More often than not, (my experience) this is due to stuff auto-running and updating that you're not aware of. After a ROM reload many settings change back to default. Top of my head, here are some programs to check: weather, RSS Feeds, Handmark (?), QuickGPS, email...you should go through the whole list of all programs on the phone basically (because many are possible) and make sure nothing's running automatically that you don't want to.

Also, the default setting under Task Manager doesn't close programs unless you tap & hold the X, so open programs you thought you closed may be eating power - change this to just tap by going to Settings-System Tab/Task Manager/Button Tab and making sure it's set up to Enable X button + End programs by TAPPING X.

Wait, you're claiming that something that was NOT broken in 6.1, worked perfectly fine, no issues whatsoever, was part of the core product, would interfere with a non-issued new Outlook with "add-ons"?

That just makes no sense.

am not sure I understand exactly what u said. Could it be, just could it be, I am not sure that maybe adding several professional pages, more customization....was done at the expense of losing the finger multiselection of emails,texts...I dunno man

. I am just giving th benefit of the doubt

.That feature isnt broken now, it is just different and most people arent ok with change man...I am . I am all for change for the better

I know spb people arent stupid either.

Does anyone know if this rom contains the updated picture mail? Or do we need to install the picturemail cab after flashing? How do you check the version of Picture Mail installed, anyway? I can't find that anywhere.

Thanks-

Jason

The version installed on mine is v0.2.3.3. The version I just downloaded from Sprint is v0.2.5.7. To check what version you have, you have to open up a picturemail thread and then click on Options (right softkey) and the click on About.

What new keyboard are you asking about? The one on the Touch Pro 2? This one?

As far as I can tell, the keyboards are the same on as on the original Touch Pro ROM. I didn't use them that much but they definitely aren't like the one in the above picture.
