Downloaded the 1.6 Refried Combo Rom but, it has major problems... cant enable Max, new taskbar gone after restart etc etc. Could it be a bad flash?

did you flash to stock first? these roms will have major problems like that if you dont flash back to stock and then to root.

Which is a great rom, keep up the good work.

The screen SHOULD turn off during a call to conserve battery/prevent accidental screen touches, but this doesnt sound like your issue since you said it goes "dim" "a few times a week"??
Hitting the center of the Dpad doesnt turn the backlight on for you?
If not your issue may need a re-flash to correct as it *appears* to be an isolated incident but you have to decide if it's worth that.
btw-what ROM, what version?

While Raydogs issue would appear to require Flashdancing (or possibly a re-DL), it is NOT required for a successful flash. I ROM Jump (flashing without Dancing) from/to root ROM all the time and only do The Dance only if an issue arises which is rare considering all the flashing I do. Just my .02.

"I ROM Jump (flashing without Dancing) from/to root ROM all the time and only do The Dance only if an issue arises which is rare considering all the flashing I do. Just my .02"

Agreed. But, coming from Calks' ROM's I hadn't run into the problem for a long time, but did with Root ROM's on my TP.

Got wife a TP that had spl4 & was extremely tough to unlock using .37, tried to go to Root from there & still had MANY flash issues. Finally did the SD hspl trick, then flashed stock ROM, then (settings/system/clear storage), then flashed the ROM...

Now I just clear storage/hard resett (vol down, OK button, power on) each time prior to flash, works great.

My 2 cents.

Best way to unlock spl40 is to flash device to another stock rom that has spl37 and then unlock.
You can flash stock roms without unlocking.

LOL! Sweet... Much easier then what I did... Actually lol... that may have been what actually got it working! I did have to flash another stock ROM, I'll bet it wasn't unlocked when I did it!!

MODS: that should be added to the SPL sticky!! Save a lot of people a lot of time.

Step 2b. or 4.

BTW: Nice hard reset pic, center dpad is often called "enter" or "OK" as well.

NEW update for RootRom Sense 2.1 uploading now.
Mostly just cosmetic changes.
Added Dusk slider tab and retract tab.

Unless someone else makes the Dusk slider work for Sense 2.1 I may try to port it over.
If anyone finds it working please post it or a link here.
Thanks.

Root, I know you swear by SMS Chat but I have a few questions about it. I just started using it and it looks like a really good app. Are there any skins for it available? Also Is there anyway to access the program other than thru the start menu? I mean, can you get "All messages" to open up the app? Thanks!

Was having the same problem, tried reflashing and "flash dancing" butnothing changed. disable sense first before you install Max. I know this is when the start bar disapears, but just make sure you enable titanium at the same time. with the menu bar gone just launch a program and it shows again, install Max, reboot, launch a program to get your bar back, then re-enable sense then you'll be cool... Hope you understand my jibberish... This is how I finally got Max installed on mine, that seem to be the only problem, once installed and as long as sense is enaled its okay.

I do find that the menu bar on the bottom does have some bugs maybe? The wrong icons show with sms/mms tab, email tab, also there is no lock icon while in the start menu. I think in a few other areas we have no or wrong icons too... But other than those few problem I find nothing else... the rom is great...
