what are you talking about? When you state something is bad do a comparison so we can see what is the deal.

Ummm.....slower?? I have yet to hear that one. My upgrade works so smooth and stable I really am just tweaking my own version of the rom to make it for my standards. I personally think some things couldve been done differently but if you know what you are doing then you should be good to go ahead and make it more to your standards.

That hasn't been my experience at all. Compared to to 6.5/2.5 ROMS by Mighty or Vin/Plutonium it is as fast or faster, great battery life so far, and no hickups or crashes. Way faster than the original 6.1 stock. Perhaps something your are installing?

agreed. Sprint/HTC did a good job on this. They could have just put out a 6.5 with sense 2.1 and played it safe. It's not perfect but what is. That's why we have great chefs here to take it up a notch.

I disagree that this is faster than MM or Vin's roms but respect your take none the less. Keep in mind, this is the first shipped sense 2.5 rom for the cdma tp2. Our chefs have been trying to give us sense 2.5 roms using other devices and making them compatible. Many of the original sense 2.5 ports were from devices with twice the processing power of the tp2. I really think Mike and our other chefs are going to make this better.

If this is the best that SenseUI has been, then I don't know how anyone could have EVER used it. Fades are slow and irritating... animations are choppy. Text appearance in landscape sucks... and it isnt much better in portrait mode. That flip clock animation is choppy, slow, and irritating. How can anyone really be ok with all this? I didn't like senseUI before, and I think it sucks worse now.

Give it a few days and many of these issues will be fixed with custom roms developed here.

what task manager in settings, from my understanding it is in the start menu?

i cant believe sprint didnt get htc messaging working for mms so they went the arcsoft route, and leave to sprint to ship an outdated ms myphone that prompts for upgrade on first use

Can't find the setting to turn on cleartype for landscape so here is the registry edit

To enable ClearType in Landscape mode:
HKLM\System\GDI\ClearTypeSettings\OffOnRotation = 0 (DWORD decimal)
To disable:
HKLM\System\GDI\ClearTypeSettings\OffOnRotation = 1 (DWORD decimal)

Here are the CMkillers

Shaggylive HTC_CM_Killer.cab
Shaggylive CMProxyKiller.cab

ok,

finiished it up..

well. you must do the task bar cab.. it also does the x to close.. i also did the clock flip die cab..

works fine for me.. wondering about battery life now.. but i have been playing with it a lot.

wmwifirouter is doing it job well.. seems as the gps lag is about the same..

i dont know how it compares to to a custom rom.. but i might play with one soon..

bitches. well you really have to add the task manager cab..

the people bitching about this rom loaded it.. used it with lots of stuff running, not knowing..
