I'm pretty sure I just need to bite the bullet but I keep picturing my phone as a paperweight. I unlocked and rooted the phone using WugFresh's Toolkit. I now have Clockwork Mod Recovery/ROM Manager Premium (Play Store). As well Carbon Backup Premium. All the direction I find either make it seem to simple or to complicated. My thought is I should just put the .zip files for AOKP and Google Apps in the 'ReadyToFlash!' folder using Windows Explorer on my laptop. And then use ROM Manager to flash both the files.
My concerns are:
1) That 'ReadyToFlash!' folder will disappear when I wipe everything during the flashing process
2) Because the Galaxy Nexus does not have a an SD card, I might put the .zip files someplace where they get wiped out
3) I actually need to use ADB to see the root of my device and put the .zip files there and this sort of thing is (currently) beyond me
4) Clockword Mod Recovery/ROM Manager gets wiped because I got it from the Play Store and didn't flash it myself
(I realize these are pretty much different facets of one concern)
I apologize if this is a noob question or if I'm just being a coward.
Thanks in advance
