alright. so after my hard reset, everything works fine now. which is weird. lol. hopefully this will be the end of my current issues. as an fyi, i danced with the telus rom from the stickied forum.

now that everything is in order, thank you guys. i am just curious as to why the reception signal is still whacky, without the cab fix. when i danced, the signal bar was working fine. then when i flashed to the new rom it did the "searching" thing again. weird. and sorry this is a little everywhere. i was typing it as i was going through it. lol. ps, sd card is in and still fine, so i pretty sure its not that. but i think i may be fixed. =D
Weirdness for sure but ultimately it looks like you got it. Couple of things-yeah-I've heard syncing docs through MyPhone can mess things up, the number of texts can too, if you have a ton of them make sure you are only holding onto the ones you really need. You said your SD card was out when some weirdness began so it looks like that is ruled out.
The stock ROM you Dance with doesnt really matter from a carrier perspective, the critical element is that the flash back to Stock includes a radio re-write. This is why using a shipped not dumped ROM is important. On the grey screen just before the flash it should say that the radio is included in the flash. Re-writing the radio helps to put all files back where they belong.
See below about taskbars.

only thing i can think of that i didnt do with this flash was hard reset after flashing but root said he never do hard resets after flashing so i thought i would give it a try.

i will try a few more taskbar cabs and see if i get a hit.

thanks again!

EDIT: Got it to work but i dont think the results was worth the efforts i will post a screen shot of what i was doing but i had to install the taskbar you referenced and then installed the one i wanted on top of that with out uninstalling the one you referenced.

i have ran into three different things that took effort to figure out and still love this rom.

THANKS ROOT!!!!!!!!
Alright! So we are 3 for 3 with you guys
The 6.5.x taskbars are still a work in progress and not all of them work across all ROMs. From what I've seen the most common anomaly is the signal icon doing the search thing. Interestingly it doesn't appear to actually effect reception (at least in my experience)
The bilbobrian taskbar needs a signal fix cab, morbidj's does the trick.
The black metal task bar needs one too-I have it if anyone needs it just let me know.
Finally for the latest darkroot there was a signal fix cab included in the rar if anyone missed it. Post flash my reception icon was searching, but I ran the included cab and all is well.

Edit:
Looks good money
