anybody running the latest build of of 6.5? what do you think of it?

It is far superior in use, and in looks than the original samsung OS. so take the plunge you have nothing to loose. and it take 2-3 min to update your phone. you cant beat that.

Im using Yardi4life's rom, and i love it becasuse its very stock looking, and doesnt have much customization, so its open to your own customization. it also the quickest ones i have used.

i like it but it still has some formalitys that i would like changed... im hoping the chang the way messaging looks... ive always thought it was a huge eye sure

And what is it with the scrolling in Messaging? Is it just me or does it always hesitate before scrolling down a page through a message when you tap on the scroll bar? If you grab and drag the bar it is more responsive (but less accurate).

there is deff still work to be done. but i can almost bet that these roms will still run better than the first official one that we see here in the US. my battery life is so much better with the new roms than the stock cf03. and of course i dont have to wade thru many buttons to get to one app. i use my phone religiously when im sleeping, driving, screwing you name it. so i like the on or two buttons then im there its great for me.

just my 4 cents

....did he say "Screwing"?

Anyway, will a 6.5 rom still run Mobile Shell 3, S2U2, and all the other fun stuff?

Hmmmmm. I'm VERY happy with everything on my Omnia right now....but it's tempting to try a 6.5 rom. I just hate the HOURS it takes me to get everything back the way I like it.
