which 6.5 rom should i use help! - Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development

hi i just recently purchased a touch hd telstra and am about to flash it with a 6.5 , there are a lot of talented people here with their own versions of 6.5, is there one that is the most standard rom with everything included and which one would that be?

Goodness me, this genre of question is asked two to three times a day, do some of your own investigating and research and in future follow the forum guidelines, dont be so arogant!

If you have to ask, you are probably better off sticking to the default ROM you phone comes with.

i suggest to make a sticky with the title 'NO WHICH ROM TO USE TOPICS HERE!!!!'
but not even that will stop some ppl from posting that ****.

You could even use the word KNOW instead of NO

I have a feeling this thread will be closed soon.
No ROM is the "best". Each excel in some ways and its up to you to decide whats best for you. Its a bit like asking someone for some good music. they will only tell you what they think is good, not necessarily what is good for you.
what does this mean? youre gonna have to try them all and see which you like most (shouldnt take more than an hour or so as there arent that many)

How can we know what will dissapoint you? Just try it, and if you don't like, choose another rom.
The time you have wasted creating this thread could be used better .
**** THE **** is with you people!!!! I am not asking you to read the threads and decide!!!
I JUST WISH Y'ALL TO GIVE ME YOUR OPINION ABOUT WM 6.5 ROM
Almost the new WM6.5 roms are equal...
So feel free to try one of the latest ones.
Its hard people say that "x" or "y" is the better one. I respect the coockers at XDA and so i refuse to say wich one to choose. So all i can say is to get one of the latest you find around.. they´re all almost the same thing in terms of speed and stability.
Or in other hand... you can always wait for the real one

I Agree wis kristaps, im also very confused, bout which ROM is better!

I mean comn, the gus is aksing a normal question!
Why are you all being so agressive!
i talk for myself. Im not beeing agressive... but why not just try one of the latest ones? Who am i to say that "x" or "y" is better?
They´re almost the same thing.. just pick one

I am thinking about Miri WM 6.5 21198 :: V 5.2 --- but its just because that rom has been around for the longest time and all the bugs should be worked out!!!!
But maybe I am wrong about those bugs!!!!
it drives me nuts when someone responds to these types of questions with **** like "LoL LERN TO READ"... or which is akin to "how about reading through the 2000+ posts on each rom to try to decipher whether or not it may or may not work the way you want it to, when in reality it would take me the same amount of time to type a valid response like [Hey, i use the so and so 6.5 rom and it works great for me, its fast, responsive, etc]... "
for jesus sake just answer the question or ignore the thread. I get my touch HD today, so i don't have any good advice, but i'm asking the same question this guy is. I don't have the time to browse through 65 pages of posts on each rom to find out the +/-

Well atleast Im not the only one!!!!!
Oh and congratulations on your new device!!!!
I would suggest miri's 6.5 ROM since thats the only one I have tested and felt it was fast and stable enough for the daily use.
I also like Davide's and HelloNasty cooking... but I have not flased their 6.5 ROMs lately.. so cannot comment on 'em.
Having said the above, I would also say, you cannot escape away from reading thorugh the threads... No one in the right mind would go thorugh every page of the 100 odd pages of the thread. You would usually browse through the last 5 or 10 pages to see what are the issues that are being discussed. Chefs release versions regulary fixing the problems. So it would make no sense reading about problems from earlier versions of the ROM that you have flashed. Especially the chef like "miri" released a ROM version almost every day... In fact he even released 2 version within 24 hrs.
So, flash any one of the latest versions of the ROMs by reading through the last few pages of the thread.
Hello everyone !
I agree with both of your comments.
As the firsts post said, sometimes you can't decide wich rom is better (cuz obviously there isn't).
You can't also say "oh that cooker suck" cuz i think even the worst cooker put 100000x more time, love anb contribution to this awesome comunity than people who send those kind of ugly remarks. I'm so impressed by rom cookers.
Secondly, it also depends of your daily uses, for instance i love fast and stable rom with nothing in it (like dutty's one) but some ppl like to have ton's of usefull apps ....
So yeah okay, you have to spend some time reading the board but it's not easy when you work 10h+ a day like me.
But on the other hand, it can always be appreciate when people who have time to test roms to give +/- advices.
For instance i'm reading posts speaking of 6.5 i'm very tempted but i have some questions :
- is it as fast as some dutty's rom for example (i'm saying dutty i only tryed his rom and love it)
- is it user friendly as manila ?
- will i be desapointed ?
It's also a pain when you have to read 207 pages of comments to know where to go, especially when comment's are "I installed this uber app of the death but it's not working with this rom gimme a fix" or "gogo change this icon i don't like it".
so ok tommorow i'll spend 1h to flash and test a 6.5 rom made by all those pro cookers but if i have 2/3 clues about wich one to pick or even if it's not necessary to try because 6.5 will not be as fast as 6.1 I think it can be always helpfull to have answers to those kind of questions.
But okay if noone have some precise advices i'll spend another hour or two to read all 6.5 rom posts it is just always nice and kind to help those in needs (i didn't said respond to very stupid questions of ppl who don't want to search 3sec about "how can i change my wallpaper" or "how can i make a call my provider is orange bla bla bla")
I'm glad when I see this kind of community and when everyone share his wisdom, please let's keep the same spirit.
See ya around,
Veskit
Both Mirri and HelloNasty are ok, Mirri has app. one to two frezze per day, is better concerning battery lenght, has nice dialer, but when going from messages to home freezez.
Nasty has a lot more applications, almost no need to install anything extra, but also freezez from time to time and aets battery like crazy.
PhamQuang is nice, but more for manilla oriented, and not working to good with lock app.
All together it's still raw beta and not ready for everyday / primetime.
Still very promising
hope this helps You
Like everyone else said, there are a fair few WM 6.5 ROM's try reading about them, see what bugs they have, see what fixes have been cooked in, etc. etc.
Thanks
Dave

