hi
is there a vanilla wm 6.1 rom ?
searched but couldnt find one
In my oppinion, WM_6.1_v.3.0-L is the most vanilla out there, and it's extremely stable. That's why I use it. You can add what you need after Flashing this one. NO HOME, NO TOUCHFLO, etc... I love it!
I've added my own calculator, media player, etc....

thanks for the answer !!! and not flaming
No problem. There's a big difference between "what's your favorite?" and "is there a vanilla rom?". I'd love to see an even MORE vanilla rom cooked, but have not seen one yet. I would like to cook my own, but have not been able to understand it yet. Still trying. If i accomplish it, I will definately post it.
I'd like to see a stripped down version of JUST the WM 6.1 OS just like Microsoft made it. NO extras. That way when updated add-ons come up, you can uninstall and reinstall updates. ie: HTC Home, Cube, Network Wizard, X-Button, etc... And you don't have to disable the things you don't want but still have them consuming space on your device. ie: HTC Home, Cube, etc...
Like I say, WM_6.1_v.3.0-L is about as close as I've been able to find so far, and it's stable.
Good luck!

Try SL Mary 6.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369917
Hi there,
I'm new to the Diamond and I'm looking for a bare/naked ROM. I searched the forum but the staggering list of ROMs is overwhelming me.
I'm using SPB Shell I don't need TF3D. I also don't need all the other programs because I'll only install the ones I need as cabs afterwards. So I'm basically looking for a bare ROM that only contains the necessary drivers (if such things are needed) for all the features of the Diamond (and useful Tweaks) but without all the 3rd party software (HTC TF3D, HTC album, Adobe etc etc.
I made the observation (with my S110 and X500) that those bare ROMs are the most responsive and fastest and leave as much room as possible for programs you really want and need.
I hope you understand what I'm looking for and can give me a hint as which ROM to look.

Thank you very much. This is what I was searching for. Does this also support the g-sensor and ati?
yeah, i think this ROM can support all , now i'm checking this ROM, i hope, hope and hope ...
I don't want to sound disrespectul and admire the hard work the rom cookers put into their creations. But most of those roms are not for me.
I for one don't use most of the oem and bundles software - heck, I don't even ust TF3D - but rely on my own software I bought over the years. Those are small, efficient tools instead of the overly bloated programs that are todays standard. I'm a big fan of SPB Mobile Shell (the latest 2 version, not the 3 version), it's very fast and does consume only minimal RAM compared to TF3D.
I don't even use MMS, I use email. That's why most of the roms are overly bloated for my need and I appreciate a naked rom that is based on an up to date official rom. I have to depend on my device and I'm often unsure what hidden bugs may lie deep inside those heavily modified roms.
Guys i'm looking for clean wwe rom with wm 6.5 and manilla 3d 2.5 .I'm looking for some few day already and I couldn't find one. Please recomend me one . tnks in advance
me too, .
I am also looking for a ROM that isn't loaded with unwanted applications. I have tried four so far and each one has an app that I can't update or remove. I just want to be able to pick what I want and just what I want. So far my searches have come up with nothing, are there any roms either out there or in development that are just the OS and nothing else?
I agree. What I seek is a straight and clean stable build of 6.5 with no frills or HTC customizations.
so , i see i'm the only one who wants to use clean roms. Is there somebody who can cook already cooked rom but without odd programs. Just the programs which are included in original HTC roms and may some with help the devices to work proper with new manila 2.5.
6.5
Hello,
As far as I can see, there are some modern, clean 6.5 builds without HTC customizations, see the forums.
What we are looking for here is a 6.5 build with Manila 2.5 and its associated HTC apps just if It was a recently bought new terminal.
If the HTC pictures seen those days are real, I think they have RTMed with 6.5 builds and not with 6.5.1 buils (see start at the top and thick bottom bar). I think this is more convenient for Manila...
