Root [ROM] Android 2.2 FroYo - Brought to you by MDW (OC & Flash 10.1!)

Please excuse my noob-ness. I'm going to flash this through ClockworkMod. One of the original posts in this thread says that we should indeed do a wipe first. I've only ever done a wipe though ROM manager. While in ClockworkMod there are two wiping options: "Wipe data/factory reset" and "Wipe cache partition." Do I wipe both or just one? The phrase "factory reset" is what scares me and I don't want to do something to my phone I shouldn't do.
 
Has it been mentioned yet that the screen orientation now works in THREE DIRECTIONS???!!! (Try flipping your phone with an app open and the USB port on top. Sweet!)

Both. ROM Manager does both when you select that anyway.
 
Did anyone else get an error after it skipped Apps2SD? It still installed fine (I think).

Definitely have to go back to Helix. I don't like this launcher.

Also, I assume we shouldn't restore 2.1 app data? Or would e-mail and the like be ok?

Got the same thing and saw a post on AAD forums say the same. I ended up flashing the ROM twice just to double check. Everything seems to be working (wifi aside) though.
 
Decided to just restore apps/data that wasn't 2.1 related. I can do a fresh backup after I get everything running again.
 
Have you guys that said Hulu isn't working tried Dolphin Browser HD? I've seen some of the nexus guys say it wasnt working in the regular browser but was in Dolphin. Worth a shot. I'm gonna wait til the wifi is working before I ditch 2.1.
 
Not sure what you mean...This rom seems stable...

That said, I can't wait to see what Pete does with it! :D

**EDIT** Holy crap...The camera is FAST!!!

Wi-Fi doesn't work, I need Wi-Fi :). Thanks though, maybe when they release P3 kernels later, I'll give it a try.
 
finally get nexbeast up and running loved it, then i see that froyo is up and running and couldn`t resist . man is this nice. dl`d flash and can`t wait to see what pete does with this . no problems did the standard back up and wipe and the install went off without a hitch. all the apps loaded up save google maps. now just playing around to see what else i can do with it.
