Hi, I just now got my fist HTC Diamond 2(topaz). It is my first windows mobile phone and I was really excited about upgrading to 6.5, but it is not coming out any soon . However I am little confused how to do that. So can you tell which rom should I use for my HTC topaz. Please step by step... thx... Would prefer most stable Rom,
Is there also dictionary somewhere.. I don't know what all these words me... cooked...radio.. and so on..
(I googled but roms come out very fast.... and couldn't find any good tutorials..)

....first install HardSLP!
....second:
Radio Rom: resposible for gsm signal, wifi...
...third:
Cooked Roms:
Our Chiefs are always cooking roms with the newest applications and share them to us.
In the benchmark you can see which rom is the fastest. But I woud suggest you just try them out!
Are you 100 % sure that as a newbie you really need to flash new rom first? Why not to get to know your device a bit before making any changes?

well maybe I will use 6.1 for a month then switch to 6.5..
thx.. helped a lot
probably in september we will see new phones with wm6.5, I've read about it in czech forum today (official information from czech office of microsoft)
hi
for ur info we have to my knowledge 4 Rom ches
1. our great tommy34 whos giving us some great ROms(thank god we still have him
2.Ironegle very sad hes upgraded to Iphone 3G
but hes left us giving us the kitchen hes used for his great Roms
3. JadeMan hes just missing dont know if he has upgraded or what
4. Me - cant really put mere here im just a provider of the Pdaviet ROM
thats something any one can do right if not me some one else right
5.RURU - i dont know were he is now
so what we badly need is some new cooks to give us some new ROms
well me im not a techi and im getting too confused in using the kitchen
see below the link were ironegle has given his kitchen
and i suffer from this Craze to flash new Roms( my coined word for this Flashomania ) im sure their are a lot more like me
So i humbly request to any one whos got the skills pls pls cook some ROms so as to satisfy my and others Flashomania
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524102
hmm maybe anybody could port that system version:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544445
with this instruction:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4215191&postcount=10
to ironeagle's kitchen?
Seems not to complicated but at the moment i haven't the time to try
OK, i've tried to get into the kitchen from ironegle, but its too complicated for me....
second that. tried too, was able to build his old 23001 version (didn't try to flash tho, hehe). downloaded MEGA pack from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541625 and checked. the files should be merged with the EXT folder, but the file structure is different. example:
MEGA pack folders:
PACKAGE_MEGA_2DManila
PACKAGE_MEGA_2DManila_0409
...
kitchen folders (EXT\Jade\20771\Jade_External_Packages)
2DManila_1_20_19131530_00\0409
2DManila_1_20_19131530_00\files
...
even if they are probably just needed to be copied in there, I still dunno if there's some registry file to edit. also dunno how to upgrade from the old XIP(?) 23001 to a newer one (too many files/dirs) and even if it builds successfully, I wd be just too scared to try that self-cooked stuff myself!
just takes too much time this s**t and I am already wasting enough..
so, I'd love to see some old cooks helping or new cooks coming over to bring some of the new goodies to us poor little Jade owners. or we all need to buy a new HTC phone asap!

this was also what i was thinking, i own a touch pro but my wife owns a jade and i was thinking of buying her a new phone or il cook some roms for her...
i dont have rom cooking background but ive been reading recently and who knows maybe this reading could help me cook roms for the jade....
though im scared to try what i have cooked, is there anyway i can check the rom without actually flashing it?
cooked a beta rom
guys, i have cooked a beta rom, i dont know yet if its working but i used iron eagles kitchen.....
its xip 23028 sys 23028 wm6.5
ext packages included are merely of the 23001 build of ironeagle, if the beta rom is running then il try updating the packages to the mega one with the new tf2d....
as of now im scared to flash it, anyone who wants to be a beta tester?
disclaimer: i am not responsible to whatever happens to ur phone, flash at own risk
note:
i havent actually flashed it on a phone...
if u can beta test, id really appreciate it.... il start a thread on it... later on, thanks ang more power
hi buddy
its great that u have taken the step i realy apreciate this great try by u but all rom cooks first try it on their phone and then on finding out its ok they release the same no offense if ur not willing to try ur creation tell me who will be willing to take the risk
infact even the Pdaviet Roms i just provide i try to use them first and then give the link to the others

isnt it impossible to destroy the phone with a rom? i mean you always get into bootloader mode and can flash a new one, right?
i dont own the device
but i can try cooking a few ROMs for jade
but i will need a few brave guys to test them out as i cant do it myself
anyone interested in being a guinea pig??
if its fine then you can PM me with what builds etc you need and what apps you want and we can work along
@sheennick
hi
i can see that u do have the expertise in cooking as i see that u have given a few Roms
why not cook one for jade and post it here recent build is 22017
thanks a lot for cumming forward to help us that's very nice of u

well it would be easier if i own a jade but unfortunately its my wife's and she doesnt have a backup phone so i really cant mess with her phone....
and also, i am not fond of flashing via bootloader, so if i mess thngs up, i dunno how and am not excited usng the method...
so i was guessing if someone with expertise in flashing via bootloader, he/she could give it a try snce he/she wont brick the phone coz its a jade rom...

