Did you try the registry tweak I mentioned in my post # 21017? It will turn off the keyboard rotation which appears to be the problem for this ROM. The only downsides are that it needs to be re-applied after a soft reset (which I sort of solved with mortscript) or if you have a better way, just use my post to refer to the registry entry that needs to be changed.

The other bug is this (and let me say, I feel this would be a rare combination of events but I came across it while sweat testing this and I decided to share it for full disclosure. so everyone can decide for themselves):

(If you haven't added SMS rotation to the G-Sensor app NRG provided with this ROM, then you probably will not have this problem.)

From Sense SMS tab hit menu and reply
turn phone to landscape
open keyboard
close SMS (you should now be back at the Sense SMS tab in landscape with the keyboard open.)
close the keyboard
turn phone back to portrait and you'll notice the phone (all of Sense) stays in landscape.
in order to get it to go back to portrait, you have to open an SMS again and let it rotate back to portrait

Obviously this sounds like a goofy process BUT it is a heck of a lot better than constant soft resets or running without a lock screen. I have tested this "bug" numerous times and Sense recovered every time without a soft reset.
I did just try our registry tweak, and you were right, it is a clunky way to go about it. It does work, but it is a lot to go through in order to get to "normal operation". Thanks anyway

On a side note, I concluded in my long post before yours that I was finally able to use CHT lockscreen at the expense of having to recover Sense by simply re-locking (via standby button on top) and unlocking again on the CHT lockscreen, but I only had to do this if the keyboard was inadvertently slid out by accident while locked. Well, turns out I screwed up that "working" configuration by going back to WM lockscreen to confirm what I posted in that post

Hopefully this will all be fixed in the next release, as I believe it was working in the 7/1 release. I may flash back to find out, that is, if we don't get a newer release anytime soon. I will also post back here if I can figure out how to get back to the "working" state of using CHT lockscreen.

Edit: Turns out the reg fix didn't work, I woke up the device via top button to a black screen with only the taskbar and softkeys
