Well..........

i guess im not getting force closings anymore
but hey, is the on screen keyboard on cyan different?
when i got cyan the first time, i got a different on screen keyboard
then after i did the jfs and back to cyan i have the regular cupcake on screen keyboard again.

i kinda liked the new one..haha.

Ok I'm back from flashing cyans latest

For the keyboard, go to the home screen > settings > locale and text> uncheck the android and select the htc

The recovery
Make sure its on the root of ur sd
Make sure u know what it is named as
And make sure u enter space where needed when entering the commands
If ur on a pc just copy what simms gave u onto a notepad or microsoft word w/e it is u use and then that way u can see where the space must go before typing something

i really think these are NOT the instructions to do it thru terminal....sorry but these are instructions to do it thru adb

if it was a script for terminal it would have something like /system somewhere in there

those are the same scripts that i have used previously myself . and since i did not have adb on my laptop until last week , i have to say that these are the instructions to do it through terminal
