i will say that twice my screen has flipped 180*. i didnt see flip it so am assuming this is just a glitch? after a few seconds it went back to normal.

For some reason, this rom forces you to use POP3 to receive emails from Gmail when you set up the account automatically. To access Gmail via IMAP do the following (if you don't already know how):
1. Turn on Airplane Mode
2. Set up a new email account; but instead of using "username@gmail.com", enter "whatever@wherever.com".
3. Clear the check box for "Try to get e-mail settings automatically from the Internet."
4. Select "Internet e-mail" under "Your e-mail provider."
3. Enter "imap.gmail.com:993" under "Incoming Mail Server."
4. Select "IMAP4" under "Account Type"
5. Enter your "username@gmail.com" under "User name"
5. Enter "smtp.gmail.com:465" under "Outgoing Mail Server" and check off both boxes underneath that.
6. Finish the setup then go back and edit your email address to your real Gmail address.
5. Turn Airplane Mode off and enjoy Gmail as you used to.
Hope this helps some people...
