Which ROM(Shipped or Cooked) is the Best

I do care about Performance and Have a clean ROM...Please Post your feedback on Tested ROMs Specially Cooked ROMs(Molski..etc).
I'd like to know an answer to that question as well.
I'm running: ROM: 2.21.2.8 GER
ExtROM: 2.21.2.110
I'm decided to cook the rom but I don't not with which rom to replace it. So yes my Question is again what is the best rom and a link would be much appreciated.
Which fruit (cooked or straight off the tree)is best ?
Not to be a smart @$$, but really it all depends on exactly what you want out of the device and are going to be doing with the device.
Well I'll be doing anything I can do with it. That means use it as a gps device, be connected to wlan for the most of the time, edit documents use the calendar and so forth. I think the only thing I won't be needing is the camera.
I'd like a ROM that is really costumazible. So I could cvhange anything I won't and that the ROM is fairly quick hopefully quick enoughto run skype on it....

What Rom you choose is a personal issue, there is no thing like "the best rom", one preffers Mr. Clean Rom, others like the T-Mobile Roms and others like Roms that made by Faria, Risidoro or me...
You just have to install a few Roms, test them out and keep the one that suits the most for you...
Molski
Check this "risidoro" 2 26 ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276700
Do I need to cook this rom to use it on my device or is it ok if I just run the setup? As it look's like the G4 rom doesn't include the IPL and SPL files.
I think this thred really should be 2 threads
until someting is sorted we have 2 different machines
G3 and G4
OR let this thread stay ande and we could start a " What is the best G4 locked Phone Rom?"
Bhayani

What's the best and lattest rom for the 8925 tilt?

anyone knows that can point me in the right direction?
please check out the kaiser rom development forum. It has tons of information about roms and new rom releases.
Right now Dutty, Leo, Shogunmark, DK all have releases on the latest os build. Please browse and see the one you like as roms are based on individual taste. What i like you might hate ... so search and flash different roms to find your perfect match
happy flashing..
just advice (don't take it wrong way): before flashing roms make sure you flash hardspl to your device first. The only reason i give this advice is because i see you are junior member and i sincerely don't want you to brick your phone.
peace,
Sire
thanx for the info playa

That is a question that has been ask numerous times on this forum ad nausium. Generally this is a forum that gives specific answers to specific questions. People who come in here and ask subjective questions are met with much annoyance. It tells people that you didn't bother to read any of the other hundreds of posts on this subject and didn't bother to help yourself using our resources.
I explain this because you are new here. Like cars, there are many different roms for many different needs there is no best. As far as the latest official rom, you already have it on your phone.
You would not walk in to the library and ask the librarian to teach you, you would get the appropriate books and teach your self. The same must be done here if you want to fit in and make friends. After becoming informed , if you have any questions people will be happy to answer them here
... I'll be more specific then.. Can somebody please let me know which official wwe 6.0 rom is the latest? is it that dopod version from wiki? (1.82.721.1)
I'm asking, as I noticed that not all of roms are listed down there and I am soooo dissapointed with official 6.1 that I want to go back.
thanks for reply mates

Got a New Diamond. Where to start ?

So I just got my new Diamond (Hong Kong traditional chinese version), version below:
ROM: 1.37.832.4 CHT
Date: 06/23/08
Radio: 1.00.25.03
Protocol: 52.26a.25.09H
I wanted to get the most out of the little phone. What tweaks and fixes I need to do to get to everyone elses "standard" ? Such as updating, changing the language to english, some kind of ways to backup my old ROM, speed fix on the menus and navigation, tweaks on longer battery life Also tell me if there is more needed.
Can anyone tell me where to get those stuff (Or if those things exists) ? I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you very much !
update to WWE rom and flash the radio, use the roll up stickies as tutorials at the top of the pages, read, search and you will find.
no one here will want to find it for you. open your eyes and take a look around. its all here.
end of topic.

Hey, I am new to this and I don't have the slight understanding of how these things work. That is why I'm asking for help. I wouldn't want to install the wrong things and kill my diamond (It happened before with my PSP =/).
But thank you for answering. Is updating the rom and radio all I need ?

