New Rom Issues

Hi,
I'm having a few issues regarding the new rom..

Scrolling contacts still laggy?
When scrolling from a different screen back to the weather, it used to animate the picture each time but now it doesn't? (even after checking the setting for animations).
Camera, can no longer zoom with the trackball?

Most of all it's the animations that gets me, when scrolling from one screen to the weather it used to animate each time, or scrolling from one screen to the clock, it used to flip to the correct time now it just appears.

Definately have the "Show screen transition animations" box ticked.
 
Just in case you haven't found it, you now zoom by dragging the left hand side of the screen vertically (think I prefer the trackball but nevermind)
I hadn't found it. Is a bit fumbly! Also noted thought that if you press and hold the screen, it focusses on the point that your presses and automagically takes a photo. This is less fumbly that the trackball :)

You win some, you lose some :p

Well, I only got mine today (yayyy) but the flip-clock was annoying me already, can't wait to get rid of it!

I guess that's personal preference, would have been nice to have an option for it rather than completely disabling it, though. As for the camera, I can't comment (since I haven't updated the ROM yet) - point and focus sounds like it would be preferable, though, IMO.

I don't really miss the flip clock widget animation, as I didn't really like it always flipping.

However, regarding the contact list scrolling, I have found that it's smooth unless you have contact photos for some of your contacts. If you have the photos, it does interrupt the smooth part of the scrolling.

Moving from home screen to home screen is 10x better, though.

Hi I just thought I'd check if I was wrong but on mine the clock will jump to 12 then smooth spin to the correct time.
I don't have a problem with it just wonder why that wasn't fixed with the flip clock

If I set mine to the analogue clock, they still have to jump to the same time, but unlike before it's not a smooth spin, its just an instant jump, with a delay to it.

I think I find that even more annoying than before! I normally use the flip clock anyway though, so I guess it doesn't matter.
