Which rom? Help pls...

Hi Guys,
Ok, I have to admit that I'm lost. I don't know which ROM to choose but also I don't have time to try all of them
What I need:
- VGA (MUST HAVE)
- O2 UK settings (I'm using GPRS, don't need video calls, I'd like to have MMS!)
- BT
- stability (but actually I don't mind trying beta version and doing SR on the daily basis)
- speed
Ok, that's what I need. Anything extra is a bonus but I don't care about skins, look&feel etc. I like simple forms, fast, usable.
Can anyone help me please?
At this moment I'm considering Helmi's ROM or one of those PDAVIET's WM6 as possible candidates. I'm not sure, but somewhere I've seen that VGA hack doesn't work with newest HELMI's ROM.
Thanks for your help!
Cheers
Chris

if u want stability as the main priority you will have to setle for a 3.3/3.2 wm5 rom... either helmis or indiras
both of them are really excellent roms
if u want wm6 u can pick up helmis wm6. which i consider is very good... PDAVIET all versions are just mild modifications.. while the core rom remainsthe same in all of them
as far as vga mode is considered u can always install it as an add on

Helmis 3.3 WM5 ROM

All Wm6 Roms

I WILL PERSONALLY SUGGEST HELMI'S ROM
I DONT SAY OTHERS ARE BAD...

Cheers mate!
Yeah, I've seen those posts. My question is as well-
which radio I should chose? Do I need "normal" o2 rom as well?
Many thanks!
Chris

RADIO ROM IS VERY MUCH OPERATOR DEPENDANT... SO YOU WILL HAVE TO CHECK IF 1.14 WORKS GOOD FOR YOU ELSE 1.13 IS A SAFE BET... IT WORKS GOOD
NO YOU DO NOT NEED NORMAL O2 ROM

Best ROM Recommendation

I've notice a couple of custom ROM for the Trinity. Would those of you who have tried these ROM give me a recommendation on which i should try. I'm currently using Schap's ROM for Hermes but am now looking to flash my Trinity as well.
Might sound weird but has anybody tried flashing Schap's ROM for Hermes to the Trinity?
Thank you for an advice given.

I have found a few useful WWE (English ROMs) that all have there own nice features.
but the nicest so far for me is this one. bepe's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317690
it comes in 4 versions Full, NoTomTom, Lite, Lite VC.

I have tried many WM6 ROMs, I personally feel the 'bepe' ROM is the best so far too.

I use AX3L 2.0.8.2 ROM but also tried LSVW ROM. In my opinion there is no best ROM in general, just the best ROM for you so try a few and you decide which one is best for you.

It would be good if all versions of ROMs could be compared against one another over what they contain as well as stability or people recommending as it would help with questions such as this!

My personal experience:
AX3L, very fast, very stable, slightly outdated software versions, not as good looking/user friendly due to the lack of htchome and htsmusicmanager
Bepe, this seems to be a ver fast and very up to date version, but the feature list is not as clear as AX3l's so i am not sure how fast it really is.
PDAVIET, i am using this now, feels slower than AX3l, is fully updated to all the versions of os and hardware, the downside of this is that it all seems to include a buggy version of batterystatus (or a buggy combination of the newest htchome with batterystatus) which cab cause a crash in some cases (ruiquiring a hard-reset)
i think shaps rom looks best with all his customation, too bad he doesnt also have a trinity

"It would be good if all versions of ROMs could be compared against one another over what they contain as well as stability or people recommending as it would help with questions such as this!"
yes the whole purpos of a wiki is people contrubuting to it
so go for it!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Trinity_Versions&action=create

Thanx for the many replies. Looking at it, i will give bepe's ROM a go 1st. Would the process be the same as what i did for my Hermes? Update the SPL and just run the downloaded ROM? Or is it different?

what is the stablest rom for hermes???

is the official wm6 the stablest than others cooked rom ???

No, quite the opposite. In most cases you will find that cooked roms included fix's / tweaks that improve the reliability of the official rom.

And which rom is the stablest ???

stability issues normally occur when you start to install 3rd party applications. I recommend you try a few out, customize them and then see which ones you find stable. Obviously the more recent the rom, the more stable they are likely to be due to them including the latest patches etc.

for stability I like vp3g rom

Nobody can actually tell you which is the best because it`s all depends on individual device taste, performance, radio and app preference. So, you need to start reading the cooks threads, do some testing and decide which one works best for your device.

