Hey there, getting to love it. I didn't get any sleep that night (Thursday into Friday), but just kept getting things back to as close to the way I need it for work as I could, then went to work in multiple locations, involving 250+ miles of driving, and got home at 9PM last night, dead tired. I made a couple posts from the Evo, but didn't want to get back on this thread until I could properly respond from a laptop.
At first, I thought I didn't like the Damage Control ROM that much, but that was related to things it was doing in the background as part of the setup, like index hundreds of photos, etc. My camcorder wouldn't work, and I NEED that everyday, as in those travels, I take many mission-critical videos and email them on the spot. I thought I would have to take my laptop with and use a regular digital camera.
But all the issues resolved themselves. I think the big culprit is the 2nd Gallery program included in the ROM, the one with the "slick" interface. It is from some 2nd party, not HTC or Google, and I can't seem to remove it, it must be a favorite of the DC maker. I thought it was the only Gallery, and I don't care for "slick" or "cartooney" if it affects functionality one iota. However, I found the HTC one is in the programs, so all is well.
While that aftermarket Gallery was indexing, and I turned on the camcorder, it was flashing the screen and freaking out and totally unresponsive.
Also, while my programs were restoring from MyBackup, I went to the Internet to see how that worked. Everytime something happened in the background, the little bar on top, which doesn't show while you are on the net, would briefly force it's way into the picture and shoved everything down with it, making it impossible to read, click on links, type, etc., and this happened 100's of times. But I believe that was an issue related to MyBackup's Restore function.
So in the end, I LOVE the ROM. I'm glad I was patient. I basically had no choice, as I at least had the phone and email working, and could work around the rest until later. But by the time I left for work, I was very happy with the ROM, and am getting to like it more. BTW, I'm still tired lol, I'm an old man.
