Nah, you'll be fine. The danger of bricking comes in when you flash ROMs not intended for your phone or when flashing recoveries or radios. I've only heard of one person actually bricking their Shift beyond repair and it's because he flashed a radio or a recovery from a different phone and then some other device's ROM, or something like that. Basicially he effed it up almightlily. You'll have no problem flashing any of the ROMs posted here in the Shift forums.

Now, going from Sense to AOSP or vice versa you should probably take the extra step beyond the factory data reset and also format system. Just make a nandroid first. The worst case scenario from just flashing ROMs is that you might get caught in a boot loop. If so, just boot into recovery and either restore back to your backup or do a full wipe again, clear all caches and try flashing again. If you really get stuck just hop onto IRC and someone'll try and help.

EDIT: As far as the topic goes, CM7 nightly #178 w/Tiamat's latest kernel is the best damn ROM ever made for the Shift =)

ALL HAIL OTAKING71, THE RAPER OF HBOOT!!!

Does the recovery being used matter? I have the Clockwork one right now, but am seeing people rave quite a bit about the Amon Ra recovery. They seem to have pretty much the same stuff, but I can't say for sure.
[EVO Shift 4G General] crump84:
As of right now clockwork is the only recovery available for the Shift. The Amon Ra thread was more of a petition to try and get it ported over. Something else is in the works but clockwork is it for now.

Yes something else that rocks btw

there any roms that offer Sense 2.1 Stock app i just dont dig the Sense 3.0 it just doesn't look right on a Shift it made for 3D phone. I've tried them all I keep going back to Stock only thing I don't like about stock Gingerbread is I can't seem to get the hotspot bypass working only on Custom roms that works on unless someone knows a way to get stock to make it work.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Snakes1:
First Rom was Ti-X over the x99 kernel. It was simple and quick, especially Overclocked. I flashed Mik-G recently, it wiped out the x99 then I flashed x99 back. I'm a Sense fan too. Like it better than the wife's Epic 4G.

Mik-G has been great, esp with the x99, But I just found out today that I cant hear anything or send sound when i make a phone call. Has that happen to anyone on Mik-G? I did a search and got nothing back. I was going to reflash and see if that fixes it. I'm on the latest radio too, not sure if that has anything to do with it.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Dread 7us:
Its because of the kernel you flashed. HTC hasn't released the source code yet so flashing an older sense OC kernel is going to cause problems. Gotta reflash the ROM and no custom kernel.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Snakes1:
Crap. I thought that was the case, I was hoping it would work though. Wifi sucks a bit too in this configuration. Thats probably a bigger deal breaker for me than the phone function.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Econ212:
Glad to be able to post now! I've been running the latest Miui, and it runs great with Pershoot V8 kernel. The customization level of Miui is awesome, and the lack of the app drawer is interesting. Kind of iphone-esque in a way. This phone is so smooth running at 1.8 on conservative. Battery life has been great, as long as I'm not in a really low signal environment (my work), it will last me all day approximately 17-18 hours of heavy usage, i've been abusing it, this rom is just way too much fun.
[EVO Shift 4G General] BiffTirkle:
i have been using cm7 from the 2nd or 3rd week of owning my shift which i purchased in feb. i came straight from the palm pre. i love cm7, though recently ive been having a lot of radio issues. for the past week, ive been flashing cm nightlies, trying to circumvent the bootloop issue, and even trying various sense roms, right now im using synergy ill give it a day to see how i like it. i just dont like the weight of sense roms. i love love love cm7, but not being able to work out my radio issues is driving me crazy. i just havent scoured the forums looking for solutions as well as i should have. but cm7 is the best for vanilla roms. synergy is so far pretty nice.

synergy was good, a bit heavier than I liked' I jacked it up installing a new kernel and am back to cm7, fixed bootloop. Everything's perfect.

I have an Evo w/the latest OTAs.. but I heard that the HTC method of unlocking isn't as good as the revolution way.

[HTC EVO 3D] mwalt2:
You can use HTC's method and still flash ROMs, kernels, or just root your phone. The steps are a little different with HTC's method than if your phone was just S-off, but I think you can accomplish everything besides flashing a different HBOOT. I do think a 4.5" screen might be nice to see though :).

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bghozali:
Hey guys, I tried searching for this particular issue but came up empty.

