it may sound silly

i have been reading loads and loads on this excellent forum and i have learned so much about unlocking and flashing hard and soft for my kaiser and also about the radio and the problems i can run into and their fixes.
here is the silly question
what rom software should i flash to my phone?
i have read about some of the roms available but i cant see many differances between then because as i can see they are all debranded firmware roms and all that i can see is that some have different applications allready implimented in them, so does it really matter which rom i use or should i just use the newest?
thanks for any suggestions or help in reguards to this

It is very hard to tell someone to use a particular ROM, because each person expects different things out of their phone. The best thing to do is read about each ROM, read the ROM's thread to find out what the Chef has put into their ROM....then pick one and flash away....trying is the only way to find out what is best for you.
Hope that this helps..

i thaught that would be the answer i would get lol but thanks anyway.
does repeatedly reflashing the rom to try the software affect the phone in any bad way at all or is it safe to go ahead and try a few?

I currently have Stylez Black version 2. I just flashed Version 2 last Friday. It is working wonderfully. I had Version 1, since it's release.
Stylez is new to cooking for Kaiser, but he has cooked for Dash. He is also helped other Chefs with their builds.

I have flashed my phone hundreds of times in the last year and a half, with no ill effects. I personally think that all the hard resets associated with flashing have kept my phone clean and running at top form.
Since most roms are cooked using the same basic kitchens and from the same M$ builds, the basic structure is the same. Some cooks cook for stability, some for speed, some for super storage and some to just constantly push the limit of possibilities.
After a while, flashing will be like changing themes. Look at them all and find one that suits you needs and flash away, you can always change it if you want more or less in a rom.

Help Im confused

This forum is confusing...i need to update my rom to whatever is the latest. Using SE update service it says i have the latest software but i doubt it!. Im with tmobile if that helps.

You need to do search my friend. Whatever your question is, try to search and you will find the answer.
In your case, if you like to flash your device to windows 6.5, you'll first need to do HardSPL. You can find the "how to" in this thread and this thread.
Then, you can choose and download any ROM you like. There are plenty of choices.
Just follow the instruction to flash the ROM....I think every instruction is clearly enough to understand.

I did search and i downloaded the hardSPL program but I didnt use it because it was going to download an older rom than the one i have right now.
How do you guys know which ROM to use? I just want the latest one.

I guess ill do a mini mini mani mo and pick one. thanks!
Oh one more question, so why is the Hard SPL trying to revert my current rom to an old one. Is that what I have to do?

before flash any custom ROM you have to do hard-spl JUST ONCE THOUGH, have fun

hey!
1. you got the latest update for your ROM from SE. that means you are on a "official ROM" or "stock" ROM.
it's suppose to be running on windows mobile 6.1.
2. there is NO "official" 6.5 ROM for the X1 (yet)
3. when you see ROMs saying they are running on 6.5 they are called "custom" ROMs.
custom roms, as the word suggests, are customized by great chefs here on xda to maximize the capabilities of X1 and windows mobile,
that includes the latest updates either from SE or windows (or HTC)
4. there are also 6.1 custom roms
5. the date any custom rom is released suggests it is the latest.
6. there are different "cooks" who may release the same build/update
my suggestion:
try each rom one at a time. sooner or later you'll find one that will suit your taste.
(i think this is the norm here on xda ). and imho, this is how it should be.
if you want the latest agent_47 will not fail you. he's almost always has the latest updates.
if you want a simple & stable rom go for jack's. (with multi-language support)
for pure X1 & wm, look for spikegotti's rom or gtrab's
later you can try itje's, rotastrain's, killer8nl's, etc which are all great.
i hope that clears your confusion. enjoy!
be sure to hard-spl first.

aww you guys are so helpful. thanks im sorry but i will be sending you a PM if i need help. lol

Best Rom For Touch Pro 2 ?

Hey guys me and my friend were playing around with his touch pro 2 we cant find a good rom... either 6.5 lags or 6.1 rom doesnt have many functions or yet it is still lagging
I was also wondering where I can find the stock rom touch pro 2 just in case
thanks

(sigh) Really? First of all your thread has been posted a million times before, locked and removed. The newer ROMs with the 21892 build is very fast and stable. I dont know what you mean by "functions" but you can install anything via a CAB to customize it yourself. What ROMs have you tried?
There is also threads that just have the stock ROM for warranty return. You will have to use this great invention called the SEARCH button to find it.
If they ROMs are not good enough for you maybe you should stick to the stock ROM. I am sick of people *****ing about how ROMs are not good for them, but ask yourself this question," What have I done to HELP chefs and the community?".

No as of right now it's not possible. I'm sure there's someone working on it since the HD2 is its predecessor and they both use the same chipset and are very similar in hardware, so there maybe a possibility in the future.

