Here is what I do.
Go into power settings and uncheck turn off device.
It seems to make the device work smoother.
Leave the turn off screen but uncheck turn off device.

I don't see a separate checkbox for turn off screen and turn off device. The option are dim screen and turn off device. No?

ROOT - rocking the Carbon ROM from yesterday. Runs like lightening! I'm going to put it through the paces for the rest of this week into the weekend to see what's up. Some experiences:

Hotmail configuration through Live didn't work, so I went to the Marketplace to download a new version of Live and the Marketplace threw me an error. I needed to make a minor reg edit to the Aku [like we used to do when Marketplace first came out] - then everything was golden. I got into Marketplace, downloaded the Windows Live cab and was able to get Hotmail runing proper.

When I was playing with the Hotmail config, I tried disabling Sense to see if I could get Hotmail set up with it off. Once I turned Sense off, not having a Settings Icon in the Start Menu threw me for a loop. A quick reg edit will display the Settings Icon in the Start Menu again, but I was curious if there's some cool new way to toggle Sense that I might be overlooking. I don't mind changing my workflow to go to the Settings tab to get to everyting, but when Sense is disabled...how else could you enable it without START-SETTINGS-TODAY?

Arkswitch is very cool. I changed the activation field so it was smaller and pushed to the far left of the taskbar. Now, I can use my thumb to activate it and close all running programs, or use my thumb to access the tabbed All Programs mod [the activation feild for this is now in the middle of the taskbar]. I couldn't really figure out how to toggle between them like you instructed [closing all programs, then clicking the area again or something], but changing the activation area REALLY worked well for me.

I had an Active Sync issue, but de-selecting "click here for faster data sync" seemed to fix it.

All in all I think this is a KILL rom. It has everything - the speed, the stability, the looks. The ONLY thing I'd look to change is the Internet tab. On the February 8th ROM [darkmax combo] I had the "compact" internet tab, which gave me three quicklinks that fit well on our VGA screens. Is that mod possible on this build? I don't want to drop a manila file in and mess anything up, but it's a mod I enjoyed.

A glorious ROM!

threefaces there is a regedit which re-enables the settings button in start menu, its a few pages back u should be able to find it, several of us quoted it.

Oh, I knew the edits I needed to make [some were old tricks]...I was just kinda reporting that they had to be made - and I was curious if there was another way to toggle Sense without the settings icon that I might not know about. I have the ROM running perfect. Really, the only question that I have is whether or not I can get the "compact" Internet tab on this build without issues.

EDIT: thanks given.

Yeah I can't get Marketplace to work right -it says and error trying to reach Marketplace. How'd you fix it? Maybe root can work the fix in with his next update. Maybe even include windows live?

Root - this rom is slicker than snot. Scrolling around Sense is amazingly smooth. All roms usually have some sort of lag or "stick" on certain tabs. I have none of that.

Regarding MMS, I was sent an MMS last night and the notification showed up just fine. However, it took almost 20 minutes to download. Just sat at 0% for a long time. I'm on USCC. So it WORKS, just took forever. Maybe it was a network issue?

i have uscc also and every since the 2/25 builds i have been having connection errors i am currently running the stock rom to see if it is my device that is acting crazy but so far my data has been great with connections i am in chicago i have not had no issues with connections on any other builds before the 2/25 so i am not sure what the proble/ could be i think i will test it on another custom rom and see what happens.

also not to mention i did check to see if there was network issues at uscc and they confirmed that they havent had any issues.

has anyone else experience any connection issues?
