All the current Rom's are good. As others have stated, it really depends on what you use your device for. Do you like a lot of apps pre-loaded with less space or do you like to load your own apps.
Again, it is up to you,....Just try one or two and decide for yourself...then you can write a review of the Rom's you tried...
If one thread was closed,,,this one will also be closed soon...good luck

I really wanted 2nd post.

speaking from experience ??
Dude, it's like asking "what's the best car?"
You gotta first know what you want and need.
Then you gotta research for the viable options.
Then you gotta ask some targeted questions.
Then you may have to try a couple on.
Asking "which is the best ROM?" is just ignorant. If you can articulate what you are specifically looking for (stable OR fast OR latest updates OR etc.) then maybe you have a chance at someone giving you a meaningful answer.
If there was one ROM that is fastest, most stable, with the latest updates, then there'd only be one ROM.

Very useful comments, all of you, i have to admit... Is this the kind of posts that made you become senior members?
How about quick explanation to the poor guy that there are different opinions and flavours of different ROMs and that nobody can define the best ROM, but he has to try several and choose one? Based on stability, rapidity, features, etc?
Ive been reading this forum for quite a while now, and i see it decading. maybe its because everybody knows everybody and u want to keep it this way, any newcomer is not welcome..

yes, and i agree any new member should start by reading a lot and then post. but as in life, you dont happen to meet only perfect people. and then what do you do? kill/hate/laugh at all the others? or maybe try to tell them smth and make them realize stuff, or just ignore them and do smth useful with your time?
i know it might get frustrating after a while, but there will surely be more like that guy coming this way, so ull get crazy at the end...

I figured I would let you tell the guy so you could be a senior member too......who cares junior or senior members should think before they ask. I think the best no joke response is the guy looking at this from a perspective of buying a car. Oh and ask me what car is best....I will tell you a Yugo.
At least somewhat of a starting point. I'll also say this. That unless you are really willing to invest some time (and frustration) into flashing ROMs, you may want to stick with the official ROMs. One was just released for the Hermes WM6. Please install Olipro 2.10 first before trying to flash. And please don't blame anyone but yourself if you brick your phone.

yeah i know... its just disappointing when you look at the state of the forum at the moment... there are about 15 to 20 threads on which is the best ROM, 20 to 30 here is the Official Windows mobile 6 blah blah blah <rant> blah blah blah blah </rant>
does anyone have a link to the guitar hero cab? greatly appreaciated
Seconded.... except my message is much to short
Me too Please !!
why is everyone so protective of it, ive seen numerous posts on this site with people claiming they have it yet noone wants to give it up. it'd be greatly appreaciated i mean we are all here for the same reason, to help eachother out.
Probably because its copyrighted
just because someone has it, it doesnt mean they are going to freely give it out to anyone. It's not being rude, just selective. For example, if I had this game. I would only give it out to other people that have contributed to this site, not just a bunch of leechers that gain info or software and have nothing reciprocating to offer. And secondly it would be via PM or other communication ways. Not posted publicly on this site (which is against site rules)
Put it this way.... i'm not going to tell you where ( again against site rules) but there IS a site that has this app posted ( cTacked version) but you will need to find out where it is posted for yourself.

Quite true, but isnt distributing edited versions of Windows Mobile O/S.
I am not complaining btw without Kavana and Rickys WM6.1 i would be stuck with BT Bloatware.
its really not that great. i was able to nail every song on the highest settings with little effort. its mainly good to just show off. plus you need a good interneet connection to get the songs

