The 6.5.1/23504 is working almost perfectly for me in every "sense", including Home w/weather animations, People with favorites, Messages with SMS, Mail, Calendar, Internet, Weather with animations, Photos & Videos, Music, Stocks, and Settings. I've turned off the Twitter tab since I Twitter very little; I've actually added that as an Internet favorite. The only minor glitch I've observed is setting the time in an appointment. The "wheels" on the clock leave scrolling smears when moving them, but when stopped appropriately they will set into the appointment correctly. Finally, I'm going to provide details of where I started and what I did to get where I am in the hopes of it helping others.

I was on GadgetRom 1.95a since it was released. I then performed my version of the flashdance that included: a) flashed stock Sprint rom, b) performed a clear storage, c) updated PRL, d)flashed new radio, e) flashed OMJ's 6.5.1/23504, and f) performed another clear storage. I believe a clear storage is (at least?) equivalent to a hard reset. I know this may sound excessive, but it is what I go through to ensure a clean install.

Next I used pimbackup to restore People, Calendar, and Messages followed by setting up my Favorite people manually. I checked the phone by both calling someone and having someone call me. Then I added my city to world clock and selected it as the place to display on the clock. I removed/added cities to the world clock that I didn't/did want. Then I went to weather and similarly removed/added cities I didn't/did want. I updated the forecasts. At this point aninations were working properly on Home & Weather.

Next I set up my Yahoo mail account and downloaded my email. Then, I proceeded to test messaging, by both sending and receiving test SMS's from someone else. I have not tried MMS. I've tested Music, Pictures & Videos from files stored on internal storage. I've tested various settings, for e.g., Personalization, Wireless Controls, Data Services, Locations, etc. I also customized Stocks and updated the results. Finally, given the 6 slots we have for Favorites in Home; I've initially selected Task Manager and File Explorer and tested them.

In conclusion, I'd say OMJ's 23504 rom is working exceptionally well and I am not really seeing much lag at all, if any, using SENSE. Tonight I'll be testing battery usage and will report on that tomorrow. I'll also be delving into more of the START menu programs and reporting on those. If this has helped, please be sure to hit the thanks button.
OK, I just can't walk away from what seems like a brand new phone. Have tested MyPhone, QuickGPS, and GoogleMaps and all work superbly. In fact, never saw GoogleMaps lock in and respond so quickly. As an aside, the radio I flash is V1.12.34F_D.
