3 Michelin stars to the cooks of this forum!

I just thought I'd take a moment (one previously spent fiddling with my phone) to say well done and thank you to both Tom_Codon and meschle. Which ever flavour of ROM you've decided to put on your device I'm sure you'll agree that it has breathed new life into it.
I for one feel as if I just got a new phone. I haven't soft reset since Friday (which is a shame as I do like my animated splash screens), all my apps are set up, my home screen is just the way I like it....... so what do I do now?
Congratulations guys your efforts are much appreciated and I for one look forward to finding something more constructive to do with my time than hard-resetting my phone (well for a week or two anyway).
Cheers
Matt

I totally agree with you!
It's really amazing what these guys have created.. I don't know what would make my phone better than now. It's nearly perfect, just as I need it as my constant companion.
In this way, thanks mates..

lets be careful though
.....come on guys, I know the likes of Tom and Meschle are fantastic guys - with a lot of skill....but lets not make their heads TOO big....lol
If we big them up too much HTC might hear about them and take them away from us

I think Tom and many other cooks etc are well able to beef up the skills in HTC etc, but would not last long there.
Tom likes to produce new roms every month, but will be told 'that feature you just cooked is fantastic. We can sell that as the the new feature in next years model. We dont release new features unless we can sell them with hardware'

Thanks matt - this is encouraging Lets not forget fracoon - hope you finish your rom soon your beta is very promising

Well, I only know this forum for 2 weeks, but I could say that I am really impressed of the great work done on these ROMs.
I can't imagine the amount of work it is, but for sure the result is amazing

I'd like to put my 2 pennies in as well...
Thanks guys, tom meschle, fracoon and who ever else there is... i've had my xda orbit for a while, had other xda's b4, and work with loads of xda's, but since joining this forum, my xda has hit another level...
the time and effort u guys put in, my hat goes off to u guys... ive bin trying to cook my own rom, but failed miserabley, but i'll keep trying... im sure uguys will help
thanks again guys...

I can see a new MTV show coming soon; Pimp My PPC
Bunch of Cordon Bleu chefs in the kitchen taking some sad old OEM XDA and cooking away until voila! A new pimped-up device handed over to the poor ole charity case that will be able to now proudly be seen once more down the pub with his mates (a position for me I think )
Respect Gents, you make a good product so much better

Thanks to all
I also wish to thank all the people,who make ROMs and which happen to be much better than the original one.

This forum is a knowledge base for those who owns Pocket PCs. At times it is better than the manufacturers' support pages. To those who have created the Cook ROMS, you guys has shown a thing or two of how to make a ROM stable. Keep the good work.

If i can i would give 1000 Stars to the xda forum!!!
Is is the best i personally know and i deeply hope from the bottom of my heart that out friends like tom_condon and coolgadget come back.
There are only a few people kicking at the the forum - and most of us live the right spirit of the forum!!!

I think that it is interesting to buying a htc thanks to this forum because with original roms does not work well. 1000 stars to xda. We have new phones thanks to developers of the forum.

RESPECT
I absolutely agree with macguffin.
I've had tom's bb3.7 and 4.0, and I was totaly amazed! Until I join the xda forum I had my device with slow wm5, but now THANKS TO LOCAL GUYS I have brand new Artemis - I couldn't even imagine anything like this before. Now I have Meschle's ROM(seems better for me). I'm also sad that a lot of "internet newbies"(don't know how to search and ask) comes here but heads up guys...it's everywhere. I think if we stick together we can make this forum better!
Thank to all of you here who spend your nights with pimping our devices. You show me new way of using my phone. I don't wanna call your names because I know there are a lot of members who want to share their knowledge - no matter how they are skilled.
I'm sorry for my english, it probably isn't too good to describe my feelings.

/signed
Thanks to the chefs. Also many thanks to the developers who make the tools, which make these ROM's possible, thanks to Bepe, Pof, A_C, Gullum and NNcuong to mention just a few.

i am using B&B v3 Ger - Rom on my XDA orbit
and its much better than the original wm6. i love it!
hopefully soon the ger version of 4.1 will come out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Htc touch pro 2 or xperia x1..... Which one to buy ??

M in total confusion which one to buy
I liked d bigger screen of htc pro 2 and 5 row keypad over 4 rows of x1...
But I really really miss the 3.5 mm jack on touch pro2
Tp2 n X1 both are sexy... Awesome mobiles but x1s made of metal which is really cool..
Hardware specs are almost same except these two differences...
Which would you ppl prefer ?????

Welcome to the forum
LOL
Of course TP2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, you x1 may start to form cracks all over after a few months or less of use as most others have experienced... Read on...

