Hello,
I'm new to the Rhodium, but I have some experience in cooking Sable roms.
So, the WM6.5 ROMs where a bit too slowly for me, however all WM6.1 roms doesn't have Sense. I made a hybrid - WM6.1 ROM with Sense 2.1. Works perfectly! Smooth, stable and so on... I have just one problem with this hybrid, my "Wired Remote Control RC E100" stopped working. It always starts Windows Media Player instead of Manila Player. If I cook the old Touch FLO 3.0 (without changing the other ext packages and OEM's) the problem is gone. It works perfectly if I cook the whole OEM's from a WM6.5 rom. But if I do that, a lot of other programs do not work anymore (for example keyboard). I think it's a problem with a driver that is compatible only with Sense or TouchFLO, but I can not figure out with one is it! That's lame, because my ROM is finished and just this issue stops me to using it (my wired remote control is important for me)!
Any help is very appreciated.
Edit: The answer is here:

Post the rom so i can take a look.. Always wanted a 6.1 w/ sense rom.. ;D
Yeah, me too... Trust me, the speed is awsome...
Anyway I dont think you can help me just with a finished ROM, maybe I should post my kitchen? Everything works fine, just the crappy remote control doesn't :/ I have to find with driver controls this!

Well i wanted to use the rom of course.. And i think the best thing to do would be to go thru the 6.5 oems adding a few at a time til the problem stops. then to see what you added that effected the remote..
Requires alot of flashing tho..
If you don't use a wired remote control... The rom could fit you ;D
OK, ill upload the rom asap... I'm a bit busy right now.

I checked already the registry, nothing there... I even swaped the .rgu files!
I will have to check all the drivers :/ And this will take an whole age -_-
I checked the cab file with HTC drives for the remote control... And there is just one suspicious file: wavedev.dll. I used this driver from WM6.5 OEM, but it doesn't change anything!
Ummmm... post it please!!!! Sounds like An awesome hybrid. Does it have the smooth flow In scrolling that 6.5 has? Besides sense 2.1 that would be my only other want. Don't really care, but, titanium will be gone cus this is meant to be fast and light right...... thanks... looking forward to the release!!!

Guys, firstly I need to fix my issue xD The ROM i have created is for my personal use, it hasn't got UC, it has a lot of my stuff and so on...
If there is need for such a rom, i'll create one. But this needs some time.
Edit: Yes, it has got smooth flow, but it's taken from the TouchFLO 3.0 (dunno what you mean with "smooth flow In scrolling that 6.5 has", but I don't see any difference between the TF3.0 flow and the WM6.5 one).
I understand you posted a question in hopes of fixing the problem in your rom. Sorry I can't be of some help with that. The ROM sounds like a winner though and I am anxious to try. Thank you for your response and good luck fixing the issue.
I fixed it God bless XDA ;D
Anyway I'm so dumb -_- I could figure it out an day ago...
http://xdafaq.net/index.php?id=13
So, how many ppl are up for a Hybrid WM6.1 Sense 2.1 ROM? Maybe i should try to cook Sense 2.5 into WM6.1? What do you think?

Hi guys,
tell me, is it not possible to have a normal blackstone rom with the new Manila? I do not understand why there is always the wish to cram the roms. The more the roms are crammed the more bugs we get.
In the meanwhile, I am really willing to pay for it, if it is just possible to get a slim rom, with the new manila, without bugs. And, if possible, in German, but that's not that important.
I'm about to cry
The problem is that even Windows Mobile is not free of bugs. And of course the beta of the new manila isn´t free of bugs at all.
the chefs are trying to get rid of the bugs out of windows mobile or manila

The other problem is the new manila requires many other packages to run properly. And some Blackstone packages don't work with the new manila etc.
This is why you never see just a cab to install the new manilla.
Ah, I see, thank you guys for the background infos. Now, I can understand the problem better.
Well, that's really a pity. I guess, there won't be a version for the HD by HTC or do you know something about that?
I also thought of exchanging my HD with a TD2, when it comes out within the next weeks. But I don't know yet.
Another question: Do you know, where I can find the background of the new manila, so that I could at least use that!?
Thank you!
try onkolog rom's. it's bug free and it's lite. for every other progs that missing in the rom you have cab's on his post. It's the fastest rom around here also.

Well, that's the one I am using right now, but there is the rotation bug in HTC album, which, for me at least, is very annoying. The pictures do not rotate although I move the device!

It's not a bug - this is how the new album works. It actually rotates pictures, but not by g-sensor, it just fits them automatically. On the other hand, it's much faster than the previous one.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!!!!
Welcome back mate!!
What can I say... Wow...
Hi there, i tried your Rom last night and just a couple of things i noticed that seem to be popping up in a few of these cooked roms...
my Gwes.exe started around 13mb and over night jumped up to 32mb, this is from a fresh install, nothing installed and hard resetted....
Your lockscreen at first fine then eventually displayed the classic only half screen cover issue...
other then that everything worked perfect though i wish total commander was unisntallable...

yeah, I know about lockscreen Its made to skin the 230xx ++ builds withe the new 6.5 GUI (big buttons etc) it works better there, but they still have some work to do on that.
Rom is using ram/xip diffrently then most other roms, use more memory, but increase speed in many operations.

i understand that because it uses modules over .dll however the ram does rise over 32mb and eventually the system just became totally unresponsive until a softreset...

