It appears some things are best left un-customized.
Can you expound on this?

I use the Windows Mobile 6.5 lock screen (with the nifty slider) and an app called AutoLock or something to automatically lock the device when it goes into standby. By and large, this works fine, but I've noticed a couple of interesting glitches that seem to stem from it.

For one, 6.5 seems to have its own slide-to-answer thing that it wants to use when the phone is locked. It seems like the white s2a and the 6.5 s2a compete for each other when a call comes in. This also results in my ringtone being choppy for the first couple of seconds a call comes in. Whichever answering mechanism is actually used seems to be random.

The 6.5 lock screen isn't all bad, though, and appears to actually FIX a bug with the alarm clock. If the device is left unlocked when an alarm goes off, it seems to just immediately go into the notification area and leave you no quick way to dismiss or snooze. If the phone is locked, however, you get a similar slide-to-snooze and slide-to-dismiss pop up over the locked screen. This is good.

If there's a way to keep the 6.5 dialer from competing with the HTC dialer (I think?) when the screen is locked, I think that would solve my single biggest issue with this ROM.
