Hi i currently own a TILT, and i flashed the HTC OEM rom, but, im sure there is a better built more functional ROM out there, what do you guys recomend?
the tools i really really need other than the phone, is: Tasks, calendar and tomtom.
any comments will be appreciated.
thanks
If you've already flashed the HTC rom I assume you have hardSPL - if not, flash that next.
As for Roms - it's up to you. If you don't need many apps or plugins then go for a lite ROM (Dutty, Alex, Q-mobile etc). If you need more of the WM6 functions and apps go for a full Rom (Sleuth, Dutty, Schapps etc).
When you start flashing, don't forget to read the sticky about which radio works with which rom (bigger isn't always best).
Other than that, no one will really tell you which is the best rom - that depends on what you want and how you use the phone.
thanks for the info,
is there like a list of all the ROM's and what it contains?

Have used TLR 2 and 3, both very good ROMS but am currently using SwiftBL WWE Diamond ROM V4.0, the ROM is very quick, up to date and give you plenty of free storage and memory left after installation which is what persuaded me to change to it.
All the ROMS here are very good, some more customized than others so you either look through the different threads and compare the differences or try every ROM and see which one suits you
Stock 1.93
Mainly to destroy the ugly t-mobile pink theme. And oh yeah, touchlflo3d works significantly faster than 1.37.
Desperately needed help. Am thinking to change to Omnia, can't bear to part Dia.
Hi Bro Radeon, (had PM'ed you too)
Sorry to ask for help like this, as I had tried reading through, but I really got more and more confused.
I got only next 2 days to give my diamond a last try.
Till now I still can't truely understand what is Hard SPL, I tot all Diamond should have.
I look at your selection, it is very much what I hope to have, but can I know exactly how you get there.
SPL - OliNex 1.40 Developer Edition
ROM - SwiftBL WWE Diamond ROM v4.0 (1.93.405.1)
Radio - 1.00.25.05
After flashing, if things goes through, how I revert back to original factory default, so that warranty and resale is not a problem.
Infor about my device is as follows,
Red Screen:
DIAM100 64M
SPL-1.35.0000
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
Green Screen:
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0.x30
Blue Screen:
White Screen:
Serial
Device Information
ROM version: 1.35.871.5 WWE
ROM date: 06/06/08
Radio Version: 0.93.25.NS26
Protocol version: 52.26.25.09W
Desperately looking for help, sorry for being so novice about flashing, kindly of phobia, perhaps is generation gap I supposed.
Ke Pin.
Take a screwdriver and dismount the screen, the Rom version is placed behind.
If you can't find it here, go to "Parameters/system/Device info" and you'll find it, it should be a better and safer way...
Cheers

I'm using bepe's 0.95 german Basic ROM (1.93 ROM). It's damn fast, stable and most of all very clean (130MB free storage).

Yeah using the UK updated rom version 1.93.405.1 (RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_1.93.405.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe) from HTC with updated Radio (.5) which is supposed to give better coverage and battery. Coverage went up by about one bar for me to total of 2 on 3G..
Phone is MUCH better with this ROM than the Orange one. Touchflo much snappier, phone faster. I did do the tweaks from Schaps advanced configuration tool and the TouchFlo3D config Tool.
Dont seem to have any memory leaks like others have reported even when using Opera.
Rom is on Duttys site http://duttythroy.net/
The Orange voicemail indicator works 100% with this ROM too and TomTom 7 works with around 7 satellites I got (TT7 NOT in ROM) !
Hasnt locked up once since flashing unlike Orange one. Im sure it will but been better than before so far
At the risk of sound like a super-noob, if you flash over the UK orange ROM with another one do you then loose things like the data-settings and other phone-settings you have to then re-input?

