Well, cooking a (good!) rom is not as easy as it sounds, but you can always give it a try.
Search the forum for 'kitchen' and you will find a few, usually there's a guide included in the stuff you have to download.
O, btw...this is a good one to start with:

good luck!

Dude,
I see you are a newbe, some simple advice for you. There is pages and pages of stuff on rom upgrades on this site, you just have to look. take some time to search the pages for what you want. you can even use google to search and finish your search question with XDA developers. But thereis a good search button on this site. I used to ask questions but got an answer much faster by looking and you learn more by doing that. you have a good machine there so look on here and use it. there are some really clever people putting stuff on here so ENJOY IT
P.S once you have unlocked your rom and flashed it you can put what rom for a universal you want on it.
Have fun

i already did that but since there's so many information and so many rom versions, radio, etc...And i cant find nothing interesting in the sticky's, guides or something to help...:X its hard do search for something that i dunno what it looks like.
i read the wiki but it doesnt says if i need to backup the actual rom.
im going to do more search for it, one more time...
ps: they should put the "important" guides in sticky, but that is just my opinion
hi
I tried looking around and really couldnt find any information for n00bs to help them cook there own roms.
could someone please advise me where this information is available or if someone can do a breif guide on what to do and how?
dont meen to ask TOO much but its really been buggin me.
Your pretty much going to have to read and search...
I have been trying to make my own for awhile and no luck until a couple nights ago I finally got something "cooking".
I found I ended up using two or three different programs to cook with since they all seem to do a little different.
Sorry I can't personally be of more help but you are going to have to search and read since no one will probably take the time to make it "super easy".
Bhups,
Start with the wiki. There are now a number of ROM kitchens that make cooking "relatively easy" to where we were a few months ago.
My suggestion would be to find the threads in the Development & Hacking forum and simply read through them to build up your knowledge base. This will take some time so be prepared.

Ummm ... you asked this very same question in this thread, and were given an answer (by me)
Why start a new thread with this, instead of reading answers to your last post on the issue?
-pvs
Search the Wizard thread for Faria's Kitchen, it has lots of information about cooking a ROM. Just remember that most of things might be the same for Hermes, but you cant put a wizard ROM on hermes and vice versa. Good luck, keep searching and reading. Follow the link in my signature as needed.
cheers all...
pvs - i'm sorry, I think I missed that thread.
Been so fustrated tring to find places for tutorials I forgot what I posted where.
I thougt someone may have a dummies way of cookin roms ready so they can post it as a reply on a new topic and it can be eaiser for others to find this solution.
It obviously now seems like there is ALOT of reading to do on this, and in multiple places.
okidoki peeps..
me off to it.
Thanks again to all!
Hi All,
I have been trying all the different gr8 6.1 ROM's cooked up and available in different threads on imate JASJAM.
So far so good. I only face a difficulty in finding out the updates done to a particular ROM.
It will be very nice if all of these gr8 ROM's PAYS,SCHAPS,PDAViet,Binky's,CRC's,OS 5.2,S64,Bepe's .. and many more which I have tried at one place or one thread.
It will be good to locate , download , install and report any issues.
thanks
Ravi

I take it you mean the HTC hermes?
Also did you want someone to come wipe your nose as well?
You may also need it man some time when you want to test them soon.

Thankyou Ravi, please start one for us, just make sure you can update it at least twice a day, otherwise it won't be much use.
go easy on the guy mate hes new here..
U r looking @ the best place for roms and its all in one place too, We dont have it all in a single thread coz then it will be too hard to manage them, try using the search feature http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php
hope it helps ya out mate
I'm afraid I've had to resort to posting the million dollar question, how do I flash a modified ROM? I've been searching for hours on how to but just can't find anything that explains things in plainly. I've visited various websites that have links here but I can't work out where to even start. There's all this talk SPL and stuff that I have no clue what it is.
Could somebody please post replies to this and guide me through it? I'd appreciate it very much as I really like my Diamond but it could do with a boost.
Thanks
Maybe you over looked the search take a look at this thread it will help you,

Thanks guys for the pointers. I must admit I've been looking at these before. However, having looked at them in a bit more detail, I can see how it's starting to get together.
There were 3 things that I couldn't find on the pages...
1. How do I back up my existing ROM (and everything that will be overwritten) so should things go wrong, I have a restore option?
2. The page about upgrading your ROM says.."now download a ROM of your choice". Somehow that doesn't sound as simple as it's put. There are ROMs all over the place, how do I know what will work on my Diamond.
3. Is it really worth upgrading the ROM? i.e Are there any actual success stories of the Diamond "flying" along as if it's just been injected with steriods?
Look forward to your replies.
Thanks
1: ROM backup - search is your best friend, there are a few open threads about this procedure.
As for making a backup of your contacts/msgs etc, you can sync the device with windows, use PIMbackup or sprite backup.
2: You won't know till you find a ROM which fits your needs. There is no universal BEST rom...
3: Yes there are. ^.^

a good place to start is by only downloading ROMs from the Diamond forums

Meander through the forum, there are many clean, light, ultralight ROMs out there that you could easily use.
Also, I recommend looking into cooking your own... it's time consuming...frustrating...addicting....and very rewarding... you can also then have exactly what you want cooked in so come hard reset time... the only thing you need to worry about is the data
Good Luck and have fun
