You know what - I knew that was there too. And I don't have any idea why I didn't try it. Thank you. It worked great.

The previous Opera would tend to mashwordstogethersometimes and it's looking better now. If that was on purpose, I think it was a good change. The Opera font isn't quite as pleasing to my eye, but I do like notreadingwordsalljammedtogetherlikethis - lol.

Color me pleased, I thank you once again Drellisdee.

Actually its the same opera the font changes and rotation must be from the v-cast widgets which is a branded and modified opera widgets. I changed some files names in app.dat to keep it from overwriting the opera files in rom and also noticed it had font files but didn't see any registy activating them. On the thumbnails press menu then remove favorite shortut.

Hi all!

My Imagio's shipped ROM consumes so much battery that i can only use the fone for 1 day. My common use is fone (30-40mins/day), sms (10-15 sms/day), abt 1-2 hours of wifi/3G, reading stories (1h/day). Is that 1-day battery normal?
Which ROM should I upgrade to extend the battery time to 2 days or more?

Imagio battery = fail. I have enjoyed many of these roms. And no offense to any Chefs - but i have not seen extended battery life from custom roms. If anything I have seen the opposite. Just my opinion though.

BTW - I only get 1 day out of my Imagio - not even that if I actually use it.

pat1 only please dial #4357 and PM me your PRL version. Then dial ##778 and enter 000000 as the sec code. Pm me your PRI version and firmware version from that menu as well as your zip code where you use the phone the most. And yes with your stated use of 3g/wifi, calls, and using it to read which leaves the screen display/backlight light on nightly charging it would be typical of any most any smartphone.

Please I don't want everyone bombarding me with PM's so no one else.

Just out of curiosity - do you have some sort of method of determining which radio works best in which area of the country?

As far as radio no the 2.25.00WVL seems to be the best most everywhere and wanted to make sure radio & PRI were current. For PRL yes. If you haven't noticed look at the carrier description under my name.

Yes yes of course. But forgive my ignorance - what exactly does ""emp demo" mean?

"For PRL yes..." So what is the method for determining best PRL for your area?

Some areas such as where I live hybrid prls perform better than the regular ones. With hybrid prl I pull -80dbm or less evdo and and in the high -90's with regular prl. 1x is greatly improved too and signal plays a significant role in battery life.