Well if u must ask in the TP2 forum section then u should with out a doubt get the TP2 ASAP before they are sold out

This is so true!!
But it doesn't have to take a few months for thwe cracks to appear.
Some Xperias have had cracks out of the box.
My xperia cracked 5 times and then I got tired of it and got a refund.
The xperia is a very competent device, but the cracks make it useless.

I too wanna go for tp2 .... Any serious issues seen in tp2 ?? It will come to India after june15 th may be so I wanna checkout d hardware defects .. If u know any then mention it ......

I've had a few Xperias, as have some of my friends, and for us there's been no issue with cracks; it's not a problem everyone faces!
I've replied to your same question in the Xperia section, and reckon you should try both. I'm going to get TP2, compare with my Xperia, then sell the one I don't want, as both are great devices with relative good and bad points about each.

I would go for the TP2 because:
1. Bigger screen
2. Better keyboard
3. WM6.5 upgrade with TF3D v2
4. Tilt Screen
Only let down 3.5mm jack, blah! So let it be!

Not yet Orb, I'm waiting for my carrier tmobile to get it 7/22 so that I can have a less expensive upgrade, warrenty, and the correct 3G bands! But, Don't know if I can wait that long
How about U?

I have an xperia x1 for around 2 months now and its been a good and bad experience with it. From time to time its really slow because I use the stock rom and i hate the media player compared to the iphone. The good thing i like about it is definetely build quality as everyone who has seen it are all shocked of how sexy it is and the fact that I love the 3.5mm head phone jack as well as a radio panel thumbs up lol. Right now I'm already starting to take a look on the touch pro 2 as its really a pain to browse on the xperia but slider is super slick how this helps

TP2 without a doubt
TP2 all the way.
The X1 is a good phone but has many problems. I had one for a few months but in the end let it go as I just found myself getting more and more frustrated with it than actually enjoying it. With the TP2 your will be paying a premium being new if you have the money the choice is easy.
A major positive You will be getting great software/rom updates to come with WM 6.5 just around the corner which will give the TP2 a new face lift.
Just bought one tonight so I should have mine in a few days can't wait.

God damn you people and you're retarded post about this vs that and that vs this >.> How about you do this:
1. Compare specs of the two phones from the sites
2. Go to the individual sections of the phone and check out what people have to say about it.
3. If you see someone with both teh phones you're comparing, ask them.
Stop posting threads like this because people will only respond in their choosing. And you're asking in A TP2 section >.> Of course the answer will obviously be TP2 by majority. Try asking in the X1 section and you'll find the same for the X1.

I know it's hard to wait. I have been waiting since it was announced So jealous of the British users. Makes me want to go back and live in the UK again. Ha ha ha...
We don't get it until mid June. I don't know if I can wait either and just over it over the web... but that will cost me twice as much and I won't get any discount packages (data) from my carrier. Damn, it's a dilemma.

Yeah, he lacks the logic.
But to the OP, if you want an excellent MP3 player, get the Xperia X1
It's media panel is the best looking and the new version is really fast and intuitive. It also has 3.5 mm headphone jack. It also has a flash LED for the camera unlike the TP2.
Other than that Touch Pro2 is better than the Xperia.

I had this dilemma too but ruled out the X1 due to the cracks issue, some people have returned this phone like 7 times.
I'd choose the Diamond 2 over the X1 let alone the TP2.

Same case as you my friend
To wait or not wait

ive been using my xperia for 7 months now very good device, but not stock though you have to put touch-it rom or touch-x rom on the x1 basically the same UI as the touch pro 2...so if you get the X1 you can try out the UI and see how u like it ... great device i would say i have my bad days with it mainly cause of the rom i was trying at the time but great device...and ill get the touch pro 2 when it release for ATT to of course...who says people cant have more than one phone

mayday

guys...i'm in a dilemma and thought you could help me...
maybe this isn't the right section to do so but...didn't have the idea where else to post this
should i swap my hero for a touch pro 2
i love senseUI and android as it is beautiful,simple and so on,but lacks some software (which is not too important but...still counts)
i checked prices and tp2 is still more expensive (maybe because of the OS)
i have experience with abut 15 htc wm devices but never got hands on tp2...
so based on hardware vs hardware and your experience...what do you suggest

