I was just about to say it wasnt working for me either. Great Job. When I get the chance I will send a donation for your hard work.

Also, I use showcase as my taskmanager, with long press send key.

edit: the zoom worked, but now my home tab quick links and soft keys are gone.
2nd edit: rebooted again, and now everything is back. Thanks!

Ok chris, decided to try out your 6.5.X, so far so good. One small thing though, still a graphical error in the menus when not using sense. If I open a menu in file explorer (or any other program), that stretches longer than the screen, the top and bottom of the menu are wider than the middle. Only when sense is turned off (ie. using windows mobile default). I would love to see this fixed as I like to use spb mobile shell and windows mobile default from time to time.

This is also what you reported on the 6.5 builds which were official releases from Microsoft. I am assuming that you are referring to the menu in file explorer while in landscape with Sense turned off. The menus still work just fine they are just a little big for the phone. Unfortunately this is most likely something built into the core of the build and not something I can edit/fix.

Hehe, sorry guys, you know the drill. When I fix something I prefer a cooked version rather than hotfixes (although I will try to release those as well) Yes I did add a few other tweaks along the way

Yes this is what I was referring to. We both know that "official" release was garbage. I thought you may have a fix for it as I have tried some other 6.5.X ROMs and did not see the graphical error. I guess they're using a different system. Of course the other ROMs weren't quite as stable as your ROMs have been.

I am currently running the Sprint Lover's 6.5 Rom published on 4/16, which I am very happy with. Besides for the GUI advantages of the 6.5.x ROM, have users experienced any other key advantages (e.g. Speed)? Further, have users seen any disadvantages in the 6.5.x ROM (e.g. it's not as stable as the 6.5 4/16 release)? Thanks!!

Just noticed that the Help shortcut in the Outlook folder gives an error. The CAB attached below will solve the issue and will install the necessary help files onto the device.

Okay..I looked into the issue and as usual you guys get spoiled. I ended up being able to correct the issue that you mentioned (the pop up menu in Windows Default view within file explorer) as well as also fixed the issue with the overlapping up/down arrow in the phone dialer skin. I will be updating later tonight or early tomorrow morning with the aforementioned items being corrected as well as the included help files (hotfix cab posted earlier today).

Also...if anyone finds any potential problems and/or fixes, do not hesitate to post them so that we can get them incorporated into future releases. (I am currently trying to find one for the incoming call gap)
