Hopefully you will strip out titanium before you post the spbms rom. If you do, I'll load it and test it. I'm actually not using the mobileshell at this point because I'm trying to figure out if that's what's draining my battery. Version 3.5.1 might be worse on the battery than 3.5 was. It fixed bugs, but definitely seems worse on battery (but there are other variables as well, different rom....). I also deleted in startup phcvanga (and mobileshell, maybe something else too, I can't remember, g-alarm, that was it) because I'm trying to increase battery life. I'm using HTCHOME2 (found here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42150 as my home page, it's not pretty or sexy but extremely functional and efficient. Looks like others have prettied it up, but I just use the basic. I don't unfortunately have a quick way to recustomize my favorite contacts, programs and settings with it, that's its one drawback when switching roms!

as I said before, a registry editor would be a nice addition, so would 1% increments on battery status. Do you use Sashimi? Some people load it's stub on the rom so it's ready to go. Sashimi really saves time, I just use it now for owner info, email setup and quick reinstall of my favorite cabs. It could do much more, but I haven't at this point. If I look at xml provisioning of regedits for personal settings, that would be my next step! The only other things I've installed on top are lockdevice v1.6 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=542482 and my gps exercise program sportypal http://www.sportypal.com/Downloads/winmo/SportyPal.CAB. If you try them and like them, you might want to add them to your rom as well. They both work very well!

ok, I guess I load spb backup as well, I don't know why except that I own it and I'm super paranoid about backup, but I just recustomize and activesync. I really don't like restoring after different roms, too many unknowns. I would probably only use it if I somehow lost my outlook database or activesync capabilities.

There, now you have my entire configuration except my emails and personal settings.

I'll keep my eye out for your rom & report back after I load it. The only thing that would really help me is the space from not having titanium (or manilla) on the rom. Without that, it's hard for me to justify re-flashing. Since I disabled the rhodium skin, I haven't found a single bug. Just trying to tweak performance and battery at this point.

thanks again for all your work! I like what you've put out there

Mr. O,

I like spb, it's pretty and all, but I'm still not 100% sold. My favorite cleanest interface is still HTCHOME2, no swiping at all, it's easy enough for me (and anyone else) to install from the above referenced cab, as are my other favorite toys (including ms spb 3.5.2 if so desired, http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/pock.../download.html ).

That said, I would really love a stripped down version of your rom, without manilla or titanium since I never use them and I gotta think they take a lot of space up (although I could be wrong). I would also love it if you loaded on phmregedit or some other registry editor since I only have an .msi file for it and it doesn't install for me, (I don't know why). I've been using CEregEditor from my PC, but I really liked phmregedit when I've tried it before on other roms, (although I like it well hidden on the rom in tools or something so it doesn't ever accidently get loaded).

Thanx again, loved your rom over the last two weeks, but it's almost time for me to flash again, hopefully to the stripped down obviously stable rom. Probably need to flash to shipped, relock and bring my phone to the sprint store first, I've got a small crack in the plastic inside, where the stylus is held and now it's spread to the side of the phone and the screen is even lifting up and getting a little flaky. Sometimes I think I should get a droid or something google, but where's the fun in that!
