Gingerbread on the D2

[garbageman]

Is there anyway to root 2.3 ota version? Does it work with z4root?

Just use the d3 method: adb or 1 click. Adb is most likely more reliable.

i had all the problems mentions on this thread, i got very luck i did hard reset to factory restore and the phone is best it ever was

Even though I was highly anticipating the GB update, I feel like I'm getting awful battery life with it. With Froyo I could have a day and half with moderate use or a full day with heavy use. Now barely using it, it's dying on me not even a full day. Has anyone SBFed back to Froyo? I may go back to ROMs, but I hated how unstable Liberty became (phone freezes). Froyo wasn't bad, I just wanted something new, but now I'd rather just have stability. :P

I've found MIUI to be far more stable than GB. I got tired of all the resets, especially when unlocking the phone. CM7 and Liberty looked interesting but both have bugs that never seem to get quite worked out. People have also said that battery life hasn't necessarily been amazing for them on either, so I went with MIUI and haven't looked back, but the customization of CM7 is still very intriguing.

As far as your battery on GB, I've found it's best to run performance mode, then turn off all syncing and only use it as needed, and to also run either auto-brightness or toggle as needed.
