What is meant by Radio, Kitchen, Fresh 1.1

the radio is the antenna that the phone uses to connect to the network
fresh 1.1 is refering to OS 1.1 which is the first OS (dont remember its name)

kitchen is supposed to be the means of creating a customizable rom

If its the very first version as in the version that came with it not sure for the Nexus but for the G1 its the RC29.

I see so you don't have that problem when you get calls Zero?

you mean with the names not showing up, nope, when i was on donut i had some issues with text messages not syncing up with the time and some call issues but there was a tool to fix them but i dont remember the name of it, if u are running a custom 1.6 then the tool is usually included, i suggest u make the jump to 2.1 its a much better experience, im not sure how running sense would impact your performance though, i dont have it on mine and my phone is quite snappy

to me guys -> i must say that 5.0.8_DS was the most stable, fastest, and full-featured rom out there.. it kinda makes me sad that i upgraded cuz in order to go back i would need to wipe the phone clean

ok kool... i managed to get a diff recovery image and im now running cm5.08.. with setcpu i have seen some increase in the battery life. But switching between screens tend to drain it abit quicker?!?

So at this point im ok until Gingerbread

you can go into recovery and wipe your battery stats -> that will help with power. and erm.. i dont think there will be a stable release of gingerbread till some time next year so but CM6.0 is fine.. its faster but not as stable as 5.0.8.
cant wait untill CM6 has a stable release

After 1.6 or Donut which firmware is it? I noticed that each time the firmware is updated I notice new features as in Cupcake or was it RC29 didn't have a camcorder only a camera but Donut enabled/unlocked the camcorder feature so I'm going to go step by step to see the differences the enhances or downfalls.
