I recently bought a US3G DIAM110 and would like to flash a new rom to it as it seem a bit unstable currently. I have been reading the forums for hours and have the basic jist of how to do that, however what I cannot find is what would be the best rom for my device. The forum search isn't too much help either. Can some one point me in the right direction of a good rom (and/or radio) for me to put on my device?
Thanks,
Cory

Although Skaks Rom is great....threads discussing which is the best ROM is not permitted on this forum. Please try the newest Roms yourself and judge them according to your standards.

this is correct......the thread will now be closed......
please note most roms here are for gsm phones.....and won't work on a us diamond.....if you flash the wrong one you can brick your phone.
Just for clarity, the OP has a US 3G [GSM] Diamond, so he can use the ROMs found here. Just be sure to not flash anything labeled CDMA... it will not end well.

Hello everyone.
I'm new to this and been reading around, playing with different stuff.
Just finish unlocking my Vogue and now looking for 2 or 3 roms to try.
1. Latest Stable Custom ROM (WM 6.1)
2. Latest Stable OEM Rom (for emergency)
I don't know whats the difference really, but I think I want to try the WM 6.1 Roms, but I been noticing there are so many of them in different forums. I don't know what to do, and it seems most of them are experimental and stuff.
I notice, doing all this process will cause people to go all over everything they done to their phone before (Tweaks im talking about)
Thanks in advance

I just bought a touch diamond (US 3G version), and would like to try some customized ROM released here.
One simple question, what is the latest or best HardSPL we can find now? I know there are a lot of threads about hardspl in the forum. But just too many. After 2 hours of reading, I still do not know which one is the newest one and the best one? Could you guys point me the direction and give me the link of that particular thread? Thanks a million.
Also, about the ROM, I am looking for a ROM with original HTC looking (basically black today screen and black touchflo 3D, though blue is probably fine with me), but faster, with all the tweaks applied. And if possible with latest OS builds. Any suggestions?
I did search and reading a lot. Just confused with so many different HardSPLs and ROMs. Hope someone more familiar with this forum can help me out. Thanks!
SPL's & ROM's...
Unfortunately, like so many things, ROM's are based on personal opinion, so there is no 'best' or 'worst', just one's you like and one's you don't.
Try here for your SPL - both GSM and CDMA versions covered. You must do this first or you'll end up bricking your device.
Next, just try the ROM's until you find one you like. The one I'm currently using is pretty much standard (as you would like), but with all the latest versions of applications / software and the latest drivers, etc. I think you'll like it! Try here.
Don't ask me how to tell if you have CDMA or GSM device because I've no idea how to tell the difference !
Have fun
AFAIK there is a sticky thread about HardSPL !
AFAIK in forum rulez the question whats the last / best rom are disallowed !
just read some threads please !
In the HardSPL thread the first and second post Oli explains everything Who should use what HARDSPL ... so dont think thats complicated.
Please UTFSE and flash some so you will know what u like best !!

Thanks a lot. I just flashed the HardSPL and the ROM you linked in your post. They works very well. Thanks!
One more question, I am working in a high building, and my desk is in the 3rd floor. I am getting very poor cell phone (GSM, T-mobile USA) here. I am wondering if anyone can suggest a better radio ROM for T-mobile USA? I really want a better signal reception. Thanks in advance!
Hi All,
Sorry, there is so much information on this site, i'm lost.
Can someone please provide links to what I need to download and install to upgrade a stock standard telstra diamond touch so I can get it working correctly with Optus?
Thanks.
OK, i've upgraded the bootloader to the hard spl, and the radio version is already at 1.00.25.06 (do you think its worth downgrading to 1.00.25.05??)
Now, what's the most popular rom for the diamond? What do people suggest?
Thanks.

I'm using Dutty's ROM at the mement. But I will be using this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438313
when its bugs get sorted out since its based on the Diamond 2 thingo or whatever so it'll have some new features.
I'm the same as you. Bought the Telstra Diamond and chucked in my Optus SIM. Pretty much just have to any ROM and you won't have to see the Telstra branding everywhere.
That ROM you linked looks rather spic. What issues are stopping you from flashing that ROM now?

To be honest I didn't find out about that ROM until just before I found your post, Mainly time has been stopping me and the hassle, and I read that there are some little bugs that it has when skimming through the thread but there was nothing that was bad enough to make me not upgrade. Just don't want to Flash to the ROM and then have a new revision come out two days later which is better.
Think I'll upgrade to this ROM right not though
Thanks for your post.
I decided to use the rom that you linked to, and found found it a 1000% improvement from the Tesltra one.
Only issue I have found so far is trouble connecting to wifi networks. Will have a bit more of a play soon.
Apart from that, it's good.
I 'downgraded' to the 1.00.25.05 radio and seemed to get alot better battery life from it.
Regarding ROMs, I agree almost anything is better than the stock Telstra one
Please be kind I'm a newbie and i wanna try the newest build compatible with the HTC Touch2 (aka HTC Mega) can someone hook me up?
Thank you.
look section for device. currently it's not possible to flash ROMs on T2 due to lack of hardspl.
Okay, again bare in mind I'm a newbie, how can I get the Hardspl from my device to help?

quite a newbie as well. but you just have to read the forum. in the ROM development of your device you see that the HardSpl is not yet done. This one is needed if you want to flash cooked ROMs.
There's also plenty of threads about flashing ROMs and everything is explained properly.
Thank you.
And thanks for not calling me an idiot
I got a brand new at&t tilt 2 , it is very slow , what rom u recommend me to make it faster , all the browsers like opera , google etc are really slow.
thanks
Energy Rom is what I use. Fast, nice looking, highly customizable. Skyfire works better for me than IE or Opera.

hardspl is needed in order to flash custom roms all the info you need is in the the link i posted in my 1st post go ahead & read through it to learn about hardspl
jsaid, didn't you just have a thread closed a little while ago for asking this same question? Use search, and do some research, please, please, please, before openingg new threads. Also, jumping into flashing can be dangerous, read the stickie at the top of this forum, especially [Resources] Flashing your First GSM Rhodium Rom (For Noobs).

Exacto "only noticed after move"..
OP flash ROMs just like everyone else and find the best ROM as it's personal preference.
On that note thread closed.
