So far it's working really smooth for me. This build fixed the lag issues from 2.3.2. I'm using his 1050mhz kernel though....I got it from Project Elite. I'm working on a Honeycomb theme for this...my 1st theme, so I hope it works out lol.

EDIT: It does have that redraw issue.....wish there was a way to lock the home in memory being that it's a stock build....
 
Still can't get GB to work with Launcher pro without screen redraw lag with every ROM. Will give this a try.
 
Gotta say this has been running well for me so far. I plan on trying the special low voltage 600mhz kernel that Pete altered to run like the standard voltage kernel he included in the ROM.
 
I'm having issues flashing the kernels... anyone have any tips? I'm downloading the ZIP file to my SD card and then attempt to flash it through ROM Manager, and nothing happens.
 
First time I downloaded the 1.0 lv one from Pete - it downloaded to my SD and didn't work either. Somehow my card only read 25kg of the 6MB file. So I deleted it - redownloaded - reflashed and the 2nd time it worked fine. On GPA13 with 1.0 LV kernel and love it..
 
What is shocking me is how smooth it runs on a 600mhz kernel. Been running it for several days and it hasn't slow down at all. Whatever he did to his kernels works. I plan on trying his 600 mhz lv next to see how it does on battery life but I thinked he scored on this one. I hope he implements these changes to his other kernels.
 
Is the low battery notification led not working for anyone else? Didnt work for me on his past builds either but other notifications work like text so Im wondering if its something Pete disabled that can be re-enabled or just a bug?

I do not have the red led either, but I think that has been a problem with the GB conversions to the droid. I get the notification that I am at 15% but no led.
 
For some reason I can't make phne calls correctly. I can make and answer the call, but I can't hear anyone and no one can hear me, even when unmuted and the volume turned all the way up.
 
I installed this on my girlfriend's phone last night and this morning she had the same issue as you whelderwheels613. She could receive a phone call, but no one could hear her. I told her to reboot her phone and she called me and it worked. You might try rebooting if you haven't yet.
 
I must say this is the smoothest GB rom I've tried yet. However, I've been having issues with the speaker just randomly hissing/static (even when the system isn't trying to play a sound). I have to reboot to get it to stop.
 
Just flashed this coming off of UD 2.5. It seems to run pretty nice, but after having my phone OC'd to 1.2Ghz, I'm itching to bump the speed on this one. Maybe not all the way to 1.2, but maybe 800Mhz or so?

I've been using the extended battery forever, and I sorely miss the ability to drop my phone in either the dock or the GPS cradle. The fat battery won't let the phone fit. I wonder if I can go back to the stock battery and still be able to use my phone all day without it dying on me (while OC'd @ 800Mhz)??





*Not sure which kernel I should be running, so I grabbed Pete's 1.05Ghz from the PE thread. So far so good? I have the stock battery back in so we'll see how long she lasts...
 
I love it, it works great. But i have one question. I went into setcpu and the max i can go is 600mhz. Before i used this rom i was able to go to 800mhz. How do i unlock to make it go higher?
