Can someone point me towards a vanilla wmt rom? I've seen a couple like mr. clean and faria's rom, but I wouldn't call those vanilla. Thanks

I'll second that...in fact, after some 3rd party app compatibility issues with wm6, I flashed back to my beloved SuperRom...been running it for months, have a crapload of apps installed and still have room and speeds!! It is not completely stripped, but it is comfortably vanilla--no apps no one wants or needs, and extended folders to add some items after install. And the dialpad is damned sexy, as is the today screen theme.
**I will say, that on my Tmo MDA, superrom does freeze up once or twice a week, but a soft reset cures this, and isn't so much of an issue that I want to trash it for a different rom!!**

it may be old skool, but my fave ROM is X's 2.26. I just reset it before it installs all the stuff and I put what I want on there. The only lock ups I've had are due to things like Wisbar Desktop.

my first rom flash was xelencin's 2.26. he has the unlocking tool built into the rom upgrade, so it was good to run it along with lokiwiz's unlocker. the rom is generally stable and pretty much has the basic t-mobile setup from the official t-mobile 2.26, just minus some useless add on's.

friday evening. I've obtained the necessary bits from <anonymous> and am testing some builds out now. I might even have something to upload tomorrow evening.
tick tick tock, the clock is back.
ps. This is the same OS build that was posted in the teaser thread.
OS 5.1.195 (Build 14928.2.2.0)
nice, looking forward to it!
Sweet. counting down
Once again summiter you're the bomb!

Thanks summiter
Does it have any BT stack changes? Is there anyway to post what the changes, improvements feature fixing are?
Thanks
Good luck testing!
i just hope that my wifi will work with the new rom, like it used to on the old cingular rom.

Assuming same stupid problem with the no vibe in standbay??
thank you summiter for your work
I know it's a Cingular rom, but can someone post a generic unbranded version of it? or do I need to wait for the manufacturers(Dopod, QTek, etc..) for that?
Lol... I just upgraded to your latest and greatest earlier this week. Still, looking forward to the new release. Hope it includes some nice improvements. Cheers bro!
I can't wait to see what you can do with this rom, I loved your previous customs and know good things are coming.
damn that anonymous, he's always up to no good. can't wait for this rom .
a most eagerly awaited ROM
summiter,
have you decided what customisations you will bundle in (or indeed remove)?
mick.
Oh, and BTW a big thank you to <anonymous>, whoever you are
Please a plain Vanilla Version...
I love the customizations but I think many would appreciate a plain vanilla version also.
I remove Cyberon Voice Dialer (using MS Voice Command instead)
I also don't install Smart Dialer as I prefer the ETEN Dialer.
Infact, I'm currently using NO Offical Cingular Cabs on my phone!
It would be great to have the Dot Net CF 2 included in this ROM and the NoCert fix for unsigned cabs. Maybe even adobe Acrobat Reader.
When it comes to things like "Real close on click X" there are so many good ones and we each have our preference that it just muddies the water when you include them. (I use HandySwitcher from Dinarsoft, good deal for $5).
As for things like Smartskeys and Omap Overclocker, the versions are bound to change so it would be better to leave them out as well... Until the Ext_ROM can be truely unlocked on 2.x ROMS.
Thanks for listening.

If I've already flashed my device with your 2.17 ROM, what do you think the benefits will be of switching to this new masterpiece you're working on?

