Also, I'll be releasing a 2.5 manila rom for it very soon.

I use the Vcast-TV my self but the other junk can go.

As far as the memory leaks its not per se a vzw or imagio issue its a microsoft issue with the gwes.exe in the older 6.5 builds which will be lessened further with the newer sys's we can use in cooked roms.

I used your kitchen add-ins back in the Vogue days, and loved how it was really easy to move up to new revs as they came out. You did an amazing job, so the next iteration has to be equally as good.

I am looking for a kitchen that I can add my own things to. So basically give me a SYS and let me have at it.

So, as we're getting close to being able to do this, anyone have a good recommendation of a way to back up email, calendar, and contacts settings? They're all on Google's end for me, so I don't need to back up the data itself, but if I'm going to be switching roms and playing with things, I would like to not have to re-enter that stuff in all the time.

There is an option on your phone called Microsoft my phone and it will sync all of you contacts, email, Calender, text on there server all you gotta do is run that program when you put the new rom on and bingo.

I personally don't use the VCast TV, and I know there are multiple people that are in the same boat as me, simply because we dont want to pay the extra money for it. So completely Verizon-software-less version would also be appreciated!

sashimi works great for this.

what u mean by kitchen?

[lafester]

a kitchen is what is used to 'cook' your roms.
they can be fairly technical to build your own although after you do it once or twice it shouldn't be too hard.

usually a couple chefs will release pre-built kitchens where you can select what kinds of programs you would like cooked into your rom a kind of build it yourself. the chef does the hard part and sets up the kitchen for you.

check out the tp2 upgrades forum and look for kitchen releases to get an idea of what the options are.

You've mentioned sashimi a number of times and I'm always intrigued, mostly because I LOVE sashimi. I gather it's an application though. Do you mind posting a link where we can learn more?
