Titanium showed 10 unread texts (I left my phone in the car and was getting updates on the All-Star game) but when I clicked the notification, there was nothing, and the number reset to none!

Then after a soft reset, it happened again the next morning, showed 4, but when I checked the inbox was empty and only messages that I sent had appeared.

Anyone else having this issue??

I had some strange issues like that too. It took hours for texts that I sent to go through, and it would show like I had phantom text messages. Weird stuff. I switched to MightyRom6, they just released a new version today. I will try DCD again next time he updates.

are you using PIM backup, I was using PIM backup and had the same problem with sms showing unread messages when I had no messages, I backed up my PIM with microsoft my phone beta, did a hard reset, restored PIM with microsoft my phone and problem solved.

i have fixed the alarm by overhauling all of my notifications settings. the "reminder" notification works differently in 6.5. i think this base is maybe complete enough for a release.

i was going to go back thru the entire thread and make a list of people i want to help me test, but i feel lazy. i want people who are using this rom on a day to day basis and heavily use the included features. i do not care whether you load up a bunch of cabs or not.

my PM box will be full in 10 messages. please do not volunteer if you are not using this rom regularly and heavily. i want people who will be around alot this weekend and are willing to flash a few times a day.

if you are already testing your links are not being cut off, just need some more people.

I noticed a bug when selecting settings/personal/today/HTC Black or Sprint which brings back the old 6.1 menus which I prefer, the icons become messed up in file explorer when an item is highlited as you scroll along the page.

That's because the .tsk is from WM 6.1. If I get permission from DCD I'll post a 6.5 updated version of it.

please elaborate on the 6.1 menus thing. I am using 6.1 mainly because I hate the menus. Are you saying that the 6.5 user interface is just a patch on top of hte 6.1 interface?

I have searched to find the 6.1 start menu in 6.5, but have not been able to find it.

Here is what several people have mentioned using with 6.5. It's almost identical to 6.1 start menu. http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-...menu-v2-7.html

quickmenu is good, but it requires a stylus. While in 6.1, you can get away without it using enlarged start menu.

the reason I don't like the 6.5 menu style is because it's slower, you can try both menu styles in file explorer you'll notice a delay when clicking menu with the 6.5 style and with 6.1 the response is instant, so my question is can we leave in the rom a fixed 6.1 menu style or can dcd with his genius speed up the 6.5 style.
