I'm new to the whole flashing thing, and I was really intrigued to see what the hype was about as people were waiting for the unlocker. I didn't know what ROM to try, so I went with Mighty's because it seemed to have the reputation of being the most stable.
Honestly, now that its flashed... I don't understand the reason people were freaking out over the unlocker. I have wm6.5 now sure... and the start menu and window skins look nicer... and there are some minor other polished to the UI and some new program features... But I feel like I'm back to square one again.
My phones resources keep creeping up in usage... I have had some brief freezes, etc. I don't know why there is even a talk about manila 2.1 vs 2.5. I just ended up turning off TouchFlo again and installed SPB Mobile Shell 3.5. The lag when I would first try and slide the TF3d slider was annoying. Mobile shell still seems to outperform TouchFlo and get you to your programs and whatnot, faster.
By the way, I do want to make sure to say that I appreciate the crap out of the cooks, and the Elite Team for all the time they put into this. I'm just waiting for someone to post a definitive review of all these ROMs so I can really understand why I would even benefit from a flash.
