At the time of flashing the new ROM, I sign into Google (had random issues in the past when going back later to sign in) then get air plane mode on ASAP so that I can run the TB batch job "Restore missing apps with data" instead of re-downloading everything. If I first have to download TB then other apps get downloaded also and I have to find which ones I want to restore data to that auto-downloaded which is just more time consuming. I got my TB when the license was just a text file on the SD card so the "free" version is all I ever need. The paid version that is available in the market still requires the free version. With that, one could run a single app restore of the paid key then run the fully-automated batch job of their choosing.

I like having ROM manager from the get-go for when I am monkeying around with stuff or when I have to flash back to a backup... it is just easier than rebooting into recovery, browsing to the nandroid backup I want to restore, restoring it, then manually rebooting. I came from CM so I guess I just got used to it being there.

DC is great! Keep up the good work!

one solution may be for you to use the option within TB to create an update.zip to flash TB on once you have flashed your ROM of choice on. once TB is in place RM can be restored either as part of batch or just do it first...

I'm curious, other than clearing residuals from previous builds, what is the point of wiping the contents of /system during the install of this rom? I can appreciate the necessity of doing this between various roms, but it's difficult to restore all of the minor changes and system apps (particularly blacked out and themed ones), not to mention losing data on these apps.

@woody or davros... Is there any point where this rom will no longer wipe /system during install, so that it can be installed over previous builds?

@others or all... How does everybody deal with this process without losing ringtones & sounds, animation, hosts file, etc. and the settings that go along with them, such as custom tones associated with contacts and various options? Also the difficulty of restoring some blacked out apps (not all for me) and other themed apps (BnB for me), without losing data?

I don't change much/have custom ringtones per contact etc.

I flash a few ROMs in a weekend and only change a few things, not hosts file or anything that would cause too much annoyance.

I understand where you are coming from, and I used to have TiBu and all of that but even that became too tedious for me.

I've gone very simple, so you won't hear a complaint from me.

I would love to have init.d support in the ROM.

What would this allow you to do?

It lets you call scripts to run at startup.

power widget to be able to have more than 6 toggles and possibly adding the play,back,forward controls for music.

i keep my phone in my pocket and it always seems to slide open and i sometimes keep the lockscreen off and it has called random people at times or opened random apps. so i was thinking possibly adding a setting to the phone so that opening the sliding keyboard does not turn the screen on?

power widget is an ongoing process, as far as the screen option I don't know about that, but we are going to be adding the music controls and removing the 6 item limit

init.d support would be great.

Also, contacts preferences so you can hide the icon and add in the call button next to each contact would be great!!!
