Root New .591 Gingerbread (Gingerblur) leak

I'm sure this has been answered but if I use the GB_2.3.3_4.5.591_Deodexed file, do I still have to use the Gingerbreak.apk file?


You will have to use Gingerbreak before you can even use the deodex file because you will loose root when going to v4.5.591.


If you install the fully deodexed v4.5.591, you won't need the deodex file.

You need to have tbh to run the latest totally deodexed leak, though. :)

The version that is completely deodexed is in the link, there are 3 versions there:

Deodexed Apps & Odexed Framework

Full Deodexed Version

Full Odexed Version

I've installed the full deodexed version and changed the pull down notification background, that's located in the framework, using Ninjamorph so it's definitely deodexed.

Just install it, it's like any other apk.

Are you saying to just put it in the SD card like any other .APK, or does it have to go onto the device? If it does have to go to the device, how is that done?

Edit: just went ahead and installed from the SD card, seems to have worked, just waiting for reboot to finish to confirm it worked.

2nd edit: perfect! worked first try and I'm getting superuser permissions granted to all my root apps. Good job, XDA guys

With all the GB leaks, the speed across the board has been faster on mine. IDK for sure about d/l speeds, as I don't spend a lot of time d/l-ing... .591 seems to be more stable than previous, and that should increase speed just by virtue of not having to reboot as often.
Speed is relative, how long do you think it would take a funny car to cover 100 miles, given it is built to only make 1/4 mile spurts with a 75 minute rebuild between those, even though it can get up to speeds well in excess of 300 MPH, it could take longer than an 86 yugo running on 2 cylinders.
