Re: my thoughts on the new rom

I installed this new rom last night. it was my first rom i have installed on my touch. very simple to do. process took about twenty to thirty minutes to complete.

Pros:
*Love the WinMo 6.1 and the threaded text messages and the new office "onenote"
*Rev-A is great, seems to work much faster than EVDO in my area
*GPS seems to lock in on my device within seconds. i used it this morning en route to the office and it tracked me flawlessly

Cons:
***TCPMP does not work (the original version), you must find the one that is compatible with 6.1 (you can find it here) http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=30178

***hhc customizer does not allow for the fifth tab (which i normally use for the audio manager) so i lose the ability to play my music from my home screen.


These are the minor issues that i am aware of, and have actually ran into.

Here are questions that i do have for any of you that may be able to answer:

***How much is being charged if any to use gps (with live search, or google maps)?
***I have the $15.00/month unlimited vision plan
***Can we still tether without the extra charges?

so all in all i think that the upgrade is definately worth it. hope this helps some, and hope some can fill me in with my questions. Thanks for all the great work guys
What version of HHC are you using? I tried installing it and it freezes up the phone and forces me to hard reset to fix. At first HTC home 2.1 I thought was the problem but I installed Xplode's version posted on this site and it started working. But when I tried puttin on Hermes HHC it froze everything. Anybody else having this issue?
