2. Factory reset phone using manual code. (*2767*3855#)
3. Get into recovery mode and wipe all.
4. Now flash the new ROM as usual (latona and then the remaining 4 files.) Be sure not to make any lame errors here.
5. Factory reset again using manual code.
6. Now check to see if the power button functions and the phone reboots when you ask so. (It should work.)
7. Check camera. If you have a black screen, its okay.
8. Factory reset again using manual code.
9. Redo flash procedure again.
10. Factory reset again.
11. Check power button issue and camera. Both should be totally fine.
12. Press power button to lock and leave device for 10 mins. Now, press power button to check if the device wakes up as normal. It should. If you want to avoid the device being woken up by calls or texts or other notifications, just put it into flight mode and turn off Wi-Fi.
13. Root using SuperOneClick. It will show up Kernel Panic error in the end, but its no problem.
14. Just pull battery after that and restart phone. You should see SuperUser installed and working. Upgrade Busybox to 1.18.4 by Stericson.
15. Now install TB and go about your restoring business. DO NOT restore any system apps. Just restore User Apps and data.
