ROM is compatible with all versions of Clockwork recovery. However you are strongly advised to updated recovery to at least 2.5.1.8 (3.0.0.5 preferred) if you are planning to use Apps2SD as the partitioning has been fixed in this version. You can get this here: Clockworkmod Recovery 3.0.0.5

Important: First boot will be slow and the system sluggish due to various system scripts running. Wait for the phone to boot then reboot once. After the second boot the phone will be much better.

Thanks to: Paul O'Brien, DJ Steve, Frankish, jonuwz, danz0l, andorko. If I'm using something you did and I didn't credit you, let me know.

Are all mp3's working perfectly? Or is that a kernal issue that can't be fixed?

build.prop has been changed to 48MB which improves performance with the JIT. hardware acceleration allows the GUI to be generated by the GPU rather than the CPU.

As for your data and apps you could use something like Titanium Backup.

Yo man

I have to tell you that one of the main reasons for me to switch from the Pulse to the SanFran was your commitment to the MoDaCo community - and here we are, your Froyo ROM is just being downloaded while I'm writing this

FLIB MATE 4 PRESIDENT!!!
(Will report back as soon as it is installed )
