Please read the release notes for the ROM before complaining about it!
AllDroid - View topic - [ROM .tgz] 2.0.1 Sholes.info Edition 1.2 (UPDATED: 01/25/10)
You need to reboot after opening the WiFi tether app the first time.
ill post that here:
-OPTIMIZATION (all APKs and JARs in /system are fully optimized, to provide vast speed improvements) (UPDATED 01/16/10: Reverted to unoptimized framework-res.apk to eliminate random reboots (this version has a transparent background in the notification window)
-UPDATED 01/25/10: Completely deodexed system. EVERY apk and jar (except core.jar in /system/framework because it can't be deodexed) is deodexed to allow for easy installation of any system apps you might want to install. This also allows for easy changing of certain things such as the clock color (from black to white, or vice versa) and even the lock screen (bringing back the original 2.0 lock screen is planned for a future version).
-2.1 Keyboard which includes Voice Dictation (ported by Berzerker)
-2.1 Gallery app (credit to [mbm])
-2.1 Music app (credit to jinx10000)
-2.1 Clock app (replaces AlarmClock and the Multimedia Dock) (credit to jinx10000)
-2.1 News/Weather Widget
-2.1 Launcher (v1.1a (adds stability fixes)) (credit to xeudoxus)
-2.0.1 Launcher (v1.1a (slightly smaller and includes auto-rotate w/ keyboard closed)) (credit to xeudoxus)
-Multi-Touch Browser (reverted back to stable lib file to remove bugs) (credit to t3hSteve) (UPDATED 01/25/10: Updated it to 1.0 RC3 from his topic)
-Minimum Brightness hack (includes app to edit brightness levels (credit to xeudous and jinx10000) (UPDATED 01/25/10: Added new services.jar to bring the brightness hack to the manual slider (all the way down is 2 brightness))
-YouTube HQ default hack
-WiFi-Tethering (additional setup required, instructions provided) (UPDATED 01/12/10: Easier to use now)
-Ability to remove potentially unwanted apps.
-UPDATED 01/12/10: Added a new boot image developed by trevorj of the sholes.info team, it includes compcache (which adds 65MB of swap space), and the ability to clock the processor to a stock of 600MHz. All in all, you should see vast improvements in performance with this. (UPDATED 01/16/10: Updated compcache to 0.6) UPDATED 01/25/10: Compcache is disabled by default, should be faster without it. Also, no need for kmods.squashfs in /system anymore, everything is in the boot image now.
-UPDATED 01/12/10: Fixed Voice Search FC
-UPDATED 01/16/10: Added option to remove color from bash that was causing problems on Windows with adb.
-UPDATED 01/16/10: Added powertop. (Not for use on Windows (problem with colors)) [Info on powertop here.)
-***UPDATED 01/16/10:*** Manual brightness works!!!
-NO SWYPE KEYBOARD.
-UPDATED 01/25/10: Added libs for dropbear. (mostly works, but currently not complete, not supporting any issues at this time)
-UPDATED 01/25/10: Fixed Wi-Fi Tether. (Also, people who downloaded this before 11:15 AM GMT -5, on 01/25/10 should install again to get it actually working.
Okay, perhaps I spoke to soon, playing high quality content on youtube seems to go great, but when I play content that is natively low in quality it crashes my phone everytime.

How to get WiFi Tethering working:
1. Open the Wireless Tethering app from the application list
2. Click Close or Donate, if you wish. It will then say "Binaries and post-installation files installed!"
3. Close the app, it won't work, so don't bother trying to enable it yet.
4. Reboot.
5. You're done! Wifi tethering should work properly after a reboot (WEP Encryption does not work though (not our fault))
That's it!
Credit also goes to SirPsychoS for his recovery image.
Known Issues:
-Landscape bug in app drawer still exists on Launcher2.
-Weather does not display properly in clock. (It's in Celsius)
-Picasa syncing only works after wipe/data.
-Gmail syncing may break after installation. (WORKAROUND: Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Menu button > Filter > All > Select the "Clear Data" option from BOTH "Gmail" and "Gmail Storage")
-If you would like to remove the new USB functionality (but keep the old one), rename /system/app/Usb.apk to /system/app/Usb.bak and replug in.
-Bettercut doesn't work. (because the Launcher is deodexed)
-Power Control widget may take a while to be usable/update on first boot
I'm going to reinstall this one more time however not gonna load Youtube HQ default and see if that helps.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bought the mod, rooted the phone, installed it and it's working ok but now my navigation doesn't work. I will say for example: "Navigate to XYZ" and it says google maps not available. What do I do?!?!?!
