Root [Boost Mobile] Question about Changing ROMs

:confused: So I am completely new to the world of rooting/flashing ROMs and all this other wonderful stuff. I did manage to get my Warp rooted & flashed the n00b rom. My question is this - If I decide to try a different ROM can I just flash it like I did the previous one or do I need to remove the n00b first? I really would like to try other ROMs but being so new to all of this (and not having a backup phone if I mess something up) I'm kind of thinking I should just leave the phone the way it is while it's working better. Ugh. Decisions decisions decisions! Any information/help/point in the right direction would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks in advance for all replies!
 
Yes you can flash anything the same way you did with noob, only your recovery will look different from before :D
Welcome to Android Forums! :D
And to flash another rom, first off you need to boot into recovery and make a backup of everything just incase, things don't usually go wrong unless you mess with your phone a lot like I do and others here as well. Keep one backup on your SD card, I can't stress it enough.
After you can flash anything you like, but always read and know what you're flashing, some people have come here asking for help because they bricked their Galaxy S2 or their Warp Sequent.
And one last thing... don't ever ask the developers of the roms when they will fix bugs or push out and update, they do everything for free besides the donations we give them so asking for eta's is rude around here. And follow the site guidelines, remember this and you'll be just fine :)
 
Depends on what you want. CTmod has customization, noob has simplicity, and Warp OEM has speed and stability. Or you can wait for Alliance ROM to come out, its gonna be the fastest rom yet :)
 
Check out the threads on the last 4 roms developed.
Alien Warp, WarpOEM, Halo, Droid Smith.:cool:

You can find them all in the All Things Root Guide Sticky at the top of this page. You'll get screenshots reviews and a complete rundown on each one. Just click the thread title.:thumbup:
 
Bottom line is this, You are rooted and have a custom recovery now, you can easily flash any rom you feel suites you the best, research them, then decide what suite you the best, Flash that baby in recovery, and enjoy!!
