^I see they haven't updated the spell check in "Gingerbeard" yet, maybe in Ice Creem they'll have that fixed.

j/k

I do like the new messaging and weather widgets (blur). Also, the ability to set your default search provider in the browser is cool. Was that always there?

 

[Dejuanxg]

Was always there the only thing I hate so far is the fact that they took out the clipboard :-(

 

[afripino]

^ what do you mean? you can just long press a word to do copy/paste functions. double tap to auto-copy after highlighting.

 

[Dejuanxg]

Yea but there was a paste from clipboard option that let you code what you wanted to paste from stuff you've copied in the past.

I cannot describe the lil visual changes all over GB for the X. One just has to run it to see it cuz its alot...or hope someone puts up a long video or posts alot of pictures...lol .

The main thing I love so far is setting up categories in the app drawer. Its better compared to some other launchers I used. One launcher probably did it better but it sucked everywhere else compared to ADW, Launcher Pro or Go Launcher.

I like the changes in contacts too. Just tried out copy n paste. Works fine in the stock browser on web pages. Some ppl said it woks in Gmail.

Updated and you can get there easily by going to your home screen and hitting the menu key and pressing manage apps then go to the running tab.

I thought I had heard there would be an upgrade to the way the phone handles profiles (e.g. ring, vibrate, silent, phone only, etc.). Is this true?

Instructions at the end of that thread for the gingerbread 3G hotspot. Works great, just follow the instructions to the letter especially the last part on TBH_DX_Tether_Patch_1.0.zip
