Now, let's hope I don't be stupid again.
Is there any setting that allows the screen to wake on a new text?
I don't think that has been asked as much, I've used handcent I'm not sure if it comes with the XDAbuild anymore. In the settings for it there is a turn on screen option but I've never tested it.

Finally have something useful to post:
- GPS was not working for me on my Sprint TP, and I realized I had turned it off in the system settings while using 5/11 AIO. I enabled it, and while everything showed GPS enabled it would never see any satellites; left it in the window like 10 minutes and GPS Test showed 0 satellites. After a reset - changing nothing else - GPS works perfectly and immediately! Thought it was interesting.

- Battery life seems vastly improved with this combination. Reporting is still flaky - I'll go from 80% to 20% - but I can stay green for an hour or two, and I had the phone unplugged all evening yesterday (clicking away lots of battery messages though without it going dead. By comparison I felt lucky to get 2-3 hours of my reasonably-heavy use out of it under 5/11 AIO, and I had run it into the ground in 4 using 3/31.

- I had an odd bug: I wasn't doing anything significant - clicked the 'phone' phyiscal button, I think - and Android got stuck for a minute or so, and then went to the colored X screen. Booted up from the X as usual, found Sprint and signal, but no data. The oddity is that the phone itself did not reset and did not go into WM, Android just jumped to X for no clear reason (watchdog?) and then got into this Android-with-no-data.

Thanks guys for an amazing job!

Mine was running really really hot. And well i couldn't get any gps locks but then again the TP i'm testing on isn't activated anymore. Anyone else getting a lot of heat with theirs?
