Bugs
I am not aware of any bugs at the moment. Please report any you may find!
Compatibility (TMO users read this!)
Whether you are using the T-Mobile or international version, this ROM should work universally across all Sensations. The new 2.3.4 radios are identical between TMO US and EU versions, along with the RIL files.
T-Mobile users may want WiFi calling and it is available through Bloater or an addon flashable. That's all you need. The phone works flawlessly.
RAM
I've seen lots of users complain about how little RAM some ROMs have. RAM does not mean speed. It does not determine how fast a ROM is. It simply means how many apps you can have open at once without Android having to close another one. Have you ever filled up the amount of RAM your device allows?
Android is built to use RAM efficiently. Let it handle it. Don't worry about RAM. This ROM has about 190mb free running the Sense launcher out of the box. The more apps you have installed the less that number becomes over time. Don't pay so much attention to it and just enjoy your phone.

Install Instructions
Make a nandroid backup. Losing 10 minutes of your life is easier to cope with than losing a phone
OPTIONAL: wipe/factory reset. I highly recommend doing this when coming from a different ROM, that said it's your choice. Please don't report bugs if you have not wiped.
how exactly did you go about implementing the hw accel? Via build.prop, or was it more complicated?

For those that wish, this is a flashable update to install and enable Sony Bravia Image engine. It has some MINOR improvements when displaying pictures and video via sharpening, smoothing, and some other small image enhancers (NO screenshot cant capture the effect, its effects the display).
AGAIN: All very minor, but if you wish.....have found no side effects.
Tested all of them to make sure they flashed, no error