so you leechers keep your grubby paws off
I'm not a leecher. Never asked for a damned bit of your warez (I always hated the whole fake-music genre of games), but it seems like I hit a nerve with that comment. Guess if you have it, you're a leecher.
All I was saying is that having something like guitar hero makes certain people feel special...because they have it and others don't. If they let it out too liberally, just like the child in the schoolyard, they're not special anymore because everybody is the same again. They lose the "look what I got and you don't" shine.
It's a nasty attitude and shows that people really don't grow up. If you don't want to give it out, you really don't have to say anything at all. But it's the schoolboy in you that has to yell "MINE!"
To the original poster, Guitar Hero III mobile is available online. T-Mobile has it in their downloads as well. And I'm not sure who told you we're all here for the same reason: to help each other out. There are quite a lot of people here who feel they're at some elite status and can't be bothered with people who are where they were, say, ten months ago.
problem is, that most people dont contribute to this site ( or at least this forum) they sit here asking all sorts of questions, but never offer any help to others. Im not an eliteist.... i did what most techy type guys most like did when they first got their phones, they dabbled with it, figured crap out for themselves, and when they didnt, they found the almightly google for help. Once they started to put 2 & 2 together with what their phone could and couldnt do, they started offering help to others, and i stress help. Help is not giving out software that they have and saying: " here ya go! " help is actually resolving someone elses problem. and i hardly think that a software request is a problem. For those certain individuals that i've seen on this site actuall make a signifigant contribution to help others that are in need, when they've hit me up for software, i've always hooked them up, but for the ones that "hit & run" and have not had anything to offer to date, i dont give them anything. (and i stress give). its not like im going to be seeing these people on what you call the schoolgrounds anytime soon and i dont really care how many people have the same software i have. i do feel that some deserve it and some dont , based on their merit. simply googling guitar hero III and finding a thread in this forum, finding out that there is a guitar hero III for the mobile phone and then requesting it is not contributing anything in any way. ( BTW i've been with this forum since nov of 2006 and have had a smartphone since WM2003 so i dont know where you are getting your 10 months ago figure)
Nah, dude, that wasn't meant as a slight to you. I can't disagree with anything you wrote. I'm fairly new here myself (though I've had a smartphone since I had WM2003 on my Samsung SCH-i600 with Verizon). I joined it because it's a relatively well-respected forum in the smartphone community and a place that everyone asking questions elsewhere is sent to.
The problem is this forum just lacks moderation and organization. Being new here, I feel sorry for people just showing up and having to dive through this mess. Yes, a lot of questions get repeated. But it's fiendishly easy to say "justfuckinggoogleit.com" to the point that over 80% of a user's posts reflect that..again, without giving any real help. It makes the community look bad as a whole. That's what pisses me off.
I think being called a leech kinda set me off, too, since there's nothing on my phone (except the ROM) that's not either bought-and-paid-for or freeware.
im not calling you specifically a leech. im calling the people with 2 posts, one being "hey, can you also send guitar hero to me too??", leeches. they are the same retards that post 400000 times "HELP! ZOMG!!! I FINALLY GOT THE ROM TO WORK BUT MY KEYBOARD LAYOUT IS MESSED UP". ya know what i think of that? **** YOU AND YOUR KEYBOARD. if you are too stupid to read or use the SEARCH function (not google), then you are too stupid to use a phone like this. i realize that most are just lazy and are above searching for the answer or reading a few pages..to them i also have a heart felt **** you.
if someone has 50 or 100 posts and asks a silly question, i will gladly provide the answer if i know it. but the guy with 2 posts in 6 months can go find it himself.
when your first reaction to an issue you have with your phone is to post it in a new thread....you dont deserve help. how about doing some of the legwork yourself instead of posting "i NEED a step by step set of instructions blah blah blah". what you NEED is a kick in the nuts.
and if you really feel that by us saying "go do a search the topic has been discussed 4500000 times" makes the community look bad.....how does the community look when you have a bunch of posts by people with 2 post to date, asking all the same questions as eachother? i think its retarded that some senior users actually have to use their signatures to list step by step instructions for some of the most talked about topics, just so they dont have to type it for the 10000th time. hows that make our community look? makes it look like there are a handful of people that know what they are doing and it makes the rest look like a buncha n00b tards that are leading eachother down the stupid trail.
SO damn true!!! On that note LMFAO LMFAO LMFAO LMFAO

