Hi

I have been running the AKU 3.3 ROM for about 2 weeks now with the 1.27 RadioRom.
Previously I was running the HTC 1.35 from South Africa.

Well, since I've suffered heaps more occasional annoyances than with 1.35.
Things like: backlight that stops working and you need to reset. Bluetooth turning off.

And the device is so much more sluggish. Everything feels slower.

In comparison, with the 1.35 I never experienced a crash, device was incredibly responsive and my battery consumption was much better.

The only noticeable difference with AKU 2 and AKU 3 is the Internet Sharing application (at least that's the only one I've been able to notice). Which means that I don't need special driver to use my iMate JasJam has a USB modem.

Anything else work just the same. So what was the point or advantage of AKU 3.3 over AKU 2.x ???

Thanks
Jean-Yves

I have been running the AKU 3.3 for about 10 days and after a 5-10 hangs up which follows by soft reset a day and a lots of other issues like slower response, hangs up when received a call I have put on the SA 1.35 ROM and this problems disappear....I was running the Cingular AKU 3.3 with radio 1.27...now I’m running SA 1.35 with Radio 1.27...the only problem I have noticed after downgrading is that after switching from Flight mode to Radio ON I’m unable to sent messages...I’m getting an error saying to check SMS center number etc...but after a few retries I’m able to send SMS again...I think it is related to the Radio ROM...the battery drain looks like the same on both ROMs…that’s my opinion on the AKU 3.3…so will wait for a more stable version to come out…

I have been using this 2.05ROM for two weeks without any major issues compared to SA 1.35 ROM.

Only differences I've noticed so far:

- When bluetooth hf is connected, the backlight of the phone
cycles every few minutes = it's off and then goes on for 2 mins (this time has been set from the backlight timer)

- Resco explorer is very very slow with this new rom

- Ugly blue color theme on the Comm manager :)

I have been running the swedish AKU 3.3 testrom since it came out and i have'nt noticed any of the problems you mention.. Resco explorer is even faster than ever.

Will be cool to try the Wm6 rom soon :)

I've been running the AKU ROMS (first Swedish then the Egnlish HTC with radio 1.34) and I only can say: perfect! Much more stabile, faster, less hangs (TomTom), no more call drops. I'll never go back!

@nilly: "Will be cool to try the Wm6 rom soon"Did I miss something here? I thought there would never be a WM6 for Hermes!?

Look at the XDA-Live sticky in this forum :)

Sleuth also announced that a variety of US carriers were planning on officially bringing WM6 to existing devices.
