Thanks for the great work and constant updates. I tried both of the latest Standard Max Manila roms. I've been digging the Sense candy, though usually stay within Titanium. Without adding any apps, the only change I'm making is restoring old contacts/appointments/email/SMS - and it seems shortly after, my Sprint TP would lock up requiring a soft reset, only to freeze up while booting at the radio version screen. I even found myself having to attempt a HARD reset using (power/vol down/enter) and taking a half dozen or more attempts before it would actually work.

The only things that were a problem was getting MMS to work on it's own. (HTC messaging) The messages wouldn't send. Oh, and the dialer screen, once connected, would bring me to the dark FLASH/MUTE/SPEAKER status screen. I couldn't figure out how to bring up a keypad to punch in my voicemail commands. Did I miss an add-on?

Otherwise, these ROMS have the things I like w/o the bloat that I don't. I just worry about these freeze-ups and wonder if I messed up something deeper on my TP along the way.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Admittedly, I have NOT reflashed to STOCK before flashing the ROMS - so I wonder if using an OEM clean up ROM before going custom really would make the difference in this problem. (Knowing it's recommended)
