    there's screenshots on the XDA page. Im just restoring everything now. gonna take fooking ages. First time flashing phone so delighted i didnt brick the phone.

    jaysus im sickened I got that debit card a few weeks ago. Im donating to everyone.



    scrolling through the apps is annoying. I normally just flick and send the screen off down to the bottom of the apps. With this its more like pages and you have to flick it a few times to get down to the bottom of the list.

    Im tempted to switch from Leedroid 2.3.2 to this as battery isn't as good as 2.2.2, or else just back to 2.2.2. Whats performance like?

    It was at about 50% after moderate usage yesterday at 6pm.
    That was from taking it off the charger at 4pm the previous day.

    I'm running CoreDroid 4.7 on mine and find it great. Have tried earlier builds of Revolution and LeeDroid but so far I'm liking this one best

    Put the latest Revolution on there yesterday. Running nicely I have to say.


    What radio's are people using on their DHD's? Looking for one that gives good battery life but also has a good signal on 3.

    Yep, have that installed. But find its signal kinda weak. Was wondering if anyone had tried any others
