Not in my case. Sorry. Scott's ROM just keeps my phone from being as painful as it obviously could be.

Is there a chance there's something wrong with my phone?

I have since loaded up applications and it's not any slower with 10 things running then it is 1 (TF3D), BUT it is slower then the stock Sprint.

What I've noticed with my WinMo phones from the Mogul to the Touch Pro is that as soon as I go below 20mb free space, my phone immediately becomes a paperweight. It is extremely sluggish. As soon as I do a CleanRAM and get free RAM above 20mb it's fine.

I have debated disabling TF3D altogether and just using the standard interface. I don't really care for TF3D. For us command line users, TF3D is nothing more then "Apple iPhone" feel good BS. It does something slower that I already know how to do quicker. Disabling that frees up somewhere around 20mb of RAM.

Okay, good test that I just did with the Sprint phone on the stock ROM, and my VZW pro on SSK 1.5 running a custom built 20954 ROM. Go into File Explorer and click on the Windows folder:

Stock Sprint ROM: about 4 seconds to open

VZW with SSK: About 1.5 seconds to open

Screen rotation:

Sprint and Verizon both go into Landscape about equally quickly, but switching back into Portrait, VZW goes in about 1.5 seconds, Sprint takes about 3 seconds.

Still got both phones sitting right here, Sprint is back to stock because I was going to be selling it today, I can do any other tests you guys would like me to do *shrug*