Regards
I think if its possible to make something like categories witch separates different rom types. For example clean, with one kind of nesasary programs and another kind witch are custom made like where are added different themes and additional programs. May be somebody can add a new post where they are discribed and add links to the post where the roms are added. So , if somebody wonders witch one to choose will have them in one place and will not be forced to search several pages.
Many clean ROMs have "CLEAN" in their thread name. So... does it ring any bells? If you search the "Diamond ROM developement" for, um, lets say the phrase "CLEAN 6.5", and check the "search only in title" (or sth like that), it should be enough to find clean 6.5 roms.
As for the manila 2.5, as i know, it's still in developement (which you should know, if you bothered to dedicate 30 minutes to reading the only two threads including "manila 2.5" in their title), and there are ONLY TWO (2) roms with manila 2.5. One is 6.1(Sun.Y) and the other is 6.5(Sun.X).
Oh...and yes..there is a search function on this forum Did i point that out already?
EDIT: Oh...and there is Eugenia rom, which actualy uses work from the Sun project...as far as i know. Correct me if needed..
I'm sure not only me and the others used search and read the forum for nice rom . But the most roms even clean ones have program witch are not useful for some of us and use additional memory. Otherwise I totally agree with you - there is still i think a lot of time until we see proper manilla 2.5 working on our diamonds. cheers
Well. My advice on searching roms is: Look only in the first two or three pages, beacuse those roms are actively updated. When it says [FINAL] in the rom topic title, that's even better. If you are looking for a stable and fast rom, try to avoid BETA releases (altough, some work pretty well). As for ram consumption... 6.1 roms are (from my experience) more ram friendly than 6.5 rom. BUT a 6.5 rom with titanium enabled is more ram efficient than a 6.1 rom with Manila 2.1. Also, big ram consumera are non-WM default dialers. They can take up to 10-12mb of RAM. You can disable them, and enable the default WM dialer (search the threads...it can be done via CAB or AdvancedConfig), but that brings problems while using manila 2.1 (and 2.5 i think). Don't worry too much about "unuseful" preinstalled software on [CLEAN] roms, beacuse well they can take up some space on your phone memory, but usualy don't eat RAM, unless you run them.
I actually don't use CLEAN roms, beacuse i find some medium loaded roms more usefull (see my signature). With my rom i have no problem running IGO8 or listening to mp3(s2p) while surfing the net with opera. And that is while i get around 74% used RAM after a day of usage (62-65% on clean boot). RAM is meant to be used, and don't get frightened if it sometimes jumps up to 80% (a friend of mine has 11mb of free ram on an Ipgone 3g, and that thing still flies...beacuse it actuall uses ram (efficiently!!)).
My 2 cents. I hope it helps you find the right rom.
EDIT: oh, and CleanRam is a pretty useful app... (on level 2 or 3)
thanks a lot for this full answer mate I hope it will be useful not only for me, but for everyone who needs help about looking for new rom.
I've settled for BsB for the moment (the 6.5 variant).
Greetings, diamond users. Yesterday, I joined your company, and bought HTC 3700.
So, have some questions now:
1. Which radio firmware is most stable on Diamond? Are those x-peria ones better than natives?
2. Is there a reason to install WM6.5 instead of 6.1? I succesfully SPL-ed my diamond, and filled it with 6.1 by Korand, it seems to be ok. But, maybe 6.5 is much more reliable, what do you think?
Sorry for creepy english.

1) It's a question of personal choice... Try some out, see which one feels best.
2) Some people like the UI changes in 6.5, some people don't. Try it out, see what you like.
In general, we don't know what you like, so read threads see what people say about a ROM/Radio, download a few you like the look of, flash them, and see what you like!
I like scrolling better in 6.5 it is much more smoother.
it feels like iPhones scrolling (sorry for cursing )
hehe iPhone scrolling, but yeah it's true, i think that windows 6.5.1 is much more finger friendly than windows 6.1
but still it's a personal choice
i really like the interface of 6.5 (chome / titanium)
but i change rom every week so.. xD
The best ROM I have found so far was DIB Diamond 1.33. The reason for this is that it had EVERYTHING a complete N00b like me needed. e.g. the apps to change registry, customise other menus, the colour changes, and other little bits n pieces to keep me playing on the journey home or when I was bored. But now, i'm looking for speed and plain ROMs so that I can customise to what I would like.
