nothing hangs or stalls so its really smooth and extremely fast.

Which version are you using of his?

i am using silence 6.1 rv 3.3

i am pretty sure that infinity has a bug in it, it doesn't represent vibrate as vibrate in the icon, it's being worked on. Also sometimes i get the feeling the sound is set right, but i have a feeling it's more the combination of the rom and infinity. So i am going to flash back to SR9 v1

i don't know what to tell you piniatta... what rom are you using? As far as i've seen we can't use standard home items in home2 which is a shame, i wish i could run spb suite in it for the call firewall...

maybe it's someting else you have running that's conflicting with something or taking up cpu time? maybe gps, weather or something else in the background?

the only thing i've seen that causes a delay is the wait to start home2 on boot which is like 0-15 seconds i think?

Standard ROM, no background tasks that I've initiated...I guess it's just not for my machine, a bit strange given everyone else seems to be fine with it. Pity, I really liked it.

the newness factor rubs away pretty quickly...i was there at the very first stages all the way til now with pointui...its not bad...not bad at all, but i think touchflo is more intuitive. i use psyki's roms and they by far are the cream of the crop when it comes to custom roms.

Until you discover Merdin's awesome 6.5.......

I agree that after the novelty of PointUI wears off, Rhodium really kicks its butt (I felt the same way about MS 3.0 for a while)

This is so strange. I have stock ROM and PointUI flies. No problems whatsoever. I will never use TF3D again.

After using PointUI Pro for two weeks, I ended up going back to Merdin's awesome custom Rhodium TF3D2. I find that is every bit as fluid & fast as PointUI & has features I like that are not available in PUI (or the PUI version is not as sophisticated as Rhodium)

I will leave PointUI installed as it is always another option when I get bored (which happens quite a bit), but I think it is still pretty raw compared to a highly customized Rhodium setup.

MyStatus Collapsable is freakin great guys. Clock, Weather, and Appointments in one app. I still use a seperate weather for 5 day. MyStatus only gives you current temp, today/tomorrow hi/low temps.

you can very easily get away with just this one app.

A must have...check it out.

yeah i'm still on pointui, it works great! I tried out sileys latest tf3d rom and although very smooth and highly customizable (you can add/remove tabs easily) it still isn't what i'd like it to be.

Not knocking it because it's not siley's fault, but if you try to customize tf3d it crashes because it's all patched up. So those who do want to customize can't.
