I've decided to give CM7 a shot, BUT....

[skeezix1970]

.... what if I decide it's not for me?
how easy is it to revert? I'm obviously new at this, and couldn't really find a clear answer on this.
Any help would be appreciated. I have everything I need, and am eager to do it, but since I've never flashed a ROM before, I'm a little nervous, LOL:blink:
Thanks,
rick

Use the Safestrap at http://hash-of-codes.blogspot.com/p/android-downloads.html
Follow Guidot's instructions http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-3-hacks/181636-how-use-safestrap-backup-flash-wip.html
And it is super easy.
As long as you make a good backup before you switch to "safe" mode and flash, you really cant mess up your phone too badly.

It's very easy to revert just wipe data and flash a new rom or if you like your old one just restore your backup.
Also don't forget gapps im not sure if cm7 comes with it , here is a link.

http://bit.ly/wvZX2b <--- that is the ONLY cm7, its directly from Hashcodes blog. Don't be like another user and install the one from rom manager because that's a version for the Droid Incredible.

Because you also have to flash Gapps located here: Goo-inside.me Downloads - Downloading gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip

and if you already accepted the OTA update you also need to flash this: http://bit.ly/xjEFpQ

Thx. I got the one update back in Sept maybe? The one that fixed the radio / battery issues. Would I need to download then flash that last link first?

Thx again for your help