I am apologize for asking for a green theme, but I have been looking everywhere for one and cant find it. I'm not just some idiot stoner, in fact I am somewhat educated and have a degree from UAB in computer science. I have just recently started learning how to work with the android phones as far as modding them.
I'm not a junkie, I promise, and if I were, do you think I would have a computer and a g1 phone. I am happily married and I support my wife and kids and am on my way to owning my own house. so please don't call me a junkie just over pot. I do not use drugs, smoke cigarettes, or drink. I just smoke.
I'm not trying to advertise to anybody about smoking and could care less what anyone thinks, and I think the problem lies in all the uneducated, ignorant people who think pot is more drug than alcohol.your trying to condemn me for smoking, when there are people going homeless from alcoholism. I'm sorry that my first thread was pot related, but I havn't needed to post anything else on here because all my other questions have been answered on other posts that I have read.
I already tried to use sirmez's green version of prodigal sun but every time I do it gets past the g1 screen but will just freeze at the boot screen.
For all those educated smokers and the ones that helped plead my case thanks for the support.
I am using cyanmod 4.1.10.1 recovery 1.4 on the dream g1 the only theme that I have been able to use is one from here called dream. I'm still asking for some help
UAB? You are aight with me....I'm from Birmingham.
But anyway, when the world figure that weed is less harmful and would be more profitable than cigarettes (esp. over here and they can tax the crap out of it), it's going to be legalized and everyone can all look back at that thread and lol....
I didn't even see why it was that deep but heh...*shrugs*
*and this is coming from someone who doesn't smoke, drink, or takes anything*

Try to wipe, flash the ROM, reboot, cut off, drop back into recovery, and then flash Green_P_SuN it should not loop after that good luck

Yeah he is a good guy, he helped me by porting over a theme. Openhome is a good program, I used it before root. It did not slow the phone down much, and with a Cyan ROM it shouldn't be too bad at all. Might help with theme issues, and finding a theme you like and have it work. But you sure you want a theme like that? Would your boss mind if he walked up from behind as your checking your phone and saw the screen?
EDIT: saw that the newest openhome is having issues. Panda home is well reviewed and free.

XDA has been around a while, and the dream/android has been around almost a year. Forums by their very nature grow and become more jumbled with info and posts and repeated or useless info as time goes on. And while it is possible to slow this by posting correctly, searching, and other means, it will happen. You could archive old threads and try to gather up useful info into sticky threads, but there is no way to fix the "mess" other than a complete wipe of the forum. I can do searches and pull up threads from 2005 for example. Complaining that the forum is getting crowded and jumbled is like using a vacuum cleaner and complaining the bag is getting full. Forums are there for people to use to ask questions and share info/ideas. Some people do abuse the system with posts that neither provide useful info or ask questions. Some post without searching for answers. It will happen, but you do not have to be an a** about it, if you know the answer or better yet, know where the thread/post is that answers the question, provide a link, it will keep the new thread short and unused as the person can go to the proper thread. I agree that people should search before posting questions and search for longer than 2 minutes, but not everyone has time to search for hours for the answer to a question. My rule is, search for at a minimum of 15 minutes before asking a question, longer is better if you are finding related info and a little more digging will help. No amount of forum rules or bannings will prevent a forum from filling up and eventually becoming a "mess", merely slow the process at best.
^ was only saying this because of instead of locking delete them. They have before they will again so don't lock just delete.
Yeah, if a theme does get out of hand, deleting is good.
Its best not to argue on forums, friendly disagreements are fine. Most of the time, arguing on a forum is like arguing with a wall. Best to keep posts related to the subject matter, in this case Android related. Who cares if he likes the smoke and his first post is for a theme about it, he asked a question related to the subject of the forum.
I don't think someone should be banned or deleted just for posting in the wrong place or asking a question that a simple search would answer. However, if they make a habit of it and do it many times in a short time, a warning followed by a temp ban may be all that is needed. Of course a perma ban may be needed for repeat offenders.
This thread is off the general topic of the forum and he has said his piece and apologies, we can close this thread and move on now. No need for any more bashing or hard feelings and further craziness.
You're an idiot. There is no such thing as an "educated" smoker....you may have a good education and smoke pot, but that just makes you even more stupid.

I see the D.A.R.E. program got through to someone. Way to go, buying the governments religion.
Smoking pot isn't a big deal. Get over it. People get addicted to anything they find comfort in. Look at all the obese people that use food as a crutch, or people that are addicted to running every morning because it makes them feel better.

