Gingerbread IS coming today

far too many pages to read through everything.
one simple(ish) question.


does the phone need to be rooted to install this?

yes. you need to have root and the bootstrap app in order to access clockworkmod recovery which is where you flash the zip.


thanks for the quick reply.
rules me out though... I'm perfectly happy running stock.

enjoy tho all of you who take the plunge :D
 
Downloading now. I'm a little afraid because the only thing I've ever used RSDLite for is to gain root on my D1.

I think it sucks that you lose root by doing this. But whatever. Like they said, should be rooted by the end of the week... so as long as I just download the stuff that doesn't need it, I'll be fine.

But this new Blur is sounding exciting. Bye Bye Launcher Pro?
 
Are you serious? If you don't know how to do this... then you shouldn't even be trying to flash in the first place. I'm sorry to sound rash, but maybe you should just wait for the OTA, or go browse the forums some more, first. There are instructions for all this stuff posted. You just have to surf a little.
 
I couldn't decide whether or not to flash this or wait for the Liberty update...well I went ahead and did it... I'm digging it so far. That being said I will probably go back to 2.2 when The new Liberty Drops. Once Liberty works on gingerbread I'll be in droid x heaven!
 
Holy Effing S-Balls, Batman!

Really? Stock? No....

I don't have a screenshot app, so I took a pic with my boyfriend's Eris (running Gingerbread).

1803!!!! WHA???!!!!!
 
Loving it

Installed it. Hit a snag when I got stuck in a boot loop but got that fixed. This release runs SMOOTH. I am very impressed with this and I was using the great Liberty ROM, which I loved as well. Highly recommended if you're thinking about taking the plunge.
 
Can't wait till its rooted, im not gonna flash it till then, I need to wi fi tether to play xbox live :)

Well I talked myself into rooting and flashing this.
Install was a breeze. My phone seems a little sluggish tho even after the inital sync completed.

My quadrant scores are in the 1600's .. going to try a couple tweaks and another reboot and see if that helps at all.

Too bad some moron hacked named asteriks stole the app and leaked it early.. o well. i donated and plan on more, waiting to see someone root this thing.
 
I LOVE IT!!! This UI is great, makes my DX run almost as smooth as that pesky iPhone!

I named my droid XL because I love him that much!!!
