As easy as they are to add in why not leave it out and let others add in what they want? Then they have no one to blame but themselves if they don't like the one they tried out.

Plus Showcase 1.0.1b has a large screen you can easily read specially if you have trouble reading smaller print.

It works really well.

Thanks for the screenshot, that does look pretty nice. I already threw it in my kitchen a while back but haven't cooked it yet. I'll give it a shot.

Btw, I also put in showcase suite 1.1.0. What's the difference between the two?

I've tried just about every ROM I can get my hands on and this ROM is by far the best I've come across. It's about as close to a custom ROM I'd want cooked for myself as a ROM can get, it's not too bloated with junk and not trimmed down needing me to customize it by adding a lot of things to it. It's fast, stable, and flat out works.

It's just a shame most of this thread is getting cluttered up with people not happy with the lack of a stupid processor meter (I still have no clue why that even matters NOR do I care) or certain task managers not doing this or doing that or to small to read or too overkill. It just goes to show as close to perfection as this ROM is some people are still going to find something to complain about it. Does it really matter if one task manager uses a little more processor than the other one? I mean cmon people.

Showcase 1.1.0 simply doesn't work like half the time with this build of WinMo.

In TF3D, my experience with it was that it worked on initial launch, but after a few resets and nothing else, it prevented TF3D from launching, but Titanium still worked.

This is a known problem by the way acknowledged over at XDA.

A few things I don't like about Showcase though is that it becomes unresponsive too frequently, it sometimes doesn't show all opened apps, and then of course there's the Outlook bug (XDA thread goes into this in more detail).

taskmgr is just as finger-friendly, just as large, and does everything showcase does, and it's most importantly very stable and not known to have any issues.

1.1.0 doesn't have any settings and it also has many problems with new rom builds like screen alignment.

Go with 1.0.1b only.
Other roms had 1.1.0 cooked in and then removed it because of the issues.

Showcase Suite was causing freezing on certain ROMs. I know it was causing an freezing issue on the Eneryrom and I used this fix to stop the freezing. If you read the first few lines it's talked about the benefits of the old Showcase.

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...ostcount=14680

Will it freeze with your ROM? I can't say but I know for a fact that Showcase 1.0.1b runs fine with no freezing.

Actually for some people it does.
I was referring to ram not cpu.
Like Verizon gimped devices with less ram than other providers.
It makes a HUGE diff to them when running TF3D.

I agree with all that.
Just not sure mapping taskmgr is that much better than the stock mapped task manager options.
It is the same app but depending on how it is opened it offers different options.

Oh OK since I'm with Sprint I guess that's why I couldn't see the point in all this. Thanks for clearing it up for me, as you know I asked before and got a smart @ssed reply.
