@abdul No, it's only for the mytouch and G1. The Cliq needs a different ROM and has not been rooted yet.

@David Contacts will come back if you sync with google contacts. One issue I noticed is the Bar Code app uses the UK version of google shopping.

@Weerdal I did it all from my phone using AndroZip to allow me to download the zip and Astro to move it to the root.

Good thing I had backups…this installation erased my call log and *all of my contacts*!

Hmmm…has anyone else out there installed this? Everything seems to run quite a bit slower so far. Anyone else seeing that?

Weerdal :
Can this be done from my g1 without a computer I’m a truck driver and have no access to a computer any help in fo or response will be greatly appriciated plz email me with any kind of response Weerdal@gmail.com

Theoretically, yes. But I wouldn't recommend trying it, just in case something goes wrong and you need to do a recovery back to the original image. If you're going to try it you will probably need Download Crutch to download the file, and probably a File Manager program to move the file to the main SD card directory. If you're on TMO US, I would recommend just waiting another week or so for the official OTA update to be released. Would hate to see someone get a bricked G1 with no computer to recover it.
