(I started opera with 40mb, it ran down to 2mb)
I might need to flash with a new page pool..

I had the same issues when reading emails. I ended up uninstalling utask then it would stop exiting out of mail when I closed a message. It may have been some unique configuration issue for me but I could never get utask to work correctly with email messages closing properly.

I also ended up uninstalled CHT. My email client would become very bogged down probably due to way too many emails in my inbox. Removing CHT helped speed it up.

Good luck.

I figured it out. I almost gave up and went back to another ROM, but I got it... uTask is set to CLOSE on single tap. This is not the default behavior in other roms and it causes problems with the Mail app. I changed it to minimize on tap and close on hold. I removed the start menu and went with quickmenu. I stopped MS voice command from starting. Seems to be working better. Try a couple of resets and a few hours to see.

Now I get a message at boot that says that SKIP cannot be found.... Everything seems to work. I will check on the Opera issue you linked for me Sharkie. Thanks.

I'm have no idea what SKIP is....

[kyderr]

Nor do I. But it is there, under Sense. There does not seem to be a way in this ROM to change the Windows Mobile Wallpaper. It's there all the time, under sense, I see it once in a while, and I'd like to change that. I am still trying to figure it out. I've got things running pretty well. Pleased overall. Seems pretty quick, but I still run into memory problems. I started using the UC browser, That's nice, but I love my favorites, as I have them synching to my desktop, and that does not work so well with UC. Also Zoom is a real pain with it too.

I checked the settings for uTask on the Energy ROM, (Since I have a "test" phone) I never had problems with closing mail on it. The close button is set to "Close" But when I use that same setting for SharkieROM, it closes the entire mail app. Something is different, and it's not UTask.

Not saying that other ROMs are bad, but SharkieROM is the one I like best on balance. It is stable and battery friendly. With Energy rom, my Touch Pro 2 does not last more than 8 hours. But SharkieROM goes 50% longer. In addition, the wi-fi tethering does not get dropped because the phone goes into sleep.
Thanks Sharkie.

Some file got left behind when you installed a program probably. Go to Windows\startup, and delete the file that causes the error.

Man, I wrote the best post ever, and lost it. Basically, I said that you can make EnergyROM work with Teathering in standby. And I mentioned that I liked the ROM again. Then I said that I needed DRM, and that it didn't work, and Then I checked and Sharkie Mentioned he'd check into it in November. I think that was it. Oh, and I figured out the skip thing. I've got a folder called that in startup. I've had it there forever. I think because I used to Run Cookie 1.8.5 on Energy, that since I never saw the windows default background I never noticed the message was there. I can fix that on my own.

about utask and email... you can add tmail.exe to the utask exceptions list and this will cause the X button to only minimize in that app. The downside is that you will have to go into task manager or something to actually close the email app, but that might be the lesser of two evils for you. I'll look into it more and see if I can figure that one out. I wonder how nrg managed to set that up...

as far as opera, you tried the settings I recomended and are still getting the out of memory issues, I'm assuming. If so, you can uninstall Opera and install your own Opera cab. This ROM itself does not have memory issues, I'm not sure why Opera is for you...

I left opera for the moment. This UC Browser is really interesting, Very fast. Never used it before. I'm playing with that a bit. I use a shortcut to go to the HTC favorites app, but then have my default browser as UC. This way I can still organize favorites using I.E. & Slimbrowser on the desktop.

The best I can tell is tmail ran all the time on NRG. I did get a hangup today in facebook application. Hung so bad, I had to use the reset button.

If you ever want to cook another ROM. Perhaps you could update Motweets & UC to the latest version. I'd recommend XDA Shutdown instead of PSShutXP. Cook back in the sounds, at least HTCs.

I am still having problems with text messages being marked read when coming out of a thread. Not sure what's happening here. It's consistent....
