They are all good and at the same time they are all different. My suggestion is that you spend some time reading. I'm aware that their are alot of pages to read but I think in the end it is worth it and besides you will learn tons.

The basic description of every single ROM are put are the first post of the threads which describes the ROM... there are no ROMs that is one-size-fits-all... it's up to you to choose which is best for you..
Which ROM
I can honestly recomend Faria's lates ROM 3.2 RC1. It is the one I'm using now.

That ROM is great but it is not available anymore due to people not being able to read clear, comprehensive instructions and going on to trash the thread asking generic ROM upgrading questions and pissing off the author. My recomendation until RC2 of the Faria ROM would be one of Molskis ROMs. Before you think about upgrading ROMs.
Identify if yours is a G3 or G4 wizard
Is your wizard CID unlocked
Have you read and reread all the information, instructions given by the ROM author
Read and reread the threads pertaining to your chosen ROM.
If you do this you will have minimal if any problems. 99% of all problems upgrading are due to people NOT following the instructions correctly.
I don't recommend faria's 3.2 rom if you have linux or a mac and do any tethering to a laptop via usb or bluetooth. DUN connections are no longer available in AKU 3.2..they use bluetooth PAN and so far I've been unable to get a viable connection going...if you are feeling brave linux does have a bluetooth pan daemon called "pand" you can read up on.

i honestly think you should read and reread since this came by a lot of times now. use the search option.
or ask faria himself

Hi,
I would like to upgrade the rom on my Qtek 9100 as getting a hermes seems like a waste of time(not enough new developments) Can anyone reccommend a good rom and provide a link to it? - I cant find farias rom anywhere. I have the earliest revision of radio and os rom avail as I got my 9100 last December.
Please help as I think upgrading ROM would be much preferable to upgrading phone.
P.s do the new roms fix the screen calibration and alarm wakeup problems
Many Thanks,
Darko2006

It is highly unlikely that you will find Farias ROM as he has removed it from the general population. You need to read for about a week or two and after that you may be ready to upgrade your phone. I don't know if the new ROMs fix the problems you are talking about because I never had those problems to begin with.
Good Luck,

Do you have the info on what was in Farias ROM?
I don't want the ROM, but I'd like to see what he was doing. It's a shame that someone had to be an arse and ruin for other people, but then again, it's as a shame that people let people get to them over the interweb.

The best way to find out what his ROM had in it is to go to the first post in his thread and find the link that will show you his first post in the very first thread about this whole thing. He talks in detail about what the ROM contains.

It seems screen calibration is a hardware problem...
I had got this, was forced to visit service center (to replace the whole display). New screen is fine

crap, looks like getting a hemes would be the way to go then.
Is it much better than the wizard? - the only thing I can see different is 3G which I dont really need anyway(I dont watch corporate media or TV)

You might want to take a look at what Molski has to offer. He has a fairly clean ROM that is quite stable.

Dang you are right what a bummer.
hi, im new on here and new to upgrading these phones i have a Cingular 8125. so far ive upgraded to the newest cingular rom (2.25.11.1 WWE) I would like to upgrade to one of the newer 3.x roms but still keep it stable and be able to use most programs. i also need to SIM and CID unlock my phone still so any help on that process would be appreciated too. ive looked on here quite a bit and it seems like there are a lot of conflicting issues about SIM AND CID unlcking phones that have IPL/SPL 2.xx (i have 2.25 for both) again...any help on any of the subjects is greatly apprciated!! Thanks in advance,
Corey
::edit:: also ive read about haveing to install cingular settings to get the MMS/SMS to work correctly again. is that for all ROM upgrades other than shipped ROMs? and if it is needed, where can i find it?
sorry for all the questions, im just trying to do this right as a noobie ;-)
wow...
wow.... 122 veiws so far and not single comment :-/ not even to flame the noobie for not noticing the CID/SIM unlock instructions untill immediatly after he posted the thread. ohwell, i will persevere
ive tried them all, but the one that's the most stable so far is Molski's 1st Edition 3.0.0.0 AKU3.2 Rom, in fact its lasted the longest of all the roms I've installed so far. I hope that helps

People are being nice!
As a noob....instead of asking.....read! If you READ through the threads, you'll notice different people have different experiences with the same ROM. What's stable for me may not be stable for you.
All the roms you may be interested in are all clean roms which means you have to install your carrier settings......do you know what they are? Start with this and until then.....stay with your factory rom............
thanks guys. the CIS/SIM unlock was an oversight on my part, but i figured i would ask since no matter waht ROM it is it seems that a few people have certain issues with it and i was hopeing to kind of get a feeling for which one most of the people are happiest with. i have a .CAB with the carrier settings in it. another option that im thinking about is just waiting untill crossbow is out and seeing if cingular puts it on the 8125 so that i can get it as a OEM rom. I am most likely not going to be doing all the things that you guys are with the wizards, but i am interested in keeping it updated with the best ROM and radio ROM and being able to personalize it. i hate haveing the same thing as everyone else...
::EDIT:: and i've been reading for the last 5 days lol. TMI to digest all at once on here
I agree with Dr P. This is the longest I have stayed with a ROM The Molski 3.0.0.0 very stable.

