No, it restarts after 2 minutes. It runs but not ready.

Ok. Is the rom already ready ?

No one has made one yet. A rom can be made in a day once the cwm works. The cwm is the hard part.

Haha, I can just see PG's and the other dev's that are working on them get flooded with is it done yet, is it done yet? the night after cwm is released..

mtmichaelson has reported to already have a rom ready for testing once we fix CWM compability. He calls it Gingersteem. Which is pretty much a stock os overclocked and tweaked for rapidness and awesomeness.

PlayfulGod has also reported a overclocked kernel for our beloved esteem. We just need to make sure we have CWM working.

Patience is a virtue.

Lets hope not lol

I Must say it since I seen it on both phones in both videos...... Screen protectors on Gorilla Glass is pointless and a waste of money!

The matte ones eliminate screen glare and the privacy ones eliminate shoulder surfers.

And gorilla glass or not.. I might have a break down if I scratch it somehow lol.. gonna prob get the matte ones..

Mines always in my pocket as it is.. Don't want to worry about my keys getting it or something..

And just out of curiousity, has anyone scratched theirs yet? without a screen protector, and how?

The Gorilla Glass is almost impossible to scratch with keys or coins.

Looked up some more info on it again.. Was interesting to find some tests with it on youtube..

Droid X (Gorilla Glass) Test 1 - YouTube

Droid X (Gorilla Glass) Test 2 - YouTube

Test Gorilla Glass Milestone 2 by diditnya (Part I - Test) - YouTube

Although the second didnt have the greatest outcome..

 

[youngnex]

If you guys want to talk about Gorilla Glass, can you guys please open up your own thread. Lets keep this only for Dev talk about CWM and LG Esteem. Thank you.

Video Updated showing CWM rebooting. Just a demonstration that it is booting, running on LG Esteem but unfortunately still reboots. =(

Still testing guys. So wait patiently.

 

[youngnex]

Status updated. We officially have a overlocked kernel running at 1.7.

 

[ShinySide]

Niiiiiccceeeee!!!!

 

[mike28]

You guys rockkk

 

[Prime85]

very fast and responsive.... It will be released once cwm is complete

 

[edip12]

U guys r awesome cannot wait 4 the cwm

 

[Prime85]

Update: been using for awhile now. Phone at 1.7ghz is stable. I changed it to 1.4ghz to save battery but still super fast. Even bootup time is much quicker with this kernel.
