Can you link me to "Spetrillo's 6.5x"? I like MyCleanImagio a lot, but some of the points in the OP are valid. What the OP fails to see is that custom ROMS fix a lot of the issues that the manufacturer or distributor won't such as the horrible memory leak in the Imagio. However, they are really for enthusiasts.

I have all the necessary tools for flashing my phone sitting here on the drive including the MyCleanIMagio ROM, but just cannot seem to get the balls to do it. I am set in my ways with my phone, and love it.

NSA's link is for the official "MR1 Upgrade" I flashed it before the HSPL. I thought it was better than the stock rom. Had way more free storage memory (100mb's. I had less than 40 on the first stock rom).

Here is the link to "Steve's Imagio Manilla"...

It is 6.5.x (not sure if it is 6.5.3 or 6.5.5) It is buld 25563 so I think that is 6.5.5. Oh - but this is a "do it your self rom" Forgot about that. In other words it comes practically empty so you can add your own stuff. Which is cool for me. But it comes really empty. No Office Suite. No Marketplace. No My Phone. No Teeter (which of course is a real tragedy). PIE as the only web browser. So you have to have all your .cabs ready to go.

To some this might be one of those "issues". To me it is an asset as I don't have to have a bunch of stuff cooked in that I am never going to use.
