Root Nils Business sense Version Differences

Hello all, I just recently rooted my Incredible, and am still working to find just the right ROM. I installed Nils Business Gingersense with Sense 2.1/3.0 not realizing that a 3.0 and 3.5 versions was out. I cannot find a definitive list of differences between the three versions. The first doesn't seem to be full 3.0, just 2.1 with some elements of 3.0.

Is it worth my time to switch to another version, or are there not any major changes? If I should, which version is better in terms of stability as well as battery life? Also, based on his instructions, I cannot do an upgrade to my current version, correct?

Also, one other question in terms of ROMing, when I installed this version I backed up my apps using Titanium. As I reinstalled, I had to manually allow it to install each app. Is there a way to automate this?

Thanks,
Brennan
 
I've run both, currently on 3.5. They are by no means slow. Actually, quite fast. However battery life is an issue. I have to charge halfway thru my day with moderate use. I found that 3.0 is more stable than 3.5, ill probably be switching back. I get some reboots with 3.5, and had no problems with 3.0
 
I upgraded last evening to Nils Gingersense 3.5. For anyone else that may be wondering, I have found a number of differences from the 2.1/3.0 version. There seems to be the new mail app, messaging app and a number of other GUI enhancements. After running it for a day, I prefer it to the older version. My battery life seems about the same as stock and the 2.1/3.0 version. I have noticed some lags in the UI when opening different menus and apps, but nothing too horrific. I will post back if I find any other major differences.

Yeah, the differences are exactly what the numbers hint at. 2.1 is HTC sense 2.1, 3.0 has HTC sense 3.0, 3.5 has HTC sense 3.5 all have different features. The higher versions of sense don't run that well on the incredible.
 
One other problem I have noticed, is that periodically (it mostly seems when I exit an HTC app) I go to a black screen with HTC in the center, and then it goes to my wallpaper with "Loading". Does anyone know what causes this, or if it is a known issue. As it came up later, I was wondering if it could happen when the phone runs out of ram. Any ideas?

Are these the reboots you were mentioning random155?

Thanks,
Brennan