A new rom will detect your network and re-set all data settings.

from the polls most ppl are still using the stock 1.37 eh...
i heard the cooked roms are great.. and i do love the aestheticity of minimalism that most cooked roms offer.. great job
but i guess after tinkering so long with 1.37.. kinda tedious (and also lazy) to reflash the rom and do up everything again... i dun suppose we can port over everything after i reflash by using porgrams like Sprite backup since we are on a different rom..
My signature tells enough, though I am surprised to see so many 1.37 Stock rom's.
Probably the same people who mention about hot batteries , what hard SPL to use etc .
Honestly, each 1.93. 831 build is OK and better than the 1.37 , and some have more or less bugs & tweaks inside.
I currently use Dutty 1.1lite as it has the latest builds onboard and plenty of space.
I have a T-Mobile Compact IV and the original ROM is 1.37.110.3 WWE. Can anyone point put any cooked ROM's that will write over my original ROM.
I have already flashed to SPL-1.40.Olinex and changed radio to 1.00.25.05 (Don't see much difference). My Protocol Version is 52.29.25.12U
Any advice is greatly appreciated as I cannot find any ROM's for my original configuration.
Cheers.
i'm pretty pleased with panosha's efforts.

yes flashed the new one today...it's VERY good
They are all good. - Perhaps a little different!
Check them all out for the one that suits you (sir)
Cheers Lads, thaks for the help.
I only asked the question as I thought only certain cooked ROM's worked with certain original ROM's. I had seen mention of other ROM's but never seen my 1.37.110.3 WWE.
Thanks again.
100% Choose Swiftblades V6.0 Rom`
Hi there
I have the TMobile MDA Compact IV and realised the OEM Rom was very very laggy. I didnt like the pink and white so decided to install a cooked rom.
I have tried them all on this site and without the shadow of a doubt,
"SWIFTBLADE" V6.0 rom is 'THE BEST'
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408109
(thats the link to the ROM - I recommend the FULL version.
Its lightening fast and so so stable. I havent had to soft reset my device since getting rid of the stock TMobile Rom and I heavily abuse it every day!!!!
Its so close to the HTC 1.93 stock rom but has the best performance tweaks installed. What I liked the best about Swift's rom is that the things he took out of the 1.93 rom, you can install as provided cabs, so he has left the rom pretty much to the individual taste of the end user.
Dont waste your time with the rest, Install Swift's Rom and know you have the BEST of the BEST!!
Good Luck.
Geoff (UK)
I also have Panosha's ROM (my first) and i can say it is undoubtly fast, but i am definately going to try more ROMs to see if there are are 'better' ones!

In my book it has to be between Shine on (panosha) and Belite (bepe). to me these two cheifs are the heavy weights on xda...!
I got my MDA IV the day they were released and flashed it straight away. I've tried nearly all ROMS available via this forum and have settled on Dutty's. Currently at version 1.8 and can highly recommend it.
I prefer it over others down to some neat little touches, one being the icon spacing. He has them 3 to a row vice 4 on most (including stock) meaning that when on the move you hit the one you want first time.
I suppose it comes down to what you feel good with and whether or not a certain cook removes or keeps in what you feel you want on your phone.

You can do this either by using the common tweak tools or directly in the registry...
I also tried several ROMS but finally got stucked to panoshas ROM. It is fast and slim. It also contains the latest OS and apps.
I am waiting for Bepes 1.0 Final...
Gonna give it a try because it will be in my language
Hi all,
I have a AT&T Tilt with radio 1.27.12.11 as default. I followed the instructions on how to unlock and install custom ROMS on the phone. I have installed dutty's rom for now.
I found this video:

If you jump to 3 minutes in, does anyone know what ROM this is to get this interface? I would like this interface. The video author does not seem to mention it
Thanks!

