Following on from "Meschle's" post earlier in the week...
For all those wanting to know when new version coming - eta week beginning 5th november
Premier 2.0 full and lite both versions with or without blue cube.
On the Eve of the 5th Nov, do we have any news or update....
Release date & Features.........?
IMHO, Meschle offers the most complete all round ROMs, with little or in fact no modification/additions after Flashing.
I can't wait............
I thougth the Artemis Touch 3.0 full, lite and vanilla would come first.
But hey it doesn't matter because I agree with you totally. Meschle's rom's are fantastic! Can't wait neither ...
Hey guys I am sure you will pleased with these roms. Both based on 5.2.1921 which imo outperforms 5.2.1933. = fast and stable.
Both come with htc album and many updates
And both come with cube or without - and cube is tweaked to activate faster than ever seen.
Artemis touch 3.0 released first followed shortly by Premier 2.0 over the next few days
Wizard dialer Retouched please!
Can't wait for new ROM
Have been using Meschle's Artemis Touch full version 2.1 since its release can't wait for Ver 3.0. Itching to flash again....
Must admit, 2.1 rom is so stable and fast even with all the apps i have literaly dumped on it.. that i even dont know if there can be a better rom.
Premier vs Vanilla
Do you think it will be faster than Vanilla 2.0?
Actually I'm not using cube, however other thing are pretty good
Meschle is some guy, always kindly comments when a probing post comes out, I agree with the above and have tried all the latest Roms from other "Cooks" and always return to Mechle's 2.1 as it is by far the smoothest, most stable, feature packed and most importantly fast Rom to date.
Any chances on a french version of touch 3 ?
I hardly cann't wait to try Touch 3.0.
If this one is just as fine as the Vanilla (fast & stable) I'll surely
going to use it.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH man i cant wait for either!!!!!!
excuse my stupidity but if premier is also gonna have the cube then whats gonna be the difference between touch 3.0 and premier 2.0? actually i dont care il try both!! hehe, my god i thinkim becomign a romaholic!
I cant wait either - its daft how much i look forward to these new roms
There are quite a few differences between premier and touch don't worry they are both different designs.
Guys I just put finishing touches on Artemis Touch 3.0 Vanilla - boy its good - seems as fast as Artemis Vanilla 2.0
Latest versions?
Does it include latest version of pocket cm (with the 4 buttons at the bottom?)
wikid! nice one Meschle!!! i cant wait! is it going to be today you think?
Well its looking like tomorrow but if everything comes together could be tonight.
I have kept pcm 0.11b as 0.15 is much slower imo and I can't be having slow roms You can easily install 0.15 for those that want it.
Cool, Meschle , i was so excited when saw this thread topic but: , so we are very much waiting for your release. Actually i many times returned to your Touch 2.1 after testing other coockers rom's, so i believe your next roms will be super cool. Looking fw for wizard black dialer and theme.
a french version pleaaaasssssseeeeee
Superb, meschle!
The PDA community is getting better and better ROM's.
Can't really wait! Ah.. Will it be also multilingual? ;-)
Mannnnnnnnnnnnn im gonna be online alllll day waiting then )))))
So I visited the forum tonight for the first time in a month (feels like 3! ) and I find many new ROMs floating around. Interestingly there is a lot more use of touchflo and the cube - obviously some of the wrinkles have been ironed out since last time
Basically, I wanna try some new ROMs, and there are a couple that have caught my eye (Faster Again, K's Rom), but I would also like to hear if there are others that I should, in your opinion, not overlook. Positive/negative aspects would be appreciated as well.
I have tried the K's ROM V1.21. Very fast. Together with the TouchFLO and TouchCube from eFrost + Kona, it is the best for me so far.
i agree K's rom, is very fast and stable
K's also
Completly agre.
K's is the faster and most stable I ever flash to my hermes.
TNT rom is the best one for me.
I'm using Shamanix's Grass v2, and it's the best I've found (althought all this is personal opinion!) for speed vs functionality
The best advice would be to look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320370
I am 100% (well 99% as Internet Sharing fix is still under development ) happy with Shamanix 2.2 - stable & very fast. Altough I didn't tried new K's rom...
TNT or K's
I am using Pays 1.23 (Faster Again), and love the speed and 78 mb of storage.
I am using Pays Rom its very stable and FAST!
I vote Pay's as well. Tried a couple and this one seems to be most stable and quick without the bloat.
Wow thanks for all the quick responses guys! Looks like i've got 4 solid ones to try out.
I dont know about anyone else but i have taken a liking to Shaps 4.22
mmm i'll stick with TNT SE
It would prove a lot more useful if when you recommend a rom you state WHICH ONES YOU HAVE TRIED! Don't worry about hurting the cooks feelings!
I have tried Schaps 4.22 and now I am using K's 1.30. The first thing to impress me was that selecting new sms was pretty instantaneous where as with all the other Roms I've used to date I had to watch the busy symbol for a couple seconds.

