I don't really use the titanium. I turned it off and use htchome2 and it seems to work fine on here. A couple of questions:

1) The only app I found so far that doesn't work is IE, the icon is there in programs, but nothing happens when I push it except it getting highlighted. I think I read about this earlier in this thread (or another, it took me a while to remember which rom I was running, lol, I thought I had loaded mystery, but then I solved it), but I couldn't find the ie cab they were pointing to. If anyone has a good ie cab or a link to it, that would be helpful.

2) Doesn't seem to have battery monitor and I always like that and I've never found a cab or documentation for it, so if anyone has a link to that, please post!

3) Opera 10 beta doesn't seem to autorotate or use the zoom wheel. Any ideas how to make those work? I've had similar problems on other roms with the zoom wheel and then somehow it starts working. I wish I knew how or why!

4) I miss the X task manager in the upper right hand corner to close and switch apps. I don't know why they got rid of that. Anyone know how to get it back or something equivalent?

5) I see discussions about themes & .tsk's but what I really want is smaller menus. I hate having to scroll on email to hit send/receive! It's just dangerous while driving! How do I make the menus smaller? Is it just a different theme or tsk? if so, does anyone have one that will work with this rom and give me small menus (without losing anything else)?

Looks really good in general! It's my first try with one of your roms! Thanx for all the work! I really like it so far! I'll comment more after I've played (and skied) with it. Any comparisons/comments/discussions between 28014 and 21882 or earlier releases would be helpful and educational. I see many 28014's out there, is the general opinion that this is the most stable of the new flavors? What does 218xx have that this doesn't?

thanx again!
1. There is a problem with the IE in 28014 - a package is missing so it doesn't work.

2. Battery monitor cab is in this post - http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...5&postcount=17

3. I don't think that version of Opera supported autorotate or the zoom wheel. From what I understand it is in the newest release of Opera 10 tho... sorry

4. The X task manager to close apps no longer works in the wm 6.5.x SYS's, not since the buttons have been moved to the bottom and enlarged. This is just a growing pain that eventually will be remedied.

5. If you want the smaller menu's, I would recommend a 218xx build - its the main wm 6.5 branch that is getting regular updates and is very stable and fast. Just to clarify, wm 6.5 kept the start menu and X on the top of the screen and kept smaller menu's by default. Whereas wm 6.5.x (6.5.1, 6.5.3, etc) has moved the buttons to the bottom and enlarged them and the menu's by default. As a result, HTC's Task Manager no longer works for closing programs because of the relocation of the X.

Thanks for the feedback on it.
