Delete this key. Reset.
UGh, thank god! I just started using Swype and it was starting to get severely annoying that fingerkeyboard would keep setting itself as default.

Won't stick after a soft reset though....

This is definitely one of the best ROMS out there, I got the phone the first week it came out. I was real happy with 6.1 and my tweak cabs, virtually no problems and ran very fast. I only started flashing because I assumed I could get a 6.1 ROM all ready cooked like the way I had it tweaked with cabs.

That really never happened and I just started trying ROMS and some have worked great for a while and then they petered out.

Then I realized that my 6700 ran problem free for a long time on a DCD ROM that was just a modified home screen, until I decided to flash a manila ROM. Ever since then I have nothing but problems with manila.

What I would love to see is just more refinement to make this ROM even better, I think I'm in for the long haul with this phone until they release a suitable replacement for it, so I need to get something reliable sorted out before everyone moves onto "giant screen android" phones.

Personally I'd like to see:

*1. Icons showing up in SPB Menu, I normally wouldn't care but this stops me from using quick links and "advanced mode favorites and recent" because things just show up as a transparent white windows with blue top bars.

For my Skyfire's Icon and the repacked OCT v1.5, which ninjaduck made icons for, are the biggest one's for me that I would love to see working. Here is the ninjaduck repack with icons.

*2. I'd like to be able to keep Swype as a default input method if I want to, maybe not all the time, but at least when I set it.

*3. Is there a way to make a "favorite contacts" shortcut that I can put on my home screen? The shortcut in the program folders goes to "all contacts". Even better would be a widget to the "contacts carousel", but favorites would be the priority.

*4. Not a big deal, (or if it it's possible) but It would be great if I could click on the battery widget and it opened an actual battery monitoring program link in maxsense, I'm constantly checking my current draw to maximize battery life. But I think that without manila it never really draws enough current to sap the battery quickly, so I probably won't be doing that as much. So not a big deal, I do have the program shortcut widget on my desktop. It would be super cool to have a current drain monitor on the home screen, not sure how much juice that would use though? 30mah?



----------------------------------
These are tweaks I do to any ROM, you may or may not want to incorporate into yours, if it's even possible. Not a huge deal, only takes me a few minutes to adjust these settings.


*1. I delete the notification that turns on activesync all the time. This doesn't stop it from working, just not running all the time until you plug in. Taskmanager works a lot faster because it doesn't have to close activesync every time you hit "Close All"

It's "repllog.exe" in notifications if anyone is interested, there are three of them, you only want to delete the one that has the description of "AppRunAfterTimeChange" or something like that.\

*2. Change network from "Global" to "CDMA", no point wasting battery and resource searching for a GSM signal I'm not using.

That's all I can think of at the moment, awesome ROM other wise, thanks for the hard work!
