how should be the perfect rom?
I would appreciate knowing the reason the reason of your vote
The stock O2 6.1 rom is the only one I can reliably use that has the features I need.
Unfortunately, a lot of the custom roms disable things which can't then be added back later. All other roms I have tried run out of ram too quickly and require regular restarts. The Clean basic rom available here is maybe an exception to this.
After trying abt 15 roms, found that what exactly I like and need is combination between speed not loaded rom and couple of payed applications. It`s my taste

my perfect rom would be 6.5.1 titanium that worked fast & didn't crash & cause hard resets on my phone, which all the 6.5.1s seem to do :/

What features are you speaking of?
1- A good ROM SHALL included TF3d. Diamond without TF3d is a ordinary boaring device, TF3d is the soul of Diamond. I never use ROMs without TF3d.
2- All ROMs including Windows Mobile 6.5 + TF3d are too RAM and battery consuming and seems Diamond's hardware not able to handle it.
3- TF3d 2.5 is really nice.
Conclusion:
The ROM I prefer shall be a fast and stable one based on WM6.1+ TF3d 2.5

Totally agree with your comment, however as i heard yotgagz mentioned that TF3d 2.5 is running slow on Diamond. hope he can make it run smoother.

Transcriber is one. You can apply whatever cabs you like but it never works properly as compared with the built-in one. It's always first off the "unnecessary removed" list in custom roms but since you can't put it back you're stuck.
Another is the default way that rotation works. With Opera on the stock rom when I rotate the device the screen rotates as well. On the custom roms it doesn't. Unless I search for and download some obscure application I've never heard of and run it 25 seconds after every restart. Except on Tuesdays.
rom 6.5.1
it's true, that the touchflo is a must have application for the diamond, but more recently i use siemenslover's clean 6.5.1. rom, without manila or titanium, with the spb mobile shell 3.5 installed, and for now it's by far the best combo: great battery performance, nice and easy spb interface with widgets (very handy to use). Even with lot of sms and internet usage i don't have to be afraid of remaining without battery.

oh, ok I know what you mean
concerning Opera - it depends on the build - I always prefer a non rotating build. however, most of them do rotate.
I voted WM 6.5 + TF3d 2.5
TF3D2.1 Home screen is boring for me i prefer manila 2.5 with a Lite version of WM6.5.X or a clean ROM also WM6.5.X
Not to much preinstalled applications,tools and games but only required applications for running the device.
That would be the perfect for me.
energy leo m2.5 lite rom
ok im a fan of the new hd2 and here in australia we have not got it yet.. soo ive customised my rom to defalut manila leo 2.5 and wm default 6.5 and now have a perfect smaller version of hd2 on my htc diamond which im very happy with soo my vote is 6.5 + 2.5

The perfect rom would be WiMo 6.1 without Manila!
In my opinion TF3D is unusable crap, its slow and useless.
WiMo 6.5 is slow too and it got nothing which is worth to switch.
I'm actually coming back to TF3d after a year away from primarily because of the cooking going on in here.
I have 2 ideal ROMs at moment (never could make my mind up!). Both of which are still not quite there for my needs (but very close thanks to these wizard chefs).
1) WM6.5 with Manila 2.1
2) WM6.1 with Manila 2.5
Reasons:
As it stands I can't see how there can be enough usable RAM left with 6.5.x and Manila 2.5 for everyday usage. Would love to be proved wrong but that's how I see it. I do like the advancements in finger friendly usage but with 2.5 you need to get into the underlying Microsoft less and less.
I do like 6.5.1 but for an appointments and task focussed job then the standard Titanium is not enough and I find I am layering lots of SPB stuff on top.
Now when SPB get their as**s into gear and bring Diary out with full 6.5.1 compatibility and face lift this could be a real option for me.
Ho votato per la soluzione WM6.1 + TF3D2.5 perchè, secondo me, è un ottimo compromesso tra una rom veloce e graficamente accattivante.
Secondo la mia modesta opinione, l'hardware del Diamond non può far funzionare con una velocità decente le nuove rom 6.5....
I voted for the resolution WM6.1 + TF3D2.5 because, in my opinion, is a good compromise between a fast and visually appealing rom.
IMHO Diamond's hardware can not handle rapidly the new 6.5 roms....

