Welcome to the Clean and Simple Sprint Apache ROM, now based on the released Unified Kitchen! This should be the lightest and quickest AKU 3.5 ROM available for Sprint PPC-6700s.

DO NOT INSTALL THIS IF SPRINT IS NOT YOUR CARRIER. Seriously. I'll post the generic version later, but since I'm using EVDO (rev 0, alas) as my PC internet connection uploading these installers takes forever.

What's missing:

Transcriber
Stupid T9 input panel
ClearStorage
Some unnecessary graphics
Cyberon Voice Dial
WModem (Internet Sharing is included and replaces WModem)
A few other minor deletions, think of this ROM as "finely sculpted" ;^)

What's added:

WM6 Crossbow themes
OSX Graphite keyboard skin, which goes nicely with the WM6 stuff
Calibri and Cambria fonts from Office 2007
Midlet Manager, a Java virtual machine (for running things like the mobile Gmail applet)
Sprint bootscreen
Sprint phone customizations (no ExtROM needed, do with it what you will)
Some registry tweakage ("She'll make point five past lightspeed. She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself.")

As always, installation is pretty simple. Just plug in your device USB and run the installer. Follow the directions.

Disclaimer: No official support for this, kids, but really, it's just about impossible to irreversibly brick these phones. Just follow the directions and you'll be fine.

Thanks Jeff! I've been checking back now and then to see if you've had a chance to work on this and I see you JUST posted this like a minute ago. I really liked your previous one and can't wait to try the new "Clean and Simple".

Fantastic!

Thank, Jeff!

Sounds great. (Although I am not looking forward to reinstalling all my programs. I sure wish SPB or Sprite Backups would work.)

Before installing any programs how much free program and storage memory is there?

[Jeff Kirvin]

You should have about 35MB free to install stuff, plus your whole 10MB extended ROM if you unlock it.

Thanks Jeff, been waiting for this. Didn't want to go with the others as they have too much junk software installed.

Seems to working great. Haven't tested everything yet, but it looks good. Does seem faster than the last release.
