Hmm well just looking at it I'd say you might have an issue with the 6.5.x version because the bottom bar witht he start menu might cover up the bottom of the app. But theres always the poss that it'll still work so give it a whirl

Yeah, thats been the problem. Not that it covers that bottom bar, but the OS tries to make that whole menu finger friendlier and makes everything huge so it falls off the side and you can't access most of the icons. Maybe if I get some time I'll test it out myself, but out of all of the previous 6.5.x ROMs I've tried, it's a no go.

I installed the trial of the software and it appears to work fine. It all looks formatted correctly, all icons are visible, no bleeding over the edge. The bottom bar is visible and usable. Looks to be working 100%.

I used the "Touchphone devices" version and the downloaded PocketPC .cab file:

The issue went away after I reflashed. Everything is working fine. I have tons of apps loading, some from main memory, most from the storage card, and I still get 73MB free memory. Working nice and fast.

Thanks. The only other issue I'm having with the 6.5.1/2.1 is that my battery life is really bad. I suspect maybe it's the lumos? Is there a way to completely remove or disable it?

Well, Lumous is meant to help save battery, so I wouldn't think it's the culprit unless the settings are incorrect. If you want to test your theory, you can use something like FDCsoft task manager to end the lumous.exe process and see if it gets any better. As far as uninstalling it you can't because it's cooked in, but you coul go into the Windows folder and delete the program I suppose.

When can we expect a new build with MMS? I installed a cab, but it's acting very funny.

Thanks, I might try a re-flash -- I'm also having an issue with the screen going completely black (usually during a phone call). The phone is still clearly on, but there's just no screen and only a restart gets it back. So, maybe my flash was bad (and yes, I did flash to shipped before flashing this one).

Can you describe what's happening? I don't use MMS so I never include it in my personal ROMS but I can try to include it in the next public build. I'll just need testers for that part.

1. After I get a picture, the data connection turns itself on randomly
2. After I get a picture, it tries sending something but fails....even though I didn't send anything

I'll test!
