                  Hi! i am not really a techie person when it comes to copmuters and doing a software update on my phone. may i ask to those who were able to do the software upgrade as to how you guys processed it? If it's possible as well that you can provide me a step by step process since I checked the link on how to do the upgrade but I find it so technical.

                                    I'm from Davao City, Philippines and I flashed my Samsung Galaxy Ace with this pre-release ROM. I noticed that it became significantly faster and the graphics smoother. I ran benchmark tests and the performance was really improved compared to its previous android version froyo.
