get yxflash player
with yzflash player you can play most wmv and xvid files some will slowdown at time but it does work for the most part. I use it daily on my increditble with tv-out.
as for me being in the minority I tried it on a motorola droid and I ran my BB on my droid I use skyfire browser and I can do everything froyo can and I find it runs faster on my droid. Do I have some magic super speed droid no im running 1.2 kernal on my BB, I tried mine set to 800mhz on BB while I had froyo at 1200 still my BB opens things faster so till I see proof its faster on froyo Im staying with Petes BB. I've seen BB get slow when installed over other roms without whiping completly twice. So many may have never used BB at its fullest speed.
Honestly not trying to start anything here im just speaking from my own experience. If im doing something wrong installing Froyo and not getting fullspeed maybe thats the issue, but I tried many times I even whiped 3 times as many suggested in this thread still not seeing it faster or even equal to how BB performs for me on my moto droid.

I've mentioned this so many times, one easy example is the cpu test in Quadrant. On BB, run it and see how long it takes to finish 11/12.
Install 2.2 and see how long it takes. The cpu didnt change, the phone still has the same hardware, but the software it runs on did.... Someone also mentioned Better Cut loads menus or pics faster, cant remember which right now.
Thats 2 examples.

For some reason or another...i cannot update my phone after the baseband update by using *228 or *22899.
If you got a bad download clearing the download cache on your PC will get rid of the old file.

Considering the numbers of quadrant and linpack screenshots here that all show 2.2 being SIGNIFICANTLY faster, I'd say the burden of proof is up to you, not them.
What "tests" did you run? Where are your numbers, or are these all subjective "feels faster", "feels slower" things? How did you install 2.2; did you wipe the data and cache? You leave so many important questions unanswered, then demand proof of everyone else? Sorry, it doesn't work that way.
Mind you, I *LOVE* Pete's ROMs and can't wait for him to put out a 2.2 version so I can move to it, but trying to assert 2.2 is inferior to his 2.1 based products in speed is just silly.

I just scored 1331 a hair below nexus 2.2 550mhz.

I think ^this seems much more reasonable. Every benchmarking app in the market proves our point, so what proves yours?

I'm a HUGE fan of Pete's work (and very grateful to ALL the dev's who work on the Android projects) but 2.2 is simply faster than anything else out there right now.
Is this pre-release evaluation ROM as refined as BB or Cyan?
Hell no!
Is it simply faster?
Yep!
Dont hate on 2.2 just because you love a certain dev's work.... embrace it and encourage them to get Froyo polished enough to wear the BB, Cyan, RR or others logo!

I hate to do this but...brought, not broughten.
Do you get that error message with all files you try to download? You can just download the file on your computer, mount your sd card, and stick it on there.
