The answer for this question have the same as for this other one "How do i know wath car is the best for me?"
Really you must read (lot of read) and then, if you are sure wath you are doing and wath you are looking for, take a test on every ROM....
Of course, Wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes must be your starting point.

jcespi2005 is right - you need to do a lot of reading. This will give you a feel for how stable a rom is and how muck tinkering you need to do to get what you want.
I'd recommend Black 2.0 - it's great and stable. Also the LSVW roms are great, but there were some reports on a White Screen problem for some people. I haven't tried Dutty's rom yet, and I'm eagerly waiting for Kyphurs WMXL0.3 which I also think will be very good.
I'd also recommend flashing Olipros HardSPL 1.40 before you begin because it will help you if you have any problems later.
I will reiterate what ach2 has said.
Read... a lot. Wiki, forums, etc.
Also, I would recommend Black, although others have their favorites.
WTF is with that title. did u read the rles on posting? did u search at all? did u read anything that has been posted? have u followed any thread at all?
this has been asked, answered, discussed, compered, contrasted and debated.
pick a phone, pick a rom. dont like the rom change it.
make up ur own... mind if u have one.
most importantly RTFW do the research. do ur home work. put some effort in.
change the heading on the forum.
Simon,
Wind your neck in mate - your post just makes you sound like you're some jumped up moron with an attitude problem.
There are much nicer ways to tell people that they've asked a stupid question and this is something that has been discussed on this particular forum...at length. Your post adds nothing to the thread apart from unnecessary vitriol and repeats what several other people posted before you - except that they were much nicer about it (and used things like capital letters and punctuation
Either drop the attitude and try and be a little more helpful or ignore posts like this and STFU.
Thanks.

Cheers! Reason!
Anyway. It is a matter of trying them out and seeing what you like. Personally I started with WMXL 0.20 and am still on it. So I haven't found out what the other are like. I'll try Black 2.0, or 2.5 if its out by then , when WMXL 0.30 comes out. And if some required functionality isnt there, i'll go on to WMXL 0.30.
Basically. Read until your eyes just about fall out on HOW to upgrade. Then just pick whatever rom seems like a good idea at the time. The more important bit is making sure you do it right, then you can flash to a different one later (plenty of good info in the forums and on the wiki).

With too much to say about anything and everything
the famous mr poleman posted this in 2003 and has represented the guiding light and rule on posting rules since that date.
Perhaps maybe somebody could make reference to it WHEN CREATING POSTING TITLES at least.
i express my deepest and most sincerest apologies to all those that i may have offended... i am simply just a little frustrated seeing these posts with nothing but useless headings like pls help or error and like.
so... if the be all and end all of postings could be followed since 2003 and applied to all since that date maybe i would be more helpful and less frusrated.... so for those that didnt know or didnt read perhaps a revisit

lordsmiff i bow to your righteousness and will do as u ask when people start following the guidelines and rules that have applied since long b4 u or i ever got here but seemed to be disregarded.
btw i was nice just wait ill i am really upset. at the moment i have been on this forum for 2hrs after working 14hrs and i see topic headings like this. pls forgive me my grumpiness and intolerance. i am usually more helpful and just lost my patience.
We're all grumpy sometimes dude, me included - and I got told the same thing not too long ago ;-)
So not exactly righteous, more of spread-the-love thang ;-)
Join the light side - take the path of righteousness - spread the love!

Oh, and to be a little more on topic, I've tried them all with no particular favourite, though I do like the LVSW one with the green skinned comm manager
Ok i said i would make a new one so here goes. This is a place where you can tell what you like about a rom and what you think could be adressed. Please keep it on topic and Maybe the new people can look here first and pick which rom they will flash but before you do please read the Wiki and all the other posts that are stickys and there is a great upgrade guide made by MrVanx which can be found here! So go read... Anyone that has something negative to say well I could careless cuz I'm not here to make friends just pimp my Hermes! this place is full of great cooks and true WM guru's read and learn not post and ask is your best bet in the start

Please Note new comers that we do not have the time to give nice happy responses to questions that have been asked 1000000 of times so its best to search about your issue or question before starting a new thread I have warned you and will now say that with starting a new thread you leave yourself open to being flamed and abused in all kinds of ways if your question has been talked about before....
this is a good idea. I will be creating an excel spreadsheet to document this if we get some good responses. chefs contact me for log.
diff
Whats good for one user is not good for another thats why the poll does not make sense. An updated chart of tweaks, programs installed and kernel and perhaps what the rom is geared towards would be more useful.
lets all grow up a little.. if you dont like a thread that someone made then dont post..

