ive been messing with it all day now it seems lol

installed liberty 2.0 and it loaded my apps but took forever....had to go to verizon site and export my contacts then import to google to get them on my phone

now im messing with Ti Backup to get rid of all the dumb apps

i have a list still... new theme, get my widgets back somehow, and set up my home screens again since new ROM was like a factory wipe

it seems nice once you figure the stuff out....problem is, looking online isnt too much help since most people have a small clue what theyre doing....they give directions that are incomplete

its like if i asked you how to change spark plugs on a 3.0 chrysler motor and you told me to remove intake manifold then remove plugs - if i had no idea about anything related to cars, i might not realize you need to remove throttle cable and that other stuff....

i think it may be worth it when its done - but if i had known it would be this much of a PITA i dont think i would have messed with it

Looking real hard at the X myself

How are you liking it, now that you've spent a few weeks with it Josh?

Im liking it alot. I hardly even notice the size anymore. Actually my wife's ally seems so small to me now. The large screen is pretty easy to watch movies or surf the net on. O do notice some lag like while I am typing this out right now. But all in all it is a great phone.