I'm new here myself, trying to learn to cook some roms, I've tried about any rom I could find and the fastest and most stable so far is meschle's 3.01 vanilla, yes it is wm6.0 and does need some extra programs installed, but I prefer installing thing rather than removing them afterwards (which can be tricky). I'm also fond of gullum's TF2D beta5, but he is also not going to make any new versions anymore.
I want to make own rom from a very clean wm 6.1 source and only do minimal customisation and let the end-user and myself decide what apps to install. I don't see the need to pack a rom full of apps that get outdated when newer versions of the apps are released with no way of properly uninstalling it.
If anyone has some new clean wm6.1 XIP/SYS sources please pm me.
My best ROM is YuE_v11.1_3.15.20755_ExtraClean_WWE, cuz it is very fast, stable, and Roomy. Ver 14 had a bunch of faults. I never liked other versions, cuz of being stuffed with too many softwares I never used.

Artemis Touch 4.02 Full with 4 sided cube,
the first one i ever ''flashed''to my htc p3300.
i must say it works very good but it takes 100% cpu usage on this phone unfortunally.
now im flashing''no nonsonse_6''on this moment to my phone for faster working(i hope)............
installed,it looks not fancy but it looks not bad.
simple use but i am really searching for a rom that is fast,and with nice graphics and programs(like live messenger)
edit;
[rom][wwe][01.02.09]achilles Manila 2d (ce Os 20764.1.4.3) version 3 YouTube[online]
is the one i installed now on my tmobile mda compact 3(p3300)nl edition
even as they say its impossible to get a wireless connection with an tmobile mda3 compact.....
with this rom i now have access to the wireless internet!
working great,just installed windows live messenger and it works like a charm!
im really happy that i now can access the wireless internet,very handy!
(must say this phone is unlocked after 1 year for free by tmobile)

