OK, So I am completely new to this stuff on a consumer basis. I used to work for Symbol Technologies testing Windows Mobile 5 when it was still in alpha/beta on our products. Now, my question for you all is Which is your favorite ROM?
I have been looking around here and I have found a few, I was able to get my SIM unlocked and my SID unlocked in about 20 mins on my Cingular 8125 So Thank you all for your contributions on that
I also learned a ton of stuff about these devices that even after working with them for almost a year I didnt know.
I decided to make this poll not only for my own curiousity, but for those people who are new to this like I am and want a qucik opinion on whats best out there. If i leave something out let me know
Thanks again everyone for this forum, its awsome!
I'm sure I've left a lot out, but I put the roms on this poll that i frequently came across in reading all the posts I've hit
T-Mobile 2.26 is my favourite, but faria 3.2 is a good candidate.
Faria rom by yards! It was the first rom to really wow me since the release of mobile 2005!
according to the poll ..
anyways i've tried farias, might give it another shot but i liked Molski's rom so as soon as i saw the upgrade i wanted to give it a try. im happy with it get the job done.
Faria's !
Without the slightest hesitation !
Cheers

I think it is kind of like asking "what is the best car". I have not seen a "bad" ROM yet here, but what are you looking for - speed or features or comfort and ease or ????? - again just like a car. You will find it from any of the "wizards" (pun intended) who put the results of their efforts on here for you - most noticeably Faria, Shogunmark, Molski, Risidoro, and Summiter (WHERE IS HE??).
I must have flashed my phone 20 or more times by now, with never once having a problem - JUST FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS!! Try a few and see what you like.

Funny, I thought the same thing this morning. And I LOVE your ROM. But I've avoided being one of the 20 million people asking you to hurry up and release RC1 so now I'll use this Poll as an excuse: bring RC1 out now and you will CRUSH this poll!!!

Wow! That is amazing stuff. I knew about the drive crash, but not that you still needed info. I could reinstall Beta 4 and try the voice command deal you asked about, but I know nothing about the page pool.
Anyway, all good stuff, and your ROM is destined for greatness.
When I get online I'm always going to two websites first. That is, Myspace and XDA Developers. And after I explore those two sites, I never remember what other sites to visit.
But when I'm here, I exaust almost every forum like several times looking for something new or something to talk about. I get tired as I sign on here several times a day, looking at the same crap every time, just hoping there's a new version of Slide2Unlock, PocketCM or just some new stable Wizard ROM. AND I LOVE IT!!!
I just want to express my concern and my OCD over this place. I am totally unsatisfied of this experience and ask that you may CONTINUE WHAT YOU GUYS ARE DOING!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!
See what I mean, I can't control myself.
Great... I'm back here again... I need Xanax...
I am extermely addicted... I LOVE THIS SITE! I'm going to participate as much as possible.
Yep same here, ever since I bought my artemis and discovered this site I need to check daily the artemis threads just to see whether something great has come out. And then there is de development and hacking thread. I just can't believe how many talented people there are on this forum. It's just amazing what some guys can make and develope!
My wife is really starting to nag me about this. I should buy her a pda too

Ye u should b able to convert her over to ppc quite easily. Just find a feature she would find useful and then there's no switcing back to a regular phone after that.
Ugh! I'm getting sick of coming here every 10 minutes looking for an update to S2U2! Someone make me stop!
Have as homepage of my psp, N-DS, cell, Smartphone, Smartphone PPC, PS3, PC, Laptop, PPC PDA.
I'm Addicted. I need my fix quick.
I have to admit I'm addicted. I probably check the site about 4-5 times a day and just hang out waiting for something new to happen. Maybe we should get a chat room up and running?
I'm addicted.. I come here everytime I go on my computer and even on my phone.. because this site is really active.. people posting, updating new software and replying every minute.. maybe I'm alittle over exaggerating about the every minute part.. but this site is constantly active
i admit that i became an addictited freak too.
A thread like this was created a few years ago...
I´m also adicted for 2 main reasons:
Helping other people
Get nice ROM´s & apps for my Universal

