Nope! Just copy the .zip package to the Nexus S and choose "chosse zip fro, sd card"

ITA: No, copia il file .zip nel nexus s e flashalo scegliendolo dal menu

Browser location

Hey Nameless,

Thanks for the rom. I am wondering if this is the problem with just me or if someone can confirm my browser location is shown weird. I tried wipe everything like data/cache and dalvik cache even battery stats but the browser location is still somewhere in europe and not in north america.

Can someone help please?

Maps work perfectly.
