Smart Phone newbie need Advice on ROMS - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

Greetings guys I just want ssome advice on ROMS because I've been seeing alot of ROMS with pagepools Im im confused which one would fit me right now I have S2P S2U2 and Im using SwiftBL WWE v7 full with 16mbPP now to my understanding the bigger the pagepool the faster responsewill be?
I use my phone listening to music 40% of the time using the S2P which Ive read an cpu intensive application. I guess my question is that the ROM I got right now is the right one for me? I am open to suggestions.
right now I have these on my diamond
regedit
pocketCM for VGA
TomTom v7
S2P with about 300 songs
S2U2
NoCurtains
and about 200 mid-high res pictures
ps. and no I dont want an Iphone one of my buddy have one and all I hear is complaints about his Iphone

If you ask me, you have made a good choice. If it's running OK, keep it.

if it works for you keep it.
i use the same rom,its the best one for me.
if you want something differant try each one till
you find the one for you.
bit like women really.lol.

thanks guys
thanks for the advice guys so far the swiftBl v7 16mbpp responds fast but now and then i get error message especially syncing with outlook contacts sometimes when I try to put contact pictures the PocketCM gives the stopped responding message but I can live with it . I was saking because I really dont know anything about pagepools I got some Ideas on what Ive read so far but thats it I kinda got the general Idea on what PagePoll is for.
My first HTC phone was the wizard and from then on I liked HTC verry much this Diamond is my second HTC phone and Im verry pleased with it but the only thing I hate is those ignorant people that think that my HTC diamond is some kind of Iphone and I keep on telling them that "heck no this is far better than Iphone"
Id like to thank all the guys who works hard taking their own time to make this good phone better for free!!!

iPhone CAB

For Those Who Wanted An iPhone ROM, Heres A CAB That Should Do Most Of What You Want.
Here It Is iPhone.cab
It Includes:-
Grumps - iPhone App
inphyy - iPhone App Configurer
A_C - Slide2UnLock

And A Welcomehead BMP That I Found On The Forum.
Hope It's Ok Not Fully Tested It Yet, Please Leave Feedback.

Thx for the release?...are there any problems if I want to remove the CAB...in case I have some problems?

Gooooood question!
I'd like to take look, just fer ****s & giggles ye know? don't wanna screw up my current install now. I'm in far too happy a place, ROM wise
Already tried it out...but it is useless for me...respons...like 3-5 sec after tapping a button...5mb less free RAM...this is too much for me..
Regards,
Primoz
All I can say is that the Dialer will not work correctly on 8252 with CIN 3.5.2. There are some alignment issues with numbers.
Also it's impossible to enter the settings for the skin and PHONE icon not linked correctly.
Best Regards
Why is this in the WM6 forum? Does the CAB only work on WM6?
It probably doesn't belong in this topic, but why don't we try and change that?
Would there be interest in making a WM6 ROM that looks and acts almost like an iPhone? I can see there being some disadvantages and no doubt a lot of people will miss the today screen, but there might be a few people interested none the less.
Maybe it would be better to keep it as an "iPhone CAB" with everything on it, so that users can try it and remove it quite easy?
What other programs would we need in the ROM do you think?
I'm thinking it would be good to try and embed Piscel Browser, or similar at least, so that you have the fancy finger scrolling on websites.
Maybe we could add the ringtones as well....

Why not ! Could be fun to try at least, providing performance didnt render it unusable.
@Pc78
To Deal With The Response Times, Select Settings And You Should Be At The Configurator App, You Can Change The Response Times With This App.
@.VIBE
It Should Uninstall Correctly, As That Option Was Selected With WinCE CAB Manager
@dusank
Strange The Phone Link Works Fine On My Phone, Maybe Try It Again After A Soft Reset.
Cheers
Follow The Links That Are Posted In The First Post, For Information On How To Configure The Individual Apps.
Cheers
Does it include the filedialogchanger made by ??? which is posted with iConfig?
and could you write which versions of the apps in the .cab?
sorry, but im a little lazy atm so i havent downloaded it..
Problems with Dialer
This is my first post, can you put xelashiu WM6 version of the dialer in the cab file. because of the problems with key pad numbers lining up, otherwise great app Many Thanks

