New developments - Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development

Thought we could use this thread for new things that pop up in Manila or WM 6.5 instead of people posting in rom threads this can be our upto date one stop shop!
So...... what's the goss?
fanks!
(Mods can we get this sticky?)

Threads are only stickied if they are extremely useful and used everyday continuously. So far this thread has provided nothing. Also, when a new manila is released generally a new thread is posted about it and people comment within that thread. Chef's update their threads (first post) or create new threads when they create a rom with a new manila. Generally when someone has an issue with a certain rom, whether it be manila or anything else they post their query in that rom thread, including manila issues as although a lot of chef's may use same manila, they don't always have same issues as other registry changes have been implemented into indivial roms.
So no need to post in this thread?

[RESOURCES] Blackstone Goes Wiki [UPDATED 08 NOV] Cooked ROM's List

HTC Blackstone Wiki Pages
The xda-developes wiki system is a (shamefully) under-used resource, lets change that shall we? The information is available to ALL users and naturally being a wiki everyone can contribute to it, details about ROMs and download links etc can be added when they appear and it is easy to use.
ALL new members need to take a read through it BEFORE asking questions since if it is a common topic you WILL find it in the wiki.
Common useful pages in the wiki include:
PM a moderator to get something in the wiki added here
Rather than have an endless number of sticky threads containing the same information as in the wiki we actively encourage ALL members to use the wiki to its full potential, lets make an example of this forum and show the community in its best light.
Dont be scared of adding/editting information, its there for everyone so if something usefull is not in the wiki....add it!
Note:: we will be monitoring ALL changes so dont abuse the system. If there is a popular page which you think deserves a quick shortcut to in this sticky thread, PM a moderator to have it added. Enjoy people.
* Not yet in the wiki, perhaps somebody should add it?
As stated by mrvanx if you PM a moderator suitable posts can be added to this thread including this worthy one from Jason1978
HTC Blackstone Cooked ROMs on the Wiki
There is a Wiki page which details all of the current ROMs for our Blackstone / Touch HD devices.
The ROMs are in tables in an easy to read format, including links to the individual threads, the download links, and details OS version numbers, build numbers, Sense/Manilla versions etc against each ROM, making it easy to compare...
The page can be found by clicking the link at the very top of the post. It can be updated by anyone, but I will try and keep the page updated on a regular basis, and others have committed to this also.
The page concentrates currently on WM6.5 and beyond. There are very few WM6.1 builds coming out, so I have not updated that table to come in line with the new WM6.5 table.
Please feel free to update any details on the Wiki when cooks bring out updated versions. Also, if you have a ROM that is listed installed on your phone, please feel free to update missing information or correct anything that is wrong. If you add a new entry from a cook, please archive the old row on the table at the bottom of the page if the version is seen as a replacement. Be careful as some cooks have multiple current releases which are from different development streams, i.e. COM2, COM3, COM5 etc.
Many Thanks

Another ‘Which ROM?” thread….

Hi folks, I’m not from around these parts, I live in the Kaiser world!
I have a friend who is not technically minded, but wants me to update the ROM on his diamond.
I need to put a stable ROM on there that he can use day in day out without having to worry about solving bugs etc himself as I won’t be around to do it for him! He’s just your average, email, music and texting user – doesn’t need anything specific.
Over in the Kaiser section I would recommend PDA Ultimate V19. There are better versions after this, but in the drive for perfection and speed, each new release throws up bugs that need tweaking every now and then – this is what I’m trying to avoid.
Please can you let me know which version of a ROM you would recommend for him? The one you’ve run for ages and always return to. If there are just one or two tweaks I need to make to it, if you could detail those and I’ll sort them before I hand him his upgraded diamond back never to be tweaked again!!
Thanks in advance
Ps. Mods – didn’t want to clutter the ROM section with this, so put it in here.
Please be considerate ogf others and read the rules before posting.

ATTENTION!: We are glad that our community is growing really fast. Unfortunately, the number of topics in the threads of the forums grow in a very larger manner. Unfortunately not every user is aware of the general forum usage and posting rules. As a direct conseque to that MODERATORS will apply the Diamond forum, as one of the most active forums on the site, a very strict moderating policy which might imply:
immediate thread deletion when newly created thread addresses an already discussed topic;
immediate thread deletion when newly created thread addresses an issue such as "Which ROM is the best", "Diamond vs iPhone", etc.;

I did read the rules.
Did you read my post?
also interested
I am also interested in this. I have read all the threads till now and kinda convinced me not to update the ROM. From what i've read, ROM v 1.93 has many bugs (e.g. phone rings one and then no more, send SMS to someone and I receive the message -> these are only single member problems, not happened to many people). In the end ... any suggestions on ROM update?
Yeh - what i always return to is stock rom and SPB Mobile Shell v3 on top of it - it's awesome...

