Root on Incredible 2

[kingsway8605]

In all reality, as well, what is different about Gingerbread??

You must have not tried the new NYTimes bookmark feature yet.

You are correct; what is that?

If you open up the stock browser, go to the bookmarks, the NYTimes is there now.

So is it just a bookmark to the mobile site? Couldn't we have saved that in Froyo from our mobile browsers?

Some things I've noticed...

1. new theme/skin whatever you call it.
2. Gmail notification in tray is different
3. Gmail interface is different (better imo)
4. In the nofication tray, there is a new Quick Settings tab thatshows (Wifi, hotspot, mobile network, BT, GPS with ability to do a 1-touch on/off) plus a quick link to the Settings shortcut.
5. Increased battery life. I've gone 26 hours with alot of streaming from Digitally Imported Radio walking to my car and plugged into my car's aux. I just plugged it in due to a meeting, but I was at 30% left.
6. NYTimes bookmark (i don't pay attention nor visit it)
7. A new Download folder, to I think keep anything you download.
8. menus go a bit faster for me. I was lagging a bit with the phone contact menu page, now it shows everyone's pictures fairly quickly.

Go into manage applications again. Find market. Clear cache and force stop. See if that works.

Personally, I think I'm just gonna wait until they release a gingerbread root, since I already updated; and to my knowledge there isn't a way to revert back to 2.2 from 2.3. I could b wrong though.

Hbsurfer try clearing data for market in manage apps. If you are running a custom rom you may want to make sure you have a backup of your system through recovery too.

And yes there isn't a way currently to roll the device back to 2.2 or root Gingerbread yet. You can root Gingerbread via a hardware method (XTC clip) but you won't be able to go back to S on I believe. I am not rooted myself.

 

[almostimpact122]

Yeah, I think I'm just going to wait for a gingerbread release. Don't feel like paying for the clip.