Welcome Back! TNT Special Edition or K's Full! Have fun flashing!
i've tried K's all of Shaps' and vp3g's, the Pandora Naked 6.....i feel like i've tried them all but I always find myself coming back to Shamanix's Grass 1.3. It's fast, light and stable. For me anyway it has the right combination of space and functionality. The Naked ROM was, well, a little too naked and some of the others came w/ a bit too much. 64MB of storage and over 31MB of program memory on a cold boot w/ the apps included in Grass v1.3 not to mention the speed and stability i've found make it my choice.
happy flashing!
Started off with K's and will try a few days, so far so good. A fully functional Touchflo is soooo nice

Did you find that the touchflo/touchcube thing slowed down your phone? I want to try it out but i'm really enjoying how fast my phone is running with just k's and I don't want to bog it down. Thanks.
so ks is the best? ^^ ,
working touchflo?
btw.. full or lite?
Ok, so help me out and all the other people who are in the same situation as i am.
There are so many different roms that i dont know which one is the one to use.
All i (we?) want is one that is fast, very fast
With some extra memory available.
And is stable.
At the moment i see some official roms
the Elite 2.0
Surface
TLR Diamond ROM 2
(and more?)
What is the one to go with?????
Share your opinion if you tryd 2 or more of them.
And what should we be looking for when picking one.
Thank you in advanced!
The Bepe beta rom is the fastest rom I have ever seen on Diamond.
You should give it a try
i am using the latest official dutch one from htc. it is really fast, you can even increase the speed a little more with the tweaks. and offcourse it is in dutch
Each of the ROMs is built upon a philosophy, and the best way to figure out which one is best for you is trying them. Personally, I've chosen for the TLR2 Rom, because I like that it keeps things as if they were stock, and the autoupdater in it is a gold idea.

Here number two.
Absolutedly advicable.
Phone is well, what I expect from it now. 100% usable
TLR was ok, but version two was not a succes. Bit sluggish now and then, hangs a bit, got screwed up
(I installed .Net on dutch rom afterwards, version 3.5. Its even better then!)
With the introduction of the 6.5 ROM, we all know that this rom is to heavy for the trinity user. Realisiticly seen we are left with the 6.1. So. The question that are arises, is there anyone here that is able to cook a good, quality, stable rom that is clean, has touchflow extracted from 6.5 and with uptodate software, kinda like the tytnn rom or the flinx one.
are you blind? there are nice working and fast WM6.5 roms out there, i'm using one myself so... pointless topic.
thanx

....really don't be so "blind"eheheheh!!!!my trinity is going very well wuth rubenalf ita tranlsation,jml today 5.5,tomtom7,videocalling,wifi going well,navisat working,google maps,Icontact,s2p music player,4 gyga microsd,diamond clock with animation -
- the only problem is my battery,after 2 years of really hard working now I'm really thinking about changing it!!
those 6.5 roms are slow on the trinity devices. Let's be honest. If you break the 6.5 down and strip it off, then it runs with poor memory. Conclusion? Trinity will not be able to take the 6.5 fully.
... pointless topic
Super Ultra Lite version of 28014. Fast, staible, lots of free space.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=600957
I am agry with jedai ... pointless topic!
there is not much free memory, we can trim down any rom and make it as small as we want. But can we make 6.5 so that it has a lot of free memory? No.
little reflection
trinity is a very very good device!!!
but last period roms have recentely become beautiful and heavy for our little jewel.
Unfortunately, the development of this work no longer leads to great satisfaction as before
I thank all the heroes - cooks who have allowed us to see with interest our device for several years without tiring us.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!

