thanks man
overall i like it
the only negative is when unstick App Transition, opening/closing app/setting becomes very slow (in 1.4 i did unstick to make it faster/smooth)

2.1 works well, however 1.4 is more refined, closer to being released, Once 2.1 gets closer to being released it will be the preferred firefox version.

Thanks for the build!

But could you please explain how to use .50 recovery?

I am trying to flash it to my open c with:
adb push cw_recovery_50.img /sdcard/cwm.img

But I get:
failed to copy 'cw_recovery_50.img' to '/sdcard/cwm.img': Read-only file system

You don't have to adb push the recovery to sdcard, use fastboot to boot recovery.

fastboot boot cw_recovery_50.img

or to install recovery

fastboot flash recovery cw_recovery_50.img

Well I've got an sdcard in it which I used on 1.4. Or do I need to initialize it or do anything in particular? I even did 'format' of the recovery menu..

Unless you have used recovery to make a backup, then you need to create all the folders, if you have used recovery to make a backup, folders would have been created except for new_2.1, which is made when you extract 2.1.

if you don't have /clockworkmod/backup folders on your sdcard you need to make them, then in /clockworkmod/backup extract 2.1

in recovery mount external_sd

then post output of

adb shell ls /external_sd/

adb shell ls /external_sd/clockworkmod/backup/

Thanks for the tip!
I managed to get .50 recovery working, but now when I am restoring from external_sd it says:
Error while restoring /system!

No, your sdcard is bad, if you have room on internal sdcard, make folders and extract 2.1 there.

I just did an adb push to the card:

adb push new_2.1 /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/new_2.1/

But when I'm in .50 recovery - it does not see the new_2.1 folder. It only sees the one it created earlier when I did a backup.

Any idea what the heck could be wrong? xP

The version I uploaded is restore only, you could make a zip install if you want, use Google to find info how to build cwm installation zip.

    Yes .50 recovery will downgrade you to 1.4.
