Please direct all non-development related discussion to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=36285904. Got bugs, want to get rid of the drip, need an add-on, have a question? Go to that thread.

I'll try to consolidate all the FAQ-type knowledge for the basic user/newb/whatever. My goal is to not take away from mohan's instructions above. My goal is to help prevent as much idiocy as possible in the development section. We're all temporary idiots at some point, but I hope I can limit the repeated questions and "search the f'ing threat, newb" replies.

I'll need your help. I'm open to suggestions and feedback for this small project. Most importantly, if my post ever contradicts instructions in the OPs posts, please notify immediately so I can fix this.

Confirmed Radios working with this ROM

There has been some discussion within this thread as of 31 December that not all Skyrocket radios will work with this rom (EMBRYO 6.0). Below are radios confirmed to function with the ROM with links to the individual posts that confirm them.

Battery life with this ROM

​

Overall, there has been good feedback regarding battery life. Please see pages 24-26 of this thread for battery feedback. As usual, a small portion of users are reporting poor battery life. These cases seem to be isolated issues associated with improper flashing methods and/or excessive wakelocks.

Issues connecting USB storage to PC

​

This has affected at least a handful of users, including myself. The two posts below may help.
