Re: Does your TP load into TF3d or WM?

I use TouchFLO3D for now, but I definitely miss Spb Mobile Shell... but Spb's development cycle is obnoxiously slow (worse than HTC's, lol) and I've always been more inclined to stay where the development and support is most active.

You'll be happy to know it works fine on the TP, I tried it last night since missing it on my Mogul. Its less bloated then TF3D, and uses almost 10% less ram, not that its an issue any longer with the TP compared to the Mogul, but great none the less. Just thought you may want to know.

Well, RAM usage initially may be less, but let's face it... Mobile Shell is also guilty of some pretty bad memory leaking too, so that's just relative.

I miss Mobile shell for the familiarity factor, though, not for a performance reason. TF3D performs perfectly well for me, and actually performs better since I enabled a few tweaks (see my Touch Pro Cleanup link in signature for details).

I do wonder how many people that are experiencing performance issues with TF3D are due to huge numbers of songs and pictures on their phones versus a perceived performance hinderance (coming from Mogul or Apache expecting miracles on the Touch Pro) versus actual performance problem.

Every post I've seen crying about TF3D has been rather cryptic and vague about WHY they think it's slow, or has been easily corrected.

Well, i missed Mobil Shell for the ability to customize the phone more as well. I thought I would share something I noticed using it compared to TF3D, any mem leaks would be checked with the installed MemMaid app (Previously used Oxios). I do remember Pocket Plus, which is highly customizable, to suffer from severe memory leaking when I tried it in the past. As far as the TF3D issues, they may be due to the animations that occur at times. For me it works well enough once I installed TF3D tweak to cut some of the fat and reorganize the tabs along the bottom.
