New OEM Sprint rom V. 2.01.651.6

[regression]

Does anyone else notice the software keyboard looks different? It seems to have more space between the "keys". For me, it makes it easier to type.

Yes, i have noticed. I'm not sure how i feel about the new rom. I was really hoping for windows mobile 6.5 or at least a major upgrade. This isn't really a upgrade at all. All they basically added was slide to answer and a few tweaks to make the device preform faster. I haven't tested the gps but after just trying the rom for 20 minutes i woulden't get my hopes up. I guess i could either customize it a bit or upgrade to a custom rom.

this may be a stupid question... it says everything will be erased including contacts, calendar, 3rd party apps, etc. Can I do a Sprite backup of everything and after the flash, reload the backup?

Seeing how this ROM was built about 2 months ago who knows if a 6.5 one will ever surface.

Happy to report that the SD card flash worked fine, and DID NOT relock the phone - so I went back to my preferred radio. Now to do another hard reset for luck and start restoring everything I can. Hope Good Things 2 Life will investigate this ROM and update his cleanup package.