But lately I when reading in the forum, I see a lot of complaining and ruud behavior when someone tries to post a question. Either people are told to search or they are on the wrong thread.
Why so ruud? noticed this is spesially senior members!!
why not try to help or point them in the right direction?
There are more replies on how"stupid" the question rather than just giving an answer or not reply at all

The reason is, ppl never bother to read the directions and rules set out in the forum, this thread is really not a contribution and does not comply with the specified layouts set out in starting a new thread. Admitably this topic does have some bearing but still its not really necassary.
Yes, you should be afraid of posting its a good thing it stops or prevents every noob starting another useless topic or the same topic over and over again.
If you actually read you would see the exact same question asked over and over and over, I guess that fact that you dont understand is proof that you dont read or search.
This is how I see it and Im a noob!

Hi,
Why Davideuck or Miri? Maybe you should have check ROMs coocked by Onkolog or PhamQuand. They are very good too and have similar bugs, eg. alarm doesn't work if HD is locked and sleeps, etc.
You should have try out each and make decision. Everyone has personal preferences.
Good luck bro
i'd like Karma rom.
i tried both in davideuck no touch flo but in miri there is both i thing in my opnion miri is better until now
Not working alarm from locked/sleeping state can be fixed with this tweak by enabling wakeup to full power
Try both and see witch one you like best.

In Davideuck you can have tf3d it depends wich version you chose...
I have used Miri 7.1 and now I use Davideuck V-7 with Manila. Both are great rom and it is up to you who you prefer. I always liked Davideuck so I use his rom now but thats only my choise.
If you dont like one of them flash the other one

I see your point, but when I get a response to my first post to try both versions I think that is not what I asked.
I have tried a lot of roms and it takes a lot of time to test all out! It is not done in one day! to test it it takes at least 2 days.
A forum (like this) is to share knowlage and experinces between users. isnt it?
I tried davideuck but quite lag. now i will change back to miri one
I think
I use Miri Rom 21500 7.2.
I think , if I can say somthing about the differences between the Roms I had to test both first. And If I test both I know or not what I am going to use.
So it is the wrong question !!
The Question is " WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ............ ROMs " ?
That´s what all the people whants to know without testing all ROM a cupple of Day´s without safty to register everything.

at least you can do it in the "general" forum not in the ROM Development forum.
you are transforming this forum in yr personal "give me an answer" forum. this is not a Q&A forum. with each answer you get you are pushing away from the first page really important stuff.
now after 13 posts what did u get? did u found somebody that used both ROMs and he can give a ready digested answer? did u really think that u can get a straight answer from such a (useless) thread? choosing a ROM is subjective. asking other's opinion instated of reading the relevant threads with user's opinion and user's reaction is pure laziness and total disregarding the forum rules.
all i (and many others) want is to be able to watch the ROM Development without being bothered by marathon chat threads that keep on growing without any benefit for the community.

