructions given (most likely through ROM Manager/CWM)
I'm not a noob to phone flashing as I had a G1 from day 1 and have had numerous other HTC android devices since etc, just very new to tablet and with what im reading here, it's more complicated to flash roms on a tablet (or any samsung device for that matter) then on a phone. With a phone you just root, flash s-off or a new recovery, slap a rom on the SD card and flash it from clockworkmod or amon ra and blam, you are done. (hate the whole rom manager thing). Basically what im asking is what are the steps to get the tab ready to flash a rom. is it similar to a phone Root, recovery, rom? or is it different for each rom.
So far I've rooted using the noob root guide. I'm still on the original T-mobile stock firmware. I'm looking to get clockworkmod recovery flashed so i can start playing with all the wonderful rom's here. From what I have gathered...

Is this the only way to accomplish this as of right now?
I've checked to make sure im unlocked. im on stock 2.2. If I flash this using the odin instructions will it achieve what i'm looking for?
The rom I want to flash is the new 2.3.4 rom and the upcoming honeycomb rom. I might even try out overcome as well.
Thanks for any help in clarifying the process!
Hi guys recently rooted and installed CWM.
But I have no idea where to start on roms. I have kk9 stock rom, does this mean I have to kk9 based roms or can I just install any I want?
Also is there any recommended cwm guides to make sure I don't brick my note?
you can flash all CWM flashable roms you are not limited to kk9 only roms.
actually using it is very easy but dont a guide for it.
Quick question
Hoping to flash my second ROM. A while ago now I read something which said for the particular ROM I was looking at you have to flash it from the stock ROM.
So does this apply to all ROMs as i want to flash a different ROM than my custom one i have now, do i need to use my nandriod backup and restore to my stock ROM before proceeding to flash a different one or can i just go ahead from my custom one? Is there anypoint in this or is it just safer to do so or what???
Thanks xx

You can flash directly another rom, isn't neccessary to go back to stock, so backup your currently configuration/settings/rom (optional) and do the 3 wipes before flashing your new rom, flash it and enjoy (well, or follow Dev instruction to install the rom correctly )
