Like with goomanager or rom manager possibly?

I'll try it later if I don't get a reply back before I have time to try it, I'll post my results.

arrrggg, so .39 is what we should be running now? Instead of the one included with your zip file? Says it's .27 something, should I change to .39 for better performance?

edit:so far the googlenow velvet app runs when copied to system/app but it doesn't look like google now, it's the original google search app even after being replaced, I used the arm6 version from xda
There really isn't a recovery on this build (or any SD build for that matter, unless you go with Neopeek's stuff. Then you have to partition your card, boot & reboot several times to get it installed... etc). It's been collapsed into the boot, and is only used for OTA updates. If you want recovery, flash NAND. Remember, this isn't like a native device. Flashing NAND brings you MUCH closer to that experience. In fact, it's almost identical - about the only extra step is getting the NBH flashed so the bootloader will run Android instead of WinMo.

Regardless, perhaps you should just ask a question, what are you trying to do?!?

Edit - If you want to try the newer kernels, why not. They're up to 3.4.3 I think.