we all have high expectations about other ppl.
welcome to the club of the disappointed ones!
I am on onkolog's 6.5 and its pretty AWESOME. I was using miri's 7.1 before I flashed to onkolog's. It is very smooth and I dont have the DayLightSavingTime bug in Manila (going back by an hour) in his ROM. The only complaint I have in onkolog's is the Calculator which SUX, but so does every other 6.5 ROM.
EDIT: I have not tried miri's 7.2 yet, so cannot comment on it.
My dilemma is...
...I am unfortunately a perfectionist.
And both roms, Miri's and davideuck's as well, aren't perfect.
So the following is what I like from Miri's rom:
the "sandclock" that appears when WM works looks much better
the menu icon of "file explorer" looks better (fits to the otehr HQ icons)
to be continued....
and here comes my positive thoughts about davideuck's rom:
RSS HUB onboard
HTC calendar starts the week with Moday
calculator is much better (rotation, you know..)
icon bar at the upper screen is awesome! and not buggy like Miri's
grey theme is great looking with black of Manila!
the used HTC dialer is my favorite (I loost track of all the names, versions and so maybe s.o can tell me which which is...)
to be continued...
what I wish to be introduces (in any of both roms) is...
A weekly view in HTC calendar
FULL German Translation (it ist a dream! not more and not less)
link feeds with RSS HUB when opening a newfeed via link in opera ;-)
stringent use of manila submenus, hints, warnings etc.

The "best" ROM?!

I'm thinking of update my ROM on my TyTN II.
But I really don't know what ROM to use.
Should I go for WM6.1 or WM6.5? If I use WM6.5, would the Kaiser get slower than WM6.1?
And it would be great to have a ROM that is more "fingerfriendly" than the orignial ROM, so I don't need to use the stylus for everything. I know i don't have to use it, but if the icon's where larger and so on, it would be so much easier =)
It would be great if some of you guys that have a little bit of knowledge at this area, just replied what ROM you like best and a link where to DL it =) Screens would be great =)
I've searched the forum, but every damn ROM says: "This is the best ROM ever made" hehehe... Yeah right, that makes it so much easier for me, and the other noobs on the forum
Thanx for any replies
//phjott
you should try each one, look it descriptions / pics and stuff, if you think is all you need, then thats the best rom for you
I know what you mean, but there are millions of ROM's out there. So I just wanna hear what ROM's people at XDA uses and likes the best.
I can't try each one, that's impossible. And I'm pretty new to PPC, so i don't know what to look at.
Here is a list of all the best roms with details and screen shots. The list also includes links.............http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=378
Look at the screenshots and the content list, pick one you like and flash. If after a wekk you don't like that one, flash the next one on the list.

But I still want to now what's the best choice of WM6.1 and WM6.5?
I want the best performance =)
Without me sounding like a a** best ROM discussions are against the forum rules.
I'm sure that stands here too, thats why you getting satiricle answers as there is no best ROM "so many variables on what people like & want" flash and you will find what you like which is what we all do.
Good luck in finding best ROM
p.s check peoples sigs that will give an idea
Thanx alot for quick replies! This is really a helpful forum =D
I've managed to succesfully flash my ROM now
Now my Kaiser is running: [Aug 4th][PDACorner] Ultimate-X2.V9 -23017|M2D|CHome|Enhanced Version
And I'm very pleased with that ROM, after checking it out for a couple of hours now But I have a problem, and that is the norwegian letters on the hardware keyboard does'nt work =( What do i need to do to get them to work? Tried to search the forum, but can't find a solution =/
Edit: I solved the problem with some simple reg.edits..

Fully Tested Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM for Touch HD

I am just wondering if the chefs are going to be making a fully tested windows mobile 6.5 rom anytime? If they will, will there still be bugs in them and especially the lock screen?
In before the abuse.
There are plenty of Windows Mobile 6.5 ROMs out there but unlike desktop operating sytems there are many many different versions.
Even official roms are going to have bugs, all we can do (as Touch HD users that will likely never get an official 6.5 rom) is find an active chefs whose work we like and give feedback on their releases...
...although even then I doubt we can "fully test" them.

agree with E Punk... the chefs test as best they can then it's up to us. when i hear "fully tested", i think of a high-level test strategy, detailed test plans (positive/negative tests), unit test, integration test, use case, debug-fix, user-acceptance-test, more debug-fix, etc., etc. that's simply a lot of work... once we get a hold of a ROM, load it, use it and report findings the chefs can review posts to look for consistent errors and those are generally fixed pretty fast. bottom line: if we wanna play, we have to be willing to accept that there will be bugs, behavior quirks or whatever you want to call it. the problem some of us have is knowing when to STOP flashing, lol!!!
i think that a version without major bugs will be out when htc releases official winmo6.5 rom updates for touch diamond2 and touch pro2, as those phones share 99% hardware with our hd
wm6.5 Downloads
Hi all
It is all very well 4 u experts. All these talk about flashing rom and WM6.5. However, no mention of where really this WM6.5 download is, the guy on youtube points to places that do not exist on xda developers site. I open Mary one thing it does not show any of the things he talks about. Also the hard spl he talks about caused me to waste 2 full days trying to restore my phone to its original function. Yes it was grbaged until with pere=severance I figured out a simple download to restore it. Can any one please make simple straight forward steps to find the WM6.5 download?

