Installing Liberty 1.5 - Few questions first...

[EvanTheGamer]

haha glad you figured it out without messing anything up!

lol...oh no, never. I wasn't planning on proceeding until I found the answer..that way I don't screw anything up!

Backing up everything now...and ran into an issue, sort of.

It backed up all system data, and all app data, also .android_secure and cache it appears.

But this popped up: No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext. Is this bad or does it matter?

Now it's Generating md5 sum...Backup complete!

the sd-ext is fine. that just means you dont have a partition on your sd card. nothing to worry about there

Ahh, great!

OH, one other thing, should I "wipe cache partition" first, before I choose the "wipe data/factory reset" option?

Thanks brenneisec!

I see the "wipe dalvik cache" option under "Advanced", but shouldn't I just choose the "wipe cache partition" option in the Main Menu? Or do both?

Just making sure I do everything right the first time so there's no issues later..

ive always used the wipe data and wipe cache options from the main menu. i could be wrong tho..

Why not do both?

Yeah, I'm gonna do that, wouldn't hurt and especially since I'm going to wipe the data in a few minutes, it'll probably be best to clear as much cache as I can.

Sweet...thanks!

from what ive read dalvik cache is your system app cache. so basically with liberty you wouldnt need to since you have new system apps but from now on i am and i would suggest that you clear both caches just in case. it wont hurt anything

Yep, absolutely!

One final question before I take the plunge into rom madness, how long does it usually take to install Liberty? I'm not sure how much battery I have left, but I think I have more than 50%. Or I could reboot, see how much I have left, then start again.

These are exciting times! Yeah!

Yeah, it doesn't take that long to install. It can take a few minutes for the initial boot up though. I have been stuck at the Liberty eagle before for what seemed like 10 minutes. Just give it time.