Ok first of all it would be more stupid. Stupider is not correct grammar. So before you go and start calling people stupid you might want to take a look in the mirror.
By the way before you come back and start throwing bad grammar again and calling me "stupider" for smoking pot or something I have never smoked or done any sort of drugs in my life. But, I do have a lot of friends that are what you might call stupider and they are actually very far from being stupid. In all honesty, probably way smarter than you'll ever be. But, enough fighting over the internet. I have other things to do. It's been fun though.
Ps. you don't have to defend yourself. You may be one of the smartest people to walk this earth. I am just basing that off the one post I have read from you and its grammar and narrow mindedness.

You Sir, are a F*ck!ing idiot! You really should educate yourself before making stupid comments. You are entitled to your own opinion. And, I will respect your opinion. But, its not Fact. As, you so irresponsibly stated. Society has an "image" of what/who a pot smoker is. They call them Burnouts, they say they're lazy, they live in Mom and Dads basement and play video games all day long without a job. I know upwards of 100 people that smoke. Every one of them are successful, educated, and decent human beings. One's you'd be proud to know. Societies image, applies to not one of them. Don't get me wrong. The others definitely do exist. But, weed is not their problem. Those people have other issues they are likely suppressing (Those people probably should not smoke. They aren't responsible enough.). But, you Sir, are a lemming. You choose to follow whats shoved down your throat by society, media, and the government. Learn to "educate" yourself about a particular subject before you make a comment about it. You will only be doing yourself a favor. Knowledge is power, Brother. Help yourself out. I am sorry for my rant. But people, please, have some backing to your statements.

Ya no kidding, its personal liberty if you want to take a shot of tequila, smoke a cigarette or hit a bong load you should have the right to do so. I have lived in 3 different countries and many states, I own a condo in downtown San Diego at the age of 25, and Im even the HOA president of the building. My lifetime resume goes on and on and on from Dive Master in Hawaii to acquiring my pilots license.
I have done all these things while smoking weed everyday of my life since I was 17. Granted Im not the average stoner but I dont think Im any more rare than the non-stoner that doesnt do anything with their life.
I have a hereditary condition that I have been prescribed marijuana for, without it I would live a much less productive life overcome by pain and nausea.
I had to go to work after I installed launcherpro, so when I hit the home button I made sense my default. Now I can't find how to make launcherpro come back when I hit the home button. Help?
Go to settings, press on applications, and then manage applications.
Find HTC Sense, press on it, and then press the Clear Defaults button.
Now when you press the Home button, you'll get the list of launcher/home applications again.
Thank you (this might be the most helpful site of all time haha)
Anyway I can get sense widgets to run on it? I really liked the htc sense standard clock with weather/weather animation.
Or a good free substitute. I'm good with either.

This if my first smartphone, I have a very limited knowledge of computers, and a friend recommended this site because he said it was a great place to learn how to get the full potential of my phone. I've looked through the past 6 pages and the only questions I've been able to answer have already been answered because they were basic "where's the link for" question. Explain to me how I'm supposed to contribute if I can't learn by asking...
well, you could start by learning to use GOOGLE to search for answers to these questions, and when you find something worthwhile, you can offer to share it here..
The best way to become proficient at ANYTHING is to research it and solve the problems yourself...you'll be amazed at how easy and gratifying that is, and, then, you will have something to share here with others..
"Sharing is caring" works BOTH ways..
Have you installed AppBrain on your phone? Have you gone to the website?
Have you searched for "replacement widgets" for EVO on Google?
The options go on and on, you just have to put a little mental effort into it, and you'll be amazed at what you'll find
Had YOU asked (instead of assuming) you would have known I did look and I didn't find any good replacements to the sense clock that were free (I'd like to know my options before I try something like beautiful widgets). Yes, I used google
and I've never heard of AppBrain.
And I hardly consider the THREE questions I've asked on this board to be detrimental to the community. I'm new to Android phones okay? I'm glad you're all big and bad because you know what you're doing. However, this was part of my "researching" that I should apparently be doing.
Oh, and only because your know it all attitude bothers me: the best way to learn something is to teach it.

