I got headache to choose, to keep my rom up to date!I'm still using custel 2.5. A lot of newer roms nowadays. Very positive growth.... Custel 2.5, Elf 2.1, Faria, Black 3.5 With Live Removed and Extra Storage, Black Dymond, vp3G's, LVSW, dutty's v2. and so many . Give me advice please.
Well duh, mine of course!
Seriously though, one of the best things about this place is so many ROMs to choose from. Each has it's merits (and it's quirks!). Just pick one, try it on and see how it fits you.
P.S. You missed one flavor in your list. Sleuth255 has put together a very nice LVSW variant as well. When in doubt, check the WIKI. I just updated it today, in fact.
Last weeks I installed almost all of them and (non-scientifically!) benchmarked their performance... See my post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1284362&postcount=15
My conclusion: they all are stabile and have more or less the same performance (I think because they have more or less the same core.... sorry chiefs).
The one you could pick is the one with the extra's and addons you want...
My personal experience: LVSW Sleuth edition is very good!
At the moment I'm trying Faria..
i tried every rom (including black dymond). when it comes to stability, nothing compares to lvsw and the derivates. i use elf 2.1. nice combination of features, working bt, fast and STABLE.
what i dont need is a pimp machine with soft reset every two hours...

I think mine is the best.. Actually, mine is unique in how it's built. I did cook some minor (and vital) things into the rom itself, but most is added via. ExtRom customization with all cab's modified to allow removal So, if you want Live, it's there. If you don't, just remove it. etc.. It's a different way to cook, and one that requires a whole lot of CAB modification.
My Live cab is different than any other cab on this site. I hand modified it to install in the way I wanted, and work the way I wanted. Personally, I think it's the best cab around -- and exclusively for Elf 2.1.
thank you. Very good benchmarking and very hard work! I'll try LVSW Sleuth edition.
I have used Elf 1.0 . It is very nice and marvelous build. But I got problem with battery charging. Then I tried black dymond and faria yesterday. But I have to go back to CUSTEL, because I feel more stable and more memory. Just now I tried Black 3.5 With Live Removed and Extra Storage and now I test Elf 2.1.

I like my ROM.
CUSTEL still won Program and memory space. Faria, LVSW Sleuth edition and Elf 2.1 won the speed. LSLW based won the most stable. Which one do you prefer most? Do you agree with this conclusion?
Elf V2.1 works for me
I haven't tried all so I can't compare. Indeed I have only flashed my JASJAM yesterday for the first time with Elf V2.1. So far it has been working great for me. For those who has been hesitating to take the plunge, I would say read the WIKI. Make sure you know what you are doing. Then do it. I did that and I am a happy man. And I am sure many of these ROMs are all great. We (and MS) are lucky to have this great community to support this WM platform.
Cheers.
I agree with you. Their hard works are very great. Everybody in this forum and out there can't deny this.
LVSW 19-05-2007 Sleuth edition and Elf2.1 are very nice to try. So I test Elf 2.1 first. Sleuth still on downloading... rapidshare got a little bit slow.
cool topic
What a great thread to read peoples summary experiences. This kind of thread would have been previously scoffed at with ' go read for yourself ' replies by some that have left this forum except to throw the odd spot remark.
I am currently using FARIA after trying some of the Black and LVSW variants. I like FARIA a lot because of the addin utils, and am not concerned about only 20Mb free after boot. I make calls and use TomTom, not much more.
The MAJOR thing that I like about FARIA is that now my car charger works, whereas all the other ROMs didn't allow the car charger to work - go figure!
Thanks to all the contributors and chefs who hold true and know when to reply and when to ignore some of the less experienced users questions. Its about COMMUNITY, not superiority. Thanks, and may your sheep be blessed with a thousand lambs.
I like FARIA especially on startup, date/time finishing and speed. But it's addons take much memory so I have to reset so many times especially after using MAPKING and WIFI. I'll like FARIA if it a lite version with an option addons.

Hello,
Sadly after reading last FinixOver post, I realized, that there are no more WWE Rom cookers for the Trinity.
-Akeo broke device and went to Diamond.
-Tnyynt also changed to Diamond.
-Finixover I think is aso on the way to Diamond.
-eliasweb long time no update
-karmba_a also bought diamond
Our only options right now are PDAViet, which personally I don't like.
Maybe there's someone out there willing to start cooking??
Or should we all move to diamond's aswell
best regards to all.
This is shocking news! but i can understand why, the dimond seems brilliant, i had my 1st look the other day and it has amazing features like the G sensor, wow and the graphics.
I wish all the old cookers the best of luck with the Dimond because they have all done an AMAZING job with the trinnity and I am very thankful for all their hard work and time.
Bring on the next generation cookers!
I'm trying to cook but it's a litle diferant of my Roms on Prophet hihi.
i'm studyng the manuals of cooking on a Trinity because i've changed recently from Prophet

Good luck on Trintiy cooking. I'm sure that you will master it, I used a few of your Prophet roms and really liked them.
Welcome.
For those of you who think about purchasing a Touch Diamond I would like to tell you two things.
-Battery life sucks,if you thought the battery in your trinity doesn´t last.....get ready to charge your diamond almost everyday or day and a half.
-Poor/Low signal.
Been using the Trinity for the last year and half. Very happy with the features.
Now time to move on, will not choose Diamond. This time need one with QWERT keyboard as quite often need to write/reply email on the go.
Hey, what you guys thinks of Touch Pro??? Any good in terms of battery life, speed, GPS reception?

