Also, please see POST 2 in this thread for an idea I have. Trial run, we'll see how it goes.

It's coming, I just noticed it last night before writing my review. It's downloaded and will possibly be on the list since it does say SPRINT ONLY.

Testing Juicy R2 right now though.

RE: post #2. I think thats a great idea. I hope it takes off. It would be great to see this type of information collected. It's one thing to go through all the ROM threads and read all the great stuff about these ROM's But if you can get more people involved in the evaluation process that would be great for the "rare" few of us that do not have the time/energy/knowledge/enough beer to actually try all the ROM's for ourselves. Good luck, I look forward to seeing this fly. =D>

Ok, here is my opinion!

Energy Leo build 21864 is a great ROM, nice to look at and fun to mess around with! I could see some improvement in the Landscape mode and keyboard issues that everyone is commenting on! But, that aside, overall, I give the ROM an 7/10!

Energy Photon build 23081 is also a very nice ROM, very smooth and stable (so far) I haven't had to do any soft resets. I really like the way he addressed the landscape issue with this ROM, it just lacks a few of the little things that were included in the Leo ROM i,e Footprints slider, Twitter slider and the new HTC messaging 2.5! Overall rating 8/10! (currently used ROM on my device)

MightyROM 6 for Touch Pro 2 is a very stable and fast ROM, its perfect for the everyday professional, no bloatware or extra fluff, straight to the point type of ROM. Definitely a ROM I would suggest to the everyday professional. Overall rating 8/10!

I just downloaded that myself.

So far, Mighty has been my favorite by far (& I've tried them all) but I'm always open to trying new things.

I think you may have different results on different carriers. Even with the carrier provisioning cabs I found Mighty a bit buggy on sprint. CFay seems to run pretty well out of the box on Sprint, although it's a very basic 6.5 ROM.

Ok, here are my findings with Juicy's R2 ROM

Very fast, very stable ROM that offers a lot of the same features and the Energy ROM build 21864. I haven't had any issues with this ROM at all e:i soft or hard resets! The only real issues I have with both the Energy ROM and Juicy's ROM is that the Footprints tab doesn't fully work and the on screen keyboard has the issue of, instead of the letter you want to input, it enters the corresponding symbol or number, this happens mainly while using the Compact Qwerty, with both T9 and Multi-Tap set as the input method! All-in-all, I give Juicy's ROM 9/10!

Oh and for those of you who want to use the TellMe application on any of these ROMs, the only ones that it works on is Mighty's ROM and Juicy's R2 ROM!

hope this helps others.

Many thanks for that link, I just spent the last half hour looking at his videos. This thread as well as the videos saved me from some unnecessary flashing/testing. I'm with Mighty's now; but may try out Juicy R2. Thanks!
