When entering into flash mode, press the U key on the phone keyboard, not the PC keyboard.

I know this sounds obvious, but it took me forever to figure this out lol.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA.!!


(sorry!)

My Uptime is now 19hrs, 6 mins @ 900mhz

Overnight battery consumption was approximately 5% drop in 6 hrs (from full charge, wifi connected throughout).

There is a flasher on the device itself. It is called fiasco flasher, and takes the same parameters:
Code:
fiasco-flasher -f -k zImage
Of course, you should make sure that you can flash by using USB before trying a new kernel, since if you flash a problematic kernel you won't be able to replace it with a working kernel on the device itself.

It should hog the battery a lot when it goes over the 550mhz point. Now I dont know if it saves or consumes more battery to run it at 125mhz (with lower voltage) or 250mhz (with slightly higher voltage than in 125mhz mode).

From my experience I dont think overclocking is helping in smooth video recording coz also the changelog published for PR1.1 stated that video recording is optimised to use less CPU. However, here I read someone overclocked the GPU to 520MHz(sorry I dont remember who, was it you Lehto?) so, just wondering if that could be any help to record smooth videos coz I've recorded 3+ videos at 800MHz but with lags. Thanks

Yes i am seeing a problem with micro B
Sometimes it just shows a white page without anything else. The progress bar does its thing and everything is normal but the page is just blank. Happened 10 - 12 times after over clocking. Tried to close the browser and restart it but same result. However after a no. of tries it came back to normal.
I am on 900 mhz
