Need some advice.
I did look in the forum but couldn't find an answer to my question(s)
1 - I'm looking for a ROM which is stripped to the bone with only what is necessary for the Hermes to function as a phone with Bluetooth and WiFi.
I don't want to install office, voice command etc. just want to run a view programs like setup operator, pocket informant, opera, phonesuite, mobile shell and pocket breeze.
2 - Is it also possible to to build this into a ROM or do I need to install this after a new install manually.
For the commercial programs it's not the intention to install these programs cracked, I have a licence for all those progs so filling in my serials after installation is no problem.
To answer your first question, it is best to install a Clean rom, there are many of them around. Shadow and Faria seem to be the most popular. Have a play with them and if they are not stable enough for you then try a WM6 one, Shamanix rom also worked well. My fav WM6 rom was Berds SS_1-25. It was the bare minumim and worked flawlessly. Only my opinion.
For the second, just download the cab files for them and keep them on your storage card. There is no problem with installing them into the rom after the update is complete.
Happy flashing...
I did a search for Berds SS_1-25 in the forum but couldn't find it. Do you have a link to it?

I believe this is the one he was talking about

6.0 rom
Search BlackDragon... he made a sweet 6.0 rom with 85 freekin megs free.... very bony rom
very quick also.. 6.1 go with a new pdviet rom
IMHO the lightest is Pandora naked for WM6.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365604&highlight=pandora+naked
PDviet build 19900 is clean ROM. B&C and G&C has very few apps included.
You can also cancel the extended ROM setup and get a clean install of any ROM
thnx for the reply's.
Now I only like to know if it is possible to build the commercial programs into a rom.
anyone?

Hi,
is there any way to get pure WM6 ROM, with no addons, no extroms - only WM6 OS and nothing else ?
And is it possible to extract (or get somewhere) separate .cab files for applications that come with various cooked ROMs ? (HTC touch app, Comm manager, ...)
thx a lot,
m.
When You upgrade to any WM6, the update procedure writes also the ext.rom, and later on the addons will be installed from the exrom. To avoid that, make a hardreset, and when the screen appears, that the addons would be installed within .. seconds, make a soft reset. With ExtRom_utility, You can make this rom visible, and You can backup the files located in the exrom to your PC.
I flashed a WM 6.5 rom to my MDA Compact III, but I want to go back to the original HTC WM 6.1 ROM that was on it.
I downloaded that, but I don't want all the stuff, just the OS.
Im going to flash it, but when do I exacly need to do the resets?
Or can I just delete the ExtROM, or whats in it?
=======================================================================
I flashed it and I saw wat you meaned.

You can use HTCRIE to edit RUU_signed.nbh from WM6 ROM , then you can add or reduce the applications that you deem necessary Good Luck
Wow guys, this topic is like, 4 years old! I really appreciate the fact that you use the search function, but still, if a thread is older than a YEAR and there hasn;t been a post in it, create a new thread.
But if the thread has nothing to do with ROM development, as in this case, post the question in General.
I'm closing this.
Hello everyone..
I recently installed a ROM that came with office mobile already installed. Since this is a Manilla ROM i need every bit of storage available, and i would like to uninstall office mobile, so i can install it again in the sd card.
Is there any way to do this (uninstall it completely)?
I searched a lot for info about this but couldnt find any.
Thanks
If it is cooked into the ROM, you can't uninstall it. You can search for some of the lite/clean ROM's here that don't include Office. This is the newest lite ROM that I use.

Thank mikehippe. I already tried V8 of the joshkoss's ROM, but honestly i needed something more stable.
Now im using ROM 3.62.502.19 (Manila2D) HERMES wich is the best Manilla Rom i've tested. This Rom comes with office installed, so thats why i was asking about how to uninstall it.
Thanks again
Hi,
I was wondering if theres a very fast and stable Rom who only has WM6.1 and anymore working with my diamond.???
Thank you very much for your answer
That's exactly what I want, too...a ultra CLEAN and FAST rom with just base system, so that I can install any soft I want.
There are plenty...
Look at the chef's LITE/LIGHT editions. Many of these do not contain Manila.
Chef 'swtos' just released an updated LIGHT ROM with no Manila.

Hi guys, I've read the entire internet looking for a solution...!
and I'm not able to find a solution... (probably because of my english skills...)
I've just bought an htc diamond on e-bay and it has installed a non-official rom which it has several troubles: Rom version 1.37.412.2 ESN
I've downloaded the last available rom in spanish (?):
(RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship)
from the htc spanish site but when I try to install it an ERROR[294] : INVALID VENDER ID, comes up. I've read about Upgrading, cooking, flashing and about Hard-SPL, but I'm not sure to understand rightly enough, so here's my question:
What should I do to install the rom downloaded from htc?
I understood that I have the problem because the hard-spl installed on my diamond causes the problem, so I guess I should install a new one...but which one?, and if I'm wrong... where may I find the information to solve my problem? I'm getting nuts of trying so many different things...
Lot's of thanks even if you don't answer, it's been a long read!

