Is there a good cooked WM6.1 rom? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

After playing with most of the 6.5 roms I have to say that I hate WinMo 6.5 with a passion. I think the cookers did a fantastic job, but you can't hide a turd with a shiny skin.
Are there any decent cooked roms based off 6.1 for the T-Mo (US) TP2? The stock rom is a piece of crap so I'm in desperate need of something smoother.
And yes -I searched, but I'm primarily looking for real hands-on experience with these roms.

Has ROM cooking the Hermes peaked?

It seems that all that can be done with WM6 cooked ROMs and the Hermes has already been done. Now all that's left is just tinkering and smoothing out the cranks.
I'm not sure whether any newly released ROMs offer any significant benefits as they're all starting to offer pretty much the same functionality and integration as was shown in the benchmark scores.
I was thinking of making my own ROM but not sure there is any real point in doing so any more.
What are your thoughts guys?
I think most current roms are stable, new things are now added, I still hope to see a nice stable TouchFlo rom.

windows mobile 6.0 vs 6.1 - based upon vanilla roms

@all,
havin been away from this forum for quite some time i am back in business.... and hunting to find speed in my roms (not neglecting finesse and stability though)!
so i dug up all off (marks) roms from the depth of my computer again....and am one hell of surprised about the speed of vanilla 2.01 (wm6.0) .
so, what are the real benefits of wm6.1 ???

ive not noticed any significant difference, hell, if you did a door step challenge on me between the two id be guessing

The only thing is the threaded SMS which is really nice and PIE has a zoom feature. I put it on my wifes MDA and she loves the SMS. But I think it's like Windows Vista. It ain't really worth it to upgrade to it if you've got a stable system on XP. I'm sticking with 6.0 until my next device.
I'm still using Meschle's O2 Premium Plus. Fast, stable and just very capable. Man, he was a great chef!
Meschle's was by far the best. Every other rom is FULL of other stuff that the developer likes but really slows the device down. Running task manager you can see the processor usage for these other apps and it makes the device sluggish.
Ive listend to the arguments and feel teh cube on the 3300 is wayyyyy toooooo sllllooooowwww to use. Its not even any good to show off to your mates its that bad.
Meschle's 6.1 Vanilla 4.02 is my fav. Nice, fast and ultra stable. No reset in 3 months

Yea, that's why I always opt'd for the versions without the cube. Useless anyway. What a joke. And Meschle had a great approach to building his ROMS. Stabilty, speed, & functionality seemed to be the order of priority and I really appreciated that.
As a matter of fact, I just did a hard reset and set my phone up all over again without all the custom phone dialers, themes, weather icons, and today screen changes. The regular ROM dosen't look all that great but it's so fast now. It's amazing how much all those extra cosmetic programs can zap your speed and how much the junk is left from programs that didn't really get uninstalled when you uninstalled them. My phone's always been pretty stable but now it's faster and stable.

The end of the Trinity ROM developement

With the introduction of the 6.5 ROM, we all know that this rom is to heavy for the trinity user. Realisiticly seen we are left with the 6.1. So. The question that are arises, is there anyone here that is able to cook a good, quality, stable rom that is clean, has touchflow extracted from 6.5 and with uptodate software, kinda like the tytnn rom or the flinx one.
are you blind? there are nice working and fast WM6.5 roms out there, i'm using one myself so... pointless topic.
thanx

....really don't be so "blind"eheheheh!!!!my trinity is going very well wuth rubenalf ita tranlsation,jml today 5.5,tomtom7,videocalling,wifi going well,navisat working,google maps,Icontact,s2p music player,4 gyga microsd,diamond clock with animation -
- the only problem is my battery,after 2 years of really hard working now I'm really thinking about changing it!!
those 6.5 roms are slow on the trinity devices. Let's be honest. If you break the 6.5 down and strip it off, then it runs with poor memory. Conclusion? Trinity will not be able to take the 6.5 fully.

Super Ultra Lite version of 28014. Fast, staible, lots of free space.

I am agry with jedai ... pointless topic!
there is not much free memory, we can trim down any rom and make it as small as we want. But can we make 6.5 so that it has a lot of free memory? No.
little reflection
trinity is a very very good device!!!
but last period roms have recentely become beautiful and heavy for our little jewel.
Unfortunately, the development of this work no longer leads to great satisfaction as before
I thank all the heroes - cooks who have allowed us to see with interest our device for several years without tiring us.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!