Good luck playing and having fun customising
Hello EveryOne!
I'm here since some weeks now, to look, try and improve everything. This, in order to build a final version of my HTC Blackstone in perfect accordance with my demands.
I mean:
Look, Speed, DailyUse, No Freeze, No Bugs, whatever the program I use. And I won, got the perfect one!
Please see here under:
A) Look:
Screens are in attachment...
Well it is sober, but that's what I like. My Htc BlackStone looks what it is: a BlackStone.
Sometimes, when I see what people ask here to developpers, I laugh and think: "Oh Gosh! Why don't they ask for a washmachine in their cell-phone too?".
B) Rom WM 6.1 Manila 2.1, and Radio:
The ROM is - HTC_Touch_HD_MR_2009_RUU_BlackStone_HTC_FRA_1.56.406.1
and the Radio - Radio_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24
Why these ROM and Radio? Because they are the official of HTC, much easier for me to customize than some beautiful cooked I found and tried here, as Miri's, Dutty's, KWbr's or Panoshka's.
I tried other official versions, and I honestly don't see a meaningful difference, except that some added programs couldn't work properly.
I think the most simple it is, the best it works... So, even if mixing WN 6.1 with Sense 2.5, or WM 6.5 with Manila 2.1 works, the result seem to me too complicate. As well, making deep changes increase risk of instability, bugs, especially by adding other third party programs.
In fact, if you are developper yourself, you know what you do, then you can fix problems. But if you're not, then it's better to stay on one's level, without pretention or arrogance, and just try to customize with simple things...
C) Added programs, (IN THIS ORDER, laughing!):
01-BS_Rilphone_1_13_25_24.cab
02-NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
03-Tnyynt SD TuneUP.cab
04-IPC_Black_Calculator.cab
05-Black Dialer EN.cab
06-Whiteglow Transparant Clock.cab
07-Glass icons.cab
08-Dutty's NoTopCurtain.cab
09-Diamond_TF3D_Config_Setup.cab
10-HD Tweak 0.5.4_French.cab
11-Celogeek_tweak_20080808.cab
12-mUn background4allpages.cab
13-HushSMS-v0.6beta.CAB
14-ACR Version 1.2.4.CAB
15-Express News 1.0.39.cab
16-DeluxeMoon.cab
17-BattLog0.2.3.130.zip
18-CorePlayer v1.3.6 Build-7427 for PPC.cab
All those programs can be found on the site, except for item 15-Express News and 18-Core player, I found on the websites using "search".
D) My comments:
Well, today, a cellphone can be use for quite everything: as GPS, Radar detector, remote control or...phonecalls!
Mine is fast, stable, safe, and does what I want efficiently:
Phonecalls, contacts, texts, mails, news, websurf, meteo, pictures, movies, music, FM Radio, and the Moon for fun...
I don't need more, and with this config, it is a rocket as fast as the new phones i tried: Iphone4, HTC Desire or Samsung Galaxy S.
I was about to buy a new one of these, to be "up to date", but I don't see the utility anymore!
A good config on a Blackstone is a MUST.
Best regards,
BobbyTrash
Ps: To perfect this look, I was looking for a ".cab" to make Topbar and Bottombar transparent, I didn't found it here. Some cooked ROM do it, perhaps a developper can provide such a cab...
In an other way, a short program allowing to rename and link easely unused tabs, would be useful too, whatever the ROM or kitchen...
mate you haven't cooked a Rom, your just tweeking
Yes, absolutely..
I just did it for people who search for simple customisation, more than for a cook...
I thought it was clear in my post, though! Thanks for your answer.
Bobby
probably should be moved to the themes and apps section
You're right...
How to do that?
Regards,
Bobby
Only mods can move threads
MOD EDIT - Thread moved to Themes & Apps section..........and renamed
