Hi.. I am now interested in improving my good old Compact IV. As I got the Desire and the Compact IV is out of warranty anyway - I would like to give it a try to keep it as a good 2nd handset.
I know I should 'search' the threads. I have done that... But there are so many here, with long threads following and its hard to know which is actually proven to be good. What I want is a stable ROM, thats fast and whitout any major bugs etc. Could you pls let me know which one(s) I should consider. There are so many here!!
Cheers

Don't forget hardspl first before flashing rom.
Best ROM you can get with all the latest new soft in it are the ones from Yozgatg.
Then you have some ROMs made from the base of Yozgatg, with some new addons like MEMO ROM, or the one from Omniwolf.

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

Hi everyone,
I'm very new to the world of cooking or flashing roms etc. I appreciate this will be quite boring to most of you, but I was hoping someone could help me understand the basics. I'm from the UK and have just brought a HTC Touch Diamond on Orange network which I am very happy with. I am however keen on the idea of trying a new, potentially faster ROM. I currently have 1.37.405.1WWE. I have read a lot of good things about Manila and some others on here (elite) but I'm unsure whether to try one or not. My first question is how hard or easy is it to install a new ROM and what could go wrong? Could a newbie potentially ruin my new phone? Can I re-install the old ROM if I don't like the new one? I have read a lot about people doing manual changes etc , but I don't know any coding. Do I need to? I have searched the forum, but couldn't find any answers to such basic questions. Please could someone help me?!?!?
Thanks
It is not very hard to flash your phone with the ROM of your choice and usually it's quite safe as long as you follow the recommended procedure. Installing HardSPL is the first step which will ensure that a cooked ROM will not "brick" your phone. This is flashed as per the normal flashing procedure. Following this, you can choose the ROM you fancy ( I use Bepe's and I am very happy with it) and flash, again using the same procedure. The cooked ROMS are much faster than the stock ROM and usually very stable. Bepe produces 2 version of his ROM, Basic and Premium, whose major difference is that Basic does not include TF3D. Finally you can also flash a Radio ROM if for whatever reason you are not happy with the connectivity features and stability provided by your current ROM.
No coding required to do any of the above.
there is a nice guide here which shows you step by step how to flash a ROM:

direct link to upgrading ROM:

I reckon the "flashing" part of your question has been answered.
Regarding the "cooking" part, what can I say... You won't learn till you do it yourself.
There are a few excellent guides out there (you can start with the xda-dev wiki)
And remember - search is your best friend. Both questions could have been answered if you'd have searched the forum.
I just bought a touch diamond (US 3G version), and would like to try some customized ROM released here.
One simple question, what is the latest or best HardSPL we can find now? I know there are a lot of threads about hardspl in the forum. But just too many. After 2 hours of reading, I still do not know which one is the newest one and the best one? Could you guys point me the direction and give me the link of that particular thread? Thanks a million.
Also, about the ROM, I am looking for a ROM with original HTC looking (basically black today screen and black touchflo 3D, though blue is probably fine with me), but faster, with all the tweaks applied. And if possible with latest OS builds. Any suggestions?
I did search and reading a lot. Just confused with so many different HardSPLs and ROMs. Hope someone more familiar with this forum can help me out. Thanks!
SPL's & ROM's...
Unfortunately, like so many things, ROM's are based on personal opinion, so there is no 'best' or 'worst', just one's you like and one's you don't.
Try here for your SPL - both GSM and CDMA versions covered. You must do this first or you'll end up bricking your device.
Next, just try the ROM's until you find one you like. The one I'm currently using is pretty much standard (as you would like), but with all the latest versions of applications / software and the latest drivers, etc. I think you'll like it! Try here.
Don't ask me how to tell if you have CDMA or GSM device because I've no idea how to tell the difference !
Have fun
AFAIK there is a sticky thread about HardSPL !
AFAIK in forum rulez the question whats the last / best rom are disallowed !
just read some threads please !
In the HardSPL thread the first and second post Oli explains everything Who should use what HARDSPL ... so dont think thats complicated.
Please UTFSE and flash some so you will know what u like best !!