No doubt here.
I have installed nearly all cooked roms, and as conclusion ...
One fail here the other fail there.
Now I'm on last K's rom. For me the most stable and reliable.
More than two month without flashing...
Roms are like flawours, but if you want to flash and rest for a while, for sure K's is the best choice.
Regards

for my choise there are 2 roms:
1) K's Rom WM6.0 Final (I'm using the lite version for 2 months now)
2) Olio's Rom 3.54, also lite
both are smooth, small and really fast

vp3g all way. PLEASE COME BACK!!!

K's Rom for me is the best one. Tried TNT WM 6.1, It is a good rom, but 6.1 has its bugs, which I haven't been used to for months so I went back to K's. vp3g's is a awesome rom also.

Like TNT SE myself.... Dont forget to sim/cid unlock your phone before you Hard SPL it though, could cause problems otherwise.

Extended Rom Problems after installing Wm6.1 and going back to 6.0

After 3 terrible days dealing with diferent wm6.1 roms from here, I go back to my the old and stable K's Wm6 Final.
My experience with Wm6.1 has been completly awfull. HR, screen frezzes, white screens on load, no GSM, App crashes .... Even installing previously a official WWE rom.
I know that there are people working with 6.1 without problems but in my opinion, if somebody need a sure and confiable hermes phone better to stay away from 6.1.
Regards
Pd.: Wm6.1 Roms Installed: last from PDACorner, last from PDAViet, MRH 5.7, and NiaX ESP (All same problems)

Mmmm strange. I use the CRCs V11 since it is available and waiting for the next Shaps french one. Even if my hermes is "french", all applications are working fine (TomTom, a lot of GPS apps, Basic4PPC, astronomy softwares, PocketCM, Tcpmp, etc...). Even video calls are working fine. Battery consumption is fair (no push mail) with 1.47.00.10 radio rom. Till now i did not miss a call and speed is good (obviously, more you add apps, slower is your pda)
Btw, i always "flash" roms using sdcard method. IMO, it is the only reliable way (no possible usb deconnexion, so easy, PC independent,...)
Give a try to CRC's V11. Who knows? You could find your way through 6.1
Hope this helps

Wm6.1 problem
I agree with you. So far try out so many ROM with WM6.1. Encounter all sort of problems like hang when making calls, network not found, auto hard reset. But only Pays WWE 3.00 Final Full this ROM I never face all this problems at all. Perhaps you might want to give a try on Pays ROM 3.00. Cheers!

i'm using crc v11 till now and never experiencing any problem like that.

Did those roms, pays and crc, have Extended rom or are Big Storage?

CRC V11 stores elements in extended rom (as far as i know). If i can suggest something: As you experienced problems with 6.1, just start first with a rom which seems stable. As a test, it is not so important to be Big Storage or not

I have been using MRH 5.5 for several weeks now with out a single freeze. Works great.

CRC12.1
definitely no problems. Unless you want to run microsoft's live search. The only thing that doesn't go and i haven't had a chance to tweak with s2u2 yet

its just ur device... plus u gotta no which one is best for u..

Cloudyfa 's Shadow_TE 2.1 WM6.1 is a stable ROM.
i had use it for about 4 months

Don't know. It could be a personal problem...
I went back to my well known K's Rom and the problems was still there. Now I'm sure that it is related to extended rom, that from time to time and without reason get automatically erased.
I have flash a well know oficial At&T Rom, as adviced by one of the best cookers here, then install again K's Rom final, and the problem disapeared for two days, but it is here again...
Does somebody know If I can flash just a oficial Extended Rom (instead of the full oficial AT&T Rom) or format the extended Storage with some program (pocket mechanic or some other like it)?. I'm a little tired of repeating the configuration proccess...
Thanks

I have flashed again the official At&t rom, as adviced by Dr. Puthingan, and then the K's Final Rom to nothing.
The problem still there.
When I was installing an App to the Extended_Rom the intallation hangs, and after reset all the contens of Extended Rom have dissapeared.
I found only a FilesToBeDeleted folder winth garbage inside (look at screenshoot)

Hey,
I was in the same situation as you were in a couple of months ago...
I've always wanted to tinker around with WM6.1 but I too also found the Ext.Rom to be unstable...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2228473&postcount=703
I always found myself flashing back to the reliable Shamanix Ultimate 2.0 Final.
Finally, I tried this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406111
And, It's been surprisingly stable and no Ext.ROM to deal with.
Again, before installation, you'll have to follow Dr. P's instructions:

Hope this helps

You might want to try the official dopod rom then back whichever 6.1 you want. I found mine was better after doing that.

