Are they based on pre-release or final ROMs?
I'm deciding between installing these, or the official HK sbf... it'd be nice to have everything already done though. :)

The stock-rom you've linked to is not stock, it has lots of custom stuff and is missing at least corporate calendar and mail. FYI.

This looks like a clean version (from the roms wanted thread you linked to):

BbcRS 2.1-1 (SHOLS_U2.02.28.0) (rooted) from DAGr8 (completely stock except for root)
megaupload.com

Anyway, thanks for the instructions :) Everything worked great once I found the correct rom for my use.

I just downloaded The Solutor's version of 2.1 and i love it. I wish I could have the 2.1 launcher though. Does anyone know if its possible to use The Solutor's version of 2.1 but keep the 2.1 launcher?

The Stock (Thanks DaGr8) and the Modded (Thanks The Solutor) are the EXACT same link! What happened their? Could someone please fix this so i could get a rooted stock 2.1.

One more question: Why don't any of the 2.1 Nandroid Backup's back the 2.1 launcher? They just show the 2.0.1 launcher with 5 screens.

Modded (Thanks The Solutor)
-Email and Gmail removed K9 email is preinstalled.

I've installed the above mentioned modded version of Android 2.1.

It works fine and I really like the apps in the mod - except I really miss the good old Gmail client. How can I install that in this current mod?

PS: If any danes should be reading along I haven't encountered any problems with connection to the mobile network or anything, so the mod should be just fine to install it on your unit.

Did you setup your APN connection? (Settings -> Wireless & Network Settings -> APN settings)

Thanks all, has anyone tried this on the Telus Canadian Milestone? I could have sworn that there was no kernel access on the milestone yet meaning no tethering or overclocking. Do we now have full root access on the milestone?
