Finally rooted...now what?

[CoryBantic]

Okay so I just rooted using unrevoked. Where do I go get those awesome roms from?

Google just that and you'll have plenty to read...

-EVO-

You can find them here:

Also might wanna try out MIUI rom which can be found here...

Froyo Version

GingerBread Version

And Please dont forget to make a nandroid backup in recovery before u do anything.... Also I assume you have clockworkmod recovery since u used unrevoked. Might I suggest switching to Amon Ra (in my opinion it's much better) To switch open up clockwork and hit switch to alternate recovery at the bottom of the main screen...

Good luck!

igotsanevo4g made a thread that outlines some of the more popular ROMs and Kernels.

This is worth a read.

Yep. Best place to go especially because the devs typically post there.

I agree with irock about Amon Ra being the way to go and yes, please don't forget a nandroid backup. The great thing about rooting is you have opened the door to trying all sorts of new ROMs and different kernels, ways to customize your phone and optimize performance. Just make sure to read a LOT. Sounds like a pain but you learn about what to expect and what issues others have run across. Good luck and Happy Flashing!

Getting Rom Manager from the market is a good start.

I totally agree. Good info there.

This is the definitive place to go for any info on roms and kernels. Read carefully and make sure you do a backup and full wipe of cache, info and dalvik cache. Do a search in the thread for any questions before you post it to keep down the repeat questions that have been answered multiple times already.

I also think it is a good idea if you switch to an Amon-Ra recovery through clockwork mod. There are directions on how to in a post above.
