    Switching from cwm 6028 Hi Leapinlar, A couple of quick questions: 1. If I want to switch from CWM-6028 to CWM-6036, do I need to get back to stock or can I simply reboot with an SD with CWM-6036 image and apply other zip files? 2. Similarly, if I am interested in Carbon ROM JB 3, which...

    Just out of curiosity, did version 2.0.6 change pixel density or something? I do not know if it is just my imagination, but most of the app icons look slightly larger. Definitely the Nova settings icon is larger than what it was before 2.0.6 upgrade. Regards, RaliR
