To those who have been using the 2.1 ROMS....

[ElAguila]

I have been using this rom for a while now. While it is the same cpu that the 1.5 was running, the new android is better optimized and makes more efficient use of the available ram and cpu speed. I have noticed it to be faster in all the ways that I use it. I saw a big difference in my mp4 playback.

Wolf you should check out DamageControl 2.07.2 Thats what i'm using and have no lag at all so far (fingers crossed)

I've tried both. I've had the same problem with both.

Well.... I didn't realize that 2.1 brings OpenGL ES 2.0 to Android, meaning that they can play 3D games and stuff. Since I am eligible to upgrade in December, I may just go ahead and sell my Pre when the official 2.1 comes out and I see games running on the Hero. N.O.V.A. and Modern Combat are just too good to give up right now. I just really doubt it could happen on the Hero because it's 528MHz Qualcomm, whereas the Snapdragon has its own set of hardware to handle graphics and everything for OpenGL ES 2.0.


Or.....if I can find a Hero for $150 or less I'll just buy one to have on hand.....hmmm.....

I picked up a used Hero for $160, had a few small scratches on the bottom and side but screen is perfect. Rooted, and flashed DC Rom and can't put this phone down. Can't wait for the Evo or Sprint to get another Android phone.
