I think they have two branches. One experimental where they try new features (MRx) and one common/stable one where stability is key (MBx).

Guys I have a slight confusion,

I know this question doesn't belong here but any help would be appreciated. Here is the question.

What is the best way to restore a nandroid backup. This is what I do. I go to recovery ,back up and restore and do the restore and then wipe cache and dalvik and then fix permission and reboot. The confusion is, is it better to do a wipe data factory restore and then follow the steps which I mentioned or is it OK like the way I have been doing as mentioned above.

Is 6.2 better? Because wanam mentioned earlier that its a downgrade from MR2.

When you use this Kernel you can change Volume gain with an app called Boeffla Tweaks which is automatically installed after you flashed the Kernel. With this app you have much more very usefull tweaks (EQ, undervolting, ...). With the app the configuration of the kernel function is very simple.

has anyone tried jumping from 6.1 to 6.2 without doing a full wipe?

I regularly format cache and format system (and skipping formatting data) in recovery when flashing a new rom. I know a full wipe includes wiping the data as well, but that would mean i'll have to install back everything which is kinda a bummer for me cause i got quite a lot of games in it...

so, I see many saying how great 6.2 is and I'm really tempted to flash it.. just asking if anyone who tried without wipe and had any issues.

I've tried without full wipe from 5.9 to 6.2. Initial error prompting of email, weather widget, and contacts are seen.

I've cleared the cache and data of contacts, weather widget and email to remove the errors, but not successful for email and weather widget.

Next step I did was extracting the weather apk (3 files) and emails (2 files) from the 6.2 rom and got it replaced into the phone (with the right permission set)

It's kind of hassle but wont k ow what is the downside of this. But I would recommend full wipe to save the trouble....:p