YuE ROM, build 20755.1.4.0
I'm running Radio 3.39.90...
the phone is 10x faster and easyer to use than when it came from original box...
So, had my Hermes for several years now and tried many ROMs and UIs in that time.
Now we seem to have a two main choices for UI: Manila or Titanium.
I've found both of these UI's take up a lot of resources and they're buggy, especially the new fancy versions of Titanium and I'm having to soft-reset frequently which I find frustrating.
In order to get a cast iron, fast phone, I'm even considering flashing a modern ultralite ROM and putting HTC Home 2 on there.
Any other suggestions either as to:
1. A UI thats easy to install and doesn't take up masses of RAM
2. A ROM with a modern, none buggy version of Titanium/Manila which still have about 25M RAM?
i was using hermes for several months, bricked it and after several months i unbricked it. it is very usefull phone for me. but youre right. if i have to reset every here and there, its not a point.
recently i tested roms from lets say first 10 posts in this forum. tonight im going to install darkvisions 5.15 and add a few things that i miss. titanium launcher, i.e.
i hope that will satisfy me until i learn how to cook or untill somebody makes something better
No matter what the starter RAM is, open up the menu's and phone canvas and you're probably down by nearly 4M already.
Outlook and contacts seem pretty good, only about 1M for both.
Then Nimbuzz is a whopping 6M which is still better than running messenger and skype together.
Add on IE and its another 1.3 (not sure what opera is as my skills can't switch to mem usage without killing Opera )
So, for the basics its about 12-13M from the baseline
I've found TAI's version 14/15 pretty good so far around 23M free (with activesync running). Means, with my essential apps running, I'm around 10-11M free. Means I can still run Google maps, word etc ok.
It would be nice to have beautiful Manila or fancy Titanium (bug free) and about 20-23M free, just not found it yet. Any suggestions?
slowndes - I'm in the same place as you:
I'd got frustrated with my WM5 Hermes (SPV M3100) as Home2Pro and lovely community applets were rendering it slow, unstable and with poor battery life.
I tried several OEM ROMs and with/without custom ROMs on top; and then running Home2Pro. Certainly I get better performance with OEM ROM only.
But I now want PointSuite v2... And I think the "stripped" AT&T OEM ROM - used by many chefs - is still too "heavyweight" for my requirements. I'm still looking for a very light WM6.1 OEM.
And, after hours of hunting through these hallowed pages, I'm still looking.
Any ideas from anyone out there?
Since my last post, I'm downloading a couple of potential WM6.1 bare ROMs:
Black Satin - been around for a while now, but consistently good feedback;
CRC_r13.4_Naked_BigStorage - latest incarnation and offers a lot of space.
I'll road-test these over the coming few days, with Home2Pro and PointSense suite v2 on 'em; and I'll post my findings into this thread.
Oooo - installed CRC WM6.1 as per above; which, in its raw state, is a slick and sexy ROM.
And then I installed Home2Pro on top; plus my usual WiFi modem / Opera Mobile 9.7 / DinarSoft RAM optimisation applications.
(I've left off PointSense v2 Suite until 2.0.1.1 comes out - 2.0.0.4 has a few integrity issues it seems).
But I'm getting the lightning-fast speed and stability I've been looking for.
I am one very happy bunny. I recommend this. A lot.
I used to use whatever 6.1 ROM and install SBP mobile shell. Its pretty bulletproof, but not really that integrated into the phone, just a pretty surface.
I used Josh's SpringTime build pretty much for the entire summer, until I dropped my phone and the RED / GREEN buttons stopped working all the time. VERY WEIRD, but I decided to flash to FCW's new rom.
Its called Red Mist and its Build 23004.5.3.0 (according to the About screen). You can get it here.

I also installed PdG TouchFLO 2D dialer. It REALLY helps when you have big fingers. I have mis-dialed since. You can get it here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429179
I flashed the OEM Stripped rom first. I think it makes a difference.
My phone has not worked this well in a LONG time.
If you looking for WM 6.1 for me the most stable is faria.r32
now im with dark vision 5.0 the plathform is 6.5, but for 2 days i cant tell you nothing special about it just nice look, many apps

I'm in the same position as the first Poster. Now I trying all the Complete-Roms, then the Light ROMs with SPB Mobile Shell, PointUI, Manilla, Homescreen++, Wisbar Adcance, ..., and then hopefully have another ROM for the next Years, as Schaps ROMs was for me in the past.
Trial and Error....
Is there a thread/wiki with a comparative of free RAM from various ROMs? The xda-wiki one is quite outdated. How about all of us post the free RAM after a clean install + customizations + reset?
I'll start off first:
CRC_r13.4-naked / 5.2.20270 / WM6.1 - 26.86 MB

I have a Diamond that my wife has just started using and she really cant get her head round TF3D as she is used to push picture favorite contacts and she cant seem to get used to the sliding around. She really doesnt need it to be fully featured as she wont surf, use facebook etc. Its just for sms, contacts and a good interface. I looked at Titanium but I dont like the UI.
SPB Mobile shell seems to be the easiest and fastest solution.
I have tried a couple of full featured 6.5 ROMS here and with SPB mobile shell installed and you generally get so little RAM left over it hangs and then she is coming back to me saying the phone is a load of rubbish.
I know there is a good usuable phone in there (its in mint condition) but need to know what ROM is recommended to do this with, ie. that TF3D is not on there, mobile shell runs, and I am not likely to hang it.
As all the threads here seem to be WM6.5 lately, does anyone think one of these will be ok, or shall I look for a 6.1. I am an avid reader of the forum and I know people hate being asked what ROM but if there is someone out there with a little experience I will really appreciate it. Even an old reliable ROM would be OK, as the SPB MS3 will be doing the work.
I have already spent the last week trying a few ROMS and they stat off OK then the hanging starts and its back to the beginning.

