Thanks. I appreciate your efforts. I've reverted back to stock as I'm on my way out for a business trip and will be back later in the week. I'd love to try it when I return.

any chance we'll see a ROM with all the cabs already installed? i.e. the Freeza ideal ROM or something?

Hahaha I was contemplating that for ease of use....

I think next week I will try my hands on a "Clothed ROM"

To be honest, the Bare Naked series started out as nothing more than an attempt to see how much of the included software I could remove and install separately, as opposed to having to update and reflash every single time a leaked ROM with newer software came out. This would also eliminate the need to update and reflash if any of the software had bugs, was not fully compatible with other software, or just plain sucked on WM6.1, because all you'd have to do is uninstall it and install another version.

I guess this ROM is more for a power user who has the time and energy to install a bunch of CABs as opposed to being ready right off the bat.

BUT rest assured if enough people want it, I would be more than happy to make a ROM with all of this stuff included.

thx for the response and I appreciate where you are coming from. I'll keep my eyes out on your thread regardless. It's very neat stuff

I'd TOTALLY vote for a clothed ROM , I install practically all the CABS (takes ages) to get a fully functional Manila/Sense anyway. I'd just vote for leaving out the carrier specific stuff e.g. Sprint TV etc ....

Looking forward to the next update =D>

Freeza this ROM is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! I have tried them all and this is just a thing of beauty. Completely customizable. Very fast. I put a different version of Opera 9.5 on it and the zoom bar works as it should. The page resizes the text to your zoom level and it it just plain fast. Everything works as it should. Your support is incredible as well. Thank you for all your efforts. I will be using this ROM for a long time. I haven't tried putting the 2.5 manilla on it yet as I am afraid to slow it down. I use ultimate launch with a bunch of custom icons and the interface is just a simple thing of beauty and speed. WELL DONE!

With regards to the previously mentioned suggestion of making the ROM XDA_UC compliant, would this not be an easy way, and perhaps most in keeping with the original spirit of the ROM, of distributing a "clothed" version? There could be a zipped up download of the Optimal, one of the Lite, and a "Complete", each ready to be extracted to the SD card of the user's phone (Sense 2.1 and 2.5 specific, of course). The CABs would still be available as separate downloads for those that wished...

One ROM to cook (two, once the 6.5 is finished), and easily maintained zip files, rather than having to re-cook the ROMs each time something changes in any given sub-program. Seems the best of both worlds to me...

Also, it provides the added benefit of a directory that a user can add their own pre-selected programs to, rather than having to manually install them upon each flash.

Just my $1.05...

Thank you so much for your positive comments! Reading things like this makes it all worth it.

That is a brilliant idea.....I haven't even thought of it. Thank you for the suggestion.

No problem.

I figured that since you could control the order of installation in XDA_UC via simply numbering the CABs, it would also serve to cut down on the number of support requests...