I voted LVSW. It is a Vanilla flavor of a STABLE ROM. I have my own CABs for anything else I use. Did I mention it was STABLE!!!!!

Well it's not the first time you delete threads that hit the heart of a topic, remember when i started a thread on WM6 for the Herms long before WM6 was even a thought of running on the Herms and you deleted posts in my thread and changed my topic? It's all kiss ass even between some of the mods here if you ask me In the end this poll still SUCKS!!!
I picked LSVW after using all of Blacks ROM's that produced unstable results with MMS and repeated resets.
As I have only flashed and run two of the WM6 ROMs that have been posted, I don't really know how valid my vote is, but I chose Custel's work. I decided to try his 2.5 Cingular version mainly because of the way Custel handles himself in the forum, and also because of the good reviews he was getting in his threads.
This ROM has been very stabile on my device, even with the plethora of apps I choose to install. It is faster than any of the ROMs I've used, including a few shipped versions of WM5, and the storage and program space it gives me is wonderful.
My gratitude goes out to Custel, all the other chefs, and also to the brilliant people who've created the various tools required to pull off this ... um ... competition. And also to XDA-DEV for it's hosting of this fabulous site.

Black???
Departure Jasjammina from xda- dev should not be reason rendering his ROM from inquiry popularity. Inquiry without Black ROM them as car without wheels

it wasnt about deleting because they may or may not have hit the heart of the topic, thats all up to personal opinion.. when i saw the topic and replies i was looking at it in a different direction; "can this thread be helpful to others?" so i answered myself yes and continued playing waste management. its not about kiss ass either, its about keeping things calm around here, everyone complains about n00b posts, etc.. but no one wants to help make it a better place.. I would have done the same thing if you had posted this or some n00b with 1 post under their belt and things got out of control.. its simple.. IF YOU DONT LIKE A THREAD THEN DONT RESPOND TO IT... if no one responds then it will fall to the bottom of the list, its that simple

Good to see LVSW on the list. His ROMs have always been very stable.
@shogunmark..... And i agree with you 100% on that response but, Can you see that in the end this is still a fight between JJ's Black and the rest? Custel? Only that austynsnyc is the puppet here Maybe i am wrong but this is why i don't like this poll and if i am then you all have my apologies and ill go back to my corner.

If you cant beat them, join them, so i did.... I voted LVSW #1 overall best, then all the Variants also deserve credit for the final iron works...
Also may i add, That even after the second time around on this poll the first time he was not included, this time YOU GOT HIS NAME WRONG IN THE POLL lol
I'd like to make my vote, but there must be an option to choose more than one version... i think...
And like to see Black in the list...don't understund why isn't in the pool...
Regards.
for those of you that did not follow the first one. Black has been taken out because JJ is not releasing his ROM on this forum and this poll is open to ROM's released in this forum. Yes there have been many polls before and I'm sure there will be many more unless we have one stickied!! Hint Hint... this is a good place to talk about what you like and what you would like improved in the ROM. thanks for the strict moderation. Sorry for spelling LWSV name wrong oops... at least i think i have all the major players this time until the next batch comes along.
Personally i like my ROM's because they have the extra stuff that i never use taken out and the major stuff still left in which give me very large storage to add what ever i like and not worry about it also i always run a 4MB pagepool which i believe is faster and more stable than a 6MB

What about the posibility to choose more than one..... can you do this in the poll?
no the whole point of this really is so new members can come here and look at what other people say about the roms and and others views and maybe help them in finding out which one is right for them with out asking the time ending question ""Which Rom is The Best"
we all know all the ROMS released here are fuken great but some people like different things thats all thats why i ask everyone to write there like and disslikes about the rom the think is the best for THEM... all these roms benchmark the same pretty much so deep inside there are only a few key changes such as kernel XIP and so on but most members dont know about that stuff they just want to know if it works and what cool apps it comes with

that may very well be... but someone out there is going to read this thread and find some of the informational useful and will make their decision based on it.

