So reboot did nothing.... When placing icons on desktop it is off by one spot, freezes and has to load sometimes and a few other weird glitches, my camera is really messed up and sometimes wont load. just did a fix apks so hopefully that will help but I really have no idea

Damn camera still crashing I will have to try re-rooting or unrooting

Cant wait to see how that works out! What did you change in your rom? WiFi tether?!

if you're rooted you will never get an official update from sprint until you unroot your phone.

I was"rooted" running the rooted stock from from flipz and got the update, accepted and still was able to boot into recovery and access the flash menu so I think im still "rooted"

But none of the root apps like wifi tether worked for me either