Hi all...
All of you have to wait, I'm working on it but too many fixes our Jade needs for using the last 23028 Build.
In this very stable and fast build, Microsoft implement the new "look&feel" for WM 6.5.1, a more user frendly GUI. (so many new bug-fixes for the chefs right now)
And also, all we need a 6.5 Native Kernel for Jade, just for better performance...
Currently I'm using a 6.5 build 23016 ultra fast & stable ROM (0410 ITA Language), no known bugs, but I really wanna use the last build and feature of WM.
After more than one year Manila 2D sucks now, I need something new for my PDA.
And about the Mega OEM, let me say is not so easy, I'm working on it too!!
So, in my opinion you have to wait, be patient, have no sense ask for the last new build available today, you know what I mean: MANY BUGS, A LOT OF PROBLEMS IN THE HTC JADE CUSTOMIZATION, so bad using our Jade in this way !!!!
Anyway, I'm cooking and cooking and cooking.... I'll let you know, providing you a new rom ASAP!
Bye,
SJ

hey guys!
ik got a htc diamond and i want to install the new windows 6.5 on it. There are many versions of windows 6.5 i see in the rom development thread.
my question is, which one do you think is best?
thank you!
shhhh you get shouted at if you ask that question because everyone ends up fighting lol
The best i can suggest is read the description for each rom, each cook offers you diffrent things, most of us flash atleast 2 or 3 diff roms a week so try some you will soon find one you like
Hey guys, just have a quick question. I was curious if dialers that were made for windows mobile 6.5 would work on my 6.1 xperia device?
I found some amazing dialers on this thread, but I don't flash my device, nor do I have a backup of it. Thus, I'm a little nervous to try.
I was hoping someone knew if those dialers would work on my phone, or if anyone was willing to try one for me?
Well, in answer to my own question: Yes, these 6.5 dialers work on the regular Xperia X1 running WM6.1.
Just for dramatic effect, here is the one I've been stuck with for 6 months (do any of you actually like this?):
And here is what I have now, thanks to dirk in the thread linked above!
I highly recommend that you guys give these a try. They are great. (Obviously, don't try the themes, as they are for 6.5, and won't work. Dialers are different.)
Dude, I highly recommend that you try flashing some new 6.5 ROMs!! They are GREAT!!!!

Hi
Could you provide a way to fully change the existing ROM presently on my x1 wm6.1 to 6.5.
A step by step wouldbe great and the links on how to do so.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497511, is a good resource to understand the steps you take when flashing ROMs.
Hello people! I wish to install a Windows Mobile 6.5 rom on my HD. But have failed to find any stock ROM for the HD. i want to install only stock. Has there never been a release of WM 6.5 by HTC for the HD? Will there ever be?
Im sorry if Im repeating a pre existent thread but trust me I did use the search feature and didnt find a thread talking about this particular issue.
Experts please help. THANKS heavily in advance.

There's no Stock WM6.5 for Touch HD. WM6.5 ROM in this xda is non official ROM. if you want stock ROM, please install WM6.1 for HD. it is official released by HTC
That is sad. But then if I have to install a custom 6.5 rom, wont that make my device unstable? Would it make it slower than now? Custom roms arent stable enough is what I know.

it's not a stability problem!
even WM 6.1 custom non official ROMs are stabler and speeder than WM 6.5 ones...
it's a kernel problem!!
The one used in WM 6.5 custom ROMs is unofficial...and not made by HTC...and that's what made WM 6.5 a little bit slower than WM 6.1...
but (expecially COM2 builds) are stable as well as WM 6.1...just slower (not dued to cooker inexperience but) because HTC didn't develop a 6.5 kernel for our blackstone...
Thanks Kenia for this wonderful rom uv made. I am going through your forum pages currently reading about your rom. It really is awesome work!
By the way, is there a way to install titanium screen and WM 6.5 lock screen on top of stock 6.1 rom?
nope, for titanium and the new lockscreen you will have to install WM 6.5.
There might be some WM 6.5 lockscreen look-a-likes for WM 6.1, but as far as i know it's not possible to have titanium on wm 6.1. Technically it is possible, but a lot of things would have to be modded (which is a looooooot of work) in order to get it to work on WM 6.1

Titanium requires some stuff from system core of WM 6.5...just like the honeycomb start menu...
so it's impossible to port it...
as regards the lockscreen you can have it through the marvelous Co0kie's Home Tab which ebodies this feature...
and you can choose between WM 6.5, HD Mini and iphone-like lockscreen...
Anyway thanks to all for the compliments..

I got the perfect thing for you
You should try Miniterrors Ravage ROM it's in dutch or in WWE.
It is the fastest STOCK 6.5 rom out here on XDA.
You should download the WWE Clean without (or with) HTC Messaging.
It's fast, low battery drainage and it is stock!
Hope it helps!

please flash first n let us know the feedback. you cannot ask anybody to act on behalf of you. different person, different opinion. try Cloudy 1.9 with or without HTC Messaging... it works perfect for me.
I never presumed anyone to act on my behalf. Because I am only asking for opinions from experts who have run it before on their Blackstones. I have never flashed a custom rom hence probably just a little apprehensive.

There are a lots of roms here, the best way to find what you want its to try, use another phone and take a week to try the diferent roms around here.
If we all like the same, we didn't have a lot of roms around here, see what roms have good feedback, see if you like the style or the coocked app in it and flash.
A stable coocked rom its allways better then stock.
