For what it's worth, I'd try to get as much as possible out of the
experimental phases before going on to phased MR.

One thing to try would be the bp3/pirate combination for
phasing/density modification. With some datasets, this works very well
(in my hands, not with all datasets).
Another (which you've probably already tried) would be to check the MAD
maps after solvent flattening, but before phase extension, as well as
comparing the MAD maps to SAS maps.
It's probably also worth checking the dispersive difference peaks, and
cross checking them with the anomalous difference peaks. You should get
the same peaks out, but it'll let you guess as the relative phasing
signal for dispersive vs anomalous (but so will comparing MAD vs SAS).

Hopefully I'm not giving you too many suggestions you've already tried.