in 12-15 hours from riiiight abooout now.
I meed to work out some oddities with the reported rom versions and look through the cab files that came with this thing.
as far as benefits, in its bare state it feels more responsive. and then there's the clock back on top thing which is important to some folks. more details coming soon.
thanks <anonymous> and summiter!
cant wait to try this out
Not sure if anyone is interested but I created a ROM using a bare T-Mobile 2.26 with the complete Extended ROM from the Cingular 2.25. This is for unlocked G3 type phones ONLY as it has the 2.26 IPL/SPL embedded.
This was my very first attempt at cooking a ROM and it didn't turn out bad if you need a truely Cingular looking phone. Actually I can't tell the difference except it's much faster than the stock 2.25.
This has no customizations included and was for fun only. I've been running it today with no problems. Being as that I don't need GoodLink email or other such Cingular stuff I'll be flashing tomorrow to something different. (but that's me ...)
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/Other_Unknown/Cingular_RUU_Wizard_2.26
I forgot to include the .rar extension when I UL'ed to the FTP, sorry! ( DUH! )
thank you. I've been using the 2,265 for some time now. it looks like these newer roms seem to be faster and better performance wise.
so this is a basic rom with cingular customizations? I'm deciding on either trying this out,the aku 2.3 beta by shogun or waiting for the next aku 3.2 release.
just wondering. will we see any official cingular/htc releases or have they abandoned the wizard?
If on a Cingular network I'm kinda partial to the shogunmark ROM. For a beta it's worked out pretty well and I'm going back to it today probably.
The 3.2 is a work in progress, not ready for primetime IMO.
This ROM I threw together is for those that need all the Cingular stuff that come on the stock phone. It's got the Cingular Splash Screen, complete Cingular Extended ROM and that's it. It's near impossible to tell that it's not the stock ROM unless you purposely look at the device info. I was simply addressing an extremely small (if existent at all) need for such a critter and to have a little fun.
Thanks, this is what I was looking for. I am going to load this today.
Keep up the good work. :lol:
bout time you put that out..
Wow! If only one person benefits from this ROM I'm tickled!
Good luck!

All those union breaks I guess! And it actually turned out nice, quite quick in stock mode without molski's speed and performance tweaks... actually never got around to installing any reg hacks as I was happy with it the way it performed. Back to your ROM now though as I don't need all that Cingular stuff ... with my enhancements added in of course !
Will this rom work on the qtek 1010?
I wouldn't thinks so, being that that you're referring to a Wallaby I believe.
Sorry!
Would you happen to know how to get cingular to work on my Wallaby?

Sounds like you might need to unlock it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=1190&highlight=unlock
I believe that you need to change over to the Wallaby upgrading etc. instead of looking in this Forum. From a 5 minute search there it would appear that the Wallaby working on the Cingular network would require you having 1900 MHZ coverage rather than the typical 850 MHZ which I don't believe that the Wallaby supports. I'm not a Wallaby owner however and claim no knowledge of the device nor do I really care to learn.
The subject I posted here was Cingular 2.26 ROM. It is for Wizards only. If you happened to be able to flash it to your device I'm sure it would cease to exist as a usable device. If your question is regarding the Wallaby operating on the Cingular network you're in the wrong place.
Sorry and good luck!
Thank you for the info, but I decided to sell it to someone in Europe. But thaks for the help
What is in ext rom? I dunno cingular rom...
If you dunno you dunneed!
(Trust me !)
in the beta versionn, the voice dial button locked the phone. in this one does the voice dial button really do voice dial???
This is the standard Cingular Extended ROM - no more and no less

Back to what? My psychic advisor is on vacation...
Actually if you CID unlocked you can install whatever ROM you want. Typically you have to downgrade to the 1.05 ROM to the downgrade to another ROM lower than the 2.226, say the 2.24.
But you really should get into the habit of including all information about your ROM when you ask questions here.

Define "Best". Your definition is most likely going to be different than mine. So your needs and wants will not match mine... You need to just take the time to read and look at the options. If you want a ROM that gives you new features and pretty much works right out of the box then stay away from all of the WM6 ROMs for now and go grab Faria's AKU 3.3 (its a sticky at the top). It will setup your GPRS, MMS, and everythign and you'll pretty much be ready to rock and roll when you finish the install (beyond specific apps you use, but some of those (or similar) may already be there too). Its stable, quick and slick.
But if you want Bleeding edge, don't mind doing tweaks and dealing with odd issues, then look at the WM6 ROMs. Currently Most Beautiful Edition (MBE) is the one I run and am overall happy with it (its not perfect though and I find new odd things with it periodically). The Underground edition also seems good, and a new release is supposed to be coming. Also, the Hermes XDA Live ROM is supposed to be being ported and could show up at any time (and from what I've read, that is a really nice ROM on the Hermes, so hopefully will be as good for us on the Wizard).
And with all that said, don't for get the various Molski ROMs out there too. I haven't tried one yet, but everyone that uses them raves about them...

lol sorry about that, i just switched to the htc wizzard, lol im not that of a noob!
Just wondering why you guys are not waiting until MS officially releases WM6 instead of installing this beta/pre-release? Wouldn't it be better (and cleaner) to let MS fix all the bugs and issues?
I don't know if that will happen, it depends on the carrier. They bake their own ROMs after MS does all the coding. The 8525 is out so it seems like that would get WM6 first.
I would like it to happen and look forward to it though.

