Root ***Official .596 First Impressions/Reviews Thread***

Well my first impression was horrible I knew something had to be wrong. Had horrible lag. Force closes on a couple things and did I mention it was slow? So i wiped data again still the same. Had an idea, checked md5 sum and they were different but it amazingly still worked. It blew my mind!
I sbf'd back to 2.3.340 and flashed the two part after checking md5s and tada its amazing just thought I would share that with everyone! CHECK md5s!!! Lol
 
Yeah I can't explain it Lex. I didn't have that resolution issue with the stock camera. But now I think I jinxed myself. On this .596 I do have this issue. Lucky me....lol
 
Flashed the deodex .596 right over deodex .595, smooth as silk :)

I notice the screen scroll seems smoother, transitions/animations smooth, app drawer no lag what so ever!

I still have the bug with the camera reverting to WS after I close the application, bummer :confused:

Quadrant score was 1592, pretty decent.

WiFi works great, same range as before....never had an issue.

Cell signal still fantastic, call quality just as good as before.

Thumbs up so far....
 
Mine's a lot better(battery, performance, etc.) besides typing. when i type, randoms words pop up & it skips forward and all this weird crap. anyone think if i do a factory reset it will possibly get better?
 
I guess I'll be the first to say it - no matter how fast this new GB is, .596 with Apex will be faster.

Fab - the time is now ;)

Check your keyboard settings. I turned off "next word prediction" option. I didn't like the fact it would guess the next word I wanted after I pressed the space bar.
 
-Speakerphone mode gets stuck on after removing from car dock after using AUX to play music

-If you get a call while running camera/camcorder, it will crash both of those apps (requiring a battery pull).

-Phone still turns itself on in the night after being shut off.

I had these issues with all of the leaks as well.
