I have never flashed an unofficial ROM to my phone before, but I am looking for one that is lighter than the HTC official ROM, but also stable and one that is easy to install. What would anyone recommend?

Hello all,
Yes I'm a N00B asking a N00B question......
I'm wanting to update my phone (vodafone v1605) with the new firmware.
I'm also looking at upgrading my OS to WM6 Black Pro V3.
Shall I upgrade the firmware first then the OS?
Is WM6 Black Pro V3 the newest version or is there a better version available.
I have been looking through the forum and threads but there are so many my head is starting to hurt!!
If anyone is willing to help me out then I'd be very greatfull, as I dont want to fry my handet.
Cheers.

the WIKI is a good source of info, there is also a guide here on how to upgrade, the process is pretty much the same for all WM6 ROMS

Is the Radio in the link newer than the official Vodafone release?
And, is the WM6 version the latest, as it seems there may be another version??
Hi Koldphusion, welcome to forum
Cannot answer the question about radio, as am on orange uk. Searching/reading Wiki should help with this though.
But the latest black rom is available on http://wmblack.info , 3 options, also there is a link there to Mr Vanx's upgrade guide which will walk you through upgrades.
Good luck
Hey guys,
I got a problem here.
Every time I start up my device I get the text ''This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thanks you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers.'' And it's stuck on that then.
I can't turn my device off, and when I soft reset my device it goes to that screen instantly even before the PIN-prompt. I don't know what's causing this, I have Dutty's HD Xtreme 1.7 rom installed which I wanted to flash to the 2.0 version but then this started.
How do I turn my device off so I can make it sync with my pc to put the image on it for a new rom? Or atleast make this message go away since I'm stuck on it now and can't do anything with my device.
Help is MUCH appreciated!
Thanks alot!

--woops posted this in themes, will repost in general touch hd forum!
do a hard reset n select a date say a month ago.... then it will let u sync with ur pc so u can reflash
It's a known problem that appeared in Dutty 1.8 ROM it's fixed in 1.9 and 2.0. you'll want to upgrade your ROM
I recommend you to upgrade your cooked ROM, it seems that your ROM is not a stable version
isnt this the time bomb effect on duttys roms he has it in more roms
flash over to a newer version

This is a tutorial for the Diamond. It will NOT apply to Blackstone, but the principles are the same!

as its very slow and keeps crashing.
as said above its the vodafone one but my network is 02 im using on it. as it was already unlocked.

You can install all the ROMs you'd like, but to find out more, go to the Raphael ROM Development forum. Read on how to hardspl your device and install any custom ROM you'd like. Thread closed.
Hi guys,
This is my first post so please forgive my ignorance. I have just received a brand new HTC Hero from Orange UK as a replacement for my previous Hero that went faulty.
Anyway, I really want to install the Hero 2.1 ROM. However I have only ever messed around with OS changes when I used to install leaked updates to my BlackBerry.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a comprehensive guide to doing everything I need to do to install Hero 2.1 ROM or explain it to me?
Thank you all for any help that you can offer.

keep in mind that the 2.1 roms available are not fully functional yet. if you want something stable with everything working as intended go for mcr3.0, but that shouldn't stop you from testing new roms! just a note.
double post
Thanks for the link. I'm a pretty big idiot when it comes to this stuff but I'm always willing to give it a shot.
Is there much difference between MoDaCo 3.0 and the 2.1 ROM? I'm just looking for something that is a bit faster or more up to date than a 1.5 Orange UK OS.
For faster than stock, I would suggest modaco 3.0, since 2.1 will be on the way in the new year, and it isn't quite ready for everyday use yet.
But its up to you. Just don't go installing any rru updates if you want to root or install a custom ROM in future.
check out changelog of each of their final releases..and u'll wats added to them ..and wats still not working
RRU updates?

if you make that a question you might get an answer.
if you want speed go for modaco. the 2.1 roms tend to lag here and there, and as i said are not suitable for daily use. they work great for an early preview, but that's it.
Ahh OK sorry to keep on asking what are probably inane questions. I'm guessing since nobody has mentioned RRUs with MoCaDo, that they aren't involved.
I'll see how that ROM goes, hoping it uses HTC Sense UI as I really like the look of it but it's not essential.
I think I have to update the Radio for the MoCaDo update.
I'll probably post again if the change doesn't go well or I can't do it LOL
Thanks again guys.
Hi.. I am now interested in improving my good old Compact IV. As I got the Desire and the Compact IV is out of warranty anyway - I would like to give it a try to keep it as a good 2nd handset.
I know I should 'search' the threads. I have done that... But there are so many here, with long threads following and its hard to know which is actually proven to be good. What I want is a stable ROM, thats fast and whitout any major bugs etc. Could you pls let me know which one(s) I should consider. There are so many here!!
Cheers

Don't forget hardspl first before flashing rom.
Best ROM you can get with all the latest new soft in it are the ones from Yozgatg.
Then you have some ROMs made from the base of Yozgatg, with some new addons like MEMO ROM, or the one from Omniwolf.
