Current best option until 2008 ROM?

[Alpine-]

Well, I currently have the 2.09 installed. Receivers report poor call quality when I am using my BT headset (Moto HS850). I use BT quite often. The alarm bug is pretty lame also. This is something I used often on my previous phone. Otherwise, I don't have many issues.

I got scared away from trying 2.16 because of all the reports so I decided to wait it out. However, I dont know if I can wait until Jan-Feb of 2008. I see that some people have no issues at all with 2.16. Does the lock up on roam switching and BT drop not occur for some people? I dont know who to believe. I guess I should just try it and see.

What is the CURRENT BEST OPTION?

1. stick with 2.09

2. 2.16 (if it works ok for you)

3. 2.16 + older radio 1.40

4. Most stable, least buggy Custom ROM thats out (which is?)

If 2.16 is working perfectly for you and you have tested the steps to reproduce the bugs with no ill effects please share your configuration.

- Did you let the custom Sprint stuff install?
- Is it a default stock reinstall?
- Did you restore (possibly introducing conflicting registry tweaks) or is it clean?

I suspect some ppl restored bringing reg. hacks which them with can cause issues. I plan to try a 2.16 clean install (with sprint extras) this weekend or soon after. No restore with reg hacks or anything like that. Just my Contacts. I will report back to this thread. It would be nice to have one thread relating specifically to known configurations that people are reporting good results from and any observations or tips from people who seem to have the 2.16 rom running well.
