I've been using this since it was posted last night, and it really is an awesome rom. No major stability issues, crashes or deal breakers.

A couple things I've noticed which may or may not be bugs:

1. Is it possible to disable "My Location" for weather? It doesn't seem to work very well and keeps coming up with errors trying to download data, and I'd rather just manually set the locations myself.

2. The home screen won't scroll down past the first 6 Quick Links. There are more boxes below those 6, but the page won't scroll down to make them accessible. This is kind of annoying since there's no separate Programs tab anymore...

3. As already noted, text messages don't display the sender's name, only their telephone number.

4. In Roaming settings, there's a small overlap of text, not really a big deal just putting it out there. See attached.

All in all, I find Sense to be a big improvement for usability, and I'm happy that it seems to be running so well on my phone.

Thanks OMJ!

Works great with ultimate home...figured I'd show a screen for anyone else who might want to try it. Get it...here...that is the version made for the MOST RECENT 1920 build of manila 2.5, works with VGA. The thread is a little long which is why I posted the direct link but it's the 5th post, very last cab file listed here....

How is the battery life? That's one thing I have to watch until I get my extended battery in later this week.

Re: OMJ's | HTC Sense UI aka Manila 2.5 | WM 6.5.1 | 23504 | 11/9/09
 

1. click on the clock. change from my location to your city. then go to weather tab, menu, settings, make sure auto download is unchecked. I update manually & havent seen any errors.

2. this is most likely a porting problem, not much can be done but wait for an update. This was ported from WVGA to VGA. WVGA (TP2) has a bigger screen to access those extra buttons.

I couldnt answer until I can take a break from flashing/testing, lol....but I'm sure it will be a battery killer.

OMJ!
You did it again!
This is awesome!
Very stable, very usable!
I love the quick links on the home screen!
Best ROM so far.

Thank you!!


One small bug... I can't assign the squares under the internet globe to anything. When you hit 'add', you are given the Internet Explorer favorites choices. But they don't work... Just me?