I have an Atrix 4.5.91 and had this issue creep up suddenly. I first noticed it when I tried to play a video file using Meridian. It would start up Meridian, but then keep it on a blank screen. After about 10 seconds the force close notification comes on.

Then I tried to play music using Winamp... It starts up the application, but would stay stuck on the first page with the Winamp logo. FC notification comes up soon after.

Then I tried it with the stock music player. It starts up and all I get is the blue background associated with the new mp. FC notification comes up around the same time as well.

I also noticed that the Camera application would force close after taking a picture. Perhaps due to the opening of the gallery app?

Any idea what's going on with it? I'm offshore right now for work and I use my phone as my music player... it's my only way to not get bored to death for 3 weeks.

P.s. My battery life has also been drastically reduced since this started happening.

You can flash the generic UK 2.3.2 firmware without an unlocked bootloader, then do an OTA update to keep root. There are several threads on here about it.

Look for the thread about flashtool, the UK generic and gingerbreak.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w04g005:
Hey guys,

my idea was to put a neodym magnet in my Transformer case so my transformer goes into standby when closing the case. I also own a keyboard dock and if i close it the transformer goes into sleep mode. I tested it with some neodym magnets i own and it didn't work! It only works if my Transformer is docked to the keyboard (but still open)! So i assume it has to be a software related thing. Do you think it's possible to simulate a "dock mode" always. Maybe with tasker?! It would be a ice addon for all the cases out there and it is very cheap (i think i have paid 1€ for 10 neodym magnets). What do you think about it?

[Desire Accessories] jedreg:
I wonder if anyone of you has experienced this kind of failure. 3 weeks ago I had an accident: my smartphone laying on car roo was crushed by trunk door after opening. Display had cracked, to my surprise digitizer survived. GSM service has replaced amoled screen and everything looked fine until yesterday, when it blinked couple time as if connection tape was not fit tightly.

It was this effect I recorded: youtube.com/watch?v=-lYj0nXc7NI

Today it happened again but after couple minutes of blinking it just got persistent blue shade. GMS service checked the tape and it was ok; they said either display is defective or motherboard is failing (I have to wait until they receive components delivery).

After an hour or so, I switched phone again and after a minute of blinking, it settled down and true colours returned. I suspected it was due to heat; i did a test running cpu benchmark and a game at the same time... in couple minutes it started blinking again and turned blue for another several minutes. I repeated this test once more with the same results. Does this mean main board is main suspect? I guess it was cracked slightly and when it is warmed up it there are electric disconnection of some kind... I just want to make sure GSM service will not extend unnecessary costs if I decide to repair it.

cheers,

If I buy a 3d version of avatar, can I make a version for my phone with a standard blueray player?

I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue!
[HTC EVO 3D] Dudemeister:
Yes you can, as long as you have the right tools.

You'll need something like AnyDVD HD to extract and decrypt the Blu-Ray disc, then you'll have to encode the main movie into a format that the 3vo can play, specifically, MP4. There are many tools to do this, Ripbot 264, Handbrake and Xvid4PSP come to mind.

You'll endup with a side by side video that you can play using the Media Gallery.

If you haven't done this before, or you're not up to it, you can always head over to DroidAppz, and check out their 3D movie section. You'll find what you're looking for there.

[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
Wow.... I guess I should sell my copy seeing as how I don't have the 3d glasses for my tv anyway.

So if i own the movie in 3d.. is it still illegal to download a 3d version for my phone? I don't have a blu-ray disk drive so I can't make my own.
[HTC EVO 3D] Dudemeister:
Wow, this is slippery slope... I can see a real can of worms being opened here.

Anyway, the short answer is no. The DMCA protects the contents of that disc through multiple provisions. And even if someone were to invoke the "Fair Use" rights act, the simple process of bypassing the content protection scheme is illegal. This is one of the reasons that many new movie releases now include a "digital copy" which you can install on your computer or mobile device.

If you downloaded the camera.apk with SGS tools its probably a compatibility issue and is meant for Froyo. You may have to copy the new camera.apk to the app folder using root explorer or similar, or flash it with clockwork mod recovery.

If all else, reflash the ROM (no bootloaders)

I am looking to revive the old Gingerbread Samsung camera, for use on my Cappy running JB 4.2.2

I have tried 12 different cameras, none have the easy to use panarama mode (full screen), or have good image stabilization options, or the outdoor brightness mode or face detection. Why do the new cameras have fewer features?

i hope someone has an idea how to run the stock camera from and older ROM.