I don't know about you, but seems to me this is plenty of free RAM. It's even more than some of the older builds. There will be more updates to come still, just working out bugs on the latest builds.

yes I agree withbguys about 6.5 is too heavy to be honest and u can't run programs need a lot of memory or need a cpu preformane ...
I'm wondring about if this radio rom is spending battery 1.38.00.11 cuz I'm running out of battery so fast when I'm using internet and if there's a better one how I can change it cuz I tried too many times to change and didn't work
i just tried the 23504 Blue. It's slow. . . I keep on returning to finx latest rom with adjusted page pool settings. This rom is pretty fast, stable and has sufficient ram. If anybody is convinced trinity can handle 6.5 like that. Show me.
i also tried 6.5 and went back to 6.1.
Sure you can use 6.5 but it's slower, no matter how lite the version is. Start installing some stuff (specially recent versions which are also heavier) and everything feels even slower.
Nowadays no one produces software thinking about how it will run on our old trinity.
I'm even considering going back to 6.0 to see if i can get some more speed, don't think i'll be missing much from 6.1 anyway.
I'm currently on tomme45i's 6.1 which is a very good rom but it is also a bit slower (and buggier, imho) than finx's.
well, i'm using a 6.1 rom from tommie45, for me, it's the better rom i have ever try!!!
i dont know how, but his roms are the most stable and complete for trinity. it's my opinion!
i gave up on tommie45's rom and got back to finix 3.7.2.
It's not as pretty (b&w icons, uglier in general) and some functionality is less practical but... it feels much faster!
I recommend doing the same if the rom you are using feels slow.
Im using SuperSport WM6.5 build 23506 LITE and there hasn't been so much problems with it, but I can agree, 6.1 is faster, but the pro's in this rom is to many for me to use 6.1...
If I find the thread I'll put the link to it here.
Today at the phone store, they said they couldn't order the htc 3600 ( trinity ) anymore.......

wifi work? video call? bluetooth?
yeah it's a shame right? 3 years ago this phone was at the pinnacle of mobile communications, and today omg there's so many other things out there
however trinity and windows mobile is not dead! i've retired to a blackberry for my telephone call needs, but the trinity is now a dedicated GPS/dictionary. anyone else using it purely as a non-phone pda now?? and which rom??
Hi to all
I just bought my new diamond, and i must say that i regret that i bought it.
I had a HTC P3600 and by changing to diamond i thought that i would get a really good pda.
I was wrong.
Too slow, bad gps reception...
Correct me if im wrong but P3600 (Trinity) gives 10 to 0 to diamond.
Never had any problems with gps, now i cant get gps reception.
Rom speed in P3600, even in WM3.5 is way better, diamond is tooooo slowwwww.
Please if i'm wrong tell me so, because i regreat the day i trade my Trinity for a diamond.
Sorry about my english

Hi Zenga,
I'm still using both trinity and diamond. Diamond is definitely faster in most aspect compared to Trinity, especially GPS lock.
You can help list out your radio and rom version, so that we can help improve your diamond experience.
Diamond is a drag with the initial official rom and radio, but flashing to later radio and a good cooked rom can make it fly...

