[ROM] Android Open Kang Project

Thanks, I'll give it a try :) There have been a few times after flashing I forget to write something down that I needed.

Lol no prob.. yeah I still forget things sometimes. Its always great to have a list.. used to keep a post-it right behind my computer on the wall with reminders on what to do before flashing (tibu, sms backups, etc) and what to set back up after flashing (ringtones/sound settings, other random settings I'd otherwise forget, things to restore, etc). Now it's all second nature :)
 
I know that flashing a new ROM doesn't kill the SD card, but if you don't backup photos, will they be deleted? I do a scheduled backup for MyBackup Pro and include photos, but I'm not sure if I really need to. lol

Nope you don't need to. If it's on the sd card its safe.

As a rooted, flashing, active user... its ALWAYS a great idea to keep things backed up somewhere else JUST IN CASE something goes crazy wrong. I keep my photo's synced to dropbox nowadays... you can also use just your gmail account (google+ or picasa sync) or plenty other options, and I have my backup data (via tibu) synced to the dropbox as well. Its just for piece of mind really. But no, in general you shouldn't have to worry.

No, they should stay there regardless if you want them to or not ;).

I'll likely try to backup my photos once a week to my computer - hopefully there's some way to do it wirelessly. I have the G+ sync on, which is nice, but I'd rather have them in my iPhoto library on my computer.

I have everything sync to Dropbox, so I can set it and forget about it.

Went ahead and added the dropbox app. I think there's a way to have it sync into my iPhoto album anyways, which is exactly what I want. Thanks for the tip.

I don't have much of a problem restoring things back to where they were and if I forget those I guess it wasn't important enough anyways. I had to restore backups a few times just to get a phone number or something else that was sent to me in a text (guess I'm just getting old LOL)
 
Can you check to see if GPS works on O3 for you? GPS wasn't working on O3 for me.
