Did Froyo Live up To Its Hype? Are You Satisfied?

[gregsjh13]

I was waiting for Pete to come out with his Froyo rom..it was defintely worth the wait and definitely lived up to the Froyou hype. My Droid has never been this fast.

Yeah my Droid is blazing fast with Froyo.

Hard to say with out a final product to judge......

Agreed; it has made some nice steps forward but in general it is not complete and feels that way. nice improvements, allot of new little bugs... We will see what the final rendition comes out to be like.

The RC is better than I imagined the Final Froyo would be.

froyo was amazing and fast as hell before it quite working. i cant get any of the releases to run after successful install. hopefully i can run the official one when it gets released.

Bugs? What bugs?

I have yet to see a perfect OS. My Macs Snow Leopard is the best I've ever used but its not perfect. If it was I wouldn't have got 3 updates. And if Droid were perfect it wouldn't have got two updates.

I've never used the custom ROMs other then Droidmod so I can't give a comparison but froyo overclocked at 1 ghz simply is the best I've seen on a smart phone. And who knows? Maybe there is another leak waiting?

Its just gonna get better.

I have to agree Froyo was pretty much Bug free.

I for one find froyo to be a big meh

as far as ease of use (I posted a rant) i think it is a big let down.

hopefully they change some things before the official release

Why wouldn't Froyo be easy to use its just a Minor update to an Os we are already familiar with.

Making it a pain to turn it on silent with no vibrate (I have sleep issues and can't even have it vibrate while I am asleep)...epic fail. Why change something that has worked for like every cell phone since vibrate was added to them years ago?

And merging my exchange account calendar with all of the other calenders. [mod edit for language] I use my phone for work and I need to see my appointments separate from all of my personal reminders. It worked fine how it was.

That sucks.Im sorry that 2.2 has not been very good to you.

 

[Dejuanxg]

Id like to get 2.2 but I don't wanna root id hate for somethuno to go wrong.

 

[Bxrider117]

Even though 2.2 is still in the early stages, the sheer speed alone makes it great. The 3G speed is comparable to using wifi. If you are rooted, you must give this a shot.

The automatic update from the market place is a great feature as well. Wifi tehtering is good, but it is something that I had from the custom 2.1 roms.

I'm loving it over 2.1, Its in beta so it's missing things that you could do and have on a 2.1 rom but final build has been released. I'm loving the speed increase, it might not seem like much but haveing a quick, responsive, snappy phone makes it so much more enjoyable. Java is great, I can easily go to a streaming video site, open it up, wait 5 minutes, and watch a movie or tv show with no problems, no downloading and putting it on my sd card. I also like chrome-to-phone, which might not seem like a big deal but save me some time alot when I have to run out or needing to pull a map or something up on my phone. Overall I think it's great have used 3 different versions and finally settle on Bugless 0.1 which im getting 20 linpacks on! More than I could on any 2.1 rom! I think once more things become available like themes and thing for 2.2 and the final build comes out more people will probably find it much more enjoyable.