I don't know about you, but seems to me this is plenty of free RAM. It's even more than some of the older builds. There will be more updates to come still, just working out bugs on the latest builds.

yes I agree withbguys about 6.5 is too heavy to be honest and u can't run programs need a lot of memory or need a cpu preformane ...
I'm wondring about if this radio rom is spending battery 1.38.00.11 cuz I'm running out of battery so fast when I'm using internet and if there's a better one how I can change it cuz I tried too many times to change and didn't work
i just tried the 23504 Blue. It's slow. . . I keep on returning to finx latest rom with adjusted page pool settings. This rom is pretty fast, stable and has sufficient ram. If anybody is convinced trinity can handle 6.5 like that. Show me.
i also tried 6.5 and went back to 6.1.
Sure you can use 6.5 but it's slower, no matter how lite the version is. Start installing some stuff (specially recent versions which are also heavier) and everything feels even slower.
Nowadays no one produces software thinking about how it will run on our old trinity.
I'm even considering going back to 6.0 to see if i can get some more speed, don't think i'll be missing much from 6.1 anyway.
I'm currently on tomme45i's 6.1 which is a very good rom but it is also a bit slower (and buggier, imho) than finx's.
well, i'm using a 6.1 rom from tommie45, for me, it's the better rom i have ever try!!!
i dont know how, but his roms are the most stable and complete for trinity. it's my opinion!
i gave up on tommie45's rom and got back to finix 3.7.2.
It's not as pretty (b&w icons, uglier in general) and some functionality is less practical but... it feels much faster!
I recommend doing the same if the rom you are using feels slow.
Im using SuperSport WM6.5 build 23506 LITE and there hasn't been so much problems with it, but I can agree, 6.1 is faster, but the pro's in this rom is to many for me to use 6.1...
If I find the thread I'll put the link to it here.
Today at the phone store, they said they couldn't order the htc 3600 ( trinity ) anymore.......

wifi work? video call? bluetooth?
yeah it's a shame right? 3 years ago this phone was at the pinnacle of mobile communications, and today omg there's so many other things out there
however trinity and windows mobile is not dead! i've retired to a blackberry for my telephone call needs, but the trinity is now a dedicated GPS/dictionary. anyone else using it purely as a non-phone pda now?? and which rom??

T-Mobile Pre configuired rom?

I saw that there is an ATT rom i was wondering if there is a pre configured rom version that is fully functional with the US T-mobile. System? Ie a kinda like an improvement on the current 6.5 rom tmo put out.
The stock tmo rom isnt bad tho wish it had some of the speed of the cooked roms tho and maybe the 2.5 sense.
There is the Timor ROM. It hasn't been updated in a while and I thought he took out too much, but if you search here you can find it.
Honestly, I was tempted to modify the stock 6.5 ROM and try and put 2.5 in it, but even with the tutorials, building a ROM isn't easy.
Maybe we could take up a collection for a chef to do a stock ROM upgrade?
HOnestly doesnt sound like a BAD idea. NRG profile says T-MO and i think he in the states? IDK
I like the stock its not that bad but I love the functionality of the cooked roms. A mix of both would be great. It be great if there was a cab to upgrad sense to a new version?
Ok, what would we like to see in this ROM?
Stock T-Mobile 6.5 release (with all t-mo apps?)
Sense 2.5
.NET CF 3.5
FM Radio
WiFi hotspot
Anything else? What would you remove or add?
Thats it really that in addition to stock would be a dream!
speed
2.5 is awesome, but fast 2.5 is Great
yeah i would like this also... I want a faster and better performance...
Try Timor or Josh's Black series...

Do we actually want the stock ROM or do we want a newer build?
I'll be honest, I've had problems with every custom ROM, either battery life (yes, I waited several days, the battery life isn't there) or having to reboot several times a day.
I'm back on stock for now because it just works better. I need something that's reliable on the T-Mobile network and I don't care about any other networks.
So, I'm voting for a direct change to the stock 6.5 ROM.
Is anyone else interested in a ROM like this? If we want it done, we can pledge some money and hire a chef.

[q] what is the best custom rom out there

Hi, im lookin for a good custom rom thats fast and have awsome features in it!
without debate:
ROM for eye candy - NRGZ28 roms
ROM for speed/memory - Jackos roms

I agree with your selection. JackOS roms are great regarding speed and flexibiliby. I prefer the EVO version, but the S3 is also great.
I also like NRGX28 roms, but regarding features I think Energy ROMs are the best. However, Energy ROMs are RAM hungry, so you get lots of features but not so much multitasking benefits.
Best Regards,

RHODIUM and TOPAZ user
and for both, Illuminati series CHT 2.0
it's awesome fast, stable, bug free, I barely restart my phone
WCX's ROMS are fast, fast, fast.....his Illuminati CHT is feature rich due to CHT, and uses very little device storage...VERY little...it manages RAM very well and the 21916 is a multi tasking beast...I love it....I love NRGZ ROM too...those are the two I recommend...if youve tried NRGZ's and want to try something else, try WCX's CHT...you'll see...it's very nice
WCX roms are the fastest that maintain stability IMO.
