Downloading now, will update after using it for a bit

So far it's working really smooth for me. This build fixed the lag issues from 2.3.2. I'm using his 1050mhz kernel though....I got it from Project Elite. I'm working on a Honeycomb theme for this...my 1st theme, so I hope it works out lol.

EDIT: It does have that redraw issue.....wish there was a way to lock the home in memory being that it's a stock build....

What is shocking me is how smooth it runs on a 600mhz kernel. Been running it for several days and it hasn't slow down at all. Whatever he did to his kernels works. I plan on trying his 600 mhz lv next to see how it does on battery life but I thinked he scored on this one. I hope he implements these changes to his other kernels.

Is the low battery notification led not working for anyone else? Didnt work for me on his past builds either but other notifications work like text so Im wondering if its something Pete disabled that can be re-enabled or just a bug?


I do not have the red led either, but I think that has been a problem with the GB conversions to the droid. I get the notification that I am at 15% but no led.

Just flashed this coming off of UD 2.5. It seems to run pretty nice, but after having my phone OC'd to 1.2Ghz, I'm itching to bump the speed on this one. Maybe not all the way to 1.2, but maybe 800Mhz or so?

I've been using the extended battery forever, and I sorely miss the ability to drop my phone in either the dock or the GPS cradle. The fat battery won't let the phone fit. I wonder if I can go back to the stock battery and still be able to use my phone all day without it dying on me (while OC'd @ 800Mhz)??





*Not sure which kernel I should be running, so I grabbed Pete's 1.05Ghz from the PE thread. So far so good? I have the stock battery back in so we'll see how long she lasts...
