04-04-2010 07:56 PM7.8 is a ESE53 base or software version... 9.0 is an ERE27 (nexus one) software base.
9.0 is the best rom out imo.... do it and you won't be sorry...
just make sure you wipe data and do a factory reset first.

04-04-2010 07:59 PM7.8 is the best of that iteration. But 9.0 is just so far ahead of it. Trust me. I flashed a backup of 7.8 yesterday out of boredom and was blown away by the differences.

04-04-2010 08:01 PMThere seem to be a lot of issues listed in the 9.0 thread though, I have zero issues with 7.8 right now. Have they all been sorted out?

04-04-2010 08:01 PMDifferent base. You WILL have major issues if you do not wipe. You will lose messages, but not photos, contacts, emails, etc. Originally Posted by xythil

04-04-2010 08:03 PMI'd bet 99.999% are user error. Don't get me wrong, 7.8 is a good ROM. I'd probably still be happy with it if 9.0 hadn't come out. Luckily you didn't jump on version 8. Originally Posted by pyro6128

04-04-2010 08:08 PMyes I agree, 99% of any issues are due to someone not following the directions of wiping and clearing the data....