Really!?! WP7 has come along way since it's release and we will continue to see development on our device...windows 7.8 is just around the corner and so is windows 8.
Have you unlocked your HD7 and flashed a custom rom so that you can tweak and modify it?
I'm not sure when it will be released.. It took alot of time and work to get the HD2 to be able to duel boot and run Android on it.
If you can't wait and really don't like WP7 OS that much, then I would suggest to get the HTC Desire HD, which is basically the same device as the HD7 but runs Android OS or get the HTC HD2.

For the developer unlock program without the student ID, you would have to purchase it at like $99.00 for a years use and since you don't have a credit card that's probably not an option then.
To install XAP files your device does need to be unlocked to allow side loading of apps.
Flashing of a custom rom means to wipe and replace the factory OEM rom with a new custom rom that has been developed/created for our device specifically. There are many available that fully unlock our devices and allow for customization through registry tweaks and hacks, installation of XAP's and so forth.
Here's a couple of great custom roms for our HD7. Look them over and decide for yourself which one is best suited for you. There's more custom roms available also in the HD7 development section. I would suggest one that is running the Tango 8779 build as these will have the most features like export of contacts to SIM card, sending ringtones through SMS and so on.
Intrinsic rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1281482
Deepshining rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1271118
Nextgen rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1348710
To accomplish the installation of a custom rom though...you will have to follow Shadows excellent tutorial, step by step by downgrading you spl, flashing a non test, nodo or pre-nodo rom, Install rspl or hspl and then flash a custom rom. You have to follow all the steps or you can damage your device and brick it! If you need any help with it just let me know. Here a link to Shadows tutorial:

It depends on what your bootloader and spl are.
Put your device into bootloader mode by powering off the device. Hold down the volume key and power the device back on while continuing to hold down the volume key. This will bring you into bootloader mode a tri-colored screen. Copy down the information from the BL screen and post it back and I'll tell the next best step to go in.

Ok. Well then you'll have to use the goldcard/ Y cable method. Unless you have a pre-mango back up in Zune. Meaning you updated your device to mango OS version and if so you still have the computer that you used to do it on.

Why in the first place you bought a WP7 device? I bought it because I don't like android very much, I don't despise it (that honor goes to the CrApple FailOS)
If you wanted Android, you should have bought any droid device, and you'll be happy.
Now, if you want android because of the "curiosity" or "experimentation"... Why you bought the HD7? the honor of running any Android version is for the Immortal HTC HD2.
Maybe you thought or somebody told you, that the HD7 has the same hardware as the HD2, which is true, the only problem and difference is the Windows Phone Bootloader.
The Bootloader, my friend is the one and only reason we can't have Android on any WP device... This answer has been repeated on these android threads a LOT.
If you want android so badly, sell the HD7 and get any Samsung, HTC, LG or whatever device fits your needs.

No hard feelings brother
It's just out of my curiosity. I don't own this phone myself, though I do play around with phones, sometimes voluntarily and sometimes I'm paid to do so
One of my friends just exchanged his China-made Android phone with this one. Having known, and played with legendary HD2, I was wandering if people flashed it with droids already. And it seems like its not taken any step further towards the Androids
I should dig in further to see what others have achieved and what I can do, if I can get hold of the phone longer, though
I see xdrc45 and vivek555666 were heating this hard-ironed phone, what happened further.....
Lets all see, nothing is impossible, as they say

Marshmallow ROMs?

Hi guys, I recently unlocked the recovery of my phone after the warranty ended.
I really don't feel the need to change the rom because I really like my stock Sense rom, the only rom I would like to try is one with the new Android Marshmallow. Are there any Marshmallow roms already for our phone?
Thanks,
Andrea

This was already asked a few days ago so I'll simply answer the same thing:
Android 6.0 isn't even fully deployed to nexus devices yet, you'll have to be much more patient . We will probably see 6.0 CM or AOSP roms relatively soon. I'm not expecting any 6.0 rom based on HTC Sense UI. CM13 development started about 10 18 days ago btw.

You can easily find that there isn't any 6.0 roms yet by visiting the One (M7) Android Development and the One (M7) Original Android Development sections of this forum. When there will be one available, its will probably be really easy to find in these sections :good:

Okay thanks bro

As you can search on XDA. Now there are plenty of cm13 unofficial roms for the htc one m7 that bring marshmallow. Sadly I haven't seen any that are based on sense, however, there are many ways to get CM to look like htc-sense if that helps. Do note that the roms have bugs. Yes I have run the custom roms and find them to be very stable but couple of bugs such as FC when taking picture and phone rebooting when plugging in headphones really annoy me because i like to listen to music and take a lot of pictures.