Thanks a lot. I just flashed the HardSPL and the ROM you linked in your post. They works very well. Thanks!
One more question, I am working in a high building, and my desk is in the 3rd floor. I am getting very poor cell phone (GSM, T-mobile USA) here. I am wondering if anyone can suggest a better radio ROM for T-mobile USA? I really want a better signal reception. Thanks in advance!
Hello!
I'm looking for a ROM with WM6 only (without any change or customization) for HTC P3600.
Who knows where can I find it!?
I'd like to get a fresh ROM with WM6 because I'm not finding a customized ROM I like.
My regards!
Felipe
Please not again. If everyone would like to install a Rom without read and search it will be a nightmare !
So please, read the post of each Rom, the wiki...Try and report : that's the best way to have your own opinion. Because everyone have different needs so : try yourself !!!
If you're looking for official release of WM6, try this :

Shym,
as I said, I'd like to install applications by myself. Because of it, I'd like to get a fresh WM6. I already tested a lot of Cooked ROMs available here, but no one attends me as I want.
I made a lot of searches and I didn't find it. Thank you a lot for these link!
I'll make a download of the ROM and test.
My regards!
The official release is not (my opinion) the best Rom and the fastest Rom you can find !!
If you want a ultra light Rom (fast & stable), try this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=472178

heya there,
i am kinda new around here, i know a little about themes, programs and stuff, but now i want to change my rom, i have the original one:
ROM: 1.93.479.3 WWE
DATE: 07/25/08
RADIO: 1.00.25.05
my question is, what rom should i install, the official one, which come from the producer site, or a modded one found around here on xda?
i searched the forum, dont get me wrong, but my problem is, if i put a modded rom, which one, which one is working well and without many errors.
i know that all of them r made by enthusiast ppl who dedicate their time to make such a great job, but i am kinda stuck in the fields, i dont know which one to pick, realy.
if anyone tryed some of them and can share some experience i'll be very glad.
i sow that the radio version is very importat, some of the roms arond here have some apps missing and some apps new comparing with the original ROM realise.
duno realy what to pick.
About TF3D thems i read some and used some, at this very moment i use the Dirty Paper Theme By Zitoun, awsome theme, and now i think i gona try the Copton GoliaX, i'll be thinking about.
all the best, teo.
PS: if u guys realy think that i shoud search and try it myself without any help just shoot, i dont mind. but i dont want some savant asistance, some main ideeas, maybe what to search, or what to look at when i search for a modded ROM.
Hi,
I had the same question, when I just got my phone and find out about this great site!
I was told to try myself, and find out whitch is best for me! I was mad at first, but now I get it. Everyone has theys opinion about the best ROM, one likes stock, other moded. Another likes this aplication, for someone that aplication is useless!
So try yourself!
What I like and worked for me, and many other people, you can see in my signature! Fast, stable, with aplications that you might find usefull! Also upgrade your Radio, also I like one in my signature!
If you want stock ROM with performance upgrades try AZTOR X2 Ultimate!
thanks a lot for your reply, i will try them, and i know what u said, i usualy search and after ask for directios, but now i searched and there are too many, or semes to me that are too many thats why i asked here, for some ppl to share some minimum experience with some ROMs.
i found VIPER rom ,althow and some others. i will look after yours, maybe it will be good.
oh, btw, is there a diference between 6 or 8 MB roms, read something about that.
the old rom will be completly erased, yeah? it will be replaced by the new one? and after a hard reset it will be still the new one?
thanks, teo.

I don't know what you mean by 6 or 8 mb roms, but there is such thing as pagepool that you can set to 6-8-10-12 mb etc. I don't know much about that, I know more is better! There is sticky about pagepool!
Yes, the old rom will be erased, and yes it will be replaced by the new one! And yes after hard reset it will be the new one!
There is a sticky about rom flashing, in the biginning it looks like it's conplicated task, but aqtualy is very easy! Just read the sticky!
oky, i am going to read more intensive about this matter, and hopefully, in the end i will find a good, stable and well done rom.
thanks againg for the advices.
teo.