Thank you my friend
i'm reading reading reading reading, before start
HI,
I use Diamond from one month and I can say that:
1. Signal is very good (I use oryginal radio 1.25.05),
2. Battery is really weak. Max two days keeps without charging,
3. looks excellent, very small compare to trynity,
4. better lcd etc.
So bros may time to change your mobiles?
I used trynity almost one year and and I thing that is very good mobile.
Cheers

it would be nice to come up with a rom like this one you made here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=382434 for trinity
my opinion
I would cook if I had a device but I havn't been able to find a cheep second hand trinity yet.
I made a try that did boot but havn't gotten back to give it an other try.
All i can say is that i will miss all these developers and can't thank them enough for all the hard work they have done for us...all of you.
One other thing....MAXNIPER WHEN DO U START COOKING DUDE???
just saw your Prophet Rom and i am just waiting for your first release to flash my trinity...Nice work on the Prophet and hope you do the same here...
Before my companion with Trinity for one year, I used Palm Treo 650 for one year.
I like Treo 650's operating speed and qwerty keyboard to write sms and email. But WM OS has so many up-to-date software to use, so I changed to Trinity, considering its basic WM function and GPS.
Now, if no one continue to cook Trinity roms, I really don't know which mobile I should change to. I don't think Diamond has any significant innovative function, except its shell.
I appreciate all the great works of rom cookers, especially FInixNOver coz I am using it now. I am satisfied with Trinity till now.
Hi Everyone,
Can you kindly share your opinions about the best WM 6.1 ROM out there please ? Is there a 6.1 cooked ROM which comes close to the ROMS Schapps produced ? Personally I would prefer a stable , fast and bug free ROM rather than a glossy one with a plethora of 3rd party applications.
I have tried the Starbase S64 Manilla 2d rom but after a few hours of usage realise that it is not one I could keep for long due to problems with stability , speed and memory usage and several language bugs (German instead of English in Calendar, Maps etc)
Cheers !
the only way
To come up with an opinion is trying every single one, and decide what fits your needs.
We have benchmarks that has been done by Veyka on the sticky. And I have come up with two of my favourites on my signature, until you have flashed every single one (and I may add a good flash takes time) you won't be able to come up with any opinion at all!
Edit also there is an FAQ thread on the sticky.
Cheers and happy flashing!
Flash flash flash and compare, There's not much else to say.
We all do different things with our phone, I like CRC's, other people like PDAcorners, the almostnaked and anryl roms are good as well!
There all good! Just aim for a lite rom if your looking for something empty.
Also dont forget to flash a shipped rom if your going between Bigstorage roms.
please state your favourite
Hi,
If you have tried a few 6.1 ROMS please simply state your favourite. Or if you are just happy with any particular ROM share its identity with us. An exhaustive comparison is not necessary
Cheers.

the exhaustive comparison has been done right here.
Zocster is right, I have flashed many of the roms on this great site and the ones in his signature are top notch. although I really like MRH 8.4 sun shower as well due to its design and fit and finish. every rom is good though and I find it thoroughly enjoyable to test them out.

Myself, Im a CRC fanboy
PDAcorner if you like the icons
Dvha, good, fast, not always sure what they are upto though!
The newer chefs are as good as the pros in many respects!
Almost naked or Starbase64's new roms have TF2D in them! (Just as easy to cab install though)
Loaded roms are slower.
Bigstorage roms are faster but need more care.

Been a avid lurker/user since mid 07 when i first had a hermes, those were the days..... the chefs being jasjamming, schaps in his early days and many others, I didnt use to flash so much, because i believe then, the roms, although older were more stable (wm6 that is), now the point of this post is, Im not a great lover of manilla, and I love to play games, use opera mini and use notepad/word, my kids love Flip It, PDApaint, Whats the best OLD rom, although great chefs like JLA and Josh have made great 6.1 roms, I believe the older the better... I remember Black Satin by JasJamming and his black series..... Can you guys recommend a real GOOD old Rom? its got to be able to run Games and all the above and the wi-fi gotta run good too, I look forward to your help

Lol I'm obsessed in using the latest builds just so i can say to people that i have the latest windows. I have been thinking of making a old wm6 version of my ROM as i think the same i just didn't think any one would use it because its wm6.

