Froyo ROM for the Droid now released :D Updated 6-8-10

[blazingwolf]

mydroidworld.com has dropped a Froyo ROM today. Apparently the only thing not working is WiFi (removed to protect the source) but I can't imagine that it will be much longer before that is working also.

You can download and read more here: http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/m...ola-droid.html

Droidforums.net has it posted also: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dro...se-thread.html

New version released last night. Fixes some issues with Market Apps and other things. There is also a new baseband available.

I came here to say just this... I am curious what kind of linpack results people get with this. I would imagine the JIT compiler would be hardware specific.

Not sure yet as I haven't read anything about it. People are saying that they are getting Quadrant scores of 1100 though. I will be playing with this later on tonight so If you don't see something by then I'll let you know.

Some posted Linpack scores. Not done by me but a member from droidforums.


Also, WiFi has been fixed but mydroidworld is offline at the moment. I'll post once I see it up and running again.

Here is a cached page for the new kernels: http://webcache.googleusercontent.co...-wifi-fix.html

I am running this @ 1.0 GHz and I am watching SNL on Hulu right now. I can't wait until can get this themed and get rid of that horrible stock notification bar.

There is a theme already in progress. Looks pretty good too.

I can't wait. I have been hiding my notification bar with Launcher Pro, Home++ style.

with ADW launcher 1.2GHz kernal this bad boy is pretty bitching i do miss Apps2SD but everything pretty much seems to be pretty smooth new market auto-update should be a very nice addition.. just this "maps bug" of it not updating or installing is kind of annoying..

Mine feels faster loading apps than it did on CM or BB. I haven't had any lag on the homescreens since I started using Launcher Pro, and I still don't have any. I posted my benchmarks in the other thread. So far froyo is pretty sweet. This isn't the official 2.2, but it is very real and probably the closest I will ever run to stock.
