Did you(or your many beta testers) not encounter the freezes and resets during months of testing? Many have in under a week of use. Why didn't it get a better build and why isn't there a regular 6.5 version. I never had a 6.5.5 rom that wasn't buggy, but this was the worst. The hard work that goes into making Manila something completely new is no simple task, but if it was just gonna be released like this, maybe it should have come out earlier to the public with a "help us find the problems so we can fix them" attitude instead of "you'll get it when you get it" because your beta testers were fanboys who were so blinded by the bling of a new toy that they search for problems, they waited to come across them. They were probably so busy showing it off to their friends(as they boasted so much on the forum), that they must have forgotten their real purpose.

What`s your point? Cause obviously you have lots of criticism but miserably failed to acknowledge this comes as a result of many hours of hard work by someone who put it out-there for the rest of us to ENJOY for FREE.

If you are going to be so picky and particular and on top of it all SO repugnantly critical; let me suggest you go back to stock ROM or learn how to build your own ROM so that way you will spare yourself the aggravation of living off someone else`s sweaty work.
In fact, Chef did caution that he doesn`t build his rom for everyone. Perhaps you are one of those he was referring to.
Therefore, take your many ridiculous questions, grab yourself a chair, a computer, work your magic and build yourself a bug free ROM.

WahWahWah, Do you say all this to NRG also? His roms are just as buggy and need fixes and patches all the time. Stuff happens, things are over looked, and they need patches. Just wait it out if you don't wanna use it yet, it will get better with the more people using it.

Mike G,
I just don't understand the point of your post. I'm not trying to bash but you are rambling and mixing many different things together.
1. If you have been following Max's thread on XDA, you would know that Max has clearly stated that he does not intend in the near term to release MaxSense as an add-on because he believes that support would be a nightmare and he would not have time to be able to support that (his opinion and he is the expert). This was not Big's choice so why debate that issue here.
2. The operating structure on MaxSense is new. It combines concepts that have been exploited in varying degrees in other software and attempts to maintain speed and memory use (IMHO it does it well). This has lead to a variety of 'can't we do it this way?' requests in both Big's ROM and in others (NRG I believe) that are still responses to "learning" the best or better ways to use MaxSense (there may be several). I have made a couple myself. This is learning, not bugs.
3. Big tried to do a 6.5 version (by user request) but a quick adaptation of the 6.5.x version didn't work very well. He apologized and withdrew it until he could get a clean version (if that works). IMHO this is an 'attaboy' for trying to support the users requests, not a problem.
4. There have been a few bugs in the releases but nothing exceptional and certainly not to a level to support your comments about the ROM and slamming the beta testers.
5. For all your negative comments, I don't see one concrete example of all the problems that you allude to but don't list.

If you are just having a bad day, I'm sorry but your post wasn't very helpful. I don't know if I qualify as a 'fan boy' but I am not part of Big's team. I'm just another TP user looking for the best experience on my phone. Constructive criticism can be helpful but not the post you just left. Just my opinion.

Wow I dont know how much more reading of all that bs i can stomach.

big: this latest sprint release is the best! so far not one problem. zero lockup or any ill side effects.

hopefully i dont get flamed to hard but is there a way to mms in this rom? I dont do it much but when i went to try. I couldnt see the option anywhere. a point in the right direction to get it working if its not would be appreciated.

also in this rom there is no voice recorder? i use that for occasional dictation what do i search for to find a cab?

[ffkip911]

I found this to be a bit more stable than gyrator 2...and disable maxsense autorotation. this cab works for sms/email/music/pics not quite as snappy as I'd like...but we'll see if we can tool around with it for a bit

Edit: hell yea, make sure maxsense autorotate is OFF.
start/changescreen/
enable
run on startup
default orientation should be the 2 LEFT boxes

tap exceptions

manila should have the LEFT 2 boxes checked
everything else UNCHECKED
save
soft reset

now, check what autorotates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

not trying to be an a$$hole but every rom ive used has had some sort of bug even the stock roms that are suppose to be finalized by the "pros"

honestly do you call microsoft everyday when they have a hotfix on windows update...

nothing technology based in this world is perfect because its built by humans and we are humans we overlook things and if theres anybody in this world that has told you they've never made a mistake then they really need to head out to the real world...

Within 3 minutes I thought this was an amazing rom. After an hour I wanted to throw it at an infants face...with all do respect. I don't know the first thing about making roms, but if I did I'd expect criticism. I would want/ask for- criticism.

It just seems like Spb mobile shell, but not as advanced. Also it seems more like an app on top of a real rom. Buggy? ...For sure. I can name like 12 things.
I hope these bugs can be fixed, because I seriously think this rom has potential for being one of the top roms. Until then...with all do respect,


EPIC FAIL!!!

[myturbogsx95]

i dont post much, but I thought I would add my input after reading through some recent posts. I have gone through a few roms in my time owning the TP2. from the first 2.5 releases, all the way up to the most current CHT. I had likes and dislikes about each. I think maxsense is pretty nice, though i was disappointed that it didnt function as the videos i have seen on it before its release. Still nice though, seems very fast when it is running well, sometimes i get hung up where it seems to have trouble shedding the top and bottom 23563 bars, flipping back and forth through the tabs is fast and smooth. fun to customize widgets, look forward to more, i have the first release on my TP2 now and have been using it with no serious problems, battery life is great, wont bother to state any specific bugs as i am sure they will be addressed in good time. I say, keep up the good work, I like where this is headed.

Some one please tell me how you set alarms on this thing. I can't find the stupid button anywhere.

NM, found it. Sort of. Had to turn on the digital clock on one of the home pages and use that to get there.
