I can't believe anyone would presume to think the problem lies with others' grasp of the process without first having all the facts, but this isn't a perfect world we live in.

I also can't believe others eschew proper use of the language, yet my incredulity is constantly confronted by reality.

whats the problem, you are having maybe i can help ?

Thanks for the offer; I'm good. I ended up having to use DroidMod to get a working SPR and then I flashed Simply Stunning just fine.

The problem I encountered seemed to lie with RM flashing either CM or SPR for me: It would only boot into them once before booting into stock recovery on subsequent attempts. Switching back and forth between CM & SPR from within RM seemed to unreliably make it work again for one boot.

well i wanted cyanogen (the latest one) but kept getting an error. see previous post. so i deleted that and went with buglessbeast V.9 and it installed perfectly. maybe a bad file with the cyanogen. I hate the fact i have to reinstall all my apps. i did the Astro thing. but it still is time consuming to hit every app again. Anything better out there that will make switching roms easier?

Titanium Backup donate version will do them as a batch.

Hey sorry it took so long lots of people had the same problem. The issue was with 1.7.8.4 we notified Koush and he rolled back till the problems are fixed. You should go back reflash 1.7.8.3 and try to download cyan again. It would be worth it.

This app truely makes trying different ROMS simple and painless. I drive a truck for a living and was able to install and try different ROMs while driving down the interstate. Just started it,laid the phone on the passenger seat and in about 5 mins it was loaded and ready to go.

Sorry to go off subject but good god man. Did you get your CDL in the Illinois Gov. Ryan scandel? they say texting and driving is bad. Your driving mega tons down a road and flashing your droid DRIVE SAFE!!!!!

aww man. Maybe ill have to buy that titanium backup. so many roms to choose from but i've read cyanogen is the better out of them.
