Thanks, Scott, for all of your hard work on gROM, which I got working yesterday. My phone is really nice and zippy with the OC, and I really appreciate having the extra app space. Based on some stuff I read here, I flashed GingerKernel 8.1 after installing gROM.
I did have a bad moment however, which I wrote about in a separate thread:

Yes, I admit I was foolish to fire up WiFi Manager without reading more about how to use it. I recalled reading that my phone might crash after using it and I was prepared for that. I wasn't prepared for the phone to appear unbootable and unrecoverable for an hour or so.
I've now searched and read the posts in this thread on the topic, and I understand that ad-hoc mode is the one to use to avoid crashes. Would it be too much of a pain to add something to the OP about "WiFi Manager needs to be configured for first use!", maybe under the "TIP" section? I realize that pretty much everything in the rooting/custom ROM world is caveat emptor, but it might help someone like me who previously used wifi tethering (under ZVC stock) without having to configure anything at all.
