Re: |HERM|ROM|6.5|WWE| ** EnergyROM 'Genesis' (23016) ** | Built Sep 6th | Manila 2.

I just tried this ROM for the first time out of curiosity (and wanting to see rhodium) and having bounced around a fair bit I have to say this is easily one of the best ROMs out there. There are a few things though that are going to make me go back to mightyrom where I've had the best experience so far, and I figured I'd leave you some feedback. This is just my personal preferences and obviously many out there may disagree, it's up to you whether or not its helpful.

Negative

*Startup sound. Though nice, it means I can never do a soft reset in a quiet room like at church or in a meeting at work, etc. I'd leave it out.
*Memory leak. I don't know if it's a leak or what but I'll easily lose a ton of free memory by regularly opening and closing apps, and the only way to get it back is to run cleanram or reboot. I'm talking it frees up 20mb when I have nothing running, this is the first time I've seen this on a ROM. I don't recall seeing anything about this in the thread, but maybe I skimmed it too much.
Positive

*I love your ROM. The look, the apps included as well as their arrangement, the default keyboard, it's a very polished ROM and I really would like to come back to it. I'd stay with it if it weren't for the stuff listed above. If I don't run cleanram I'm literally sitting at around 91% usage with nothing open, and if I minimize the one app I do open, it autocloses. :/ If there are fixes to the above quirks then I'll stick around. Maybe it's something I did, I don't know (I did hard reset twice). But the only thing I've added to the ROM is tcmp and a month at a times worth of exchange e-mails as well as a few official couple cabs from the first couple of posts in this thread.

EDIT: I removed one negative because silly me I realized it did work in fact.

Ok first problem can be fixed by going into Touch pro tweaks in the tweaks folder.
Scroll down and disable Startup Sound and Startup Animation.
You will no longer hear a startup sound.

Second problem is a problem I don't have on my device.
CleanRam has never had to clean more than around 10 megs with an average lower that 5-6.
Not sure what is happening there.
Runs ROCK solid and stable for me.

You should really give it some more time.
I have used Mighty and a few others and while they are good, this rom is great.

Hope you stick with it.

...that is odd..as ive been running his standard rom for 2 days now without any memory leaking. It may leak a few percent give or take but usually even recovers that leaked memory after a few minutes.All in all this is a beautiful rom with top notch stuff.
My suggestion and im no expert or developer.. try a re-flash. If thats still happening i wouldnt stay with it. Mighty in my mind is definitely on par if not better. Im just a man of style so i enjoy the sleekness lol.

Kinda off topic here but i was playin around with my buddies pro touch 2 and he was having some majorrrrrr memory leakage going on! And this is with the stock telus rom. Really sad for such a great device.

Re: |HERM|ROM|6.5|WWE| ** EnergyROM 'Genesis' (23016) ** | Built Sep 6th | Manila 2.

Upgraded to the Sept. 6 standard version and still love the ROM, but two problems:

1) I'm hating the new slider icons! I tried to revert back to the old transparent slider with the link on the first page, and it installed, but it didn't change anything, even after reboot!

2) Where's the tachi dialer? Seems to be the same MS dialer I'm used to. It doesn't look anything like the picture on the first page, anyways.

What am I missing? I've searched the thread, but didn't see anybody else with the complaints (But if I've missed it, give me a break it IS over 1000 pages now).

This is the Best Rom, If you read through this thread you will find that problems are usually operator error. We all have run into them. Good luck the Rom will be worth it.

The dialer you see on the first page is the MS dialer read the caption on the bottom of it.... Energy uses the Tachi dialer....

If you go to Contacts from the start menu will it then let you see the old call history?
I have Panoramic Launchpad and Resco Contacts installed so I can not test it. LOL

Thanks, I will try a re-flash. I wonder if it has something to do with exchange and me choosing a month instead of the default two days e-mail synced. I figure that's probably something that most don't choose so they wouldn't run into it. I'll see what happens after a re-flash.
