If you have CHT and the editor Yes, just use the toggle switch, it's under Toggle switch's when you click on a empty quick link.

As for the rest of your Q's, I can't answer as I only put it on the phone to get the radio updated and then I went right back to MaxSense.

That part I knew, I was more wondering on the cab part if something with the new ROM renders them moot, like they are no longer necessary because of changes they made within the ROM.

Also one other question for everyone, will old cabs, say those that I had used on 6.1 still work for 6.5 or do you need a version that's compatible with 6.5? Thanks again.

Thanks!

Edit: Can somebody please tell me how to re-enable ClearType in landscape mode? Thanks!

Does the phone need to be HSPL Unlocked to install the fixed version? Looks like most stuff can be fixed with some cabs but the Sleep Of Death fix that is built in is really invaluable.

Yes I'm getting the same. Really a problem for me as it prevents watchflag from reading the messages. Anyone have any ideas of how to fix this?

1. I had downloaded the no push internet cab for it, do I need to download it again or is there something with this ROM where you don't need it anymore?

2. Same question, but this time for the cab that fully closes Opera and doesn't leave it secretly running in the background. Do I need that again?

3. Do I need to reinstall the 3.5 .net framework?

4. I was hesitant to switch to the last ROM that VZ released because I had read that it was really running down people's batteries compared with the original ROM that came on the phone, is that still the case with this ROM, or is battery life OK?

5. How is the memory usage after installing the ROM? With the no push internet and the close Opera cabs I usually am in the neighborhood of 53% right after a soft reset and then after some use get up in the 63% area. Is it improved with this ROM?

Well I think those are all my questions for now. I'm sure I'll come up with more at some point, but thanks for helping me out with these. I'm sure they're layups for most of you. Thanks again!

1+2. No push internet cab and opera close cab should have done the same thing and shouldn't be needed in 6.5. (I don't think they carried this over).
3. Net 3.5 should already be installed as part of 6.5

Most of the cabs should work, but it will be trial and error. Best thing to do is to install a cab, soft reset and run the program to check out. If the phone does anything funny, then uninstall.
