you gotta use one of the custom kenal updates after that you will be fine an it should work if your just looking for the option though its in settings and in wireless and network settings

I have the 1Ghz Kernel installed, WiFi itself is working fine.
I'm hooked up to my router with no issue at all.

I still cannot find the option to turn on WiFi tethering though.

Under Wireless and Networks the Tethering tab only shows USB and it's greyed out.

It's not something you'll find in the market. I believe it's an .apk and hopefully someone can link you to it.

actually it is in the market but it came already installed on mine, u sure u dont have wireless tethering as one of your apps?

I'm going to incorporate that into my next reminder in a couple of hours if you are ok with that. Mine was the same way. Laggy when it was first syncing everything then it got really fast.

by all means go ahead dancedroid

Ok, it's all ready for an hour or so from now. I also mentioned initial boot takes like 4 or 5 minutes.

I downloaded the update.zip, wiped everything, and installed it in Recovery but when the Droid finishes rebooting, everything looks exactly the same as on the last ROM I was on (CM 5.0.7.1).

When I go to About Phone it says Firmware is on 2.2 but everything is exactly the same.

WTF is going on?

Still having issues with maps. Uninstalled maps, deleted the apk out of system/apps, rebooted...tried to reinstall, and no go. Other than that, everything working flawlessly so far.

Anyone have an answer on the maps issue?

Hi - I'm having a problem with the App Manager in Astro since installing Froyo..

When I run the app mgr and choose 'backed up apps' so I can re-install all my apps, I click the check mark across from 'Install' to do them all at once but when I hit 'Install' a msg pops up near the bottom that says 'Nothing Selected'. I can see all the apps listed there. All boxes for all the apps have a green check mark in them, and even trying just one app by itself does this same thing.

I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I noticed that instead of everything being at \sdcard, the directory structure has changed. It is now \mnt\sdcard. I tried pointing Astro's home and backup directories to just \sdcard, but then the apps don't show up at all.

Is anyone else having trouble installing apps from their SD card since upgrading to Froyo?

Anyone have an answer on the maps issue?

have u tried using adb pm uninstall after deleting it out of system/apps and before reinstalling? mayb that would do it
