i haven't tried it out yet. but it does dl faster, flash sites work per demo... and im trying it out. just wondering about it since it can remove youtube and opera mini.

I tried it out yesterday, the new .9 version and didn't like it at all. Was still a little choppy and the text was still a little blocky. Didn't resize and align text as well as opera, but it is good for watching Hulu.com. For youtube, I'd still just use the included app. Here is the post about it. I switched back to Opera.

What about remapping the "All People" softkey in the people tab of TF3D? If we could all agree on a contact manager, I think this would be a great idea.

I'm using iContactBE6.4.5VGA, but I wouldn't object to iContact v0.91 which was just released a few days ago.

This post show you how to do it using SSMaPa.


I sorta feel like this is a selfish request, cause remapping the contacts myself takes like 2 min. Kevan, I just don't know how much you want us to suggest. I do think that remapping the contacts would make your ROM even better, but I'm afraid that it adds to much work on your end (especially with all the bugs/requests SnoopDawg and I have already listed).

I had beta tested Skyfire on my Mogul when it was first released. It was very functional as a purpose specific browser (supporting specific content and feeds) but I never used it as an everyday browser. When I tried installing it on the TP it crashed. I have to revisit the site and get a more current version.

In the stock TP Voice Command was set to initiate with the phone button (left). I've been trying to enable VC with the button but can't seem to get it to work. Not sure what I am doing wrong since it doesn't even let me activate it. Anyone else having an issue with it? Thanks.

Go to Settings, Buttons. Make sure the button is setup correctly. Voice Command has been working fine for me except that it won't announce incoming calls. It does announce TEXT and EMAIL over the bluetooth though. BTW, can't get ANY rom to announce incoming calls over bluetooth or even thru the speaker.

I have the same problem when I first use this rom. Within 8 hours, my battery is complete all gone. To make it worse, the phone locks up every time when I do an overnight charging. I did some research on this site and found that someone said something the USB Cable that comes w/ the box will charge at 5mA while the standard mini USB cable only charge at 1mA.

Don't know if the statment of 5mA and 1mA charging is true or not b/c on the charger itself state the output is only 1mA. Anyway, I have nothing to lose, so I bought one of those standard mini USB to USB cable and use that for charging.

After 5 days of test using this rom and the standard mini USB cabel, the phone have not lock up overnight when charging, and within 8 hours, the phone only uses about 20% of the battery. You can give this a try to see if you can get the same experience.

What version of KK and radio are you using?

Its funny. I read your post, looked over at my phone sitting next to me and it's battery was at 5% left. Phone was left charging on charger and usb cable that came with sprint phone. It was only off chrager for 5 hours. No phone calls, just maybe 6 txt messages and read a couple emails.

I just started using sprint radio v1.11.00F about 5 days ago. Some people have reported issues with it. I'm going to try the Telus radio now.

Actually i have been using a regular mini USB charger this whole time.. Im draining to battery right now and charging it over night with my Sprint Vogue charger to see if anything changes... But thanks for the suggestion xboxp

Sorry for the double post but I just found another problem/worry about this rom O_o... When i charged my Touch Pro, it seemed to climb to 100 percent in a matter of minutes O_O.. then i take the charger out and the battery rapidly decreases.. Any Ideas?
