Can someone advise a spb mobile shell compatible rom - Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development

Hi, I know this thread won't last long, but...
I really need someone to recommend a rom/s that I can use spb Mobile shell. I tried it with duttys 6.5 r12 rom, but it keeps crashing and dying.
Other people asking for which rom to use have been told that they need to ask what features they want and I want it to be stable and fast and to be compatible with mobile shell.
From reading other threads similar to mine, it seems noone wants to give any specific advise... so if you think this is the wrong place to ask please please tell me where to ask before you close the thread.
PS. all i want is for someone to say, 'try this one or this one', instead of 'you have to try them all and be the judge yourself'. thanks

I have used miris and onkologs roms and had no issues with spbms. My experience have been best with both of them otherwise too....

i have onkolog superlite 6.5 rom with spb mobile shell... fastest thing i ever seen

whats wrong with the standard 1.56 rom or 1.59 rom if you're gonna put sbp mobile shell on it? the standard ones work fine

@pw120 :
It's working, but he wants the faster one for SPB

Haha, loved it

I have tried heaps of roms, Miri and onkolog were fast, i tried numerous dutty ones but they die horrible deaths for some reason. I used the enrgy rom also.
The best one I tried was B!ch0ns rom from http://htc-touch-hd.forumactif.biz/
unfortunately it is a french ROM.
It was the best rom because there is a problem with all of the roms I have tried, where clicking the windows notification for missed calls or sms's does not load the call registry or sms program no matter how many times you click. (not in B!ch0n or onkolog)
The other problem is that when using the Phone application, the contacts soft button does not work.
Somehow B!ch0n found a workaround for that.
Has anyone used a rom that doesn't have the notification problem after installing mobile shell?

I have spb shell version 3.5. I've faced the notifications problem with energy roms. In dutty's R6 rom, when clicking the soft button for missed calls or contacts, it brings up the spb interface for both.
Bottom line, try this rom.

If you want to find a Lite or Superlite Rom, you can test those one :
- Barbone Rom from JonPatcher
- Lite and Superlite Rom from Onkolog
- The UltraLite from EpiphanyNL
@+

Thing is this has been asked before. Theres even a thread on creating a rom specifically for SPB. Unfortunately its a dutch rom, but Im sure you could change the language easily enough.
Bottom line is all roms will work with SPB, but your looking for a hight performance rom. Plenty of roms already listed above by others, best option would be too try a few of these, especially the lite ones and make your own conclusions. Alternatively there is also SPB threads in software forum. Surely one of these guys would be able to advise you as well.
Either way, I see no point for another thread on a topic already covered and asked before.

Help installing manila...

I've been installing the new WM6.5 by Davideuck...
Is super nice and fast, but has no manila...
Sometimes i miss manila, couse is user friendly and i'm used to use it (lol).
Can somebody help me installing it? Is there a cab file or a way to do it?
PS. I've been asking twice into the rom's thread but nobody gave me answers, so i ask it here.
Thank u
Mit
I think no one has answered because manila is not available as a cab yet, should search before posting. Try Miri's V7 Premium version (7.1 coming in the morning) It has manila and titanium, so you can switch between the two.

I already tryed that rom and i had some issues... That's why i want to try to install manila on Davideuck's ROM... I'll try the 7.1
tnx anyway
The problem with making Manila a cab is that it depends on a lot of other packages like Concurrence Manager, Push Internet, even Album, Audio manager etc. Without knowing what you have in your ROM it's impossible for someone else to make a working cab for you (without making cabs for all the missing packages, which is a real pain, they could conflict with what's already installed etc.). This is especially difficult given that most ROM cooks (with a notable exception of panosha and johnpatcher) aren't really collaborating and protect their ROMs so that nobody can see what and how they cooked in.
On the other hand, your current ROM is super fast exactly because it doesn't have all these packages! Of course a system is fast when it's empty. The inconvenience is the flipside of speed in this case.
In addition to that, I had Manila as a cab for one of my ROMs for testing purposes, and I have to tell you that its installation is very slow (because of the huge number of files and its sheer size). So it's extremely difficult and time-consuming to test and it's just easier to cook it in.
So I would recommend you to use a ROM with Manila if you want it.

WM 6.5 or 6.1

Hi,
i have been verry happy with my MDAII with one of the original german 1.72 ROMs, but as more and more tools seem only to run from 5.0+ i think the time has come to update.
So, as a noob, the question for me is: Use an 6.1 rom(which then?) or go straight to 6.5? What would you recommend regarding performance, stability, usability and program support... WWE or german would be fine for me.
Until now is used my hima basically as phone(profiles with PocketZenPhone), navigation(tomtom) and other gsp gimmicks (using gspgate) and to schedule my appointments/task(pocket informant).
Thanks for any help,-)
Frank
P.S.: From the look i would chose 6.5 but it seems like Spb Mobile Shell would allow such things also on 6.1 ???
First make sure you have a copy of your original rom,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=510675
then you can test yourself.
Normally you can switch back and forth, as you like to.
Everything you need is in this forum, read ask the search button and use your brainpower!