Sry for opening a thread for that, maybe it wasnt very important BUT
will it be possible to bring the X2 GUI ( very cool animated , beautiful , check out in videos on youtube if didnt watch yet) on the X1??
it looks so beautiful kind of 3d animation, should be workin on x1 doesnt it ?
as far as i know its the same processor , the same hardware.... another point to make it work on x1

Might not work mate. X2 is not HTC anymore as far as i know ...... but i might be wrong.
I pray that SE will make an WM 6.5 upgrade for the X1, and i will not need a ported rom from x2. Now i'm using a custom wm 6.5 rom and is fine. Hope to see that official rom.

Btw, there are people cooking on the X2 rom as we speak

It would be awesome if someone cooked it like the UnOff rom, 100% pure xperia stuff... unlike some roms with some weird startup screen and a completely messed up start menu with 999 items for which I've to scroll 10 times. Not complaining, but I'm a Lead Developer so I find some things could be improved using common sense. Too bad I haven't enough time to get into mobile stuff like cooking roms. May be one day I will, but for now thanks to spikegotti for giving me what I've been wanting

Totally agree with the 100% (or ~100%) clean ROM. So it would be great for every ROM release to have 2 version, one totally clean and one personalized so that users can decide according to their need.
In all thank very much for your efforts, great cooks.
hello
as i surfing other phone threads i saw many WM 6.1- MANILA 2.5 cooked rom for X1 TP2 and diamond2 and... is there any thing for Blackstone ? as in my opinion WM6.1 is much much faster than WM6.5. I almost tried all wm6.5 roms but they are buggy and slower than WM6.1.
the only one for blackstone found is Miri Wm6.1 with manila 2.5 which is fast but rather old and it is DISCONTINUED!
The problem with the buggyness is not due to win 6.5 but Manila 2.5, the problems would be at least the same with 6.1.
I suggest u try some of the win 6.5 + manila 2.1 that there are around such as miri v30, they're very fast and very stable.
xborfi said:

Guess why? Because in contradiction to your opinion, almost everybody here regards WM 6.5 as fast, more user friendly, better looking, and bugfree.
As he said: Try 6.5 with Manila 2.1, because it is 2.5 that is slowing down things with the slow Touch HD processor, not 6.5.
yes . tried those V30 and V12 also. they are acceptable but not running smooth. I think Blackstone lack of drivers for WM6.5 causes that. they freezes randomly so not good for daily uses. I almost lost some of my important information using those roms but they are good things to experience things coming future! how ever I think manila 2.5 will run better on Blackstone. now I am switched to miri WM6.1 with manila 2.5 but the version of manila used there is older manila 2.5 one which is buggy and the rom is also discontinued.
-I am also thinking of overclocking the blackstone processor as the last solution since I damaged my htc prophet one because of overclocking

Why don't you try it. I'm using her for more than a month and I'm really quite happy. And, since I don't use Facebook nor Twitter, everything is working well. I can even send a 160 crt SMS that with all the others 6.5 Rom's wasn't possible.
At least for now, this is my Rom, and will be the backup Rom if I decide to restart flashing new ones.

for sure! I am now playing with this rom. its fast and smooth. manila is working as what it should be and smooth as i saw in the demo of HD2. however since this rom is discontinued the manila is rather old 2.5 one which having some problems. how ever i am now forget about some broken things and I am happy with this rom.
is miri V3.0 the only WM6.1 and Manila 2.5 available? is there is any other please provide me with the link. thanks
i am using toopix and it's the best. i tried all 6.5 with manilla 2.1 and 2.5 and always had to come back to toopix. i just need an application that does the work of footprint and it will be perfect.

I agree with you. All WM6.5 ROM I tried are slower then WM6.1 ones.
Now I'm using Miri's WM6.1 Manila2.5 and it's fast, very fast.
I have also update some packages. The only bugs I've are: Facebook and Footprints. Also the default WM6.1 is very bad... but I'm working on it to replace with a third part action screen.

i agree, it is fast but it is rather old and have some bugs
can some one upload the ROM file and post the link here? the one on the official thread doen not have any free user download slots left.

