Guest dwattsy21 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Posted August 27, 2009 Hi, i am really keen to install the latest ROM as i get a tad annoyed with the slight lagging on the hero. But i dont even know what the image or radio is let alone how to install hem before the new rom. Is there a step by step process anywhere for a complete noob? Or am i better off just leaving it alone? Also... when yo open an application like maps or email, is the only way to exit it by pressing the home screen? By doing this, the app stays running and slows down the phone, is there any way to quickly exit an app when you are finished with it? I have taskiller but still seems a bit long winded, surely when you are finished with an app, it shouldnt use up the memory! Any help is greatly appreciated, Dave

Any help is greatly appreciated, Dave Pauls instructions here on the original post are pretty much as clear as you're going to get really. Have you install the patched recovery on your phone yet? That's your first step really.

The instructions for installing the patched recovery is in the link that was specified in his instructions for how to install the ROM. It allows you to boot up in a recovery console to install ROM updates, create nandroid backups and recover using nandroid backups.