6.5 vs 6.1

i'm sowry to put the same title again, but you didn't understood me. Wath i really want is to know if the cooker's can do a rom with the start menu of 6.1 and the way for instance we go to settings and connections and system, the way the pages are shown, the fonts, colours and so on.
may be the form i'm sayng this is not the most correct, and maybe my fault, but i'm trying the best i know.
I'm not asking you the rom you prefer - in that questions, i think each one should try and choose the one who serves you better, and it's impossible to please everybody....
i think it will be great to have a rom 6.1, with the usal interface, but when you press for instance settings - sounds, appear the fonts and graphics like 6.5 rom's... and connections and the file explorer and .....
is it possible, if yes i think the 6.1 rom will be much
i'm sayng this because 6.5 for me is confused, to achieve settings, programs and you have to scroll the front page and others.
my objectif is to know if that is possible, just that, and if someone can do that, infortunately, i don't know
IF the MOD think's this isn't the right place, he will do the right thing, to close or to put it in another place - all i want is to help, give ideas, and i'm not worried if the MOD come to close the thread - he will do the best...
If the MOD think's this thread doesn't have any utility please do what you have to do. i will not insist in this questions again
But i don't lose my time, just to ask to be closed....
Why don't you try a 6.5 with Manila? Like Miri Premium

I'll see if answer's my questions.
Thank you
Are you saying you want a wm 6.5 rom with the start menu of a windows 6.1 rom? Why would you want this?
I don't see the point, 6.5 is only a graphic evolution of 6.1, if you remove that, 6.1=6.5.
You can install the wisbar advance and get the same fn in wm6.5
i like classic start menu. For me is easy to access last programs used before and the access to programs in general. Just that.
Miri is a good option in fact, but classic menu cab doesn't work.
But i appreciate your help indeed.
Thnank you.

Looking for a specific sort of ROM...

Searching appears to have failed me, but I'm looking for a up to date, optimized (recent drivers etc), Manila/Sense LACKING 6.1 ROM for the Xperia.
Could anyone provide some guidance with that? I can't really find any
EDIT: To clarify, thats a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM without manila or sense UI
Maybe you should look at the forum? Searching specific terms won't give any good results back.. These roms basically plague the forum, i dont know how you could not find ANY

And that's just the first page
6.1, not 6.5 I'm aware of the huge amounts of 6.5 ROMs
Bad grammar is bad
Even if there's manila/sense, you dont have to enable them.. no different tbh

Hi,
I can maybe try to cook something like that for you... you want other apps included (youtube, facebook, etc.) or totally clean?
Do you want X1 panel manager installed? Any X1 panels?
Will post a link here if I get it cooked...
-Oobly
the stock roms aren't too bad, but i can only think of two 6.1 roms without manilla/ sense;

i've used this and can recommend it
bxsteez lite 1.05
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475083
otherwise, as mentioned it could be worth trying some of the established 6.1 touchflo roms and just disable touchflo. 'pctech4u' and 'touch x' come to mind. check out the rom library, ther might be more
I am on an own-cooked ROM which I can upload for you, or anybody else.
WM6.1 build 21051, no manila, no panels, some little apps that are useful for me and some selected HTC staff like enlarge start menu, volume control, FM-radio etc
I am using it for the last 2 months and it's very fast and stable. Perfect for SPB MS users.
I cannot provide any support though. No much time. Normally you won't need any.

What is the latest and the best 6.1 ROM ???

sorry to open a new thread for that but i have been surfing the web for this everywhere and got tired of searching too many complicated advantages and disadvantages ... i found Topix 3.1.4 and i got it installed now right after the Rom in my signature and it is damn fast and decided i am not getting back to 6.5 anymore but topix has its own disadvantages the one that is making me look for another rom is the fact that I cannot send messages outside manila ... windows sms window is blank white and i am really into threaded original view of windows mobile 6.1 sms i dont wanna use manila for sms and could not find any fix for that then i found out that the latest dutty 6.1 is sooooooo old I wonder why there are no chefs spending some time on a win mo 6.1 for blackstone that was originally designed for 6.1 roms
if you just can point me to the latest 6.1 rom out there i will be so grateful if not then chefs please make one

search for onkolog 6.1 full. though it is not recent at all but it is the most stable most bug free fastest rom i ever came across of and been using it for months now without any problems what so ever. regarding the threaded messages i dont know why you dont want to use manilla since manilla also has threaded messages just like the regular widows messaging system and even more appealing to the eyes. hope this helps
forgot to say that windows messaging system in this rom is also working perfectly in case you still want to use it.
