    Is the screen supposed to be this dim? Whites are almost gray!

    Root Upgrading to GB: Is flashing 2.3.320 + maderstock an alternative to the full 2.3.340 SBF?

    I can't seem to flash the 2.3.340 file to my phone...it fails at the last second. I'm not sure if it's because I'm flashing via Windows 7 using Parallels, as some people have said that the .340 is particular but... I've been flashing the .320 in the past and using maderstock...and Steven...

    Some people were saying that launcher pro runs smoother with the newest leak compared to 2.3.3. Can anyone comment on that? The only thing holding me back from gb is that the launchers are laggy when there are too many Widgets or homescreeens

    Root Severe LauncherPro Lag with Gingerbread

    So I'm taking Gingerbread for a test run, and one of the first issues I noticed was that LPP lags a ton with screen previews. With Liberty/Rubix/Fission, I had 5 homescreens filled with widgets, on "high memory usage" for the most responsive scrolling, and screen previews were pretty smooth and...

    Root 2.3.15 to OTA 2.3.340?

    So I did the OTA to 2.3.15 a while back, and am now on rubiX 1.9.0. Would the best way to getting to .340 be to SBF back to 2.3.15? Can I SBF to 2.3.320 with TBH and then get to 2.3.340 via TBH update.zip? Sorry if this has been asked before. I'm between a lot of finals and a little lazier...
