the title says it all.
honestly i think they're all the same. I have the Qtek rom thinking about switch back to the Exec so I can put my Exec apps back on. some people say there is a speed increase but really it's just because you wiped your device and installed a new rom. just like computers a slow computer will become fast after format and reinstalling.
what i'd like to see if a list of fixes and changes that a new ROM has.
I am using the imate. It is faster than the 02. less battery usage and better for bluetooth connections

Doesn't putting a non o2 ROM on your Exec void the warrranty?
Yes, it does void it as far as I know.

Now that's definitely not the case.
Want A2DP/AVRCP/Push Email NOW instead of waiting for O2 to get off their butts?
Use the QTEK ROM that has those.
HI

it is not in the ftp

Can users of both roms (the Imate Jasjar or Ivan) care to comment on which rom is better? I am running the Ivan beta13 and want to know whether it makes sense to switch.
Thanks.

On my mda pro, ivan's beta 13 works very good. the imate rom does not work so good, it is slow and sometimes my device freezes.

I'v tried Ivan's beta 8, 10, 12, 13, and both roms from Jwrightmcps; on my qtek9000 Jwrightmcps's Jasjar rom works definitively better.
Hi Xanadu, could you please more specific on where you see as better? Just a general comment on "better" does not really help me to decide... Thanks.
Hi stanip !
Try both ROMs and you will see which ROM works better on YOUR Universal.
That's the best way to make a decision...
Understand your point re testing it out.
Each rom update took me a fair bit of time (2-3 hours) as I need to reinstall about 10 softwares to my Universal and I need to reenter all the password, settings...etc.
Getting tired of keeping on refreshing... Hope to leverage the experience of other forumers.
Thanks.
My own experience...
I have not used Jwrightmcps's as much (just started playing with it in the last couple of days), but it seams better overall for me. I'm using a MDA Pro on T-Mobile.
It also seams quicker. It's all very subjective at the moment. Biggist factor is probably simply that I have not 'fully loaded' it with tonnes of apps yet.
Things I've noticed which I don't think would be effected by all teh apps being installed.
For Jwrightmcps's :
It does not freeze/loose signal with phone like it did with Ivan's Beta 13. But then I have also switched to Radio 1.11. I don't tink this is the reason though (old radio was fine prior to AKU3.2)
The camera software does not have as much noise on the Screen.
I don't like the Battery Icon on Today screen at the bottom. It shows full till battery is down to around 60%.
Love having USB Drive mode
Laptop finds more BT Profiles.
I'm hoping the competition drives both forward. But since nobody is actually being paid to do anything, don't see why it should. Many thanks to both for all the efforts they are making.

I agree with Zuber, plus I need smartdialer for my 1200 contact, but Ivan's beta 13 rom don't have smartdialer; as I installed it separetely, it took 6 MB RAM.
Sure, the best way is testing both then you can decide....
Jwrightmcps's has more thing than I-Van's but sometime It freezes

Can you receive MMS with the new MMS Composer included? Would you mind sending yourself one and confirming you can receive and download it?
Hi,
You guy's have to bear with me...
I am waiting for my MDA Pro. It is a german model, so when it arrives I want to get a portuguese or english firmware on it.
So far so good.
What I would love to know is which ROM-releases are considered the best, with "best" meaning:
- every aspect of the device works
- the software is stable
- good speed
- less battery consumption
Which ROM would you guy's recommend?
I don't care that much about good looks and "state of the art". What I want is a working device. It should work fine with my bluetooth carkit and my bluetooth GPS-receiver. I do make much use of WLAN as well.
Thanks,
vma

If it's in that order (with almost complete stability), stick to the manufacturer's ROM. Alternatively, I find Jwright's 2.02 almost perfect and use my uni for the same things as you. Read the thread on his ROM before you dive in, though.
Most stable firmware!
This is the most stable fimware for me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298020
I have also tested all other ROM's and some times it freezes or it's slower or some programms cannot run.
Helmi's ROM is also an good option, but I have problems with my bluetooth Parrot 3200 LS-Color carkit.
Since I have installed it (a week ago), all my problems are fixed!!!
No freeze, verry fast, my own language, all programs work.
It is PERFECT.....
So i can recommand the DarkForce ROM for Qtek 9000.
Regards,
**** Zevenbergen
I think jwrights ROM 2.02 is the most stable one i have ever used .
Thanks!
vma
I'm using Helmi's AKU3.3 ROM 2.50.00 and for last is the one that is working the best for me so far. I tried AKU 3.5 but with the issue of the speed dial made me stay away from it.
But maybe soon I will be trying upgrading to WM6... just need to be sure it's behaving at least as good as the one I have now

Well mine is best... As in the one I made in the kitchen; well it suites MY needs
Seriously, you will never know by just asking on here, people have come to metaphorical blows over which ROM is best.
It really does seem to come down to factors like what you use it for and how you use it, there are too many variables and what is good for me may not be for you.
I wouldn't even say that the official ROM you get with your device is the best for stability; I found the O2 Exec ROM was painfully slow and constantly requiring a reset.
i need ROM WM5 stable one.. anybody help me
Yes. The latest factory rom is the T-Mobile AKU 3.3 one from September this year. Problem is it looked very nasty as in keeping with T-Mobile's adapted colours (Pink and charcoal... YUK). I have changed those back to factory and used the O2 dialer skin (much nicer) and left the rest of the rom untouched.
Give it a try. I have been using it for a month now without problems.