Hi All,
Like the title reads iam a new noob on the block...got my first WM device 9 months back and it was love at first sight...I started with a Imate - JAQ and now have a Tilt. Learning how to flash was a interesting and at times a frustrating experience especially with my Asus P527 but it was a rewarding experience nonetheless since iam now a flash junkie .
Have seen a lot of people who come into this new and ask questions on the forums which often go unanswered, for those who dont understand this phenomenon let me say that the best way to learn is by yourself and doing your research before coming up with questions since anything you learn the hard way stays with you.
Next Steps: - Well i think cooking my own ROM would be a worthy journey . Also wanted to say thanks to all the great people who run this place and provide information which makes life easier for the likes for me .
Cheers and keep rocking
Prabh

Hi all first and mostly I want to apologise for not giving you a ROM, but due to recent activities here I decide to stop my work here and stop making ROMS for now.
For People who dont know already I was asked to cook for X1 and was donated a device which XMOO sent to me.
I also was working on HD AND WAS CURRENTLY TIED UP IN making a ROM FOR IT. I was also working on X1 ROM, but didnt have time between both devices and I stopped for awhile.
Since my last HD ROM ALot of stuff , issues, etc arise here on XDA and I was the main attraction, long story short ,
I given up cooking at the moment and I feel bad not making a rom for u guys, The rom I have still needs work doing and I cant support it if I release it as I have a lot of personal stuff I need taking care of.
I contacted XMOO about sending the device to him so you Guys can decide what to do with it or give it to another CHEF, ETC,
Once again my sincere apology especially for all those who believe in me and all my supporters but whats happened here has really put me off.
If there are any better advise on how to donate the device back to the community just let me know.
Thanks Dutty.
Sorry to see you go Dutty, best of luck with you and your family!
On a selfish note though, any chance you can release what you already have for the X1? Would love to try it, bugs and all, knowing that you wont be supporting it.
sorry to hear about this. this is a real loss to the community. hope you change you mind soon
any chance of convincing you to to realease your unfinished rom at least the cooks over hee can build on top of it.
oops....just noticed tjax reply
Like many others I was looking forward in trying your ROM for the X1.
With an ackward eye did I follow the stuff going on in the Blackstone forum and respect your decision to leave the forum, although it breaks my heart a bit.
Best of luck to you and your family!
Maybe we'll see you in the future....
If you could release the kitchen /sources to the X1 community, then maybe some other enterprising chef could pick up where you left off. I'm interested in learning the process behind creating a ROM but I'll be honest and say I wouldn't know where to start, even after reading some guides here on XDA-Dev.
Thanks for at least considering making a community ROM, and good luck with what you go on to do Dutty.
Goodluck to you and hopes everything turns out for the better. I know everyone was looking forward for your ROM here, and some just couldnt wait and start saying things they do not mean. All in all thanks for your effort...my suggestion regarding the X1 KEEP it until maybe one day you can bless us with your work.
The device should be sold and everyone who donated should get their money returned.
Dutty has quit. Bugger.... Might get an iphone? Gotta say, that Palm Pre looks pretty cool?
Wait for the Touch Pro 2 Clove is taking pre orders
Its a sad day and I hope to see Dutty back in XDA asap, but **** happens...
Maybe XMOO should PM everyone who donated for this, we could see together over PM's if there is someone else who we would think would benefit the X1 community so much, that we want donate the device to.
If we are talking abotu selling MAYBE I could be interested, but just maybe at this point... I would rather see it go to good use...
I was one of the donators and my suggestion is to sell the phone and donate the money to xda.
Well Im not 100% behind that... I have donated to XDA with my two usernames and will donate in the future, but this was meant to other use...
Wasn't Xmoo after a spare to do some Android work, maybe it could be used for that
Been following your work Dutty eventhough i own a Raphael.. well sad to see all the hecticness that were around. Well the best thing you could to is to take care of personal life first... xda forum will allways be here... good luck bro.. keep an eye on devs here so they don't go on wrong paths .. they might need your knowledge some times.. well anyway take care of your self first
Well Dutty all are behind you on this... about the X1 let Xmoo decide.
but i as all cooks here are very interested in your blackstone rom 1.9 and if that can be ported to X1, please please please contact me or any good chef out there and make a final contribute
that would be like, well lets call it religous
hey Dutty!
Im really sorry to hear that you're leaving. A sad day for the xda community!
I just wish you all the best and hope you'll return one day or if you're moving somewhere else let us know!
Thanks for your great roms!
So much has been said on the whole "Dutty Dilemma" (Someone should write a book about it! )
My first and last comment on it: Too bad it happened, Dutty has been wronged.
On the device, I'm not a donator, but I'd say let him keep it after all the crap.
If people strongly feel it must be sold, I'm a potential buyer.
Still hoping for Dutty to change his mind and put the X1 he got to use though.

