So...installing ROMs.

[Stang68]

I am looking to start installing ROMs on my rooted X and have a few questions. What do I need on my actual device to be able to install a ROM? Can I jus install ROM Manager from the Market and start installing? Or is there something I have to do before?

U got root. Dl rom manager and start having fun. Remember to always make a backup. If you find a rom you want to try not in manager the site will give you instructions for that rom.

Yeah, that's what I've been reading. I need to download this Bootstrapper and then I can download ROM Manager from the Market and just start installing.

As for backups, do I need to make a Nand Backup? Or is backing up using MyBackupPro while rooted good enough? Where do I get a Nandroid Backup System?

Thank you!!

I use rommanager to back up.

You can also boot into clockwork mod recovery and backup threw there. But rom manager makes it so easy

rom manager doesn't have all the roms that are out. I do believe they have most of the "big ones" right now. ApeX, rubiX, ect.

Just make sure you make a backup of your 2.2 rooted first so you can go back if needed.
