Root Checking the MD5 before flashing.

Came across this App and just figured I would share. Basically will allow you to check an MD5 Sum from your device before flashing to insure nothing has changed or been corrupted between the time the file is created, uploaded, downloaded and then transferred to the SD card. Getting in the habit of doing so could potentially save a whole lot of grief down the line.

Simply open the app, select "Hash a file", select the file to hash and then compare the number with the MD5 listed on the Roms thread usually below the download link. If even one bit has changed the numbers will not match up.

Can also be done easily from a computer but know more would be inclined to check from their Triumph.
