Yeah, mine had expired since I used it way back when before I upgraded to CL14
On another note, I see that there is a "2.1 problems" thread, but not "Fixes in 2.1" thread. I hope I'm not the only one here, but my phone's responsiveness to screen-on when receiving a call, AND when pulling the phone away from my ear during a call, has drastically improved

yes mine also, although live wallpapers has been slowing my phone down a lot, so much that i had to disable.Yeah, mine had expired since I used it way back when before I upgraded to CL14

Which wallpaper? Galaxy is HORRIBLE, but I find that the starfield works pretty well
Though I did slow it down to 2 and decreased the star count to 250.IOWA, I see that the N1 wallpaper is working well for you. Is that only on the far left screen? The further screens I move to the right, the less accurate the interactive wallpaper becomes

Indeed. Seems to be a bit bugger til some issues are worked out.
Just need to find out how to turn the sexy voice on.

Yeah, the voice is crap, and so far I have not been able to find detour options. Does Google Nav even have detour options or the ability to program multiple destinations?
My radio has shut down twice too, but only after a full days usage of Google nav
What's the benefit of HelixLauncher (1 or 2?) vs PandaHome which I have working great?

I plan on updating and rooting my phone tomorrow morning and I just wanted to be sure of everything I need in order to do that.
Things I need:
Sprint utilty uddater
Helixlauncher
DD03 wit joeykrim v.5
Is this correct?

IOWA - I didn't imply that I could... I have been with Sprint for 9 years now and still feel that they are the best thing out there for the money... I'm just putting my own opinion out there. Isn't that what forums are for... I'm happy to be with Sprint and will patiently wait for their final version of the update...just making conversation...
Me too. As much as I disliked having to use the menu button to "unlock" my phone I sure wish I had that back now. LOL
Direct Dial is merely ok--I'd much rather have my speed dial widget back.
That would be really funny and explain the delay in getting the 2.1 update out because they have been saying for couple weeks that website update was coming this past weekend...
My exact thoughts Immediately after I put the 0 in the last port
Pandora is wunnerful! No choppiness at all not even when changing the mode.
Atleast there isn't the Make uturn as soon as its safe like the Sprint nav did way too many times when getting off the recommended route. But it does go to a different route properly once it's obvious you aren't going to make the U turn. Only problemn is that's when it has gone into airplane mode on me twice.Yeah, the voice is crap, and so far I have not been able to find detour options.

I was not able to get live wallpaper to work with Panda, so I switched to Helix.
Maybe I was missing something ...
I have reflash the 2.1 to get the Joey Krim recovery. I had a few issues. They must have been doing some work on the SDX site, since when I tried to download the file, it thought it was cool, but it didn't work. I noticed that the file was very small, so I downloaded it again. This time it was smaller. It took me a while to come to the conclusion that I wasn't getting the whole file. During that time, I switched my phone back to stock CL14, with no problems. I know many people are worried about that. I can assure you that it is quick and easy. I simply kept my stock file on my computer, so it really only takes about 2 minutes to return to stock (it does wipe the phone of course). The problem I had today was the result of the SDX server and my computer losing connection for some reason. I have been using Google Chrome for a while now, and it gave me no indication that the files didn't completely download. I tried it with IE, and about 3/4 of the way, it told me there was a problem, when I tried it again, it simply completed what was missing. Now I'm up and running with Joey's V5, live wallpaper, the new gallery, and the streaming music fix (haven't tried it yet). I'm getting the feeling that the "official" update is going to be a step backwards from what SDX is coming up with.

you can get helix from the market after you update, are you running cl14 or 1.5, if you are on 1.5 then you want to upgrade to cl14 first and then save the .tar file, then go ahead and update to 2.1 (dd03 w/joeys) it is a breeze.
