is it worth to try the official EU ROM? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

in a couple of weeks after using ROMs with Sense 2.5 im going to run the actual stock OEM European ROM on my Tilt 2 just to get the taste of how it really is before Sense 2.5, despite the fact ill lose a lot of stuff from 2.5 but hey, it doesnt hurt to try right?
so it really worth the time, flashing this ROM?
how good is the battery and performance?
is it going to brick my Tilt 2 if i flash a EURO ROM?

1. Yeah, its really worth flashing that rom, Ive got it on my TP2.
2. Battery and perfomance are good, Sense 2.5 with Cookie Home Tab rocks, just install tools for cleaning ram cpu from time to time(Ram Sweeper, Clean Ram, etc...)
3. No, you not going to brick your device, I know guy from Texas that did it without any issue, just in case, install Hard spl before you flash new rom, you`re always install stock spl with relocker.
Regards,

installed and Sense 2.5 messaging was so slow (rest of rom was quite fast) it was almost un-useable... so flashed NRG cookie rom, sense 2.5 works fine

XERO_Racer doesn't want to install the ROM with Sense 2.5, but the ROM with Sense 2.1. In that ROM Messaging isn't slow at all. In fact, that ROM is overall a bit faster than the latest ROM (with Sense 2.5).

HTC Diamond running dual ROMS?

Hey, is it possible for the Diamond to run dual ROMS(eg. having two ROMS on your phone and choosing one to boot, like a pc having two operating systems)?
Cheers,
scruffy_joe
nope... limited ROM/RAM
Maby two Lite versions of a cooked ROM?
Just curious what would be the benefit of running dual ROMs?

maybe for branded phones? easier to switch back to the original stock firmware without flashing it back for warranty reasons...
can't really see a porpouse for anything else here..
Maybe have one stable rom and a beta rom for testing
If dualboot was possible, I'd have my favourite cooked ROM and a linux version to fiddle around till it works someday

ques

sooooo, got my touch pro 2 today, and i thought the 6.5 on there would look like the one on the HD2.....do i need to update something?
You need to install a custom ROM w/ sense 2.5 on it. I believe the only stock ROM w/ 6.5 2.5 is sprints.

Yea most 2.5 will, but as they are custom ROMs some chef will remove those tabs. what carrier do you use?
tmobile, i really liked the UI of sense on the HD2 so i thought it would be the same

You can download custom ROMs with the same UI of the HD2.
First you will want to read this thread a couple times until you are comfortable with it:

It should give you all the information needed to flash your first custom ROM. ROM selection is completely personal, so asking here won't get you much help...read the threads and see what other users are commenting would be my best suggestion. Also, sort the ROM forum by most viewed/posts:

can the touch pro 2, support 16GB SD card?
Yea it should work fine. Strangely i've seen some posts about SD cards not working, but it seems to be random.

ok, thanks
And, you could flash a stock 6.5 sense 2.5 rom, just find a s/n for update download from HTC site, for example, european rom (WWE). I know that gays from USA and USA carriers installed that rom with no issues. And, TP2 supports sd cards up to 32gb.

[Q] Froyo Question

I just Flashed Cyanogen's 6 Custom ROM from being on 2.1 Stock Eclair. I thought that Froyo Added support for Flash on the Web Browser. But I can't use Flash at all or even see Adobe Flash in the Market at all. Does this ROM not Support Flash? Or do I have to do something to Enable it.

Froyo supports flash but our phone's processor does not so thats why you dont find it in the market, what we have on roms with sense is flash lite plugin not full flash and thats pretty much all we can have on the slide... full flash support is just for higher end phones with armv7 processors, we have armv6.. to sum up, if you want/need some kind of flash support go for a sense rom (CR_MOD or 3rd sense with javascript disabled) or buy another phone xD
oh damn.. And hear I thought you could..
Thanks a lot for the Information.
And just assuming from what you told me, does that mean that HTC will never Push a 2.2 for the myTouch 3G Slide? (3rd Sense supports Flash?)

we are hoping that htc and t-mo give us the update but we now think is not gonna happen... its sad... and yes 3rd sense is a froyo sense rom ported from the update that the htc legend got a couple of weeks ago and yes it has the flash lite plugin that comes with sense

what rom to use

Hope someone can point me in the right direction here, I have a rooted Telus HTC Desire HD. I have tried several ROM's and so far none quite fit the bill. I am looking for a ROM that is basically a rooted version of the stock rom. I only rooted my phone so I could use a clockwork recovery and be able to backup my device. Also Sense is needed as I use google calendar along with pure calendar to display my appointments, contact birthdays and facebook contact birthdays. Facebook for sense seems to be the only way to easily do this. I have RCmixHD which is supposed to be a port of Telus stock rom & I like it except that it does not have Canadian or US English options. If anyone has some ideas on where to look next I sure would like to know.
Hi jmc7895
Since you like sense.. you can try Android Revolution HD and LeeDrOid. Well you can try the Gingerbread version of them, you also have the option to try out the Froyo version.
Cheers. =)
I have to say I am no Android freak, I just started to use Custom Roms for 3 weeks.
But I could honestly recommend Android Revolution HD 5.1.x to everybody.
stable, fast, almost a rooted stock Rom, no trash inside, no problems until you do not install any "Sense 3.0 Addons"
only follow the guides and you will be happy with that rom.
I am currently using Revolution HD.
First custom rom i've tried, I love it. Looks exactly like stock Gingerbread, only waaay faster and with better battery life. Plus there's 24/7 support on the rom's thread
Just follow the tutorials, you'll be fine !
The only downside I could think of is that the rom is not directly available in ROM Manager. Not a big problem anyway =)

[Q] Put T-Mobile G2 back to stock Android

My G2 is rooted and I flashed Virtuous Sense 3.0 on it. It's kinda sluggish and sometimes it hangs. How can I flash the stock ROM back? Please help...
Let me ask a few questions...
What were you running previously?
Did you not do a backup prior to flashing a new ROM?
Do you want to go back to full stock, s-on, out of the box?
Thanks for the reply. It was stock, S-ON, out of the box before the OTA update to 2.3.4, then I downgraded to 2.2 to gain root, then flashed VS 2.0 first, then 3.0, and performance-wise, they're the same to me and hangs once or twice a day. My backup is now a VS 2.0. HTC Sense to me is good, but I can live without it. Just want my G2 back to stock, it was GREAT!
Search around the Dev section, if I recall there are some pre-rooted stock ROMs on there. Or you can just make the jump to CM7, maybe to CM9 (or CM9 based) ROM. I'm running Andro V13 and it runs well. As far as sense ROMs, I tried out Revolution HD for a few hours and was by far the smoothest Sense 3.5 ROM I've had.

Check out the dev section, I have a rom called g2slim. Its the newest stock ota update ripped clean with battery saving mods and speed tweaks. It has a ton of free ram at boot too, all those stupid lil apps take like 2mb ram each. I know it don't sound like a lot, but they add up!
