Very nice. I really enjoyed race weekend in Loudon.

ICS is finally utilizing dual core CPU usage. This has generally given me better battery life (on 24x builds....wasn't really on 232 long enough to remember what it was like but it had a bunch of debugging code in the kernel still). And it's faster to boot. Mine shows 40% but after 13 hours off the charger I have 80% cause I haven't done a whole lot with the phone today. When I was camping I made it through an entire day of pretty decent usage.

Well I would really like to upgrade to .246 and see what happens. Can I reinstall if the issue where 4G "breaks" again?

If youre still looking for a guinea pig, i took the plunge with 7.0 to .246. It appears to have worked for me as im currently installing the update, i assume cache wiping and the rest are gravy.

Once you go to 246, there's no safety net of an FXZ. However, a REINSTALL combined with a factory reset instead of a cache wipe is pretty damn close. I can't guarantee anything, of course. You assume all risk if you go that route.

Sweet. Good to know I didn't totally break it this time. Check root and see what happens.

Taking the plunge from .232 to .246 as well. If we can't go farther...so be it.....232 was really good.....looking forward to .246

so rooting is no longer an option, you just install ICS and go get super SU if you don't want root? where is that moron that kept begging for the link to "rooted ICS" when the first wave of leaks came out? sam, this is getting suspiciously like a real linux distro with the slackware style installer and all

[SamuriHL]

What do you mean by "rooting is no longer an option"? When you get to that step it asks you if you want to install root. If you want root, you say yes. If you don't, you say no. Color me confused.

[altspeed]

oh, I haven't been through it 7.0, I just knew you had it all wizarded and I saw you tell hodgewdm to check root, didn't know he rooted, thought maybe you just threw it into the wizard as a standard part of the process, but I guess you wouldn't with the counter showing "if ever"

[SamuriHL]

Never assume. I ask as part of the wizard. Once the update is finished installing and the phone has booted, the next step is to ask if you want root and give you the choice.
