Subsequent flashes met with differing levels of freeze. I have a SPB license for 3.5, but pressing the register key had no effect. All keys were frozen including the power button. The only way to turn it off was to pull the battery. Other times, it let me past the spb screen only to freeze with the hour glass stuck again.

Hopefully the stock flash will let me give this one a try, although it seems strange that it would not work after Task29. Could the version of the Radio have any impact? That seems to be the only variable left.

I have another explanation. The original ROMs had overclocking built-in at a level that was stable on my phone. However, there was some iffiness with it, in that it would start overclocking on some resets and not on others. My guess is that on your phone, the overclocking was kicking in during bootup, but that it was set too high for your particular chip (and it seems pretty well documented that different chips are capable of being overclocked to different speeds). That would explain why only some users are seeing frozen phones, while it was working just fine for everyone else.
I am calling eureka on this

Version 2 of the ROMs have the overclocking tool taken out, and you need to manually install the cab and set if according to your chip. My bet is that v2 will solve your issue, no flash to stock necessary (if you've Task29ed already).
