This is my first attempt at flashing a ROM on a phone and been having a little confusion. I downloaded a custom ROM bt cant seem to find clearconsistent instructions. is flashing a ROM and flashing a recovery the same thing?
I tried loading the ZIP by Sideloading the file. The phone was in the Sideload status but eventually failed.
Flash Recovery button is looking for an image file so do i export the image file from the ROM zip file?
ANy helpclarity would be helpful.
Got it figured out. Pushed the zip file onto the phone and then used the recovery tool to load the ROM