GREAT CAB
Great cab, I was just looking forward to install a cab like these, but has only problem with the dialer, I hope can be fix. Thank you for the great work.
This CAB is very nice, but it was eaier to configure an iPhone theme using WAD with all the godies. Plus, you can put the icons wherever you want and add or delete them.
Unfortunately WAD is buggy and creates a soft reset from time to time. Other than that it's a nice app to play with!
I really like the start for this app... iContact is my favorite cause its a Stylusless UI. Now if everything else is ported it would be awesome!!! The dialer is a good start too but really needs work with simplifying it. It doesn't need to be that complicated and the look can be polished too. I'm willing to work on it with the developer if you need more of my feedback. I'm an interface designer by trade so please use me
I AM WILLING TO PAY IF SOMEONE WERE TO MAKE THE ENTIRE iPHONE OS AS A CAB OR WM6 REPLACEMENT!
Anyone else?
I'm a software developer with a fresh mind straight from Uni...so if anyone wants to team up let me know and I'd be happy to start on this project.
Slither I'm up for it!
I'll design the interfaces... You make them work!
Deal or No Deal?
Oh btw which direction would you like to go Cook our own ROM or CAB?
Deal
I like the CAB direction...btw I'm working full time so i'll dedicate time for the project mainly in the evenings and whenever I get time during work. PM me for design thoughts you have.
Cheers.
slither & and spidey
im excited to see what you guys will produce...
Sweeeeeettt!

Brand new to tytn, some advice needed pls..

Wass up guys and gals,
I've been happily using Imate Jasjar/cingular 8125 for the longest time but i just got the softbank version of HTC tytn. I must say that it feels very good using the tytn because of its size (specially if you are moving over from jasjar)
Anyways i upgraded my tytn to Schaps WM6 WWE version 3.54C but i am confused about the fact that my wizard still runs alot faster and stable then the tytn. i even get better signal on my wizard where as my tytn only gets 2 or 3 bars. I am also not able to play some vids in tcpmp even after trying this http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/htc-hermes/10022-updated-hermes-tcpmp-v0-81-unofficial-hybrid-media-player-all-codecs-here.html
Guys tytn is suppose to be an upgrade from wizard but it seems to me that wizard is a more stable device???
Let me know what you guys think about this and also are there any other ROMS better then the 1 i am currently running?? if so then pls do let me know u guys.
Thanks alot in advance
I'll be waiting for all your replies....
Farhan
Anyone??
Anyone ??
come on u guys, i would like to hear yr side of the story
Cheers
do you own a wizard with UMTS\HSDPA ?
I'm jocking , in many things you are right....
Well, I have not had the same experience. It is possible that some added apps you are running are causing conflicts. I would make sure you have the latest versin of whatever ROM you are using.
I have great stability with Black Satin and I hear that many are very good - Schaps (as you are using), VP3G, Sleuth (sorry if I missed any).
Try your rom with few other apps for a while and see if stability and responsiveness improve. Also, you probably do not want to judge reception based on bars, but rather by performance. Bars are just drawn on there - not really a strong indicator of reception quality.
Good luck.
Thanks alot for your replies u guys,
The only 3rd party software iam running is TCPMP and thats it nothing else.
I guess at this point my only and biggest issue is that iam not able to play some vids on tcpmp that played just fine on my jasjar
for example i have a 19 mb mpeg-4 clip that played just fine my on JJ but on my tytn it will play for about 5-10 secs and the gets stuck for 1-2 secs and so on...
I'll be a very happy man if there is a fix for this
Cheers
Anyone
Have you tried the ATIFix from Sleuth, take a look at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297717
And try to get a copy of CorePlayer 1.1, better performance than TMPCP...

I ran several different builds on my Wizard and am now running Schap's on my Hermes (have also run v3gp). In my experience the Hermes definitely runs faster.

ROMs and Should I?

Hello,
I keep seeing in these forums many threads regarding ROMs. I know what they are but my question is...why should I mess with it. I have an HTC Touch GSM with WM6. Now if you tell me I can get the interface in general to be quicker and the wifi to connect sooner, then i'm sold.
Cheers,
Paul

youll be very suprised at how much of a difference it makes to flash your phone with a rom itll make it faster due to the applications that u dont use water down ur programming memory and that can be released and run faster with them gone ...just look around and find one that fits ur use..promise u will be happy...just one thing to remember ..Read he insructions carefully and dont be scared to ask any questions ..have fun
Perfection,
I guess so, sound logical. What would be the best ROM for the HTC Touch GSM, I've always felt that the phone is a little hesistant, and I've done the best that i've could in stoping animations, sounds and some registry hacks. I mostly use the Office Suite, Messenger, Skype and Netfront Browser. Then on trips the mp3 player and cameras.
Just in case I have a whole assortment of 3rd party software like: Pocket CM, PCM Keyboard, SIP Change and SPB Mobile Shell, in case it's neccessary to know.
Also, how does one go abouts installing this, i have both Mac and PC, so as you said i'm not scared of asking or trying things out, my Treo 650 I've dont a hell a lot to it, and it still runs good, but the HTC is it's replacement.