Hi. I tried your ROM from post #4 and although the RAM figures were good, I got all the SPB MS3 loaded and configured nicely, on three occasions yesterday it hung, and when I soft rest using the red button, it started again as if from a Hard Reset and I would lose everything and have to then spend another hour reinstalling again. I respect everything you do in your work but I really wonder if this phone is capable of running WM6.5.
These are what I installed:
SPB MS3
Sense Revolution 2 Theme (with mortscript and message2reg)
thumbcal
g alarm
phone canvas
This brought the RAM usage up to around 75%.
It took an age to boot up everytime and would hang very often.
I tried using it myself in TF3D and not installing anything, and found that I couldnt call anyone from the contacts menu. The only way it works is using the phone dialer.
I am currently running Benko Clean v2.0, it is super quick and is a basic 6.5 ROM, which comes with Titanium (turn it off) and loads of RAM left over for another UI

I'm using the Aztor V2 ROM with SPB MS3. I have PUSH email on so activesync is running all the time.
I did a soft reset last around 23:00 last night, received about 8 emails and used TomTom for 30 minutes and I've got 58% program memory used. I don't get significant lag on anything. It doesn't crash (often)
Aztor V3 has just been released, I've not had chance to look at it yet though.
Check out the thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=422417
Generally a good ROM IMHO.
I am using Cloudy 1.3. It's very fast and light.
I suggest changing it's pagepool to 10 MB with Pagepool Changer, because it makes it a bit faster

Has anyone used BsB's 6.5.1A? It seems to be without TF3D.
Does anyone think that it would be better to just go to something like Dutty's V3.6b LITE, I mean I know its WM 6.1 but don't his ROMs have a reputation for stability?

clean, yes, lite no.
AZTOR stand for - Alpha Zero Tweaked Official Roms - IOW Alpha Zero takes the officially released ROM (6.1) and removes the bloated rubbish and adds several tweaks to make the ROM run smoother and quicker using less memory.
Nice
The easiest way is to try some of these ROM's, I know it can take a while to reconfigure everything but it's the best way to find out which is best for your personal needs - we're all different, that's why there's (thankfully) so many cooks
The main thing is disabling TF3D/TF3D2/titanium in the settings ->today section before installing SPB3. And also, phone canvases can use up to 10mb of additional RAM. So if you're into having a ram efficient phone, don't use phone canvas, use the standard WM dialer...
As for 6.5 i was pleased with BSB... now i am using Gen.Y, with TF3D2.1 and Tachi VGA dialer (they come with the rom), plus i'm using S2U2 and i get around 30-35mb of ram free (that's 34% of ram free the most).

Download the 6.5R edition. That's the non 6.5.1 version. The latest version is a bit...unstable. I have just flashed it and i already think i don't like it. Download pre-last version - my opinion.

I agree with you, and I tried that too, but it is the wifes first excursion into HTC land and she just found all the sliding around a bit cumbersome on the Diamond Screen. Hence a simple ROM, no bells and whistles, with a simple SPB MS3 interface, that is push button and there.
Unfortunately, the only customization you can do with TF3D is rearrange the tabs, delete some of them and slide the people tab up and down for favourites. If there was a way to have the favourite contacts page (with push button pictures) instead of the scrolling. The 'Programs' tab make it better but that is it.
I am an HD user and with WM6.5 and I love TF3D with latest Manilla, and I would have put that on the Diamond too, but the poor Diamond is just not up to running WM6.5, TF3D, Manilla 2.1 and be able to use the camera or browse albums, there isn't enough RAM or processing power. She will be handing it to me every 5 mins and asking 'what's it trying to do now?'

