^^ nothing heavy duty..

pretty neat mod, over all smoother than stock eclairs 2.1 .. which anyways replaces pantheon... with launcher pro it becomes really enjoyable, i dont have to use any tast kiler anymore :)

^^ What do you mean they're not working? They work totally fine for me. The Kitchen mod even routes the voice through the earphone.

Fring hardly connects to Skype for me. Nimbuzz works for me and i have the factory installed 2.1. The only problem is that the voice comes out of the speakerphone. Just read that the kitchen mod fixes it. Can anyone help me apply it?

Hey guys...sorry for hijacking the launcher conversation...this is SOS...well kinda :p

I am getting 2 Spica phones but the guy said the box says the OS version is 1.6 and the price on the box is 14750/-

I didnt know that the spica was ever launched with 1.6...i thought they jumped from 1.5 to 2.1

People who have bought the phone, what did your box say? should i go for it...even if it has 1.6, would the upgrade to a stable 2.1 be easy (i guess it is, but just needed some confirmation)

thanks...!

PS: and yeah...is there any way to tell if the phones are brand new and not refurbished ??