Paul

Well i my self have a herald or atlas >>or normal people call it the t-mobile wing so i wouldnt know exactly which one is the best
for that model but i have done alot od flashing and u always need to just post a question to the senoir members they know alot of the info and work arounds.....I promise they will make a difference ..send them private message its faster..and if ur phone is a
touch then go to the forums that show the names >>> Vogue or the Elf just look at them to see whihc one looks like urs...speak or ask the question for better programming speed to on of the senoir members it should show if they are seniors under there names.
Will do, thanks again Perfection3.

Is there a light version of this v2.03.401.2?

Hi everyone, I've been looking for hrs but cant seem to find it? The situation is this: I have got a backup made with SPB of the following rom 2.03.401.2 WWE 12/23/08 radio 1.09.25.23 protocol 52.51.25.26U. This is the original rom and I installed all the stuff I need and made a backup, the problem is that the space afterwards is like 15mb storage which is very little as you may know, still got 40 odd program which is okish. I just wondered if any of the chefs made a light version of this that i'm missing?? By light I mean without the stuff that really does not work like updates, error reportin, customer feedback, radio, getting started, adobe and so on...I need things like streaming player and youtube and opera and a few more. Just to give you an idea... If I had a little more time to spare I would learn how to cook them but at the moment time is scarce with the little one and work and all that. Can anyone point me in the right direction, I need something stable though and fast. Many thanks to all in advance and to xda dev!
Keep up the good work guys you are the best!
FOUND!
I think I found what I was looking for. Thank you all

[Q] HTC Touch Pro2 T7373 problems

Hello all, now a week long y have a new phoon, (its a old boxed one thats is not seled and now for 100 euro new from the shop.
But now ym searhing the forum like a fool but nothing is clear now for me.
The only thing y now is that its a HTC Touch Pro 2 T7373 (from KPN shop in Holland) and Winmobile 6.5 is already on it and looks nice and the keyboard works fine and internet is mutch better than on my old Cruise BUT thats it, cant find many apps that are working on the old phone likes Voice command and the old menu's.
Have tryed Android but looks great but not all works now (special "cant find provider" so no callings) so back to Winmob 6.5 only on the phoon. Try to find Winmobile 6.1 here but the search engine dont find it. Is there a 6.1 rom for the Rhodium ??? when not ym giving myzelf a week to try to learn how this stupid thing will works on my way, when not its gone be placed on a second hands site because my old phoon works nicer and more things works on it. Cant play now some video's not even when y installed TCPMP but not working at all who works great on winmobile 6.1.
Ym disapointed in this nice looking T7373 and the bad Winmobile 6.5
Sorry for the bad typing Eng. but not learning it on school in Holland 40 years ago.
So can anyone give me a tip pleace.
- - - - edit- - - -
Finding (thanks google) Winmo 6.1 here but first testing with cooked 6.5. Test was bad stil no voice command and battery drain like a fool.
Charging now and tomorrow flash Winmo 6.1 on it. Think that will change not so much, so when that happens flash the original rom and sell the pfoon and go back to my old Touch Cruise who will do what y want him to do, and next time better reading before getting a new phoon.
Dont now why but why no reaction on some threads on the forum, not only this one but there are more help needed people who get no answers.
- - - - edit - - - -
Win 6.1 was the same here no succes, still missing some things like on the old phoon. So thats the end fore the Pro2, soon it will stay on the internet "for sale" im tyred off it.
if i where you i would read the rom development section and then try to flash a cooked rom. i have none of this problems you say accept voice commands. i dont use this voice commands so .
with a cooked rom i can do 3 days easy with average use.
and with android, have you let it settle for long enough.
with my phone its really crap and slow but if i wait long enough, so about 10 minutes then its way faster. my provider takes a short time before you see it in android so maybe you didnt wait long enough?
hope it helps a bit.
Def a cooked room such as EnergyROM should be the answer u r looking for.
