Always install ROM first (KAIS_ROM__eOS_4_888_FiRe_pp6__NoRadio).

ROM Updater and Extended Pack's apps can be installed in any order and at any time (just think - you have to have ROM installed first before you can update it, or add other apps to it, right? ;) )

Apologies for 2mths late reply, but I don't log-in here too often (that's why its better to ask in the forum instead of sending PMs).

BTW- "emo ROM"? lol :D

There is "half-measure" patch for Clear Type in Landscape mode in the extended pack (it is older version of a DLL responsible for it). Either install it if you must have CT and using landscape mode often, or turn off Clear Type in settings.

BTW:

Some apps actually do turn ON clear type by default (even when it is OFF in the settings) and in such case you must use the FiX cab, there is no other way.

IIRC Microsoft Reader (great app I used to use for reading e-books) also had similar problem in Landscape mode, the book's text itself was fine, but the menu/navigation disappeared when in landscape. That's the newer direct draw DLL problem introduced in WM6.1 (IIRC?) which can be fully remedied only by installing mentioned FiX with older DLL because as I said some apps (like MS Reader) will still use Clear Type "internally" even if you disabled it in system settings...

As for Italian localization - I have no idea if anyone have ever made a .cab for Italian customization. There were some people reporting using this ROM in various other languages, am not sure was Italian one of them though. You can go thru this entire thread to find it out, perhaps you can contact them too to get help if possible.

First - there is no single "ext pack" installation, so please specify which option you've used? Probably Manila, as I remember it is a hog.

Well, I have never used Manila or other "cool looking system hogs" exactly for that reason...

Second - the Ext.Pack is there for you to pick'n'choose and make your own customized UC setup with apps YOU WANT. Don't just install everything guys (as I'm pretty sure in both cases you have did so). The point of this "bare" ROM was to get rid of bloat, and installing everything (or what you don't use/need) is like installing a bloated ROM, kinda pointless IMO.

I always suggest to install just the plain ROM. Then add manually only the apps you actually use. If you don't use Manila, even if you will install a lot of other apps, it will still work nice and snappy.

Thx, glad you like it :)

GPRS Monitor is what I've been using myself with this ROM when I had TyTN II, so it's not like it doesn't work ;) But I remember there were some problems akin to what you've described with some other monitor versions (as it happens with many other apps actually), so please use only the version that come with it in extended pack. Either I hacked or changed something there, or it was just the version that worked with this WinMo version, but it works (it's been looooong time since I've used WinMo, and even longer since the time when I made this ROM, so forgive me if I don't remember details anymore).

/edit

if it is not included in the ext.pack, you can find it in my shared files under "HTC_GPRS_Monitor_...version...." cab name.

GPS reliability (as well as phone's radios) is always the radio firmware. If it doesn't work well, try different one. When I briefly lived in another country I went thru about 7-10 different radios until I found one that worked well with the local provider, with GPS and with this ROM. There is no easy way to help with this, and my advice is not to listen to anyone telling you to "use *this* or *that* Radio version" because there are too many factors that affect it. Trial and error is the only way to find best radio for yourself (unless someone else live in your area, uses same provider, and same ROM - only then you could be sure that his/her Radio version will work for you too).
