If you get a new ROM, do you have to get a new launcher too?

You don't have to, I just felt like it was time to clean up the space and thought a slick launcher would be fun to toy with.

OK. After my scare of this past weekend, it might be a while before I try loading on a new ROM, but the more info I get the better.

I was lucky enough to find an excellent utility that had a good walkthrough and had been compiled specifically for my phone and current build. It basically did all the prep work in stages up to the point of getting the new custom ROM and Google APK ready for me. It flashed a fresh stock build to my main partition, rooted it, and then loaded the SafeStrap utility. It's like having a dual-boot PC at this point - if I end up with a problem on the custom ROM, I can boot back to stock.

War can you give me some info on it?I tried looking but only can find news about its release.

Does this replace the current messaging app or is this seperate? It seems like it's sort of an aol instant messenger across platform.

Is that right? Would I just give people my phone number or does bbm use something else

You're sending secure messages directly through RIM's servers. It's basically an encrypted texting service.

I was really hoping it was the 4.3 update when the notification came through. :/