With all due respect, I can only assume based on your post count that you are new to the HD, you need to read this forum more. Find the wiki and and read it. I was on this forum for 4 months before I flashed my first rom. Windows 6.5 is not meant for our HDs. A lot of the issues that people are complaining about may or may not affect you. I have no problem with daily use with most of the roms I read and read before and after I flash. I don't expect anyone else to do the dirty work for me but there will always be someone who gets there before me. All these posts are inundated with "does this feature work" or "in the last rom I could do this can this rom do it". I know it is a pain in the backside to flash you phone all time but that is why we are hear. If you are just wanting the perfect rom then you are probably in the wrong place.
I hope this does not come across to hard but I read this forum almost every day. The best advice I can give you is to read then read some more. Or you could end up with an expensive brick.

This isn't an attack.
You don't understand the extent to which a cook has control over most bugs (or doesn't). Most of the bugs you see in the ROMs you're looking at are way beyond the cooks control. Remember, they don't have the source code -- they can't fix the software. What they can do is look for updated versions from the developers that might have fixed a problem (but maybe introduce new ones). The biggest control chefs have is over things that can be controlled in the registry: things like visual layou, etc. In addition, some optimization options are available when packaging the ROM, however, I'd advise that you just understand that 6.5 is still an unreleased beta product (even if plans for release have been finalized) at this point.
Your friendly community (volunteer) chefs have done all they can to bring us interesting samples of this upcoming product. The bugs are not a result of lack of testing at all.

Judging from how "4" and "u" are not words, and the way this unknown "youtube" guy has given him the impression that he's a representative of xda-dev, I'd say he's new the HD, and somewhat new to life -- maybe 14 or so years old.
Reminds me of the tone that AOL users had when they first came onto the "Internet". They used to angrily demand tech support for the Internet from ops in IRC as if those people worked for some "service" that they were paying for. Oh, those were the days.
Your advice was perfect.

Slightly going off orginal query topic which has already been answered well in my opinion by both Electronic Punk & cortez.i. Not much else needs to be discussed on that topic

Fastest X1 ROM out there?

Hi
What custom ROM would you say is the fastest one out there. Does not matter if its 6.1 or 6.5, just need it to be fast.
Many thanks
826x or dynamics 2.0 any of these i'm currently using 826x latest build and it is blazing fast xD
how about "test them yourself?!"
and how about "ask in the right forum?!" this isn't exactly a dev-related question.
oh, and the fastest rom with what? with sense? without? bare-rom? or do you want applications installed? questions like "which is the fastest?" are pretty useless. or the best. or the most stable.
and above all, they're just plain lazy!
just go and flash the roms that are actively developed. there aren't that many left these days. noone knows how you use your phone and you don't know how other people use their phones. or how many roms they've tried before saying "this is the best".
Well
If you want fast for X1 stay with the original ROM (6.1). It was design for this device so you will get the least bugs and SOD's.
As for me I used Energy and couple other ones, they were OK but after having my device replaced I never got back to flash custom ROM.
I heard 826x is good and so is Dynamics 2.0 (this Dynamics will be releasing new ROM soon...so he said).
@caliban2
I thought this was user friendly forum there is no need for your replay like that.
I agree that every one is using their device different way, but can you image what would happen if people would not voice their opinion? This world would go to crapper dude.
Every opinion counts and maybe you are tech savvy, not every one is, and even you were not born that way, you had to ask questions. Right?
We all make mistakes as some point in our lives, little pointers the right directions are good, but comments like yours don't make friends.
Also I though that in order to ask question in dev forum you need to be some sort of level (like 10 post or something like that).
Like the old saying goes "If you don't have nothing nice to say, don't say it at all."

wrong.
i had to search & read a lot before becoming the 47th person asking the same question again - i think there's something in the rules about that. and how many "best rom/fastest rom"-threads are there now? aren't those in general / q&a section enough? and don't tell me this thread has anything to do with if someone's "tech-savvy"...
but hey, if you guys are happy going through the same topic over and over again - have fun!