[POLL] Android Sub-Forum? (Please Sticky)

All of these new Android-based threads can get confusing to keep track of and/or even 'lost' among all the WinMo ROM development threads. I think an Android Sub-forum would be nice.. what about you?
Android Threads:
[ROM/BOUNTY] Rhodium Android Port [$1125/$2435] - Early builds in post #3 [12/24]
Poll: Android Port to HTC Touch Pro 2
[ANDROID2.0.1] Rhodium versions
[Resources]Haret Ported Android 1.6 Donut Version for Rhodium(Milestones)
I just feel if we don't do this there will be many off topic threads started asking what android is or questions about the android port. A new Sub-forum would keep this area clear of that.... Plus you'd have a one stop location to keep up with just android, if you've eventually dropped window mobile and stuck with androidd (hoping that android becomes that stable).
Agreed
Agreed. Please create an Android subforum.
No theres only one thread worth reading (out of about 5), the bounty thread.
If you cant keep up with it in the rom development forum, what is the chance of you finding it in a sub forum clogged with other android forums.
I think you'd be ebtter of with the main thread stickied rather then a new sub forum.
There are now some sections specially for Android
Anyway better to ask Mods on this special thread so they are aware of your request:

All 2 of them? It should be under apps just like games, emulators and addons..
I haven't found it particularly hard to keep track of, but think it would be better if a Rhodium Android sub forum was created alongside Rhodium Rom Development.
I think the Rhodium ROM Development sub forum should really be for custom Windows Mobile ROMS, not questions about Android builds, issues and related.
A separate sub forum for Android on Rhodium would allow many threads relating to various issues of Rhodium Android development to be easily found rather than all Rhodium Android stuff being found somewhere in a big messy thread within the ROM Dev sub forum.
The poll currently shows the majority agreeing this is the way forward, we'll see what the mods think.
I will agree that right now it's not that big of a deal, but when this stuff starts working, there will be a bigger issue with keeping everything straight.
Yes please, will make everything more "neater" .
I vote Yes
I totally agree .........
(for now) i personally don't care for WM ROM modding, so for me to find a few android threads in a sea of WM is more difficult than it could be.
and I'm sure WM-only folks won't mind seeing 'offtopic' threads gone.
it'll be easier to start threads for different topics and not get buried in an avalanche of WM threads.
it cost admins nothing to create Android specific forums for us..
Ok!
Really good idea, I agree.

Has Miri Stopped developing roms for our blackstones?

just like the title says, has miri stopped?
i have not seen any new roms over at htcpedia.com and here at xda for quite a long time. ive always been checking for the past 3 weeks and havent found anything new except for HTC LEO roms from miri
anyone know?
Did you really need a new thread for this? Why don't you just ask the question in the current miri threads as surely the users there will know best?
Finding information is hard enough, not least because of folks creating new threads.
It's not like this is even Miri's main location...
Anyway, I suspect the most likely reason for a lack of activity is a lack of upstream software... (no new Sense, or Windows versions of significance (yet))
As per above posts, why did you create a new thread for this? No need whatsoever.
Please read over the forum rules again and post your query in one of Miri's threads

No sound anymore, can someone help me?

Since i changed from WM6.1 to WM6.5 none of the ROM's have sound anymore.
I won't use a WM6.1 anymore, i want to use the WM6.5 ROM's.
Does someone knows a possible fix for this?

First , welcome to the forum. That said, you are not going to make too many friends around here if you continue the way you started.
3 Posts and 2 of them were new useless threads to further clutter our forum.
It is nice to meet you but you could nave easily posted your " hello " and your question in the same thread, also it is against forum rules to double post the same question in the rom dev. and general forum.
The " no sound issue " has been answered 1000 times in a 100 different threads. A simple search would have found an answer without the need to start yet another thread about it. Flash a new and compatible radio from here.
Sorry to sound mean, but new threads by newbies, clutter the forum and make searching 100's of times harder, because of all the useless hits.
Welcome to the forum.
Same sentiments as denco7 please respect forum rules no double posts.
Also using the search will provide 99% of questions peeps have.
On that note thread closed.