Very thank to PsiDOC.
This is the best rom, very stable, fast, working all functions. I have used EXEC more than 3 days but battery shows still over 30%, very long life battery with this rom !!!.

Many Thanks Dr. Quyen
hello, need fastest rom for Hermes because I installed a lot longer roms but they are terribly slow and delay the work phone. Sorry for my English.
Now i using DarkVision 4
DV 4.0 is really fast IMHO, maybe try DV5 (its still beta, but stable)
i suggest u to use Mrdsl's rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=543842
wm 6.5 with manilla..
Problem isn't the ROMs, Its the hardware... Hermes was a brilliant piece of hardware in its time but, and I'm sorry to say this, its almost hit the obsolete heap...
Too little ram is a MAJOR pain for this phone. Otherwise it would still hold its own with a fair number of the newer HTC's on the market.
Unfortunately its this that is causing a large number of chefs to move on to newer devices. I would give the Hermes about 12 - 18 months before there will be no more new ROMs.
12-18 month?? Great!
Until then, i can play and test again with your great 6.5-Roms, maybe 7.0 Roms. Or back to the good old 6.1 Rom with many, many UI-posibillities, for example rlToday, TodayPlus, and all that good fast stable stuff...

Little question have you compared it with spb mobile shell 3.0 in case of speed, memory and ergonomy (OK, the last is allways subjectively )?

you can't compare it - it strongly depends on the HS++ skin you choose.
thanks for this answer of my offtopic-question. I'm reading all day long in the developing subforum. There are several Theme-Threads of HS++, I'm afraid to say no one "Collecton-of-all-Theme-Links-Thread". But I found an interesting alternative to homescreen++: ThrottleLauncher. Yes, UI-search and customizing with hundreds of themes is very time-consuming...
I'm testing right now your ROM, interesting ROM, but sadly find some bugs (~10). Maybee tomorrow I'll write some of them into your thread.
bye.
I agree with Ultramag... i will keep some bucks to buy a nicer device but... i will wait till end of this year to have a nicer view about the sanpdragon processor and high ress and screen, 3.5 audiojack and so much RAM!!!

as long as our cooks stick with wm 6.5 u wont see any "fast" roms in the future
our hermes hardware is limited now...6.5 isnt the OS thats made for it. i still prefer 6.1 over 6.5, cuz they are better/faster/ more stable for daily use.

Did you even try it? It's really faster and very stable. Don't just repeat what some are talking around - try it for yourself.

No - RAM is built-in into the whole Hermes' SoC - so it's not possible.

yeah i tried a lot, thats why i have this opinion
even your dark vision one. it looks fine...like all the others but its not usable for "me". too laggy after some use (internet, telephon, calender, etc...) and i dont want to softreset my phone everyt time i used a prog or two. i did the same things as on 6.1 and it behaves more weird, so i always went back to 6.1 after a 6.5 flash.
maybe im too fuzzy.
but hey, thats my opinion, my experience with that, tho.

But they... have you tried Hibernate option? Or my "Kill'em all" script? I'm softresetting my device really rarely - and I'm using it quite heavily....
But if you want 6.1 - I have uploaded once a full kitchen for this - and it produces really fast ROMs

Hiya,
Before I get flamed for this I want to make it clear I've tested every custom-brewed rom on xda-dev and have created (and failed) my own rom.
My sole purpose is to have a rom that is all performance based with little to no eye-candy.
Kavana, lovebaby, etc really didn't work for me. I've been using the latest EnergyROM and I like it so far (except for random crashes after sending text messages).
Because of my ignorance, I want to know if there is a rom out there specialized solely for performance that may not be on xda-dev.
Thanks
There isn't any in my opinion cause I have tried all the roms and they always seem to get unstable after continous usage or after a few weeks.
But the original HTC Rom worked great but didn't look so good...
I'm surprised you say Kavana's ROM didn't work for you. I have tried ROM after ROM and I keep going back to Kavana's. For me, It seems to be the best balance of speed (after you bump it up a bit with OMAPClock,) stability, battery life, and flexibility.
Using kavanna ricky remade and all is working great!
I have not made a soft reset in more than 2 months!
But always a new ROM is something attractive

+2 on this one, I've used kavana's rom for over a year with no issues at all...I moved to a cooked 6.5 rom (3vo) 6 months ago..so there are very good roms out there.

I too am using Kavana's remade ROM at the moment. Its the best I have used so far.
Well indeed I've used Kavanas (and actually have re-installed it on my phone about a week ago to give it another go) but I've noticed most of these ROMs fall in line not far from each other.
I'm actually using a 2200mAh extended battery and the battery isn't consumed as much on Kavana's and EnergyROM. I am certain a ROM can created that can far exceed our current ones.
I have down-clocked my CPU but I don't think that should be an option. Thanks to all the guys who have actually put in the time to creating ROMs for the community and I mean do disrespect to you or the work that you have produced. Hey, we're humans and greedy for more