Thank you, see was that so hard?
P.S.
As new ROMs are being create "the same topics" are not exactly the same...like ford is not the same this year as it was couple of years back....or even last year.
good thing is:
i don't get any of the bugs reported in here. but then, i'm not really running the same rom.

Does this look familiar? If last year ROMs are as good as this year, why are you using ultrashot kitchen to create new ROM?
Why Energy is updating his every few days?
Why not use jerpelea last years kitchen?
See my point?
in my opinion best custom ROM for X1 is gtrab's SEX1 Pure ROM
It's WM6.5 with Titanium and all XPeria stuff (without Sense). Zero weird customizations, just OS upgrade from WM6.1 to WM6.5.

don't get condescending. i don't think i need your permission or approval, hm?
it ain't hard at all. but at least keep it in the right forum, not dev.
why am i using dynamic-kitchen? because itje stopped cooking, i was using ervius kitchen after that and when ultrashot released his, he made it easy for me to make the switch to osbuilder.
you see? has nothing to do with "last years roms are still good". where did i say that anyway? but what's strange is that in these "best rom"-threads always very old roms are recommended: gtrab stopped cooking a long time ago, and now even stock is good?!
for the rest it simply comes down to personal taste. and how stable a rom is. so, what does it tell you if i say "in the past 2 years i never had a stable rom from agent47, gtrab, nrg or 826x etc. only itje and ultrashot made everyday-roms"?
right, it tells you nothing. because your experience and demands are different. also, saying "this is the best rom of them all" is quite demeaning to all the other cooks which provide you with a choice, don't you think?
but to keep with the thread:
from reading the last few pages of the active rom-threads, it looks like dynamics is the most stable combined with the latest software. 826x-series seems also fast and stable. oh, wait. now it's down again to personal taste, right?

Heheh...you are funny.
Thanks guys for taking the time to reply to my question. And yes, maybe the question was not clear enough when i wrote it for some people.
I am looking for the fastest custom, dont need any preinstalled programs or any fancy things. Its gonna be used on a device to remote control the PC, so the only thing i will be needing is a VNC program, and that i can download by myself.
I actually searched the forums for a related topic before i started this one, and could not find any that was up to date enough. This topic is not like the other ones where people ask "whats the best rom", i am looking for a specific thing in the rom, it needs to be fast.
Anyhow, thanks for the tips for those that replied.
@caliban2, I am looking for other peoples opinons on what they think the fastest rom is, that is one of the things a forum is for, to hear other peoples opinons. Yes, i can test every single rom out there, but i thing its just better to check with the people more involved in the recent roms out there, thus this sub-forum.
that's indeed a different approach... ^^
sounds like you need just a fast barebone phone, with no fancy stuff at all and as much free resources as possible. in that case i think stockrom should be the best choice. winmo 6.1 is less demanding than 6.5, performance-wise.
so either stock or find an old custom-rom from 6.1-era (year 2009; there were a few, gtrab did such stuff and agent47 had one as well, iirc), where most apps were removed and nothing from htc has been added. you could also dump stockrom, remove stuff you don't need and re-cook your own barebone.
and of course, you can always go for a more recent 6.5-barebone, but 6.1 should be the optimum.
well a really fast ROM would be one running a bare WM6.1 or 6.5.x
you could try PURE. his ROMs are very minimalistic and emphasize on speed and functionality. and in my opinion they are very stable too. dont expect TF3D or sense though.
even ENERGY has very minimalistic ROMs. and since he has skinned various versions, u can choose the best one for you.
check these links out and see which u like.

some people just get frustrated and angry sitting whole day long in front of their PC´s and phones it seems. Its a simple question and im here because i have also the same question. Someone whith a brain would start answering wit firts 6.5 or 6.5.3, of course bare , and which one is the fastest. Fast comes from speed and can be interpreted as a lack of delay or retardness, also. Anyhow if you want to give usefull answers or help with your knowledge then proof showing your angor to some real people ine real life.
Best Rom is Dynamics 2.1.
Best ROM
In my opinnion it is the x826 ROM. Before this rom is used the Energy Rom but, batterie life is not good with this rom, so I installed x826 ROM, it was faster, and more batterie friendly and I never had any error or freeze.
In my opinnion it is the x826 ROM
826x and happy camper. Been using it for about 2 months and it's working just fine for me.
i think official rom the best but energyRom and 826x is nice rom too,,,,
I tried almost every rom.but the best in speed with good programs is dynamics 2.2.0...u must forget about sense,the best with sense is 826x but have some problems.energy is full of useless programs