Does anything think they have the fastest Manila 2.5 ROM?
I'm trying to find one, that has fluent animations, quick response/no lag, but does not eat lots of RAM, 65% max.
Is this possible?
I'd prefer WinMo 6.5, but I've read (and personally found out) that WinMo 6.1 uses less RAM.
All the ROM's I've used use around 78-90% ram, which means I can't run any apps!
My Current ROm seems pretty good(Sun Y), but when some parts are a little laggy and stil uses quite a bit of RAM.
Think this will help alot of people if chefs try to work on a ROM like this. I know it's hard because looking for a Manila ROM is looking for a RAM eating ROM too but I'm sure it's possible, with lots of tweaking..
Oh and don't know if you've noticed on your diamonds, how annoying it is when you slide through contacts, sms, email inbox etc, that it's 'cutty' and laggy ,rather than the iphone style where its smooth and good feedback.

the problem is, the iPhone OS was written FOR the iPhone. Eventuall iPhoneOS7 or whatever will come out and will require hardware far better than the iphone...it will never be ported becuase apple dont like that sort of thing.
Manilla 2.5 was NEVER supposed to run on the diamond...it just hasnt got the hardware to do it properly.
Manilla 2.1 works fine, no problems, fast as you like...this was ALSO never supposed to run on the diamond, but it's been ported successfully becuase the phones is WAS supposed to run on arent far off the diamond hardware wise.
2.5 doesnt
yet
also this may sound stupid but many ppl actually doesnt know how to use slider correctly...
we dont have that iphone glass screens we have resistive screens actually made for stylus. if u want to move it use little bit of nail and u see how smooth it scrolls
I have build a WM6.5 ROM with HTC Sense everything working 100%, Manila is very fast and and ROM is stable. You get 36mb free RAM on startup, you will never run out of RAM again! (with GPS software you may run out of RAM)
I will be releasing my ROM soon... You can follow the progress of the ROM on Twitter. (see my sig)

I'm trying to find one, that has fluent animations, quick response/no lag, but does not eat lots of RAM, 65% max.
Is this possible?

No. As simple as that.
Manila 2.5 consumes alot - because it can do alot - as soon as scrolling through a couple of pages, and it will increase to at least 75% on WM6.1 no matter how light it is. If you want Manila, just cope with that. If you can't, forget about Manila.
And please stop comparing WM devices with that iphone crap. That's two different worlds. That iphone thing has 10% of the features of a WM device, and it sucks as a cell phone (which it is also supposed to be - not just an mp3 player).

36mb free means 69% on startup. That's quite a few mb more than Kisja's 6.1 ROM with Sense 2.5, so I hope you'll be able to tune that down a bit And I recommend you to free up way more storage. 50mb on main storage is not much!
I'd love to test your ROM when it's out, I hope you'll get it all to come out nice! Keep up the work!

I'm not comparing how good the iphone is - if you ask me you'll find I'm rather against the iPhone and its over rated popularity. The only thing that I apreciate from the iphone is it's 3.5mm jack that so many phones fail to have, as well as smooth scrolling.
Never said the iphone was better than WM.

Two days of reading and no choice for my first CustomROM.
I have the Diamond from more than a year with the last HTC Rom and I like it very much... really fast (lightning) and responsive. The only problem is that I want to try something new, haven't decided yet 2.5 or 2.1 and 6.1 or 6.5 I guess I have to give it a try. So can you give me a point to start from, a Rom that you liked... for now I'm thinking of donsalari's roms but more reading to come.
Anyway I totally agree with longice's comment about the iPhone bullsh*ts
Benkos is allright...
But like I said It's hard to find one which will give you more RAM and have manila 2.5/wm6.5.
And SUN Y is good too.
I've found SUN Y's to be the one with most response as well as easthetics..
THe most fluent ROM i've used is NRG's, except so much RAM Is used you can't even use the camera and some points