Hopefully the problems is solved....
I reinstall the At&T, as adviced by Dr. Puttinghan, hard-spl 7, and then the Faria/Dr. Puttinghan Clean Rom.
Now, all is working without issues..

Is there a stable WM 6.5 ROM for the P3600 (NOT 3600i)?

Hi,
I have to flash the rom anyway (there are some strange things happening to my device, I fear it is hijacked). Since I am only an interested end user, not so much interested in testing - I would like to know whether I should use one of the latest WM6.5 or a stable WM6.1 rom. I already have a 6.1 rom, but a quite early one ([english ROM LVSW_Trinity_WM6_v2.0.1.1 (2007-05-27)]) and thus not so reliable.
The first issue, however is, since I own a P3600 (400 MHz only) with ROM: 128 MB and RAM: 64 MB SDRA only, whether WM 6.5 would ever run stable on this device. Does anyone have a well founded opinion on this issue?
Anyway, what would be the most stable version?
From my side, no language preference, English would be as fine as German.
Thank you for any kind response!

stable ROM
Hi,
Chanvi 's one are good ROM(s) .. On my opinion, i prefer the 6.1 rom with manila 2D more usable than 6.5 with CHome ...
I'use this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=472178
"Update Feb-13-2009 : OS 21139.5.0.0 Manila 2D Iolite-Footprints .
This Rom is a hybrid WM 6.1/6.5"
Great ROM !
regards

[ROM] [WWE] Windows Phone 6.5 21815 by Savesaint [Online] [Updated 2009.06.18]
This one is more stable, then Chanvi's, from my opinion, i had much more bugs using different builds from chanvi's, even in different customisations.
Savesaint's has it's own bugs, and i can't customise it (because it's not a kitchen), but i prefer using that one.
But 3600's wm5 doesn't look like this one

the both sent ROM is 6.5 and as i know it always Memery hungry . does anubody knows whis ROM is the best in 6.1?

I use from 3 month now and i have no problem with FInixNOver 3.7.2 light, before i use FInixNOver 3.7.2 manilla and it work very good.I was change it becose in manilla i have 12 mb free memory and igo stops sometimes.

this is another vote for the FInixNOver 3.7.2 light rom, for stability you cant get anything better than this ... i've tried a lot of roms and have allways gone back to this one.
I've tried all the 6.5 version roms and to be honest mate ... dont go there, they all have their issues.

give it a try to 6.5
I have been testing for a while now some 6.5 Roms. From my experience they have bugs, not all the programs can't work on 6.5, etc...
But I am confident since the savesaint 815 that we are going to have a very stable Rom soon. From my experience this was the best in 6.5 roms.
The few bugs that the rom have are solve by now.

Must wait developments... until Stable!

Yeah
I agree, things got to get done. WM 6.5 it's not final version yet. Still in development from Microsoft... so got to wait a bit more so that we can really talk about a stable ROM.
Until there, with minor or sometimes a bit major bugs, the latest Builds are working better...

hi,
where to get this light rom 3.7.2?
in the official thread, there is no links: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506501
thanks

thanks.
installed the rom and after playing with it for a while, i must say that this rom is very good. quick and stable. so i think i stick with this rom for a while.
wm 6.5 is cool, but it soo slow with newer releases, so that i cant use it anymore.

I am the same opinion, for now I'll stay with version 6.1 light version to not have problems with iGO.I find on the net windows mobile 5, original vesion HTC P 3600 and I thinking to install that to comarare wm5 and wm6.1. I bought SPV M700 from orange, 2 years ago.

first i was very happy with wm6.5 (first releases). But the more wm6.5 goes further, it's soo slow and the response time is very long (i use spb mobile shell).
I never had problems with tomtom, but with the last wm6.5 releases tomtom runs so slow

Greek rom

Only if you want internet radio.

You all welcome to try my rOms.

If you are looking for stability, I definitely recommend trying Tomme45i's latest ROM series:
[ROM+KITCHEN][WWE][26.08.09]WM 6.1.21054 + 6.5.23017 Classic
He has stripped away the fancier elements of 6.5 (so personal preference will play a part in deciding if it is the ROM for you) but it's incredibly stable, has excellent memory handling and suffers from no memory leaks.
It is probably the last of his Trinity ROMS, so well worth checking out.
Hope this helps,
Matt.
