I'll say ahead of time, sorry for the long post. :)

LOL!!!!! GTSTSTBSRE? (Ginger Tazz Sense The Soon To Be Suckiest Rom Ever)

Yes, I did it under Amon RA with 0 Swap and 0 Ext2. You're welcome!

That's great to hear! Thanks for the independent feedback re: reformatting. I've still been going cautiously. I've actually been creating a new backup through ROM Manager/CWM between every single app I install or restore. Maybe it's overkill but I wanted to be sure to know when (if) it started acting up, what the likely culprit would be. For years this was the method I used with brand new Windows installations for myself and others, too, but early corruptions of Windows installations seem to be rarer these days.

The PREVIOUS time I flashed this ROM, I did use the C2C script although I wasn't sure if it was necessary, either. This time I'm inclined to believe whoever said it looked like it was already included that they're right. I have not even overclocked yet, other than the default of 604 (?).

The engineer/tech-savvy in me sure would like to know exactly what it is about what's left behind on the SD card besides the .android-secure folder that causes problems. I'm likely to reformat between every single new ROM I try, and may consider between every new release of the same ROM, too.

I have had a total of maybe two home screen reloads, once after just a short while in ROM Manager renaming two backups I did under CWM, and another after I spent quite a while in something else, but otherwise and afterwards, no other home reloads and two is acceptable for how much I'm playing with it. I like to keep things simple and if I can use the ROM daily without HTKing the launcher, then I won't SuperCharge it.

After all, there may be *some* times when it's good to unload the home screen at least in the case of the gargantuan Sense, since a few games I tried which worked under CM7 would only get to the last point before being able to play and then go back to a previous menu, and perhaps available RAM was the issue unless even HTK wouldn't prevent releasing the launcher if it was absolutely needed.

I'm sure at some point I'll test that, too, at least if I reinstall those games and find they do now work.

So far I have installed and used just:

Titanium Backup

Astro File Manager

Quick Boot

Script Manager (just because the Market auto-reinstalled it and Quick Boot - don't know why it didn't auto-reinstall more this time, my first flash it reinstalled around 18 apps, but I'm glad it didn't in this case)

Sygic (Aura) GPS navigator. FYI, Tazz, I meant to tell you that GPS worked perfect for me yesterday, and that was under the laggier flash of b3 I had installed.

GPS Status - I never go without it on any ROM any more, and set it up to download updated data daily.

ROM Manager

Widget Locker

SCRATCH POWER CONTROL PLUS - ALREADY FOUND SOMETHING BETTER:

Widgetsoid2.x - able to activate notification power widgets without opening separate popup IF configured correctly.

Google Voice

Dropbox

Next, not sure. Perhaps a keyboard app or maybe I'll go ahead and configure FriendStream/Facebook; I haven't even done that yet.

Oh, that reminds me. Under my first flash of b3, I was able to use the HTC Hub with no trouble at all, and today I can't sign in or create a new account. Hopefully it's on HTC's end and this'll change. I never installed anything from the Hub yesterday, but I was able to browse a lot of content. I believe someone else said they had trouble with the Hub, too.

I'll keep checking back with it. I might check to see if I can manage my HTC Hub account from my PC and therefore more easily find out when it's back up if that's the problem.

Sorry for the long post. :)

Edit: Oooop....just had the third home reload after being in FriendStream for a minute or two.