I see. Just like back when WM5 came on the scene and some carriers didn't want to offer(or sell) its customers the upgrade for their WM2003 SE devices.
i just upgraded to the cingular stock 2.25.11 rom and after losing all my applications i wanted to look into what's out there for custom roms, i see all sorts of different versions (faria, crossbow, most beautiful, underground, etc) and i don't know really what to get, i'm tired of my phone being so slow, and i like to use it for the internet/messaging/emulation and music playing.
is there a standard rom that everybody kinda uses, or would anybody mind pointing me in the right direction? thanks.
Unfortunately, there is no simple answer. Almost all custom roms have some issues of one sort or another (no offense to the Chefs!). You really have to read and see what roms have what you want (or if you want a basic rom that you will then customize). If you want one that just works, then try Faria's AKU 3.3 . Molski's ROMs are supposed to be excellent, but I've never tried one myself (yet). The current "rage" is the WM6 roms. I ran on the MBE one for some time and really enjoyed it, but it took a lot of tweaking and stuff to get it to where I could live with it (ie: its not a clean an simple install). The new Faria "the real thing" is what I'm running now and I really like it. For the most part it worked out of the box (I had to add MMS setup for Cingular, but thats pretty common) then layer on the apps I use. So far so good.
I will probably take a backup of this one and try out mUn's ROM this weekend.
I'm sure that isn't quite the answer you wanted, but maybe it gives you some idea... Good luck!
thank you so very much for responding.
what does WM6 have anything that's really incredible about it that makes it worth using the 'real thing' MOD?
also, what do page polls mean? 8mb 6mb and 4mb?
would you recommend the AKU 3.3 ROM or the Moloki ROM?
thanks for your response, that mUn ROM also looks nice, keep us posted.

I've been on the mUn ROM since Saturday morning and so far no major complaints. The midlet manager doesn't work well with the Gmail app so I'm going to downgrade it, and I had an issue with my phone vibrating and not ringing yesterday but a soft reset seems to have cured that. Otherwise its very fast (even when it wasn't overclocked) and seems overall very stable. I'll probably stay on this until the Faria Vanilla real thing comes out, then may have to look at playing musical ROMs again
Other than changing the look of the ui, give me a good reason to update it.I already got rid of all the bloat and crapware.
I have now on my Tilt:
rom version 1.62.502.0
radio version 1.27.14.09
And isn't AT&T going to release a wm 6.1 update anyway? So what is the point?
cause you original rom sux. there's been posts in the past, i dont know if you can find it, but if you do........just see the benchmarks comparing a shipped rom to a cooked rom.

With that attitude there is no point. You can now leave the forums.
Flashing ROMS is about getting every drop of power and speed out of your device if you have a lackadaisical attitude then its not for you.

I apologies if my post appeared to have attitude. I just spent the past hour going through the hundreds and hundreds of posts about different roms and wanted to get someone to give me the befor and after facts.
I did see the post where the after was benchmarked against an ipaq, I believe, but i don't know how a stock one compares.
Again I don't mean to have an attitude....
All is forgiven.
I don't know if anyone has benchmarked the Stock ROM w/ Bloat. But On pure feeling I'm glad I flashed to a Different ROM. And Dutty's Has improved upon itself Exponentially. I can't stress how much better the Device just feels after getting off of a Stock ROM.
Do I need to worry about my radio version?
I used to ask my self the same questions, finally one day my friend got a tilt and dropped a cooked ROM on his phone. We compared speeds side by side and it was amazing the speed difference. Needless to say I went directly home to flash my ROM

Yes since certain radios only work for 6.1 roms which requires downgrading 1 or the other or sticking with 6.0 rom with 6.0 radio and same for 6.1.

newer roms and radios really help with performance of certain needed services like gps. I tested with and without custom roms and only 3 satellites with original rom and 7 or more satellites connect with newer rom
