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?

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 guys,
I think some of the diamond user want to have a clean ROM similar to the KORAND 3.1 ROM (Prophet). Is there any rom cooker outside which can make this? I love the hard work from all cookers, at this moment I use the A.Z.T.O.R. V6 GER and I think at this moment it is the perfect rom for me, but I miss a clean rom, where I can add all the stuff which I want to have, by this ROM I can also made it, but I lost a lot of space and some program like QuickMenu have somte troubles with the TouchFLO, also when it is deactivated.
Greetings
zjay
could u define clean splease ?
you mean without all the oem applications like htc album touchflo manila ?
if thats what u mean u could keep your eyes open about http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429682 widberry light
Yes without the HTC stuff, so tht you have an ROM similar to a blank windows mobile 6.1, but with your tweaks and drivers. I saw the ROM develpment WildBerry, I don´t read the hole thread, is it the inquired ROM?
check swtos clean or naked roms. they are unreal fast. or search.
Does the WILDBERRY ROM has got all advantages from your A.Z.T.O.R. Rom, f.e. new driver, dynamic PP, tweaks in the system?

Files inside TF3D is called or named, Manila, so you need to know what version of TF3D you are using. Go to your Settings Tab, then About and you can see what version of TF3D you are using.

Hey,
I definitely understand your confusion. I'm absolutely no newcomer to Windows Mobile, but I was pretty baffled when I arrived here after a few years gone.
Let's see if I help you somewhat...

You're the right place now - this forum where your thread here has been moved to, is the place for HTC Touch HD.

You propably use Manila v2.0, which means that themes for Manila v2.1 and v3, are not compatible with your device.
BUT!
First off, you should take a look at giving your phone a new ROM.
The kitchen cooks for TouchHD here on xda, are FABOLOUS! Right now, your Touch HD is slow as hell. Try and swipe the menus. Notice the lags. Enter the application pane. Swipe up and down. See?
The kitchen cooked ROMs in here, replaces the one you have - and gives you up to 20x faster performance (no kidding, and no exhaggeration).
I myself, use Laurentius26 v3.55 (www.laurentius26.net -- you have to become member of his website to download the rom, but it's all free, so don't worry).
Most people like Dutty's ROMs also - they're great too!
No matter what you choose, I promise you'll feel that your Touch HD has transformed into a speed monster. Especially in the menus!
Oh yeah - and as a side dish, you get the newest version of Manila and TouchFlo3D. Personally, I think that the version in the Laurantius26-ROM that I use, is so super-duper, that I don't want to spend time looking for other themes. I have thought of designing/programming a completely new GUI myself, but I gave up, as I don't have Microsoft Visual Studio.
But you have the oppertunity if you patch with a new ROM. I highly recommend you do that first thing.

Your manila can be found by going to settings tab in TF3D and then scrolling down to 'About'
It should state something like TouchFLO 3D 2.1.38658.2. The first 2 numbers i.e. 2.1 in this case state which manila you have
There appears to be no official update from HTC for a Indian rom. You can however update to any coooked rom by using either USPL or HSPL. I'd recommend you follow this guide and read up on the wiki. Available cooked roms can be found in this forum.
EDIT
Any further queries regarding rom upgrade should be posted in this thread or thread of rom you decide to flash to.
Try and keep this thread on themes please.

Then you don't have manila 2.0 or 2.1.
No one can provide you with the information 'which rom is best' as every rom appeals to different people. Best thing you can do is read each rom thread and make your own conclusion. As a pointer, the most widely used roms generally cooked by the following guys:
Duttythroy, Miri, NRGZ28, Laurentius26 & kwbr.
All of the latest roms generally use manila 2.1 and either wm6.1 or wm6.5 (should say on title of each thread)

I want to install this ROM

[ROM][WWE][22.07.2009] Miri WM 6.5 23009 :: V 25.0 [ONLINE]
So will you help me how to start.
And after the Upgrade my Phone is Unser Warranty or NOT.
and How can i restore the Orignal ROM after the Upgrade, if i want to do that in future.
For help on flashing the ROM, read the guide in my signature.
For how to restore the stock ROM, read this thread where it says: How to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!
Also, it will be under warranty IF you restore it before you send it back for warranty purposes. If you send it back with a custom ROM/SPL on it HTC will most likely not warranty it.

I saw your Dummy Post.
Am not a techie person. So help me how to do that. Which MEthod is Easy
It really doesn't get any clearer/easier than that. That is a step-by-step guide. If you can't follow that I would suggest not flashing your device, or get someone to do it for you.
You should also read up on the Wiki. It will help you out a lot too.
Hi,
I'm new to the forum, hence would appreciate some guidance & advice. Bought the Touch HD recently, and am keen to have the very nice looking
TF3D/manila 2.5 interface that's flying arnd the forum. But don't know how to go about doing it.
Is there a step-by-step dummies guide somewhere in the forum?
Frm what I can gathered, i think i need to flash my ROM before I can do anything. I see there are so many ROMs around but which should I use?
Info abt my device .. WM6.1 Pro, CE OS 5.2.20757 (Build 20757.1.4.0).
Thanks in advance for the help.
Hello and welcome
There is indeed a superb dummies guide written by Digital Outcast here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
You will need a rom with TF3D 2.5. Take a look in the rom section and decide for yourself which one to go for based on what people have said in the threads. Bare in mind you can always flash another rom if you don't like it anyway...
At the time of writing Miri's Rev7.1 and Dutty's Leo R2 are the only roms with the very latest TF3D 2.5 (sometimes referred to as 2.6 as it has a weather panel and animated weather on the home screen).
Good luck!
Edit: forgot Miri also has a WM 6.1 rom with TF3D 2.5, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547278, the two above use windows mobile 6.5
Also, an often forgotten website:
The Wiki Site
The wiki is very useful, with lots of step-by-step instructions on how to flash your ROM, add themes, flash radios, etc. Give it a shot!
There is also another 2.5 ROM from Efsane at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=553888
with the latest WM 6.5 combined

You would be best served flashing a new ROM in order to upgrade TF3....and also doing some reading about what versions are available.
There is Manila 2.1 w/sense and Manila 2.5...
Read more here and see all the custom ROMS:

i was searching a way to update tf3d. best without flashing.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the help!
Yes there befor years i found a CAB to update only the old Touch FLO with newer version but i don`t remember where is that CAB
Also the best way to feel the diference is to flash new ROM with Latest 2.1 Sense manila
TY tsalta
Then i must think in flash my device with a new ROM.
Any recomendation? I prefer a light and fast one, i will charge with the software i like later, but prefer one with the basic OS apps, office, and the latest manila. If its possible , in spanish.
thanks all again for your help!!
The Fastes ROM from my expirience are NRG ROMs they are not very clear i mean about the APPS but have some usefull apps cooked anyway the ROM is good and fast if you want bug free rom for everyday use and all to be smooth flash NRG 21898 with manila 2.1Sense 30March version and all wil be fine.
its WW rom not Spanish.
This is if you want to have a good ROM just to flash and to go ... if you want a super super faster rom without Manila and etc.. to use it for other i mean for some UI shell then you can flash some really CLEAR rom that is without Manila without Titanium and without APPS.
+1
The cab to update Touchlfo3d is huge if I rememeber and very very very slow and laggy once installed.
Flash to EnergyRom, very quick and stable and beautiful...
TYSM to all
just one more thing... a link to an easy explained way about how to flash my device?
thanks all again and excuse my english please
