I just got this phone. i've been a g1 user for a while and now i want to get some ideas on everyone's favorite ROM. I'm going to read through and pick one i like, just want some idea of what everyone here runs
I'd suggest u try them all and make a choice. ROMs are like mates there isnt a best one just one best for you.
As Bxsteez said, there is no overall best. But I rather like the EnergyROM releases. I ran the last Warhawk for about a week without seeing any of the posted bugs, but just upgraded to the Genesis line.
The AtomAng ROM is popular, as well. Just go poke around in the ROM dev thread. Try them all. I went through 4 or 5 in the span of 2 days, before I settled on Energy.
hey thanks. i actually just put on the energy ROM and i think i'm in love...don't get me wrong i loved android but this is dope
Theres an Energy Windows mobile 6.5 ROM that's dead stable, stick to manilla 2.1 for now though if you want stability, i'm using a manilla 2.5 ROM and even though i love the new 'swish' features... bug free it aint.
I'd go for the bottom one of the 3.... tried and tested

The best ROM
This has been asked and answered so many times...there is no such "best ROM"
The best ROM is the one that fits better for your personal needs.
My best ROM could not be your best
Try severals till you get the one you like more!

Well your title thread was asking for the best, not for the most popular
Anyway, glad to see you finally search and found your best ROM.
So I don't wanna read the whole thread... which is the best ROM?
Nah Just kidding, I've been using energyrom, since I got the phone, and I love it, like everything about it how its organized, how it grapically looks stock, and how it performs. I lik 6.5 roms, and I'm not into the guys toying with the 2.5 and 2.6 cause I'm tired of beta testing, I want a phone I can enjoy
and as far as android goes, I didn't like it, I haven't followed it since I bricked my G1 beta testing for JF, but I felt suffocated using, I like the free of winmo, and the piracy!
EnergyRom vs MightyRom?
What about performance wise?
Feature wise?
Hey, Im coming from a CDMA TP1 and Now of course have a Tmobile TP2. Ive been holding off on flashing as Ive been waiting for the Official 6.5 to come out, But the more research I do the less I feel Tmobile will get one anytime soon, Please correct me if Im wrong!
SO Ive decided to take the plunge again and Flash this bad boy, Now coming from a tp1 Ive flashed my fair share and enjoy it very Much, except one thing, bugs, There always seems to be many bugs in Custom roms and fixes are always being made. I want a lite 6.5 rom that has the least amount of bugs, I have plenty cab files to get it how I want but once again I want a rom with the least bugs, great battery and a eyecandy dont matter.
So, Whats the best Tmobile TP2 rom out right now in your opinion??????
To tell you the truth all is great! All is the same, but just look different in visuals, builds, some programs, and features. Each chef has their own style so I would say flash them all and make a decision.
I can't tell you which one is better, but I can tell you the one in my sig is awesome!
Long time i don´t see one of this.
Keep questioning away my friend.

In before LOCK in 3, 2, 1....
i have to say that i have dl many roms here and i love the new EnergyRom "Photon" (23016) with manilla 2.1 as it works better for t-mobile US, very smooth and stable good battery life no freezes, landscape works the only problem is youtube is not working but i dont really use that so its not an issue for me. this is by fay my Favorite ROM right now.
just my 2 cents!!
Dont waste your time
They are all rubbish mate, dont waste your time, wait until HTC release theirs, will happen THIS WEEK!
Are you kidding (whoever said they're rubbish), custom ROM's are 3x (at least) better than Official ROM's!
But to the original poster, you have to find your own that fits you. There is no answer, your question doesn't belong in this section, and it will only spawn battles over which ROM is best.
But you'll find all the WM6.5 ROM's here: http://thewingster.com/wm65tp2.aspx Enjoy!
Disagree
I tend to disagree with most, Including the mods, in that this is a valid question that can be asked. It is not 'rubbish to flash' and 'everyone finding their own by testing' is not good advice in my opinion. Their are two, count them 2, roms that fit the above criterion for a cooked rom. One has 1 TRUE bug... Youtube freezes the phone. Biggie or small depending. The other is the one I currently am running and believe I will stick with because it has NO bugs. Zero, Zilch, Nada! Alot needs to be said for that.
I found the first and was singing its praises when I noticed a new rom posting stating the ideal rom in my opinion. I flashed it just this morning and aftera days heavy use with all the normal trouble shooting I find it to be 100% bug free. YOU WILL FIND BUGS WITH 99% of roms. This is the exception.
The first, my second favorite, was Miris 3.0 rom running manilla 2.1, and windows 6.5.
The second, my favorite, is A.Z.T.O.R. by alphazero. It runs manilla 2.0 and windows 6.5.
any questions feel free to pm me or post here unless it gets closed. If it does, like I said, pm me.
Please keep non-development questions out of the development forums.
I moved the thread to the general thread.
The best ROM?
This has been discussed so many times before.
There is no such "Best ROM"
What´s best for me can´t be best for you.
It´s matter of tastes, what you need on a ROM and what not.
The best way is to test severals till you get your personal "Best"
The best ROM?
Sorry double post...
Nice rom.
Mosess, Dude, thanks for suggesting the rom you did. I agree 100 % this is a very stable and great rom. Im gonna mess with it for a while and see how everything agrees with me. So far so good. thanks again.
I agree with Orb! There is no such thing as best cooked ROM. Its just matter of personal preference when it comes to flashing ROM's.
If you are really looking for a stable ROM, then stick with stock ROM.
Per greedydog:
Stop "Flaming" a member on XDA.
If you happen to not like his/her/it's rom..............switch to a different one.
As for this thread..............everyone is different in likings for a rom, experiment with installing some and making your own decision.

