I did soft reset and it seems to be working.

Just my 2 cents worth ,but everything on this rom appears to work correctly and i don't see any reason not to give it a chance to be tweaked and massaged to get the project where we would call it ELITE. It feels fast and is smooth in transition on my device ...no hard numbers to compare it's just the eyeball & breath test that tell me its alright. The most disappointing factor was that the start menu does feel a little disjointed as far as how things are grouped within it and the icons themselves lack the polished look I've come to expect from all the talent thats available for the asking both here and at XDA. Personally, I feel that knowing the work we have seen from the talent working on this Rom, it will get sorted out and the project will find its niche. Thanks guys ...

Thanks for giving it a positive response and a brighter outlook

ok guys.

i don't care what everyone says here, there is something wrong with your install package. i have never, ever had these problems flashing any rom. i have installed, reinstalled, cleared memory, hard reset, redownloaded the file over, reflashed, flashed sprint stock, etc. etc. etc. all giving me the same crappy result - the customizations just will not finish.

so. any ideas on what the problem is?

just tried downloading the sprint version and when extracting its saying the file is corrupt

Edit: NM must have had a bad download.. flashing now

Thank you! A very good post!

On the start menu icons, you are absolutely correct, they need updating (in fact, if you will look, some of them are the standard MortScript icons), and I already had plans on doing so for the next release. But we had you guys waiting so long already that we saw no need to delay the release any longer for such purely cosmetic reasons; after all, this is the first release, to get impressions... wanted a good starting point to continue from.

I also need to re-arrange the menu items a bit... For example, that issue of a Microsoft Apps and Office... But again, rather cosmetic (well in this case, somewhat functional), but figured not a big enough deal to hold off on the first RC.

if you haven't even installed it yet, how do you know it's a great rom? so far, it's problematic and lacking.

i still haven't seen any postings as to whether or not the vidoes will play on anyone else's. it sure as heck won't on mine and it's annoying. i think Starrom has a similar problem. there is just something wrong.

also. and i repeat, there is something wrong with the install of this. i just added a program the phone didn't like, then did a hard reset, and now half of my damn programs are gone again (i would think because customizations don't go all the way through). i mean WTF??? this is NOT right guys. and yes, i'm extremely annoyed.

Hey Dark Lord!

I'm going to have to disagree wtih ya here, my customizations ran through just fine on the first try.

Maybe you have a corrupt download?

i thought that as well. i've downloaded about 4 times now. from two different computers and two different internet connections. it's just the damndest thing. i get MOST of them but not all. and the ONE time i did get them, all it took was a hard-reset for some of them to disappear on me again. i'm honestly willing to try this rom. i like many of the features but i just can't get it to install properly so if anyone has any idea what the heck is going on with my phone, please tell me.

Edit. so get this guys, i had downloaded the rom again and was going to reflash, again. i remembered that i had old copy of a boot screen on my card that keeps wanting to reflash automatically so i was going to take it off. but before that, i accidentally went into bootloaded and activated it so it ran. once i reset the phone and got out of bootloaded, the phone started accessing touchflo3d (i could see the keyboard pop up). i then noticed the "Desktop" icon was back and all the programs were back. dudes, i need some really highend tech guy to tell me we what the heck is going on with this. i didn't reflash the rom, i just accidently flashed a different boot screen (which now i delete that file so it doesn't happen again).