It's not that difficult, trust me...
My personal favourite ROM which sounds like it fits your needs is Suiller's Dia Duit ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=440683
The beauty of this ROM is that, you simply put all your CABs into a directory on your Internal Storage. On hard reset / flashing, a script will automatically all your CABs for you! There's also a lot of other stuff that can be done (search for tweakPers.mscr in his thread).
nice nice really interesting... thank you people for your tips! i hope we can help someone with the same problem ))

ultra clean and fast?
for me is fast o.k.
for ultra clean i can use my ... ähm .. what was the name ... boah, i am thinking but ....
aah its called HANDY
(dont angry, only joke (i hope))

When you look at people's custom roms, usually the ones without TF3D are called classic, lite, ultra lite, no manila etc.
The other thing you can do is go to settings and Today and remove the TF3D check box. TF3D will remain installed but it will no longer be running. You can get TF3D back by rechecking the box in Today settings.
make a list of no wanted and wishes language and wait a little bit.
you will get than your wishes rom.
Hi
If i flash Windows 6.5 ROM available in this Hermes forum to my hermes (JasJam) and i do not like to keep WM6.5 and want to go back to 6.1ROM.
Is is possible to Flash WM6.1 ROM ?
Can any one answer it clearly about this.Thanks
Yes you can.... If you have Hard SPL V7 then use the SD card method to change rom.
Before you do though, try out Tai_SW's 21109 wm6.1/6.5 hybrid. It doesn't have the titanium today addon or the hexagon app menu. Very quick and no real problems. Pretty lite rom with a large amount of storage space and ram, no games.
Cheers...
Thanks.. i searched but i think the 21109 v10 gloden globe links are no longer there
someone has this in signature and search result no longer provide links
GoldenGlobe V10 by TAI (5.2.21109)
can you post link please for downloading thread?

Not Golden globe, I believe that is similar to a lot of the newer ones. It was just 21109 wm6.5.
Gypsygirl13 gave you the link, the first one.
Heres the link to the rom I'm using - http://www.4shared.com/file/83529289/5673e8c6/V5_Lite2G.html

can this be done without hardspl..? coz my device already been hardspl before..? do i have to hardspl again before flash it back to 6.1..?
i'm always using sdcard method to flash roms, coz it's lot easier than using activesync, and less brickable (cmiiw)
thank you

If you have hardspl installed, then you never have to install it again. You can flash any hermes roms. Happy Flashing
I dont see why you would want to come back, but if you for some krazy reason decide to come back... yes its possible.
while i know all the rage is with the TouchFLO and other GUI's, i really don't want them. I like SPB Shell so much better since it's very customizable as to where and what you want on your screen.
with that being said, i would like a simple ROM with just the basics like:
internet sharing
3d drivers (if possible)
VC
contacts
camera
remote desktop
active sync
adobe
comm mananger
IE (with PIE)
java
notes
pictures and vid
sim manager
voice recorder
ZIP and
GPS apps (quick gps and maybe tomtom or garmin).
no opera or youtube or fancy tele-pad (it actually interferes with Privus Caller-ID). I install a lot of my own apps like Core Player and games.
is there such a ROM for a user like me? I find all these extra UI's to take up a lot of space which otherwise can be used more efficiently.
if there is such a ROM, please direct. Thanks!!

Hi, i dont like 6.5, tried 3 ver, and don't like it at all.
Is there some completely verified and lite ver 6.1
Don't have the nerves to download and try couple of them...
Please...
try the lite versions of either ENERGY rom or GEN Y rom they are dependable roms
but i would like to reinstate that roms are ery personal things and experiences vary among users depending on their core needs...
ALL THE BEST n PEACE
Thx,
i used Dia Duit ROM v1.6.7 "official" - based on 2.11.70.1
If it's not sutable, I;l try it.
Quick question on clarity:
IF i download the RUU, do I still have to hard-SPL my diamond? i don't seem to understand what Hard-SPL is used for if RUU is packaged in the ROM upgrade.
any unofficial ROM and u need hard SPL
OK, so i tired to get Hard-SPL to get on my Diamond and failed.
apparently i have hard-spl 1.93 vs. 1.23/24?!?!????
what are my options now? i would like to try different radios (maybe even the polaris' radio since i get GPS lock no longer than 2 minutes while the diamond 1.00.25.08 takes... well, if it did would be a miracle).
how now brown cow? what can i do now to get newer/better radio roms?
thanks!!
