What is "gingerbread" ? - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Thanks
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App

Its the nick name that Google's likes to put on their phone operating system version. On every .1 they update they release it with a nick name. So Gingerbread is given to Android 2.3, Froyo was given to Android 2.2 and it just does down the line to 1.5 i believe.

Yes Gingerbread is the new Android Operating System. It is also known as CM7, 2.3.2, or 2.3.3. It is much faster than the older OS! I am using it right now.

It may have been a bad flash. I have no problem with youtube videos on VU 1.31, did you wipe first?

The rom has nothing to do with your youtube app.
Your prolly the first one to report this.
And obviously, you can download the latest version from android market.
What a waste, virtuous is a perfectly working rom, but if you wanna take out all the joy and return to stock then go ahead.

Installing cwm

I'm wanting to install cwm, but Im running KG4 2.3.4 stock rooted. I found ways but have to be running froyo. Is there a way to install it while running gb? If not which is the best method of going back to froyo to install it. Thanks in advanced. I'm usually not one to ask for help, but this is my first Samsung. I have/had alot of htc phones and that's what I'm used to. If some1 wouldn't mind helping I've been to the Bible page. Just need to be pointed in the right direction now. Thanks again.
Edit. Just seen there was a sticky tab in the q&a thread... So now my question is sense I already have that rom installed can I just start at the step of installing the kernel? Or should I do it all over?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App
When in doubt, do it over. You should just be able to install a kernel like Bali however, that has CWM built in.

Since you already have Gbread installed you just need to install a kernel with CWM.

To learn how to flash a rom you first need to learn to search. Look at the sticky in the Inspire 4G General section. It will teach you how to flash a Rom.

Then even after you get help doing it, I would suggest you read up and try and uderstand what you are doing. You very well could end up having a brick that you can't do anything with except look at.

SEE YA!
I was actually really impressed with MIUI. I thought I was going to hate it because of the iphoneish look to the UI so I never bothered to try it but once I did it impressed me & I got the best benchmarks & speed tests out of it than any other rom. But I love my VU & sense :')

I've seen a rom similar to this before, i forgot what it's called. But it basically looks like a themed version of cm7 with some animation tweaks and what not.
It's an old rom but i believe this one was similar to it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169712
But if you want, you could try cm7 or something and try to find a way to get the animations and stuff if you want that.
If u could find out what its called could u please pm me the dl link I would greatly appreciate it