I think it's better to let a mod remove the cluttered posts and just let Colonel continue with this poll.....I actually see the reason why he did....just as some sort of quick benchmark/comparison and let's be honest.....it's sometimes hard to search and find an appropriate poll regarding ROMS...
Off course everybody can choose their own ROM which suits the most..
Hope you all understand me....

I will try and maintain it.
However polls can not be updated.
So we can close after a week and I will re-open with new list.
Basically my criteria was ROMS from the first two pages of the ROM forum, on the basis that three pages old are not that much used. Perhaps there is a better criteria that someone could suggest,, but it seems roughly correct if you look at the "Other" choice.

Allright! you can also let the people post their opinion on the poll and also let them tell why they have choosen for that ROM maybe that would work?? don't know if that could be realised??
Just thinkin....
Someone must be delete this one.
This is misleading - the poll asks "which ROM are you using" and then the first posts asks "your best ROM?" So the ROM I currently use may not be my Best overall. The Best ROM I ever used was by mun_rus
So which do I respond to?
Anyway - I like dutty ROMS as the Messainging Manila TAB has the extra options then I like SwiftBL as its smooth. AZTOR Rom seemed nice and quick but did not pick the GPS at all.
The base ROM is Duttys for today but tomorrow I will change and next week I will change again and so on and on and on (ARISTON)
As I customise the Base ROM so much - I will call it my own.
Why is this a multiple choice poll? Good for me as I have more than one diamond so I can select the ROM I am using for TODAY
Dutty's definately. I used to run 2,5 which worked great, then I tried the 2nd beta of Syrius, which suddenly crashed on me the 2nd day. So I'm now happily running Dutty's 2.8. Which has been great for about a week now.
Excellent poll
Thinking about how much snappier the Kaiser is in operation than the Diamond despite a slower CPU I was wondering if the Diamond could be made to run QVGA to lessen the load on the hardware.
Personally I think VGA is overkill on such a tiny screen and would be happy with QVGA.
Does such a thing exist? could I use a ROM from a different device?
bump........
No.
The phone is designed to run in VGA mode. It is a VGA phone regardless of what ROM you use.
Thanks for the reply. Looks like the bin for the Diamond then after only 3 weeks of ownership...
exactly, how much snappier is it?
not sure about this one...
what are you talking about I had Kaiser with all newest ROMs in those days and wasnt snapier so pls be so kind and dont write stupid threads...rather buy HTC touch 3G or Jade...kaiser is sh*t...

Play nice guys
and NO!! Diamond is designed to carry VGA screen and VGA ROMs, softwares, etc. etc. QVGA ROMs cannot be run on Diamond. Never designed and never shall be cooked. Frankly doesnt make sense to buy costly VGA device and run QVGA ROMs on it instead buying cheaper QVGA devices in 1st place
Thread closed & shall be trashed soon!!
Hi!

Speakerphone and mic both work if you reallyntook the time to look you would see I posted the speakerphone work around and someone else the mic fix.
I can see why the devs for Android TP2 get annoyed with a blanket question like this. Yes there is a version for the TP2 that "fully" works. Buy a new Android phone with your money.
HTC never licensed the TP2 to run Android and much of the remaining functionality is cloaked behind proprietary code in particular drivers/modules for components specific to the TP2. So it's not a simple matter of just installing any old Android version and waving a magic wand. They've reversed engineered much of it and it's one of the hardest things to do in development.
They also do it for free. So either donate (which to your requests should be a rather large sum) or otherwise don't ask a question like this and simply search yourself.

Folks, I don't care how many times the forum guidelines are posted, or how many times you put "RTFP" out there for all to see, there are still going to be people that are too lazy to look, will ask the stupid question, then wonder why everyone wants to nail their nads to the floor for asking.
To put it plain and simple ..... Ya just can't fix stupid and their nads should be nailed to the floor so that they can not travel around freely and reproduce.
Personally, I think that folks that behave this way should be banned outright after posting a stupid question such as this. I know that we are all n00bs at one time or another and some of us have our moments still from time to time, but questions such as the one posed by the OP are outright stupid. It is very clear that this person never read the forum guidelines or checked the stickies before asking.
