What ROM did you flash on your Diamond?

Which ROMs are hot, which are not. What ROM are people running on their Diamond? Let's find out in this poll!
I'm on the TLR ROM since the AppToDate feature gives the built-in capability to easily update the components in the ROM without needing to do another flash. On performance issues, I've honestly not seen really big improvements between the different ROMs, other then the obvious placebo effect many of us will experience after flashing a new ROM... I've started with 1.35.401.3 WWE (stock) and went from 1.37.707.1 to the TLR ROM.
Please share your reasons on why you've chosen a particular ROM!

So far, TLR and the ME 456 are the most popular. Please post your reasons why you've chosen your particular ROMs!

I've chosen to go with TLR as it has AppToDate and tmobile connection settings. Also, didn't like the look of some of the outstanding features/bugs in Elite 2.0 thread. Here's hoping it works now I've shot my mouth off eh?
Great work all, donations on route to hspl developers and TLR if I find a donate button
Chris

1.37.405 for me, but modified to my own liking so there are a few of the same sorts of tweaks that you'd find in the TLR ROM, and a lot more stuff taken out.
Still isn't as snappy as I'd like, but I'm sure things will get better over time, once a few new base ROM's have come and gone...

what about Elite 2.0??

no body likes it . lol.

Flashed to stock 1.37.456
because it's inlcuded with dutch language, so gettting something back of the original language, and that wont work at TLR.

1.37.456
It's the newest... with latest revision of all apps included!

Add Elite 2.0 to your list, it is very good and fast ROM

You can however modify the registry to make the TF3D in dutch. That's good enough for me

lmao, gotta love that Australian responce.

Last night I flashed the 1.37.456 ME ROM on my TD.
I must say, I had the phone for 5 days but was already getting very annoyed with the slow navigation.
This ROM has however changed my mind completely. It is nice and fast. Almost perfect I would say . Apart from this ROM, I didn't have to do any tweaks, except the modified Comm Mgr which allows me to quickly swap between GSM vs Auto (3G) band mode.
So far, I see no reason to yet try another ROM. This one is simple great!

Sticky, please
Please moderators: Please a sticky on this poll so it appears on the first page of this forum. Thx!

Can anybody tell me how I can change the poll so as to add the Elite 2.0 option?

TLR rom
master!

No bugs at all running TLR rom now at least 5 days in a row without reset.

Any Interest

Hi guys, just thought I'd see if there is any interest in a clean rom build of the latest version. Looks like I'll be getting my 8525 back so I'll be able to play again. Probably on par with my usual - as fast as I can get it without any fluff.
If there is, please let me know if there are any preferred build numbers and if big storage is still preferred over having the extended rom accessable.
I'll be surfing to try and get caught up on changes and digging through the archives for stuff, but if you have any special requests, please let me know.

hi matt,
good to see you back.
i had to switch to dvha79_ddt's 20226 build. but as i am a true fan of your clean rom, i will be definitely switching back to your rom.
preference:
- super-storage
- build number is not so important. i prefer stability and performance over build numbers.
- please keep in mind to include the "in call bugfix".
- could you also please provide a kaiser-style 2G dialer, built-in or as a cab. it does not matter. just in case that your other kaiserstyle dialer would not work as with your other naked roms.
looking forward to your new rom

Hi matt - I was always a fan of your clean roms mate and would certainly like to see you get back into creating.
Because of all the other with 6.1 roms I've not been regularly updating for some time, settling on a CRC rom. For that reason I can't recommend anythying with build numbers or drivers, etc. but I actually do use the extended ROMs on my BA, Hermes and Universal and so Big Storage roms ain't my personal pref tbh. Having oems in Windows instead of cabs in ext rom negates any BS benefits for me. (On your BS roms I just made a 3.5mb mega-cab of about 13 or 14 megs or so of stuff in and just left in Windows instead of using oems.
I actually used my own Pandora 6.0 mix for ages, going back to it after every 6.1 install.

really liked you PN9b1 , hope to see your new work

I've been looking for the leanest and cleanest myself, so I'm in.

hmm
20270 builds seem buggy some programs won't run on them, one can't select multiple messages through the touch screen etc etc. I find CRC's 19588 is good, and stable. 19900 was good too, ... so not entirely sure I just want basic programs like Yahoo! Go to run on any of the builds after 19588 It is a small thing but it's important for me

WB matt!! Sure would love to play with your kitchen again! been missing that for a while now!

Naked and home grown in the USA
Cook one up great naked chef, one from the USA!!! Like the olden days!!