Hi, i am very new at all of this, i have never even rooted a phone before. my question is which rom do i want... there are like 10-15 of them, i want one thats fast, i hear that touchwiz really slows everything down so i guess one that gets rid of that. everyone talks about the pure google experience, which one(s) would give me that. but also with features like the cool crt thing, and the the toggles in the notification bar (4g,wifi) there was one with alot of different ones...
then like 2 weeks ago, the infamous bubby got ics working but there werent any fixes because apparently he was banned... so i guess, cant really expect anything new to come from there... is anyone else going to continue it, or start over? is bubby's stable enough?
also, one last thing, please dont laugh, but if someone could just tell me how the procedure works, i can watch the how to videos but the order is my question, first you root (with "odin"), then you flash a rom?
thanks

there are probably a lot more than 10-15. there could also be ROMs in other places (sites) for your device. the rule is, that you have to check ROMs yourself. what someone else finds great may not run so smoothly on your hardware. you just have to try them yourself. there are different 'flavors' of ROMs, because the user experience is subjective. sticking with the 'flavor' metaphor, do you think a group of 1000 people could tell you what flavor of ice cream you would like 'best'? of course not, people like different things. the only thing you can do is try them out, and decide for yourself.
I'm not positive, but I think almost all of the ICS builds you'll find will likely be 'alpha' or 'beta', at best. Which means that they're not really stable enough for daily use yet. right now, ICS is more of a proof of concept and for devs who are working hard to get it ready to be ported to your phone. asking 'Are we there yet?', isn't going to make it arrive any faster.
and to your last question. that's about right. when you've rooted, then you can flash. read, read, read. then when you feel ready...flash away.
hope this helps. good luck!
thanks for your help... yeah, i guess ive just got to check them all out... maybe try a couple different ones..

that's the best route. also, you can check youtube by searching for the name of a ROM you're interested in. sometimes you'll find walkthru videos that can help you eliminate some of them without wasting the time and effort of flashing. or maybe you'll see the video and say 'THAT'S the rom I want!!!'
Hi guys,
I just bought a secondhand DHD with Icecoldsandwich preinstalled. Although it didnt arrive yet, Ive been wondering which ROM to choose that would fit my needs best.
What Im actually looking for is a clean, fast and simple ROM, which would preferably support all the DHDs function like a stock ROM does - I really want a ROM that is for the every-day-use with few to no bugs at all.
Of course overclocking support and root would be very nice too
I thought about the CM7 but since there is so much to choose from I got lost a little bit, so I thought you could help me out.
Many thanks to you!
If You Want Fast And Clean without extras go with CM if you like sense choose sense other than that the thread will be closed cz there is no best rom
No one will be able to tell you what will work best for you and your device. The only way to find out is to take the tome out and read and test each one that catches your eye. A search would have told you this.
Hi all,
Not trying to spark a debate here but i've just got my old Desire HD back and i'm about to pass it on to someone, so it's either, guess by the comments i'm reading, flash every rom on here or ask you fine people.
I know comparisons are frowned upon, but based upon my needs i thought that it'd be ok.
So the question is, what rom would suit someone for stability and pace, something that isn't going to give up the ghost mid call or stutter like a drunk while browsing?
Many thanks and thanks to the dev's for keeping this great phone alive, I sort of missed it when I held it again.
Thanks in advance to anyone who answers
PS: I'm about to flash Moonraker as it seems to be a final release.? ?
PPS: Just remembered how cool 4Ext recovery was, damn i miss these apps.
These threads have a way of morphing into best ROM fanboy fights, so it's time to close up shop on this one. For stability, I'd RUU back to stock and be done with it.