The Radio is responsible in enhancing the reception of a phone. Not so much the Rom. Please make sure before flashing that you have installed HARD SPL. Then you can begin to experiment with RADIO'S and what not's.
I have to admit, that I would not keep my diamond right out of the box. XDA has made all these devices superior. So with a little patience and less crying, you too will reap the benefits of this community.....
try other ROM and other Radio ,u'll see that u was not wrong !
just only 1 bad thing on diamond that is low battery i think so
To be honest I agree witth the poster. i had an Elfin before and it was much faster. Diamond has limited storage and too little ram. With Elfin I used to try out new roms for fun now its necessity.I have tried 30+ Diamond roms and most give out of memory errors or have lots of bugs. Don Salaris romd seem to get the most out of it but its still sluggish on 6.5 where Elfin handled it fine.
Maybe buying a DIAMOND is now a mistake with all the new phones that came out since it was released.
i have to admit i was a little disappointed bout the speed too when i bought the diamond awhile ago, but on the other hand the VGA screen is really way better then the QVGA i had on my Jade.
After a few months of flashing, tweaking, flashing, tweaking..... i'm more then satisfaid with the performance, keeping in mind that this device is a little out dated already.
I'm sure that when you update the device's Radio and find the ROM that suits your needs you'll start to like it more.
Btw...the WM6.1 ROMS are a little faster in use and the 'older' TF3D interfaces don't consume as much RAM as Sense 2.5 does.
Another point for me is that i've not been able to find a better looking device yet. All the newer devices are so big and square; they all look the same and only differ in size.
And yes, lol.....i'm a woman.
The Diamond is getting a bit old! There's a lot of newer (more interesting) phones on the market. (Ever tried a Android Phone?... WOW they're nice!).
Anyway, I bought my phone a while ago - and I don't wanna spend extra money buying a new phone - since the Diamond IS working ok... If however my diamond should brick or something, I wouldn't buy a Diamond again - I would go for one of the nice HTC Android phones... HTC Hero I think would be my bet now.
There's a lot of interesting ROMs here, that give new life to the Diamond - but if you want a fast device... I would recommend using a lite rom - WITHOUT touchflo or anything fancy like that... just plain WM61 og WM65.
to be honest, i wasn't to keen on the diamond with the stock stuff, but in 30 mins, you can have a nice speedy device WITH GOOD GPS
Fast rom = L3V5Y's 28014 Light rom
although, if was buying now, i would probably choose HD2 (Leo) or Touch Pro 2 (Rhodium)
none the less
i like my Diamond
A diamond is forever
Progress.
I'm surprised the Diamond is still being sold. I've had mine for about a year now.
The gps is laggy but hardly slow at connecting. With the right rom and radio you can get a fast boot and relyable reception. I have to say that bying a Diamond so late after it's release was a bit stupid. If you did buy the phone today then you should be able to send it back for a refund or exchange. In the UK most companies give a 14 day cool-off period so if you aren't satisfied with the phone then send it back and get something more recent.
You can't compare it to phones out on the market today as technology has progressed. It's like getting a secondhand PC off your mate and wondering why it's not as fast as the one you saw at PC world the other day.
If you want fast Windows mobile phone you should do your homework first. I agree the Trinity was a good phone. It had a lot of buttons and good battery life. But it was a bit of a chubby brick in comparison.
oh and Don't let any sales rep dis-wade you. You get what you pay for.
I love my Diamond... Works a treat. Try flashing a new rom.
Thanks
Thanks for all the answers.
I didn't buy a new diamond, but an used one. In Portugal, there's still possible to buy a new one, but for the price we can almost buy a Touch HD.
The pda is beautifull, i was used to really fat and big ones (Qtek S200 and HTC P3600) and this one is really thin.
My expectations were high conserning speed, i thout that if the Trinity is fast on WM6.1 the Diamond must be faster even in the heaviest rom's.
I've tried some rom's, original WM6.1, WM6.5, someones with sense, but none of them satisfied me.
Can someone tell me a fast one? I prefer rom's with manila.
The rom i now use is L3V5Y's 28014 Light rom and my radio is 1.15.25.14
Thanks
try don salari clean basic light rom. Or use the kitchen provided by yozgatg and customize the gen y rom according to your preferences. I've done that with his R4.4A and I always have free rom around 60% (after using it for some hours).
if you like manila you could also try Donsalari's WM6.5/Sense2.5 or 2.1 rom (2.1. is quit simular to original TF3D 2.1, but with some upgrades like the weather home page)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593678
I second that!

I second the recommend on Don Salari's ROM. After using the diamond on Dutty's 6.1 ROM for almost a year, I wanted to switch a 6.5 ROM. I've tried quite a few but ended up using Don's basic light ROM. I've been using it for about a month and half now without problems, which is the longest I've kept a rom since Dutty's. I have to admit the roms with 6.5 do make the diamond a little laggy. Sticking with a light rom is the best option if you're a heavy user and use memory intensive programmes.