Please Please Please
Matt can we PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEE have one of your famous clean ROM's? This is what I have been searching for so I can run my programs on an 8MB PP for some speed and stability.

hi there mattk_r
simple request, please please please make a stupendously stable and fast rom using ANY of the wm6.1 builds
ultimately, 'which' build wouldnt matter if you made the final one really stable and fast as the feature sets are pretty much the same, you dont always have to have the absolute latest build!
and of course if you could offer a bigstorage and a nonbigstorage option and of course make them UC compatible
looking forward to this, your name rings a bell though, were you over on the wizard forums too?

Hi Matt!
like in the past...a lean, mean, & clean wm6.1 with a tilt build.

Great to see you back Matt. I had used all your versions up to 9 til you left us. I have since been using PDACorners ROM's, now V.17 and they have been the best since you left. V.17 is using build 20270 and it is the cleanest and most stable ROM right now for me. Can't wait to see you work your "Clean" magic.

Happy to do so.
Is there a good "virgin" ROM dump around? Without the manifest files (dsm) files, PKGTOOL won't build the packages properly from a compiled NB image.
Not trying to be lazy, but the two compiled ones I've tried with 20270 are this way.

Well 20270 doesn't allow selecting multiple messages to be deleted through the screen, must be some bug in the tmail.exe somewhere, too lazy to look, and not smart enough to fix it. 19588 seems OK so far. Doesn't corrupt my yahoo! go cab upon installation and allows me to select multiple msgs off the screen to 'delete' or 'mark as read' my 2c

The fastest rom so far with no issues that I could find is the 19214 rom. I got the PDAVIET one. Compare it to any other build out there and it rocks! Cheers.

Sounds good to me!

Extra vote here for the same request but I'm not sure if it can be done because I remember somewhere in the forum, someone mentioned that the PV roms cannot be dumped. Would be nice to have one that is stable and only the OS (Super Clean) so it will be fully customizable by the user.

The fastest rom for Hermes

Ok i m sick of downloading and installing slow roms

Thats a matter of opinion, but for me, the two that are the fastest are:
CRC v12.9 (use it myself)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392996
and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364216
Try using a 8meg PP for faster speed, and using the tweaks in sSchaps Advanced config (cache settings).
Also, using HTC Home always seems to slow my roms down, I just use Samsung time.

In my opinion, Schaps 4.40 beta is the fastest!

I just tried them both but the one i had was alittle bit faster
try schaps its the most complete rom so far.

PDACornerPro is very fast and stable. The Chef is also very helpful.

This is a little bit offtopic but... is Schap still developing for the Hermes?
I've been away for a while, still getting info out of the forum (loads to read )
Thanks

which ones have u tried? what apps did u install? which apps do u load & run simaltaneously? what tweeks have u performed?
For me all the recent chefs lite wm6.1 6mb pp are very fast!

Thats a WM6 rom, in the most part they are a bit faster, but have less features, its also a very old rom.
With CRC v12.9 you will need to do the cache size tweeks (for the naked ones anyway) they make it a lot faster.
Anyway, just flash all the roms you can, that's what i did, then stoped on the one that worked for me.
Flashaholic, and a good few days without a flash, i can feel the withdraw pains

i am happy
with my signature, can you define a 'slow rom' until you can define what's 'slow' and what's 'fast' none of us can really help.
Edit also, after trying two roms? and you're sick already? geez, I flashed 30 different roms before I decided where to go. you need to do the same, unfortunately.

IMHO, since the question is which ROM and no mention if its WM6 or WM6.1.....for fastest and stable ROM, I would go for Schaps WM6 rom. During that time when I was using his rom, almost all cooked WM6.1 are not yet stable so I didnt jump in the WM6.1 bandwagon.
Only lately did I try to WM6.1 because its been long now since Im using Schaps and I want something new and I want to go with the flow, which is WM6.1 roms Right now, my only choices are PDACorner and CRC's and I think almost everyone agrees with me with those two roms
however, I still miss the stability of Schaps rom

Best Artemis ROM

We initially had a poll on the best ROM for artemis.
That was a while ago and we have a lot of new chefs in business cooking wonderful ROM's
Can any of you please start a similar poll with all the new ROMS which has come out.
I think we should do this to give the best chef among all a little more deserved recognition.

sure v should have a poll once again

I'm new here myself, trying to learn to cook some roms, I've tried about any rom I could find and the fastest and most stable so far is meschle's 3.01 vanilla, yes it is wm6.0 and does need some extra programs installed, but I prefer installing thing rather than removing them afterwards (which can be tricky). I'm also fond of gullum's TF2D beta5, but he is also not going to make any new versions anymore.
I want to make own rom from a very clean wm 6.1 source and only do minimal customisation and let the end-user and myself decide what apps to install. I don't see the need to pack a rom full of apps that get outdated when newer versions of the apps are released with no way of properly uninstalling it.
If anyone has some new clean wm6.1 XIP/SYS sources please pm me.

