While I love my TP2, I have gotten fed up with the slow response times to open SMS, email, browsers, etc. I have pre-ordered the EVO, so I decided to flash my TP2 with a more stock-like Sprint ROM (Sense 2.1, WM 6.5). I installed this one and my phone has come back to life. I think my main slowdown issues before were due to a combination of Sense 2.5 and Cookie home tab.

While I miss some of the features of 2.5 and Cookie, the speed greatly outweighs missing those updated features. Our phones weren't intended to run Sense 2.5 and the lower spec hardware compared to native 2.5 phones (i.e. HD2) makes a difference.

For anyone that has been using 2.5 for a while, I dare you to go back to a Sense 2.1 based ROM and get back the responsiveness you may have forgotten existed.