Okay - now I'll ask you a ? - How do you have a cab of your carrier settings. I would love that.
Concur Molski 3.0 but replace the radio to 2.19 rom to resolve the missed call/frozen buttons issues. Then it's near perfect but for a few apps that need to be resolved by their developers

For Cingular download the P_Conn_CWS_APR12_Wizard and rename to zip to cab.
<hint> Keep this on your SC !
thanks for the opinions guys, and thanks for posting that for me doc, my computer has been down for a few days and i couldnt get the file off to send him. im just trying to decide now if i want to use that rom or wait untill the WM6 WWE rom is available..seems like it should be pretty soon.

20757.1.4.0
Just a question: why don't you just put all roms in one topic instead of making new topics for different languages? It makes it easier for us to keep following the topics posted.
1. This is the ROM that I have running, if something goes wrong with my phone (software wise and hard reset doesn't work) would I be able to fix it using this ROM without having to use HSPL etc?
2. Can I upgrade to another shipped ROM without HSPL, ie 1.19xxxx?
Many thanks.

is it possible to find the rom that you have in your HD?
i can't find it anywhere....
Dimitris
thanks...........................
This post is very useful.Thank you very much for this link.But I think moderators should collect these custom ROMs and put them together,finally.
Every single ROM has its own thread.I think this is complicated,both for users who want to download and for users who want to upload.Also it is very confusing,to search the entire forum just to find a specific ROM.
Anyway,thanks a lot dear friend.
Best regards
Alexander.

Gday,
i have flashed my HD with this rom, but I think it is labelled wrong.
It seems this ROM is UK Orange Rom as several times, the default website goes to HTC UK and several times I have had data errors stating this data connection can only work on Orange.
Are there the standard HTC roms around (which I thought this was).
Any other users seen this?

You can't go wrong flashing one of the newer 1.56-based roms out now. If you read the guide in my signature you can't go wrong
As cRaCKwHoRe said you can't go wrong with one of the newer 1.56 roms based on either WM6.1 or WM6.5
As for which is better, your opening a whole can of worms there mate. This has been asked before and closed done just as often by Mod's
There is no best rom, its user dependant on what you as the user is looking for as they're lite roms, heavy roms, roms built for speed etc etc etc
Best advice I can offer is to go into each rom thread, read up on each and if you like the look of one of them, try it out. If your not happy, try another.
I've flashed countless rom's (60+) and I'm still not 100% happy.
Each rom thread should provide installation guides or direct you to them, though you couldn't go wrong with cRaCKwHoRe's
I'm personally testing Duttys V3.0 which isn't released yet, but should be in the next few days. Could be worth waiting for, though I'd maybe read up on others and try flashing to get accustomed to the process
Happy searching and I hope you find the right rom for you!!
anybody can recommend me a ROM that you feel is the best for you ?
sorry new to blackstone.
btw is there any HD2 clone ROM for blackstone ?
if dont , anyone can recommend the best touchflo 3D 2.5 ?
thanks .
You can make you own decision, the benchmarks are here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=516190&page=72

It often is the latest stable software in the ROMs. And another thing.. It's better if you try some roms out. Its not so popular around here to ask about a god rom. It's a matter of taste and so on. Not so nice to other chefs if i, or any one else recommend a specific rom.
Check the thread about how to flash HSPL and just go nuts flashing and testing. Good luck!
Admin, please close.
Before anyone creates a new thread, the basic requirements for common decency would be to read the wiki, forum rules and use the 'search' function.
Now I understand that you are new, but your question(s) have been asked many times before.
FYI, a dummies guide thread exists for flashing. Also to ask an opinionated query is frowned upon in XDA as it creates endless long threads due to everyone having a different opinion. Best advice would be to read first few posts in each rom thread as this generally lists whats in each rom as well as providing a few screenshots of said rom. Then try a few roms to make your own conclusion on whats best for you
