First a big thinks goes out to blarf, mrg666, BobZhome, JerryScript and LeslieAnn.
OM-Mandylion started out as IHO-Alien out of boredom and geekness and cannibalizing other roms February of last year and since then has evolved into the ROM it is today.
OM=The symbol of absolution.
Mandylion=Peace and healing.
Unless otherwise noted the newest kernel is included into the ROM build.
If you are updating to the current OM-Mandylion Build please download and flash the ZenGarden Recovery 2.0.2.7-T first, to keep from having problems with some system apps being killed or a Functional Play Store
Kernel 20130128 is not included in 20130112 build of OM-Mandylion

Recommendations
- Backup sd-card first to you computer.
- Partition the sd-card using the recovery and setting swap to 0.
- The Partitions size be no greater then 10% of the total size of your card, this is to protect the sdcard from failing and either ext3/ext4. Any other file system format or no ext partition well cause boot failure.
- Class 4 or high sd-card be used, the stock sd-card may work, but have system problems.
- Go here to download the the recommended VM670 ZenGarden Recovery, pick the version to your liking.
- Use Mybackup Root to backup your apps and data, if you use TB (the free or paid version) you well have problems restoring apps. TB does not full understand how the sd-ext is mounted, this is a problem with TB not the ROM.
If you are updating to the current OM-Mandylion Build please download and flash the ZenGarden Recovery 2.0.2.7-T first, to keep from having problems with some system apps being killed or a Functional Play Store
Installation Instructions for Updating from an Earlier Version
- Recomend downloading and install ZenGarden Recovery 2.0.2.7-T if not already insstalled and pick the version needed. before install ROM, which cam be done with IHO Updater menu button option Install a Recovery.
- Download OM-Mandylion using IHO Updater.
- After download is complete IHO Updater well check the md5sun is verify the zip, once verified choose "Reboot Recovery," select "Automatic Install."
- Set phone down and wait for about 5 minutes.
- Phone well auto reboot, and boot into Home screen. You may loss the Application Grid shortcut just long push on the screen and select Shortcut; well only need to restore your app data using MybackupRoot, your call log and massaging log well not be lost.
Installation Instructions if coming from another rom
- Format sdcard from recovery and create an sd-ext partition, I recommand that the partition be no more then 10% of the total size of the sdcard.
- Download MyBackup Root from the Market and backup everything you need to. MyBackup Root comes pre-installed so it is easy to restore app and data backups.
- Make Nadroid Backup.
- Download ROM and place on the root of the sdcard.
- Boot into Recovery and format everything (system, boot, data, and sd-ext if sdcard is already partitioned).
- Install ROM.
- Reboot and wait for phone to boot up.
- Go here to download the the recommended ZenGarden Recovery, pick the version to your liking and use IHO Updater to install the recovery. (this is optional, but recommended if you are going to use IHO Updater to update the ROM).

If you are on a different ROM make a backup of you build.prop then restore after installing new kernel and reboot system, otherwise the wrong ROM info well show up in settings.