im somewhat sure he needed one for siassambly reasons. to check hardware etc.
id rather have android on my hpone anyway but since i donated nothing ... let the donaters decide
@dutty
well to sad, ive never seen any of your roms since this is my first winmopho. but still, GL and have fun out there
The sad thing about it is that it wasn't the people on the xperia thread that were giving him so much hell. The people that donated the device to Dutty supported him the whole way. I would say at the least the people who donated the funds to get the device should get his beta rom.
Thats my last two cents
Hi,
I upgraded from the HTC Hermes, if that had GPS built in I wouldn't have changed my phone! I had the PDAcorner ROM installed which is a fantastic build.
I recently purchased the TytnII and feel let down by my purchase so I need a ROM that is fast, stable and with a fast working camera that will reinstate my confidence in this phone. I had the factory HTC ROM installed but the camera was appallingly slow at taking pictures, I currently have Dutty's 19716 build which is alot quicker but I get a lot of delays in icons appearing and a couple of the programs crash. Any suggestions would be gratefully received!
RANT--I originally posted this under the ROM Development section (which I apologize for) and recieved a snotty reply from Stylez "There are many fast stable 6.1 ROMs flash them and find the one you want. ROM Development is not for ROM requests. Thread closed." If I had time to sit there flashing roms all day I would not be posting this, I barely have enough time to do 1 which is why I am here.--END RANT

lol funny rant.. the really amusing thing is my suggestion. try "snotty" Stylez Black v.4
i've had the kaiser for well over a yr now and have tried several roms myself. although they all carry their own twist and are a work off art in so many ways. i prefer clean,stable and fast Roms over all the eye candy any day.. untill i ran in to Styles V4 and i must say i think i will be sticking around for a while.. aside from working out a few personal required wrinkles. the Rom itself is pure perfection. clean, fast, stable and beautiful in every way.
Not to mention the "snotty" stylez is extreamly active, helpful and very professional.
just my .02
GL in your quest
Very nice post. Stylez is a great guy. And a great chef

Lol!! Well if it works then he is forgiven! I will flash it today, thanks. These are the polite, friendly replies I expect
Glad we could spend " our useless time " helping , since you won't spend " your precious time " reading searching as per forum rules. Which the " snotty " stylez, as a moderator, points out to keep our rom development forum focused on new roms and does not become an " I am too lazy to help myself, so everybody rally around and help me....help me.......help me.... section.[ END RANT]

WHAT?!?!? At no point did I state "useless time", I have respect for everyone in this forum and the hard work they put in. My request was for help and I thought the reply I received could have been more polite. I'm not one of these people who just post a question without doing some ground work first, I understand that there are users that do this and it is frustrating. I had been through a couple of roms and as I depend on my phone alot (quite sad really!), was desperate to get my Tytn II up to scratch like my Hermes. I have very little time in the evenings at the moment, due to my 18 month daughter amongst over things, to do this which is why I posted asking for suggestions - not because I am lazy. My rant was nothing personal against Stylez, I have flashed his rom on my phone and it runs great. So:
- I posted in the wrong forum, a lapse in concentration due to lack of sleep caused by aforementioned daughter - which I am sorry for.
- Stylez, if you have read any of this I hope that there are no hard feelings.
- Sorry that this reply is so long, I wanted to set the record straight!
