3.35 enables GPS. Even if you don't use it, nice to know it's there. Also, 5060 puts 5048/5049 to shame.

3.16 was the leaked ROM which also enables GPS and some say Rev A, however AFTER upgrading my radio from the 3.27 to 3.35 the time GPS took to lock on decreased, also able to acquire GPS indoors vs w/ 3.16 i HAD to go outside to get a lock.

In regards to my current ROM, using a custom made w/ no2chem's 5060 (prior to the bT beam fix) so i will prolly reflash again soon... then again, if i wait a week, no2 might put something even better out... lol... really though it's all about experimenting and finding out what works for you!!!

I'm using vetvito's wm6.1 lean rom with radio 3.35.
Quick and clean with no caffeine.
It is plain- but that's what I like.

I am also using vetvito's clean 6.1 rom with the 3.35 radio. Since it is clean, I can install only what I want on it and then backup, so after consequent flashes later I can be back up and running in no time.

Runs solid too, with 22-24MB memory free when first installed and booted.

IMO it all depends on what works for you.
I started off with DCD 3.0.1 . loved it except for some odd things (couldnt get MMS to work properly (VZW)).. but everything else was perfect.
flashed over to No2Chem 5054.. MMS worked, but couldn't beam..
went back and forth between the 2 for a couple of days.. you basically try them out and see what you like/don't like.... then chose the lesser of 2 evils..

personally, now that i am able to finally BT Receieve BEAMS on my no2Chem rom, it's the perfect setup. and i'm not touching a THING...

it all boils down to personal preference. just try some out, and fly from there.

Had been usig DCDs ROM but went and tried the PPCkitchen and seems to run much faster and havent had to do any soft-resets in days. With DCDs rom would have to every once and a while. Then again like most people here, gimme a few days and ill have a different opinion and a different ROM on my phone!
