And if it helps, i have 2.11.605.9 and i don't want any data erased. I also don't want my planned to get screwed up from rooting it.

Well in order to flash a ROM you will have to factory reset, but it won't affect your sd card. You will also have to downgrade because Revolutionary does not support the lastest OTA update, which will also factory reset. Refer to this thread on how to downgrade and then root:

The last few pages explain what to do.

I would google your problem with that Rom and see is anyone else has had some situation and hopefully there will be a simple fix. I personally have not used that Rom. Actually I ran the stock Tbolt Rom just rooted for some time. And recently my phone was acting up so I decided to install a New Rom and I used G3D (Gingeritis 3D) and it works awesome so far. Everything is working properly.

I had an issue with the call bug which has only happened one time an since Reboot no issue's in over a week. I also downloaded the total call control incase it happens again Ill be able to fix it. but the most important thing I did was read through countless post's to see issu'es others were having so new what to be prepared for. Also with this one the myverizon still works as does NFL.
