I've burnt my fingers a few times, trying to flash roms. So, can someone point me to a detailed article describing how to flash custom roms like CM9, AOKP etc?
I want to try out custom roms, but don't want to lose all my different app settings, data etc.
I went through this article from DL.
A few questions -
I don't wanna flash a new rom and start everything from scratch. Please advice. Thanks a lot in advance.

A few questions -
- How do I make sure that after I flash the rom, all my existing/current apps are still there, settings and data intact; just as they were before flashing the custom rom?
- When I create a nandroid, it is saved on the internal sdcard itself. Next when I do data wipe, that sdcard gets wiped. So, before doing that, I have to manually copy that nandroid over to my pc, right?
- Same goes for Titanium Backup too. Also, I should backup all system and user app and data and after flashing the rom, restore the same? Won't that create conflicts or crash apps on the new rom?
- Nandroid is entire rom backup, right? It is not for restoring apps and settings. If I restore a nandroid, my phone goes back to the rom it was when the nandroid was created, including os version, radio etc, right?