Hi farkub,
If I´m not mistaken you had an Universal right?
Go for Rhodium with no doubt!
Is the best hardware keyboard device to this date and 2010 models won´t be better.
Hero is ok but Android is too young and immature for now, perhaps in the future...
Just my opinion
Cheers and hope to see you on this section soon

nah i had artemis,himalaya,magician,hd,hero,diamond,hermes,herald,kaiser, and several more..but you probably ran into me in general and hermes section
i saw your poll...and thank you for it...
as for the immaturity i thought so too
but half of it went away when i got hands on hero...and the other half still stays (birth dates tell for themselves)...maybe 2.1 firmware is better but too bad i'll not have it when the htc's 2.1 upgrade comes out hehe
thanks for the opinion orb,much appreciated
as i thought i will go for tp2...at least for fun because it's a thrill to change and trade phones and to discover every of them
as we all know...there will never be a perfect one (the technology goes on and it's not quite good for the market to give the perfect one to the crowds)

hardware to hardware...
TP2 wins .. no brainer!!!!!
In all specs, TP2 is better than Hero!
Software???
I had the HTC Diamond
Windows Mobile sucks!!! It just does not have that many good software out there.. and when you find them.. Prices are higher.
I was waiting for the Diamond 2 to come out.. but got tired of waiting so I tried the Hero...
Wow... I dont see me going back to WM!
Hope that helped!

Wow!
You had a lot of devices, nice!
It´s great to know we will be seeing here!, it´s always nice to see familiar members
More than agree with the last part of your post!
Cheers,

so i swapped them today...let's see how long will this relationship last hehe
as for never coming back to WM....i wish i didn't but my current needs are a bit more pointed towards wm because of some specific software which can help me in my studies...i'm studying mechanical engineering and all that great software really helps out sometimes
i really liked android...and i still do,but this was a clean swap 1 for 1,and this still is a phone with better value...and i'm thinking about selling the tp2 already...it's brand new,no scratch on it....with all goodies...so if anyone wants we can talk...but till then i'm gonna enjoy it while i can
and believe it or not...i'm a windoze hater
but software forces me to use it...both in pc and ppc worlds
(but still i use ubuntu most of the time on my pc hehehe)
thank you dan and orb

TP2 owns every other phone I've had, including the sucky iPh*** 3gs..
Hardware vs hardware, it's the smoothest WM phone I've had, using Valkyrie's rom of course.
Update radio, and mess with the settings a little, and you go yourself a bestfriend.
Imo, I think android's are crappp.

oh yeah which rom do you people suggest
valkyrie seems to be a decent one....probably energy roms are good to but that tone of bluer really irritates me
and for the radio...i put blackstone radio rom to a diamond and the battery life doubled...so is the 1.17.**.** blackstone radio also good for this one or you suggest other maybe
and for messing with stuff...that's what keeps me with WM
i'm a tweak freak

Hi
If you are thinking on sell your TP2 let me know (PM)
As for ROM try Energy phoenix (Sense 2.1) this version:
EnergyROM_28008_RHODIUM_04.Dec.2009_Standard
If you can´t find it let me know and I´ll send it to you
Cheers,

is everything blue? ...hope not...i will pm you...but i have to find a way to get the payment...since accepting payments via paypal doesn't work here in bosnia (or that's at least what one guy told me)....any ideas?

If so PM me and send me your email account and I can try making a "test deposit" if 1USD to see what happens

i definitely agree with this. I love android but still to young for me. and the TP2 is an awesome phone, best htc i've ever owned and i always wow people when i pull it out. wouldn't have it any other way!
People know the hero, most peeps haven't seen the TP2 and the keyboard and screen blow them away. i've converted 2 crackphone users over to TP2!! {applause}

very cool device..... i will buy as soon as it comes out... duel boot means Android and WP7 is it???

anca 2 sene sonra çıkar böyle birşey. keşke gerçek olsa !

Wow, that looks really cool. I wonder if Microsoft would ever be generous enough to support dual-boot Mobile/Phone, if given enough support from consumers.

Finally my cellphone fantacy just became a DREAM. If I ever get one of these devices in my hand my dream has just became a reality.
OMG....I just fell in love!!!

Why 4.8 inches? 5 inches should be better

This is the phone of my dreams!

That phone looks amazing... x_x It's a pity nothing this good looking ever manages to make it out to the market.

Hi, I'm back !!!... First, thanks for the administrators to have reactivated my banned account (specialy for "Svetius" who had draw attention to my ban) ... In fact they said to me that my first concept posted looked like a profesionnal advertise, so for me it means that my "work" is not so bad !!!... and thanks to "Zepiii" for the help he gave me to post this one ...
If the administrators are OK, i think that i will start a new thread in "general" section to present all of my current concepts and have your feedback about them to improve the next ones (let me know if it suits to the site guidelines) ...
