Can I install this over Zombiestomped 1.71? Or do I still have to SBF back to Froyo?

Just so I can catch up with whats been going on lately I have couple quiestions.
Is there any advatages of using the OTA kernal vs the leaked one?
Im on the first GB build of cm7 that made it into revs unnoficial nightlies. Has he improved battery life much since then?

You must SBF back to Froyo and then get the GB OTA, then the latest nightly - follow the steps in the OP.
Aside from testimonials, I look at it this way:
- It costs a lot of money to develop/test/release updated FW/SW
- Moto/Verizon wouldn't bother to do that just for the fun of it
- If you want to reverse the update at some point it's very easy to get back to Froyo or the GB Leak via SBF
Go for it.
Heard but it seems like evryone else is getting great battery out of this and I still don't. I get like 6 hours tops with light use. I can take my phone off the charger @ 100% and then go straight to sleep and when I wake up 8-9 hours later I'm at like 15%. I just don't get it. I'm also running jakesmod and supercharger option 9. No overclock

Try reflashing and just use jakesmods. I found my battery life was worse with the supercharger. Honestly I still have yet to find anything with better battery life than zombie stomped. I used to get an easy day and a half on normal use. Cm7 on all the latest updates I get about 18 hours or so sometimes more

I have a confession to make.....
I'm still on the GB OTA...unrooted.
I miss CM7 so bad. The last two times I flashed Rev's nightlies, it played hell on my phone. I has to sbf both times and even that was a chore since it was stuck at the bootloader. I never had an issue while on the froyo version, well besides the few known issues.
Dammit I miss my DSP eq.
Sry for the lite rant

It's OK...the first step is admitting you're running a stock ROM. ;-)

I think some of you are misunderstanding what Im asking but im not sure. I dont mean to ask if the OTA is "worth it". All im asking, is if battery life is better since the first GB build in rev unofficial nightlies, and if the OTA kernal is any different than the leaked one. I would flash it myself, but im paranoid about a clean install this time and i dont have time to spend on restoring my phone. Thank you.
I didn't mean any offense man, I was just venting
I think battery life is better. Absolutely
