★SharkieROM & Kitchen★Final Update★Version 5.1★Generic\Sprint★29020\21916★Sense2021

I prefer opera mini over UCWeb, it may be a tad bit slower, but it provides the entire webpage and not just the mobile version. 6.5.X is amazing!!! So easily operated and haven't seen any bugs yet!

My phone has been CRASHING a lot with this ROM. I have tried more vanilla versions, but, I think it's just not meant to be.....

Sorry to hear that. I know that most users do not experience this nor did I when I was regularly using my TP2. If and when you have the time, list all apps, mods, and tweaks you install on the ROM. How many email accts do you have set up with how much mail. Did you change the page pool, if so to what size. Are you overclocking and if so, to what speed. Have you reformatted your SD card lately.

Maybe you're right, and this ROM on your phone is just not meant to be. Dunno what else to tell you, sorry

I used Opera Mini exclusively for quite some time, but it started bogging down for me. Sometimes a page or pages will refuse to load. I tried running it on several different devices and different Rom's with the same result. I came to the conclusion that we were not meant to be together. I do still use it at times, but seem to have similar results. Has your experience been different there?

I flashed a couple of times, Task'd 29 between. Tried it vanilla without any cabs or mods, still had some of the problems. I did not change the PP. It's a bummer, but something in the ROM was really messing with the phone. It would not even dial. I couldn't get CPROG up and I couldn't use it as a phone. even after 10 restarts. I had to flash again. I'm back on the NRG. I will know shortly if the phone is just dying or if it's a ROM issue. I do not overclock. Tried it many times, and the phone crashes eventually on me. Last time it did, it scrambled the password settings so bad, that the phone was locked out for 23767 days. I had no desire to wait that long. So I removed overclocking. I also deleted it from my computer and I set fire to a CD with it on it. I'm paranoid now about it.

I noticed a few things I liked on the ROM.
Mail is set to Storage card by default. Where is that Regkey?
I can see the signatures on the emails are different from different ROMs, but countless searches have not revealed where those signatures live. Does anyone have a good way to backup signatures on e-mail?

I like the UC browser, I am going to install it manually.

The ROM was really fast on somethings and not so fast on others. It was strange. Opening the windows folder in file explorer was super fast. Opening mail was super slow..

I might come back, but right now I am working in an Emergency Operations Center for some floods and I need my phone to behave.

Thanks All.

It was not loading because of a connection issue. I like the GUI of Opera better than the UC Web browser and it's very simple. Since opera mini does not have flash or anything don't expect it to have animations and such.

Also I have had no problems but 1, when I try to type 2 sentences basically I type the first sentence and put a period and then start the second sentence and if I press space bar after the first word of the second sentence it deletes that word and starts over all the time. So I can't write more than 1 sentence without problems. That's on the 6.5 rom, my bro has a 6.5.x rom on his and he can type many sentences on his TP2 without problems.

I have a tp2 from sprint I purchased after my 1st took a swim. It came with sharkie rom installed, and the touchscreen simply stopped working yesterday all the sudden.
I am not very familiar with fixing these kind of things, but if you can help I will be eternally grateful.
I have performed a hard reset, which did absolutely nothing,
Please help!

[Tinkerbell]

Aww... sounds like you have a hardware issue going on there. You could flash a shipped sprint rom to confirm, but I think you are going to have to get that device fixed, or look for a replacement. I am sure that is not what you wanted to hear. Let us know what you find out there.

Yep, it's not a ROM issue. Like Tinkerbell said it's got to be a hardware issue. I'd flash to stock, again like Tinkerbell said, just to make sure. Besides, if you're going to take it in, you'll need to flash it back to stock anyway.

Make sure there is not a clear screen protector stuck on the display too. I remember a "few" posts back about that causing issues with another person's phone. As soon as they peeled it off everything worked fine.

Also, have you tried doing a task29 and then re-installing Sharkie's ROM?
