Android 2.2. It's "friendly name" is called Froyo.

sorry to double post but i can't edit my message....hmmm...

If you meant the actual word Froyo, then I think it's short for frozen yogurt.

Indeed it is. That's why in the More Froyo thread there's a cup of yogurt. Next one is Gingerbread. After that I'm shooting for Pound Cake or Cream Wafer.

Your name fits perfectly for all these OS names, haha.

initial install of froyo with no kernel and no apps installed I hit 1090.
thats better than the 702 max I could get out of my cm5071 running at 1.1ghz

Which install of Froyo?

the first one.
on the second I just installed kernel before doing anything else.

P3Droid Kernels

downloading and installing a kernal from this site looks pretty straight forward. Anything I need to know before I do this? I am currently running 2.2. Also I see that the wifi and usb tethering requires a separate program. What do you have to do to make this work, or what program is needed?

I see I need to get the new kernels....

Just follow the directions from the site. If using SP recovery and step 3 fails, u have to use the allow update zip option first. Its right above 'install update zip"

And depending on how your OS is setup on the PC, the file extension .zip may be hidden. U can tell if u download one of the kernels and looking at the file on your PC u dont see .zip at the end. If u dont see .zip at the end of the file name, dont rename it update.zip, just rename it update.

Seems there was a typo at P3's site and I missed it too....

If using SP recovery, if the last step fails (that should be step 4) u have to use 'allow update.zip' option.

It should start with an "H", no?
