I really hope you live in the West Coast and didn't stay up all night working on this :eek:
Anyways thanks for the great work. I actually picked up a copy of Android App Development for Dummies yesterday. Really pysched about getting into the nitty gritty of Android :D

Edit:
I see you added all latest GApps... does that include the new market?

Wiped data/cache, etc. and installed.

Camcorder works but recordings (in high quality modes) is really choppy.

Just tried to USB sync and same result as beta 1 - sync screen pops up and then returns to dock mode - no joy there.

Still saw small bug w/power widget that resolves when you activate bluetooth.

Haven't tried bluetooth voice dialing volume issue I saw in beta 1.

Gmail notifications seem slower in test. Indicator lights also don't appear to function but haven't yet wiped Dalvik after install.

Fastest ROM Ever!
But my phone runs a little warm and the already mentioned issue with the power widget.
Have cleared data/cache.

Dew, this thing is stupid-fast!!!
Only thing was the power widget did not populate immediately. Still had to manually toggle wi-fi to fix. NOT a big deal.

For this issue, just toggle WiFi or Bluetooth On/Off in the settings then go back tot he homescreen. That should fix the issue.

Exact same isue with the camcorder. It has to work for me so I really have not tested much else.

Before installing, wipe data, cache davlik cache and format boot & system manually under the partitions menu in clockworkmod recovery.

Install the zip.

Use for 24 hours. You should not have this issue. Are you using stock sd card?

What is wrong with the market? Applications that I previously purchased on the phone do not show up when I search for them. I went to the online android market on the computer "https://market.android.com", and it says that the app is not compatible with the droid. This does not make any sense as it worked on charity rom 11. Anybody shed any light on this?

Tried it on another Droid. Same results as mine. Too bad, I like the ROM. But I need that indicator light in Handcent. But any new advice and new versions, I'll try.

wipe davlik cache, format boot & system, format data&cache, and wipe cache before installing. i have no problems with lights and i'm running the same exact rom as you guys are.
