Re: Prefer User Customization or Tweaked ROM

Strip out what I don't need, add a couple things I do and install the rest with UC.
OMJ does great work, as do the other chef's, but everything that meets my requirements (that I can see, anyway) is a mix of WM6 & WM6.1 and every one of the ROMs seems to have a level of instability, perhaps due to the WM6.1 equation.

The instability is actually the primary catalyst for this. Gimme a stripped down stock Sprint OEM base, which will presumably be stable (at the expense of the WM6 memory leaks) and I'll add whatever else I need via User Customization.

I am curious, though - what, or rather how many things are, or were you adding via User Customization, which caused the process to run for 30 minutes?