My best ROM is YuE_v11.1_3.15.20755_ExtraClean_WWE, cuz it is very fast, stable, and Roomy. Ver 14 had a bunch of faults. I never liked other versions, cuz of being stuffed with too many softwares I never used.

Artemis Touch 4.02 Full with 4 sided cube,
the first one i ever ''flashed''to my htc p3300.
i must say it works very good but it takes 100% cpu usage on this phone unfortunally.
now im flashing''no nonsonse_6''on this moment to my phone for faster working(i hope)............
installed,it looks not fancy but it looks not bad.
simple use but i am really searching for a rom that is fast,and with nice graphics and programs(like live messenger)
edit;
[rom][wwe][01.02.09]achilles Manila 2d (ce Os 20764.1.4.3) version 3 YouTube[online]
is the one i installed now on my tmobile mda compact 3(p3300)nl edition
even as they say its impossible to get a wireless connection with an tmobile mda3 compact.....
with this rom i now have access to the wireless internet!
working great,just installed windows live messenger and it works like a charm!

Is there any real reason why to leave BsB?

I have BsB 651G for a while. I'd like to switch to some newer build, but is there a reason? Can I get something new?
BsB is bugfree, looks nice, has about 58mb freeram after sr.
Is there any newer rom fill this criteria?
Thanx for your opinion.

not really it's prob the most solid ROM ther eis for the touch diamond IMO, there is quite a few chefs that have produced ROMS with Sense but its upto you if you wanna try them, i always trying something different but always go back to the ROM in my sig, have you tried Xandroid yet thats fun to play with

yep, i'm watching denstereo's ROM development, but why to flash this? Yes, it has newer kernel, but it doesn't bring any real diference. But 43mb free ram vs 58mb is the real diference

BsB
There is no ROMs out there that can compete with BsB - I have tried A LOT of ROMs from here and all of them have bugs apart from BsB
I use my Diamond every day and never have any issues with BsB ever
I will only flash another ROM if Windows Mobile 7 gets ported to Diamond

as have many on here changed ROMS so many times now i think its down to personal choice on what you think is better, some people love BSB ROMS some people prefer other things each to their own, we could give you loads to try but you should just back up everything and give it a go we all no its not to much hassle to swap ROMs so just give them a try if you dont like go back to what you like

a nice and diplomatic response trev.
@davidm2: I just dropped by coz I see my ROM listed in the tryouts. Someone suggested its close to BsB ... I know I'm nowhere close.
But all I can say is that BsB ROMs or for that matter, any other ROM in this forum can never be emulated even if the chefs share their entire kitchen with other fellow chefs. Each chef has a defined style and persona which finds its way to blend into their ROMs.
Fans of BsB will always aim for very high memory, zero bugs/high-stability, speed, and simplicity coupled with a crisp UI. And as trev puts it, its really down to personal choice. Give it a try, you can always switch back to your preferred best.
I've been cooking my own ROMs for a while now, but every time I goof up and need some sanity, I flash back to BsB myself coz I know thats the best of the lot (for me).

Thanks for opinion. There're those ROM's left on my "list": Benko's, l3v5y's and RaL.GT1F. I like the squared buttons, so Benkos, l3v5y's are out for now (seems to be fiddling reason? and what is about?). It looks like I'll try RaL.GT1F. (one question: there is one bug at BsB after all: ezinput(keyboard) in landscape mode isnt show correctly, the keyboard is a little bit wider than the screen, right part is cutted-off, the 'P' letter is missing and half of 'L' letter is missing. Has the RaL.GT1F this bug too?)

Although I can't confirm this (I'm using a non-ezinput version of my ROM now), but I did install the Ezinput cab (same version) and it didn't cut the sides off (i.e it works just fine).
I've asked for the guys to check if it exists in the main ROM nevertheless. I'll do so too when I flash next. Also, posted a reply to your query there as well.

Hi I have been using BsB since nearly the beginning, but since he switched over to the HD2 been looking for new rom. have tried a few including xandroid but have stoped with Energy Phoenix 2..very nice stable rom like you said it is loaded but it works well while we wait for the bugs to be ironed out of xandroid
