Do a barrel roll!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So I dont have my phone rooted or anything but now I am thinking about it...

Today I was forced to update to 4.5 something or other and now my entire UI is way different and I hate it. I was completely satisfied with the way it was before and now the whole thing has changed... Anyone else have this happen to them today? Any way to go back without rooting? I hate it damn you Verizon!

Is the notification bar like a new blue color and it's kind of transparent?

Ya, and the bottom bar where I used to bring up my apps is different now. I guess its okay you can now make different profiles for work, home, and weekend for your phone and you can also place apps into categories but shit I hate it. I liked the old way the fonts are now new and everything. The only cool thing is the darker color scheme, I guess I just have to get used to it but I sure hate change :P

ok, first off gingerbread and froyo are both processors on the phone itself.. so no, they didn't change you. depends on what phone you had but a new gingerbread android firmware 4.3.7 just came out: You must login or register to view this content.

Im pretty sure that they are NOT processors... They are the Operating Systems that it uses...
