Re: Choosing a ROM for a VErizon Touch Pro???

I am newly converted back to Win Mobile from BlackBerry and havent had Win Mobile since 2003se , but I am somewhat familiar with WinMobile in general.

I had the Omnia for about 2 weeks and sent it back in favor of the Touch Pros full keyboard. So I have had my Verizon Touch Pro for about a week now and am very interested in flashing my ROM.

There are so many ROMs out there and I don't fully understand what I will be gaining or losing for that matter by flashing. I love everything about this phone except the battery life , its killing me , it dies on me usually 1-2 hours before I am heading home for the night ,coming up just short of making it a whole day and thats with little to NO internet usage beacuse I am trying to get the battery to last. I would much prefer being able to use the internet at will without having to worry.

Also the Touch Flo is awesome and I wouldn't want to lose that but the Verizon theme is kinda ugly , so I used TF3D config and am using the "black Diamond" TF3D but it has significantly slowed down my device.

Do you have any advice in choosing a ROM to use?

Thanks for your time!

PS The Touch Pro I got has a few cosmetic defects and Verizon is going to send me a new one IF I decide this phone is what I am going to keep, but that highly depends on if I get a ROM running it the way I want, but either way the TP I have now is going back. Is it a bad idea to unlock, flash some ROMs to see whats out there , and in a couple weeks relock and exchange for a non-defective TP , or should I realistically not be "tweaking" this TP that has to go back???

THANKS!!
