I know the v1.4 *Update* is only supposed to affect the PDA part of the ROM.

But when I am at home near my Vzw Network Extender, I seem to have more trouble getting a data connection than I used to with the CC20 leaked ROM (the Omnia is supposed to ignore the Network Extender and get data from the nearest cell tower instead).

Up in the taskbar, instead of just getting
white EVDO arrows ----> <------
I get flashes of what looks like a handshake on a blue background

and I get prompted for a password a lot, even though I check "remember my password"

When I am at the gym, work, driving around, everything works great (and EVDO signal strength is better-that's why I have an Extender at home)
(maybe my nearest cell tower at home has gone out?!)

Is it possible that something that was zapped out of the cooked ROM that's involved in telling the Omnia to ignore the Network Extender (if no tower is available, the Omnia will try to use plain old 1x RITT or whatever it is to get data from the Extender if it can't find a suitable EVDO connection). Even though I shouldn't need it, I have done *228,1 and *228, 2, for good measure after the flash to v1.4

TIA for any advice on what might be going on. EDIT: One-off experiment running Memmaid to clean and compress memory seems to fix things up right away. I'll have to see if it works next time the hang-up pops up.
