I appreciate the input. I'm going to work with Ultimate Launcher for a week or two and see what it can do for me.

I should have been more specific in my request, though. I've read through many of the guides several times, I've downloaded a couple of the kitchens and looked through them. The number of options is staggering, and it is not obvious to me what add-on programs should be selected (if any), whether there are conflicts among the selections, etc.

Now, I've gone ahead and loaded nueSPL 2.47, radio 3.42.50, and built an OS ROM based on 20273; everything loaded OK and once I got a new A-Key from VZW the phone is working. (Of course, it blew away my link to the corporate email system, but since IT reports to me I imagine that won't be a problem for long.)

Here's the thing, though. On most of the add-on program choices I hadn't a clue what I was doing. Some things were obvious from my research (Total Commander, QuickMenu, TCPMP, etc.) and I added Ultimate Launcher based on the recommendation above. But on most of the other choices I was flying blind. What would be useful, I think, would be a discussion on the add-in choices to give newbies and idea of a baseline set of selections. I may be wrong, but I don't believe I found anything like that as I searched the forum.

In any case, I do appreciate the input I received, the guides, etc.