Ouch, harssshhh.
To the original postah... Search for "Diamond Tweaks", should be a sticky in this forum. Those should help a lot for the performance of your Diamond. You CAN flash a new ROM and radio (make sure to Hard SPL first, search on how to do that!) but it's not necessary and taking a risk... Not a very big one, but devices have been turned to paperweights from flashing messups many times. To keep it basic use those Diamond Tweaks, start your device off right with Schaps Advanced Configuration tool (www.touchxperience.com) and TF3D Config, maybe Diamond Tweak (a program called that, searchsearchsearch) as well. To get a registry editor you can also go to touchxperience.com, you'll need that for most of the tweaks. Now go, go, go!
Thanks for the answers.
I have decided to flash the Rom cause I wanted to get the best out of the phone.
I come across this guide on flashing: http://modmydiamond.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=26
And this for list of Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=413910
The problem I have now is that I don't know which Rom is the best to flash into. And whats the difference between Offical and Cooker rom (Which is better)?
Again, thanks for answering. I appreciate it.
each person have different prefrenses and use their pda's for different things
which is why there are more then one rom called superrom which everybody use
so it is kinda hard to answer the question which one is best for you
trying various is most likely the best path

Yeah there is alot of them. =/
I'll try them out.
But can you tell me if the cooker ones are better than the offical ones ?
And is this the official English Rom: RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.93.456.2 ?
Thx !

...better? They are newer; look: Just like in Windows XP Microsoft also generates new builds of windows mobile. Also HTC does this with his own applications. The cookers always takes the newest builtds and gave us the great roms!
ok?
Just look at it like this, cooked roms are customized by people on here that want better performance, the official roms are what HTC puts out to try and make it work for everyone. If you find a cooked rom that works for your needs, it's likely to be better because it doesn't include all of the stuff that doesn't interest you. Better yet, you could cook your own rom if you really want to, look for a tutorial on it. Not incredibly difficult, just takes some time to learn. (This is my perception of it, I've never cooked a rom myself but it doesn't seem so impossible)
Thank you guys, I chose the SwiftBL for the Rom since it have just what I need and much more.
But I have another question about the Radio Rom. I have the Radio version 1.00.25.03 and I wanted to ask do I need to update/change it ? If it's not necessary, can I skip this step and just update my Rom and not the Radio ?
Thx !

read!?! nobody told me i was suppose to read before trying to flash my phone for the first time?!! jk
yeah, just look around at the different tutorial on here, and it should help you to better understand it. I just got my diamond last week, and i can't believe how much i can change on this phone compared to my old S60 v3 phone...
I wouldn't change the radio unless you have issues with reception... But that's me, I'm very conservative compared to most on here when it comes to flashing/changing major aspects of the phone.
I have completed the flashing the Rom and Radio on my Diamond and thank god it didn't brick.
Everything is done now so thank you guys very much for everything.

Tutorial Request for n00bs

Hi guys iv been trying out most of the ROMs on here on my new rhodium and i cant seem to find one that fits my needs, i just want a stock ROM such as the signed one with everything stripped out of it and no viual mods but something that will allow me to add custom clocks, taskbars and such things as in a cooked ROM, i know this isnt a possibility as everyone is out to try and prove themselves so i came to the conclusion that making my own from the stock signed or vodafone roms i have,
I have done some basic programming before albeit in visual studio which does write the code for you but i understand the basics of coding and debugging
I would like to ask for the most basic of basic tutorials or links that will get me started, i.e: You will need Visual Kitchen V3...... [Link] and you will need to have [this] rom and such
As im pretty sure i have most of the resources i just have no idea where to start, I'd really appreciate any help!
I'v been checking out the forum for quite a while and have learned a lot, love the work you guys are doing!
Thanks again!
EDIT:
Im only trying to create a 6.1 ROM not interested in 6.5 due to the speed issues it has
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550028 may help, also Search is your friend

Give me a day or two and my PRO Super D-Lite (just thought of name for my new lite ROM) will be out and you will love the speed of it even with 6.5. I have an early test build in my older thread if you want to try it but the final is coming very soon.
I felt the same way as you with 6.5 but this ROM has me loving 6.5 now
Cheers Gordon,
And thanks Atom ill keep an eye out for it man!
And that thread Gordon linked to is great just what i was looking for, i did search but to no avail multiple times )=
Just keep reading and searching, all the info is on this forum or the wiki pages somewhere...

Looking for ROM 21854 based

Hi all.
I have a request to the chefs.
For quite a while I was trying to find the most stable (for my purpose) ROM for my Blackstone. At the moment the best I have is Sunrise 2.7 - perfect in my opinion. The only problem is - I'm not good with French...
My question is: Can someone cook a new ROM for me please in English? Or post a link to the existing one? I didn't found any...
Alternatively, you can advice which ROM is most stable, quickest and most reliable? It takes few days to try ROM, so obviously I haven't try them all.
Thanks in advance,
Yeramihi

Unfortunately mate there is no such thing as the perfect rom. Everyone has different tastes, favourite chefs so what I may consider as being the most stablest, fastest etc, you may disagree etc etc
If you have found a rom already which you consider ticks all these boxes except for the French part, why not ask within that rom thread, you may find other french users or that chef may make you a french rom
Alternatively you will just have to keep searching
Best of luck