I don't quite see how an old ROM is better in terms of running apps and games. I frequently play games, surf the web etc. and I almost always use the cutting edge ROMs. I can clearly say the newer ROMs are better almost in any terms. I said almost because there is always a minor quirk somewhere. But that also holds for old ROMs.
By the way, new doesn't mean Manilla. I don't like bloated interfaces myself, and I prefer my ROM slim, fast and responsive. There are a couple of light ROMs out there at the moment. I strongly recommend you to try one of them. I find http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=458843 to be one of the best at the moment.
thanks burkay, i have about three to flash, basically that rom looks the works, and its based on josh's rom, so i know it will be a class rom...
edit: this rom is too perfect. im keeping this one
erm, flashed again, now found a superb rom, its windows 6.1, the name is in my signature. post closed lol
Nice job here, what can i say : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470757
But, i hope to not be miss understanded, all users need something like a 1-10 number of every rom.
For me , for example Natay 2.2 is counted like 10+ ( rapid, light ( 140/60 Mb free) from me, best battery life time > 3days , with radio DiamondRadio 1.09.25.23 ).
Hope down , it will be opinions for all the roms, from different users.
Have a nice day all, who read this.
Shaks.P v4.10 UC 5.2.21042 Light
i think it will be udk's and NATALY's rom
before this thread is locked, wanted to say It's this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=498873
hands down
First a couple of guys will say "there's no best, dude, you have to try all by yourself", then a moderator or admin will pop out saying the same and lock the thread.
Cloudy v1.0 is very good. Stable and fast !!
For me it are AZATOR and NATALY.
The others are too far away from stock.
Dutty
Hi, I have tried some, but Dutty's latest is the one I settled with.
It's proven, reliable, and stable. From the numbers of replies and view on Dutty's thread, I am guessing it's the most used ROM. I am sure there are faster ones, but I got many programes on my device already, I am too lazy to switch now.
It would be gerat if we could take a poll. It shouldn't say WHAT IS THE BEST ROM? but WHAT ROM DO YOU LIKE (or USE)? is enough.

New roms are what keeo the Diamond alive, why would u not want to keep something fresh and updated?
Im takin bets on how long b4 this thread is closed :d
PEOPLE USE THERE DIAMONDS FOR DIFFENT THINGS SO OBVIOUSLY PEOPLE OPINIONS ARE GUNNA DIFFER, THERE ARE A FEW ROMS I LIKE, SWTOS'S NAKED ROMS ARE GREAT AND SO IT UdK'S R4 ROM, makeveral'S BsB 6.5 ROM HAS ALL THE MARKINGS OF BEING THE FIRST GR8 WINMOB 6.5 ROM ON THE DIAMOND
The best rom for me to take the manila and menus rhodium, so for me the best have not yet released, if itje fixes bugs your rom 4.3 will undoubtedly be the best.
Very Stupid!
Hi all....
I just want to say that there is a reason why you all think this thread is going be closed, and so it should be!
There is NO BEST ROM! If you named the thread: 'Which ROM do you prefer and why', then you may get some good replies and some good pointers as to why people prefer certain ROMS - Speed, reliability...etc...
This thread is pointless!! I hate it when there is a reply saying 'Duttys ROM is the best' - How does this help anyone???
Why do you think it's the best? If people gave a decent reply then it would be much better.
nataly 2.5 ftw
simple, fast, best battery, lots of space and ram, customizable

I agree. I like the Xbmod Manila, and the Touch-it 4.3 is super fast and stable. If all the small bugs can be fixed in the next release, it would be my favorite ROM for sure.

Who do you think is the Iron Chef here?
28 views and no replies, huh?
I'll bite.
I like ROMS from Agent 47, gtrab, Itje and Wild Child.
It's difficult to pick one becuase I have used ROMS from each of these chefs and found them to be excellent work.
I think support from the chef is also paramount in picking the iron chef.
At the moment I'm running Agent's valkyrie 2.4 firestorm
smaberg..
his rom is the only one in which i never have to say ..damn,,,
for me, it'd have to be a brawl between gtrab, and itje.
I have used ROM's from Itje, Agent_47, Jackleung, Smaberg and NRGZ. I would say it's really hard to choose which among them is the best as all of them seems to cook better and better ROM's. I guess it all boils down as to which one you want to keep. I would like to keep all but i only have one x1. Guess i need to buy a few...lol!
Jack's rom, still there. Haven't flashed for about a month now.
Why so stable!!!
Oh yeah, I haven't done a soft-reset for a while now, week atleast.
Are there any cooked ROMs that basically have no "added" bugs on top of the ones that are already in R3A and WinMo?
I just don't have time to flash multiple times, though I wish I could.
I really appreciate any advice.
I personally like gtrab's rom,
There are so many great ROMs and iron chefs, but personally prefer itje's Touch-IT!
i was first a user of itje
but there is one major problem in all his roms
when i open opera or internet explorer and log on to xda developers i can enter details from my hardware keyboard..i have to use onscreen..while in smaberg and in agent_47 it works that way..so i use them.!!
I think there is a dead race between itje, smaberg, nrg and agent47.
Itje and smaberg have made very stabile roms. Agent47 and nrg has a lot of eye-candy in their roms.
They are all my favourite, i cant just choose one of them.
itje is the iron chef
Imo Itje and Agent_47 are the best with ALL the other big chefs are right behind them. They have all great work.
Btw, VNMenIeu, Love how u say that Itje is the iron chef but u use gtrab's rom
