Re: [TESTING] XDAndroid GBX0C 2.3.7 Build

Looking for some input here. I've got a Sprint Touch Pro2 (on SERO of course that I'm trying to keep refreshed as much as possible. I've been using the FRX build for several months now and am fairly happy with it. I tried the GBX0B version, but ran into some instabilities and decided to wait. Now I see there's a new GBX0C and it seems like it might be time to switch. But, I've got a few questions.

1. I see references that the downloadable image has kernal .27, but that there are others all the way up to 3.1. From a speed and stability, should I be looking to use a different one? If so, a pointer on where to read up on them/download them/etc would be greatly appreciated.

2. I'm using Sharkeys ROM on the WM6.5 side. When I look in the \windows\ directory, there are no CSV files. Is this something with the Sharkey ROM, or the Sprint rom, or what? When I tested GBX0B, I just used the ones in the second post (AcousticRHOD400CSV's.zip), but I don't know if that's the best choice. Or do I need to somehow extract the CSV files from a stock Sprint Rom?

3. I've seen references to using a specific brand (and speed) of MicroSDHC card to get the fastest performance. Speed is one issue I've had with the Froyo version, especially in answering the phone. If I'm using another app (like an e-book) it might take 4-5 rings before the slide-to-answer pops up and I can answer the phone. Any pointers to more discussion on this (or direct experience?) I've currently got a 16GB Class 6 RiDATA card which I'm guessing isn't the fastest. I know some cards are great for large files, but blow for small, and others are the reverse so any tips would be great.

Thanks to all the devs on this. New life for an old phone is wonderful!