Hey, do you mind tell me which version you are using?
I'm using miri wm6.1 + Sense 2.5. I gotta say, I love WM6.1 better than 6.5. I find the battery life is better. Also, the speed is better than 6.5. I'm not saying 6.5 is slow, just 6.1 is faster than 6.5.
hey Jakkkk, Do u have the zip/rar file of the miri's ROM with you?
i can't find any working download link for the same..
the dedicated thread is closed as well
People still use 6.1? There is a reason noone puts 2.5 on 6.1
Its so OOOOLLLLDDD. Live in the NOW! once you go kinetic you can't go back! Once you made that move the next one is clear, once you go 6.5.1 + 2.5 there is definitely no going back! Unless you don't commend appearance or usability high on your list.....then you can stick with 6.1
MAN UP, PUT UP WITH THE EXTRA FEW MILISECOND LAG WITH 6.5x ROMS AND ENJOY THE AWESOMENESS!
I am a fellow topix follower, but I love the new 6.5.1 far too much to worry that it takes a few more miliseconds to do things. BOOHOO
P.S, do you still use windows 95? Cos its ALOT faster than xp, vista, and windows 7. I use windows 7 cos it looks god damn gorgeous (and way more features lol) - catch my drift?
I get ur point.. but i still wonder why u r still on HD, i am sure there alot of newer phones out alreday. HD is so OOOOLLLLDDD!!!
anyways, everybody choose whatever they are comfortable with. I'll request you to refrain yourself from passing such remarks(n making such posts) on what others choose. Let them live in the primitive era if they wish to.. Rest its up to u.

hi, i just got my x1 a few weeks back and im looking to upgrade the rom and what i realized is it involves many more steps than what was required for my universal before?
i upgraded the official rom via the SD card method and that worked like a charm. But what i dont know is which rom can i upgrade to on my x1... as it seems that they are all based on R2... R3... etc?
so what im lookin for is a fast and simple answer on which roms i can upgrade on my x1. The method is not a problem. The rom selection is. And plus, which is the best rom you would recommend?
thankx
The best way is, imho:
Check the threads here. In each, you can find a description of the ROM,
a discussion about possible bugs and solutions, and recommendations from
the xda community.
Basically, you can flash any ROM you will find here. Some like the newest,
more "unofficial" builds of WinMo 6.5 with the Windows start menu at the
bottom, others prefer the "official" build with the menu at the top.
Again others prefer either a Windows only ROM, some Manila 2.1, some the
"latest" version 2.5, these are from the "Leo".
Almost the same applies to the radio/rilphone version.
If you have some spare time, make your own trials - start maybe with the
ROMs from agent_47, NRGZ28, spikegotti, itje, MrRusch... and soon, you
will have your very own, personal preferred solution.
thanks. another question? what is "manila"? unfimiliar with this term.

Manila is the user interface by HTC, which seems to be a favorite of many
X1 users here at xda - there are many ROMs which are cooked with it.
Version 2.5 is taken from the upcoming Leo model, while 2.1 is from other
models, such as Rhodium and Topaz - those are the closest to the X1 from
hardware specifications. One kind of a "disadvantage" in the perception of
some users in the 2.5 version is missing landscape support for virtually all
functions, while 2.1 is fully landscape.
Manila brings eye candy, but also finger friendliness to WinMo devices. You
can easily recognize it with the big digital clock at the home screen.

I'd like to point out that the 2.5 version seems to be a little heavy for the X1.
The manila 2.1 from Rhodium\Topaz have a nice look & feel to them. Also battery life is VERY good with these versions (3 to 6 days on a single charge, depending on how you use your X1). Manila 2.1 does not have the Facebook and Twitter tabs, and has different Favorite and Home screen layouts.
My advise would be to go with a manila 2.1 ROM. My personal favorit is the FireStorm Rhodium\TOPAZ by Agent_47. It's loaded with lots of extra programs, and runs very stabile.
Excelent everyday use!
FireStorm Rhodium\TOPAZ by Agent_47? will give that a try? the htc leo is the HD 2 yes? and thanks for the clarification on the manila. been a great help. Is there much difference in the manila and the touch flo 3d cab? the cab seems to be stable too... and im not a big fan of wm6.5. ive never tried it before... how much free ram is there after the update?

Manila is actually a nickname of what was called TouchFlo3D earlier, and to
complete the confusion, you will maybe read "Sense" sometimes, too. In fact,
that is again the same. Most people here use "Manila" and versions 2.1/2.5.
To install Manila with a cab is definitely quite a fast procedure, but the real
performance of your device will not be as fast as possible - even if stable.
The free RAM is different from ROM to ROM, lower WinMo "pure" ones are
somewhat around 30% memory usage, the lowest Manila ROMs are at
around 35-40% with 2.1, 45-55% with Manila 2.5 - but then again, this is
different from ROM to ROM.
In the sum, maybe a Touch X 10.8.2 or agent´s "Photon" ROM (standard)
could be a good point to start.
Once your are happy, the chef most probably will not be unhappy if you
take care of his/her donation fund...
Happy flashing!
thanks buddy uve been a great help. one last question, i have just upgraded my rom using the micro sd method. if i wanted to go back to my wm 6.1 official R3A rom which was released a lil over a week back, could i use that .nbh file to downgrade as if upgrading?
what im trying to ask is i just put the R3a rom file in my formatted sd card and load the phone in boot loader more and let the magic happen or a more complex process is required like backin up and restoring stock rom?
