Clean and simple AKU 3.5 for the Sprint Apache

Jeff-

Since your rom is based upon the kitchen we built through the uniformed rom project, please include Helmi's name in the beginning of the tilte of the file and thread. Helmi made an issue of this earlier. It was his hard work that buillt the bulk of the kitchen, so it is the least we could do. A suggested title would be:

HelmiKitchen3.5Krivincustomr1 or something to that effect.

Thanks for your understanding.

I guess the five or so times Jeff has mentioned that so far in this thread aren't enough. I understand wanting to get credit for something one has done, but IMO demanding that Helmi's name be included in thread and file titles is ridiculous. The majority of the people on this site know that Helmi got 3.5 to work in the first place. Furthermore, that request is one that should be made by Helmi himself, via PM. A third party posting it publicly is tactless and if anything only serves to make Helmi look bad by association.

Has anyone else had an issue with MSVC not talking back on this ROM?
It takes commands fine but won't read confirmations, etc.
Everything seems to work but the voice reading back. Does not work w/ or without BT.

check and make sure that the options "confirm when calling by name", "confirm when dialing by number", "announce incoming calls" are all checked in start, settings, voice command, phone, options

That should be the problem.

This is great! The speed and the graphics alone make it worth the upgrade from 3.3...

I flashed to this ROM but I miss the alarm sounds from the 3.3 ROM.. anyway to get that without having to flash back to 3.3 and copy them?

Thanks!

You're missing the Sprint customizations in ROM, rather than installing them from the extended partition, and a Sprint bootscreen.

Thanks for the suggestions naigboy, but I had forgot to put in my original post that I had already done that.

I assume that you are not having any issues with MSVC 1.6 and this ROM. It worked nicely under Hemi's 3.3.
So far this is the only issue I've come across with this ROM. I'm going to uninstall MSVC and reinstall it to see if it might fix the issue.

**EDIT**

Sorry to have even brought this up.
I completely removed the application from both the desktop machine and the mobile device. Then I reinstalled it and it worked. So just reinstalling from the desktop after update might not work for everyone.

I got this installed -- looks real nice. Two problems -- it insisted on renaming my SD card from Storage Card to Storage Card2 which messed up a bunch of shortcuts -- I had to manually fix them. At least that was fixed.

Bigger problem is that I can't get BadSector's IDTransfer to work -- does anyone have it working? MSCV is working fine, just not IDTransfer. Any thoughts. Thanks.

I finally got some free time to flash this. I've been running the original 3.3 since it came out, waiting for a decent custom 3.5, and I must say this is exactly what I have been waiting for. It is a great balance between vanilla and swiss-army-knife. Having the Sprint customizations built in is an added bonus.

The sounds are great. I no longer find myself turning the sound off during use, which I have always done since the stock sounds are loud and obnoxious.

I haven't had any problems whatsoever. I agree that this is the fastest ROM I have ever flashed.

I believe that the Storage Card2 problem is due to unlocking the extended ROM. I haven't unlocked it personally since it's only 20MB compared to my 2GB memory card.