Pretty much all new ROMs contain M2D take a look @ the Kaiser ROM Development and read the first page of the ROM thread then if your going to flash read more so you can know how to solve any issues that may have already been covered.
try to avoid the 6.5 hybrids due to some bugs between outlook/exchange that haven't been resolved yet. If you don't need email access then I recommend AthineOS's newest M2D release a couple days ago, Fast and stable with that 1 minor exception. I see this bug in other 6.5 releases.
you can always search out the manilla2d thread in the general forum I believe it is.. I am using a Kaiser rom by -G- that did not come with it preinstalled so I Was able to choose my interface & set it up myself using the v22 m2d instead of the v18 that most of the roms still contain.. I Dont think you even need to flash your rom to add m2d if you just install the cabs, someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I believe manilla2d is just a kick anus today screen plug in..
Hello everyone in the Blackstone thread.
Since I bought my Touch HD I always wanted the defice to perform as best as possible. During the last year I have tried many many ROMs and I have to say - none was bugfree (found one almost perfect - for me . Some bugs could be easily left forgotten as these weren't anyhow cruical.
But some were just heavily noticeable. These were from the WM6.5 world - generally.
After starting to look on the stability and performace, I have realized WM6.1 is still the best system for Touch HD - very fast, no unneeded options, great response.
I am looking right now for the latest WM6.1 ROM with latest HTC Sense 2.1. Or preferably for someone who is still cooking in WM6.1 world for Touch HD. Unfortunately I cannot find one (Dutty's v4.3 FINAL is a little bit outdated, and that's the latest one I have found ;/ ).
Anyone knows about such person?
If not I am going to try my best to cook such ROM, so I would appreciate any comments if there would be anyone interested and/or anyone willing to help me to reach the point. I am avaliable to spend as much time as possible to get this done.
Please leave a comment if you find this interesting for you.

i know raptordin is doing that
w6.1 whit sense2.1
he said he is almost finished
so wait a little more he will post his rom
Look at the Topix thread, Kwbr has been cooking 6.1 roms for quite some time. His 3.1.2 rom is supposedly bugfree!
I'm not sure if he's gonna update it anytime soon though.
I have to agree after months of rom flashing with manila 2.5. wm6.5 and 6.5.1...I did an official rom flash and had a play with the old 6.1 and wow it was fast and highly responsive.
so yes I would also be interested in a 6.1 kitchen with manila 2.1
where do we find one
btw almost forgot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547278
it is discontineud and dont know where it is to the things from now but its 6.1 whit sense2.5
its sayd its usable for every day you could always test till the 6.1 whit 2.1 is out
Sorry, don't want Sense 2.5 (very slow on HD), only 2.1 - it's enough for me.
But thanks for recommendation
i think the final version of topix wm6.1 is what youre looking for.

Sorry but KWBR will not be updating his 6.1 version anymore he has moved to 6.5 and has sold his HD.
I constantly keep coming back to this KWBR 3.1.2 rom
So fast, so reliable and so much more suited to our Touch HD's
I can simply use my device as it was intended, quickly take a picture, quickly review it, phone works, sms sends, review ballistically fast, all software just runs, soft reset is extremely fast, wifi connects without fail, background all tabs is simple, loads of themes....
But occasionally I miss the glossy Manila 2.5 with all its fluffy weather animations, but not a lot
If I could find a Kitchen for the latest 6.1 I would start learning to chef myself
here is a kitchen with WM 6.1 and Sense 2.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=561056
unfortunately (for you) it's in ITA
Look on my signature...
Which kitchen?
OK, it seems I am going to build my own ROM. I would like to try to use some cooked ROMs as the base and continue from this point. Anyone knows how to proceed?
I have downloaded few kitchens already (jCEspi's, Ervius, osKitchen, PPCkitchen...) but having problems to use them properly. I haven't found any detailed howto yet, only some basics from the thread or attached readme files. So far "try-fail" style doesn't get me anywhere.
I would appreciate any help with some good howtos.
Thanks,
Gabriel

It maybe of help in getting started. Not sure if it contains a 6.1 Kitchen but Kwbr has compiled what would appear to be a great tutorial on how to cook.
kwbr tutorial isn't needed.
Basically all that is needed to cook - decompile ROM and compile it back (imgfstools, search in dev&hhack).
Kitchens is sometimes more pain than help for novice cook.
Cool, will get through these, thanks.
