All seems smooth as long as HTC Home is unchecked from Today screen. I do have some need to click some newly opened screens twice before the click "takes."
My question: Can I run Spb Backup from version 3 onto a new flash of version 4? I am not clear on how much of a backup the "system" portion actually captures and saves. Also I understand and fear the concept of "brick." But having a blast with this.
Thanks again. Cooked ROMs rock!

Thanks.

It's really difficult to truly brick your phone as long as you're flashing with a rom intended for your device. In some cases if your phone gets disconnected from your PC during the flash it can happen, but I've even recovered from that.

And I thought I was the only one experiencing this bug. Does anyone have any insight as to what is causing this issue?

I haven't loaded the Dev4 bits yet - I'll get to them asap and test 'em out.

I would like to echo the kind words for Helmi and VG - you guys are the best and we are all learning tons and reaping the benefits of all your work.

Can We Turn Off Beam By Default????

Seems like devel4 has improved at least 2 issues for me. More stuff works with only 1 click and my phone sounds better. I started out with a newest stock ROM, flashed the Radio 1.41, and it sounded OK. Then after flashing Helmi WM6 Verizonguy Devel3, somewhere along the way the phone sounded tinny or buzzy. People complained. Sounds great now though, after Devel4. (I just remembered that I did not dial *22899, though. Just ran the backup.)

I think now the files that need 2 clicks are in sub-folders, and only fail after one is opened, then closed. One extra click opens them just fine.

Also, the Spb Backup for Devel3 worked fine on Devel4, only it reloaded the links for the games that are no longer there, so I had to delete them again. The whole process was very smooth and quick, and my phone was right back where I wanted it in less than 30 minutes. Very cool.

Oh. Need to add: I don't think I have had vibrate working on either of the Devel3 or Devel4 versions of WM6. Trying to get ring plus vibrate working, but nothing so far. Still liking it though.

First i would like to say thanks for all the fixes for us verizon users. I just have one quick question. Its no big deal if you done do it. Its just an idea.
Would it be possible to update the htc task manger to the latest version? in your next devel?

Loaded Dev4 last night and all seems well.Runs snappy and stable so far.Never experience a hang at the green mobile screen requiring a hard reset with Dev3. Hope I don't with dev4 as well. Great job VerizonGuy. I look forward to your kitchen.

Vibrate then ring, and vibrate and ring work fine here....devel4