In life there are givers and takers..which one are YOU?
Everything I learned about computers, cell phones, and everything electronic was done by hard work and research ON MY OWN..I bought a 386 computer many many years ago and sat up every night until 2 or 3am reading and practicing on it so I could learn and be able to advance my skill level..I've done the SAME thing with most other new technologies over the years, and, even though its tough at times, when you learn how to solve a problem on your own, you are on your way to true intelligence.
The problem with people like YOU is that the minute the going gets tough, you want someone else to do the hard work for you..
People on this board and every other board will always help someone out who tries to find answers on his own FIRST..
This is sad. Why are you so intent on making me feel like my life has been one giant virus, sapping others? That tells me you regret the fact that there's an easier way to do what you did, and you're jealous. And you shouldn't be, you will have a VASTLY greater knowledge of computers than I ever will because of the about of time you put into it. So...chill
While that's a beautiful story, that tells me one thing: you had/have WAAAY more free time than I did/do. I'm glad your morally opposed to someone asking for help, but the fact of the matter is you HAVE to ask for help when you have limited resources. Should poor african countries just "figure out" how to pay for TB medication when their economies are in ruins? Why can't they look to people with EXTRA resources for help GETTING THEM STATED? My limited resource ? Mine has been time. Balancing school, athletics, job for tuition, and squeezing out a social life robs me of free time. I don't have time to spend 5 hours a day researching about a phone. It'd be cool if I did...but I don't. So asking for help getting started is my plan. If you don't like that, then ignore me.
And again with the assumptions...child, if you knew HALF of what I've accomplished in my life you wouldn't say that "going gets tough" crap haha. My accomplishments have just been in a different field than yours

Fancy widget looks like the sense flip clock
http://i.imgur.com/fMjEg.png
I think it is free.
I saw that one! It was taken off the market though because htc was unhappy with how similar it was to their applications. Which sticks, because from reviews it seems to have been very good. Anyone have a .apk by any chance?
Edit: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OQS1ELEU
I have attached the .apk file of the Fancy Widget. I hope that will help.

do a little research and you will find plenty of replacements..
And, contribute something to the community instead of just asking for things..you'll be amazed at how much more helpful people will be if you don't just ASK for things all the time...

well, you could start by learning to use GOOGLE to search for answers to these questions, and when you find something worthwhile, you can offer to share it here..
The best way to become proficient at ANYTHING is to research it and solve the problems yourself...you'll be amazed at how easy and gratifying that is, and, then, you will have something to share here with others..
"Sharing is caring" works BOTH ways..

I am sorry I have to chime in here and stick up for the OP. You are just an ass. His questions were valid and didn't deserve your flamage. He admitted to not knowing everything thing and was asking for a little assistance. Its asses like you that mess up the experience for other users. If your so intelligent than what the hell are you doing on this board. I would rather have someone on here that is kind and helps when he can instead of some ass that thinks he is sooo smart that he has to put others down. Grow up and find something else to do and leave people alone. You are not needed here. You are completely useless.

teeter tottering.
any peopple coming from android in here? !
well, could you push me one way or the other please?
so basically, convince me to buy a hd7 and support winpho7.
I had an iPhone 4, then traded it in for the Captivate and then I sold the captivate for the focus and I am really pleased with the focus so far. My email syncs great, the GPS (which was a pain to have for the captivate) is spot on and accurate to 20ft on my phone. Xbox live is a plus and they have great games so far in the Marketplace some before android. The battery life is better than the captivate and I played Rocket Riot on my phone for 2 hours and only 15% battery used.
I really enjoy the stability of this phone and you should try it. You wont be disappointed.
thanks!
my pet peeves are no multitasking and wifi hotspot though.
i hate the lack of hackability, i do all kinds of my stuff to my phones .

i have read all three of those threads, and they do not completely answer my points, which ill bring up as my discussion goes on. so actually, i do have reason, and if it bothers you so much that i started another thread, ignore it please, for all of our sakes .!
i dont want flame city, i want a human to answer my questions. not to read someone elses. thats the point of a forum right? just saying.

You didn't really ask a question here, did you? What are you unsure about

i agree. I don't mean to sound rude in saying, but really at present you haven't asked anything that hasn't already been said in any of those 3 previous threads.