I've had great experinces with the Gen.Y ROM's, high recommended!
I'm currently tryin the SUN Y 6.1 rom with sense, and after a bit it can get very ram hungry, but that's mainly sense. I tried the 6.5 with sense and that was just rubbish, around 90% RAM after like 10 mins... Now i'm waiting on the RC2 of the SUN rom
This thread is gonna create flame.
Mod, please close it.
the fastest rom i ever used is 2.11 offical
but love cook rom and now 6.1 + TF3D 2.5
that my choose.
Deep Shining
It's a pity there are no more deepshining roms as they were the best, fast repsonsive and lots of memory to run apps, i have tried almost all the roms available and everytime I come back to deep shining 8.2.
Got to download the kitchen he release and have a go at updating to build 21876 and Sense UI 2.5
I'll be waiting ....

I'm waiting for U. I also used the Deepshining 8.2 and until now no other rom handled the speed and free ram better than this one.
sense 2.5 isn't a perfect port to diamond or diamond dose not have the necesary resrources to driveit right.I haven't seen one rom on the forum that has smooth sense 2.5 and when i say smooth i say like manila 1.X
If you want a fast and stable WinMo6.6 with Sense 2.1, find the DonSalari's Rom.
I've been looking and sometime even cooking some roms for a few years and this ROM was my choice.
WM6.1 is much faster and stable than 6.5. I also always wanted to stick with new 6.5.x builds, but then tried Gen.Y wm6.1. It's way faster and smoother, especially sense. Also ram usage is 10-20 percent lower.
Also, sense 2.1 seems to be way smoother than sense 2.5, especially seen right after soft reset, when it has to fully load tabs yet, so scrolling through tabs in 2.5 is not smooth
I have also tried allmost all of the roms on this site. Now i'm using the Shaks. P v4.30 ROM with wm6.1. It's a clean rom without manila and with all the originall HTC stuff + some additional applications. Now I'm using this Rom with spb ms 3.5.2.
The best wm6.5 i have tried is also the Don Salaris rom but it has some bugs and i have to soft-reset my device quite offten.

The problema its not the RAM coz sense 2.5 lags badly on Blackstone with more ram then the diamond so what is the problem? the CPU could be? the port of sense 2.5 is bad?
I have the 2.10 boot loader already installed. Which ROM is the best right now? Eye candy, funcional, and stable..
Need some guidance to point me in the right direction..
THANX
in my opinion dont wast time for 6.5wm mobile rome cause menu looks fine but other things are too slow (media app game) so... apply some 6.1 WM rom..but i`m not sure what you prefer ? performace or visual? if performace apply "Pays Rom"
If you want something stable go for CRC's ROM. It is fast and stable, and you can try out different home screens. I have been using this ROM for the longest time and it has never let me down.

WM 6.1 ?

yep......
Well now I can see that Hermes works better with wm 6.1 so you shouldn't be surprised
to see that people are actually suggesting you a wm 6.1 rom...Everything works on it, while
with wm 6.5 some of the nice applications doesn't work (like morphgear and pim organizer).
Yes 6.1 is stable and fast but you don't get the finger friendliness of 6.5
I've been flashing 6.5's roms reqularly when cooked by our chef's and in the end i always come back to que ppc's 6.5 b3 "bare bones" edition. Boots up with 28 megs free and a humungous 68 megs of storage.
The rest of the rom's be it manilla or the titanium makes the hermes go unresponsive after a few minutes of internet surfing.
Pim backup works nicely and pocket islam doesn't hang the phone l;ike the rest does.
If you want 6.5 finger friendliness, i truly recommend this rom.

No not Pim Backup application but Pim organizer the one with many more
options.Pim Backup works even on 6.5.3...But if you say that que ppc's bare
bone rom boots up to 28 MB of free ram than thats just one hell of a rom...I
will go and find where is that rom
