Do you have a simple set of instructions for flashing a ROM?
1.) Download ROM to SD card. Much faster using USB cable and download to PC, then move to SD card. In a pinch, you can use Rom Manager to download it to the SD card. I do not recommend using ROM Manager to flash however but it's up to you.
2.) Open Clockworkworkmod (CWM). There are multiple ways of entering CWM:
a.) "Reboot into recovery" option in Rom Manager
b.) Turn of phone, then hold volume down while pressing power button to enter hboot. While in hboot, use volume buttons to highlight recovery option, then press power button to select. This will open CWM.
c.) Once you flash your first Rom, it may likely contain an expanded reboot menu that includes an option to boot straight into recovery. This is the method I most often use.
3.) Once in CWM, decide wether you are going to do a full wipe or not. If you are updating the same Rom most likely it's acceptable to wipe cache and Dalvik cache (under advanced menu in CWM), then proceed to load Rom. If you are changing Roms entirely or moving to a vastly different version, perform a full wipe of data, cache and Dalvik cache. So the actual flashing steps are as follows in CWM menu:
a.) wipe data/factory reset (if needed, see above)
b.) wipe cache partition
c.) advanced menu > wipe Dalvik cache
d.) install zip from SD card
e.) choose zip from SD card
f.) locate your Rom and flash
e.) reboot system now
Important tips when navigating hboot vs CWM menus:
In hboot, the power button is used to select menu items. In CWM, the trackpad button is used to select menu items and the power button is used to go backward one menu.
