So I flashed to the 10-15 Titanium release and it was flawless yet again. I worked out the sashimi and flashing from the SD card thing where loading my cutomizations became a BREEZE. After this was all sorted out on my end I started working out all the ROMS that you curently released. '071 & '081 were neat to work with after I realized it was a wait cursor I was loading that screwed up the bottom taskbar. I feel the 21864 ROM is more polished, which vary well may be, because I'm trained on the taskbar being at the top. It seems cumbersome to work on some of the "finger friendly" menus. Graphically it's cool to see the direction MS is going they just need to get some "cool" about what they're designing. However as you can tell I have digressed. I have always flashed my ROM in the "flashdance" method until flashing from the sd card and utilizing sashimi recently, like last few days recently, and not once have I flashed back to stock or done additional hard resetting and my device performs exactly in the same manner as if I had done the flashdance method. Absolutley perfectly and in the same manner without any inadvertant hard resetting/freezing/soft-resetting, quick and and accurate GPS location from live search, sprintnav, google maps, or any dialer (Tachi) or data hiccups. So I guess I'm not sure if what I'm telling you is that the flashdance might just be overrated or that NRGZ28 is so badass that the doing all that extra flashing is a waste of time when using his ROM's. I've read every post in this thread and I know that somewhere NRGZ said that he doesn't believe or do the extra flashing.

Awesome Dude! Thanks for the info. Glad you are rocking the ROM so well! The stock flashdance has become a lot more prevalent. Probably suggested too often actually (I've done it). It IS backed by the Chef as a means of correcting problems, I've read posts of his where he 1) explains why/how it works and 2) suggests it in response to a user posting "problems". Now I dont know if he promotes the process as a
preventative measure but to me I like doing it so I start the ROM with a clean slate. That's just how I roll
I could see skipping the process for a new ROM with minimal changes from the previous build but for major changes build to build (21xxx to 23xxx builds) I'm Stock Flash Dancing Baby!
IMO, despite nrgz being the baddest of the badasses, he cant control how the files get written when we flash (
afaik. But it wouldnt surprise me if he was working on that too
) The files being written to the wrong location is why we sometimes get headaches with the ROM and doing the dance will usually correct those mistakes. It's beyond my paygrade for a more technical explation than that.
I'm with you Bro, this build is solid, smokin' and sexy!! How he keeps one upping himself I'll never know.
