CyanogenMod is a free, community built distribution of Android 2.2 (Froyo) which greatly extends the capabilities of your phone.

This version is a release candidate, but you will find it stable for everyday use.

This is an AOSP-based build with extra contributions from many people which you can use without any type of Google applications. I found a link from some other project that can be used to restore the Google parts, which can be found below or elsewhere in the thread. I've still included the various hardware-specific code, which seems to be slowly being open-sourced anyway.

woot!!!!!!

You guys are going to enjoy it.

Aw man, no car dock default audio level on the headphone jack bug fix lovin? It's a froyo "feature", when the dock is detected headphone level is set low because, according to the comments in the source, the user cannot adjust the volume so they set it by default. And the default is so low as to render the dock totally useless.
