Hi all,
I have a rooted Dinc running Froyo, with Sense. I've been fooling with it to the point that I'm sick of the out of space, reboots, and general mishaps the phone has experienced lately - don't ask me why.
I think I'm ready to go to a new ROM probably CM7.1 but I have a few questions that perhaps more experienced users can answer:
1. I've heard of GPS issues with CM7, and I use my navigation A LOT, so this is a huge concern for me. I've read various posts and it's not clear if this is still a problem.
2. I want my FM radio. I use it regularly and its one of the things I love about Android. How can I make sure I still have it with the new ROM?
3. I use Titanium Pro, ROM Manager & App 2 SD Pro. Can you direct me to a step-by-step guide where I can clean up the phone, (I will reload apps fresh) and then install the ROM without it laying on a bunch of leftover crap - which is my fear? I back up every evening with Titanium onto the SD Card.
4. I'm fairly savvy with tech but I know the least about re installing an Android ROM. I've been trying to get an education, but since the Dinc has been acting up, I'm worried the process won't go smoothly. Ironically, everything is finally laid out perfectly - after a year and a half of fiddling with it (so many options!)
5. Have purchased a 32 GB C10 sd card, backed up fully my 16 gb, formatted the 32 gb via Windows & the Dinc to FAT32, copied everything to new card, but it does not work, so I'm back with the 16GB. Phone now freezes and sometimes doesn't recognize card. Ugh. SO I need a fresh start. Every couple of years I do this with my Win PC and it's great. But I'm not confident in my abilities here.
6. I read that there is a possibility, that I might have the older version of App 2 SD Pro, and that it might have partitioned the card, hence the problem. Since I upgrade the apps regularly, how can I verify this?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Alp
