Wow your Point UI is running fast compared to mine. I am running the Sense theme. Seems like there is always a delay when i hit buttons.

That looks killer, but delay is no good. Hmmm.

1. Weather won't work. I've copied the 'World>Cities' file over and it doesn't give me anything to choose from the menu. Don't know what I'm doing wrong.
2. Battery icon in the digital globe?
3. Signal icon in the digital globe? Can't get it to work!

Thanks!

If it's not working for you, I suggest you re-read the install instructions carefully again. The reason is the last i knew (before any pending updates) is that it was like a 2 part install. First you install the original files, then you patch them.

Keep in mind everyone that once you have your "set up" in place. you don't have to "start over" everytime you flash your phone, you just literally copy all the files in the home2/applets directory and paste them back in after your flash (and install of pointui home2) and that's it!

give it a try as the instructions aren't always easy to get the first time around.

Each app has its advantages & disadvantages & I am having a terrible time trying to just stick with one or the other (although that's not exactly a bad problem to have)

I find speed-wise they are dead equal as merdin's setup is lightning fast so it loses nothing there to PointUI. I definitely like some of Rhodium's features a little better than PointUI, but the simplicity & speed/smooth operation of PointUI is pretty appealing also.

I used MobileShell 3.0 for a while also, but got bored with it pretty quickly. When I first installed it, I thought the spinning cube was totally awesome but I quickly realized that I never really used the cube for anything & it's one of those "cool features" you show other people but never actually use for anything.........

I agree w/most of this. Although, it might just be my particular setup w/Merdin's rom, but PointUI is a little bit faster. But I do experience a lot more freeze-ups using PointUI. Another thing, when I choose a wallpaper it's not centered ?

is the download not working for anyone else?

That's one reason I stopped using PointUI...b/c the wallpaper doesn't get centered/resized to fit like it does in Titanium or Manila.

But I still install it whenever I flash
