For those that are still having problems with the Office short cuts, NRG created and posted a Hotfix for them.

Hotfix for all of Oct 8 and Oct 9 ROMs for some of the missing shortcuts to the Office applications. http://digs.by/dqXyN4

Energy.RHODCDMA.21916.Sense2.5.Cookie.1.8.5.Sencit y.Oct.10.7z
ABOUT NEW ROMS:
1. It should be faster as Cookie 1.8.5 has been reported faster & better on battery issues. (others opinions)
*edit* lol... krazydude above post while I was typing... confirmed!
2. I'm not a theme & picture guy, pure functionality for me, so I won't say much, but I can see a bunch of questions.. so here's some additional info from _LeCiel_ @ XDA (who made these). BE AWARE OF THESE:

known issues that will be fixed in 0.5.1:
- Colon
- Stocks tab (text overlays the arrows)
- Music Tab - Play/Pause control buttons
- Music Tab not fully skinned in landscape
- Internet tab (double text)
- Error reporting icon not skinned in Settings Tab
- Purple bubble (Settings > Sound and Display) needs to be a little smaller
also in 0.5.1 will include a Call History and Communication Tab as well as the default registry settings for CHT 1.8.5 - this will "fix" the glitch on the digital clock and make .sencity look (out of the box) like in my screenshots.

GTX users:
You're using a GTX rom - that's why you have issues with text color. You should either: uninstall .sencity, copy stock manila files to \windows (with total commander or resco explorer) and install .sencity again OR just wait for a .sencity flavored rom/flash another rom and install .sencity again.

Thank you Teradog for your advise. I turned off animation! Compact Start and sense menus are just as slow.
I will eventually flash a new ROM, but right now, I kind of got used to waiting maybe 1 or 1.5 seconds for the sense screen to display (or render). Also it seems to be running all right despite the slower speed.
I am afraid overclocking will kill my battery life; or overheat it, I am in Texas, and it gets hot outside, and I am outside as much as I can, so the phone is for quite some time in a hot environment almost every day.
But overall, it works fine, and it is a phone after all. It makes and receives calls fine now (not the case on the last ROM), and that is the most important part!
One weird thing, when sense is starting, the windows menu button has some cool colours that don't look like the windows logo at all, after it finishes booting, it goes to the traditional windows white logo. Anybody knows how to keep the coloured logo?

haha... nice rhyme.. :>))
*edit* heat & OC, don't think it's an issue, many have even reported better battery with OC! Look in my HOW TO link in sig.. I use setcpuspeed 1d... steady & not jumpy.. I think it's probably the biggest & best thing to ever hit the TP2! Just do it.
Not so sure it's sense.. perhaps, 681 & the new stuff (SMLS) came out within a day... I don't remember 680 with slow issues, although we didn't even have it for 24 hours... anyone else thoughts on the Oct 7 ROM? Still running it???
Recap: OCT 7, SMLS & 680 & OCT 8, SMLS & 681
"Start Menu Layout Switch (SMLS): start(winkey), settings, start menu layout switch
Normal: 73 MB free *default with NRG's great signature startup menu
List View: 72 MB free
Panel: 97 MB free *** MY FAV BY FAR
CSM: 95 MB free (settings, startmenu layout)(Compact Start Menu... quick menu w/ mods)
Sense: 97 MB free (EITHER start(winkey), settings, other, SMLS OR slider to settings"

3 huge things happened within just a few days any could have impacted speed, but most noticed it on Oct 8 Cookie 2 681...
1. Cookie 2
2. SMLS (5 choices of start menu)
3. 681

(gotta disable Android tether & reboot into windows to try it... :>))

** The TP2 isn't a phone... no way!! It can do more than any Laptop... It truly it a pocket PC... (PPC for some of the newcomers)

Sencity rom looks sick! A few thing's I'd like to see to make it more seamless:

1. Change the stock icons to a dark tone, similar to the way that GTX has it set up.
2. A matching dark lock screen.
3. The items teradog mentioned.

I've been in love with the dark types of themes since I first put dusk on my phone, and this is even better IMHO.

I am on the cookie 2 Oct 7th ROM and when I set my phone to vibrate and ring it will only vibrate and not ring. When I set it to ring, it will ring fine.

I also notice that when I get up in the morning after it has been charging, there is an error message regarding loss of service connection, like the one you get when you start to reboot your phone.

Any ideas on how to correct these???

Thanks

Thanks Teradog, it runs a little better with overclocking. Didn't mean to offend you by saying it is just a phone, I use it for internet access too and many other things. I actually bought it to use it with excel during harvest (I hope it can handle the dust). I still need to find some printing software so I can connect it with my portable bluetooth printer and print from excel.
I will wait for the next set of ROMs and go to cookie, Dinikglass is pretty but I don't need it (my windows 7 desktop looks almost like windows 2000 to get more speed). GTX is pretty too, but some say it uses more battery because of the white backgrounds.
But 21681 dinikglass has worked well, all the office links work, i can switch menus without problems, never had to do carrier provisioning, usb and active sync work. Except for the lack of speed, it is pretty robust, except with a game called wordly, that one fails to start many times, it worked well until the sept 24 rom. After that it did not.
It freezes every once in a while (sometimes twice a day, but then runs many days without freezing), but it is to be expected, it is windows after all. Reboot and everything gets fixed
I don't know if anybody has run into the is problem, I never noticed it before. The iginition of my 2 stroke bike fools the signal sensor and the signal strength indicator jumps all over the range, I turn it off, and it settles back. My little 4 stroke "pit" bike doesn't do it, just the two smokers.

For those that are using the GTX ROM, which 6.5.x release do you guys prefer the best? Also, what pagepool are you using on the GTX? I was contemplating using 0, but I'm not sure if 8, 12 or the default might be more ideal. I was going to install the Oct. 8 21681 GTX, but would prefer a rom that didn't require Hotfixes. I previously used the July 24 23673 GTX, but Sense kept on freezing my phone up, so I've been using the Sprint Stock ROM ever since.

Another feedback on the oct8th rom:
Settings -> Application -> Managed programs doesnt work.
Not sure if it ever did.

LOL! I haven't rode a 2 stroke since my Yamaha 360 Enduro days... if you forgot to hit the compression release switch I'd end up with a sprained ankle... even hear of guys breaking them... unreal speed one wheel for many gears.. They didn't even have cell phones then!!! :>)) Too interesting.. yea, 2 smokers.. Dust, Harvest & dirt bikes... my kinda stuff.. I'll have a few hundred miles walking the fields this year.. pheasant season opens next weekend!
I use to run all over that state on business... my all time land speed record was out around Sonora.. even had an address there for a while, may even move back.

*if using startmenu replacements "panel" or "CSM" (compact/quickmenu) I'd do zero or 24/26... if not 10-16...
*if dumping arkswitch & unchecking sense here: start, settings, personal, home (depending on the startmenu..) & using MMapplauncher=110 MB free, then zero or 28/32!! (110 MB free with 22pp)
