Sprint TP2 - Which ROM for simplicity, speed

[markd89]

I looked at the Evo 3D today and it's nice, but I'd like to stick with my current SERO data plan and not signup for 2 more years.

Really, the things I don't like in the TP2 are software issues more so than hardware. It seems like the OEM ROM is slow and there's more clicks than needed to navigate...

I'm hoping to get some suggestions on what ROM I should use instead. I'm not opposed to something flashy, but really my needs are simple...

1. Ability to make phone calls to a few favorite people with minimal clicks.
2. Ability to send texts to these same few people with minimal clicks.
3. Nice to have: speech to text.
4. Nice to have: faster browser.
5. Nice to have: Music Player with playlists
5. Tethering. Currently use WMWifiRouter which works OK..

Thanks!
Mark
