[11/23] JD's ROM

[DaPeeps]

Flashed this rom last night. It has none of the bugs I have experienced with the other custom roms Ive tried, such as:

• Soft keyboard causing issues with screen taps (for example, I would tpye "Hello, how are you today?" If I then tried to close the soft keyboard, it would type an ectra Y at the end, then close. It would do this for any letter or button I typed last. VERY annoying.
• All Manilla tabs working with no tweaking needed.
• When opening an application, then opening keyboard, application stays on top, rather than the landscape manilla coming up and making me select the program from the task manager.
• Text messages are clearing the unread count when I read them, rather than me having to manually clear the count every time.

JD...this is an awesome ROM...very fast and very stable with no glitches that I have found.

Many, many thanks!

It makes no sense to me.....

This is not my first phone. I bought this thing the day it came out and as a hobby planned to tinker with it. I am a noob when it comes to customizing phones, but not so much a noob with computers. I did not like the bloatware that I get with each new phone. I want a phone that is custom. Which is probably why a "noob" would go to these forums to learn how to customize their stock phones. I could care less about getting familiar with the crap that Sprint installs and does not allow me to uninstall.

This is off topic but has anyone been able to figure how to enable the ability to figure out what the area code of the number is when dialing the first three numbers. I have been all over the registry trying to see if i could find it, all I found was a folder with all the area codes. Although in my search I tweaked some thing things to my liking which was really cool like 5 reception bars instead of 7. You guys should take a look in the registry there is many many cool things there just be careful. Also I did search, if anyone finds anything relating to a way of enabling the area code thing plz post it.

JD, how are you changing the ROM name on the main boot screen? The one in red text? I've been trying to figure that out and can't find where to change it. Can you PM me or just let me know? I'd appreciate it.

if this is the case what would be the huge diff between JD's custom ROM and Goodthings2life sprint cleanup? I am curious to know and any knowledge for me in this area is extremely helpful
