Well, the fastest our towers are capable of going is realistically ~300-350k/s... or ~2400-2800kbps. I consider myself lucky to get 2000kbps during the day though.
I've gotten pretty good feedback from these posts, though, ymmv.

I used the updated kitchen from TMartin(and Calkulin, of course) with Sense 2.1, then updated the sys to 28205(Thanks to Da_G over at XDA and da_reeseboy).

The only issue I've had is with RunCC, if I leave that program in - The ROM won't completely booting during customization with an error referring to an HTClog. I actually think I've had this same issue with other 280xx sys when I've attempted to port them before.

Also, I use Windows 7 64 bit without issues - I think the first time I loaded a rom from this computer, Windows had to search for a separate driver for my touch pro while the phone is in boot mode. Mobile Device Center is used instead of ActiveSync like Vista. Finally, I use 7-zip and it works well. The only corruption issues I've had was with the sys folder files from 28008(I think), and it's not in his folder anymore.


So, I guess my question is - what does the customization do exactly?


Thanks for everyone's support in advance and especially to Calkulin - he will be missed from the VGA community.

Thanks for the reply. I got 28205 SYS working when I used one compiled by someone other than me... somefrom someone who knew what they were doing (SeeBelow)

"In order to learn more about RunCC and how to customize it, go HERE"
note- If you want to see a REALLY sweet implimentation of RunCC just boot up an EnergyROM.

here's SOHKis' post from Da_G's thread.
- 28205 VGA packaged up all nice for us. Gimme a moment to post the additional files (and folders they go in for Calk's Flamrise tsk)
- All else is "A"-OK with this build as long as you install a dialer that replaces cprog.exe. pyrorob's 2G port is working great for me

HERE is an awesome post on recommended RecMod's for all those interested (Brand New info).

I still can't extract the kitchen. I've tried 7zip and Winrar. I've redownloaded like 4 times w/the same results everytime. Both say they cannot extract archive, wrong format or corrupt file. Anyone have any more suggestions or theories as to what it is
I'm doing wrong?

Edit:

Got it, thanks.

I believe that is COM8. COM2 is plain old 6.5. 28025 is 6.5.3.3

I might be wrong but I think NRG uses Autorun and not RunCC but I may be wrong.
He used to use Autorun and I have not flashed his roms since I started cooking.
You could well be correct.

It seems fine, I haven't noticed any major issues with it; and 28205 is also a continuation of com 3 though.

I was just assuming cause he put a couple really sweet graphics on the customization screen.

No issues with blank incoming caller screens after I replaced cprog.exe with the one I had from 28011. Other than that its a little higher in mem usage (similarly to 28014) but all-in-all quite stable.
