GB!!!!
I'm rooted and running Liberty 1.5...How do I get back to stock in order to get gingerbread? I, unfortunately, deleted some of the bloatware without backing it up. Will I be able to SBF to get it back to stock? I have a nandroid backup from right after I rooted, but I'm not sure if it was before or after I flashed liberty 1.0. What other options will I have if I don't get the OTA update?
It's crazy to think that just last week people were ranting about the D2 not getting GB..and then this happens hahaha dancedroid Cheers!

If I make a backup while rooted on Liberty 1.5, and I install this GB 2.3.3, I know I lose root. Do I also lose the ability to go back to my rooted update on liberty 1.5 through clockwork recovery? Or if I decide I want to go back, can I just pop back into the CRM menu and restore?

Thanks, Flowah. So I won't have any issues for not having some of the bloatware? I've heard that people can't get the OTA update without all the pre-installed apps...So I'm assuming it's not the case with this release?
I came from Liberty 1.5 too and did just this exact method I told you. Everything worked fine.
I do have a question for the thread though.
[POSSIBLE BUG]
My notifications are acting funny. I have a short half second beep as my notification for google voice. It goes off like 20 times in rapid succession and then stops. Very annoying. It does this for everything. Email, Gtalk, all notification sounds. Anyone else have this problem?
Is there suppose to be a reason why no car dock in 2.3? BTW there are many replacements in the Market, but I downloaded the one you suggested and even though it says doesn't work with 2.2 that well, it brought up the car dock just fine.
Still waiting for someone to check the smilies in Gtalk.
Lights on bottom have gone out again.
My smiles on stalk work fine
And yes I am having that Swype issue too

I have downloaded the gingerbread and am currently using it and I am wondering, is this the exact same version that verizon will eventually push out to us? Because if not why wold I want to sbf to get that one rather than keep this?
