I tried sideloading an update several times earlier this year and just had a lot of problems. It kept failing half way through and I got annoyed and gave up. Back in the Cyanogenmod days I would flash updates almost every week. I've just reached a point where I don't feel like messing with all that shit anymore. So I'll wait. lol

Oh man, Cyanogen, nostalgia rush! I had that on my Motorola Cliq!

It breathed life into my Captivate and Infuse phones, beautifully at that. I miss the boldness of Android then.

Man I had a Captivate and then a Skyrocket, but my first Android phone was an HTC Aria. That thing was so tiny! lol

Ah, HTC... They were my first smartphone, though it was old school WinMo slider. I later had the m8, which I still miss dearly...
